Ananya never expected death to bring her into another life. One moment, she was running her parents’ restaurant in the modern world. The next, she opened her eyes in silk robes, surrounded by hostile stares — the Queen Consort of the empire. But this body was cursed in everyone’s eyes. The Emperor loathed her. The mistress laughed at her. And the court whispered behind her back. Only she wasn’t truly alone. > “Finally, someone can see us!” “What kind of Queen Consort are you, so calm even with ghosts in your chamber?” “Shut up, Wei Rong, let her breathe. She looks like she’s about to faint.” Three ghosts — a stoic scholar, a brash general, and a mischievous noble girl — lingered at her side. They were invisible to all but her. And with them, she learned to survive the poisonous palace. When rumors spread that she was cursed, Ananya stood before the empire’s court. Instead of tears, she offered proof. Instead of fear, she offered dignity. > “If Heaven believes I am cursed, let the fire and smoke betray me. I will not hide.” And Heaven sided with her. Outside the palace, crises struck — starving soldiers, missing supplies, merchants growing fat from stolen grain. Inside, Lady Zhen, the Emperor’s favored mistress, grew bolder by the day, flaunting her beauty and mocking Ananya’s quiet grace. > “Sister, do you still dream of winning His Majesty’s heart? Look at you — plain, dull, unworthy.” “If simplicity is a crime, then let it be mine,” Ananya answered, unshaken. The Emperor indulged Lady Zhen openly… but in the silence of night, he tasted Ananya’s food, lingered at her table, and found himself unsettled by her calm. > “This is not palace fare,” he muttered. “It is lighter,” Ananya replied softly. “Easier to sleep after.” Step by step, conspiracy thickened. At a grand banquet, a poisoned cup was placed in Ananya’s hand. But a ghost’s laugh echoed in her ear — and the cup was swapped. A dancer collapsed instead. From that night on, the Emperor’s gaze changed. He began to notice the woman who never begged for favor, never fought for attention, yet always endured. Still, war brewed at the borders. Betrayals reached even the throne. Assassins crept through the palace halls. And the one person who seemed weakest became the calm at the center of the storm. Through whispered secrets, mischievous hauntings, and quiet resilience, Ananya carved her place in the empire. She would not simply survive. She would rise. And the Emperor who once despised her would one day whisper only her name.

Being transmigrated wasn't in Reis's bucket list. Being so in an unpredictable world with danger lurking everywhere? Not even in his nightmare journal. So he definitely isn't thrilled when his soul is literally dragged out into a void and forced into a foreign body. Or about the blue screen of doom, trying to convince him that everything was exactly how it was supposed to be. Like hell it was right for him to be in line for the throne. Surely, Reis had run out of luck. But that didn't mean he was foolish enough to play hero. No. Why must he sacrifice his peace for something so foolish? Reis just had to wait. Until the royal family let their guard down, and he had enough money to escape far away. Just enough to escape heaven's eyes. And someone promised to help. Someone who didn't even know how to hold a human right side up. The fearsome guardian, who, for some reason, picked the weakest human to bother. It cost Reis half his mortal soul and a bit more, but what can he do? Escaping the throne is more important than dignity. Once the trouble's off his shoulder, he'd find a peaceful land to settle in and spend the rest of his mortal life lazing away. The perfect escape plan. But how is he supposed to escape from this so-called guardian again, at least before losing himself entirely? Well, not anytime soon. *** Antihero, bitter MC X Villainous, transcend level ML.

In a world where Death is not an ending but a presence that walks among gods, Nyxaroth—the Eternal Night—has ruled existence since the dawn of time. Feared by all, bound to no one, he has never questioned his purpose… until a single human defies him. She does not beg. She does not run. And when Death comes for her, she meets his gaze without fear. That moment changes everything. From an impossible union between Nyxaroth and a mortal woman is born Dorian Vale, a child who carries the weight of both life and death within him. Neither fully divine nor fully human, Dorian grows up under the quiet shadow of his father’s legacy, struggling to control powers that could end lives with a thought. But control is fragile. And fate has plans of its own. When Lena Hart, a soft-spoken human girl untouched by the cruelty of the divine world, crosses paths with Dorian, she becomes the one variable he cannot predict. Where others see danger, she sees something else—something human. Something worth saving. As their connection deepens, so does the tension between destiny and desire. Dorian begins to question everything he was raised to believe: that attachment is weakness, that love is a flaw, that death is absolute. Because loving Lena may be the one thing even Death cannot control. But ancient forces are watching. Lothaire, the Devil and Nyxaroth’s oldest companion, remembers the first time Death hesitated… and the consequences that followed. Now, with the balance between realms shifting once again, secrets buried since the beginning of time begin to surface. And as enemies close in and powers awaken, Dorian must confront the truth: He is not just the son of Death. He may be the one destined to either preserve the balance of existence… or destroy it completely. In a world where even Death can love, the greatest danger is not dying… but losing control of what you love most.

NO SMUT. My name is Michelle, and I was murdered by the two people I trusted most—my fiance and my stepsister. Sickly, powerless, and foolishly kind, I couldn’t even fight back as they took everything from me. As I lay dying, regret was the only thing I had left. I thought of all the stories I once loved—tales where villainesses lived boldly, took what they wanted, and never begged for love that would only betray them. For the first time, I wished I could be like them. Then a voice answered. [Congratulations, host. You’ve been chosen for the Villainess System.] When I opened my eyes, I was no longer the girl who died. I had transmigrated into the body of Seraphina Helene Valemont—a woman feared, powerful, and destined to fall—in a world of magic and nobility. Armed with a mysterious system that rewards ruthlessness, punishes weakness, and pushes me toward becoming something far darker, I now stand among scheming nobles, manipulative royals, and enemies who hide behind perfect smiles. But this time, things will be different. Love? Trust? Mercy? I already died for those once. This time, I will be ruthless. This time, I will survive. And if this world insists on casting me as the villainess— Then I will become the most unforgettable one it has ever seen. After all… this is exactly what I wished for.
