[Welcome to 『The Opponent of the Dragon』.]
“Oh my, the book talks!”... more>>

[I am a guide for travelers who have transmigrated into the novel.]
I possessed the body of Tiarozety Isol, a supporting character in 『The Opponent of the Dragon.』

The book will send me back to my world as soon as I complete the ending of the male lead, Lexion.

The problem is, I’ve never read this book before.

Besides…

[If the development of the story deviates from the original, the traveler gets a penalty right away.]
“Penalty?”

[Yes. The penalty is that the novel proceeds in the direction the traveler doesn’t want the most.]
“Oh my god.”

I was able to play the role of Tiarozety firmly. But then, I suddenly fell in love with the male lead, Lexion Sparrow.

“I’ll miss you.”

I was able to complete the ending by dying for him.

However- There was a problem with the ending. Thus, I returned to the beginning of the novel again. Somehow, I was sent back again inside the novel on my way home.

And-

“Titi, choose me. Not this damn fate.”

“………”

“Choose me, even if the path is rough. Because I’m ready for anything.”

And that’s how… Lexion, the male lead, began to cling onto me. <<less

“You shouldn’t have crossed this line, Elisha, if you didn’t want it to be like this.”... more>>

A sturdy arm wrapped around her swaying body. Her head became hazy and an intentional hot sweet sigh was pulled out of her.

‘How the hell did I get myself in this situation—’

Elisha recalled. This never happened before.

‘Yeah, I remember.’

Her future in which she would become the fake concubine to a demonic man from the same family, and would be eaten to death—even down to her bone marrow. A future in which the Cartier ducal family is embroiled in a power struggle and fragmented.

To avoid that future, Elisha threw herself at Lucerne, the archrival of her former life.

Yeah. There was no problem. She knew this man, before and after her regression. She already knew he was the most notorious maniac in the Empire.

20-year-old Elisha owes 30,000 gold coins (about 15 billion won in Korean currency or around 15 million in USD).

After going back in time, in order to avoid a hellish life because of debt, she becomes the most capable illegitimate child in the world and visits Lucerne, the archenemy of her master.

“What do you want from me?”

“Please lend me some money. And… make me your subordinate. I’ll give you all the information I have.”

“Why should I trust you?”

“I’ll give myself up as collateral.”

Lucerne listened to Elisha and watched her quietly.

“Okay. But I decide how to deal with the collateral.”

“…….”

“First of all, marry me.”

“…… huh?”

Elisha didn’t expect it either. That her information transaction would become a marriage contract. <<less

Ye Yunting, the unpopular first son of the Duke of Qi, was married by an imperial decree to Prince Yong’an, Li Fengqi.... more>>

Prince Yong’an defended the northern border and had killed countless enemies, deserving the title of the “War God of Bei Zhao”.

However, when Ye Yunting married him, this bed-ridden War God was already poisoned, his meridians severed.
　　　　
Ye Yunting was devastated by the marriage. Out of fear of the War God’s reputation, he hid in his own courtyard to live a life of peace. Not long after, he accidentally drank the poisonous soup given to the Prince of Yong’an and died.

Before his death, the Yong’an prince, who was said to be dying, half-knelt in front of his bed, held his hand, and solemnly promised, “You lost your life because of me. From now on, I will do my best to protect your loved ones, so go in peace.”

Later on, he ascended the throne as the emperor, and indeed honored his promise to shelter Ye Yunting’s only family.

In his second life, Ye Yunting still couldn’t avoid the fate of marrying Prince Yong’an. But this time, he decided to take good care of the dying man and repay his kindness from his previous life.

However, he did not expect the man to be cured and then to be impatiently pulled into his arms.

He was held tightly in the man’s embrace: “Follow me. From now on, I will protect you.”

When he was young, Fang Linyuan entered the palace. He saw a graceful figure in a single glance, and fell deeply in love. He was in unrequited love with Princess Huining for many years. ... more>>

Afterwards, he followed his father to guard the borders, and captured eighteen Beijiang cities, despite his young age. He returned in victory. All of it was for the sake of asking for Princess Huining’s hand in marriage.

Before, Huining’s mother had been ruined. Huining was thin and reclusive, having suffered neglect and humiliation. Yet she was still cold and unbending, like a pearl fallen in the mire.

Now, she was in the bloom of youth, striding through the palace with a vibrant crown. Her suitors filled the palace to bursting, yet no one could catch her eye.

That day, an imperial edict was declared to the realm, and the princess’s refusal was not allowed.

That night, the light of the red candles swayed, and a razor-sharp dagger met Fang Linyuan’s neck.

“Listen to my orders, or you’ll die without a complete corpse.”

Beneath the veil sounded the cold and unfamiliar voice of a young man.

***

Fang Linyuan received his long-sought wish, but the angel he dreamed of marrying as a boy turned out to be a man.

It turned out that Princess Huining, Zhao Chu, had been in disguise for many years, enduring humiliation and trials, just in order to protect himself in a den of tigers. He was waiting for a chance to take power and steal the throne.

And his marriage was nothing more than another layer of his disguise.

Fang Linyuan had nowhere to express his bitterness. He could only swallow his resentment and tuck away the sincerity he had paid in vain, wanting nothing more than to never see the false princess again.

But the marriage certificate was already written, and not only did he have to see Zhao Chu day after day, but he also had to put on a show of harmony and mutual respect with the false princess.

Fang Linyuan could only suffer patiently, being Zhao Chu’s false husband on one hand while waiting for war to arise on the other. Once it did, he would lead an army out of the capital, never to return.

But before the fires of war arose, there came the day when Princess Huining took power.

The throne was beneath him, and the officials bowed to him. Zhao Chu no longer needed to be Madam Fang.

Fang Linyuan offered him divorce papers, intending to retire from the capital and guard the borders.

Yet he saw Zhao Chu rip the divorce papers into tiny pieces with a cold expression, his eyes forbidding. Zhao Chu asked him why he started this mess only to abandon it at the end.

“But you’re a man,” Fang Linyuan explained.

Beneath the red candles, Zhao Chu’s face was luminous, just as when he had first seen him.

“Men have their good points.” <<less

In an empty classroom, a group of youths in battle fatigues surround a gasping girl as they hurl insults at her. A hand viciously grabbs her long hair, yanking it back to reveal a bloodied face. ... more>>

What is going on? Why am I here, surrounded by…students… when I'm supposed to be Yan Kingdom's strongest lone warrior!

Ye Yunxi furrows her brow briefly as the pain forces her eyes to snap open. Now, she resembles angry red spider lilies blooming with a vengeance.

Ye Yunxi, successor to the Ye clan, is considered a piece of tr*sh, a disgrace to the clan. The bullying she’s suffering now is by no means Ye Wanting’s first attempt to oust her, to gain the position of the Ye clan successor for herself.

Only, now, it is more than Ye Yunxi in this shell of a third year middle school student…

Ye Yunxi is rendered speechless. Character Attribute? Is she still in a dream? <<less

I woke up after everything had already fallen apart.... more>>

The game’s main protagonist was gone, and the protagonist’s fiancé was consumed by anger, avoiding everyone. In the country, a deadly disease was spreading.

The game’s ending was the worst possible, and I found myself in that awful world as the twin sister of the main character—an unfortunate ‘villain’ who caused my sister’s death.

“I’m in big trouble.”

My new life was ruined before it even started.

I was Fey O’Bellie, the twin sister of the main character, born into a prestigious family. But titles held no significance for me. I was merely branded as the ‘villain’ responsible for ending the life of the main character.

The ending was final and unchangeable. All I wanted now was to stay alive and keep quiet.

“Did I actually end Luné’s life solely because she was foolish, arrogant, and insufferable?”

Survival seemed impossible. Someone knew the truth and wanted to kill me—the stepbrother who loved the main character Luné, Deneb.

I have to get away from him.

…In a world where I was the cause of Luné’s death, someone loved by Deneb, how could I survive?

“Even a character from a messed-up ending like me wants to live, too, you know.”

Alright. I’ll escape then. <<less

The novel Chronicles of the Hero of Frosimar is a story about the failures of the protagonist not the successes.... more>>

“It’s not good.”

The First Emperor, who conquered the whole world, closed his eyes with a brief appreciation (after reading the novel).

But the moment he opened his eyes again, there were only a few lines about him in the Chronicles of the Hero of Frosimar.

This was because he became an imprisoned prince who met death with his first appearance (in the novel). <<less

Empress Renisha has lost her parents, her family, and been cast out of the imperial court because she married a mad emperor. Now there is only one thing for her to do. Revenge.... more>>

In preparation, she chose a new husband and ally but...... the more she looked at this man, full of vitality like a flame, the more she liked him.

"You know how to play pretty."

Was there ever a woman who could sway Kassius, the war hero, like this?

"I'm going crazy."

Kassius was not expecting this. He hadn't expected the seemingly stoic and noble Empress to be so vulnerable and sometimes endearing. <<less

The country had twin princes.... more>>

The younger brother had the greatest magical power of all successive royalty, while the elder brother was a ‘disqualified prince with no magical power’ with less than half the magical power of a commoner.

While he was treated coldly by his parents and despised by the nobles and servants in the royal court, the disqualified prince, Prince Schwartz pinned his hopes on the ‘Succession Battle’.

If he wins the succession battle, the eyes of those who have mocked him will change. With this in mind, he challenges his twin brother to a duel, but is defeated by a magical blow from his twin brother.

In despair, Schwartz runs away from the royal court and disappears. ……5 years later, he returns to the court after a major problem arises that shakes the country.

Enemies are killed. Women are seduced. The country is taken. The reversal of Schwartz, the ‘disqualified prince without magic’, is about to begin! <<less

In the history of geology, more than 500 million years ago, there was a period of the Paleozoic Era known as the Cambrian Period. This period, being the first period of the Paleozoic Era, does not only have a significant meaning for geological research, but also is the most insane, splendid and mysterious period in paleontological history.... more>>

Before the Cambrian Period, the Earth’s species were relatively monotonous. When the Cambrian Period started, just after millions of years, which is a relatively short period of time in terms of geology, all kind of species on Earth suddenly evolved wildly. Countless of invertebrates, arthropods, mollusks, brachiopods, annelids etc. have appeared on the planet without any warning, greatly enriching the diversity of the Earth’s species. This million years period is known as the “Cambrian Explosion”. And after billions of evolutionary years, the Earth today blooms with diverse lives.

The cause of the Cambrian Explosion is a huge mystery and also the biggest paradox of Darwin’s theory of evolution.

What if… the Cambrian Period is coming back in this era when human civilization has already conquered the entire planet, and the global species will once again evolve wildly, what kind of challenge will this planet encounter? What kind of fate will humans, who are falling from the top of the food chain, face? <<less

The Capital’s girls look on with hatred, “You’re just a country girl without any knowledge. Do you have Niyun Shop’s clothes? Do you have Brilliant Treasure Pavillion’s jewellery? Do you even know how eminent and domineering the famous Yue Wang is?"... more>>

Mu Yunyao looked at them lazily, “Niyun Shop? I opened it. Brilliant Treasure Pavillion? I opened it. As for Yue Wang…when are you returning my silver?”

Yue Wang’s face was cold: “I will pay with my body.”

(Wang means Prince. In this case, “Yue Wang” was a title given by the Emperor to his son.)

After being reincarnated, Mu Yunyao believes in three things: One, do not have good intentions towards others. Two, do not let the enemy have the chance to rise again. Three, do not believe in feelings. Thus, she is merciless. She is fearless. She would rather have everything destroyed than to compromise for everything.

However, after one fateful meeting, a cold-blooded prince keeps following her, silently plotting on making her his wife and bringing her back to pamper her… <<less

Princess Leah wrote a su*cide note ahead of her wedding.... more>>

It was because she was certain that she would die after the wedding night; a miserable end of a princess who devoted her life to the country and to the royal family.

But before giving up her life, Leah planned her last revenge to the family, one that would surely leave them in ruins even after she became a cold corpse.

She would bring them shame by being a non-virg*n bride.

“Why did you throw away your first experience? Don’t you just want to run away?”

“I… I want to die.” Leah impulsively confided to the man she slept with for one night. <<less

But out of all characters in this romance novel, why is it the princess who has the fate of dying to her own blood-related dad, the emperor!

If I want to live, I must not be seen by that emperor dad.

The later generations immensely revered Great Wei’s Jianan Emperor. During the period of his reign, Great Wei entered its golden era. ... more>>

Interestingly, all the records that glorified his accomplishments unanimously agreed that Jianan Emperor had only one flaw in his life: He favored only the imperial noble consort!

Zhou Tong was very annoyed. She time-traveled out of blue, didn’t even have time to take a breath, and yet, already had to deal with trouble.

What? The original owner of her body was a walk-on cannon fodder? She couldn’t even be regarded as a second female lead?

Zhou Tong is angry! Change, it must change! This plot needs a beautiful turnaround in order to be worthy of this big sister’s coquettish personality!

This is a story of the unfortunate time-traveling lass who possessed the body of a reborn aboriginal maiden and became the Great Wei’s beloved imperial consort. <<less

Her system said that if she wants to get back her godhead, she has to fulfill the male lead’s wish. As a result, she started the long road of attacking the male lead. ... more>>

The young boy’s eyes were sad: “You can only like me alone.”

The sick prince’s eyes were faint: “You said you will stay with me for a lifetime.”

The evil phantom emperor: “Little Su Yan, come here, my dear.”

Su Yan felt tangled. She just wanted to find her own godhead, how did she get tangled up?

Seeing that the look of the man in front was wrong, she immediately changed her words. “Yes, yes, all for you, I like you the most!”

The man was covered in blood, and approached step by step, muttering: “You said, you will stay with me, and you will never leave.”

Su Yan coaxed: “Well, I listen to you, let’s wipe this blood first, don’t scare others?” <<less

After his Empress Mother was deposed, she passed away, and his maternal Uncle made one mistake after another.... more>>

Lu Mingyu had always kept a low profile, counting down the days to when he could go to his fiefdom, wishing to stay away from the Capital.

However, his cautious behavior only earned him disrespect and humiliation, even to the point where he was sent to someone else’s bed with a drugged cup of wine.

After that night, when Lu Mingyu met the interested gaze of General Fuyuan, Yan Yunge, many years of sadness and hatred welled up inside his heart.

At that moment, Lu Mingyu finally realized that the consequence of not competing was to become a pawn in others’ hands.

So, he had to fight.

After several years of feigning courtesy and conformity, he was steadfastly determined to take revenge.

Then, the young Princes failed one by one, while the Emperor’s eldest son, whom none of the Ministers had ever taken seriously, finally ascended the throne.

After taking power, Lu Mingyu was determined to remove the General from his position.

After making the General drink a cup of poisoned wine, the Emperor thought back to the few good moments they shared in the past, and regret filled his heart as he realized the consequences of his actions.

However, the Emperor soon heard the news that the General hadn’t died, but had lost his memory instead.

Before Lu Mingyu could decide how to deal with the situation, he felt an unusual movement inside his belly….. <<less

Chu Xie transmigrates into a novel as a venomous, fragile beauty who torments the protagonist to the brink of death. The system tells him he must complete the storyline to return.

Chu Xie looks at the script: Frame the male lead, torture the male lead, and ultimately be killed by the male lead.

Heh, easy.

Rolling up his sleeves, he just starts tormenting the protagonist.

System: Host!! Another host has transmigrated to the wrong world, and now you must take on two people’s storylines by yourself.

Chu Xie: …?!

System: That guy had a white lotus script, which means you must protect the male lead, accompany the male lead, and ultimately die for the male lead.

Chu Xie: (╯°Д°)╯︵ ┻━┻

2.

Chu Xie has no choice but to play two roles.

During the day, he frames the young male lead.

At night, he saves the young male lead.

Finally, when he reaches the “death (retirement)” stage, he falls off his horse at a critical moment.

Seeing the male lead angrily and nervously knock over the poison wine in his hand, Chu Xie hears the system’s deafening scream.

“Host!!! Both character settings are about to collapse; you need to think of a solution!!”

That’s why I was saying, why did you give me two completely opposite character settings at that time!!!

Chu Xie touches his forehead and goes into acting mode: “Let me die, Your Highness. Only if I die can Chu Xie die… and he can no longer harm you.” Then, he performs a personality switch in front of the crown prince, and finally stabs a small knife into his heart, smoothly ending this life.

“…Host, you’re amazing!”

3.

Later, he didn’t die.

The little emperor who had sworn to cut him to pieces and avenge himself didn’t do anything.

He administered medicine to him every day and guarded him twenty-four hours a day.

“Zhen didn’t let you die, so you’re not allowed to die!”

Chu Xie: QAQ~

#I am the big boss and the white moonlight.

#I’m just an emotionless plot-driving machine, now that the plot is over, please let me die soon. <<less

Possessing memories of being born, raised and died in a country called Japan… the young boy Hercule was born in the imperial household of a declining empire.... more>>

This empire that once was a super power that reigned over the world… is now a country nearing it’s end. The public finances are in bankruptcy, the military strength declined to the point that barbarians are able to wreck havoc in their territories and the neighboring countries squeezed the Empire for tribute payments every year.

And the young Hercule is forced to take over this empire!

After her sudden death, she transmigrated through to the Chengye Dynasty and was a shu daughter of the Yin family in Jiangnan. Once liberated, she just wanted to do nothing but eat and wait to die as a salted fish.

House fight? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

Compete for favor? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

Looking for a good future? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

However, her older di sister who married the Xie family in Jiangnan passed away. Her di mother, because of her young grandson, chose Yin Mingyu after circling around in the courtyard.

Being a new wife was difficult, being a stepmother was even harder.

Yin Mingyu was never afraid of the di mother and spoke directly, “I don’t want to.”

The di mother also directly expressed her opinion: Not willing doesn’t work.

Yin Mingyu: “……then whatever.”

Anyway, she always lies flat. She will marry over in the future. Don’t blame her for just looking after her own happiness and interests. <<less
