Contract Marriage with My Secret Partner in Crime

Zephany Draven is a shy, clumsy celebrity journalist who is constantly ridiculed for not getting the big scoops. She is soft-spoken and easily intimidated, so she looks weak. However, behind closed doors, she's Eclipse, an altogether tougher, loud-mouthed agent and quite ruthless and efficient. Kendrick Montclair is a gentle, positive artist who loves his family and remains optimistic despite his struggles. His gentle nature makes him easy to take advantage of. But secretly, he's Obscura, a cold, ruthless agent who is efficient and silent. Both work as partners in a secret organization that preserves hidden truths erased by governments, yet they remain completely unaware of each other's true identities. Their goal is to reach the highest level of clearance to access classified information. But just when they're on the verge of success, they fail. Then, a mysterious man appears with an offer—a contract marriage in exchange for the information they desperately seek. Trapped with no alternative, they sign the deal. But neither expected what would happen next. ------------- Kendrick and Zephany sat by the glass wall, waiting for their food when a car suddenly crashed through. Kendrick pulled Zephany to safety just in time, but both got small cuts from the broken glass. "Are you okay?" they asked, checking each other. To their astonishment, the cuts healed before their eyes. Their minds raced. "Beside me, the only person I know who has that ability is." "No! She can't be that loud, short-tempered woman!" "No! He can't be that silent, obnoxious man!" "Did I marry my secret partner in crime?" They both shuddered at the thought.

First crime record

Protagonist: Huang Zhong: Male, 17 years old at the beginning of the story, in the critical period of youth rebellion. He is thin, with slightly messy short hair, and his eyes are often stubborn and confused. Because he grew up in a repressive family environment for a long time, he is sensitive and has a strong self-esteem. He usually wears simple T-shirts and jeans, and there are occasionally some stains on his clothes, which is a small portrayal of his unruly life. He lives with his parents in a residential building in an old community. The small and dim room carries his countless sleepless nights. The walls of the room are covered with posters of his favorite rock bands, which is his yearning for freedom. Key characters: Father: Male, in his forties, an ordinary factory worker, busy all day for the family's livelihood. Long-term fatigue makes him slightly hunched, and his face is full of traces of time. He is not good at speaking and has serious communication barriers with Huang Zhong. When Huang Zhong rebels and makes mistakes, he always treats him in a simple and rough way, which also deepens the gap between father and son. Mother: Female, also in her forties, is an ordinary housewife with a gentle but somewhat cowardly personality. Faced with the conflict between her husband and son, she often feels powerless and can only cry secretly. She always manages the big and small affairs of the family, trying to maintain this shaky home with silent efforts. Best friend: Male, about the same age as Huang Zhong, a boy with a generous personality and a strong sense of friendship. He is tall and strong, with two deep dimples when he smiles, giving people a sunny and cheerful feeling. He and Huang Zhong met on the street and experienced many rebellious days together. When Huang Zhong was in danger, he always stood up without hesitation. The injury that time to protect Huang Zhong became an important opportunity for Huang Zhong's life transformation.

My magic weapons are all rule-based

"Master Sun, your sect is now a well-known sword sect in the northern cultivation world. What do you think of Dean Xu?" "I often tell experts that Dean Xu is my idol. When others were hunting him down, he would find ways to make friends, cooperate with him, and train disciples who had reached the foundation building stage. He would no longer continue to train them and sell them all to other sects. Now his disciples are all over the world, and his people are everywhere." "What do the seniors of the magic sect here think of Dean Xu? He has been hiding his identity and mixing in the magic world for many years..." "Don't talk nonsense, reporter! Our gang leader is the most famous demon in southern Xinjiang. The person you are talking about has nothing to do with him!" "Okay, okay, then I want to ask the head of the Qin Dynasty. The Huanhai Sect is the largest sect in Xize. Xu The dean is secretly in charge of the government, engaging in financial frauds and involving countless sects. Now the creditors are denouncing us outside our venue. How do you respond?" "It's ridiculous. Our leader's surname is not Xu. Besides, we don't have any creditors. All the creditors died in the fight for the ancient cultivation inheritance. Those people outside are just hostile sects who deliberately took the opportunity to mess with us." "But according to our investigation, the ancient cultivation inheritance is a new tomb built by Dean Xu, and the people inside were not all blown to death..." "I'm warning you! This is blatant slander!" "Let's put this question aside for now. What do the Donghuang monsters think of him?" "I want to give birth to his children."-----The dragon girl of the dragon clan said so.

I Blue : Reincarnated as a Cursed Crit-Based Swordwoman

As 21 years old Noah wakes up after his attempted suicide, he find out that he has transmigrated into the body of 14 years old Vasilisa, a young noble afflicted with the [Muddy Tongue] status effect preventing them from talking properly and thus using magic. Because of the many misconceptions linked to that status, he is now even more scorned and hated than he was in his previous life. Additionally, he is now in a girl's body—something he finds harder to adapts to than he would have thought at first. Thankfully, he soon find himself the ability to see "the blue", an ability allowing him to pull off critical hits at will. Will this ability allow him to make his way into this strange new world and prevent the ashes of war with demons to reinites themselves? Only the future can tell. ––– W.N : Only the future, huh ? XD Well, I am the author, the one who wrote this thing and this really formulaïc synopsis. The story, I hope, is anything but that, but you will be the judge there. Also, if subjects like suicide and depression makes you feel uncomfortable, maybe you shouldn't read this. The protagonist is not written to be the most positive person in the world and thr world is equally bleak. Expect a lot of violence as I think it somewhat make sense in a world obeying those rules. Also again, I will use game's terminologies without necessarily explaining them in details. Most explanations will be there to highlight how this universe's game mechanics differ from the usual ones. Will the hero/heroine, be OP ? Dunno. I would rather not and their ability isn't so rare to be fair. I have no idea if the main character should be considered a male or a female which is perfect. That's why it a male-lead book with the yuri (girl's love) tag. Now then, I only intended this to be a warning but I ended up rambling. Thank you for reading up until this point and I hope you will enjoy the book. X-)
