I managed to get myself thrown into a story as a stepmother so jealous of her daughter that she tried to kill the girl with a poisoned apple.... more>>

I’d love it if I could shower my cute and lovely Blanche with all sorts of affection, but–

“Hilarious. Since when did you like Blanche so much?”

This god-damned husband keeps getting in my way!

“I am Blanche’s parent as well. I demand an apology for being so suspicious of me.”

“And if I don’t?”

“I’ll visit your bedroom tonight, your majesty.”

“…..”

“I even managed to get some really sexy panties just for you.”

With a big smile on my face, I struck him with a critical hit.

“I could show it to you right now if you’d like?”

The look on his face was truly something to behold.

I lifted my chin, and looked down on him victoriously. <<less

On one spring evening when I was eight years old, I, Erica, Duke of Aurelia’s daughter, realized something.... more>>

Huh, I have reincarnated into a fantasy world, haven’t I?

Moreover, it was the romance-fantasy girl game that had the reputation of being bloody, 『Liber Monstrorum ~Phantom Beasts and the Winter Princess~』

The face reflected in the mirror was that of the villainess character of that game.

After repeatedly harassing many characters, including the heroine, she would die without exception, signaling the beginning of an event called the bizarre incident. She was a villain who deserved to get the consequences!

—I absolutely don’t want a destiny like that, though?

No, since I have remembered the memory of my previous life, I will make sure that kind of thing does not happen.

In my previous life, I was harassed immensely by an irrationally angry yandere man who thought I was in love with him.

My cause of death, too, was from being stabbed by another yandere man who I only had talked with a few times…

Now that I have become the haughty villainess Erica, I shouldn’t encounter more misunderstandings like with the previous life’s yandere men anymore, right…?

In that case, it will be fine as long as I deal with the death flags that I may have raised myself.

All right! First of all, before the bizarre incident begins at the Magic Academy, I will strike down the death flags accordingly!!

—Or so I thought, but it seems that I am about to die.

Eeh, how did this happen—!? <<less

Qin Zheng transmigrated into the role of the Princess Consort,... more>>

but Qin Zheng, an engineer dispatched to a foreign country, didn't get the script for a palace drama, nor did she have the chance to experience the luxurious life of a Princess Consort.

Because, the nation had perished.

A eunuch held three feet of white silk and said, "Your Highness, the city has fallen. Please leave with dignity."

Qin Zheng: "..."

What kind of beginning was this?

In order to avoid being forced to commit su*cide, Qin Zheng had no choice but to go to the bed of her half-dead husband, the Crown Prince, and pretend to be deeply affectionate, shedding a few tears to delay time.

Emperor Chu Chengji, founder of the Great Chu Dynasty, was valiant and skilled in warfare.

He conquered the northern barbarians and drove out the southern savages, ushering in the prosperous era of Xuan Chu.

He spent his entire life in battles, without a wife or concubines.

Consequently, after his premature death, only a young scion from a collateral branch was selected to succeed him.

He departed during the peak of his prosperous reign, only to open his eyes and find himself at the time of his nation's demise!

He was reincarnated as the current Crown Prince, his own nephew of many generations.

Learning that the territory he had opened up in the past was directly lost, the Emperor of the founding dynasty couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

How useless were these descendants?

Back then, he could establish this long-standing empire single-handedly, and today, he could rebuild it!

As for this stunningly beautiful Princess Consort, who cried so pitifully in front of him, the Emperor of the founding dynasty was extremely disdainful:

"Women would only hinder his speed of restoration!"

Later, the Emperor of the founding dynasty would knock on the door of the Pepper Room every night and ask, "Azhen, can I come back to sleep?" <<less

Chen Mobai, a male protagonist and a third-year student of Xianmen, is currently working hard to review and prepare for the entrance exam of the Daodao Institute. ... more>>

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.

Can the demon realm truly find peace? <<less
