So I stole the regression. <<less

I was reincarnated as the heiress of a conglomerate in the novel. However there was a problem, this world was about to be destroyed by a virus monster.... more>>

All I have left is money, I quickly bought in the countryside and built a shelter to avoid monsters…The world went down much faster than I expected, f*ck!

And somehow, even the male leads are trapped with me in my house. But it doesn’t seem like these two wanted to leave. Why is it as if you guys have no intention of going to the female lead?

“What the hell are you?”

“I think she knew about the fact that the world would be destroyed.”

They had a lot of questions for me but I couldn’t answer them. It’s not like you’re going to believe me anyway, right? Now, in my eyes, they just look like good manpower resources.

“Now let’s get to work, pay as much as you eat!”

If we manage to find a cure for the virus, the cause of the world’s collapse, our hellish times will be over. So, let’s roll the male leads until then and hold out!

But there’s one problem. This old mansion I bought turned out to be quite suspicious. What the hell is going on in my house? <<less

I became a maid in a horror game.
And, here in this mansion, I was confined together with the male lead, who’s trying to escape. My role here was to guide him around the mansion and to give him penalties once in a while.
I just need to fulfill my NPC duties until the male lead’s playthrough is over.... more>>

“Once I get out, I’ll have you locked up the same way.”

This male lead was kicking up quite the racket though.

So I decided to help him escape as soon as possible.

“Let’s eat, Dietrich.”
“That’s a potion. It’ll get you healed up right away.”
“The escape hint is right over there…”

I stuffed him well enough so he had enough energy for the next part of the game.
I gave him a potion to use in case he got hurt.
I also gave him some hints to solve the problem.

Then, we can get out now, right?

However.

“Not sure. I don’t know the answer.”

Look here, smart guy. What exactly do you mean by that?

…The male lead doesn’t want to leave the mansion.

“If you’re not leaving, then I will!”

I shouted in a fit of anger. At the thought of having to keep looking at this hateful guy’s face, I was justifiably annoyed.

“Is this truly the kind of place that you can get out of?”

As he said this, the look in his eyes darkened sharply.

“Just so we’re clear, I have absolutely no intention of getting out of here.”
“What?”
“And you’re not leaving either.”

How the hell did it come to this? <<less

After his Empress Mother was deposed, she passed away, and his maternal Uncle made one mistake after another.... more>>

Lu Mingyu had always kept a low profile, counting down the days to when he could go to his fiefdom, wishing to stay away from the Capital.

However, his cautious behavior only earned him disrespect and humiliation, even to the point where he was sent to someone else’s bed with a drugged cup of wine.

After that night, when Lu Mingyu met the interested gaze of General Fuyuan, Yan Yunge, many years of sadness and hatred welled up inside his heart.

At that moment, Lu Mingyu finally realized that the consequence of not competing was to become a pawn in others’ hands.

So, he had to fight.

After several years of feigning courtesy and conformity, he was steadfastly determined to take revenge.

Then, the young Princes failed one by one, while the Emperor’s eldest son, whom none of the Ministers had ever taken seriously, finally ascended the throne.

After taking power, Lu Mingyu was determined to remove the General from his position.

After making the General drink a cup of poisoned wine, the Emperor thought back to the few good moments they shared in the past, and regret filled his heart as he realized the consequences of his actions.

However, the Emperor soon heard the news that the General hadn’t died, but had lost his memory instead.

Before Lu Mingyu could decide how to deal with the situation, he felt an unusual movement inside his belly….. <<less

“In the Romance White Book, entry 107 states, 'Every romance leaves its trace.'"... more>>

Height 183, weight 72, CSAT score 485, ability 0.

Those were the familiar, adequate, and ordinary numbers that described myself, now twenty years old.

I was accepted into a university well above my grade level as an extra. However, when I went to the bank to pay my tuition, I met a man who called me an ability user. An ability user who was immune to abilities. I scored a flat 0% in every category of the ability test, can’t even bend a spoon, and possess no combat skills whatsoever, though?

I didn’t know what use my ability would be in the military, but I became affiliated with the ability user group, S.E. Jung Haekyung, the one who dragged me into S.E., was the only one who reached out their hand to me, someone who was suddenly dragged to an unfamiliar place and treated unfairly.

Haekyung was as beautiful, strong, and kind as ever, but… the more time we spent together, the more something seemed… <<less

While subjugating the smuggled monsters, she felt the unusual energy of a monster fox , so she found a priestess of the Eastern continent to ask about it.

“It’s a terrifying nine-tailed-fox. If you don’t want to see it become a demon of hell raise it yourself and bring it to the East Continent.”

So she raised and taught the fox with effort…

“I am of a race greater than that of a beast. Scyllia knows that, right?”

“……”

“Don’t worry. You taught me well. I don’t do anything dangerous.”

“……”

“But you can’t run away.”

Power entered his thick and tense forearms that tightened her.

“Keep helping me to be a nice person, Scyllia. By my side.”

Forever.

A nine-tailed-fox that is naturally bewitching and eats people.

The boy who grew up to be huge, refused to become independent..

With a face that was so le*d that the discipline she had been teaching in the past would be in vain. <<less

My favorability rating went up on its own due to my sincere work ethic.... more>>

Hirose Souta graduated from a creative vocational school and successfully got a job, but it turned out to be a black company. He somehow endured it for 3 years but decided to quit due to physical and mental exhaustion. He managed to resign by signing a confidentiality agreement about what happened at the workplace. After taking a 4-month break that also served as a rest period, he returned to his parents’ home and was looking for a new job when his mother Rie introduced him to a job opportunity.

It was a request to become the manager of a shared residence run by Rie’s grandmother. The reason was that the grandmother was hospitalized due to a worsening chronic illness and they needed new help.

Souta, who had never experienced a managerial position, tried to decline due to the weight of the responsibility, but reluctantly accepted due to the wishes of his parents, to whom he was always indebted.

And then he was informed. “Just to let you know in advance, the dormitory you’re going to only has female residents.”

That’s right, the shared residence Souta was going to manage turned out to be a girls’ dormitory.

A carefree, bright, and energetic high school girl. A high school girl who hates men and spews venom every day. A working adult who looks quite childish but wants to be seen as an adult. A shy but caring older sister who is also popular on social media.

All the girls living in this dormitory have immeasurable levels of attractiveness. Souta will deepen his relationships with these heroines. <<less

Transfer student, a head honcho in his previous school • Damn badass cool guy, Shou (Zhai Yao)... more>>

Top-notch big shot in his curent school • Reserved, cunning, and upfront, Gong (Shen Heng)

#This is a story of when one school boss meets another school boss…

Zhai Yao transferred from one rubbish school to another rubbish school, and on the very first day, he sent shockwaves through his new class, leaving his classmates utterly bewildered.

With a pale and delicate countenance and a slender figure, Zhai Yao appeared anything but the rumoured fighter who could take on ten opponents at once. Yet, the very next moment after entering the classroom, he confidently strolled to the back row, kicked a desk in the corner, and dropped his backpack on it.

The male student, who had been reading with lowered eyes, lifted his head and looked up with an indifferent expression. “Need something?” Zhai Yao glanced at the name on his book, knocked on his desk twice, and said, “Shen Xing (沈行), right? …Move aside.”

He remained utterly oblivious to the ominous hush around him—

Very well, the new student had just arrived, and on his very first day, he had already clashed with the school’s big shot.

The big shot sneered, rising to his feet. With a casual flick of his hand, he sent Zhai Yao’s backpack sailing into the rubbish bin. He corrected him, “‘Heng (珩)’.”

–

Zhai Yao and Shen Heng became desk mates.

Zhai Yao felt that his new desk mate was both devious and pretentious. Not only was he ruthless in fights, but he also always carried a book in his hands. As fate would have it, their academic standings left them ranked side by side at the bottom-most. To put it bluntly, he was nothing more than an overbearing king of pretence.

It wasn’t until one day, by a twist of fate, Zhai Yao ended up visiting Shen Heng’s home and discovered a wall decorated with certificates and awards.

Shen Heng accompanied his senile elderly grandpa. He patiently and tirelessly answered the old man’s repetitive questions while revealing his strong yet slender arms, preparing a meal consisting of three dishes and a soup.

He cast a cold glance at Zhai Yao. “Come and have dinner.”

Zhai Yao chuckled and approached, narrowing his eyes. “Tsk, you’re quite a homemaker, huh.”

Shen Heng gazed at Zhai Yao’s exposed fair neck, his eyes lingering for a moment before he averted his gaze. His earlobes betrayed a subtle blush.

–

Zhai Yao once thought that Shen Heng was a bit of a pitiful soul, implicated by the hardships of life, from being an all-around academic genius to falling into a delinquent.

To the extent that, when Shen Heng pinned him against the wall in the stairwell and even locked the door behind them, Zhai Yao still maintained a light-hearted demeanour, joking with a mindset of rescuing a wayward youth, “Want to kiss me? Wait until you break into the top 100.”

Shen Heng’s breath hitched ever so slightly, his gaze deepening with a mysterious intensity. “I’ll just get the top rank instead. Would that be enough to bed you?”

Here, in my room, sit on my knees. Let me bring the world to this room. But doubts keep sprouting, despite sealing the cracks of happiness.”

“Kwaaak!”... more>>

Among dragons, the strongest dragon cried. F*ck.

I found myself transmigrated into a modern fantasy novel. As an S-rank boss monster, a dragon.

Being a dragon might seem like a decent transmigration, but this monster dies in the prologue. After fighting with the protagonist for several days, no less.

In short, I’m screwed. How can I beat the main character of a modern fantasy?

But I have to survive. Like any possessed individual, the will to survive surged within me.

With the mindset of holding onto a rope, I looked at my skills. Then, a four-letter word caught my eye.

[Polymorph]
Excited, I looked into the explanation, only to find out that polymorphing is only possible into a hatchling. Why can’t I become human?

If you’re a dragon, shouldn’t you be able to transform into a beautiful appearance to charm people around, looking all pretty and holy?

Well, at least it’s probably easier to move around than a giant body. Let’s look on the bright side.

So, I tried using polymorph, and it was incredibly cute! It could easily pass as the novel’s mascot! With just a few cute gestures, it seemed like it could completely charm all the characters inside the modern fantasy novel!

Wait, this wasn’t so bad. Rather than being a stranger, isn’t it better to be a small and cute creature?

And so, I decided to become the protagonist’s companion monster. <<less

“I formally propose to you. For the honor of Vilkanos and yours!”
