“I am Lady Glasster, treat me accordingly!”... more>>

Aiden Fitzroy, the illegitimate child of the former emperor bearing the scars of war, and Anje Glasster, forced into an unwanted marriage,

“Now, aren’t you Mrs Fitzroy? Moreover, I’m not spending time with you because I like it.”

A farm surrounded by nature, a quaint rural village, and everything that doesn’t suit her taste. Among them, the worst is Aiden, who treats her like a pest.

“Just wait, I’ll deceive you and escape from this farm!”

But at some point, both his attitude and her feelings begin to change.

****

“So what you’re saying is that you didn’t think I was pretty before, but you do now?”

“Ah……No, even before.”

With an embarrassed voice, Aiden mumbled like he had a thorn in his throat, but eventually, he managed to finish his sentence; though he had to squeeze his words out.

“Even before, I thought you were beautiful.”

“………Sir, your ears are red.”

Everyone thought this marriage marked the downfall of Princess Glasster, but was that really true? Was she really falling? <<less

Su Jin, an ordinary poor young man from the countryside working overtime every day to make ends meet in the city to support his family, finds himself in the possession of a book only known as Hell’s Handbook.... more>>

The Handbook universe initially seems like a video game as it proceeds to throw him into a different world every month, each world filled with supernatural beings, mythical creatures and deities, and even includes a complete point system along with weapons and special skills.

Surviving these challenges is not easy, but it comes with great rewards.

But he soon realizes that all of this is real. The monetary rewards and magical items he receives from Hell’s Handbook can be used in the real world, but in the same way, every person who dies during a challenge dies in the real world too.

As Su Jin desperately tries to survive each challenge he is thrown into, he slowly starts to uncover the truth behind Hell’s Handbook.

Who is behind Hell’s Handbook and its horror filled challenges? Each challenge reveals a new truth about the world Su Jin lives in, bringing new people into his life even as the world around him becomes harder and harder to trust, and perhaps, even a greater mission in life… <<less

An Rugu just graduated from university and returned to her small, mountain village to inherit a rundown Daoist temple.... more>>

The Daoist temple is simple and solemn, but there are no visitors, and there is no money for incense.

She heard that doing livestreams can earn money, so she decided to give it a try.

But her livestream isn’t singing and dancing—she tells fortunes.

——————

A divination livestream appeared on the Shark streaming platform, and the netizens who saw it dismissed it at first.

[It’s 2021, and there are still people who practice feudal superstition.]

[Look at you, you scam artist.]

But soon enough, the comments changed completely.

[Ah, master, you said my head was a little green, and my boyfriend who has been with me for ten years really cheated on me!]

[Master, you said that I was facing a bloody disaster. Thank you, master, for saving my life.]

After becoming popular, An Rugu somehow took over the task of promoting the Netherworld and became its spokesperson to the living.

Livestream divination to the living during the day—live attraction for ghosts at night.

[My grandpa came to me in a dream and told me to burn more paper money, so he can reward the streamer with dream money. Damn, the Netherworld really exists?!”]

[F*ck! The thief cried and returned the money to me after seeing the appearance of Hell in the livestream. He said he doesn’t want to go to Hell in the future.]
—————

Slice of life—except that An Rugu’s daily life consists of livestream divinations, conversing with denizens of the Netherworld, and running a halfway home for ghosts who don’t want to reincarnate yet.

Oh, and she also manages a small Daoist temple atop a pretty mountain with a magnificent view of the sky, rising through the clouds. <<less

I possessed an extra young lady, Adelia Blaise, who did not appear in the original novel.... more>>

The male lead, who was called madman due to his severe insomnia, was destined to be saved by the female lead, the saint.

Since this had nothing to do with me, I was just planning to live by publishing a book.

But, the male lead suddenly appeared before me.

Of all things, holding the book that I had published with him as the subject.

Making all the excuses, I even read the book to prove my innocence.

“Don’t tell me you’re falling asleep… Huh?”

The male lead fell asleep.

* * *

“I’m not the one who saves you, Cain.”

“…That mouth.”

“You’ll meet a woman who’s much more benevolent and kinder than me, and she’ll save you…!”

“Shut up, Lia.”

The corners of his lips, which had been moving leisurely, twisted and rose.

“Okay, then let’s do this. The moment I leave this room, I’ll kill the woman you said is more benevolent and kinder than you.”

“…What, what did you say?”

“Bring as many people as you want.”

“….”

“Because there’s no one like you in this world.”

I was astonished to hear the male lead say that he would kill the heroine of the novel with his own mouth.

“You’ll be the one who will save me, Lia.”

…I think I twisted the original story. <<less

There was once the worst Skeleton Demon King who even gave the gods headaches.... more>>

“If you do our work, we will make you a human.”

But he was deceived by the gods and sealed.

“Since the Demon King is gone, let’s eliminate all the demons.”

“Let’s leave the demon extermination, preaching, and everything else to our precious [Saint].”

“The Skeleton Demon King will be imprisoned for life and tortured in the maggot.”

That’s what was said for sure.

“Oh my, dear little Saint, have you woken up?”

Did he become a Saint?

And even the son of a nobleman in the Holy Empire that feeds the gods?

Then if he destroys this country, won’t the gods also be destroyed?

“Oh my, why is little Saint seemed so happy?”

“Little Saint, this is a disgusting toy of the Skeleton Demon King. Would you like to break it once?”

“The great gods recovered everything from the Skeleton Demon King who challenged the gods without restraint.”

…Let’s destroy this country.

Let’s eliminate it while breaking the backbone of the gods. <<less

She enticed the successor to the Duke of Lisianthus.... more>>

He sneakily grabbed my hand.

I sighed and twisted my hand out of his grip. “We can’t do this as friends.”

“Are you ashamed of holding my hand even once, Leen?”

No matter how much I think about what Carsion said, with his face showing ‘I barely held one hand’, it doesn’t seem that way.

“I can do more with you, Leen.”

Those words seemed to ring in my head, but the blue pupils were headed in a different direction – you can’t even look me in the eye. I mean, it’s not convincing to say those kind of words with such a shy face, you punk.

* * * * *

The Duchess took something out from the purse in her arms.

“Do you need money? Then take this money and break up with Carsion; take it without hard feelings.”

I stared silently into the thick pockets that the Duchess gave. Then I tapped my chin and gave her a serious look. “We’re not dating, we’re friends. Do you want me to cut off my friendship with Carsion from today?”

Will the Duchess get up from her seat, trembling and slap my face? Or are you going to spray water on me?

“Pass!”

“Ye-yes?” My face slowly blushed with embarrassment.

What’s with her unexpected reaction?! <<less

In the winter of three years ago, the first locked room mu*der in Japanese history was committed.... more>>

All of the evidence pointed to the defendant. It was certain they were guilty. And yet, they were found innocent and released. Why? Because the crime scene was a perfect locked room no one from the police or the prosecutor's office could solve.

"Since the room was locked, it was impossible for the defendant to have committed the mu*der. It's no different than if they had a perfect alibi." That was the argument of the defense, and that was the argument the judge sided with.

The ruling sent a ripple throughout Japanese society. No matter how suspicious you were or how much evidence you left behind, as long as you managed to create a locked room that no one could solve, you were immune from prosecution. With the common anti-mystery fiction talking point "there's no reason anyone would ever actually commit a locked room mu*der" completely overturned, the rate of locked room mu*ders in Japan skyrocketed.

When the police proved unable to deal with the surge of locked room crime, the Ministry of Justice published an official categorization of all known locked room tricks as an investigative aid. When that proved insufficient, Division Zero of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a police division dedicated solely to solving locked rooms, was created. When that still proved insufficient, locked room detectives, private investigators specializing in locked rooms, were officially licensed by the state and authorized to participate in police investigations. Calling a locked room appraiser, someone specializing in searching buildings for secret passages, is now a common first step in criminal investigations.

On the other side of the spectrum, locked room agents, assassins and crime planners specializing in locked room mu*ders, have become some of the most notorious criminals in Japanese history, and even a cult worshiping the scenes of locked rooms as a way to purify the souls of the deceased has made rapid inroads into Japan.

The protagonist, Kasumi Kuzushiro, is an introverted, somewhat cynical high school student who loves mysteries. Kasumi often finds himself dragged along on bizarre journeys by his flighty childhood friend, Yozuki Asahina. Due to their staggeringly bad luck, these trips often leave them in the wrong place at the wrong time to be caught up in locked room mysteries. Fortunately, another of Kasumi's childhood friends, Shitsuri Mitsumura, is the greatest locked room expert in the world, and can always discover the truth.

Hm? How did a high school girl become the greatest locked room expert in the world?

It's simple.

She's...

Qin Feng had reincarnated into Huang Gu as the young master of the Qin family, and his younger twin brother was a person rumoured to have been chosen by the heavens, born with a one-in-a-million skeletal frame of Sovereign Bones. ... more>>

Initially, his plan was to latch onto his younger brother’s thighs and ride them to the pinnacle of life. However, his aspirations were shattered when he met an illogical system that instructed him to follow the path of a villain.

“Ding dong! Dig out the Sovereign Bones of your younger brother. The reward is the Undefeatable Dense Pupils!”

Qin Feng: “Are you kidding me? That is my dearest relative and friend, my blood-related brother…… Hehehehe, my s*upid brother, are you in despair?

From that point onwards, every single person in Huang Gu came to despise Qin Feng for his unscrupulous methods, but when the truth was finally revealed, countless people were moved to tears at the depth of misery that Qin Feng had suffered these few years…… <<less

– My dear, I’m watching you.
– Relax, you’re just on the prison’s big broadcast screen.
– I’m suddenly really looking forward to reuniting with you. Would you greet me with a smile, or shoot me right in the head?

Chu Si sat behind a spacious desk, his face unchanged after reading the messages, and replied, “If I remember correctly, your sentence is the duration of the planet’s lifespan. So unfortunately, there will be no such day.”

Unless the world ends and the planet explodes.

But then two years later… the planet really did explode.

I became a wizard of the Illusion Magic School and decided to create a virtual reality with illusion magic to play a tabletop role-playing game (TRPG).... more>>

It was great to create a virtual reality, but I was in trouble because there were no suitable players. During that time, I received an offer to be the professor from the Royal Academy.

The offer was to use illusion magic to fill the students’ lack of practical experience safely. And so, I became a professor at the academy.

“Send me back, send me back to that world right now-!”

“Outer god, someday an outer god will be our doom, we’ll all die!!”

“I am not the bastard of the Redburn Ducal Family. I am the foremost disciple of the Great Namgung Clan, Namgung Qinghui!”

But it seems there is a bit of a misunderstanding.

This isn’t a spell for dimensional travel, kids. It’s fiction… <<less

A species that has the ability to hunt mutants, a perennial species. ... more>>

One day, they suddenly find themselves isolated in Naraka, a place of torment. Seowoon was once highly ranked in his species and known for his excellent combat capabilities, but he lost all of those abilities after being secluded in the Naraka. Instead, he gained the ability to detect the emergence of mutants through the “Messenger”.

To escape Naraka, they need a Wu Ore, a by-product of the mutants, but Seowoon can’t even get close to mutants without being killed. Upon learning the truth, Cahaya makes a proposal to Seowoon.

“From now on, let’s work together, be my mutant notifier”.

With Cahaya’s help, he is able to travel back and forth to Seoul, but Seowoon finds it more and more difficult.

“Why did I push you away…….”

He just wants to deny the feelings that draw him towards Cahaya. <<less

Nora, who had been sealed for 800 years for threatening to destroy the world, was very bored. One day, she heard the voice of a girl—Cecily—wishing to die, and was awaken. By that time, she’d grown feeble, and her body had shriveled. Thus, Nora proposed to Cecily.... more>>

‘—If that’s the case, would you lend me your body? In exchange, I promise that in a year, you’ll have a friend, a lover, a warm family, and promising future prospect for your perfect restart!’

The ‘Incorrigible Villainess,’ Nora, was resurrected in the body of the ‘Withered Grass Lady,’ Cecily.

First and foremost, the young lady who had pushed Cecily down the stairs had to be punished. As a matter of course, Nora flatly refused all requests from Cecily’s older sister who’d been taking advantage of her for a long time. As for Cecily’s family, who had tormented her for not being able to use magic… she’d make them regret!

Of course, she also had to enjoy her own school life. Classes, club activities, school festivals. She had to study and play to her heart’s content.

‘Let’s enjoy the youth that I’d yearned for during my final moments!’

This is the story of a young girl who was nicknamed ‘Withered Grass Lady’ as she takes the reins of her youth. …And also, the story of a girl touted as the ‘Incorrigible Villainess’ who conquers her fate from 800 years ago, and fulfills all her wishes while doing whatever she wants. <<less

The Adrasia empire on the Vogel continent. There is a battle over the throne of such an empire that possesses powerful military and vast territory.... more>>

With the successor undecided, the children of the emperor are vying to expand their power. However, there was one prince that everyone says will definitely not become the emperor.

The seventh prince, Arnold Lakes Adler. The young man who was inferior to his younger twin brother in every way, the dull prince.

Incompetent and lethargic, Arnold wastes everyday just playing around. However, behind the scenes, he is one of the only five SS-Class adventurers called ‘Silver’.

Seeing the intensifying battle for the throne he decided “I don’t want to die so let’s have my little brother become the emperor…”

This is the tale of absurd secret manoeuvres of the prince who is uninterested in the title of the emperor. <<less

In the face of the Galiaar Empire’s invasion, two powerful forces stood firm against their malevolent grasp: the Albios Kingdom and the Lutetia Empire. Each nation possessed formidable defenders who repelled the tides of aggression.... more>>

In the Albios Kingdom, there was the unmatched dual-wielding swordsman known as the “Sword Saint of White,” Cloud. Meanwhile, the Lutetia Empire relied on the ancient abyssal magic wielder, the “Great Sage of Black,” Eclipse. These two individuals, often mistaken for demons by the Empire, harbored a secret—they were one and the same person.

And that person’s true identity? None other than Roy Luvell, the second son of a minor noble from the remote borderlands.

Despite his clandestine efforts to safeguard both nations, Roy’s life at the academy was far from exemplary. Chronic tardiness, frequent absences, and lackluster grades earned him the nickname of the “Noble Failure.”

He wanted to quit the academy if possible, and he wanted to pass on the titles of Sword Saint and Grand Sage to successors. But things didn’t always go as he wished.

He couldn’t easily quit the academy, he was trusted by his diligent sister, he was followed by a cool beautiful girl who was the successor to the Sword Saint, and he was liked by a lively girl aiming to become the Great Sage.

And so, amidst this tumultuous existence, Roy Luvell continued to navigate his restless daily routine. <<less

"A real man should not dwell under the influence of demons for too long!"

With impassioned words, Lu Xun successfully married into the demon clan. The young demoness was a 400-year-old golden snake, cold as ice, and arrogant.

"These female demons are not normal!"

However, Lu Xun gradually discovered that not only were these female demons suspicious, but there were even more peculiar things happening outside! <<less
