Waking up one morning and finding out that the ruin and rise of the kingdom is a choice that hers to make... Sterne could only think of one thing: Total headache!... more>>

Of all the people in the land why did it have to fall on her sickly shoulders?

What? Can't choose any better candidate but choose this future disaster instead? Great move!

Seriously, what were the gods thinking?

"Aahhh, blast it! No choice then, let's do it." Decides the poor little girl.

“Okay, first step: Let’s make some brandy.”

…that’s a maybe then.

Hermit’s Note: My take on the kingdom building genre, which often suffers from weak characters, low stakes and contrived challenges. Buildup will be slow, with Book 1 focused on business managment, Book 2 focused on a battle for succession and only Book 3 getting into the depths of kingdom building. There’s plenty of inventions before that point though, so if you’re here for the clever use of modern tech you’ll find quite a bit even early on.

Those fools under-powered my summoning ceremony and I was 'left with the bag'. With inadequate soul potential, I've had to curse myself to create an opportunity to live, perhaps live well in this new world. Or...maybe I just totally screwed myself. Even the goddess got curious when she realized what I had done.... more>>

“So, she finished. I wonder what took her so long to decide...WTF! Interesting! Let’s mark her for further observation to see how things turn out. This girl is perhaps the most entertaining thing to happen in the last few millennia. Hmm, let’s mess with her just a little bit. Tweak this here...and...a little over there. Heheheh. This will be FUN!"~Goddess

She tweaked my status settings after I had spent so long on them just to make things a little more entertaining. Well, at least she only changed some cosmetic and semantics stuff. None of the vital parts of my status were ruined.

The beautiful caretaker of my family often told me stories. From powerful heroes, hateful villains, fluffy beastman, comedic dwarves, rich nobles, mighty dragons, witty gnomes, mischievous fairies and more. I adored all her stories as the characters came to life through her hilarious narrations. ... more>>

One night, after finishing telling her new stories. She stared at me, her pupils shifting hue from crimson to a mystifying lilac, as her lips curled into a beam. The room fell silent, the cool spring wind crept through the open windows. The sweet wind caressing my face.

Bereft from any of its fetters, the wind whispered to the trees, its leaves like an orchestra playing a waltzing tempo for its audience.

It was odd, as if nature itself seemed to be waiting for her words, acknowledging her existence.

It felt like we had arrived at a different place, a land full of unknown and mysteries.

In a soft hum, she then asked me.

"Little master, did you know elves didn't always have pointed ears?"

He held his beautiful head and screamed, "How did this happen to me?!"

After waking up to an unfamiliar ceiling a former man found himself sporting long black hair, fierce red eyes, fair skin, and a rather incredible figure. "This resting b*tch face ..." he contemplated momentarily, "It's totally my preference! But it's totally my face! Totally bad news!"

The only option was to buy time until he could figure out what was going on and very soon he realized, "Aren't I screwed?" He was a duke's daughter engaged to the crown prince of the kingdom and was currently attending a magical academy with a cast of overly hot men happening to be the same age. This was clearly an otome game setting, and with his elegant, flower of evil, villainess face he inwardly broke out in a cold sweat.

The major problem was his total lack of information for he had never heard of the otome game he was currently in. Ergo, he had no idea how to avoid a bad end. However, the true problem was even more profound. "Marrying a man is impossible: I'm only into girls!"

For a full definition and explanation of otome games visit my glossary section.

Reviews, criticisms, compliments, and suggestions for improvement are welcome anywhere and everywhere at any time. By combining our powers let's turn this into a "Critical Success"! Yay!

I poured my heart and soul into the illustration (my first digital drawing) and using a mouse with Gimp makes me never want to do it again! I'll try again next week.

P.S. This is my attempt to join the supreme race known as authors, whom I hold the greatest respect for. And let me tell all the fine people of culture that otome game novels are my element and noble villainess girls are the blood coursing through my veins. Ohoho.

The harsh truth.

Marigold was your average cannon fodder villainess; she schemed and plotted against her perfect half-sister, the heroine, she attempted to assassinate her own twin brother for betraying her, and she tried to defame her fiance, the prince. Now of course, none of this worked, and eventually she was imprisoned for her crimes. However, on the day of her pardon, where her sister, now queen, gave her mercy, she swiped a guard's weapon and took her own life.... more>>

With her last breath filled with curses towards her family and ex-fiance, she left the world with her heart full of hatred. However, her story did not end there; the next thing that Marigold knew, she was in another world with the faint memory of making some sort of deal -- a shadow's mere whisper that in exchange for one hundred lifetimes, she could have her own happily ever after.

However, one hundred lifetimes changes a person, especially when they can go through different eras and periods, all as mere cannon fodder. She met another transmigrator in one of her lives and soon moved on from her hatred -- it wasn't worth it anymore.

But when her contract is complete and she is sent back to her very first life when all her troubles first began, Marigold can't help but change her fate, even if it is not as cruel as she first imagined it so many lifetimes ago. Eventually though, with the help of the strange second prince she gets her own happily ever after. <<less

I hated everything.

But then, I was given a "new everything".

I, along with my family, their friends, and a thousand other people, are sent to a different world.

A large majority of people decided to cling to our old world.

But others, like me, shed away the us of before, and became reborn.

We thought we'd be able to live normally, but a playful god gave us our deepest desires, in an unpredictable way.

Some could fly, some could become invisible, and some made pigeons out of thin air.

But I, who disliked myself, became everything I thought I wasn't.
