I became the secretary of a tyrant in place of my clumsy brother to survive. ... more>>

But I have so much potential for it. I’m so darn good at my job. Because I served the tyrant so well, ‘everyone has a happy ending’.

Well then, shall I quit being a secretary and live a leisurely life now?

“Rosaline, tell me what you want?” he asked as he stepped down from his chair.

“I want to quit.”

His eyebrows twitched slightly.

“Do you want to die?”

Your Highness, you never hold on to people who want to leave, so why’re you being like this to me? <<less

In a time and place where one's soul can be morphed into a weapon, there are modern-day magicians called Mage-Knights. Although Kurogane Ikki is a student at an institution that trains Mage-Knights, he has no particular talent in magic and is labeled the "Failure Knight" or "Worst One." Getting way less than average marks in the scorings, he was forced to repeat a year. But with the arrival of a new head of the institution, a new rule was created: knights whose abilities are compatible, as decided by the board, must share rooms and attend practice and training together throughout their school years to bring up their abilities to the max. It is a rule... more>> to implement the absolute verdict of ability.

Ikki's roommate, Stella Vermillion, turns out to be a princess of another foreign country. Stella is a Rank A knight: the type of genius in magic who only appears once a decade. When Ikki walked in on her while she was changing her clothes, it caused a huge misunderstanding, which eventually ended up in a duel between the two of them. The punishment for the losing side is Eternal Submission to the winning side.

Forced to live the same room and practice magic together throughout all their school years, how will Stella and Ikki's relationship evolve? <<less

“I mean, it’s not enough to kill the Philomel in the book for her mistakes!” Philomel shouted and threw the book she was reading. She was just curious about the suspicious book she picked up in the garden, but the Princess Philomel in the book, just die!

“Which big guy wrote a novel with the background of the real imperial family?”

On the day of the wedding, the bride was assassinated and killed.

The war triggered by my death has destroyed my home country.

“Forest, please… … .”

With my earnest prayer, I wanted God to turn everything back.

When I opened my eyes again, I was back to my childhood.

***

To protect the motherland, once again I entered a political marriage with the first Emperor of the empire.

I planned to stay quietly without being noticed by my husband…

“I was waiting for you.”

Kwanach Radon, a man who was a s*ave and then revolutionized and became emperor.

My husband, who I thought would be harsh and savage, is unexpectedly friendly only to me.

No, he is very kind, and that is the problem.

“You don’t have to lift a finger. All you have to do is sit back and relax. Don’t think of going anywhere.”

Overprotective or confined, I don’t know if I’m married.

My husband’s feelings are ambiguous whether it is passionate or obsessive.

Will it be okay like this? <<less

After transmigrating into an extra that will die at the hands of the villain, Olivia decides she must stop Kian from going down the wrong path in order to survive.

With so much money that it was rotting, I put the money to good use and bought the main character from the auction.

“I am Kian. From now on, I will serve you faithfully.”

In fact, the main character I came to know was a far cry from a bloody killer. I lived because I was a good person before the impending storm.

Until the main character wakes up as a wizard.

I thought my care and sincerity were successful in stopping his villainous route…

****

“Master, why are you trying to abandon me?” Kian said when I tried to burn his s*ave deed.

My heart shook at his pleading look and imploring voice. Strengthening my resolve soon, I said, “I’m just trying to set you free.”

“Master says she doesn’t need me anymore.”

“No, I didn’t–“

I couldn’t finish my thought. Kian narrowed the distance between us, bowing his head deeply. His face was so close, it was as if our lips were touching.

My heart unconsciously started to beat wildly. He whispered softly, burying his face on my shoulder, “I am yours, Master, so you may order anything…”

The certificate of sale flew into the air and fell into Kian’s hand. A moment ago, he, who had lowered his eyes bitterly, growled as low as a beast: “Just don’t tell me to leave. That order cannot be followed.”

What should I do?

It seems that the main character has turned into a yandere. <<less

Until Shen Qingxian went through a hundred years of closed-door cultivation, and spied upon heaven’s mysteries.

Words of heaven’s mysteries: For ten thousand years, no one in the cultivation world has ascended to the heavens. This is because the Heavenly Staircase has long since collapsed. The only way to set this right is to follow the directions of this jade scroll.

Yaoying transmigrated into a novel.... more>>

In the chaotic and troubled times, many nations were at war. Her father happened to be the most powerful of those vying for supremacy, her brother turning out to be the male lead that finally dominated the Central Plains.

As the male lead’s younger sister, Yaoying was ready to accept this benefit that came without her having to lift a finger.

But it turned out that the male lead hated her to the bone, going as far as to have her marry the sixty-year-old grassland tribal chief in place of the female lead.

Yaoying was forced to marry. Wolves in front, tigers in the back—beasts surrounding her—all coveting the lovely-as-a-flower Chinese princess.

At the moment of crisis, the novel’s young and legendary lord who was destined to die young passed through with his troops.

To escape from their clutches, the trembling Yaoying pointed at the sickly lord: This princess fell in love with you at first sight. If you won’t marry, I’ll seek you out with a dowry!

The lord’s subordinates paled with alarm: Princess mustn’t speak so casually! Our king is a monk, a noble-blooded Buddha’s son!

Yaoying, with a face full of grievances: This princess doesn’t disdain that you’re a monk. In life, I am your person; in death, I am your ghost!

Monk: ….

From then on, the tale of the Buddha’s son and the Chinese princess began to circulate through the grasslands.

Monk whose reputation couldn’t be cleared even if he plunged into the Yellow River: ….

….These wounds had made her look disgusting.

It was for this reason that the emperor abandoned the empress in the heavy snow.

Along with the sword that was stained with the blood of her family and friends.

**

Endless snow.

Left alone in a world that was blindingly white, Roselyn was willing to accept death.

There was no reason for her to live. She had no family, no friends, and no desires left.

She laid down her cold, freezing body on the white snow and gazed at the black sky.

The bitter cold soon thawed. It was then that she realized that freezing to death wasn’t so bad after all.

“You were banished to death, but you’re still lying here in this snow, as if you’re going to rule over it.”

This man.

“Your life….if you’re throwing it away, I’ll be more than happy to pick you up and take you away.”

Tamon Krasis, the enemy general.

“You are mine now, Empress.”

She was abandoned. He stole her and ran away. <<less

Her name was Asanagi-san. The boys in my class called her ‘The class’ second cutest girl’ behind her back.

On Fridays, she would refuse her best friend, Amami, ‘the cutest girl in class’ invitation just to hang out in my house with me.

Together, we played games, watched some movies, read some manga while eating junk foods like pizza and hamburgers, and chugging cola without a care in the world. To others, we may seem sloppy, but it was a precious, secret time together for Asanagi-san and myself. <<less

The male lead from a romance-fantasy novel, he’s a war fanatic. People call him ‘Demon’, a nickname filled with awe and fear. And I reincarnated as his wife.... more>>

If there’s a problem is that as soon as the original work starts, I was mu*dered as the ‘Wicked Previous Wife’ together with my own blood-related daughter.

My daughter that’s slated to die with me is a 5-years-old kid who’s boundlessly cute, while my husband is good-looking but scary.

I tried this and that to fix my bad-personality husband. But for me who isn’t the female lead, fixing his personality is impossible.

All right! First, I’m going to take my daughter and run away. Let’s think about the future after. <<less

It’s because he had killed everyone.

In this hopeless story devoid of any dreams, she was destined to be eaten alive by the protagonist. But before she could even meet them, her house was ruined.

Be devoured by the protagonist, or starve to death?

After much agonizing, she decided to sell herself.

The main character sealed the deal with a price of 5 billion Marcas.

It’s not such a bad deal for both the hero and her.

***

“How could a woman who sold herself in the slums be more important than the Emperor’s name?!”

The voice belonged to a young knight. The other knights hurried to restrain him, but the beans were already spilled. The captain of the knights apologized with a cold sweat.

“I apologize, Your Grace. I have nothing to say. This is all due to my incompetence.”

“No, it’s finished.”

Zahid drew his sword as he spoke gracefully.

While the knights were at their wits’ end, I approached Zahid. He glanced back at me, before turning back to the sword’s blade that shone in the moonlight. I reached out to him.

“Give me the sword.”

“I don’t want to. He insulted you.”

“No, that’s not it.”

I looked directly up at the knights that spoke such insulting words.

“I’ll stab you myself.” <<less

“Let’s get a divorce,” Chen Jinyao said.... more>>

She knew that she was only a supporting character in this novel world. The male lead only married her as a business relationship and, sooner or later, the female lead of the story would eventually show up.

If Chen Jinyao was indecisive about leaving, only heartbreak would follow.

Something pulled her thin white wrist, and next thing she knew, she was pushed down and pressed against a pillow. Yan Cheng’s peach blossom eyes bored into her in discontent as he declared, “Only in your dreams!”

When she fell asleep in Yan Cheng’s arms, she had a dream.

In her dream, she had turned 80 years old.

This is the story of Phoenix Wisdom King and a Grand Demon just awakened from Hell.... more>>

***

On an ancient battlefield, two armies stood in a stalemate. On one side were the Arhats, Gods, and Buddhas from the Heavenly Realm. On the other side were the monsters and demons from the Blood Sea of the Hell Realm.

The personification of that Grand Demon leaped forward, holding a long sword across his chest. He flew across the battlefield, brazenly cutting in half eleven Phoenix Bone Arrows, each of which was enough to destroy the world.

Then, he arrived in front of Phoenix Wisdom King, standing high above the masses:

“Your Highness, please don’t move—”

“I didn’t come to wage war. I came to propose to you.”

Phoenix was the Buddha’s inescapable Tribulation for thirty-thousand years, whereas Zhou Hui was Phoenix’s redemption that could free him from the fate of his eternal life.

After hundreds of thousands of years of endless light and shadow, this handsome yet devilish man finally emerged from Hell—

To bring Phoenix Wisdom King away from the transcendent Buddhist Kingdom and the boundless Lotus Sea.

“Let me follow you to that world. For you, I’ll be invincible forever—”

Guomen, 過門/过门, meaning marriage in Chinese. If explained literally, it means going past the gates/door-a reference to the Bible(see above).

Their past and future interwoven into a tangled, messed up web.

Thirteen years of sour and bittersweet memories. And seven years in between that washed out everything they had like water, leaving only stark, plain, throbbing dullness. <<less

Lu Feng, with her fiery character and short temper, only had one fatal weakness. That was the lukewarm and soft Xu Mu.

There were so many youths in the capital, yet she took fancy to none of them. She instead sought after her newly arrived neighbour’s sweetie and secretly planned to kidnap him home.

Until one day, the two became cousins…

Lu Feng: That fertilised water of our house cannot flow into someone else’s field!
