When Ysabel wakes up in Lilymorn Monastery, she’s hit with the bitter irony of her situation—most people who get transported to another world end up as powerful heroes or legendary rulers. But her? An orphan in her old life, and still an orphan here. If anything, her life has only gotten worse. At six years old, a noble family adopts her, and for a fleeting moment, she dares to believe her luck has changed. It has—but only for the worse. From that point on, her life becomes a downward spiral of misery and pain. Then comes the most crushing realization: this world isn’t just random. It’s the setting of a storybook she once read. But Ysabel isn’t the heroine—she’s just a side character, one destined to die a meaningless death for the sake of someone else’s happy ending. Her tragic demise is barely a footnote, a throwaway sentence in the grand narrative. But Ysabel refuses to accept that fate. In a world teeming with nobles, elves, and powerful mages, she carves out her own destiny, forging deep connections with those she meets and unraveling the secrets of this magical realm. As the layers of the story peel back, so do the mysteries of why she’s really here—and what it all means. In the end, Ysabel breaks free from the chains of the story, smashing the script written for her. She becomes the protagonist of her own epic adventure, turning a doomed fate into a legend of her own making.

When the world turned into a twisted fairy tale, survival became the only happy ending. Survive the story… or become part of it. One moment, Ryleigh Stewart was living her perfectly controlled life. The next, Earth was reset into a twisted fairytale apocalypse, where reality shifts like a storybook gone wrong. Shadow wolves prowl the streets. Fairy tale protagonists turned evil. And an eerie voice whispers a single warning: "Attention, inhabitants of Earth. Your world has been reset. Your survival is no longer guaranteed." "Find the book. Find the weapon. Fix the stories… or die." But she’s not alone. Enter Chase Hendrix—her insufferable workplace rival, now her only ally in this nightmare. Cocky, reckless, and impossible to ignore, Chase is the last person Ryleigh wants to rely on. But with cursed kingdoms, deadly monsters, and merciless rulers hunting them down, trust isn't a choice—it’s survival. "This is madness," Chase mutters as they crouch behind the ruins of a once-modern city, now a medieval wasteland. "Shadow wolves, fairy tale overlords, and now we’re supposed to fix broken stories?" "We survive first," Ryleigh corrects, gripping her magic bow—the only weapon she trusts. "Everything else comes second." "Great. Love that mindset." He smirks. "You know, for someone who hates me, you sure do stick close." "For someone who loves running his mouth, you sure do have a death wish." Enemies-to-lovers. Reluctant allies. Twisted fairytales. Action-packed survival. The chapter has begun. Here's to a Happily Apocalypse After!

In human history, a hundred years is a lifetime, a thousand years is an era, and in a hundred thousand years, entire human societies rise and fall, ceasing to exist. Humanity is but a tiny minority within a vast tapestry of innumerable universes, dimensions, and planets; each is home to unique civilizations and species. The King of Faries, once merely a legend from children’s storybooks and moral tales, now looms large in myth. Once upon a time, there was a King who possessed everything: riches, luxuries, entertainment, yet he cared for none of it because his heart was consumed by a single obsession: his own handsome face. The entire Fairy Realm was adorned with his portraits and statues, and even the architecture bore his visage. Anything that did not mirror his image was met with disdain. Driven by his narcissism, one fateful day a dream came to him—a vision of the grandest and most beautiful statue ever witnessed, one to rival the heavens themselves. But as his obsession grew, the kingdom’s once vibrant streets fell silent. The people suffered under the weight of a ruler who saw only his own beauty in every monument. The colossal statue, crafted from Pure Mythril, a substance so luminous it was said to unmake a soul, shone with an intensity both mesmerizing and ominous. …to be continued.

Everyone has their perceptions of Knights. The most common ones are found in storybooks. Shining armor, a gallant steed, glistening weapons, a coat of arms, exacting justice. Don’t make me laugh. It was all buttered up the way they wanted it to be, and I was just as foolish as to believe them until I saw. The atrocities they committed that went against the code of honor they swore upon. And because I saw, they came to me. The ones who wanted to fix this dastardly system with their hands and fix this rotten empire. And so I accept the realization that chivalry is dead. *This is not a LitRPG story!

A world full of fantasy is one you will only see in storybooks. Demons, ghosts, witches, wizards, dragons, saints; you never see those in the modern world.

But I never expected to be one of those people to transmigrate. Hey, should I act like a proper villainess and have fun?
