The Wife I Picked Up

Athena, Earth’s most glamorous lone assassin and the seal bearer of the Death Goddess, met her end on her final mission. She succeeded in eliminating the world’s most powerful Mafia leader with her bare hands, but it came at the ultimate cost, her life. Or so she thought. Instead of the eternal rest she expected, Athena’s soul transmigrated into the body of Athena Demerin, a rising celebrity in the Interstellar Era of the Andromeda Galaxy. As the cherished granddaughter of the Northern Duke on planet Asenus, the original Athena had strived to carve out her own path to stardom without leaning on her family’s immense power. But ambition came with a heavy price. She died from exhaustion… or so the official story claimed. The truth? Someone orchestrated her death. Now, the new Athena has inherited not only this body but its unresolved mysteries. Determined to unravel the secrets behind the original Athena's death and fulfill her dreams, she must also navigate a world of fame, family legacies, and interstellar intrigue. But life throws her another curveball, a marriage to Major General Mors Jericho, the galaxy’s most brilliant young warrior. Revered by millions, he is admired for his strength, intelligence, and commanding presence. Yet beneath the surface of this union lies a web of secrets that could shift the balance of power across the galaxy. As she uncovers the truth behind the forces conspiring against her, Athena must confront her own feelings about Mors. Can a marriage built on duty transform into love? Or will her husband turn out to be her greatest adversary? Will she follow her heart, carve her own destiny, or succumb to the shadows of her past?

Destiny has one job—to get things right. Unfortunately, when it comes to Poll Nightvale, it spectacularly dropped the ball. Reincarnated into a world where magic isn’t just a tool but the very fabric of existence, Poll is anything but your typical hero. He’s a wildcard, a misfit genius with a mischievous streak wide enough to outwit gods and charm devils. Armed with the cunning of a con artist and the brilliance of a mad scientist, he’s here to turn this second shot at life into his own personal playground—and maybe save the world in the process. When Poll awakens to his dormant mana powers, he quickly realizes that magic is as chaotic and dangerous as destiny itself. Instead of bowing to tradition, he rewrites the rules, fusing science and sorcery in ways that terrify the establishment. His experiments are explosive, his plans borderline insane, but somehow, they always seem to work—well, most of the time. But destiny’s screw-up doesn’t end there. Poll discovers a shadowy threat lurking within the world’s mana—a corruption so insidious it threatens to unravel existence. While others would crumble under the weight of such a revelation, Poll smirks, cracks a joke, and gets to work. Chaos is his comfort zone, and impossible odds? Just another day at the office. With his sharp mind, devil-may-care attitude, and a ragtag team of companions who can barely keep up, Poll sets out to tackle a threat beyond comprehension. Along the way, he proves that heroes aren’t always chosen—they’re made. And sometimes, the best way to fix destiny’s mistakes is to blow them up and start over. Join Poll Nightvale on a journey of cunning schemes, explosive experiments, and chaotic brilliance. In a world teetering on the edge of annihilation, Poll isn’t just rewriting the rules—he’s rewriting fate itself. After all, when destiny screws up, it takes someone extraordinary to set things right. "Can’t wait for the next chapter? Unlock early access and read new chapters one week before everyone else!
