Born to a half-witch mother and an archmage father, she possessed an extraordinary amount of mana within her. However, fate was merciless. At the age of eight, her family was brutally murdered by unknown assailants, leaving her as the sole survivor. Overwhelmed with grief and rage, she vowed to avenge them. "Mom, Dad, Sister... I will avenge your deaths no matter what." Training relentlessly in both magic and swordsmanship, she soon discovered that she wielded one of the most powerful magical abilities in existence. Yet, despite her vast reserves of mana, the strain of using her power left her utterly exhausted. In order to survive, she became the youngest assassin in the Lavastian Empire, executing traitors under imperial orders in exchange for five gold pieces each week. Her life of blood and shadows took a sudden turn when Duke and Duchess Flowell, unable to bear children of their own, adopted her as their daughter. For four years, she found solace and happiness in her new family. But peace was fleeting. Her adoptive parents perished in a mysterious carriage accident, their bodies never found. The emperor ordered an investigation, and within weeks, the truth was revealed—bandits had killed them. Or so the reports claimed. With her grief reignited and suspicions running deep, she resumed her path of vengeance, becoming the infamous "Dark Killer" of the Cevallos Empire—a faceless assassin clad in a black mask and cloak, striking fear into the hearts of her enemies. As she hunted for the ones responsible for both her families' deaths, an unexpected complication arose—she became entangled in the affections of the empire's most powerful men. And then, when she encountered one of them, a flood of memories from another life surfaced. "As I thought... this world I live in is the fantasy romance novel I once read." In that past life, she had been nothing more than an extra character. Yet now, fate had rewritten her role. And in a world filled with intrigue, magic, and obsession, she was no longer just a side character—she was the villainess who would carve her own destiny.

Haruko could hardly believe it — she had actually transmigrated into a melodramatic female-oriented novel. And she had become a cannon fodder villainess! Facing a death flag right at the start, Haruko decisively transformed into a yandere loli and confessed to the female lead. “Ichiko, the one I like is you!” “You clearly said you liked me — so why are you still going to someone else!” “I won’t allow you to like anyone else. You can only like me!!!” She would confess, make her fall in love, and then fake her death in front of her — making herself her one and only. But gradually, Haruko noticed something was off. The female lead seemed to have been raised into a yandere. “Hey, Haruko, you can only like me too, okay?”

They called him a demon. They spat on him in the streets. They let him eat alone for twelve years. And when the Heavenly Screen flashed across the sky—showing Naruto Uzumaki as the man who would end everything—the first thing he whispered wasn't rage or vengeance. It was: "Why didn't anyone tell me my parents died for me?" This isn't a story about a hero turning evil. It's about a boy who loved too hard in a world that only taught him how to bleed. And when the screen revealed everything Konoha buried—the lies, the cover-ups, the bodies in the basement—Naruto didn't become a monster. He just stopped pretending to be their hero.

Traveling to a world where ghost stories and abnormal creatures are rampant, Serie not only becomes a beautiful, fragile, and sickly girl like a porcelain doll, but is also taken in by the salvation organization as an S-level abnormal creature and imprisoned in a steel fortress in the deep sea. But Serie didn't care, because she found that as long as she closed her eyes, those witches condensed by fear, desire and power would open their demon eyes on the other side of the world. They were walking taboos and also puppets dancing on Serie's fingertips. Each witch has a completely different form and ability. Complete tasks, light up the skill tree, and continuously upgrade and evolve. Beautiful and powerful S-class witches appeared one after another like mushrooms after rain—— "The Witch of Pleasure plunges New York into a lewd abyss?" "The Dread Devourer ate the Golden Gate Bridge clean?" "The Slaughter Witch rules the battlefield, weaving nightmares for her enemies with threads of blood?" "The ruling witch made the organization's top executives betray her and become her loyal servants?" Alarms on the radio sounded one after another, and the employees were talking about Serie's trumpet, some with fear, some with admiration, and some with vigilance, but they would never know that the culprit of all this was that useless and cute girl who was tied with chains and restraints and did nothing every day except act coquettishly and wait for food. Serie said nothing, just buried her face in the pillow and continued to play the simulation game: "Let's open a new account... I want to try a different evolution path this time."

[A depressed boy clings to a game and its demon slayer protagonist for his life until the game's world becomes reality and he embarks a determined journey to change protagonist's ending that should have never happened.] Johann had already given up on reality long before it began to collapse. The only thing that kept him going was a game, The Mayhem, and its silent, unstoppable protagonist: the Hellraider. Then the game became real. Monsters, death, and destruction—everything unfolded exactly as he remembered. But Johann didn’t enter this world to survive. He came for one reason: to follow Hellraider… and change the ending that should have never happened. Yet the more he walks that path, the more the world begins to break away from what he knows. Events shift. Truths contradict. And the figure he once believed he understood refuses to be defined by anything, not even the story itself. In a world where even fate is unstable, Johann continues forward, even when he no longer knows what he is chasing. *The entire story is completed. New chapter will be published regularly every two days.*

"First, Dumbledore knew Gilderoy Lockhart was a fraudulent fake. Second, 'MC' also knew Lockhart was a fake because he had transmigrated into Lockhart. The current issue is that Dumbledore intends to invite him to Hogwarts as a negative example, while 'MC', a fake who can't even cast the simplest spells, only wants to lie down and enjoy the vast wealth accumulated by the original body. But in the end, 'MC' still went to Hogwarts to become the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. Isn't the magical mansion and the vaults full of Galleons appealing? Or isn't the achievement of over a dozen best-selling books that continuously earn royalties enough to satisfy him? Or isn't Snape, who is obsessed with his position, and Voldemort scary? No, none of these are the reasons; it's because 'MC' was escorted to the school by Dumbledore! So... figure out a way to get through this year's term..."

I died once reaching for a woman whose face I can no longer remember. Reborn into the Vorn Dynasty—a brutal family that rules over thirteen worlds along with other territories—I was supposed to be a genius. Instead, I was declared broken. My soul is fractured, my memories are gone, and my own siblings view me as nothing more than a lamb for the slaughter. But the cracks in my soul aren't empty. They're filled with something ancient. A piece of my past. [SYSTEM INITIALIZATION...] [SOUL INTEGRITY: 47%] [THE DARKNESS CALLS] With the power to crush my enemies with gravity, fry their nerves with lightning and the darkness at my call, I will carve a path through the blood of my rivals. I will unearth the mystery of my past death, reclaim the woman haunting my dreams, and tear down the empires that dare to stand in my way. But power isn't the only thing I crave. In a universe where betrayal is the only constant, I find solace in the arms of those brave enough to love a monster. I will collect their hearts, their bodies, and their absolute devotion. This isn't a story about a hero. This is a story about a monster who chose to be one—and the people who love him anyway. The question isn't whether he'll find her. The question is what's left of him when he does. He doesn't save people. He claims them. And somehow, that's worse. This novel contains explicit sexual content, a demanding harem, dark themes, and a cunning protagonist who plays the villain as easily as he plays the lover. You have been warned.

Is One considered Inhuman simply because they lack the qualities of being a Human? Or does their Inhumanity merely hide whatever left of their Humanity? In truth, the only way to survive in a World who hates Humanity is to forsake them completely, yet does it resolve the problem that comes from being Inhuman? This story follows a Boy who remembered nothing of his bygone past, everything is a mere blur in his White Scape of Burned Self. He didn’t know who he was or what he was. His name and his mother remained hidden, forever a burned word in his mind that reels in and out of Wrath. Asking a question everyone is asking yet no one knows the answer to. “Who exactly am I in this world? What should I do? What is my purpose?” Hence his journey isn’t a grand quest to absolve a Great Evil or is it a pursuit of deeply personal vendetta. His story is a tangled web clashing with other story in a World that has no intention in keeping everyone alive. To ask himself, are those Inhuman capable of achieving Humanity? This is a deeply personal story rendered in a medium of Wuxia Fantasy, and beyond everything else this is an amateur work, expect a lot of mistakes and grammar errors. *This story tackles heavy theme such as depicted Child Abuse, Suicide and implied Sexual Content.
