Emmeline Vance

Duke Barlow and His Sweet Root Queen

[Version 1] “You wanted a serious marriage with me, that's what you said. And now you’re trying to secretly meet your brother,” Vance said, pushing Liquorice onto the bed. At that moment, their eyes met. Liquorice could see dangerous gold sparks radiating strongly from his usually harmless black eyes. And she can smell the scent of the forest after the rain, that was Vance’s pheromone. “Yes. I tried, but what you did was push me away. Vance, our marriage is only political, you said so,” Liquorice replied firmly. “Are you angry with me about it?” Vance took his duchess’s hand and placed a kiss on her beautiful hand. His voice was as seductive as the sing of the fairy Anastasia. However, this time, Liquorice wouldn’t be weak, “This is a political marriage, I have no reason to be angry.” “Then why do you keep saving me, over and over again?” Vance looked into his duchess’s emerald eyes, unable to hide his confident smile. Liquorice pulled her hand away from him, “I did it for my own benefit.” Vance leaned close to her ear and whispered, “You know you can’t fool me with such a fragile lie. Sweet Root, don’t go anywhere and stay with your husband tonight.” [Version 2] "Enter Jadeherb and destroy it from within, this is your mission," Duke Truman told her. "My dear little sister, go into Jadeherb and bring me valuable information to awaken the mystical dragon. When I become the king of the seven empires, no one will be able to harm you," her brother told her. "My duchess, my Sweet Root, come to me, I will protect you," Duke Barlow told her. For centuries, there were no kings, only 7 dukes ruling their empires, and the Council regulated power. This was how the world worked. In the Council, the no-end war between the Reds and the Blues was obvious. However, an unexpected political marriage took place. The groom was Vance II Barlow, the Duke of Jadeherb, representing the Blues. The bride was Liquorice Ryland, whose godfather was the duke representing the Reds, Klay Truman. The council informed the people that this marriage was a handshake of friendship between the Reds and the Blues, ushering in a new era of peace, but Liquorice did not believe it. Because she had been trained to be a spy for the past year. Liquorice understood that she was just a small pawn on the chessboard of men. Who will Liquorice choose? What will be the end of the battle between the Reds and the Blues? Are there any other plots going on?

Without hesitation, he raised his hand and delivered a harsh slap across Lee Seungmin's tear-stained cheek. "What the hell is going on here?" Zade demanded, his voice low and dangerous. He glared down at Lee Seungmin, who was now clutching his reddened cheek, fresh tears spilling from his eyes. "I don't want to hear any excuses. You've gone too far this time."

I'm sorry for causing trouble..." She trailed off, letting out another pitiful whimper. Zade sighed heavily, shaking his head. "It's fine, sweetheart. Don't worry about it." He glanced back at Lee Seungmin, who was still sitting on the floor looking utterly defeated. W-what..? Baby and sweetheart..? shocked “U..u..u are cheating on me..?” Zade's eyes widened slightly at Lee Seungmin's shocked accusation. For a moment, he seemed taken aback, his brows furrowing together in confusion. Then, realization dawned on his face and he let out a harsh bark of laughter. "Cheating? On you?" He shook his head slowly, his lips curling into a mocking smirk. "Don't flatter yourself, Lee. We may be married on paper, but we both know it means nothing more than a convenient arrangement." Laura shifted uncomfortably beside him, her earlier bravado faltering under the weight of Lee Seungmin's devastated expression. She bit her lip, glancing away guiltily. Zade, however, remained unfazed. He took a step closer to Lee Seungmin, looming over the smaller man with a cold, imperious air. i flustered sigh “Oh..” i throw ur lunch on the floor and walk away while crying

Reincarnated Supreme Arcane Emperor's Machinations

“Eat shit!” Those were the last two words I shouted before creating the largest supernova and targeting the unknown enemies that called themselves The Order. Everyone was affected, me included. In the end, I, Emperor Vance, died using my own hands. I thought this was it. The Darkness that enveloped me is known as death. That changed when my gaze fell on the pulsating light that joined my presence in the expanse of darkness. It was Arcane; the accumulation of my learnings, the system of magic I built, and the sole owner of the mysterious power was with me in death. ‘Arcane’ enveloped itself to me, becoming the sole radiating light in the dark world. “How long has it been?” However, that single memory I had remaining in this ‘world’ seems to be becoming the only recollection I have left. I’ve become lost in time, drowning myself in the darkness. The only thought that crossed my mind was enduring yet another day in the same situation. Whoosh—! Not until it looked like I was being sucked outside of this nothingness. ‘What the fuck!’ For some strange reason, I felt tears fall down my cheeks, and I had no control over them. “Uwah!” In the first place, why am I crying? ‘And how is it possible to feel someone carrying my back?’ Amidst a series of strange occurrences, four simple words instantly made me realize exactly what was happening. “Congratulations! It’s a boy!” I’ve been reincarnated back into my own world.

Mantra Knights

a world where everyone is born with the ability to harness Mantra—a mysterious energy that enhances physical abilities—individuals train to become Mantra Knights, warriors who uphold peace and justice. Only a select few, however, are gifted with a rare and powerful ability known as a Special Manifestation—unique powers that set them apart from ordinary knights. While all Mantra Knights can rise to high ranks through strength and skill, those with Special Manifestations hold even greater potential. At 16, Axel Killamon has dreamed of becoming a Mantra Knight, and now faces the opportunity to join the elite group, Swords of Symphony, led by the youngest and most powerful Lance, Xavier Gray. Xavier, known for his unmatched power and his uncompromising stand against evil, carries a heavy burden of responsibility. Alongside Axel is his rival and best friend, Asaya Vance, a brilliant fighter who wields Plasma Kinesis, a rare and devastating Special Manifestation. As the recruits undergo rigorous trials, they discover that being a Mantra Knight means far more than battle and honor. A dark organization known as the Hollow Ward, a secretive group of masked assassins, begins to emerge, targeting recruits and spreading fear. When a fellow recruit is brutally murdered by a member of Hollow Ward, the stakes become deadly. Axel, Asaya, and the rest of Swords of Symphony are pulled into a dangerous game, where even strength and strategy may not be enough to stop the growing threat. As the masked enemies close in, secrets about Special Manifestations and the true history of Mantra Knights start to surface. With growing danger and rising tensions, Axel must learn to control his own power and face enemies far more powerful than they could have ever imagined.

Oh! My Empress

Kim Su Won, a corporate slave in the modern world with average skills in life, is abandoned by her boyfriend of two years. In her sorrow, she gets alcohol poisoning and transmigrates to a historical transmigration web novel. Very cliché, right? However, she gets transmigrated not into a side character who ends up taking place of the main character nor the villainess who flips the whole plot. Neither does she end up in the body of a male character to make the novel a gender bender. She has ended up in the body of the 12 years old female lead, Emmeline Whittemore, the daughter of one of the richest ducal families in the kingdom of Krislabet, four years before the original transmigration was to happen in the novel. “Past memories of the original body? Check.” “I must have finally gotten some magical powers.” “No? It’s okay, may be some spiritual space?” “That is absent too! How about some magical item?” “That’s not present either? Must be some hidden cultivation techniques?” “No? No magical pets either? Then it must be a system for sure! I must complete quests and level up!” “No? F***! I am doomed!” Now Kim Su Won has to navigate this completely new world, without much knowledge apart from the characters that will appear four years later in Emmeline Whittemore’s life. Follow Kim Su Won as she adjusts to the new life, correcting the past regrets she had in her original life and learning the rules and regulations of this place where the schemes abound, and each white lotus is racing towards becoming the crown princess. Wait a minute! And what about the girl who was supposed to transmigrate originally into Emmeline Whittemore’s body? What will be the fate of Kim Su Won?
