Hi guys, this is my second novel here, and for you that have been reading my previous novel 'Is this really A Game?!' this one will be quite different. First of all, the system elements are light compared to my previous novel as the world I am writing about is one that had magic and monsters before the system arrived and is available to all. You should expect a dark story with a protagonist that acts like a villain at times and is quite calculative in his endeavors. Anyway, hope you enjoy it, and here is the synopsis.
Lyle was an orphan, he knew not of who his parents were and only had memories of his mother from a long time ago. After being discovered by a mysterious man, Lyle joined the assassin organization and rose through the ranks thanks to his hard efforts, talent, and mysterious origin.
The world suddenly changed during one of his missions, what was supposed to be a slightly more difficult mission became a hard one, and then the change occurred.
Mana ran rampant and the many monsters of the world became stronger, more of them appeared and suddenly the inhabitants of the world that had suppressed monsters for so long were forced to fight the more powerful monsters once again.
For Lyle, it was a chance, however. The system came into his world and he received an opportunity to become more powerful.

Elreth is a Princess in the world of Anima—where humans can shift into the form of their animal ancestors. As the Lion King's daughter, Elreth breaks a thousand-year tradition when she challenges her father for dominance—and wins. But as the first known dominant Alpha Female, she faces a lonely, and dangerous Rule.
Aaryn, Elreth’s best friend, has always secretly loved her beauty, and her strength. But as a member of the wolf-tribe, and unable to shape-shift, he is not viewed as the right Mate for Anima's first Dominant Queen.
When events force Aaryn to admit his feelings, for the first time, Elreth's eyes are opened to Aaryn not just as a friend, but as a male--and her True Mate. But Aaryn also has secrets. Secrets spanning decades, that open Elreth's eyes to the threats against her people, and threaten to tear down the royal family, and the Anima as a whole.
Can love really conquer all? Can Elreth convince a prejudiced people to accept Aaryn as her mate before these secrets threaten not just her rule, but her life?

Then, as he stared at her, his scent changed. Which only confused her more, until something flashed behind his eyes. Something she’d only ever seen in her father’s face when he was staring at her mother.
Desperation. Joy. Hunger.
But that was crazy, why would—?
And suddenly, like a cub tumbling down a grassy hill to land on its feet, everything fell into place.
Everything.
Her mouth dropped open. She blinked. And blinked again. And for the first time in a very long time, she looked at him.
Not at her confidante.
Not at her closest ally.
Not at the friend who’d been present for every major milestone in her life.
She looked at Aaryn. The male. The wolf.
She stared at his silver-white hair, that scattered over his ice-blue eyes, fixed on her, and created a barrier between them. She looked at the strength in his jaw, shadowed because of the late hour. She let her gaze drift down the cords of his neck, and his broad shoulders and the wide, smooth expanse of his chest that rose and fell rapidly. And she let herself remember the ladders of muscle that painted his torso—hidden by the white shirt he wore. She swallowed. She’d seen every inch of him at some point.
Well, almost.
Her mouth went dry.

Ilyin, who could dream predictive dreams, dreamt of spending her first night with the Duke of Biflten.
‘Am I going to marry the Duke of Biflten?’
The notorious duke was known to stiffen one’s body when one’s eye meets his. Besides, he’s a madman whose sword is faster than words.
“You can leave this mansion whenever you want.”
In the dark night, the Duke of Biflten whispered. Contrary to rumors, he was kind. But he never showed his face. So then Ilyin, after spending ten nights with him, asked.
“Does one really become stiff when looking into your eyes?”
“No.”
“Then can you show me your face?”
“Of course.”
It was easier than she had thought. But the faceless husband was silent for a moment. Then, he whispered in a sweet, low voice, like the devil.
“But you have to make a promise.”
“What is it?”
“If you look at me, you’ll never be able to leave this castle again, Ilyin.”
‘I don’t want to leave you either.’
“So if you want to run, run now.”
Despite his voice having no emotions, there was a strong hint of obsession.

Chen Yan’s 100th blind date went a little off tangent.
He arrested his blind date.
…
His blind date said, “Since we are on a blind date, let us be frank with each other.”
She continued, “Your salary is too low and your house is small. To be honest, if it wasn’t for your good looks, our date would probably have ended here.”
Clearly, she was not very satisfied with Chen Yan’s condition.
She suggested, “Let’s do this. You put your house under my name and ask your family to get me another car worth half a million. Then, we can consider working this relationship out.”
Chen Yan was a little hesitant and shocked. This girl was even more direct and materialistic than he had imagined.
She said, “You don’t have to spend a cent to put your house under my name. As for the car…to be honest, that amount is only worth a month of my salary.”
She chided, “You are hesitant even when asked to do such simple things. You are such a miser.”
She concluded, “Humph. I have no other business with you. I shall take my leave now.”
Chen Yan’s blind date put on an arrogant expression. She had announced the final outcome of this blind date.
However, Chen Yan felt that it might be a little too rushed to end his 100th blind date just like that.
He said, “Missy, it is debatable whether I am a miser. However, you can’t leave now even if you want to.”
She retorted, “Why? As a police officer, do you plan on hounding me? Or do you want me to settle the bill? Ha! Waiter, bring me the bill!”
Chen Yan could spot the contempt from his date’s arrogant gaze.
Hounding her? Getting her to settle the bill?
“You don’t have to settle the bill,” said Chen Yan expressionlessly as he took out a pair of silver handcuffs.
He continued, “Please stand up and put your arms around your head. You are under arrest.”

“What are you doing here?” Lucy asked in alarm when she walked into her boss' office and saw Tom standing by the window,
“Who let you in here? Come with me, you should leave now before he comes in and sees you here. He can be really mean.” Lucy said reaching out to grab his hand, but he made no move to reach for her hand, and just kept staring at her with a slightly amused expression.
“I came to fulfill your fantasy.” Tom said looking into her eyes with an unreadable expression.
“Fantasy? What fantasy?” She asked with a frown as she hurried to the door to shut it so her boss wouldn't walk in on them.
“You've forgotten? You said you would love to have sex with me on your boss' table. I want to make it happen.” Tom said making her heart skip a beat.
“ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?” She half yelled as she took his hands and tried to drag him to the door, “I could lose my job if my boss finds you in here.” She snapped at him.
“Nevermind about that. Tell me the thought of this doesn't turn you on? I'm here, you're here, and the table is right here. I could have you on your back in a second and you'd be crying out my name...” Before Tom could finish, the office door was pushed open.
“Sup Tom? Can I talk to you for a sec?” Harry asked as he walked in, his eyes on the documents in his hand. He stopped when he raised his head and realized Lucy was in the office. He almost kicked himself when he saw the frown on Lucy's face, “Shit!” Harry muttered, and gave Tom an apologetic glance when he realized he had just screwed up.
“I thought you were going out?” he asked her with an awkward smile.
“Tom? You know him? I mean... other than him being my driver?” She asked both men, looking from one to the other when she noticed Harry didn't look surprised to see Tom in the office.
What was going on here? What was she missing? Lucy asked herself as her gaze shifted from Harry to Tom who was glaring at Harry. There was no way Tom could be her boss, right? All the pieces of the puzzle was beginning to fit now. It was all beginning to make sense now, she thought as she glanced at Tom one more time before walking out of the office.

“Steward Luo, the CEO is not in a good mood. Go and play with him.”
“Steward Luo, the CEO doesn’t sleep well, go accompany him … ”
Luo Qingyun could not bear it any longer, “I am just a steward, not a companion!” The assistant had an innocent look, “The CEO said that if Steward Luo is unwilling, then let you see a little bit more powerful. Do you want to test the CEO’s power?”

In the novel, the wealthy CEO male lead has a villainous stepmother. She put up a front of being nice and tender to him, when in fact she was bullying the male lead with her son. After she had successfully driven the male lead and his father apart, her ambition continued to grow as she attempted to take away the inheritance from the male lead. In the second half of the book, the truth came out — that the father had no feelings for her whatsoever but was merely using the two of them to hone his son’s character. In the end, both the stepmom and her son were sent to jail by the male lead after he took over the family business.
Yan Shuyu transmigrated and became the well-hated villainous stepmother, but she had transmigrated to the time before everything happened, and the male lead was still a foolish child. Only a fool would want to become the stepmother of a foolish child. Yan Shuyu took a longing look at her “assigned husband”, who was pretty much like the Sleeping Beauty, before she quickly packed up and made a run for it.
After that, Yan Shuyu checked out her $250 remaining on her card. She turned to look at her son, who was clinging onto her leg and asking for milk. She wanted to look up at the sky and howl. Is it too late to go back to become the male lead’s whetstone?

....
“The son of god Gula has returned.”
I was lost in the world of gambling.
I turned my back on my family and even betrayed my lover.
I wasted every day of my life.
It was a life of trash.
The reality told me thus:
That I would amount to nothing no matter what I did.
In order to change my pathetic life, I chose fantasy, instead.
Even then, it was the same story.
I wondered if salvation would come at the end of the long road.
But, I was forced to kneel down in defeat in front of a powerful entity.
The tower I built up with my own hands crumbled into nothingness.
Just for once, I dearly wished to know the truth about myself.
– Come closer, my child...
I will not hold back this time.
The ducal house to which the second male lead belonged to is a military family.
She thought she should repay them for giving her free food and a place to sleep.
She told the second male lead about this and that. All so that he could win the heart of the female lead later.
At this rate, he would become a good man and win her love in the future. (Proud)

“And most importantly.”
Rieta looked around and whispered in Noel’s ear.
“Only be polite and friendly to your most special person.”
Only tell her that she is pretty and that you love her.
Rieta thought he must have understood, right? When she asked, Noel grinned with confidence.
Oh, I’ve taught you everything.
From the age of nine until now before the coming-of-age ceremony…It was very hard to teach her childhood friend who had a terrible bad temper.
But now, Noel wouldn’t be called the unlucky second lead anymore. Maybe he would really push the male lead away and take the female lead to his side.
Rieta grinned as she thought of a different future from the original.
Then Noel swept up her hair down and said,
“You’re pretty, Rieta Liz.”
“?”
“…You asked me to say you were pretty right?”
She, when did she?! You’re not supposed to say that to your friend!
