“Hades.”

I sincerely called Hades, but in my ears, I could only hear a buzzing sound like water.

“Hades…”

Nevertheless, I kept talking.

Even if I couldn’t hear, at least Hades might be able to.

A finger touched my lips, and with a gentle force, it pressed. The meaning was easy to understand. There was no need to speak anymore.

Laughter kept bubbling up.

What did it matter if I were dead? Hades was by my side.

That’s how it was.

I poured out words that might not even be heard properly.

“You know, Hades.”

I licked my lips. There was no guarantee that the words could be heard, but I wanted to say them.

If I didn’t convey it right now, it felt like it would just linger in my mouth and disappear.

“I wanted it so much.”

Just saying this much should make it clear to Hades.

“I finally got it… but I wasn’t really happy.”

It was the opposite. A world without Hades was just as empty.

“I thought the world I originally belonged to was the world I was in… but it wasn’t.”

I blinked. Tears overflowed through the hazy vision. Seeing my eyes getting itchy, it seemed like tears were flowing, somewhat poignant.

“Do you know what I thought back then?”

I laughed aloud. No, I probably laughed aloud. Something choked made a muffled sound in my ears.

“This is what death is.”

I grabbed a piece of fabric in my hand.

“Without Hades, I’m as good as dead…”

That’s when it happened.

Through the blurry vision, golden letters began to sparkle. I widened my eyes. The familiar writing was undoubtedly…

0 ([Dash]10) Annoying Human

Who is this annoying human?

It starts to get annoying.

What… what did it say?

I doubted my eyes. It wasn’t clearly visible eyes; maybe I misread something?

But the fleeting shape of the flickering golden letters was clear. Hades…

‘Annoying Human.’

As if treating me like a completely unfamiliar person.

‘Have I… possessed a completely different body again?’

If that were the case, Hades’ reaction was completely understandable. He killed even the Demon King to save me, and now a different person came back to life, so he would be angry.

One strange thing was that, under such circumstances, he didn’t seem to show much anger.

I swallowed dry saliva.

If this guess was wrong, and Hades really didn’t have any feelings for me…

‘What did Denesor do?’

I mustered the courage and spoke.

“Hades, it’s me. Angelica. I don’t know what I look like right now… but can’t you recognize me? There aren’t many people as kind, beautiful, and smart as I am, right? Besides, a tough woman like me who doesn’t give up on life is even rarer.”

This should be enough for him to recognize who I am… or so I thought.
0 ([Dash]30) Clearly, there’s perjury

Oh my! I don’t trust you at all.

Whatever you said, it didn’t seem very convincing.

It was pitch black in front of my eyes. Perjury, huh? Perhaps I had entered a completely different body. Maybe… something like a grandfather?

‘I can’t hear my voice, and I can’t see myself, so it’s frustrating to death.’

I kicked my feet. It was a signal to go down, but Hades seemed to have understood it differently.

0 ([Dash]40) Prisoner

The other party has decided to treat you, this suspicious person, as a prisoner.

Fortunately, they seem to think it’s better to interrogate later.

What luck.

I wanted to scream, but I suppressed the thought. At this point, the more I reacted, the more my favor would decrease.

Finally, Hades stopped walking.

Was he trying to go back to the empire?

However, there was no sign of the distinctive energy of teleportation magic stones.

Currently, with my eyes and ears blocked, my senses were very sensitive, so it was a clear fact that Hades wasn’t going back.

Instead, he threw me into a place that seemed rough.

I only realized its identity after something entered my mouth.

‘Dust!’

Hades Kroteunter had thrown me into a room full of straw.

Before I could recover from the shock, Hades muttered something.

The meaning was completely incomprehensible, but probably…

0 ([Dash]60) What should I do?

The Demon King fell into great confusion.

How on earth should he deal with this woman who wanted to twist her neck right now?

I blinked, and blinked again.

Although it was a blurry vision, the writing was clear.

That absurd message contained three meanings.

First, Hades wants to kill me.

Second, despite that, he is in a dilemma.

Finally…

Hades Kroteunter has become the Demon King.

‘Where did this crazy woman come from?’

The Demon King furrowed his brows. The woman who suddenly appeared, shedding tears and pouring out incomprehensible words, did not seem sane at all.

Although he imprisoned her, considering her unusual appearance, it felt uneasy to leave her alone in prison.

‘…’

But the Demon King didn’t kill the woman.

Firstly, he was curious about the woman’s identity, and secondly, she was the first being to evoke any emotion in him.

‘…Strange.’

The Demon King fell into thought.

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Synopsis:

“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”

Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.

While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the  Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
