I was really a normal girl... totally normal... I was... I was enjoying my luxurious life as a Duke's daughter. Tea parties, dance parties, beautiful outfits and jewelries...

* At night He was rugged and untamed. That one steamy night left Grace utterly captivated. She coyly stretched out her dainty, snow-white feet, hooking them around his waist as she softly laid down her terms: For the first time, no staying overnight. The second time, the moment he got himself a significant other, she'd vanish from his side. Later on, their liaison would remain strictly on a physical level. No strings of money attached, no emotional fetters, just the most primal and unadulterated desires that flared up when night fell, entwining them like a web spun by countless spiders. And once the moment had passed, she'd straighten her skirt and turn her back on him, cold as ice. *During daytime He was the heir to a vast business empire, now impeccably dressed in a sharp suit, exuding an air of aristocratic reserve. He extended his hand to her with a polite smile, “Hello, Grace.” Grace gritted her teeth in secret dismay. She hastened to call off whatever was brewing between them, only to find herself cornered against the dressing room by the man, with no way out. In that cramped space, he was a relentless predator, and she, his irresistible quarry. His firmness pressed against her soft curves, setting every inch ablaze. Outside the door, her female colleagues were swooning over his chiseled abs. Just a thin partition away, he locked his arm around her willowy waist, seized her delicate hand, and guided it to rest on his taut abdomen, his voice dripping with a sultry allure, “Thought you could slip away? It's far too late for that.”

Kazuki, a young man scarred by the disappearance of his brother Shizuki, who was kidnapped during an important conference they attended with their parents, has dedicated his life to becoming an exceptional investigator. Alongside his best friend Junya, who is also searching for answers about the abduction of his sister, Kazuki has successfully solved numerous criminal cases. One day, their chief assigns them a delicate case: an investigation into "Black Ruby," an elusive gang specializing in stealing precious items. Until now, this group has never left a trace, but during a botched heist that escalates into a shootout, one of the criminals is injured. The team manages to recover a blood sample, a first in the case. However, when DNA analysis reveals that the blood belongs to Shizuki, Kazuki’s long-lost brother, the shock is overwhelming. Although Shizuki has changed his name, certain physical traits confirm his identity. This discovery rekindles the hope of Kazuki and Junya to find their kidnapped loved ones but complicates their mission. Meanwhile, Kazuki struggles with his personal life. His relationship with Mayu, his jealous girlfriend, grows increasingly strained. Mayu views the budding connection between Kazuki and Hyorine, a resilient colleague with a painful past, with suspicion. Hyorine, whose younger sister was also abducted in the past, shares a deep bond with Kazuki and Junya through their shared pain and quest for justice. As the investigation progresses, tensions rise: Mayu, consumed by fear of losing Kazuki, starts making mistakes that risk jeopardizing the mission. On the other hand, Kazuki faces a moral dilemma: continue pursuing "Black Ruby" to bring them down or do everything in his power to save Shizuki, even if it means sacrificing everything. Amid betrayals, revelations, and difficult choices, Kazuki, Junya, and Hyorine must join forces to confront a truth far darker than they ever imagined.

Te haré una pregunta a ti como lector o lectora: ¿crees en lo paranormal? ¿Crees que hay algo más allá de lo normal entre la dualidad de la vida y la muerte? ¿Qué piensas de la gente que muere en accidentes trágicos o por mano propia? ¿Acaso reencarnan o algo por el estilo? Pues déjame decirte, mi estimado o estimada, que la realidad es mucho más siniestra. Todos pensamos que aquellos que ven sombras están locos, ¿verdad? En eso estamos de acuerdo. Pero, ¿qué pasa cuando quienes las observan no están locos y, en realidad, gozan de una salud mental envidiable? Ahí es cuando nos preguntamos: ¿qué pasó ahí? ¿Qué hay de diferente en ellos? Pues eso mismo es lo que les contará su querido narrador. Solo mantengan la mente abierta o podrían quedarse atascados en una parte de su realidad cotidiana.

Cuando abrí los ojos, estaba dentro de una novela. "El nacimiento de un héroe" fue una novela centrada en las aventuras del personaje principal, Choi Han, un chico de secundaria que fue transportado a una dimensión diferente de la Tierra, junto con el nacimiento de los numerosos héroes del continente. Me convertí en parte de esa novela como la basura de la familia del Conde, la familia que supervisaba el territorio donde se encuentra el primer pueblo que visita Choi Han. El problema es que Choi Han se vuelve retorcido después de que esa aldea, y todos en ella son destruidos por asesinos. El mayor problema es el hecho de que este idiota en el que me he convertido no sabe lo que pasó en la aldea y se mete con Choi Han, solo para ser golpeado hasta convertirlo en pulpa. "... Esto va a ser un problema". Siento que me ha pasado algo grave. Pero valió la pena intentar hacer de esta mi nueva vida. Buen día, esta obra maestra no es de mi autoría solo la estoy traduciendo, créditos al autor y a los traductores que la han trabajado, es importante aclarar que quizá haya títulos o géneros de los personajes a veces difíciles de entender, principalmente porque muchos títulos 'honorarios' suelen ser masculinos o por los pronombres coreanos e ingleses.

When I opened my eyes, I was inside a novel. [The Birth of a Hero].

The problem is that Choi Han becomes twisted after that village, and everyone in it, are destroyed by assassins. The bigger problem is the fact that this stupid trash who I’ve become doesn’t know about what happened in the village and messes with Choi Han, only to get beaten to a pulp. “…This is going to be a problem.” I feel like something serious has happened to me. But it was worth trying to make this my new life. DISCLAIMER: I am neither the author nor translator of the story. Please support author on official site. Translation credit: Eatapplepies

Upon awakening, finding myself in the world of a novel I once read – "The Birth of a Hero." This story chronicled the adventures of Choi Han, a high schooler ripped from Earth and deposited in this fantastical realm alongside countless other heroes-in-the-making. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of those heroes. Instead, I landed smack dab in the middle of the story as a member of the despised Count's family. This family just so happened to rule the territory where Choi Han encounters his first village. The problem? That village gets obliterated by assassins, leaving Choi Han deeply traumatized. The even bigger problem? This idiotic, good-for-nothing character I'd become had no clue about the village's destruction and ends up provoking Choi Han. Needless to say, I got flattened. "...This," I groaned, "is a serious predicament." But hey, at least it's a new life, right? Here's hoping it's a bit less... destructive. ------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This is an unofficial translation of the novel "Lout of Count's Family."

Welcome to a world where dragons soar through skies painted with magic, and devils lurk in the shadows cast by ancient portals. Five thousand years ago, a rift opened in the heavens, connecting our world to another—a realm teeming with gods, dragons, and a myriad of fantastical beings. Overnight, the balance of power shifted, and humanity found itself amidst an age of wonders and perils. In this new world, magic is not merely a legend but an everyday reality. It flows through the air, courses through the earth, and pulses within the very essence of life itself. With the advent of magic, humans evolved into heroes, demon lords, and monsters, carving their place in a society now governed by divine beings, dragons, and demi-humans. Three thousand years into this new era, a cataclysmic battle erupted between two mighty dragons—the Dark Dragon and the White Dragon. Their conflict ravaged continents and threatened to plunge the world into eternal darkness. Fearing mutual annihilation, humans, gods, devils, and demi-humans set aside their differences, forging an unprecedented alliance to slay the warring dragons. With great sacrifice and courage, they succeeded. The souls of the Dark Dragon and the White Dragon, however, did not find peace. Instead, they awaited their chance to reincarnate, their destinies bound to new hosts chosen from among humanity. Now, as the world enters its two-thousandth year of peace, the White Dragon has found its bearer—a young warrior named Ryuji. Ryuji, renowned for his valor and mastery of elemental magic, is hailed as the savior who bears the soul of the White Dragon. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to many, the Void Dragon—the counterpart to the White Dragon—awaits its own host, observing humanity from the shadows. As Kazuki Satoru prepares for his first day at a prestigious high school, unaware of the ancient power stirring within him, he finds himself thrust into a world where legends and reality converge. Little does he know, his destiny will soon intertwine with that of the Void Dragon, setting the stage for an epic tale of magic, courage, and the bonds that unite or divide us.

In the stillness of the evening, a sudden, deafening thud shattered the tranquil silence. Zarah’s father, recognizing the uninvited intruders, attempted to flee, only to be seized and brutally beaten by two brawny men. Her mother and sisters watched in horror as their beloved patriarch choked on his own blood. From the shadows, a sinister figure emerged, brandishing a cigarette and cloaked in a woolen coat. "You've ignored my warnings, and now you expect me to show mercy?" He snarled, standing over Zarah's father as he pleaded for his life. "I gave you plenty of time to pay back what you owed. But you ran away with my money, your family, and my cocke." "Please, please, we can work this out!" Zarah's father begged, spitting blood from his battered mouth. The man shook his head, his cruel smirk widening. Too late, amigo," the man sneered. Without hesitation, two gunshots rang out. Zarah's eyes fluttered open, the world a watery blur. What she saw silenced her forever. Her father's head was bashed and bleeding, her mother's stomach torn open. A scream ripped from Zanah's throat, tugging at Zarah's heart. Tears streamed down her face as the horrific realization set in. They were gone.
