Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Unfortunately, I was reincarnated as a nuisance character in a horror game.

I have one goal.

I need to find an escape gate to avoid the demons living in the abandoned hotel, but…

“S-Sister… They say a monster has appeared. Are you going to leave me alone?”
“Sister, what on earth are you looking for?”
“I want to stay next to you.”
“Sister!”

The final boss, who approached me pretending to be a child, never thinks of falling from me.

[Holloway opens the door to check if you’re there.] [Holloway breathes a sigh of relief after confirming that the ‘comedian’ is in good hands.]

Evelin’s eyebrows twitched as the system windows appeared one after another.

“…Is he crazy?”

Who is the comedian?

Evelin thought she was raising Holloway that well.

And she soon realizes that it was arrogance.

“If you want, I’ll even lick your feet.”

So don’t get out of here, Evelin.

Holloway kissed Evelin’s knee.
The eyes toward Evelin were filled with mad obsession.

The one who was raised, was herself.

Our poor FL is a typical noble who washed up onshore with her companions after their party boat sunk in a typhoon. What makes her different is that the second they encounter the large, scary-looking hotel, she's barraged with memories of her past life and how this is a game she once played called, "A Child's Secret". It's a horror game from her past life notorious for its gorgeous art and hell-mode difficulty. Nobody ever successfully completed it.

At that same time, a system window pops up, not only confirming that... more>> this is a game but warning her that she can't tell anyone about it. When she tries, she vomits blood.

Desperate not to enter this deathtrap, she runs away, but the game engages a special deterrent mode to keep her from escaping: bringing her face to face with the game's final boss, disguised as a child named Holloway. Even then, she's determined to die from the cold and pouring rain rather than endure one of the game's painful endings, but two of her companions (the ML and a childhood friend who used to have a crush on her) come up, question the child, and then knock her out to take her and the child with them to the "safe and dry" hotel.

Strangely, Holloway sticks with her even when she wakes (he's suspicious of her actions at first) and thus begins the long chain of mini-quests and subquests designed to either kill off all of the characters or aid them in their pursuit of the escape gate.

Our MC's role as "comedian" is cemented pretty early:

Spoiler

After the game points her towards a spear for her to use against a pair of rampaging monsters (and limits her actions saying that she only has five chances to hit a vital point) she takes aim to throw it at a monster, slips on rubble, and accidentally gores the monster in a hidden vital point in its leg. It's stunned for five minutes.

Our MC is preoccupied at this time with game windows and trying to get away, but Holloway -breaks character- and laughs long and loud at the events unfolding before him. He sticks with her after that, of course.

[collapse]

I'm only a few chapters in because Wook's Teahouse has shut down and I'm having to translate it myself from Kakaopage but, when the other reviewers say the MC is relatable, gosh they're not kidding. She's not a Mary Sue or a White Lotus: things don't always go her way and she's not kind, loving, or forgiving of everyone around her. She's just scared and DONE with it all. She wants out. And, the entire time, she's got a ticking time bomb at her side in the form of Holloway, and the game keeps brightly informing her that if she acts suspicious of Holloway, or he gets suspicious of her, her chances of being mu*dered by him increase. (Holloway does NOT know this is a game.) The system loves to throw numbers her way.

But, hey, somewhere along the way she gained a 0.1% favorability rating from him, so that's a plus, right?

-----------

Made it to the end! Wow. This was, in some ways, your typical "I tamed the tyrant" storyline but, not only did they keep you on your toes as to whether she would succeed or not, they extended the plotline by giving us an over-arching mystery about how and why our demonic immortals became imprisoned in the hotel, who was involved, and how their curse can be broken. At one point I took a break from reading this because I'd expected the story to be over once the humans escaped from the hotel and island, but that was really just the beginning of the unraveling the tangled mess of events that occurred in the distant past.

There are a number of side stories after the novel's conclusion, and there's even a short, alternate ending where she did NOT succeed in taming Holloway and it's just heartbreaking.

So this is my first time writing a review but I decided to write one because this novel is really fun and interesting! To be honest, the plot of the novel is pretty unique and cool since it's not your basic tropes. The MC is also likeable, funny, and all the other characters are interesting. Overall, the setting, characters, and plot are definitely not like your basic transmigration novel so I really recommend it! I personally found myself WAY addicted to this novel because of how much it left me... more>> wanting more. The novel is so unique, it left me wanting more.

So, please read it! I promise it'll be such an interesting and fun rollercoaster!

This is an edit of mine to update how the novel is doing, (on chapter 40) I'll actually write some of how the character are, the plot is etc. It may contain spoilers 🚨‼️🚨‼️🚨‼️

So the FL is stuck in a horror game and she tries her best to get out of the hotel she's stuck in using her knowledge, of how Holloway, I think the ML is the real boss, just disguised as a child. The ML throughout the story turns in an adult sometimes but Evelyn can't look at him since supposedly his looks will make humans go crazy.
There is also like 5/4 main demons in the hotel that for example represent hate or sorrow. Some of them target the FL in the game since she practically has like the ML in her hands.

Now about the system she has and other characters! The system is so goofy it gives her the most random options in the most dangerous situations. Like for instance, dancing goofily or saying the most concerning stuff. All these options just make the story more funny and make the FL moree likeable for me XD. There is also other characters besides the demon and the ML who FL is stuck with in the hotel. I don't remember their names but they all know the FL. They're not very helpful though, except sometimes, they're mainly a hindrance/burden. Besides this, mainly everyone in the story sees the FL as a crazy funny yet helpful person since she helps and gets out of dangerous situations. Overall my rating is

15/10 FL

15/10 ML

15/10 Plot

10/10 Characters overall

20/10 relatability and comedy <<less

Female Lead Evelin: Honestly hilarious and relatable. She is smart enough to think things through despite what little time she has to think about it with the time limit of the game. Her determination although she is scared makes her likable since she really wants to survive and at times uses the male lead to survive which is more funny than irritating. Always is doing her best not to make the Holloway angry or make his possessive, obsessive or jealousy levels rise.

Male Lead Holloway: His affection levels go up and... more>> down throughout the story while with the female lead, he is although not always fond of her never really think of offing her when in a bad mood unlike the other characters in the game. He is in child form but in some chapters appears in his full adult form to the female lead. He finds her funny like a comedian due to her actions that she is forced to do due to the game options that she forcefully has to choose from. <<less
