“You’d better not dream of being acknowledged as my wife. I would never have a successor with the daughter of Balazit.” ... more>>

Hearing that, Nadia almost said, “I feel the same way.”

Thank you, Marquis. I hope you keep your words.

***

“You said you had no intention of sharing the bed with me.”

“…”

“So for the sake of a successor, you have no choice but to bring in a concubine…”

Crack.

Nadia’s head turned at the sound of something cracking.

Then, a crack is seen in a corner of the table where her husband was.

I mean, why was that table breaking all of a sudden? <<less

Lindel is the youngest vice commander of the Imperial guards who had everything but love.... more>>

I made one wrong wish and started vomiting blood.

It was just an aftereffect of the contract. But the problem was that other people saw me vomiting blood.

I tried to fix things up but for some reason, it gets worse and worse.

Now I was a lover of the century who wished to protect the Emperor even at the risk of death.

“How long have you endured this alone?”

“Don’t worry, I’m okay.”

“I’d rather you cry! Beg to live, be angry!”

“…..Don’t die, please.”

No, I’m not going to die! <<less

I became a maid in a horror game.
And, here in this mansion, I was confined together with the male lead, who’s trying to escape. My role here was to guide him around the mansion and to give him penalties once in a while.
I just need to fulfill my NPC duties until the male lead’s playthrough is over.... more>>

“Once I get out, I’ll have you locked up the same way.”

This male lead was kicking up quite the racket though.

So I decided to help him escape as soon as possible.

“Let’s eat, Dietrich.”
“That’s a potion. It’ll get you healed up right away.”
“The escape hint is right over there…”

I stuffed him well enough so he had enough energy for the next part of the game.
I gave him a potion to use in case he got hurt.
I also gave him some hints to solve the problem.

Then, we can get out now, right?

However.

“Not sure. I don’t know the answer.”

Look here, smart guy. What exactly do you mean by that?

…The male lead doesn’t want to leave the mansion.

“If you’re not leaving, then I will!”

I shouted in a fit of anger. At the thought of having to keep looking at this hateful guy’s face, I was justifiably annoyed.

“Is this truly the kind of place that you can get out of?”

As he said this, the look in his eyes darkened sharply.

“Just so we’re clear, I have absolutely no intention of getting out of here.”
“What?”
“And you’re not leaving either.”

How the hell did it come to this? <<less

I possessed the female lead’s twin sister.... more>>

The sickly female lead is in a ‘limited time’ situation where she dies without being able to connect with the male lead because of her arranged marriage with her mu*derer, the villainous sub-male lead.

I felt sorry for the heroine, so I married the villain instead of her. I would just wait for the right opportunity later and then get a divorce!

Well.

This man who was said to be a mu*derer… was… .

“… … Dream of me, wife.”

I actually dreamt of myself with a blushing face.

Why are you so cute?

Why are you so handsome?

‘Alright, I acknowledge you as my husband.’

By the way.

Why is the residence of my husband, the prince, so poor?

Even the vassals are ignoring my husband?

Ahem. I can’t stand still and watch.

They’re all dead. <<less

Four months into marriage. My husband’s frequent outings became suspicious. ... more>>

He leaves at dawn every morning and returns late at night, which raises questions. However, there was nothing strange. He just works hard and comes home.

We were supposed to stay out of each other’s personal lives since it was a contract marriage anyway…….

Why do I sometimes feel uncomfortable around him?

“The emperor is still not married.”

“That’s a big deal.”

“I hope you can quickly abandon me and marry someone else…….”

My husband Dale is an honorable mercenary well aware of my situation. I hired him on a 364-day marriage contract to try and break off her marriage to the Emperor.

Dale is unlike the Emperor, being pure, innocent, and affectionate.

One day, when I thought “You should marry a man like this.”

A problem arose.

***

Eventually, the day came when I had to return to my noble family.

However, I decided to return to Dale and request that he remain faithful to me.

“You can’t just open the door for someone you don’t know because I’m not there.”

“Yes.”

“Even if you’re close, don’t lend money carelessly.”

“I’ll definitely remember.”

“Don’t even cry because you miss me.”

Ah…… don’t want to part with Dale.

But I have no choice but to go to the Duke’s, and I’m barely able to keep from falling.

“Your Majesty, the magic circle for the portal is complete.”

“Let’s go.”

She was completely unaware of what was going on in the background. <<less

I found myself transmigrated into a novel full of obsession and tragedy, but I didn’t care one bit. I was neither the heroine nor the villainess; I was just a passing noblewoman. I felt a bit of remorse for the heroine, who would rescue a child and suffer at the hands of the villain, but the male lead would save her in the end, anyway.... more>>

I had nothing to worry about in my life.

“This is insane! Are you crazy, Brother?!”

Until my lunatic older brother came to me and said, “I have a gift for you!” and brought THAT child!

“Doesn’t he resemble that stray cat you used to like when you were little?”

Whatever! Take him back right now!

* * *

‘It’s fine, as long as I don’t get caught…’

I pretended to help the villain, who was madly looking for his missing younger brother, while I secretly kept an eye on him.

I was determined not to hand the child over to a human who wanted to use his little brother as a pawn in war, but…

“Rayna, tell me.”

His grip on my ankle grew stronger.

“Why do you keep lying to me and hiding Calyx, my little brother?” <<less

For the sisters who are perfect from head to toe, the only blemish is me.
So I am used to a life of being ignored and humiliated by my sisters…... more>>

One day, my sisters became strange.

Running late at night in their pajamas, hugging me, crying, and trying to stay with me.
Worrying about my health.
With bright smiles and worried gazes towards me, it’s so unfamiliar.
They are not the sisters I know.

“From now on, only trust your big sisters. Let's live happily with big sisters forever."

There's no way my sisters would say things like this to me...?
...As expected, my sisters are strange!

***

In the temple where I run away from my strange sisters, I meet a man who seems familiar even though it’s the first time we meet.
He is my first friend, a precious person, and a gentleman that I fall in love with.
I hope my heart will connect with him.
Until the man has some of his parents’ mementos.

"Daisy, unfortunately, I've never said we met for the first time."

He looks at me who is confused and whispers in my ears.

"You're afraid you won't remember. Don't worry too much."

A very sweet and calm voice.

“I am confident in waiting.”

And it’s a terribly kind, distant answer. <<less

A fake saintess born by misconstruing the oracle.... more>>

The evil woman who was abandoned by the deceitful family who deceived the empire and died while committing all kinds of evil because of envy towards the real saintess… That was my role in the original novel.

After learning what happened in the book, I decided. I can’t live in this country because it’s dirty and rude. The only answer is asylum! There should be no criminal charges for a life of adventure, so I’ll just live a good life aiming for the flowery path. Nobody kills anyone, nobody is jealous…

However, something is strange.

Every day I hear news about accidents happening to the extras who mocked me and originally died at my hands. But I didn’t do it this time…?? <<less

Inside the wuxia novel which the male lead fully seized, I possessed the male lead’s distant ancestor.... more>>

In order to be faithful to the role of supporting male lead, I worked my bones off and built the best family.

After that, I closed my eyes comfortably. However—

“What?! Did you say that my family is doomed?”

When I opened my eyes again, it was 300 years later.

My family, which I had reestablished so tenaciously, was on the verge of collapsing.

Furthermore, the disgraceful political marriage of the male lead, whom I devoted my whole life to support, with the original villainess was ahead.

However, the biggest problem was…

“Why did I become that villainess!?”

***

Now that I married the male lead, I decided to make my ruined family stand again.

If the original female lead appears later, wouldn’t he let me stealthily slide out?

That’s what I thought, however…

“Our Housemistress, isn’t she a chance given by God to revive the North Sea Ice Palace?”

“I never thought that Housemistress would think about us like this… I was really touched.”

…Why do you all look so affectionate like that?

Moreover,

“Sometimes, I feel like Wife is too good for me.”

The male lead’s gaze which was staring at me sparkled with endless obsession.

“… Still, I don’t want to let you go.”

No, I mean, the original female lead has appeared, right? Why are you like this to me!? <<less

“We’re getting a divorce.”... more>>

Vendia’s eyes slowly throbbed at the sound of divorce from her husband’s mouth.

As expected, Vendia Rose was confident.

Due to the nature of regret novels, if the female lead asks for a divorce, the male lead’s rehabilitation and love will begin from then on.

But what’s this?

They’re really getting divorced? He has to think hard! He has to be obsessed! This doesn’t make sense!

Although she couldn’t believe it, everything went well.

Yes, Vendia was really divorced.

Wasn’t I the female lead of a regret novel?

***

“I don’t have any regrets either. I’m going to live a good life!”

Vendia came down to the Rims territory.

She wanted to take care of the mansion she got from her ex-husband and live as a building owner with the monthly rent she received, but,

“When are you going to install the fireplace? I can’t sleep because it’s cold!”

Isn’t there a tenant who makes a fuss about the fireplace in the middle of summer.

“M-Master, shall I ask?”

Won’t she end up hiring a suspicious manager who isn’t good at work.

What else, this time? mu*der in my mansion?

At the time when her head was hurting because of the situation that was running wild and crazy. A man approached her.

“It’s been a long time. Wife.”

Denros Kalvermer. It was her ex-husband. <<less
