"Kiss my foot, butler." "What the hell?!" The day Senay was appointed as Princess Serena's butler, he suddenly remembered he was inside a game world he'd played in his past life!

Reborn in a fantasy world with two brothers and a full set of parents Yeah, sounded decent until I realized my brothers were annoying, dramatic, and somehow even louder than me. Then my mother left me. Why? Because I looked too human. She took my elf-eared brothers and walked away. I got left behind with my poor human dad, in a crumbling farmhouse on the edge of nowhere. So here I am: a newborn, cold, cranky, and ready to fight the entire world. They can keep their glowing eyes and destiny speeches. i’ve got a skill system, a reputation to build, and receipts for everyone who ever doubted me. She wanted to throw me away? Big mistake. Huge.

Life is unfair. That's something I figured out when I was young. It's not just life but the world itself is unfair. I was an orphan who joined a game design company trying to survive. But I was fired when the owner's son wanted the damn job. Thankfully I had backup plans. However, all those were thrown out the window when I was thrust into the world of one of the stories I created. My first story. And honestly, I felt...happy. This was a place where I could take advantage of everything! I could live a peaceful yet rich life! All I had to do was follow the story. There was one problem though. I was an extra. And to add to that I had no memory of who I was. ___________ Ok so just a little disclaimer this is obviously based on The Author's POV but I did also base it mostly on ORV as well as IOAMI

Han So-Young, 30, single, Korean, and totally uninterested in men — or so she claimed — lived a quiet life until she died heroically saving a stray puppy from a speeding truck. A tragic yet poetic end. What she didn’t expect… was to wake up inside a novel. Not just any novel. A brutal, blood-soaked historical fantasy called Mystery You. A book known for its vicious politics, class warfare, and a body count in the triple digits. A story without romance. Without forgiveness. Without happy endings. Worse yet, she’s transmigrated not as a bystander… But as the villainess herself — Elizabeth Port Shelberg. Daughter of the infamous Shelberg family. Slave owner. War profiteer. Tyrant in pearls and corsets. The woman destined to be executed at the hands of the revolutionary hero, Arthur Penrose, by Volume 3. So-Young has no one. No mysterious system. No help from people. All she has is the memory of how it ends and perhaps a gifted ability she gained after being transmigrated. Now trapped in the 1850s of an alternate world, where slavery still thrives and power is soaked in blood, So-Young has two choices: • Follow the script. • Or burn the whole damn book down. But changing fate won’t be easy. Because in this world… The only thing worse than being powerless is being merciful.

"When she read, Lisa had always hated villains. In her defense, she never expected to become one." Lisa was an avid reader, and among all the books she loved, she had a new obsession: "Beauty and Power", a book in which the main villain shared her name. The book began with two characters, Lisa and Eleanor, who, during a vacation trip, ended up getting lost in a cave and found themselves in the world of beasts. They were best friends and did everything together, so it was no surprise when both transmigrated to the same world. In the world of beasts, they were the most beautiful and caught the attention of the most powerful males. Over time, however, Lisa's envy and ambition grew stronger and stronger. The friends soon became rivals and then enemies. Lisa, the villain, led the fox clan against the tiger clan in the book’s final battle, where she was ultimately defeated by the protagonist, Eleanor. As a consequence of her sins, she was blamed for the war and sold into slavery. To ensure she could never manipulate anyone again, her tongue was cut out. That was the price she paid for her greed. "Now that was a great ending!" Lisa exclaimed, delighted by the story. However, she was far less thrilled when she woke up in the villain’s body. Sold as a slave and unable to speak, Lisa could only rely on her intelligence to survive in that body. But after all, what could she do with the body of a notorious criminal?

In a universe not unlike our own, the turn of the millennium brought with it the sudden appearance of super-powered humans. As time passed, nearly all of humanity had some form of Talent, in what came to be known as the Heroic Era. And where there were heroes, there were villains. Amongst the most feared villains (but really she identifies as an anti-villain), one stood above all. Not for her Talents, for she had none, but for her science. Khalida Zaquot, AKA The Engineer. Her mastery of super-science kept her leagues above the villains and heroes of Knight City... until the day she died, slain by the ultimate protectors of the status quo, Crusader and Destiny. But death was not the end for The Engineer. Reborn as the daughter of the duo that killed her, Khalida, now named Aislin, has to navigate life as the daughter of the world's mightiest if she's to get her revenge, restore her bad name, and finally conquer the world. And with her new powers, she might just be able to... If she can survive her overprotective (and overly powerful) twin sister, celebrity status, new parents, hormones, and hero school.

Xian lived his days doing what he loved, conquering the dating sim game he played with a touch of tragedy again and again looking for a way romance to one character. But, just when he reached what seemed to be the prelude of the route he wanted, it turns out that was the end of it as the game rolled the credits. "What!? Are you kidding me?" Indignant and was almost about to smash his laptop, an email notification plastered itself on the screen which caught his attention. If this were a novel, then he knew too well what happens next when something like that pops up. And he was right. Apparently some entities that were watching him got touched by his dedication. But still, he did a grave sin of not taking care of his body which caused him to die. As a compromise, the entities decided to punish him, by making him relieve doing what he loved. Transmigrating him in the game world he loved so much, to accomplish what he left unfinished and reach ‘the end’ he wanted to witness.

I did nothing with my entire life. Literally nothing. Then I died — not saving a cat from a tree heroically, not even struck by Truck-kun — but of a heart attack caused by a BL manga confession scene. Pitiful? Perhaps. When I begged for a second chance, the gods listened. Or at least, they jeered at me. Instead of returning as a mighty sorcerer or a spoiled heiress, I found myself as a young woman with awful vision in some obscure nobleman's manor house. My eyesight is so poor I can hardly recognize faces. I trip, blink, and consistently confuse people with chairs (and vice versa). But here's the kicker: I've been reborn as the young stepmother of a future villainess — a child who will grow up to be the "evil empress" in a bestselling romance novel that I used to detest. And so, with only my half-working eyes, shreds of memory, and sheer obstinacy, I'm going to do something — anything — other than waste this life. Whether that is steering my evil stepdaughter, making it through treacherous noble schemes, or just learning how to walk straight without crashing into a wall. I've got my chance now. And this time, I won't let it slide through my fuzzy fingers.

A mob from an evil organization that, after surviving the final battle against the heroes, has to face the tough mission of pretending to be the dad of the defeated boss of the organization in a society full of heroes...

[Mommy Villainess (The Lady with the Crab Mallet)] *** [Original book cover. Artwork by Artist Michiro for WN Author sola_cola.] *** In Tilly's past life, she was a villainess who neglected her husband and son for power. Then, the "real woman of the prophecy" came and took them away from her. When she failed to seize the throne for herself, she was executed for all the crimes she committed. Then, came her rebirth. She wants to meet her son again so she vowed to be a good person this time. Good enough to seduce Captain Kiho--- her husband in her past life. But soon, she realized that flirting with the captain is the least of her worry. After all, she discovered that her "evilness" in the past was caused by the true villain--- someone who wanted her dead to steal the special power that she didn't know she possessed. Power that has something to do with the Four Ancient Beasts of the Moonchester Empire: The Red Phoenix, the Blue Dragon, the Golden Tiger, and The Black Serpent. Apparently, she's the Beast Priestess... ... and her lineage isn't supposed to exist anymore. Because of her blood, there are people who want her gone. So now, aside from having a happy life with Kiho and their son, she has a new goal: to burn down the b*tches who want to ruin her family again. *** [EXCERPT] *** [‘Why am I so horny tonight?’] Tilly thought to herself while sucking the crab leg suggestively. And then, she noticed that Captain Kiho gulped while staring at her mouth. [‘Ah, I’m not the only who’s hot and bothered here.’] She didn’t know if it was the alcohol in her system or her desperation to have a child… … but she suddenly felt like flirting with him. They were bound to get married and have a child together anyway. “Captain,” said Tilly as soon as she pulled the crab leg out of her mouth. “I can clearly see that we’re both attracted to each other. Shall we spend the night together?” Kiho remained pokerfaced but she saw panic cross his now glowing yellowish eyes. Ah, the captain was flustered. “My lady, you seem to be really drunk.” She walked towards him and when he didn’t move an inch, she stood in front of him and looked up at him with a grin. “Captain, are you the type of man who will only sleep with his betrothed?” “That seems to be the case, my lady.” He said that as if he was forcing the words out of his mouth. Plus, she could see in his eyes that he was conflicted– that it was hard for him to reject her. [‘Aw, I didn’t know that I have this kind of effect on my ex-husband.’] Or perhaps she just didn’t pay attention in the past. “Captain, I have a solution to your problem,” said Tilly in a playful voice. Then, she stood on her toes and whispered in Kiho’s ear. “Let’s get married.”

Alexandra had a bad life, but loved fantasy novels, the one thing that she had never expected though was to reincarnate as the villainess in the novel she was reading. I'm not very good at describing so just read the story and you'll find out! =) This story was inspired by Zerin_Lee's books

“Tempted by the demoness” was just another romance cultivation novel. Ming Shan, the female lead, was a nice and innocent girl with a tragic backstory, a demon raised in a righteous sect, facing the world’s cruelty and abandoned by birth, she would go on many adventures to cultivate the dao with the two male leads, each competing for her love. But no hero lacks their villain. Yue Fang, the villainess of the story, would do everything in her power to make the protagonist miserable and steal her man, just to die tragically in the middle of the book, not even worth two lines to describe her final moments. There was no way that girl could have avoided her fate. However, what if one were to be transmigrated as Yue Fang? Knowing the contents of the novel, one might not face much difficulty. But what if that person was a foreigner that never read the book or even knew what Xianxia is? They needed to be the most unlucky human alive. Luckily, Camila would never have to worry about that.
