Chapter 1 - I'm Sorrounded By The Devil
Bella sat on the devil's throne and waited quietly for the novel to end.
"Is it a holy thing
Bella had practiced her lines several times, but these lines, more suited for middle schoolers, didn't feel right in her mouth
'Eh, let's skip the exclamation. It's too awkward
"It's a holy thing
While Bella was practicing her lines with her neck straightened, an injured devil rushed into the throne roo
"They've arrived at the entrance to the devil's castle
"I volunteer to go
"I'll go and cut it in pieces
The general beside Bella rushed to volunteer and said, "I will go
"Wait," Bella said
Since she had possessed this character, Bella had made a fair share of mistakes. But right now, making mistakes wasn't an option for her. This was her only and last rol
"Let's have Zhanbar and Talam go to the first section of the entrance to Mawangseong, and Roxan and Beelzebub go in the second section
A moment late
In District 3, the door to the throne room opened violently. At last, the main character of the novel, Kiel Herian Elysia, appeare
Although he stood in the dark castle of the devil, where no light filtered in, he still shine
Bella looked at the main character of the novel for a moment, stupefied
"I found you
Bella missed her lin
She should've said, "That's a shame, little man
Bella rushed to recite her next line. "I'll deal with it myself
She made eye-contact with Kiel's amber eye
Kiel glared at Bella like an eagl
"I'll take your heart," he sai
The scene Bella had longed for was finally unfolding before her eye
In the love story between Kiel and Rosanna, this scene was so short you could hardly call it part of the stor
This was where Bella was supposed to die in the hands of her favorite male lead
It all began when she first possessed Bella's body

After Hong-yeon died, she enjoyed her free time while waiting for her reincarnation. By now, civilization had developed, and the afterlife became digitize
There was no time to be bored, especially when the Angel of Death gave her a smartphone to use while waiting for reincarnatio
What Hong-yeon desperately missed right now was a good web novel
While Hong-yeon was alive, she had been so preoccupied with her life that she never had time to enjoy herself and read some books
After her death, Bella experienced a period of denial, but before long, she found herself spending more than 80% of her time reading web novel
She wasn't even lonely. After all, she had some friends to keep her compan
[Oh, this artist's work is so lovely. Why isn't it more popular
[Looks like it's only popular with dead people
[This shouldn't happen year-round
After she died, Bella hadn't been allowed to meet someone else waiting for their reincarnation. However, those who had similar tastes could become online friends and communicate over tex
With her thumbs, Hong-yeon hurriedly tapped away at her keyboar
"If I reincarnate, I'll collect all of this artist's works," she said to the chatgrou
There were many similar underrated works. But because they were dead, the views on the chapter never went u
Sadly, the work only seemed to be popular amongst Bella's dead friend
[When will our reincarnation take place? Judging by how many web novels we've read, it's been at least ten years!
"I hope we reincarnate soon." Bella spammed an assortment of hearts, books, and crying emoticon
[Oh, come to think of it, I've heard a lot about a novel jumping system these days
When Hong-yeon read the message, she jumped up from her sea
[Is it like a replacement for reincarnation
[I've heard that it's similar to reincarnation. But the system hasn't been finished yet, so only a few people have been chosen to test it
"Oh, I wish I could try it, too." Hong-yeon spammed crying emojis to emphasize her desir
[Do you know which novels you get to transmigrate into? What if you enter an apocalyptic novel? LO
[Maybe you possess a novel you recently read? I recently read a thriller book
"I'm all for it. I hope they choose me to test the system
A smile flitted across Bella's lip
[Hong-yeon, what if you become the villain of the novel
"I'll twist the plotline
[Kya! You better be a good actor! I want to know how much you can change the original plot. It sounds so fun
Hong-yeon laughed so hard that she was afraid her mouth would become glued ope
After waiting for a long time, the Angel of Death appeared before Hong-yeo
"Kim Hong-yeon, it's been a long time," he said. "I've created a new system. It's trendy, and I recommend it to you
"No way…" Hong-yeon gaspe
"You can live your life in a web novel while waiting for your reincarnation
Hong-yeon's eyes sparkled. It was finally here! She could finally enter a nove
"Right now, the queue for reincarnation is nearly 800 years. People who wait a long time are bound to go crazy, so if possible…
"I'll do it
There was nothing to worry abou
"I want to enter the novel . Can I be the mistress
"Oh, that's not how it works. Kim Hong-yeon, you'll enter a novel you've recently read
How unfortunat
"Then, will you still do it?" the Angel of Death aske
"Yes
Hong-yeon's mobile phone vibrate
"Hold onto your phone. You will be able to use it in the novel. It will answer some of your questions
As it turned out, Hong-yeon would enter a story about Prince Kiel and the young Countess Rosann
It was a story about love that overcame the status boundarie
In particular, Hong-yeon's favorite character was the male lead, Kiel, who seemed to have everything going for hi
Her second favorite was the princess named Shria, a wicked woma
"If I possess the heroine, Rosanna, I'd love to have a romance with Kiel," Hong-yeon thought to hersel
In the novel, Hong-yeon wanted to enjoy all the luxuries she could get her hands on for as long as possibl
Hong-yeon was confident she'd do well, no matter which character she possesse
* *
"Princess, did you wake up
The lovely title made a sweet smile form at the corners of Hong-yeon's mout
In her head, she imagined gorgeous dresses, accessories, amazing food, and a victorian-era roo
Hong-yeon opened her eye
"Kyaaaaa
"Why, Princess
A b-b-bea
As soon as Hong-yeon opened her eyes, she was met with a bea
And the bear was wearing an apron! It was also a really big bea
'Don't tell me I'm the princess of Bear Kingdom
"Ahh, what's this? Ahh
The bed Hong-yeon woke up in was made from flesh-covered leather. It was as if she was in the house of a nasty murdere
'I think I'll throw up
Hong-yeon instinctively looked toward a mirror: red eyes with pitch-black hair. She looked pretty, but Hong-yeon wouldn't have minded if she was ugl
'I'm a person… I'm a person
Hong-yeon was relieved to not be a bear and took her cell phone out of her pocke
The cell phone contained the entirety of the novel
Soon after, a name popped into Hong-yeon's hea
'Bellatrix
Every novel had important characters as well as insignificant ones. In a hurry to find out who she was, Hong-yeon searched for her name, 'Bellatrix'. There were nearly zero result
With trembling hands, Hong-yeon found where she was located in the novel. She played a rather pitiful part, and her name was only mentioned four time
She was the Demon King's daughter, one of the final villains that Kiel, the emperor, had to kil
In the entire novel, she only had a mere three line
"That's a shame, little man
"I'll deal with it myself
"Ugh- Is it a holy thing
So much for her life as a brilliant and beautiful nobl
"No! Even the Demon King's daughter can live well
In the novel, the demonic world frequently invaded and harassed those in the human world. Bella could stop that from happenin
'Even a devil can be good
Bella had to live someho
The Demon King could live for 5,000 years, so although Bella's previous life was short, she'd make sure her current one lasted nice and lon
She looked forward to her future, hoping that she'd be able to have lots of fu
But Bella's intuition told her that the future she wanted might not be the future she go
If her chat group, full of people waiting for their reincarnation, saw this, they'd be sure to pass ou
"Princess, in the future, I'll prepare raw intestines right away without pickling the food," said the cook, who stood beside the bea
"The cook is a mantis
Bella couldn't believe it was cooking with the arm of an insec
As Bella sighed out loud, the bear maid, Pur, grabbed the mantis's nec
"I'll kill this guy and find a new cook
Tears poured out of one of the mantis's orifice, but Bella couldn't tell where his eyes wer
"Can warts be cooked? In the human world, mice are also cooked
That's not a cartoo
"I'll find the rat chef," Pur said confidently, thumping his big ches
Bella couldn't figure out how the hell they were going to find a rat che
'No. Let's think positively
"No. Find a human chef," Bella said as if she were talking to a small anima
"Okay! I'll kidnap him
Bella covered her face with both of her hands to stifle her incredulit
'Please… these crazy guys

Bella doubted that the Demon World would transform into a glittery fantasy world full of fairies just because she wanted it t
'Let's use power to change it
Bella was the highest authority here, with the exception of the Demon King, who was hibernating in preparation for the Demon King's successio
She hastily gathered all the members of the demon world and headed to the throne roo
As expected, the Devil's Castle, which Bella saw on the way to the throne room, was dark, wet, and gloom
The Demon King's throne was situated in the center of the throne room, but I didn't want to sit down because it was all made of human skeleton
"Make the castle a little brighter
"Yes
"Gather the items used by nobles
Even a gloomy castle would be luxurious if Bella decorated it with expensive furnitur
"Yes! I'll steal everything
Bella took a deep breath and exhaled, "No, don't steal it. You have to buy it
I'm not coming home, but I have to buy it.
"What do you mean by 'buy'
"Use money to get it
Everyone began to murmu
"The humans have money
"Then, you can kill a human and take their money
"What do you mean by 'buy'."
"Use money to get it."
Everyone began to murmur.
"The humans have money!"
"Then, you can kill a human and take their money!"
