A strange unease prickled my skin at her words. “Yeah, Ren. Wanna come along? Three’s less awkward than two.” Raphelt’s carefree tone grated on my nerves. “If you had things to do, why did you call me?” Déjà vu. A wave of unpleasant familiarity, similar to what I’d felt when I first met the heroine, washed over me. I frowned. I couldn’t pinpoint the source of this feeling… A fleeting image flashed through my mind, but it vanished before I could grasp it. ‘What was that?’ I…- 19.1 K • Ongoing
- Muscalt was shrouded in even more mystery than Scior. No one had ever seen his face. Even though we lived in the same house, encounters were infrequent. However, since he was always shirtless, every glimpse was a feast for the eyes. Whether it was his personality or a carefully crafted persona, he seemed utterly unfazed by his own behavior. I spent a week observing him, wondering what kind of madman he was, but found nothing particularly unusual aside from his state of undress. I could only…

- “Thrilled to have another woman to flirt with, I suppose.” He was openly fond of beautiful women. It was nothing new, so everyone reacted with indifference. “You know I’m kidding, right?” “Of course.” Raphelt was sulking and poking my cheek when, speak of the devil, a report came from downstairs. “Looks like the new recruit has arrived.” As Raphelt tried to pull me up in a hug, I gave him another shove, sending him stumbling. He recovered quickly, practically skipping out…

- Back then, I thought everything would end easily. After all, I knew the safest, most perfect ending. “I was trying to get the ending with Raphelt, that psycho pervert!” A year ago, I was deeply engrossed in a dating sim called Yansi’s Mafia Conquest. I’d bought the game chip after friends pestered me to try it, then promptly forgot about it. Rediscovering it while cleaning was my downfall. I’d sworn off games since childhood, but that day, for some reason, it beckoned. And then… what was…

Karta was banished from the room by Fiogen. Outside, seeing Delkart waiting with his silver hair shimmering, Karta's eyes blazed. “You dare come to my room?” “This is how ordinary romances begin, Your Highness.” “I made it clear. Yours is no ordinary romance.” Delkart nodded at Karta’s threat. “As Your Highness commands.” *** This was her first outing since possessing the body of the novel's character. Duke Delkart, as Karta had said, was a handsome man. His silver hair…- 39.4 K • Ongoing
- “Seeing you bow. I don’t particularly like it.” Fiogen’s mouth fell open. She began to look around. This was a line Karta had spoken to the female protagonist. He’d said it while watching her bow to him. That scene was… at the ball! Could it be that he’s seeing the female protagonist? Fiogen frantically scanned her surroundings. Then, she suddenly realized Karta had never even met the female protagonist. It was absurd for him to suddenly see her now. That meant he was looking at someone…

- “I didn’t know.”“Huh? What do you mean you didn’t know, Karta?”“It’s the first time I’ve ever felt happy on my birthday.” Watching Karta turn his head away shyly, Fiogen tilted her head. Was he perhaps planning to meet Duke Delkart after the party? Fiogen carefully turned her head away from Karta and murmured, “Karta, do you have plans afterward?” Karta flinched at Fiogen’s question and shook his head. Fiogen’s eyes darted around before a smile spread across her face. She…

“Do you have any hobbies, Cal?” Sophia blurted out, suddenly driven by the need to know something, anything, about the man she was to marry. “I enjoy people. I like conversing, and I especially love dancing. People seem to become gentler, more joyful when they dance. My mother says no one enjoys the courting season as much as I do. After all, it's all about dancing and conversation.” “My apologies if I’ve deprived you of that joy.” “Don't tease me.” He chuckled softly. Sophia…- 41.7 K • Ongoing
- Sophia forced a casual air as she cut her food into smaller pieces and ate. But the delicious flavors she had enjoyed moments before now tasted like sand. It’s just a dream, she told herself firmly. Yet, even after the meal, the notion of Ezekiel having a lover lingered in her mind. Finally, she sought out Felix. Felix enjoyed browsing the library of the Lillum mansion, and today was no exception. He couldn't fathom Sophia's motives as she trailed him, peering between bookshelves, feigning an…

- Ezekiel had a lover. For those who reveled in the romances of heroes, this news was naturally a significant topic of conversation. “What do you mean, Ezekiel had a lover?” Moreover, this was Ezekiel. Ezekiel, the very first true king of this land, whose title had changed countless times. The hero who saved innumerable lives. The philosopher who found meaning for humanity amidst the tyrannical whims of a cruel god. His path had been flawless, and in a way, he was the closest to the divine. And…
