The village girl who was close to death from illness was about to marry, and her suitor was a strong and hearty hunter. Having time-traveled to a poor and backward mountain village, she had resigned herself to the lack of three square meals a day, but was her new body already halfway into the grave? What's more curious was that someone still wanted to marry her despite being on her deathbed? Driven by curiosity, she went ahead with the marriage, eager to see who the unlucky sap was who'd lose his betrothal gifts and even the coffin money. Cradled in his arms, her body was thin as a rake, and she really wanted to ask him, "Husband, does holding me hurt your hands?"

Yatim piatu di usia muda, Layla Llewellyn merasa seperti gadis paling beruntung di dunia setelah dia tinggal bersama pamannya Bill, seorang tukang kebun yang tinggal di perkebunan Arvis yang indah di Berg Empire. Bagi Layla, Arvis tampak seperti surga; Ia suka menjelajahi hutan yang luas, selalu membawa buku catatannya untuk mencatat satwa liar yang ditemuinya. Dia sangat menyukai burung-burung, mengamati mereka dengan kagum saat mereka menetas dan tumbuh dari anak ayam berbulu halus menjadi burung yang cantik. Duke Herhardt, penguasa Arvis yang muda dan tampan, juga tertarik pada burung―dan Layla. Tapi bedanya, dia tertarik pada burung karena dia suka memburunya... dan dia tertarik pada Layla karena dia suka membuatnya menangis. Jika seekor burung cantik terjebak dalam sangkar emas, mana yang akan ia pilih: kehidupan mewah atau kebebasan?

Transmigration. There were many other variants like reincarnation, regression, and even reverse transmigration. Among those, regression were probably my favorite. There was just something satisfying about reliving life once again and doing better than before using knowledge of the future. Perhaps it was so popular because people liked to imagine reliving their life all over again and changing all the decisions they regret. And I had to admit that there was a time that I felt the same. But the days when I would read such a story for weeks were long gone. Except, during the nights I can’t fall asleep. To this day, these stories were still cherished somewhere in my heart. If possible, I'd like to pass my days reading it after an exhausting day at work. But the sudden sharp pain in my head jolted me awake. There was only one thing in my mind right now. It happened to me. That so called Transmigration. - I will also be posting this story on Royal Road and Scribble Hub besides WebNovel!

List of Books I will be reading on Qidian.

In the Kingdom of Orlos, only those who have any kind of talent will receive fortune and glory. In a competitive society, only those considered strong would survive, but their strength will be determined by the star that shines on their birthday. The archdukedom of Felnatus has four heirs, all born into wonderful and auspicious stars, but one hidden heir is treated like a lowborn in the family.

Stories that were started but never ended; they are written from years ago and rewritten to alleviate as much embarrassment as possible.

The words that make readers cry—what they did to the writer. They tore at the soul, clawed their way through the heart, and demanded to be bled onto the page. This story is born not of ink but of wounds, of the fractures between black and white, snow and fire, love and hatred. In these pages, contradiction reigns. A love so fierce it ignites wars within, a hatred so tender it whispers of longing. The voices are many, yet they share one heart—a battleground where passion and betrayal, beauty and cruelty, fight for dominance. Here, the fragile walls of a mind crumble as it struggles to reconcile with the angel who became the war, with the devil who promised salvation. It’s a story of falling, of building, of breaking, and of daring to love even when it destroys. Turn the page and enter the chaos, if you dare.

Captain Leon Winston of the Western Command of the Kingdom of Ripon, Domestic Intelligence Division. Despite his elegant and noble appearance, he is known as the "Vampire of Campton" for his relentless torture of rebels, making him both revered and cursed by allies and enemies alike. "I always wanted to shove my pistol into you and stir it around." Oddly enough, the maid of the torture chamber, Sally Bristol, became the object of his uncontrollable desire, much like the rage he felt towards the rebels. She was just an ordinary, unremarkable woman... So why did the scent of her blood keep arousing him? The mystery didn't last long. The moment her name slipped from the lips of a rebel spy, he realized it. He no longer needed to suppress his violent desires. "I refrained because I didn't want to hurt a good girl, but now there's no need to hold back. Thank you, Sally. Oh, no... Grace." If you want to live, beg me. You never know, I might just grant your wish. RATED-18

Lilith was the very definition of aristocratic perfection. From a young age, she shone as the brightest star in high society. Mastering exotic languages, stitching with meticulous precision, and gliding through ballrooms as if she were floating were as natural to her as breathing. Every smile was rehearsed, every word measured, and every movement designed to reinforce her image as the ideal future lady, and eventually, the perfect queen. It wasn’t just talent; it was discipline, effort, and, let’s be honest, a dangerously obsessive streak. Rumors in the upper echelons of society described her as a prodigy, though some also considered her a mirror so polished it reflected nothing genuine. Then, the accident happened. A slip of fate (or the rug, who knows) left her with nine years of meticulously crafted effort reduced to ashes. She woke up with no memories of her stellar track record or the rules that had made her an icon. Goodbye to perfectly synchronized dances; hello to clumsy attempts at remembering how to hold a teacup without looking like a peasant. Her parents, desperate to restore the lost glory, devised a rigorous regimen: in three years, Lilith must reclaim all her manners, skills, and knowledge to be ready as a queen candidate. What would normally take a decade, she has to achieve in record time. Lilith, who now can’t tell the salad fork from the dessert fork, faces an educational marathon that would make even the most dedicated tutor nervous. Will Lilith regain her throne as the perfect lady of society, or will her fall become eternal gossip among the tea party ladies? One thing is certain: perfection doesn’t include laughing at herself, and that might just be her greatest challenge.
