Overachiever Shen Wei traveled through time and found herself as the lowest-ranking maid in the grand residence of the Yan Prince.

The Yan Prince held a prestigious position, but his consorts were all content to live dull lives. The noble-born princess consort was as tranquil as a chrysanthemum; the concubine sought a life of monogamy; the reincarnated woman was utterly disillusioned with the Yan Prince and had given up on striving for anything; and the other timid concubines dared not make a move...

The queen of workplace competition, Shen Wei, declared: Don't stop me! I'm going to outwork these unambitious slackers!

...

The Yan Prince had grown accustomed to the stagnant atmosphere in his harem, until a particularly skilled courtesan appeared.

This concubine was stunningly beautiful, adept at both literature and dance, hardworking, and always brought him fresh excitement. The Prince couldn't help but take a second, then a lifetime-long, look at her.

Years later, Shen Wei became the all-powerful Imperial Noble Consort, with children and the emperor's exclusive favor.

Meanwhile, the princess consort remained as tranquil as ever; the concubine was aging and had yet to experience a monogamous life; and the reincarnated woman was still eating simple meals in her modest abode...

After half a lifetime of striving, Shen Wei finally reached retirement and revealed her true nature, fully embracing a life of leisure. The retired emperor interjected: "You competed for favor just to retire?"

Shen Wei snacked on melon seeds: "What else?"

Living is all about retirement!

The retired emperor was even more surprised to find, in midlife, that other men were vying for his wife's affections! <<less

"You’re a failure, don’t ever cross my threshold again!" ... more>>

In a country where magic is everything, especially in a kingdom where everything is determined by the ability of ‘bloodline magic’ that only nobles are born with. Hermes, who was born as the second son of a certain noble family, was found to be a “failure” with no bloodline magic despite his high magical talent, and was exiled from the family. Hermes was almost killed in the depths of his disappointment, but then he was picked up by Rose, a “witch” he met, who saw his talent and made him her apprentice.

After five years of training, he returns to King’s Landing with the most powerful magic of all – the ability to recreate all magic – and learns all kinds of magic he never knew he could. He corrects the wrong thinking spreading in the kingdom, saves his childhood friends who suffer from magic, destroys the incompetent position of the bloodline magic-dependent people who banished him, and eventually makes a name for himself as the savior of the kingdom. <<less

Everyone else only transmigrates into a book once.... more>>

But Su Yunjing. He ended up doing it three times and always beside the same yandere.

The first time, he was eight years old, and the yandere was seven.

Su Yunjing walked up to him and said, “I want to be your friend!”

Fu Hanzhou, with his tiny milk voice, coldly replied, “I don’t need friends.”

Su Yunjing: …It turns out that yandere was cool when he was young.

*

The second time, Su Yunjing transmigrated back in again. They were both teenagers.

Su Yunjing, ever the enthusiastic one, asked, “Wanna share a bed tonight?”

Fu Hanzhou ignored him and lay down with his back to him.

Just as Su Yunjing, disheartened by the failed attempt at bonding, was about to leave, the person on the bed suddenly shifted.

Su Yunjing: …So now the cool yandere evolved into a tsundere?

*

The third time he transmigrated, the adult yandere became a top star in the entertainment industry, while he became a nobody, an 18th-tier actor.

An 18- tier got cornered right outside the dressing room by a big star.

“Long time no see. How does it feel, leaving me behind twice?”

Fu Hanzhou spoke, his voice soft and sweet, as if it had been dipped in honey, but his eyes were filled with barely contained fury and madness.

Su Yunjing, whose cover had just been blown: …

Holy crap, who is this terrifying yandere?!

Can I still be saved? <<less

I became a Shinsu squirrel capable of stopping a mana rampage. It’s said that a Shinsu can become human if it absorbs a large amount of mana. However, my current owner had a significantly low mana level.... more>>

I was determined to become a human in whatever way possible, hence I approached the child who would become a villain in the future, and absorbed his mana.

“Kyung!”

I used my front paws to absorb the stray mana.

“Kyu kyung!”

I even dealt with wicked servants, throwing acorns at them.

“Kyung.”

He looked pathetic and lonely, so I patted him till he fell asleep…

“Uh… mmh.”

I never imagined I’d become a human being-

“Ni- nice to meet you?”

Certainly not in his bed!

* * *

In the main plot, the evil boy is summoned and taken to war. Initially, the mana rampage was intense, and his personality became twisted. But now that I’ve relieved his suffering, he’ll grow up to be a decent grown-up, right?

I was even adopted into a really nice place after becoming human. However…

The evil child had grown up and returned as a young man, and his condition was rather alarming… <<less

I woke up inside the novel [A Step Away from Hell] , a story I had read in my past life.... more>>

And not just anywhere—I found myself in a world destined to be destroyed by future disasters.

As if that wasn’t unfair enough, the place where I opened my eyes was none other than the s*ave shop where those very disasters were being raised.

Before I knew it, I had become a s*ave, forced to live in the same room as the young disasters who would one day bring about the end of the world…

“I told you, that’s Lizzie’s spot! Mary’s side has always been Lizzie’s spot…!”

“I sat here first. Why should it be yours? Explain it logically.”

“W-We should all s-sit fairly… t-together… I-I also… want to…”

“Friends shouldn’t fight…”

Yet, when I met them in person, they were nothing more than children—starved for affection.

These adorable kids… How could they possibly become the terrifying disasters that would one day destroy the world?

The answer was simple. The so-called ‘education’ of the nobles, carried out under the pretense of raising high-class s*aves.

“N-no, I d-don’t want to…! St-stay away! Don’t come near me!”

“Haah… Listen, brat. If you don’t want to get hurt, you’d better behave. Starting today, your ‘education’ begins.”

I had read the novel. I knew exactly who would take them and what horrors they would endure.

In other words, I knew how to handle the nobles.

If that’s the case…

“I’ll go instead.”

If I could take their misfortunes, couldn’t I also change the future that leads to destruction? <<less

This time, you will be the ones who will be horribly destroyed.... more>>

There were various modifiers for the villainess Odette Lina von Albrecht, who appeared in the 19+ corrupted reverse harem game.

A deceiver who deceived the Empire by pretending to be a purifier when she was not. A witch who committed evil deeds that were too evil to even speak of and toyed with the four male protagonists who were transcendent.

However, there was something that the players who played the game and the male protagonists who hated and pursued Odette didn't know.

"You are nothing more than a toy in our house. Since your master has decided to abandon you, you should die happily."

All of Odette's terrible evil deeds were not based on her will. However, that fact was never revealed. Because Odette, who was falsely accused, eventually met her death at the hands of the male protagonists.

It was definitely going to end like that.

"...Could it be that you have come back?"

She returned to the past. And at the moment of her death, she realized that she had been reincarnated as Oddette.

***

A second life was given, a future where she knew exactly what would happen. I was going to show the family who betrayed me a real hell and use the male protagonists who hated me as a means of revenge. But,

"Damn it. I don't know why you care."

"I want to offer you my knightly oath."

The male protagonist who hated me changed. In the meantime, I suddenly awakened as a real purifier.

'When I wanted it so badly, I wasn't given anything. Why now that I've given up on everything?'

All that matters to me is revenge. I don't like anything. Really, not anything. <<less

After transmigrating, Liu Changqing skipped over the dating phase and was thrust straight into fatherhood with a son and a daughter. This left him in a gloomy state. His eldest son is mature and intelligent, while his young daughter, resentful of her parents’ divorce, blames Liu Changqing for everything and treats him with hostility.... more>>

The original owner of this body was the ultimate "simp." He grovelled so much that his ex-mother-in-law’s single agreement allowed his ex-wife to take away all the family assets in exchange for custody of their two children.

Now, with his factory bankrupt, Liu Changqing is racking his brain over how to raise his son and daughter. This has become his biggest headache.

It has been five years since I started working in the loan shark business.... more>>

At 23 years old, I was gradually learning how to do this job and was able to handle collections on my own.

Then one day.

"Ito san, it's been one week past the deadline. Do you understand?”

[I-I understand ! Tomorrow I will...]

[I can't wait any longer. The interest alone is quite a lot. Look for anything in the house that you can sell.]

[P-please anything but that ! ...Ah, ugh, I found something that could be sold !]

And so, he pulled out a girl with bruises all over her body and even a few scars from gut burns.

Her body was emaciated and her eyes were hollow.

She was about 10 years old.

"I've put a lot of effort into it, so I think you'll like it ! Although, with how it looks, I don't think it'll be worth that much ! How about 50,000 yen? I'll pay the interest with this !"

The man said with a goofy grin.

I have been curious about this girl for a long time.

"....I understand.”

And I received the girl in exchange for the money.

Thus, I had a daughter who had closed her heart.

Five years later...I never thought this would happen...

"Yuuto san, will you marry me?"

"I'm telling you that you and I are father and daughter."

“Muu.....I'll definitely make you touch me one day." <<less

Since ancient times, a Regas has been a being that exists to tame the king who inherits the power of the dragon.... more>>

Abel, who received training to become Regas from his master, meets the prince who will become the future king.

“Wow, it’s the first time our eyes have met. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Abel, Your Highness.”

The young prince, who was ab*sed and hurt by his mother, did not open his heart to anyone. Until then, no Regas had been able to endure him.

However.

“Since Your Highness looks so frightened, I feel I should stay by your side.”

Only Abel was able to open the prince’s heart.

“As long as I’m alive, I will stay by Your Highness’ side.”

“…Abel.”

However, due to the scheming of the ‘King’s Heart’ which had effectively controlled the king and produced the king’s Regas, Abel eventually dies.

* * *

And after 12 years have passed.

In the meantime, the once young prince has become an adult and ascended to the throne as the emperor, unifying the continent through wars, but the ‘King’s Heart’ still remains intact.

Abel, who has gained a new life, and the prince who became an emperor.

Can these two people recognize the changes in each other and destroy the ‘King’s Heart’? <<less

Kim Jiyeon, a student on leave leading an ordinary life, finds herself transmigrated into the romance novel, ‘The Saint’s Flower,’ that her friend had shown her.... more>>

Within the novel that she had read only halfway through, there was a girl named Iora. The romantic world of the saintly heroine and the male hero was clearly not her own. Nonetheless, she believed she could find happiness because she had become a character in the novel, just like the protagonist.

However, everyone cast their hatred upon her, accusing her of being the tormenting villain and a fake holy virg*n, Iora. So, once again, she was threatened with death. A sacrificial lamb for the sacred female protagonist, a villain deserving of punishment, but it wasn’t so.

Iora was, in fact, a true holy saint. Returning to the beginning through the blessing of the divine .

She had no family, no haters, no sainthood, no beloved fiancé, and no need for any of it. She would walk a different path. <<less

Clover is a child born without her family’s power. The child, entrusted to her maternal family because she lacked power, grows up under the mistreatment of her mean aunt and cousin.... more>>

‘Clover, it’s okay.’

Still, Clover didn’t lose heart, because someday her father would come for her.

[August 2nd, Sunny weather. Auntie got angry again. She told me not to tell Daddy.]

So she kept a diary in preparation for that time, and diligently practiced her power to show her father when he came.

But.

‘Daddy, when are you coming?’

The increasing mistreatment from her maternal family and a father who wouldn’t come even after writing ten diary entries. Clover firmly believed that someday her father would come for her, but just when she began to think she might truly have been abandoned…

“Clover, daddy’s here.”

Her father appeared, and in exactly the way Clover had always hoped.

_________________________________________________________

There was something her mean aunt always told Clover. That Clover was useless and her power was insignificant, so even if she returned home, she would surely be hated.

But.

“I would have loved you just the same without your power, because you are my daughter.”

A father who was much kinder and more gentle than Clover had expected.

“Little pea, want to sit next to me? Should brother feed you?”

“My little sister, I’ve been waiting a very long time to meet you.”

Two brothers who welcomed Clover back home,

“Clover, no one can touch you as long as I’m here.”

…And a sister who may be a bit overprotective but cherishes and loves Clover.

Among her loving family, Clover thought, maybe her aunt was wrong!

I became a part of that novel as the tr*sh of the Count’s family, the family that oversaw the territory where the first village that Choi Han visits is located.

The problem is that Choi Han becomes twisted after that village, and everyone in it, is destroyed by assassins.

The bigger problem is the fact that this s*upid tr*sh who I’ve become doesn’t know about what happened in the village and messes with Choi Han, only to get beaten to a pulp.

A certain girl aspiring to be an adventurer was invited to join the Hero’s Party by chance and became their apprentice. However, she was not actually treated as a real apprentice, and was subjected to physical violence and verbal ab*se every day.... more>>

In the end, she was told that she had no talent and was about to be expelled from the party.

However, the hero promised the girl that if she could stay in the Demon Forest for a week, her expulsion would be revoked. Unaware of the fact that she had been tricked, the girl was abandoned in the forest without even a weapon to defend herself.

But the Hero’s Party had no idea that the girl had been observing every battle they had faced. Nobody knew of the girl’s talent.

A talent, for which even the word “genius” would be too modest to describe, would allow her to reach the realm of excellence.

The girl who was able to escape the forest soon registered herself as an adventurer, and in no time, she overtook the fierce fighters one after another.

This was a tale of the rapid growth of a girl with the strongest physical prowess.

Song Yuanchen just had a drink, and when he woke up, he'd swapped bodies with his boss, Huo Chengye.... more>>

Faced with a mountain of documents and Huo Chengye's awful family, Song Yuanchen decided he was done playing CEO! He was ready to pack his bags and run away that very night.

But when he saw Huo Chengye—wearing his face—sitting dejectedly in a corner, silent and alone, Song Yuanchen suddenly abandoned the thought.

Forget it. So what if it's documents? He'd just work overtime every day to finish them! So what if it's terrible parents? He'd just deal with them head-on for Huo Chengye. So what if it means putting on airs and maintaining a poker face every day? He... he, he, he just couldn't do it!

Expecting someone who'd been carefree for twenty-two years to suddenly act like a high-class elite? Sorry, that was impossible. :)

According to an unnamed employee at Huo Corporation, the atmosphere between their president and Song Yuanchen grew increasingly strange.

The first thing Mr. Huo did every day was call Song Yuanchen into his office. He took him along to client meetings and even on business trips.

Just as everyone speculated they might be relatives, Mr. Huo directly promoted him to assistant. Well now, that certainly gave him a legitimate reason to keep Song Yuanchen close.

Then one day, she happened to see Mr. Huo and Song Yuanchen emerging from the same room, talking and laughing?!! They were still in yesterday's clothes, but... they were wearing each other's clothes?!!
