A bright future was guaranteed to her.
But only if she could graduate.... more>>

Ariel is a mischievous kid from Fitzsimmons Academy, who enjoys a daily life full of pranks, magic, or both. With no intention of studying, her only goal is to graduate and inherit her parents' merchant guild.

The graduation banquet finally arrived.

While looking at the mess caused by the prank of her childhood friend Kyle, who is a formidable troublemaker, Rosemary, the "Princess of the Student Council" who was taking control of the cool boys in the academy, suddenly appears and pours out inexplicable resentments.

“Is it a bug? The difficulty couldn't be this high. Kyle Villard is just a sub-character!”

Bug? Sub character? What the hell are you talking about? Her vision went dark.

When she opened her eyes, she was back to her life nine months ago.

5th grade started again, but Ariel's daily life, for someone who only wanted to graduate, began to change little by little. <<less

Hundreds of years ago, in the heart of the city, a gate appeared. In a world where neither animals nor humans existed, ferocious organic beings called “creatures” emerged. After an accident, S-class guide Sawol, who became a half-creature, half-human ‘creman’, hides this fact and continues to live.... more>>

“Sawol, listen to me when I’m speaking nicely. I don’t want to threaten you either.”
“What you’re doing is already a threat.”
“Please, just keep your mouth shut if you find out.”

Instead of protecting her secret, Esper Yugeon, who demands to be paired with her, has a reason for Sawol to avoid him. As a creman, she needs to periodically feed on blood, and Yugeon’s scent is too sweet to resist. Eventually, in order to keep her secret, she decides to be a pair with Yugeon.

“I’ve seen you as a woman for quite some time now.”
“But back then…”
“Back then, I thought I shouldn’t get closer to you.”

Hangyul, Her first love, which she once distanced herself from, begins to approach. He was Yugeon’s older brother. Strangely, as they decide to work together to protect her secret, an incident occurs where only guides are targeted, and strange things start happening around Sawol.

Will Sawol be able to keep her secret until the end? <<less

Kaon Ferdinand, the second son of a prestigious family of knights is betrothed to Alessia Ingelos, a mage from the family who has been their enemy for generations.... more>>

“You never know, maybe the young lady of Ingelos is so beautiful that you’ll fall for her at first sight.”

“To the lady of Ingelos? Me? Don’t be ridiculous.”

Kaon scoffs at the idea, but when he finally meets Alessia, she turns out to be his ideal type.

“I know it’s a bit late, but would you like to dance with me?”

“It would be my honor.”

Contrary to his initial plans to just play it cool, Kaon finds himself genuinely drawn to her.

“Are you really not a mage?” Then, “Aren’t you just deceiving me, no…all of us?”

He dreamed a lot; however, everything turned out to be a lie.

To uncover Alessia's secret, he would also have to reveal his own, which he had been hiding until now.

“Will you take care of me in the future, Kaon?”

So begins his awkward cohabitation with Alessia, his first love, who turned out to be a deceiver. <<less

Nadia Ingram was a Duke’s daughter who just wanted to be loved. At the behest of her family, she entered an arranged marriage with the arrogant and self-indulgent Marquis Edwin R. Elantz.... more>>

However, as she was trying to come to terms with her new life as a married woman, she somehow reunited with her ex-lover, Asheel Khurshid, who was Edwin’s knight.

This marriage, which she had wanted to be peaceful and uneventful, grew turbulent in the presence of the two men in her life.

* * *

“Don’t tell me you just got back from rolling around in bed with some other bastard? You smell like c*m.”

“…Th-that isn’t the case at all!”

Inside her dress, Asheel’s fluids trickled down to her knees, but Nadia still firmly denied it. She almost broke out in cold sweat as she pretended that nothing was amiss.

It was a relief that she was good at controlling her expressions, but she continued to avoid the persistent gaze directed at her, hoping that he would just drop the subject and let it go.

“Then, is it mine?”

He drew close to whisper into her ear, dirty words leaving his languid tongue as he teased her with a hint of sadistic glee.

“You must have had fun until early morning, hm? It’d be nice if you could make sure to handle it properly so we won’t need to worry about any illegitimate children. How are you doing now, is it leaking out?”

Nadia felt the blood drain from her face.

—

▸ Edwin R. Elantz – the most powerful man in the Empire; surrounded by many bad rumors after gaining the trust of the Emperor; would do however as he pleased; an apathetic-looking eye candy who actually has a twisted personality; uses his eloquence well

▸ Asheel Khurshid – a commoner knight; with his skills alone, he managed to rise to the position of deputy commander of the best knight order in the Empire; quiet and calm; rarely loses his temper, but he definitely would if someone pushed his buttons

▸ Nadia Ingram – hails from a ducal family on the verge of bankruptcy; suffered from a childhood devoid of warmth and affection; unlike how she appears while pretending to be arrogant, truthfully she’s naive and vulnerable

▸ “I’m a greedy man. I have no plans of sharing you at all. That’s why… you’d better consider your actions very carefully.” <<less
