Chapter 3 A few days earlier... The day I was punched by the guards. Hebenia made a wish to the demon. "Please save me... and all the prisoners." "Do you want me to let you leave this place?" The demon asked again, as always, after being summoned while taking a bath. "No." "We're staying here." "I don't understand. If you stay here, you'll definitely die..." "The prisoners are precious to me." "But they're also criminals who committed crimes." They had to serve the rest of their…-

Chapter 2 "Ahhh!" Something grabbed my ankle. At the same time, I dropped the bundle of branches I was carrying. The branches crashed onto the ground with a loud clatter. Only then did my scattered thoughts finally return. A... a demon...? It was hard to deny it. Everything happening to me was already so unrealistic that I had no reason to believe otherwise. Gathering my courage, I slowly turned around. The moment I did, our eyes met. It seemed the demon had been watching me the…

Chapter 1 People say that when you die and transmigrate into another world, your status rises. "Stop wasting time and move!" "If you don't finish today's quota, nobody eats!" But when I opened my eyes, I had become a seven-year-old prisoner. Under the prison guards' harsh shouts and the occasional crack of their whips, the other prisoners and I worked hard, drenched in sweat. This happened so suddenly that I didn't even have time to be shocked. The adults mined ore from the mine, while I…

~Chapter 52~ “Uh, is there any way to get some more soap? I have a party in a few days, and I need my skin to improve even a little by then.” “Why?” “…Someone’s coming.” Ah! Harriet found Viviana, who was so desperate to impress the man she liked, kind of cute. Not long ago, she had been so annoying. Harriet smiled softly and took out a small package she had prepared in advance. She had known from the start that Viviana’s visit was because of the soap. “Where is the…-

~Chapter 51~ Manual labor was almost like a line that separated commoners from nobles. Publicly admitting to doing such work was like confessing that you had fallen to the level of a commoner. But Harriet was not ashamed at all. “Of course it was hard. But while stirring the soap ingredients in the pot for days, I was able to reflect on God’s words. I realized my foolishness and sincerely repented.” Everyone admired her honest confession about something she might have wanted to…

~Chapter 50~ Even though Benedict had told himself it would be fine, sitting face-to-face with Cedric in the drawing room of the Duke of Kailas’s estate brought a strange tension. He spent over 30 minutes on small talk before smoothly shifting to news of others, as if casually updating Cedric on his own life. “By the way, do you know Viscount Livingston?” “I think I’ve heard the name. He built some wealth through construction, didn’t he?” “Oh, so you do know him? His son runs a…

~Chapter 49~ “You almost made me the bad guy again,” Julian said. “But I know you’re not that kind of woman anymore. I’m sorry for being thoughtless and bothering you.” That was… a surprising thing to say. ‘What do you even know about me to say that?’ Sure, it was true—but for all Julian knew, Harriet Listerwell was still supposed to be a scandalous troublemaker. “How did you figure that out?” “If you were still that way,” he said, “you would’ve clung to…

~Chapter 48~ ‘Yeah, even if Harriet got prettier, she’s still just Harriet. Who would care about an ugly girl? People are only annoyed because a scandal maker like her had the nerve to come back.’ But she didn’t realize her friends’ true feelings. It wasn’t that they couldn’t keep up with Bella that bothered them—it was that someone they used to look down on, like Harriet, had changed so much. They were more curious about how she became pretty. No matter how much they copied…

~Chapter 47~ “You don’t know anything about this. Just do as your aunt says.” The dresses her aunt picked for her were either puffy pink things covered in ribbons or ones so dull and tightly wrapped they looked suffocating. They were all over the place in style, but one thing was consistent: none of them suited Harriet at all. If her aunt just had bad taste, she could’ve forgiven it. But she clearly had an excellent eye when it came to picking out clothes and jewelry for Bella. ‘I…

~Chapter 46~ As expected, Roxana sighed deeply and held her forehead. Harriet clung to her more. “Please give me one more hour of lessons about economics. Also, could you recommend some books to read? And if you happen to have any summary notes… maybe I could borrow them…” “You really are a shameless thief.” “But no matter how much I steal your knowledge, it won’t decrease, right? So I’m not really a thief.” Harriet gave a cheeky grin, and Roxana finally gave in. Trisha…
