I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

I Was Caught Up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

It all happened so abruptly. After finally grasping my situation, I found myself in an entirely different world. Looking around, I noticed others in the same predicament… Could this possibly be one of those Hero developments? Was there a tyrannical Demon Lord needing extermination, or would I be tossed into the maelstrom of war? Whatever it was, I was afraid. I never wanted to be a Hero. I don’t want to harm another…… Ignore the nonsense I was spouting; there was nothing to fret over. The Demon Lord was slain a thousand years ago, and 800 years had passed since the last war. The nobles didn’t treat us summoned like tr*sh; instead, we were kindly cared for. The Demons have been on good terms with Humans for some time now. Dangers, such as monsters, were being taken care of by the Guild and the Order of Knights. What’s more surprising is the fact that I wasn’t even a hero! Instead, I was unintentionally summoned! It also turns out that this world was a world in which the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, and the Mortal World’s Human Races, are kind neighbours. Here, everyone lives a peaceful and fulfilling life. In summary, this other world was――at peace. What’s my plan for the future? For my limited stay here, I will live this world to its fullest; going on a cultural exchange, sightseeing, then, after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years, …… I shall safely return home. However, despite my lust for a peaceful last year before returning, this planet’s heavyweights have begun amassing around me, and……

Transmigrated as a Villainess Caught in a Love-hate Web

Transmigrated as a Villainess Caught in a Love-hate Web

Hardworking corporate drone Nina Donovan transmigrates into a book one day, forcibly bound to a "Villainess System" that demands she bully the male lead, threaten the male lead, and take her arrogance, dominance, and lawlessness to the very end. Once the corrupted male lead retaliates, causing The Donovan Family's bankruptcy and her own gruesome death, she will be rewarded with ten billion and returned to her original world. Of the long list of tasks, Nina Donovan only remembered these words: Ten Billion! Excellent! Her impoverished self was finally saved. Eagerly responding to the mission, Nina Donovan carries her villainy to the very end. Her own younger brother, who has been tormented by her for years, falls in love with the female lead due to his lovesick personality. Nina Donovan immediately assigns him ten sets of exam papers. "Don't you have any self-awareness about your shitty grades? You're not allowed to love until you've finished them! Are you even worthy?!" The second male lead, her childhood friend, is madly obsessed with the female lead and treats her love like trash. Nina Donovan immediately sheds this love-struck fool persona. "We're done! We must be done!" But after cutting ties, why does he come back begging for forgiveness? She kicks him away directly, her principle being: "My love is precious. You're a scumbag, you're not worthy." The original female lead, with a full stack of good-luck buffs, never backs down in the face of power. Nina Donovan applauds wildly. "Excellent, excellent!" She immediately finds an opportunity to cut off her financial aid. The female lead ends up on the streets, only wanting to go back. "No money left, huh? That's sure to make you behave!" And the male lead, whom she mercilessly tormented and who hated her to the bone, swears to her with bloodshot eyes: "Nina Donovan, you'd better not fall from grace. If you fall into my hands, I'll make sure you die tragically." Later, The Donovan Family goes bankrupt. Having completed all the plot points, Nina Donovan is forcibly taken "offline," and true to the male lead's words, she dies miserably. But could someone please tell her why, after her death, her brother who hated her, her childhood friend who saw her as trash, and even the male lead who wished he could strangle her, are all on their knees begging for her to return?

Another Bet
Another Bet Ye Fei and Tang Rou were drinking coffee in a cafe, looking out at the bustling city. Ye Fei felt a bit irritated. He felt like he was being restricted by Tang Rou and couldn't freely display his strength. "Ye Fei, do you know? I've always believed that a person's true strength isn't just in their physical abilities, but more importantly, their mental endurance." Tang Rou softly said," I know you're confused right now, but trust me, time will help you grow, making you stronger." Ye Fei raised his head and looked at Tang Rou, feeling a surge of gratitude in his heart. He understood that Tang Rou had always been his supporter, helping him grow. "Tang Rou, I have a bet. I have a promise. I will prove my strength and make you proud of me." Ye Fei said," I hope you can be proud of me one day." Tang Rou smiled and nodded,"I believe that you, Ye Fei, will become a true expert." Ye Fei looked at Tang Rou with confidence. He knew that he would not give up easily. He would work hard to make himself stronger. "Then our bet is that you can win a game for me to prove my strength." Tang Rou said," If I win, I'll treat you two to a movie. If I lose, I'll treat you two to supper." Ye Fei and Tang Rou looked at each other with anticipation. They all knew the importance of this bet and knew that only by working hard could they win. "Okay, how about we bet five dollars a bottle of beer?" Ye Fei said," The loser will treat the other party to a movie."
