Chapter 5 Like Misaligned Gears I tried to view the current situation as rationally as possible. At first, I thought in a one-dimensional way: Askan would eventually kill me, so maybe I could avoid that ending by keeping him pleased. But I had already done far too many unforgivable things to him, and trusting someone’s feelings in such a volatile situation seemed foolish. My life was mine to protect—I couldn’t hand the hilt of the knife to anyone else. After staying up several nights, thinking it…-

Chapter 4 Let’s Be Happy Together On the surface, my day went according to schedule. Today was the day I resumed my studies after taking a short break due to the horseback riding accident. My tutor, who had come to teach me, was Martella—a woman in her mid-to-late forties with a kind and comforting appearance. While Martella chattered away enthusiastically, my mind was completely occupied with other thoughts. “What would happen if I left the story entirely?” If I ran away somewhere far where no…

Chapter 12 "What? You don't have to do that. That's a hassle. It's not reasonable either." I refused flatly. Ugh, we're not even dating. Coming to get me today was already overkill. "It's Grandmother's command. It's less of a hassle for me to come pick you up, so that's more reasonable." That's…… well, that could be true. Everyone has different things they find bothersome. Besides, since I need to stay close with Dowager Duchess Yurasel, it wouldn't hurt to follow her wishes. "You…-

Chapter 11 What's the point of struggling desperately to cultivate a peaceful future? The family is already out there scattering ashes everywhere! *'I thought I possessed a good family, but I was wrong!!'* I needed to find out what exactly they had been hiding. This was no time to be casually asking Lindberg for 'good ways to compliment men.' I needed to commission him to find out what Roteroa was hiding, and about the Dowager's grudges. *'As soon as I get back—no, it's a bit late today.…

Chapter 3 The Way to Avoid the Death Route 2021.11.09 Until now, Ascan had maintained a poker face, but suddenly it crumpled. This time, the shift in his emotions was so obvious that anyone could notice it. Even without words, it was clear he was displeased by my kindness. He moved his lips slightly and let out a small sigh. “…Haa.” It was such a quiet breath that you could miss it if you weren’t paying attention. Yet he didn’t utter any words of refusal. In a way, that was only natural. No…

Chapter 10 Everything was going smoothly. When I told my father that the Dowager Duchess of Cheskant and her acquaintances would also be accompanying us on the volunteer trip to Muteso, he even did a little shoulder dance. *'The Dowager Duchess of Cheskant must be considering you as the Duchess's wife once again. My child, Roseel. You must do well. You must win back the Dowager Duchess's heart. From what I know, the Dowager Duchess favors clever and calculating young ladies. How should I put…

Chapter 2 I Decided to Change the Ending In the novel The Beloved Saintess, it was mentioned that Askan had escaped from the laboratory, but there was no explanation that he had lived as a slave under the Brelov family. Did I miss something? I quickly retraced my memory, but nothing came to mind. That’s when I realized that The Beloved Saintess wasn’t even a completed novel yet. Unless I were the author, there was no way I could know every detail of the story. This can’t be happening… My…

Chapter 09 Yurasel Cheskant. The iron-blooded woman who, despite losing her husband, son, and daughter-in-law all at once, had led the Cheskant Ducal House to this day. It was written that Yurasel had inherited Cheskant to her grandson in its perfect form. I gulped. So she's like a successful female CEO version in a romance fantasy novel. I'm a little nervous. In the novel, Yurasel was evaluated as an intelligent and cynical character. Moreover, since some people called Yurasel a…

Chapter 1 The Brelov Twins “How can twins be so different?” “One seems like she was blessed by every god, perfect in every way… and the other…” Click, click. Tanasia paused as she walked toward the party hall, glancing at the people whispering about her. When she looked back, she realized everyone’s eyes were on her. It wasn’t just a few people; everyone in the room was sneering at her. No matter how much she tried to hide her face behind a fan, her eyes couldn’t be concealed. The…

Chapter 08 *You can do this, Roseil.* I hurried down to the first floor and greeted Reston. "Oh my, Reston. The clothes you're wearing today are truly……." "Good heavens, Duke Reston! The clothes you're wearing today are truly splendid. They suit you wonderfully, Your Grace." Oh dear. The Countess Roteroa beat me to it. Fine, then I'll move on to the next compliment. "Reston, thank you for coming to see us today. Your hairstyle today is also very hands……." "Oh! Duke Reston,…
