“It would be nice to be able to eat and live without having to go to dangerous places to mine ores.”
“Mining ores?”
“If you have no money and nowhere to go, you can’t be picky about how you make a living.”
Luella was so happy that she was about to dance, but suddenly remembered her level. She hastily opened the game screen to check her class slot.
The skill slot was still empty, and no class was indicated.
It was only natural. In the game, being level 1 was like being a newborn baby. Just as you don’t know what kind of adult you’ll be until you grow up, users couldn’t choose a class until they reached level 5.
It was unknown when she would reach level 5, especially since the experience gained through hunting was scant, and there weren’t many quests to complete either.
‘It’s completely unthinkable, huh?’
In a sighworthy situation, she found herself muttering softly in front of Kite.
“I’m level 1. It’s a long way to becoming a healer.”
“Level 1? I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I told you earlier. I was planning to awaken.”
Awakening referred to job advancement within the game.
“Did you die before you could awaken?”
“Yes.”
“So you resurrected me? Did you use black magic or something?”
“Ancient magic. Only one person in the whole world can do it. It’s the ability of a magician named Senhwi. He can summon the souls of the dead with the most noble blood of Elrav.”
Now she understood.
No, she didn’t. If she dissected what was said, she might find herself in a more serious situation than she thought. Ancient magic to summon dead souls? Was she, a South Korean, dead?
She felt a little disappointed and sad. She had been living earnestly in someone else’s body without even knowing she had died.
Suddenly, she wondered if this was really the world inside the game.
She thought about various things to make sense of why the situation had turned out this way, but there were no answers.
In the end, Luella arbitrarily thought that this was another dimension, and an unknown existence that could travel between two dimensions had created the game called Hellane.
It was best not to think too deeply about complicated things. If you start to question existence, you can fall into an endless quagmire.
“It seems you’ve come to the wrong place, then.”
Since the other party had spoken honestly, she felt she should spill everything too. Anyway, if she was to face the Balder Guild, she needed their help.
She didn’t know how they would react to her words, but she believed the conversation would go well.
After all, they needed a healer, and if healers were such rare entities, all they could do was wait for her body to awaken.
“What are you talking about?”
“It seems there was an error when summoning the soul. I’m not Luella Rominin.”
Kite’s expression twisted.
“If you’re not Luella Rominin, then who the hell are you?”
“Well, since the original me seems to have died, a name doesn’t really matter. Anyway, I’m not someone who lived in this world. It seems my soul was mistakenly placed into Luella Rominin’s body.”
Kite’s gaze, which had been looking at Luella as if she were crazy, turned serious.
“A different soul?”
“Yes.”
“So the exterior is Luella Rominin, but inside is someone else?”
“That’s what I’m saying.”
Kite pressed his forehead with a headache expression, looking up at the ceiling for a long time. Finally, he got up and spoke.
“Tell me in detail.”
At Kite’s serious question, Luella hesitated to tell her story.
“There’s not much to tell. I don’t remember anything from the day before I met you at the party.”
“How did you get to the party if you don’t remember?”
“The maids sent me there. I didn’t want to tell them I had lost my memory. I somehow felt like I shouldn’t say it? It was like instinct.”
Kite nodded as if he understood.
“You narrowly escaped detection. So what?”
(Translated by AnnaTT599)
The atmosphere at the party was unusual, so I roughly guessed the situation I was in. But that alone was not enough to live on, so I asked around as soon as the next day came… That’s when I found out that the maid had been changed two days ago.
“Two days ago?”
“Yes. When I woke up in Luella Rominin’s body. Changing the maid around that time probably means something happened. Probably the fall from the horse you mentioned.”
“I know that Luella Rominin’s death was a suicide. If what you say is true, Luella Rominin died from a horseriding accident before committing suicide, even before the date we knew… I don’t know what happened.”
Kite shook his head as if he couldn’t figure it out, and Luella asked curiously.
“You said so earlier? That Luella Rominin was going to die on June 2nd.”
“Yes. We revived the dead Luella Rominin and came to the village of Camune for verification.”
Luella’s complexion paled slightly at the words ‘revived.’
“How could you know that Luella died?”
When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
