Light Hearted Historical

Aethelgard was swallowed by the grey. The Void, a cosmic imbalance twisted into a suffocating reality, has claimed the world, leaving behind only silence, ash, and forgotten ruins. Within this desolate landscape, a small child named Kael awakens, the sole survivor of a village erased from existence. Traumatized and alone, his only companion is a warm, guiding presence he names Vispera – a whisper of light and life in the all-consuming darkness. But Kael is not just a survivor; he is a vessel. Within him lies a raw, uncontrollable power, a pure light born from the Cosmic Equilibrium's desperate struggle against the Void. This power can push back the grey, repel its monstrous manifestations, and perhaps, restore what was lost. Yet, every time the light flares, Kael pays a devastating price – the Bedel. It steals his memories, his emotions, his fundamental awareness, leaving behind aching voids in his soul. Found by a wary group of survivors in a crumbling sanctuary, Kael's secret is revealed, forcing them to confront the terrifying choice: is the child a cursed harbinger of destruction, or their only hope against the Void and its tyrannical master, Lord Corvus? Bound by his tragic power and the ever-growing Debt of Light, Kael must learn to survive in a world that steals not just lives, but souls.

Han So-Young, 30, single, Korean, and totally uninterested in men — or so she claimed — lived a quiet life until she died heroically saving a stray puppy from a speeding truck. A tragic yet poetic end. What she didn’t expect… was to wake up inside a novel. Not just any novel. A brutal, blood-soaked historical fantasy called Mystery You. A book known for its vicious politics, class warfare, and a body count in the triple digits. A story without romance. Without forgiveness. Without happy endings. Worse yet, she’s transmigrated not as a bystander… But as the villainess herself — Elizabeth Port Shelberg. Daughter of the infamous Shelberg family. Slave owner. War profiteer. Tyrant in pearls and corsets. The woman destined to be executed at the hands of the revolutionary hero, Arthur Penrose, by Volume 3. So-Young has no one. No mysterious system. No help from people. All she has is the memory of how it ends and perhaps a gifted ability she gained after being transmigrated. Now trapped in the 1850s of an alternate world, where slavery still thrives and power is soaked in blood, So-Young has two choices: • Follow the script. • Or burn the whole damn book down. But changing fate won’t be easy. Because in this world… The only thing worse than being powerless is being merciful.

Shangguan Linlang was born into a military family and acquired formidable martial arts skills at a young age. She had a rather fiery personality, and her illustrious military achievements made the Royal Family quite wary of her. In the end, she was sealed away by her deeply beloved fiancé—the Monarch of Yulong Country, Han Ziye—using a forbidden sealing magic. Having just been enthroned as Empress for less than a day, Shangguan Linlang fell into a deep slumber. She thought she would never see the light of day again, but, by a stroke of fate, she was discovered and released by a modern archaeologist, Shangguan Zifeng. The Empress decided to avenge her former disgrace. She went to great lengths to return to ancient times to settle scores with the traitor, Han Ziye. Before the Empress could find him, she herself attracted the attention of the Lord of Demon City—the CEO rumored to have a hand in both the lawful and the underworld, Xuanyuan Wuji. "Who are you people to act so presumptuously before me?" Xuanyuan Wuji's casual scrutiny infuriated Shangguan Linlang, and in a fit of anger, she assumed the posture of the Empress once again. "I am Xuanyuan Wuji. I hope to receive your guidance in the future," Xuanyuan Wuji said, a faint smile on his lips.
