From the time I met and fell in love with you until the time you met me, this is the tale of a miracle.... more>>

I underwent a heart transplant when I was 13, and I’ve been dreaming about being a girl ever since.

I’m sure this is the person’s recollection who became the donor.

I fell in love with her right away because she was cheerful, vivacious, and happy.

It is a love that will never be reciprocated. She and I are never going to meet. We are unable to speak or touch one other. And yet—

I want to meet her.

I want to talk with her.

I want to touch her.

I want to… save her. <<less

Dahlia Von Klose who possesses two powers at the same time and the Fifth Returner [5th time regressor] Jurgen Axel Edelred.... more>>

In order to survive one more day, the two desperately needed each other.

Kissing Dahlia’s white legs up to her knees, he felt a distinct satisfaction.

Even if it’s a new presence in her world, yes. There is nothing different from the others. With a remorseful expression she’ll push him away saying don’t do this. She’ll hide the joy of having a higher status person with a dignified, proud face kneel before her, promising that he will grant anything she wants.

Grasping her heel, he swept up her soft calf and grabbed the back of her knee. Then he looked up at her as she trembled like her frightened bird.

Ha!

However, the moment Dahlia’s eyes met his, a chilling sensation of pleasure ran through Jurgen’s back.

Covering her mouth, Dahlia was holding back a burst of laughter, like someone who had seen a gruesome comedy. With her sight full of the kneeling man at her feet, she showed an unhidden scorn.

Unconsciously his grip grew stronger on Dahlia’s leg. Then she flinched and bent forward towards Jurgen. She still hadn’t erased a feeling similar to contempt in her eyes.

“What are you up to? Sir Edeled.”

It was a voice sweet as poison.

Smiling, Jurgen let her legs go, then got up on his knees. Following the dark red eyes that became cold in an instant, Dahlia’s held his stare.

The mask of the noble Jurgen Axel Edelred had cracked. The man’s eyes looked down obliquely and then grew long in a smile as he swept back his flowing bangs.

“Ah… . Did I get caught?” <<less

Zhou Xun had resigned himself to a life of perpetual suffering. His brother was the Emperor's beloved, the beauty mark on a tyrant's face. And he? He was a poor imitation, living in the shadow of his brother, a cheap gift sent by his brother to the Emperor as a substitute.

Herbert, the son and heir of House Unruh, has been abusing his position and living as he pleased. Because of spoiled nature and bulging belly, those around him have been mocking him with the name “Swine Noble”.... more>>

The once wealthy and powerful Ryuuzen clan has been all but destroyed. Their misfortune began in 1960, when a majority of the family was wiped out when their vacation villa was buried under a landslide. However, search and rescue teams discovered something even more shocking: A majority of the bodies they discovered showed obvious signs of having been mu*dered before the landslide.... more>>

As though it were a trigger, what came to be known as "The Curse of the Ryuuzen Clan" spread throughout the descendants of the family's only survivor. By mu*der, by su*cide, by accident... it seemed none who held the name "Ryuuzen" could live to see the age of 35, and now, the family has been reduced to a single woman, lying in a hospital bed, days away from death.

Kamo Touma was once just another of the endless parade of sleazy tabloid journalists looking to exploit a prominent family's tragedy to sell magazines, but Ryuuzen Rena's kindness melted his frozen heart, driving him to quit his old job and become an investigative journalist specializing in overturning cases of false arrest. Eventually, he and Rena were married, but now, the curse threatens to steal away their happiness.

Kamo prays for a miracle, and his prayers are answered by the Hourglass of Miracles, an artifact spoken of in rumors and urban legends, said to grant one wish to anyone who obtains it.

"Meister Hora", a guide for those who obtain the hourglass, tells Kamo there is only one way to break the curse and save Rena: He must travel back in time to the year 1960 and catch the culprit of the original Ryuuzen Family massacre.

Who was the culprit of the mu*ders that took place almost 60 years ago? Why did they steal away the lives of the Ryuuzen clan? What is the true nature of the "Curse of the Ryuuzen Clan?" And perhaps most mysteriously of all... What is Meister Hora's goal in all this?

Yokodera is just like every teenage boy: perversion is in his nature. He can’t help but look up girls’ skirts and fantasize about them. However,... more>> in his case, every time he does something pe*verted, it somehow gets turned around and misunderstood as something positive for the community. Sick of being so pe*verted, he tries to shake free of it by going to a special part of town. On top of a hill, away from the town and at the foot of a large tree, there is a wooden sculpture of a beckoning cat that is said to have special powers. Instead of bringing a wish to the user like a typical beckoning cat, it takes something from the user, and, in Yokodera’s case, his perversion. Still doubtful, he uses the beckoning cat thinking that it couldn’t hurt to try, but, little does he know, his life is about to make a turn to the unexpected. <<less

When Jiang Huaian went on a blind date with Xia Jiujiu, he said that when he was in high school, he had a good temper, good grades, four bare walls for a home¹, and in dire straits. He was bullied by his classmates, shunned by the goddess, having never felt love and care. Thus, Xia Jiujiu’s compassionate heart burst. She took him to the movies and went to the amus**ent park, doing everything he hadn’t done before when he was a youth, and then…became his wife. ... more>>

One day, she went back to when she was sixteen. Xia Jiujiu carried a brick and a bag of cash with her as she headed to the City’s No. 1 High School to find Jiang Huaian, determined to give him a good memory of his youth. Overthrow all those who bullied him, and eliminate all the evil forces!

Xia Jiujiu: “Excuse me, is the Jiang Huaian in your class here? The one with good temperament, good grades, four bare walls for a home, and was in dire straits?”

Jiang Huaian, who is carrying a brick to go out and fight, was stunned: “Who? Who the hell are you talking about?”

Xia Jiujiu: “…”

So Xia Jiujiu found out that what Jiang Huaian needed the most was not money or love, but a set of sample university exam questions. Don’t casually believe others; this was the most profound truth of life taught to Xia Jiujiu by this flirtatious melodramatic little brother Jiang. <<less

Shen Jie found himself in the body of a passerby in a post-apocalyptic novel. The passerby was an ordinary person without any superpowers, just a low-level employee at the research institute. Besides conducting experiments, his usual role was to liven up the atmosphere by clapping and shouting “666”.... more>>

Shen Jie was quite satisfied with this new identity and even found a suitable partner along the way. Although his partner often went on business trips and was taciturn, he had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, capable of doing half a month’s work in a day. With this new life, Shen Jie felt content and happy every day.

After living an ordinary life for seven years, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind: “Do you want to change the fate of a cannon fodder, experience an extraordinary life? Do you want to find the meaning of life, save the broken world? The Cannon Fodder Reversal System is at your service!” “I don’t want to,” Shen Jie replied without hesitation.

The system felt depressed. It had accidentally come online seven years late, only to find its bound host wanting to live a simple life with his partner, ignoring the impending doom of the world. Even as the world was on the brink of destruction, they were still in love—

Until one day, the system discovered a secret. The soul of the host it was bound to seemed to be the culprit behind the world’s destruction.

…Help, host, please just remain an ordinary person!

Many people in the Center of Abilities knew that Zong Lin had a beloved person he cherished dearly. This cold and taciturn human, one of the strongest superpower users, after piercing the hearts of the aliens with his spear every time, would take out the pocket watch his lover gave him and kiss it gently with his deformed hands. It was like a deep prayer, as if he were willingly trapping himself in a tender prison of love.

Rumors had it that Zong Lin’s beloved was just an ordinary person with no strength to speak of, except for a pretty face. One day, Zong Lin’s beloved was abducted by an SSS-level alien. Zong Lin went berserk, leading a group of people into the alien’s nest. There, they saw Zong Lin’s beloved holding a knife to the alien’s neck, smiling sweetly: “Two choices. One, you extend your neck for me to stab. Two, I push the knife in. Which one will you choose?” <<less

Lu Yan lives in the most horrific and absurd world.... more>>

People here live in harmony and contentment and were oblivious of all paranormal occurrences.

People here were sacrificed to the living, and the children were eaten like lychees—first the skin was peeled off, then the soft flesh was nibbled into.

Bai Fanlu transmigrated into an immortal cultivation novel as a villainous demon lord.... more>>

In the original novel, the demon lord was originally in the ranks of the immortal class and had a promising future. Unfortunately, he fell in love with the male lead, became a villain for his sake, and ended up with his soul disintegrated.

Bai Fanlu objected to this idiotic plot. The reason for the demon lord to become a villain was not the least justified. He was obviously a decent gentleman! The most important reason, of course, is that the demon lord and him share the same name.

System: [Giving you a chance to prove yourself.]
Bai Fanlu: [?]
System: [Persevere and do not become a villain to the end, and you can return home when the male lead is done with saving the world.]
Bai Fanlu: […What if I become a villain?]
System: [Then of course you will end up as cannon fodder.]

Bai Fanlu has a plan. In order to not become a villain, he has to adhere to three principles:

Do not have any physical contact with the main lead.

Do not have any grudge entanglement with the main lead.

Do not have any emotional interaction with the main lead.

However, nothing went as planned…

1. The first day Bai Fanlu escaped from the mountain, he was carried back to the Sect by the main lead in full view of everyone.

All the female disciples: “Sect Leader is so considerate to Shixiong.”

Bai Fanlu: “…”

2. When Bai Fanlu was about to go out of control with his cultivation, the male lead risked his life to unblock his meridians to keep him from harm.

All the male disciples: “Sect Leader was willing to sacrifice his life to save another, such a righteous man and deserving of our admiration.”

Bai Fanlu: “…”

3. The cliff below was an endless abyss, and according to the original plot, he will be pushed down into the 10,000-feet deep demon pit.

Bai Fanlu thought to himself, ‘Am I doomed to become a villain?’

As he was getting desperate, a figure descended from the sky, throwing out a long, colourful damask to him, snatching him out of the red lotus fire and carrying him up into the sky.

Under the divine tree, above the sea of clouds and mountains, the young man forcibly trapped him, with a darkness swirling in his eyes he said, “Shixiong…are you trying to leave me? I will not allow it.”

Bai Fanlu: “…”

Bai Fanlu: “So, who exactly is becoming the villain in the end?” <<less
