Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.

The deal was to make the aloof man named Ryu Ken fall in love with her, only to leave him heartbroken and devastated afterward. Would she succeed, and if she did, would she be able to escape Ryu’s wrath? Ryu Ken, a ruthless CEO who never gave a second glance to any woman how-much-ever beautiful she was, gave his heart to one woman. And despite his warnings, the woman broke his heart and left him. So he vowed to find her and punish her as brutally as he could. But could he really punish her when deep in his heart it was still her he longed to be? Could love overcome the hate buried in his heart? ====== Excerpt: "Leaving already? You seem to be in such a rush to talk to me. Why don't you spill it out now?" Stunned, Arya wondered if she was hallucinating. The voice was very familiar. The man's arm encircled her waist, abruptly pulled her towards him. He then leaned forward and scornfully whispered into her ear, "Aren't you here to negotiate? I was hoping you had a better offer." She tilted her head to look up at the rude man and was left open-mouthed looking at a familiar face. She was shocked but mumbled, "Ryu?" Ryu smirked and stared at Arya's slightly opened lips and said, "Did you miss me? How about this?" Before Arya could utter another word, Ryu captured her lips abruptly and kissed her roughly. ========== Author's Note: Hope you enjoy reading this ORIGINAL novel of mine (It's absolutely a happy ending!

A world ten times larger, and a society ten times bigger. A radioactive virus was made that killed everyone in under a week. People kill others on the fifth day due to hallucinations, since these people can’t be saved they simply die. I had the vaccine and survived. Who is born? For it is who you ask for when you want an identity. Not why, not how, not even a question of any other sort. You say who am I when you want to recall your past and your worth in the world. So I ask who is born? WHAT DOES FUTURISM SHOW YOU? COULD YOU PREVENT THE DEATH OF EVERYONE, AND IF SO WOULD THAT BE A BLESSING?

Life will eventually come to an end. This is a truth born from the laws of entropy. But the life of 'Humanity' will not come to an end from something so boring as the universe's heat death. But what would happen if this was no more than a simulation, not a digital, or even psychedelic hallucination. What if it was the result of something's curiosity about sentient life and the conditions that invoke it's creation? If it was interested about the possibility of life in the complete absence of something that it possessed in abundance? What if we have been working with a universe that is incomplete, missing an important element or piece that augments and sustains life in perpetuity? What if, in spite of this entity's power, it is unable to save us from a quick and painful end borne of our own progress, but which we could have never seen coming. What would happen to a humanity reduced to but two individuals if they were thrust into an ancient intergalactic society, constantly warring with itself over such minor inconveniences as spilled milk? Groomed from a young age to perform this task without his knowledge or his permission, our protagonist must figure out how to safeguard the future, and he has an idea as to how.

Lance's first memory of the world is him holding a knife while the old lady, Geneva, is holding her neck down the floor. One minute ago, he's just a gamer sitting comfortably on his work desk, eating his favorite chips, and cursing on the screen. Why? Because the evil character, Geneva, suddenly showed up behind him and almost killed him. Her screeching almost caused his eardrums to burst and is annoying to the point that he wanted to punch the computer to lay his hand on her. So why? Why does the dead Geneva look so real right now? Is he hallucinating because of his heightened annoyance to the NPC. Slightly losing his mind and touch on reality, Lance kicked the unmoving lady. The small tension he felt made him imagine that the dead Geneva suddenly rose up, alive, and attacked him again. "Ah!" he screamed. But the lady remains dead. However, for Lance, she's someone he needs to kill to survive. So even though the lady has no way to attack him now, Lance continued to bury the knife he has in his hand to Geneva's cold body. "Die! Die b*tch, you, f...cking b*tch. Die! Die! Die!"

In a company meeting, I was listening attentively to the leader's lecture when I suddenly heard a charming voice. "George Wilson, the nerd, doesn't even look at me, but I haven't seen him for years. He's so handsome now. He seems pretty majestic too, and I don't know what it's like to be fu*ked by him." I looked up incredulously to see who was so bold as to rush to say such things at a meeting where the cold and beautiful chairman was present and to call me by my name directly. Did we know each other before? But I looked around and found that everyone was all serious as if they hadn't heard anyone speak at all, and I thought I was hallucinating, but I heard the voice again, "Gee, I really want to be nailed by him. Why don't I take him to my office later?" I was shocked to sweep from the face of each female colleague, but everyone was serious in the meeting, and only the beautiful chairman would glance at me from time to time. I thought I had been caught off guard, hurried to pretend to listen carefully, and the voice also disappeared, but at the end of the lecture, I was surprised to find that her voice was actually the same as the voice I heard, although the tone was different, it was definitely one person. Could it be that she was the one who just spoke? Did we know each other before? Just when I was surprised, the meeting ended, and the beautiful chairman also looked at me and said, "George, why don't you come to my office!" I looked at the beautiful chairman in shock. Was it really her? And she wanted me to go to her office to have sex with me?

Then, Yun Si successfully hugged him. “Jiu Ge, Jiu Ge, I want to kiss you.” The gentleman poked her forehead and said, “Miss, please behave.” The seductive Red Spider Lily spirit blinked her beautiful eyes and stood on tip toes. She easily got what she wanted. Thus, the little spirit was punished into making a copy of precepts because she did something wrong. The little spirit continued to hound after the gentleman. The gentleman looked down at their linking hands and said softly without getting angry, “You’re a lady, so you should conduct yourself with dignity.” “I don’t want to!” The little spirit stayed close to him and never left his side.

When the woman took a step forward, the gentleman’s face immediately darkened, and he kicked her away. Then, he barked coldly, “Get lost.” The woman fled in tears.

His family's wealth and his groundbreaking invention, a vaccine for a devastating virus that plagued the world in 2019, mean little without one essential element: love. Haunted by unnerving hallucinations that he believes to be signs of developing schizophrenia, his life seems destined to descend into darkness. However, just as he reaches his breaking point, an unforeseen encounter alters the course of his existence. A mysterious entity materializes before him, offering an opportunity to venture into unexplored realms beyond human comprehension. In a surreal world of menus, systems, and the prophecy of being the chosen one, his purpose becomes clear: he must confront the dreaded demon lord and emerge victorious. As he embarks on this perilous journey, he gradually unravels the enigmatic nature of his enigmatic companion. Uncovering a truth more astonishing than he ever fathomed, he learns the harsh reality that in a world consumed by chaos, survival often requires embracing one's inner demons. "In a world that's gone to hell, you have to be the devil to survive." - Mika --------------------- Tags: Adventurers | Another World | Clingy Lover | Crafting | Cunning Protagonist | Demi-Humans | Demons | Dense | Dragons | Dungeon Master | Dungeons | Dwarfs | Elves | Evil Gods | Fantasy World | Game Elements | Goblins | Goddesses | Godly Powers | Golems | Guilds | Heroes | Human-Nonhuman Relationship | Kingdom Building | Lack of Common Sense | Late Romance | Lazy | Loli | Love Interest | Magic | Magical Space | Male | Misunderstandings | Monster Girls | Monsters | Multiple POV | Nobles | Phoenixes | R-18 | Religions | Romantic Subplot | Royalty | Ruthless | Skill Books | Slaves | Sleeping | Slow | Succubus | Summoned Hero | Summoning | Sword And Magic | Transported to Another World | Vampires | Weak Strong | Werebeasts | Army | Arrogant Characters | Betrayal | Calm | Cold Interests | Comedic Undertone | Confident | Cruel | Dark Demon Lord | Depictions Cruelty | Discrimination | Enemies Become Allies | Genius | Handsome | Humanoid | Kuudere | Low-key | Loyal Subordinates | Manipulative | NEET | Perverted | Politics | Poor Rich | Psychopaths | Revenge | Schemes Conspiracies | Selfish | Special Abilities | Strategic Battles | Strategist | Time Skip | Torture | Transmigration into a Game World | Twisted Personality | Underestimated | Wars | Witches | Yandere --------------------- Please note that the pace of this story is intentionally slow.
