Surviving A Novel I Don't Remember: A Tutor's Guide To Staying Alive

Byul_Byre
"If I can just stay under the radar, I might survive the final chapter." Kim Jowoon woke up in a novel world as the illegitimate fourth son of a marquis, Julian Von Astrea, and it looked like every single character hated him. It was a world where everyone looked like a protagonist—shining eyes, tragic backstories, destiny practically dripping off them. Everyone except him. He didn't even get a script. Then the Affection System popped up and crushed his hopes in one clean line of text: every so-called “hero” in the capital had a solid 0% interest in his continued existence. Naturally, Julian did the most reasonable thing possible—he ran. Straight into the safest job he could think of: tutoring the young son of the Empire's most reclusive (and famously cold) Duke. The plan was foolproof. Win over the kid, stay invisible, collect a fat paycheck, and live long enough to die of old age instead of plot relevance. It didn't go smoothly at first. The child never spoke, the Duke barely appeared, and Julian briefly wondered if he'd chosen the wrong kind of death. But somehow… it worked. The Duke's son quickly warmed up to him. Lessons became warm and fun moments, and silence turned into trust. And even stranger, the Duke's affection level didn't just rise—it skyrocketed into something Julian absolutely had not planned for. For the first time since transmigrating, he felt safe. Then the Emperor began to interfere, so much that he became a madman to Julian. Julian thought he could live quietly. Well... He thought wrong.

The Enchanted Path

The Enchanted Path: A Secret Beam Within the Mist of Solitude ​In the heart of a profound silence, within a room scented with aged parchment and the history of dried ink, lived a girl named Delaina. She possessed a rare, ethereal beauty; her silken white hair shimmered like silver threads under the golden light of the eleven o'clock sun, as if woven from winter clouds. Her deep blue eyes, like a bottomless and mysterious ocean, were a mirror to the solitude that surrounded her soul like a towering wall. Her parents remained in a far-off place, beyond the high mountains and an eternal mist, leaving her with only faint memories and cold letters as companions. ​One day, overwhelmed by the ache of distance and the salt of tears upon her delicate cheeks, Delaina decided she could no longer surrender to the silence. She wandered toward a desolate, forgotten area on the outskirts of town—a place untouched by humans for ages. There, amidst the dust and shadows of ruins, she discovered a most peculiar book; bound in ancient leather, it held an invisible magnetic power. The moment she touched it, a warm vibration and a living energy pulsed through her veins, as if the book had been waiting for her touch alone. ​That night, while Delaina was lost in a deep slumber, the book awakened. A brilliant, radiant white light erupted from between its closed pages, illuminating every dark corner of her room. Delaina startled awake, her breath catching in her chest as she witnessed the glow emanating from the book. That beam was not merely light; it was a gateway to a new world, fraught with danger and filled with hope. In that moment, she knew her life would never be the same, and the mysterious mist that once shrouded her world was finally beginning to clear, revealing the hidden truths.
