"Elaina, Archduke Grant is coming to visit tomorrow....... Someone you like."... more>>

Diane's sobs reminded Elaina of a book. Every night, she read the same book over and over again in her dreams. In the book, “Moon Shadow,” Diane is sold off to become the wife of Archduke Grant due to family circumstances, preventing her from marrying the man she loves. The book ends with Diane, tired of her loveless marriage, taking her own life.

'This can't be happening!'

She had done so much to prevent Diane's misery. Now she can't stand by and watch her fall into the devil's maw.

"Don't worry, Diane."

Elaina took Diane's hand and reassured her.

"I'll take care of everything."

She will. Even if it means she herself marries him instead.

“You've interfered with every approach I've made to Diane Redwood, and now you're asking me to marry you?”

“Think of it more like a one-year contract than a marriage. We can give and take what we want from each other.”

Lyle Grant looked at Elaina with confusion.

“What on earth would you do that for?”

“I have a heart that won't let me turn away from a poor person.”

It wasn't just for Diane. Diane, the protagonist, Nathan, the love of her life, and Lyle and his younger brother. Everyone in "Moon Shadow" was unhappy, each for their own reasons.

“I promise, I'll be your wife for a year, but I'll do my best while I'm at it.”

Elaina smiled up at Lyle, her face full of confidence. She had a plan to make all the characters in the damn "Moon Shadow" happy. <<less

“Oh my God, such vulgar language! I guess this is why being a poor person can’t be helped.”

“Uh? But is there anyone among these people who is truly noble? You don’t give titles to women.”

It was a grand banquet held once a year, when Ray was playing the role of the ‘Witch of Ravidon’.

“Ramiel Ruivan has arrived!”

A handsome man with silver hair and golden eyes, a powerful man scheduled to inherit the title at the age of 22. When the man, known as a social angel, appeared, the commotion caused by the witch subsided.

“Good job. Alexis, you were very unlucky today. Now not even the dog will want to take you!”

Ray took advantage of the opportunity to escape to the terrace and eat alone, praising herself excitedly.

“Phew.”

The person behind the laughter that should never be heard right now is… It was Ramiel Ruivan, the ‘Angel of Ravidon’ who should have been at the center of the banquet!

***

A few days after running away from the banquet hall, Ray greets her bewildering guest.

“I wish to marry the young lady.”

“…I beg your pardon?”

Ramiel follows her to her house and proposes a contract marriage! Will Ray Alexis be able to achieve her dream of being peacefully single? <<less

“...”

"When I first saw you, it was in a dark alley, and the second time, we met in the evening and stayed together until late at night. And now, here we are, spending the night together again."

“Yeah, how have you been? I like you.”

“What are you talking about…?”

“I thought I was thinking inside, but it came out in words.”

“What flower is it?””

“I brought it for you. Do you like flowers?”

Ji Xiao Zhenren wielded his divine power, splitting mountains and parting seas, penetrating the heavens and the earth, known as the 'First Sword of Han Shan'.... more>>

Fellow cultivators respected him, disciples admired him, and demon cultivators feared him. If it weren't for his ignorant, incompetent, and inconsiderate Dao companion, he would have been almost perfect.

Meng Xueli's talent in cultivation was mediocre; he lacked a refined and ethereal demeanor and had never cultivated seductive skills. He was merely an ordinary beauty. The cultivation world was not short of beauty; being ordinary was almost synonymous with being tacky.

Ji Xiao unexpectedly took a liking to such a tacky Meng Xueli, revealing that cultivation does not necessarily elevate one from having bad tastes. His aesthetic judgment was indeed questionable.

It wasn't until the untimely demise of Ji Xiao Zhenren that Meng Xueli, at a young age, found himself widowed.

With the upheaval in the sect and enemies knocking at the door, chaos ensued. Eventually, with the collapse of the tree, the monkeys scattered, and the collapse of the wall, everyone pushed... pushed, but they couldn't move?! <<less

However, in the castle of the duke, I saw my young husband being abused for being a monster. I felt pity for my young husband and since he was more like a younger brother to me, I tried to be a little nicer to him…

“You are my miracle and my salvation.”

Only… I didn’t expect this kind of reaction at all?

Under the guidance of her obstinate father, Seizel had been living as ’the most perfect lady in the world’ until her demise as an unexpected mu*derer.

That very day when her miserable ten-year-long imprisonment was about to end with her beheading, her second life commenced.

I’m just not gonna give a f*ck!

I’ll screw them over before they screw me over!

I’ll chew them up and spit them out before they can leech off me!

No more Ms. Nice Girl. Now, Seizel decided to live however she wants!

While she was at it, she planned to become the greatest con artist who swindles the empire itself, and picked up some former cellmates to get the second act of her life going…

Why does it seem like the world’s gonna end when I’ve just made up my mind!

“……Open your eyes, you fine lad. I need to get my money’s worth.”

For a world that’s easier to exploit!

As a final, bite-the-bullet act of charity, she took in and patched up ’The Empire’s Last Guardian’ Duke Leviaus, saving him from the brink of death. Now, all he has to do is bring glory to the empire……

Wow. What kind of a sucker is this?

“About who saved me, I cannot remember anything.”

The person who saved him is me, yet I’m about to be done dirty by randos, hell no.

Thus, unintentionally gaining the title of duchess, Seizel kickstarts her ’getting her money’s worth’ project.

“As long as you pay the promised fees on time, I will act as the perfect duchess for a year.”

“That would not be necessary. Everything in this house belongs to Your Ladyship anyway.”

But this man was a sucker of another level that was never before seen or heard. Courteous, pushy, clingy.

“W-what are you doing here, Your Grace?”

“It’s our first night together, my lady.”

A man who seemed infinitely distant and did not seem human.

“Duke Baloch.”

The man who would tear me to death, the poor duke who lost his ancestral Duke at the hands of her father, The Emperor.

He laughed when Bianca called in a trembling voice. Sweetly, not like a smile directed at me, the daughter of an enemy.

And then he slowly called Bianca.

"Yes, madam?”

I was a sacrifice. An imperial sacrifice offered to the angry dragon of Termina.

“Duke?”

“The word 'Duke' feels too distant. Please call me Jillian, madam.”

“.......”

“Husband and honey are fine too.”

The beauty of a smiling man..

The man was crazy sweet. So much so that my heart was pounding without even knowing the reason. <<less

“You broke your promise.”

“What do you mean all of a sudden?”

“You say you won’t let me go crazy?”

“I did it, didn’t I? Now that the madness is all settled, we…”

Arpad hugged me tighter, as if to stop me from trying to escape.

“No, I’m already crazy,” Arpad whispered in my ear, breathing hot. “Who do you think it’s because of whom?” he asked, slowly raising my head to meet Arpad’s red eyes, unable to move his body with nervousness.

“No way, because of me…?”

“Yes. So you’re responsible.”
