Chapter 1 “Assistant Manager Han, is this really this month’s order data? Are you out of your mind?” Manager Kim’s scream, loud enough to hurt the ears, shook the ceiling of the office. Here we go again. She was in her third year on the sales support team at a distribution company. Every day was the same. “I’m sorry.

Prologue “Just my luck.” That was the first thought Se-hee had when she opened her eyes in an unfamiliar place. She had traveled to another dimension, only to land in a forest where the worst monsters in the empire lived. “Ha…….” There were countless wolf monsters drooling right in front of her, and the only thing in Se-hee’s hands was a plastic bag—the proof that she had stopped by a convenience store. “No, the bag is still here, so where did everything…

Chapter 10 “…” At those words, Owen fell silent for a moment. He could more or less imagine what had happened. While he was busy with the endless work and the Emperor’s orders to go to war, the butler must have insisted that, as a count, he needed to maintain the dignity of the castle and improve its appearance.

Philia replied in a hushed voice, as though the butler might still be somewhere nearby. “The butler… He didn’t officially apply and get hired for the position.

Chapter 8 Pesha was walking briskly when she spotted a maid quietly mopping the seemingly endless hallway with a bucket and a mop. She spoke to her. “Good work. I have something to order the butler to do, so could you call him to my room?” “Yes, Your Ladyship.” While the maid went to fetch the butler, Pesha returned to her room and, instead of dwelling on how overwhelming everything was, began writing down the tasks she needed to handle in order of priority.

Chapter 11 “B-But the age difference between you two…!” “They say aging stops because he’s a Sword Master. My husband is quite capable.” With my incredible acting, as if two souls were living inside one body, not only Hippolyte but also the children who had come to watch were soon clasping their hands together and focusing on me. “How in the world did this happen?! Wh-Why are you standing beside the Duke?!” “It’s been a long time, Father. You never imagined that the…-

The children, each dressed in luxurious clothes, stared at the Go board with faces full of tension. After taking deep breaths for a long time, the boy finally flicked his finger with all his strength. Tak! With a crisp sound, the white stone raced across the smooth surface.

Chapter 14 No matter how many times you shouted at people to evacuate, there were always those who would not listen. The man running from an Orc was one of them. “Argh!” Crash-!
