I dreamed of becoming a successful designer.... more>>

But, I failed.

‘If I ever go back in time, I would take back everything that belongs to me.’

It was the lament of someone who missed his chance 3 times.

But I was serious in my own way.

‘If only I could start over just like in a webnovel.’

It had already been too late.

Modern fantasy is still one’s imagination.

The moment I thought about it, my life became a modern fantasy. <<less

I finally thought I had died... but for some reason, I was reborn. Moreover, as the baby Imperial Princess of the enemy nation, Elonia!... more>>

"I only came to check if you were dead or alive, so don't be a nuisance. There won't be a second chance for forgiveness."

On top of that, the Emperor of the enemy nation, who had promised to fulfill my Last Will before I died, was breaking my Last Will in real time.

Not only was it unfair that I was reborn, but I was also being treated like a good-for-nothing again. How could this be?

Elonia vowed.

'This time, I'll definitely kill you.'

Just you wait, Emperor. As soon as I'm old enough to wield a sword, your neck will be the first thing I take!

"Baa!"

...First, let me learn to speak properly. <<less

Jung Jiheon was once a promising swimmer, but retired early due to an injury and is now working diligently at a sports agency. Currently, the greatest interest in the sports market is none other than Kwon Jaekyung, and numerous agencies are fighting fiercely behind the scenes to scout him.... more>>

In the meantime, Jiheon is ordered by his boss to somehow lure Jaekyung into his agency, and he miraculously succeeds thanks to their insignificant and brief relationship of going to the same swimming center 10 years ago.

However, when they agree to meet for the first time in a long while, Kwon Jaekyung is not interested in the terms of the contract. He just suddenly asks about Jiheon’s second gender…. <<less

"Do you want your passport back?"... more>>

He stared straight at her eyes that were clearly shining under her short bangs.

"…Give it back."

"Then you will have to work hard for it."

While she was chewing the meat in her mouth hard, the next piece of meat came into her mouth right after. Avoiding it was not as simple because she thought the fork would become a weapon in this man's hand.

The meat that she barely chewed and fell over her neck in chunks.

"What should I do to get it back?”

"While growing up, did no adults tell you this? You can't just say what you want, so don't say it like that."

A large chunk of meat could not fall over and felt stuck somewhere in her throat. Sarin clenched her fist and tapped her chest.

"Hmm…"

"Well, if you'd just spent that money on laundry, we wouldn't have had a chance to face each other like this. Don't you think so?"

It was a simple favour until the money was received, and then it was malice. Owen's interest borders on malice. His golden eyes glistened. It looked like a completely crazy look, it gave her goosebumps from the inside of her wrist.

"…My flight is just around the corner. I have to go back."

Not interested in feeding anymore, he laid down his fork carelessly. She could hear the sound of metal hitting the plate.

"That's your situation."

Word is that her situation is not over yet. <<less

Joo Yi-Gyeol, who sleeps 22 hours a day has Rostov Syndrome.... more>>

Learning to escape from the body while asleep, he follows a golden butterfly he encountered one day and crossed to another dimension.

And there, he met the 4th prince Seth and saved him multiple times…

* * *

“Who said you could die as you please?”

Seth’s hands wrapped around Yi-Gyeol’s face. His cheeks, wrapped in those big hands, felt excessively hot.

“You can’t die even if you want to.”

Seth’s face came close. His and Yi-Gyeol’s foreheads lightly touched.

“I am the owner of your body. You can’t die without my permission.”

Yi-Gyeol could just inwardly shed tears at Seth’s mysterious remarks. <<less

In the pit of blood, which proved to be the site of a demon summoning, there were the remains of twelve bodies without their hearts.... more>> Then, in the center of the pentagram, the scattered corpse slowly rose. The tattered pieces of flesh clumsily stitched themselves together, and it gazed down at itself. "I guess it's going to be a little tough," muttered the seventh great demon of Hell, scratching its cheek. The shell it had possessed was that of a girl born of s*ave blood. She had to become the noblest of rulers on earth with this body. <<less

Enter FBI agent Wayne Boyd, who infiltrated the Benedetti family, and his wife, Liliana Boyd, who secretly assisted in the investigation.

In the distant past, before everything happened, and even before she met Wayne.

“I heard there's a jazz bar, and I wanted to know if they had any openings for vocalists.”

No death would be in vain in this life, so she turned on a whim and stepped into the darkness.

"At least let me sing a song."

And the man who had taken her life, Theodoro Benedetti. He pushed her through the mud and shoved her back repeatedly.

As if he wanted her to return to the world of light and sunshine.

It was a ridiculously good intention.

"Nobility and innocence are the hardest things to keep in life, and I've given you many chances to go back."

"...Did I ask you to? Have I asked you to protect my nobility and innocence?"

A hollow laugh, like a sigh, escaped from his lips.

Theodoro gazed into space with a bitter, scornful expression, and drew his pistol. He pointed it at the man and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Bang!

...Bang!

It was a deliberate miss. The man screams in agony.

With two bullet wounds in his thighs, the man slumped to the ground. Flinging Liliana's back in front of him, Theodoro ordered.

"Then kill him."

I chose the darkness, to bring back the light…

The brightest days of my life are fading into the darkness beyond. <<less

I’m sorry.

Hajae and Sang reunite again seven years later. The child Hajae met at the orphanage had grown up and become ‘Simeon,’ an S-class hunter and leader of the ‘Apostles’ guild

I was obviously hit by a truck and died, but when I opened my eyes, I woke up as an eagle. While I was adjusting to my new life, I happened to encounter Theodore, the final villain in the original novel, in the forest. ... more>>

I tried to ignore him somehow so as not to lose the new life I had been fortunate enough to gain, but…

“Thank you for coming.”

The man who hated everything and would set the world on fire was sweeter than I thought.

“I was a little lonely, you see.”

He was a man who could not be ignored and thrown away.

In the end, while trying to save him, I got hit in the wing by an arrow.

“Come with me. My name is Theodore. If you go to my palace, I will give you a pretty name too. And punish those who betrayed me and hurt you. Just be patient.”

Suddenly, I ended up entering the imperial palace.

However…

“You always say pretty things with that pretty mouth. When will you stop being so lovable?”

It was a big problem because the final villain kept trying to hypnotize me. <<less

Together, the two navigate a world of chaos.

“If you think your life will be in jeopardy while saving me, then leave me. I don’t want to go there.”
Tae-baek, who tried to speak calmly,

“I won’t leave you alone. No matter what happens, I won’t leave.”

Tae-baek discovers the tenderness hidden in Shin-hu’s indifference, Shin-hu soaks in Tae-baek’s reckless affection.

“Do you like me? I think I will fall in love in a few days. I get that feeling.”
“…”
“And maybe, you will love me too.”

Shin-hu chuckles without answering.

‘Lil Schweiz’, a famous pirate in the southern seas.... more>>

While on a smooth voyage, shocking news fell upon her.

“The Admiral is coming.”

Despite the hot weather, chills ran down her spine. Lil took her eyes off her hands and looked up at Alain, the boatswain.

Not that she didn’t hear him, but she wanted to check again.

“Who?”

“The Admiral of the Peninsula! That madman! Admiral Retiro!”

That infamous admiral, known for skinning the heads of pirates he captured and throwing their limbs as food for the cannibal fish, the one with an eccentric and bizarre reputation will come to the South.

“It will be for the best to not cross his path. We should get out of here before he arrives!”

But there’s one thing that Lil doesn’t know…

[I, Lil, are notifying you, Ed, that you’ve been punished respectfully according to the Sesbron etiquette.]
…It’s a setup!

I’ve come back to life as a prophet in a B-grade horror film that bombed at the box office in the summer of 1999 and faded into obscurity.... more>>

Luckily, I managed to survive, not as the female lead who witnesses all the horrors, nor as the handsome male lead who you’d expect to survive but tragically dies. I’m not the sleazeball who gets offed in a particularly gruesome way after hitting on every woman in sight, nor the best friend of the female lead who shares a fleeting romantic moment with a lover in an obviously creepy forest. Nope, I’m the prophet.

As a prophet, I thought my role was just to warn the main characters and then exit the scene, but…

[Choking… Coughing… Wheezing…]

An alien creature, known only as Monster X, has taken an unsettling interest in me.

[Heavy breathing…]

And as if that’s not enough, a gas mask-wearing, knife-wielding maniac decides to skip heading to the cabin where the protagonists are and make a pit stop at the convenience store where I’m working.

What’s going on? Why is all this happening to me, a mere side character?!

Come for the romance, stay for the horror. <<less

Ah, why did I waste my life on this game? Why didn’t I actually quit when I kept saying I would, day after day, because the game was so frustrating? Is this my punishment for playing it?... more>>

Become the leader of a cult religion that has garnered a cult following!

I was a veteran player of [Conclude: Rise of the Othergod Apostle]. I quit because I was fed up with other players, but I still had lingering regrets for [Hapenesus] a God I couldn’t clear no matter what.

Then, an update notification for [Conclude] popped up. Hoping this might be my chance to finally clear [Hapenesus], I logged back in.

Hapenesus: My evangelist.

Hapenesus: You are the first of your kind.

SYSTEM: ‘Hapenesus’ grants you a hidden trait.

SYSTEM: Amazing achievement! You have charmed an ‘Othergod’ with just a conversation!

My excitement about possibly being the first to clear ‘Hapenesus’ was short-lived.

Mother Aelusia: My beloved child.

Mother Aelusia: No matter who you choose, I will find you.

Mother Aelusia: And I will be with you.

“No, what is this? Why is it suddenly turning into a horror story?”

SYSTEM: “Mother Aelusia’ is forcibly summoning you to the Dark Realm.

…And just like that, I found myself pulled into a game where I was supposed to be a leader of a cult religion. But surprisingly, the biggest problem wasn’t that I was going to become a cult leader.

“You’ve already called me that.”

“I will never call you again.”

“It does not matter. Whatever you think of me, whatever you call me… .”

His icy blue eyes darkened, and he whispered, drawing her breathless face nearer.

“You are mine.”
