I found myself reincarnated in a twisted novel where the monstrous male lead locks up the heroine. Worse yet, I’m the third candidate for his bride.... more>>

And to top it off, this happened before the fourth bride candidate—the actual heroine—arrived. In the original story, my character was supposed to have died by jumping off to avoid marrying him!

Some might say I should just disappear to make way for the male lead and heroine to meet, but…

'Hmph! Don't make me laugh!'

I’m determined to survive, grow old peacefully, and be surrounded by kids and grandkids. But first, it looks like I’ll have to marry this so-called 'monster' of a man…

"You must be fearless. Do you even know what’s under these clothes before talking so big?"

"Amazing abs?"

"…..."

"A broad chest? A lean, defined waistline? Or maybe…"

The 'monster' duke’s face was so flustered, he instinctively checked to make sure his buttons were still fastened. His notorious reputation that kept others from even daring to make eye contact suddenly seemed laughable.

'That modesty… I kinda like it.'

*

But not everything could be solved by enjoying a sweet (if slightly chaotic) honeymoon with my handsome yet reserved monstrous husband.

Because in the novel’s original ending, the male lead turned into a monster, killed everyone—including the heroine—and brought about the end of the world!

"God! You’re watching, right? I’ll stop the world from ending, so could you just give me a hint or two?"

I’d even tried seeking divine oracle at an abandoned chapel after learning my character was a saintess candidate…

"Why is this showing up here?"

Echinecia Roaz was an ordinary Countess.... more>>

Until she suffered the cruel fate of being manipulated by a magical sword and killing all her loved ones.

[This miracle won’t happen twice. So, do your best and be happy.]

She turned her time back to change her own fate.

However, the root cause of the problem has not disappeared, and she is still not free from the past.

“I never talked to the Commander, how did you know me? I…… Did I offend you in some way?”

“There was no such thing. It was just that you stood out from the crowd and caught my eye.”

“Stood out? Is it because of my hair?”

“…… No, it was my personal interest.”

A man who has answers to her past and a woman who wants to erase that same past.

Will she be able to overcome her fate and become happy? <<less

After eight years, Duke Erte returned to his homeland as a hero.... more>>

He returned with glory and honor, but all he truly wanted was revenge. Revenge for the wife that no one remembers. “Rise”, who threw down her life to protect him right until the very end.

“Will you help me?”

And for the sake of his revenge, he needed a woman. A woman to prove his status as an of age ‘adult’ so that he could trample upon the pride of those stuck-up nobles.

In that way, this woman was a good fit.

“Be my woman.”

She was a refugee who had lost her home, working to raise her daughter alone.

The only thing about her that resembled his wife was her name, “Rise”.

But the longer he spent with her, the more the young Duke began to realize something. Their resemblance didn’t end with just their name.

That was when he thought of one possibility, one that he had been denying this entire time.

She might actually be his wife. <<less

Seo Jae-Yi is an S-Class Esper with the power to control fire. However, for 10 years, she hasn't been able to find a compatible Guide, leading to a terminal diagnosis.... more>>

"Let's at least achieve my dream before I die!"

With that thought, she impulsively opens a flower shop. But alas, her uncontrollable pyrokinesis leads to flowers bursting into flames and the shop catching fire. As she tearfully cleans up the piles of ashes day after day...

“This shop has a rather... enthusiastic way of greeting its customers.”

“Y-You were so handsome, I thought you were a flower and tried to water you…”

The man she accidentally drenched turns out to be her perfectly matched Guide. Not only that, but their compatibility rate is an unbelievable 93%! This man might be the key to extending her life!

But something feels strange. He’s a complete stranger, yet why does she feel this sense of longing when she looks at him?

***

"Why haven't you asked me to Guide you?"

Baek Juwon closed the distance between them, his voice husky. Jae-Yi flinched as his large hand reached out to gently caress her wound.

"I can make this disappear in an instant."

He whispered sweetly, gazing directly into her eyes.

"Let me take care of everything. Just stay still."

His voice alone was enough to paralyze her. Baek Juwon's eyes glittered dangerously as a wave of exhilarating Guiding washed over Jae-Yi, leaving her breathless. <<less

One day, I opened my eyes and found myself in a wuxia novel.... more>>

I became a female servant in the Sacheon Dang Clan, a family of poison and assassination!

Wash clothes stained with Dang Clan’s poison? Clean the training hall where they trained with the poison?

What if I get poisoned and die? What? This is the law of the strongest player?!

…Aren’t they crazy people? Please save me!

However, as I survive day by day, the main characters in the novel come to me.

“Child. Would you like to learn martial arts from me?”

The poison king, Dang Jung.

“You are not just anyone. When I get back, I will… send you an official letter.”

The young lord of the Namgoong Family, Namgoong Hwi.

“Young Miss. It would be best for you to follow me obediently.”

Jinseong, the future number one swordmaster.

…I, will I be able to survive safely under the strongest player? <<less

Heeran, the granddaughter of Mazon, lived a life of luxury and enjoyment. One day, she was brutally murdured by her stepmother.... more>>

‘Fortunately, I came back.’

A tooth for a tooth. An eye for an eye.

She dreamed of revenge for her stepmother, saying she would have her pay for her life.

“I’m happy because of you!”

But she gave up revenge for the nanny who truly cared about her because she thought she wouldn’t be touched if she just lived quietly.

She believed she could keep this little happiness.

‘But…’

“I guess I looked to easy, nanny.”

Heeran smiled faintly, turning her back to the grave.

“Now it’s time to go back to being a wicked villain.” <<less

I became a home tutor teaching the young half-siblings of the male lead.... more>>

The original plot is simple.

It’s a typical contract marriage story where the female lead threatens the duke to avoid an unwanted matchmaking.

The problem here is that the male lead’s weakness is his depraved behavior that led to the extermination of his entire family.

“Tell me, Miss Margaret. What is my intention that caught your attention?”

It’s unfair that I’m a reincarnated extra at best.

What an unfortunate choice of roles, having to give up my head when the lord of the manor takes control of the family.

I suppose running away could solve the problem, but…

“My lord, there is only one thing I want. Don’t kill Cecilia and Cedric.”

As a professional, I should save the children first.

—

“Miss Adriana has told me that she knows I killed my father. And that she will keep it quiet if I marry her.”

Then he asked, in an uneven voice.

“Miss Margaret, shall I go through with this marriage or not?”

“Do it. She will be the love of your life.”

Estella replied meekly.

It wasn’t the answer he’d hoped for, he realized, and his voice turned mu*derous.

“So you’re telling me I’m going to have to share a bed with a blackmailer?”

…It was a refreshing revelation, considering the original. <<less

A temporal sorcerer under the protection of the White Forest.... more>>

A villainess unlike any other in the history of the Bertel Empire.

All these terms referred to Ariletti Cadiz.

‘But I was beyond foolish.’

She had devoted her life to serving the princes, only to be betrayed twice.

Anyway, even this life was on borrowed time.

She had tried to quietly close her eyes in the desolate wilderness…

“There’s someone over there! They seem small, like a child?”

“Go closer and check. Is she alive or dead?”

“Yes, sir.”

She was found by the man she killed in her previous life?

And… she became younger?!

* * *

Dragged into the unwanted territory of Hezeit…

There are too many problems—way too many!

Constantly plagued by threats from the bullies.

Sinking deep into severe poverty.

Unable to utilize the abundant nature around.

“Hezeit… No. It can’t be like this!”

She offered a little help since they were in a tight spot.

Actually, this place was a paradise?!

Moreover, these people, their hearts were so kind, like pushovers.

[Don’t be sick, Baby. If you get better quickly, Uncle will take you on an Arctic expedition!]
[The snow has stopped, Little Master. Thank you.]
With these stubborn fools by her side, Ariletti might just be able to exact revenge on the other two f*cking princes.

So, she drew all the information and knowledge she acquired from her past two lives, devising a revenge plan.

More wicked, more sinister, more relentless. More vicious than ever before!

Will she succeed in avenging her past lives and make the 3rd prince the emperor? <<less

However, she gave up on returning because her loved ones cried and clung to her just before the gate that opened once every 100 years.

* * *
Three years later, All those who held onto Dana have changed.

“I have no intention of breaking our engagement. But I do plan to marry her as well.” Her fiancé, shamelessly committing adultery,

“It was just a joke, you know? I didn’t think you’d actually not go back.” Her younger brother confessed he held onto her as a prank.

“Did someone tie you up and prevent you from leaving?” Her cousin mocked her irresponsibly.

“The dimensional gate has closed. Dana, you can’t leave now! So, adapt quietly to this world!”

But Dana knows. She knows how to end this possession and return. Briefly saddened by the betrayal of her love, Dana burns with rage, preparing for revenge and escape.

"On the Moonlight Garden-!"... more>>

"White evening primroses are in full bloom -!”

It was a strange succession ceremony in which the strongest member of the royal family succeeds the throne.

After being poisoned, she returned five years into the past, and played the part of a crazy b*tch in order to survive.

Seriously, was surviving by simply looking like the weakest not enough?

The crazy princess, with no power or backing, was about to die, but a suspicious wizard suddenly appeared before her.

“What should I do to get your kiss?”

“A deal. If you help me, I'll kiss you.”

“Good. I have no intention of letting you die in the hands of anyone besides me."

I feel like I entered the tiger's den while trying to escape the wolves…

Is it really okay if I make this deal?

I thought I had been abandoned, ... more>>

But I was actually the child that the Namgoong family had been searching for.

It wasn’t until I was killed by the Blood Demon, whom I had called “teacher,” that I learned the truth. When I awoke again as a thirteen-year-old child, I decided to return to the Namgoong family.

I didn’t seek to be recognized as family.

I only wanted to prevent the Namgoong family from falling apart as it had before.

“This is the jewelry, silk, gold bars, and elixirs that the family head has gifted to you.”

“Here, little one. This is a congratulatory gift for your return.”

As soon as I was recognized as the lost granddaughter of the Namgoong family,

I gained delicious food, fine clothes, gold and silver treasures, and a high-quality sword!

I also gained a grandfather and a father who cried and laughed for me.

But what was that strange, tingling feeling in my chest every time that happened?

In order to protect the smiles of those I had once killed,

and to preserve this warm and ticklish sensation for as long as I could,

I was determined to change the bloody future that awaited me, unlike my previous life…

**

Namgoong Mucheon’s face darkened.

‘Is this child truly raised to be an assassin?’

The sharp killing intent and the sword techniques essential for an assassin were reflected in her life, as if they were embedded in her very being.

‘Damn brat.’

Anger surged within Namgoong Mucheon.

He restrained himself from cursing aloud in front of his granddaughter, muttering in his mind instead.

‘How dare they raise my granddaughter as an assassin?’

The blue energy surrounding Namgoong Mucheon grew even stronger. <<less

“Divorce…?”

“His Majesty seems to want you to marry the Duchess of Lancaster, and The Empress….She wants it too…I’m just going to be someone in your path, and I just can’t help myself.”

To the Duke family who happened to become my new family,

I ended up hiding a lot of things.

From the flashy title of ‘Wizard Who Was a Child Soldier Who Ran Away From the Magic Kingdom’

Although it was unintentional, even my gender…?

“What kind of affection to call me Old Duke! Just call me Grandpa!”

“…Can a fairy also be a younger sibling?”

My family who loves me without even knowing my secret.

However, at some point, I started to feel anxious.

‘If they find out that everything I did was a lie, will people still care about me the same way then?’

“You truly do not remember who I am?”

“I only ask once. I was told that you made medicine to help with my insomnia. ”

Todd grabbed the tea bag out of his pocket and threw it on the table. The contents of the tea bag weren’t medicine, but instead, it was filled with the herbal tea leaves she gifted him a long time ago.

“Let me make an offer. Gather your things and come back to the estate. I’ll make you my official pharmacist.”

Hayer, her husband’s younger brother and her first love, came to her, who remained alone on the throne where even the king had fled.

“Can you find the North Gate?”

Iris, the heir to the throne, nodded.

And the moment she crossed the North Gate through a severe snowstorm.

She realized. That she was back six years ago.

“If something changes beyond the North Gate, don’t love me then. Never.”

And knowing that she had the opportunity to save the man who died for her.

Normally, one would be confused in a moment like this, but…she was familiar with this situation, with this world.

Because she had once lived here and been mu*dered by unidentified wizards.

“I don’t want to die again!”

Eureia, who knew this world and was a hard-working adaptable person, wanted to regain her top position at the Merchant Guild, which was once hers, and get rid of her debts.

Seven years ago, she, the head of the Cheshire business suddenly disappeared, and her men now once again gathered at Eureia’s side.

“You look a lot like someone I know.”

“You seemed to be able to see through me just like her.”

“I feel uneasy. I’m afraid the master will like him more than me.”

Eureia, surrounded by obsessive men, approached the shocking truth that killed her seven years ago. <<less

My execution had been decreed, and thus, I met my demise.... more>>

"To kill you as a villain would be a bit of a waste."

‘Gerun, that son of a b*tch...!’

When I opened my eyes, it was ten years ago. And in a different world!

*

Since I've already come back to life, there’s nothing I can do about it.

To avoid repeating the foolish past,

"Give me everything from here to there."
"...You’re going to buy all of this?"

I used that enemy-like guy as my wallet,

"Well, I heard from my friends that my dear granddaughter likes shopping so much, and that you act cute, too."
"It's just because I need a wallet.
"......"

"Father, I'm going to attend a party. Can you escort me?"
"...Of course. But are you alright with me?"
"Yes. As long as you dress up nicely."
Even the once-broken family relationship was splendidly restored.

"...If I say yes, I like you, would that make things difficult for you, Roxelyn?"
"Then, how about we date for just six months?"
"...Pardon?"
The business of love, which I had once already given up on, had also started perfectly.

It was the perfect future I had hoped for...

"Rox, you also have an Abyss."

Even to someone like me who thought I was incompetent, power awakened within me.
As such...

Hilia Halos was a woman who was colder, more selfish, and more wicked than anyone else.

Hilia was sure she would be indifferent. About leaving the child, and about abandoning the man who brought her excitement.

“Mother, you don’t, hab to, lub, Riche. Riche gonna, only come, sometime. Riche will, lub you more……”

She was actually indifferent.

She would have been in the future, as well.

If only the dirt-covered child didn’t just appear out of nowhere after four years and told her such a thing.

“So……!”

Tears dripped down the child’s cheeks.

Hilia backed away from the child, who was running towards her with arms wide open.

She could not be a good parent, nor could she love anyone.

“My baby, there are things in the world you just can’t love.”

So, after leaving that single comment, she turned away.

“There is none. Since the gist of the will has decided that Miss Catyshia is the only heiress.”

“I refuse—”

“Excluding the inheritance tax, there is cash and a personal vault at the central bank.”

“Gasp…!”

“As well as the net profit that comes from the Artem, Liden, and Gelpor territories.”

Just what are you seeing people as?
