Chapter 4 After everyone had cried their hearts out... “Hebenia, are you hungry?” “We made some stew.” “Oh dear, look how pale you are. Come eat and get your strength back.” Maybe they felt embarrassed after crying in front of me. The adults quickly took me downstairs to the dining room, saying it was time to eat. They carried me the whole way. As soon as I sat down, a bowl of cream stew was placed in front of me. It was full of meat and vegetables. Just looking at it…-

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 55~ No one had liked it, but Bella often invited Harriet to her gatherings. That day, at one of Bella’s tea parties, Harriet took a bite of the food on her plate—then immediately gagged and spit it out. “What the hell are you doing?” Caroline snapped. Harriet, panicking, tried to wipe her mouth with a napkin, unable to even respond properly. Of course, everyone frowned at the scene. “The… the taste was weird,” Harriet mumbled. “What are you saying? We’re all… -
~Chapter 54~ “Really? She thinks of the other person first? That’s surprising. Did she really come out of the monastery a changed person?” “I’m not sure exactly, but she definitely seems extremely careful about getting involved with men.” “She was hurt by love and even got cast out by her family… Oh! That was a slip of the tongue! Haha!” Bella was horrified that people were starting to feel sorry for Harriet. She had worked so hard to make Harriet seem like a pitiful, ugly…

~Chapter 53~ The phrase on the poster, “If I wash away your sins, you will be saved,” which quoted a scripture, was strangely fitting. People stopped by the store and looked at the poster, laughing a little but also impressed. “A soap that washes away sins? Haha!” “I guess dirty skin is a sin for women.” “Really? Should I buy one for my wife too?” Even middle-aged men who normally didn’t care about beauty products bought several bars, saying they’d give them to their…

~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…
