    Summary

    "You want me to hurt you because nobody else will, and it'll fulfill two of your needs at once," Akechi cuts him off, matter-of-fact. "Two contradictory needs."

    Akira swallows thickly. He simply nods.

    The boy who killed him—in his own mind, in a parallel universe, in a world Yaldabaoth wrung red and drowned in his ichor—takes a step back. He says, "I don't think I will ever understand you, Akira," in a low voice, and then he plunges his serrated blade into Akira's thigh.

    (Akira is starved for touch, touch of any kind. Some forms of human contact are easier to ask for than others.)

    Summary

    “The quickest route to anywhere is a straight line,” Akechi says. “He’s a target, and I refuse to give up that easily. I’m doing this.”

    Morgana turns his skeptical gaze on him. “Are you sure? You weren’t feeling so great earlier...”

    Akechi watches their target for a moment longer, and the illusion of his soft yukata and softer hair dispels under his glass shard of a smile. There isn’t a trace of pain on his face anymore—only simmering, dark excitement. “As I said. I don’t like to lose.”

    And neither does Ren. Yeah, they’re head to toe in yukata and sandals, and yeah, everyone is right: this is so, so stupid. Ren is so stupid. But he’s gonna climb this roof and catch that goddamn cop.

    He meets Akechi’s gaze beat for beat. “Let’s do it.”

    Who says you have to see Morgana speak in the Metaverse before you can hear him in the real world? Not the few hundred officers who arrested Ren in Sae’s Palace two years ago, that’s for sure.

    Summary

    “So I’m to be bait,” Akechi says flatly. “You’re serving me up.”

    Ren can feel the grin on his face, and he can’t stop it. “I gotta open the store tomorrow, I only serve coffee.”

    “Absolutely idiotic. Why would I agree to that?"

    Ren shrugs one shoulder and leans back against the movie theater wall, smiling. He’s feeling light on his feet right now. It’s been a bad day, but the end is nice. “Call it penance.”

    “Penance for what,” Akechi says.

    His smile stays where it is as he glances away for a moment, then meets Akechi’s eyes again. “Being yourself.”

    Summer vacation back in Tokyo was supposed to be two things: an exciting break from the mundanity of home, and a chance to see people he's missed so much it hurts. If he survives, Ren has good news for himself on both.

    Summary

    "I'm Kim Dokja, the new assistant."

    "I was told you'd be a fresh new face for the company. I suppose they meant this kind of fresh."

    Ah.

    How could he forget? The sole reason as to why the novel had such mixed reception in the first place was contained within all 1.84 metres of the devil standing before him. President Yoo.

    Kim Dokja picks up Love on the Clock, the newest romance venture from award-winning author, Han Sooyoung. He promptly dies in a freak accident, and wakes up in said novel — not as the female lead, but as the tired assistant of the cruel male lead.

    Summary

    Being an avid reader of all kinds of web novels, Kim Dokja is no stranger to transmigration types, and thus takes surprisingly well the fact that he’s dead and reincarnated into another world.

    What he didn’t expect, however, is that this is a story he hasn’t read. All he’d heard about it was that the second male lead, Prince Dokja of the Charon Kingdom - the very same one he’s reincarnated to - will eventually die by the hand of the male lead, Imperial Prince Joonghyuk von Kaizenix. To make it worse, that male lead has been glaring daggers at Dokja ever since he came here, sealing his fate even more.

    But that’s alright - Dokja is determined to live a good life from now on, regardless of whatever the bastard protagonist thinks!
