Chitra - Prologue

Episode 1

Prologue – Tutorial

A light filled her vision.
Baaang!

There was the smell of oil. The pedestrian light was still blinking green. The driver, his voice still groggy from alcohol, shouted:
"Miss! Watch out!"

The speeding car slammed into her. Her phone slipped from her hand.

No—I have to grab it. The ranking match is today… I need to press auto-hunt!

How many chargers did she have? She’d need at least two while hospitalized.

At that moment, one of her ribs pierced through her flesh.
More than pain, a burning sensation surged through her.

The world flipped.
No—her body flipped.

Fresh blood streaked across her old phone.
Her consciousness began to fade.

—You died.

She arrived in a pure white space.
Her body no longer hurt.
She blinked repeatedly.

She looked down at her hands.
Her neatly trimmed nails were no longer scratched.
Even when she touched her chest, the bone was no longer poking through the flesh.

—Do you want to live? Even if it means in a different form?

A dream?
She looked down at her hands again and glanced around.

Then she asked:
"Where’s my phone?"

—Enough already. This is the problem with modern people. Can’t do anything without a phone.

A dream, she thought.
Yes, this must be a dream.
After all, the one speaking to her was a pure white rabbit.

"Who are you?"

—I am Phovinus, God of Beauty!

Right. This really was a dream.
A rabbit claiming to be a god of beauty?
Since it’s a dream anyway, she figured she might as well have some fun.

"Do rabbits eat their own poop?"

—I am the god of beauty. My digestive abilities far surpass those of ordinary rabbits.

So… does that mean yes or no?
There was no answer.

As she was about to ask again, the god of beauty urgently interrupted:

—Enough. There’s no time, so I’ll keep it short. I’ll give you a new chance.

"What kind of chance?"

—A chance to live a second life. But in exchange, you must carry out the task I assign you.

"No thanks."

Even if it was a dream, some rabbit trying to boss her around?
She raised her middle finger.

—I’ll give you two gifts. It won’t be a bad deal for you.
The first will be a power you’re already familiar with.
The second will be a companion, created from all of my divine power.

Her body began to float.
Her vision started to blur.
Her senses faded.

Ah, am I finally waking up from the dream? she thought.

The rabbit, caught in his emotions, spoke once more:
—Do well, my apostle, my chosen one.

For a dream, this sure is overly dramatic, she thought.

"So, does that rabbit eat poop or not??"

That was her last thought before she lost consciousness.
And when she opened her eyes again—

She had become a noble lady.

Back to Before Marriage (Rebirth) - Chapter 1

On New Year’s Eve, H City Central Hospital was quiet and deserted, with very few patients. Aside from those in critical condition or whose homes were far away, almost everyone had gone home to celebrate the New Year. The cardiology ward was nearly empty as well. Mu Yuting’s room was a triple, but tonight she was the only one there. She wasn’t a critical patient, her home was in the city, and she chose not to go back for the holidays—because there was no one at home. Her parents had long passed away, and her daughter was spending the New Year with Mu Yuting’s deadbeat ex-husband. Recently, she had been admitted to the hospital due to intermittent angina and chest tightness. With medical staff on duty and a cafeteria on-site, staying in the hospital was actually convenient. **"Thank you for raising our daughter so well. Now, she’s mine."** That was the message her ex-husband had sent. When she received it, Mu Yuting was sitting beside her hospital bed, eating her New Year’s Eve...

Back to Before Marriage (Rebirth) - Chapter 3

 The morning sun did not wake Mu Yuting; instead, it was the alarm on her phone. The familiar melody of a classical-style ringtone played twice before she extended a hand from her warm blanket to silence it, then got up to wash and prepare for the day. She loved this classical tune—in her previous life, she had used it as her ringtone for over thirty years, never changing it until the day she died. Mu's Mother had already prepared a healthy breakfast: freshly ground soy milk from their home soy milk maker and three steamed buns. "Tingting, I've poured you a cup of soy milk. Take two buns to eat on your way." "Got it, Mom." Mother and daughter left home together, each carrying their breakfast, heading off to work. Outside the courtyard, Mu's Mother boarded the company's seven-seater commuter van, while Mu Yuting walked toward the bus stop. They worked at different places, and their routes were completely separate. Fortunately, the bus stop had clear s...

Novice Witch - Chapter 1: The Witch Sets Off

I bow slightly with my hands clasped in front of the house where I've spent many years. "Ouch!" I'm struck from behind with a staff. As I rub my head and turn around, I see my Master standing there, staff in hand. "Don't create an atmosphere like you're saying farewell to the dead." "Tehe~" I'm struck with the staff again. "Sigh, so have you forgotten anything? Did you bring a handkerchief?" "Are you my mother, Master? Well, I suppose you're something similar. Don't worry, I've put everything in my Storage Pouch." I pat the pouch hanging diagonally across my shoulder. "More importantly, will you be alright without me? Can you clean properly? Don't stay cooped up all the time; get some sunlight occasionally, okay?" "Ellie, before you came here, I had always managed on my own, so I'll be fine." Ellie is me. My real name is Ino Eri, a proper Japanese person. It's been about 30...
