Wanderer: Fleeing a Villain’s Fate

Nigunyn
Axel never imagined he’d wake up inside a novel he helped edit. Once an overworked and underpaid editor, Axel spent years shaping Heir of the Golden Dragon into a beloved novel only for its sadistic author to destroy everything in the final chapters. When the author let the main villain win, erased cherished characters, and annihilated the world itself, Axel argued fiercely… and lost. The next morning, he opens his eyes to a cruel truth. He has been transmigrated into that very novel reborn as Rowan Wavecrest, the third son of Duke Wavecrest, a disposable minor villain fated to die early in the second arc. And Axel remembers exactly how he dies. Refusing to follow the script, Axel abandons the prestigious academy path that leads straight to his demise. Instead, he turns his back on noble expectations and sets out into the wider world as an adventurer seeking freedom, knowledge, and a way to quietly rewrite fate. But the world he once edited is far deeper than the pages he corrected. Hidden routes, forgotten characters, unstable plotlines, and a looming villain whose victory once destroyed everything begin to surface. The more Axel changes, the more the story resists and the more dangerous the world becomes. To survive, Axel must outgrow his role as a minor villain… And decide whether he will merely escape fate or defy the ending that doomed an entire world.

I Just Wanted A Soft Life, Not A Demon Husband

Death by overwork? Check. Isekai’d into a glittery kingdom called Aelthryndivoryssalindria, yes, that's the name but I call it Aelthryn, because who has time for that? Double check. All I wanted was a soft life filled with pastries, naps, and no husband. But five years into my new life as Princess Elyndravyssorathielindria Sylvarindelthys—Elyn, please, God knows why the names are so difficult to pronounce—my father demands I marry. But explain to me why all the potential suitors look like they were picked up from the fucking gutter? I kid you not. one of them literally suggested teaching me to ride a horse and guess who found out he could not ride one at all and at the end of the day cried begging for his mother...me. And that's just one. There's also the fact that I don't want to even get married. So in a panic, after scaring my suitors away, I tell my father I'm in love with Zorathys Vaelkyrion. What I didn't plan for was the fact that Zorathys is real, he’s at our annual ball, and he’s calling me his lover to settle Dad’s debts. Now I’m stuck in the Underworld, managing Hell’s paperwork, babysitting demon nobles, and dodging a giant snake with a sweet tooth. Oh, and Zor? A lazy, body-pillow-hugging tease who makes my heart race. Worse, every escape portal dumps me in his bedroom, and he’s not so bad. But when I stumble into a plot to overthrow him, my soft-life dreams might cost me everything—unless I fight for the husband I never wanted. Send help please, I just wanted a soft life and not a demon husband.. --------------------- "...you can't marry my daughter," my father said to the demon king and I nodded. "...she...she's gay. Yes," he said with a nod like that was the most reasonable explanation ever. "She's into girls." I was shocked and stared at him then back at the demon king who paused. Maybe this could work after all. I nodded too, supporting my father's words. The demon king smiled then. "What good taste you have, there's a reason why we belong to each other after all. I'm into women too." What?
