Poor theater actor Lee Soo-hyun.... more>>

He fainted after being hit by a falling light, and when he opened his eyes, he possessed a character in “The Blue Knight of the Holy Sword”, a novel that was discontinued due to unpopularity.

What's more, he transmigrated into the body of Arendt von Eckhart, who betrayed the Knights Templar and was destined to be executed soon.

The only thing left for the character who has completed his or her role on stage is to exit. In other words, there is only death... Character interpretation can vary depending on the actor playing it.

“Please take care of me, you traitorous bastard.”

In order to survive, he must create a role other than that of Arendt, the 'traitor', even if it means twisting the story.

Now, the life-threatening method acting begins! <<less

One day, my sister breaks up with the male lead.... more>>

I couldn't bear to see her all gloomy, so I took it upon myself to find that knight.

The plan was simple: deliver my sister's sincerity and patch things up.

However, when I finally reach the place, that knight is nowhere to be found...

"I don't care if you're a man or an alien anymore."

"Well, actually, I am an alien!"

"That just makes it even more exciting."

Instead of meeting the person I want to see, I met a crazy man.

* * *

It was a dreadful first encounter. I was trembling with fear, but I couldn't let myself give up just like that. Determined, I chose to quietly observe and bide my time, waiting for the perfect opportunity to meet the male lead alone, just like a shadow.

However, a small problem arose.

"It's better to give up."

"What do you mean all of a sudden...?"

"I have no intention of just watching while you turn your attention to another man."

It seems like this crazy man was seriously misunderstanding something.

* * *

I am Charlotte La Bravant, a woman who never gives up.

After much effort, I achieved my goals and quickly escaped, basking in the joy of success. And why wouldn't I succeed? I’m the younger sister of the esteemed Marquess Bravant, also known as the dazzling rose of the high society after all!

"Did you think you could escape and I wouldn't find you?"

"H-how did you...?"

"You've become even more beautiful since I last saw you. So, was that man's embrace warm?"

"What?"

The duke's eyes grew more intense as he said that. <<less

The Dayu Dynasty, weathered by countless hardships, remains in its era of prosperity.

In the northwest, a young man travels nine thousand miles on foot, single-handedly slaying a great demon, striving for lifelong glory.

At Dragon Lake, an unparalleled master descends to the mortal world, founding a sect that will be remembered for centuries.

In the imperial capital, a sage preaches to thousands, his disciples spread across the provinces, leaving an eternal legacy.

And within a martial family estate in Qingzhou City,

Zhu Xiang, a professor of agriculture, found himself transported to the chaotic era of the Warring States in the Zhao Country. After much hardship, his life began to improve. His elder sister, who had run away with a wealthy merchant, left her nephew in his care, explaining that she had formed a relationship with another wealthy merchant and couldn’t take care of the child.... more>>

An indignant Zhu Xiang initially considered giving the child to someone else, but then he learned that the child’s name was Zheng, and his father was none other than Sun Yi, a noble from the Qin state. Zhu Xiang was bewildered. “My nephew is Ying Zheng? But my sister’s name isn’t Zhao Ji; it’s Chunhua!”

Determined not to let the future First Emperor disappear from history, Zhu Xiang decided to grit his teeth and tighten his belt to raise the young Emperor Qin. With a “ding,” the cultivation system came online, and he could exchange goodwill with historical figures for superior crops. Tears filled Zhu Xiang’s eyes as he kissed the young Emperor Qin on the forehead. “Truly worthy of being the Future First Emperor! You’re amazing! Just watch, your uncle will cultivate a vast empire for you!”

Many years later, Emperor Qin Shi Huang would still recall his childhood memories. His uncle held his small hand and walked through endless fields, pointing to the vast golden fields that stretched to the horizon. “Zheng, my nephew, your uncle has a dream – to plant superior crops across all the lands bathed in the sun and moonlight, so that everyone in the kingdom can have enough to eat.”

“Uncle, Zheng can conquer all the lands under the sun and moon and give them to you for farming, how does that sound?”

“Ah? Hahaha, that sounds great!” His uncle let out a hearty laugh, lifting him onto his shoulders. “Wherever Zheng’s kingdom expands, your uncle’s fields will follow.”

A large hands firmly holding onto the smaller one. “It’s a promise.”

Jiang Huai transmigrates into the body of a privileged young master from an influential family. Before he can enjoy the riches and luxury, his family is disgraced and sent into exile, embarking on a long and arduous journey.... more>>

Fortunately, the heavens don’t close all doors. Jiang Huai realizes he has transmigrated into a novel. Five years later, a new emperor will ascend the throne, and the Jiang family will be exonerated, rising once again to prominence.

The problem? Jiang Huai is a mere cannon fodder character who dies of illness during the exile, never living to see the day of glory.

Jiang Huai paints a rosy future for his new protector: “I’ll reward you greatly for your help. In five years, you’ll live a life of wealth and comfort.”

The “big brother” remains silent, and Jiang Huai assumes he’s just shy.

Fast forward five years. Jiang Huai has built a modest fortune on the frontier and eagerly awaits the news of the new emperor’s enthronement and the subsequent pardon. Excited, he travels to the capital to reunite with his “big brother,” ready to make his mark in the bustling city.

But when he sees his “big brother” seated on the emperor’s throne, Jiang Huai is stunned. He turns to flee, only for the new emperor to block his way with a deep gaze.

Raven Griffiths—a scoundrel, a degenerate, a s*ave to lust, and the last surviving heir of a baronial family...... more>>

And he was about to become the blood sacrifice for a ritual.

With no way back, he could only charge forward, relying on his calm and cunning to break free from certain death.

But the real crisis was only just beginning.

Greedy nobles, corrupt officials, a rigid Church, savage foreign races, and ruthless cults—fate was baring its ferocious fangs at Raven.

He had no choice but to rely on the knowledge and intellect brought from Blue Star, along with the instincts and experience ingrained in this body, to amass wealth, expand his territory, and build his power—crushing crisis after crisis that loomed on the horizon.

From baron, to viscount, to count, marquis, duke, and ultimately—king!

…

Years later, “Queen Collector, Imperial Marquis of the Elven Empire, Khan of the Glorious Orcs, Conqueror of the Bloodsoaked Highlands, Sovereign of Continent and Sea, Protector of All Living Beings, the Living God” Raven sat upon his throne, clad in armor and solemnly declared:

“Many claim I seized the crown through madness, shamelessness, deceit, and cunning.

But that is utter slander!

Everything I have achieved came from the wisdom, nobility, elegance, and mercy that run in my very blood!”

…

The tides of history can never be judged by mere right or wrong.

There are blades glinting beneath soft silk, betrayals lurking behind shifting clouds, and grand performances hidden within layers of scheming!

mu*der etched upon the face, mercy kept in the heart—and in the end, fate left to the heavens.

Transmigrating into a comic as the cannon fodder——Normally entails one holding on to the protagonist’s reliable thighs to ensure a smooth life ahead... more>>

Either the thighs of the male and, or female lead

Or the thighs of the antagonist

Regardless, one can enjoy being sheltered from the elements

The thighs will be there, but all sawn off!

In this world destined for ruin in war:

2. Stay far, far away from the male lead. Live as removed from the troubles brewing throughout the world as possible, and enjoy what little peace there will be

Anyone who thinks in a remotely human way will pick option 2

Right?

Villain—ah, such a beautiful word. Let the world be destroyed.

　　

——

Claire, who just came back from the battlefield, received the first marriage proposal of his life. The empire’s marshal facilitated it, the royal family acted as matchmaker, and the other party’s identity was of utmost nobility.

He was surprised that a male zerg would be willing to marry a female zerg who couldn’t bear children.

After much deliberation, Claire decided to accept, though his Male Lord seemed a bit odd.

One moment he wore a gentle smile, and the next, he was quietly drawing a knife.

Claire’s impression of his Male Lord was still from a brief, stunning glimpse years ago. He didn’t think much of it and assumed it was just the male zerg’s little temper.

Until he couldn’t resist getting closer, only to see the male zerg’s other side.

In a dimly lit room.

　　

Tang Jun, holding a tool, approached with a cold sneer: “You forced me to this.”

Claire was silent for a moment, his face flushed. “So, this is what you like?”

Tang Jun: “?”

2. Probably a sand sculpture, neither the gong and shou are normal.

3. The gong is truly a big shot, the kind who rebels at the drop of a hat.
