I had a precognitive dream that my sister would die soon after entering into an arranged marriage. To prevent this, Aracilla chose to marry Damian, the younger brother of her intended spouse. The problem was, both of them happened to be formidable rivals—one a magician and the other a knight.... more>>

"Last year, was Young Lady the mage who snatched the orb like a sneaky weasel during the expedition?" "If I hadn't helped, you would have been rotting in a dungeon by now, don't you think so?"

The individuals who were moments away from throttling each other, dramatically agreed to a contractual marriage.

Falling in love? We'll never see each other as romantic partners, even if we live and die together.

...or so they said.

"Why is this woman so fragile and thin? It's making me worried for no reason."

"Why does this man insist on doing everything alone? I could help too."

They kept getting involved with each other... <<less

Owner of the opulent great theatre, a man with whom anyone may fall in love at first sight.... more>>

The audience recognized the famous name when they saw Edgar Wharton, the blond, gorgeous man enter the theatre.

Even though he makes several females lose sleep over their affection for him, Natalie has a crush on a genuine gentleman rather than this showy socialite.

However, Edgar Wharton, famous for winning ladies' hearts with his attractive grin, accidentally revealed her hidden, unrequited love.

"I'll help you."

The playboy of the social world and the bookworm of the baron's family shared a common goal: to assist each other in finding love.

“Natalie, will you be my girlfriend? Leonard will fall in love with you, and we can break up."

The curtain was raised on a play called 'Contract Dating,' in which the goal was to avoid falling for the other's act of love.

***

"I'm not good at deceiving others."

"Then try loving me."

The dominant man's smile was so appealing that it appeared seductive.

He asked her to cross the border, but he remained in place, commanding love but not loving.

Natalie vowed not to love him or allow herself to love him. But...

"Do you want to mess up my daily life?"

"Is it okay if I mess it up?"

Mr. Wharton smiled mischievously as he examined Natalie's lips.

"How far will you allow me?"

Can they avoid falling in love by the end of the play? <<less

The kingdom boasted a hero and formidable leader of the demon extermination force, Valen Rudwick. Amidst the chaos of battle, he tried to rescue a woman from a demon attack, only to be struck on the back of his head…... more>>

Unbeknownst to him, the woman he saved was not just any civilian but a succubus.

When Valen regained consciousness, he found himself not on the bloody battlefield but in a wedding hall within the demon realm.

“I am Argentine. And you are?”

“Do you think I’ll tell my name to a filthy demon like you?”

Weary from the prolonged wars, the demons proposed a political marriage to him. The absurd condition? It would last until Argentine, whom Valen saved, became pregnant with his child.

The idea of a child with demon blood repulsed him to the core. But pushed to his limits, Valen reluctantly agreed to their proposal.

“Let’s cease these charades and focus on what needs to be done. It’ll be better for both of us,” he growled.

“I want to give you time to accept…”

“Should I give not only my body but also my mind? Will that strengthen my ‘essence’?”

Valen was disgusted by the demons’ hypocrisy. He had intended to leave the demon realm as soon as the succubus bore a child.

“Whether you call for me or come to me, it’s up to you,” he said.

“…”

“I’ll do my da!mned best to give you my seed.”

Valen, the human warrior who despises demons, and Argentine, the demon king who sought peace through a child.

My fourth regression.... more>>

To survive, I had to become independent.

For my goal, I picked up a man who was woefully annihilated and about to die.

I wanted to become an "extraterritorial territory" in a world full of villains.

I wanted extraterritoriality rights so power, money, honor, and even the law couldn't reach me.

That's where I wanted to stand.

"What exactly are you?"

"I don't know—your fate, maybe?"

"What?"

"Miraculously appearing and saving you just before death, isn't that fate?"

Ahaak Osvold, the tyrant who would rule with cruelty, proposed an unexpected contract.

"I want to make a friendship contract with you."

'Why would you want to be friends with me?' …It's what I thought, but in all honesty, I needed him to gain my "autonomous region."

"Don't regret it later."

Then, I'll raise you as an emperor.

 

━━━━ ∙ʚ(✧)ɞ∙ ━━━━

 

But it seems I raised him too well?

Amid the imperial succession competition, Ahaak kissed my hair and said,

"Tia, what are you looking at?"

"I mean, tonight… I'll be waiting for you in my chambers, Tia."

"Since I'm the only friend in your life, it's enough."

…Wait.

It didn't say anywhere that the friends contract with the tyrant would be exclusive, right? <<less

Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly…

The Grand Duke, Lloyd Cardence Valentine, arrived and whispered, “Should I kill everyone here?”

“If you need me, just call me. Your song will always reach me, wherever you are.”

In the end, Aria called the devil, bringing death to all those present, along with herself.

“Let’s fall down to hell together.”

And with that, Aria breathed her last and died… only to return to her 10-year-old self.

Now that she had a second chance at her life, Aria was determined to change her fate, as well as the cruel fate of her saviour, Grand Duke Valentine.

And so… Aria proposed to him with a marriage contract.

She sold her soul to the devil and vowed to protect him.

“O-Of course! As per your request, there’s only one piece available in the whole Empire.”

People around me listen to me well even if I just frown and sit still. Since I don’t have to live in difficulty, I decided to just comfortably live on as a villainess.

“Father. Is it necessary for you to solve formulas in this slow and inefficient way?”

I thought it would be good to be a rich villainess, so I used all my knowledge.

I have had enough of dealing with my father, so why did an unexpected character suddenly appear? What if this person disrupts my plan? <<less

It was a passing wish to the weary and tired Eugene and she’d not think it’d ever come to pass… but it did.

She opened her eyes and found she was sent to a novel-like world she wrote in passing and became Jin Anika, the scorned queen notorious for her ruthlessness and undeserving of her status.

Queen Jin only sought and desired to see the destruction of this world — the villainess who met her untimely and miserable end at the hands of her husband, Kasser, the reigning king of the Fourth Kingdom.

While struggling to survive in the unknown world, King Kasser visited Eugene and demanded that a contract be fulfilled and come to fruition.

“Three years ago, we made a deal.”

I've took the role of 'that person' who passed away long ago, someone who bears a striking resemblance to her.... more>>

In a reverse harem fantasy novel set against a military backdrop, the title "Four Crazy Guys Obsessing Over Me," or simply "F4," unfolds. The narrative centers around the protagonist's first love and former comrade who descended into madness following their demise, now fixated on the female lead.

However, as the one who has taken on the position of 'that person,' I enjoy certain privileges. Could it be that my fate involves facing death? Alternatively, survival might lead to a twist in the romantic plot, with me becoming the object of obsession instead of the female lead. Personally, I'm not inclined towards being the center of such fixation. But then...

"Hey, get your act together."

"The loser falls behind and gets left behind!"

"These fools need to snap out of it! Can't they get their act together?"

Romance is nowhere in sight; instead, the harsh reality of the real K-military awaits me!

Before I can fully escape this predicament, I had hoped that the male leads would become obsessed with me. However, this apocalyptic world consistently shatters my expectations. To worsen matters, it appears that the male leads are gradually losing their sanity in this chaotic world.

What's the only way to break free from this absurd exploitation? Naturally, it's through a revolution! You corrupt imperial scoundrels! <<less

‘Anyhow … I think I transmigrated into a romance fantasy novel.’... more>>

The problem is—I opened my eyes in a wake room. Within a coffin. At the funeral of this body’s owner. To make matters worse, I had read so many novels that I couldn’t remember which one I was in.

‘Ta-da~ you thought I was dead, right? I was not!’

On the other hand, I think I’m a villainess. My family is cold-hearted, and the servants shrink and shun me, often crying while looking at the air next to me. But it doesn’t matter! I’ll exploit my master in romance fantasy to get rid of my villainess tag!

But then, I found a strange pattern.

“What exactly is this?”

[How to summon •••]
‘Is it summoning formation to summon something like spirits or dragons? That’s good. A villainess needs at least one ability to protect herself.’

“Meow~”

‘But why was I chosen by a three-eyed leopard-patterned cheese cat, rather than spirits or dragons? Well, it doesn’t matter because it’s cute!’

A monster lives in Count Rohanson’s household. A creature lurking beneath the skin of the late Lady Evangeline.

“I’m Gabriel, commander of Paralos Knights. I’d like to know more about young lady Rohanson.”

‘Knight Commander, pitch black hair, azure eyes … Gabriel must be the male lead!’

“How foolish. You don’t even know your place. I’m not interested in you.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’m just curious about you.”

‘How come? Aren’t I the villainess? Go find your partner, the female lead!’

My aim is to use my summoning circle to protect myself! I’ll also look after Pudding the cat and Jelly the werewolf.

It is 100% correct to say that you should not have double in-laws. I was just trying to raise my niece.

“Isn’t this the best way for both of us to raise Artea?”

Suddenly, the contract marriage with my ex-boyfriend began. No way!

“My uncle loved my aunt so much that he asked her to marry him.”
“Aaaah, it’s romantic!”

But is it okay to lie to this extent? I did it?

“Wow, dancing with my aunt and uncle is pretty!”
“My aunt and uncle love each other so much, so they say I have to go out with them sometimes to go on dates!”

Thanks to my niece’s help, or rather, interference. Now I sleep in the same bed every day. Is this… right?

“Auntie can’t run away. If she does, my uncle will catch her.”
"Yes. I won’t let you go!”

It is clearly a contract marriage made with divorce in mind, but there is no way out. <<less
