Synopsis

The person whom the world revolves around. The person who defeats all of his opponents, and ultimately gets the beautiful girl. The sole existence all villains fear. That is the protagonist. What about me? As a failed author who had only one success throughout his whole career, I had reincarnated into my late novel. "This is it" I thought, as I tightly clenched my fist. Did I just get reincarnated in my own novel? Is this where I reincarnate in a novel and become the protagonist? No. Sadly it's not that kind of novel, as I reincarnated as a mob. The world doesn't revolve around me. The girls don't come flocking towards me. The cheat items don't come to me. "Phew" I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god I'm not the protagonist" I joyfully shouted as tears streamed down my cheeks. Wait, are you curious as to why I don't want to be the protagonist? I did forget to mention the most important thing when I was describing a protagonist. That is... They are calamity magnets. I just died. If I learned something from that, it's that it really isn't a pleasant experience. If possible let me live a long stable life. Thank you, whoever reincarnated me. I would later come to regret these words... ======== Reader Disclaimer : Please read the *Read before reading novel* in synopsis. ======== Credit to _oinkchan for helping me find the previous novel cover Credit to Rengoku for his amazing edit of the new cover. ======== Discord : https://discord.gg/FK7ZQU3b9p Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/TheAuthorPOV

Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles.

Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Many Scottish crime authors are great at creating complex and flawed characters. These characters, whether they are the detectives or the criminals, have deep backstories and motives that are slowly revealed throughout the novels. For instance, in Ian Rankin's work, Rebus is a character with his own demons and a past that colors his approach to solving crimes. Also, Scottish crime novels frequently incorporate elements of Scottish culture, such as local dialects, traditions, and social issues. This gives the stories a unique flavor and makes them stand out from crime novels set in other locations.

In order to avoid a tragic death, Yu Yao decided to wear a small vest to develop wretchedly, just to be a qualified salted fish and avoid the sharpness of the male and female leads. An imperial edict descended from the sky, and Yu Yao became the new imperial consort. What palace fight? What fight for favor? Sorry, bengong only wants to be a qualified salted fish, to endure the emperor to death, and to be the imperial concubine. It was rumored that the Emperor of the Beijin Kingdom was as handsome as a god, and he was bloodthirsty. He also suffered from some unspeakable illness. Therefore, he had been in power for many years and had few children. He only had one crown prince. Yu Yao had originally thought that she and the dog Emperor were not fated to be together in this lifetime. However, she did not expect that after entering the palace, the dog Emperor would flip her card every few days. "Emperor, your body is not good. You should rest early." One night, Yu Yao was forced to the foot of the bed. "My beloved consort will know after tonight whether my body is alright or not." After a night, the emperor ate the marrow and refused to stop. Yu Tian, who was originally determined to be a salted fish to the end, had accidentally become the Emperor's favorite. He had also accidentally exposed all kinds of small identities that blinded everyone's eyes. He had also accidentally raised the Crown Prince who would unify the world in the future and directly walked to the peak of his life.
