    Seven Names for a Sleeping Heir

    5 ch · Fantasy

    In the southern empire, a noble house survives only when its dying head whispers the family's True Name to a single witness. If the chosen heir sleeps before hearing it, the name is lost and the house is dissolved. Sirin of the Hollow Spring, the last unburned Name-Witch of the ice frontier, is summoned under imperial protection to keep Lord Alderic's exhausted heir awake while the lord delays his choice. Sirin has seven wakefulness syllables, each worth one hour and impossible to reuse on the same person. She can hear the True Name humming in noble throats, but she cannot speak or write it without burning her tongue to ash. On arrival, she discovers the impossible: House Hollow Bell's True Name is not humming in the dying lord, but in Lucien, the spare son. As Casimir, the official heir, survives revolts, impossible tests, and his father's grief, he begins courting Sirin as a bargain and slowly becomes the one person who refuses to force her truth from her. With every syllable spent, Sirin must choose whether to preserve her monastery, save one brother, doom the other, or expose a law of inheritance that may already be broken.

    She Remembered the Wrong Life

    6 ch · Action

    Yun Sora wakes at seventeen with twenty years of misery lodged in her chest: a loveless arranged marriage, a silent husband, an estate where no one noticed her illness until it killed her. Like any competent regressor, she uses that knowledge to break the engagement and build a life of her own. By twenty, she is free, successful, and certain she escaped her tragedy. But when the man she remembers as cold keeps appearing with unsettling sincerity, and old witnesses contradict the story she has trusted, Sora faces a harder truth: her memories are real, but they may not be reliable. The life she fled was shaped not only by neglect, but by depression, pride, silence, and conclusions she made when she was too wounded to see clearly. Now she must choose again—not whether to return to the past, but whether she can live without treating pain as proof.

    The Save Point Has Wheels

    6 ch · Action

    Erine, a burnt-out corporate worker, died at her desk one save-screen short of the secret true ending of the otome game 'Mirai-mirai'. She wakes up as a sentient AI food truck — the game's joke NPC. To make matters worse, the villainess Helena is already exiled, months ahead of schedule. Someone else is playing, and they have the same cheat sheet. Erine must feed the starving, bank fuel to maintain her human avatar, and race a rival reincarnator rewriting the story in real time — while the villainess she's trying to save slowly realizes her 'friend' knows things no stranger should.

    The Duelist's Confession

    5 ch · Action

    At Saint-Vermeil Academy, every cadet wears a Steel Oath tattoo: lie or touch unlawfully, and the mark blackens into rot where everyone can see. Esme Calvier, a precise but overlooked second-year duelist, survives by night as V. Marrante, the anonymous ghostwriter behind the empire's most elegant dueling memoirs. When she draws Lucien Aubray in the semi-final bracket—the brilliant heir whose private memoir she wrote last winter—he begins visiting the records-balcony after midnight, quoting lines he should never know and forcing her to answer under the Oath. Esme cannot withdraw, cannot lie, and cannot let anyone audit the Marrante manuscripts locked inside the headmaster's office. Lucien's blackmail is not meant to make her lose. It is meant to make her win in public, so the empire will have to ask who she really is.
