Jin Yura, once just a friend’s younger sister, seemed like a perfectly suitable marriage partner, unnecessary of the bothersome affairs of romance.... more>>

“What should I call you now? ‘Honey’ perhaps?”

An unexpected minor commotion led to a contractual marriage between Baek I-hyun and Jin Yura.

“I guess ‘Honey’ it is.”

“Call me by my name, like you used to. Please.”

“Yura.”

Yura couldn’t help but hold her breath, wondering if her name had always sounded so sweet.

Was it I-hyun’s voice or her own ears that were the problem?

“Like this?” Yura struggled to look at I-hyun’s smiling eyes.

“Y-Yes.”

She turned her head away, biting her lip, as a deep shadow loomed over her face.

I-hyun had closed the distance in a flash, his head tilted slightly to match her gaze.

“Why, why are you doing this?”

Retreating step by step, Yura found herself blocked by the bookshelf, unable to move further.

I-hyun whispered closely in front of Yura, “I like ‘Honey’ better.”

With a soft, sultry sound, Yura’s voice broke.

She had never imagined that she would be kissing I-hyun.

His skillful lead and the hand wrapped around her waist felt so natural.

Yura’s head spun with I-hyun’s deep breaths enveloping her.

A two-year contract marriage, supposedly the ideal time for growing apart, began rather abruptly.

Could they really reach the final station of divorce unscathed? <<less

Teach me how to love.... more>>

A year into her marriage to her guardian’s son, she announced a divorce that was planned for her but unexpected for him.

Kangwoo then proposed a condition for divorce after a year.

“If you really want to divorce, be more ruthless.”

“Kangwoo…”

“Push me away mercilessly. Make it unbearable.”

His towering figure loomed close, his face shimmering.

The strong gaze, the heavy musk awakened her to the reality of who Cha Kangwoo was.

The stubborn unrequited love of eight years, her first love.

“I’ll endure it. Even if it means sacrificing myself.”

The reversal of roles had begun. <<less

As rumoured, the Fourth Prince, who had seemed frail and meek when he was berated during their first meeting, had a rather picky and eccentric personality.

“There is only one thing I want. Make a place for me to be by your side.”

It was a reunion after 6 years, and a marriage proposal.

“If I fulfil your wishes, what will you give me?”

“I’ll give you my everything.”

A knight who lost her family to an enemy spy, was praised as a war hero.

A half prince who inherited the blood of an enemy country, was ignored as a shame of the royal family.

The couple’s marriage caused a stir throughout the Kingdom.

* * *

‘There is no need for love between you and me.’

Reasonable distance.

Moderate affection.

A relationship where you know each other but nothing in detail.

“Adora, what’s really important is that I’m the only one who should know.”

It was like showing a beautifully wrapped surface.

The important part was cleverly hidden.

It was so pretty and so alluring that anyone could be tempted.

The man who reunited after six years was definitely different. <<less

Tyria Delucia possessed a villainess in a Rofan novel.
After 10 years of hard work, she was finally able to watch the original story's happy ending 'alive'.

"I can finally open my own flower shop!"

Tyria has now let go of all things related to the original story and wanted to enjoy the rest of her life in peace, opening the flower shop she's always dreamed of.
Then one day, she receives a large gift box and a letter from an unknown sender.......

"Please take care of him."

Inside the gift box was a large dog with jet black fur wearing a pink ribbon.

"Woof, woof!"

The dog was obviously Ludwin Rivolte, the second male lead who disappeared after the ending of the original novel!

’I want to touch him, I want to cuddle him!’

Tyria realized that the big dog in front of her was the blackened second male lead, but despite knowing this, she found it increasingly difficult to maintain her composure against its cute appearance and adorable gestures, melting away her rationality little by little.

***

"You should probably leave."
"What?"
"I'm telling you to go home, little Duke."
"How could I leave after you put a leash on me? I already belong to Tia."

Ludwin eventually returned to human form. Despite being a ‘blackened’ second male lead in the original setting, he pleaded with Tyria, placing the end of his leash in her hand, begging her to stay by his side.
Tyria, who only found him slightly cute as a dog, feels as though she’s been tricked by this arrogant man. Can Tyria truly find happiness in the new story that began after the ending? <<less

Hey, isn’t there something suspicious about this competition? <<less

I want to resign.... more>>

Yeon-woo regretted it.

Unlike her, who could never be calm, Taehan seemed unaffected, and especially when she realized she was pregnant.

“Secretary Seo, you’ve grown a lot.”

“What you think doesn’t matter to me.”

“How can it not? You slept with me. Three times, no, four including this morning.”

“Mr. President!”

Yeon-woo’s face flushed with a loud outcry.

In contrast, Taehan became more dignified, tilting his chin up.

“Thinking of eating and running, how ambitious.”

His eyes seemed to burn with dark flames.

“It can’t be like that.” Taehan tapped his head with a finger.

This story is fiction. The characters, ideas, and events in the work are unrelated to reality.... more>>

Some games require agreeing to this statement in order to play.

Even if it's not necessary for the game, the game typically begins with a similar disclaimer guiding the player through the precautions.

Although the advantage of a game is the 'immersion' that no other medium can match, starting with such a statement disrupts the immersion from the beginning despite everyone knowing the work is fiction.

There is no mandatory need to include such a disclaimer, so why do it?

It is likely to emphasize a fact that everyone should always remember.

[The purpose of fiction is not to dictate beliefs existing in reality.]

This message is for the developer themselves.

[Nothing in fiction can replace reality.]

This message is for the players who will share the journey of the work's story.

So.

Do you agree?

The man with tattered clothes and an old sword said, "So, I *can* kill."

He did not have any particularly memorable appearance.

He was likely not a well-known person, at least, not to the mercenary he was killing.

The important fact was that the man who had been stabbed by the worn-out sword was now dying in front of him.

"Ugh..."

When the man pulled the sword out of the mercenary, the mercenary's legs gave way, and he fell to his knees. He no longer had the strength to resist.

He wanted to raise his arm to swing his sword, but he didn't have the strength to do so. He gritted his teeth and wanted to cast a spell, but he lacked the focus to do so.

"Why... you... how?"

Thus, the mercenary chose to give up on resisting and opened his mouth to speak.

Why had the man suddenly attacked him? He had only seen him collapse and moved him to a nearby cave.

What kind of person, what kind of thoughts had led him to do this as soon as he woke up?

The mercenary was so curious that he asked the question.

"How fascinating."

The man stroked his chin as he stared at the dying mercenary.

The sight of the man in his worn-out clothes pondering was somewhat terrifying.

Soon, as if he had reached a conclusion, the man broke his silence.

"I never knew I could attack an NPC. Is that how the game is made?"

"...What?"

The mercenary couldn't understand the man's words.

NPC, not knowing an attack would work, game. He couldn't make sense of any of the words the man said.

Having spent his whole life living as a mercenary according to his "setting," he could never understand what the man was saying.

'No, you must respond properly. Properly—'

But he couldn't continue his next words or even think about the meaning of his response, and the mercenary's consciousness began to fade.

A killing driven by nothing but curiosity, with no reason.

That was the first death experienced by NPC Aiden Oliver. <<less

That’s why she couldn’t help but love him.

Even after knowing that it was false tenderness.

Even after knowing that all he wanted was her body.

“Bioust, the savior of my life. I really… like you.”

Even after realizing that she was destined to die soon. <<less

“Livia.”

Low and deep voice rang in her ears.

“….Lucian?!”

Surprised by the voice of someone who could never be heard here, Livia jumped up from her seat.

No, he can’t possibly be here right now, can he?

Lucian stood before Livia, who was blinking at the unbelievable reality before her.

“It’s really hot here……”

“You, you…….”

“Why?”

“How’s your engagement?”

“…… I’m not doing it.”

What does he mean?

“Why aren’t you doing it?”

“So you don’t have to.”

Lucian, who smiled at her, took off his black coat. He proceeded to put it on Livia’s shoulder, who was wearing a top that clearly exposed her shoulders.

“I’m not getting engaged.”

He added in a low voice as he started to button the coat.

“Neither are you, of course.”
