Is the fate of villainess bound to the novel? Can the villainess not follow the fate of her? Why must the villainess need to know about the female lead or the male lead? This is what I have read about the novel where a person transmigrated or reincarnated became villainess of the novel, they were so obsessed about the story of the novel not the story of their own life. If to prevent death, just doing something opposite of the novel, because my fate is not bound to the novel but bound to me. I will do the opposite of the novel, and not give any care about the events of the novel, what will go wrong about that? What will go wrong with doing what you want to be?

When hear the word maid, what I know is a woman who dresses in black and white attire. Yet all of that was different when my family sent me to one of the royal family households. They didn't send me a dress like a maid I know. The job isn't like the maid I know where they work around the household; cleaning the room, or accommodating the family with what they need, however, I am stuck in the basement. Where my job isn't maid at all like in the book I read, what I was doing was remedying a herb or making a jam all day. Until I realised when I was in the servant quarter, there was a hierarchy among the maids which I started at the lowest one as Still Room Maid, and for the highest one is the Housekeeper.

“does it ever drive you crazy,

just how fast the night changes?”

All poor Ori desperately wanted was to be a Knight under the Empire and provide for her struggling family. But, who would have thought that getting entangled with the enigmatic Duke's demands would make her a contracted Duchess instead?

Will Ori end up being a pawn in the Duke's game or will she play with his heart instead?

Or, in which, a calm and vengeful duke joins hands with a naive yet stubborn pesant girl to act as his secret duchess and intrigue the evil empress out of her lair and make her go mad. Featuring: misadventures, agressive pinning, and a consistently cute way of addressing eachother.

Part 8 of the "Sign of the Timez" Series.Now I was sent to Nazi Germany where I had to live with the most evil person in History. Could I turn a blind eye to all the evil or try to change Hitler? I was also in the middle of a war. How would I ever survive this era?

The women watched in horror as civilians, including children ran blindly into the naked streets. Naval shells exploded meters from the holding cells killing several people instantly.

Bloodcurdling screams filled the air as prisoners cowered in terror praying for mercy from above. Amelia gripped tightly onto her co-pilot's hand whispering apologies for failing him so badly.

Captain: (excitement growing)Aye, fire the X-Tron electromagnetic pulse gun! We need to kill that monster.

[The rail gun fires, sending a powerful, blue, electromagnetic pulse towards the Sea Monster, momentarily stunning it.]

As the sea monster recoiled from the electromagnetic pulse, the crew of the Starlight saw a faint, glimmer of hope. Captain Williams seized the desperate opportunity, barking out orders to his crew.

Our government spies on its own citizens like they all are a bunch of enraged partisans. Spy Cameras hidden on every street, in offices, bathrooms, every other corner.

Is there a vast citizen conspiracy that I'm missing? More and more rights granted under the Constitution being stripped away, under the pretense of National Security.

Why?
