Because he had the heritage of the ancient Demonic Emperor, Demonic Emperor Zhuo Yifan met the misfortune of being betrayed and killed by his trusted disciple. After being reborn, his cultivation went back to zero and he was trapped by a heart demon, given no choice but to become the housekeeper of the Luo Family's lone eldest miss. From being a Magic Emperor to being an insignificant housekeeper, how would he get along with his "heart demon eldest miss" and what power would he gain in order to lead himself and the declining family to rise back to the peak of the continent! [Side note: 魔 can mean "magic" and "demon", while 管家 can mean "butler" and "housekeeper". I'm not sure as to why the previous translator decided to use "Magic" when it's a cultivation world, but I'll just follow. (And Zhou Fan never does the work of a housekeeper throughout the manhua.)]

One day, the fairy of books appeared and told Letty that she was a dying extra character. “Father-in-law!” “?” “Father-in-law, please give me your son!!” Letty came to marry in place of the female lead to survive, but the in-laws are unbearable! “I don’t want to work. I’ll take a day off today.” “If you take today off, it’ll be your 194th day off, Your Grace. It’s already mid-June.” Her father-in-law, who’s supposed to be the head of the family, is incredibly lazy and is about to ruin the family, Crash! Bang! “Why are you breaking things again, husband?” “I don’t know. I just feel like breaking something every time I see your face.” The successor, her husband, is the head of the division...! ‘Ugh, I just wanted to heal him and escape, but this isn’t going to work.’ Sigh. There’s no helping it. Until the female lead shows up, should I try helping out this hopeless family a bit? “Father-in-law, at this rate, you’ll ruin the family!! I’m so embarrassed, I could die!!!” And so, Letty managed to get the lazy father-in-law to start thinking like a hardworking ant, “Hubby, your heart is racing again? Don’t break things and hold Letty’s hand.” Crash! Bang! “Ahhh~ The young master is destroying the mansion again!” The attempt to reform her husband failed.
I died from overwork, living as a s*ave to a small company. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself reincarnated as an extra in a dark confinement novel. And somehow, I ended up being kidnapped instead of the female lead! But something feels off. I thought I’d be killed after being kidnapped, but instead, they’re just keeping me locked up? They’re confining… a homebody like me? They never let me step outside, but everything I need is provided for me, and no one complains even if I laze around all day. And on top of that… “If you liked that pastry chef’s dessert, I’ll hire him for you.” Do kidnappers usually treat their captives this well? …Isn’t this amazing? — “Princess…” “Yes?” “Don’t you have any thoughts of going outside?” No, of course not. I plan to never step outside for the rest of my life.
‘Agnes’ was a girl who saved the prince’s life by coincidence. Thanks to his kindness, she received the opportunity to serve as a chambermaid in the palace. Though initially staying with him as an old friend, An naturally fell in love with him. However, as time passed and he become emperor, she knew her unrequited love had to come to an end… “Do you like men much?” “…You’re going too far.” An’s face darkened. She stared at the man who’s eyes burned with an intense fire. His expression was grim and unrelenting. “It’s true, is it not? Jumping from one man to another, you’re insane…” “What’s wrong with me meeting with potential partners? I’m marriageable age, after all.” An bit her lip, while Lennox slowly parted his. “…What’s the problem?” “What do you mean?” Hearing her question, Lennox’s eyelashes trembled slightly. His claw-like hands clamped down on her, pressing her against the wall. An let out a cry and closed her eyes. But fortunately, his hand cradled the back of her head, shielding her from the wall. Trembling, she glared at him. “You said you didn’t like me.” “I-I don’t know what you’re talking about.” An blinked in confusion. It was clear he was referring to that particular incident. This man dug into her unwanted memories, her breath hitching as red crept upon her face. Lennox’s face twisted at the sight of her reaction. “You clearly said you hated me.” “Your Majesty.” “Did you really find me that unbearable?”
\"Oh my, from childhood friends to an engaged couple! Isn’t that so romantic?\" \"Yeah. No, it’s not.\" \"You two were always together back in the academy, right?\" \"Ah, that’s true.\" It all began during our academy days. I was exhausted from the constant stream of marriage proposals. ‘What about me?’ ‘What?’ ‘As your marriage partner.’ And so, I ended up signing a contract engagement with my friend, Aivert! Thus, we began acting like a couple who couldn’t live without each other. Of course, I can swear that he’s just a friend. But as time passed, and when the end of the contract was approaching… \"Soon, I\'ll be free!\" I thought the embarrassing couple act would soon be over! But… —Clank. An unexpected event occurred. I stared, bewildered, at the handcuffs now on both my wrist and Aivert’s. What kind of situation is this? *** I thought we’d just be stuck together, and as long as we did our part, everything would be fine. After all, acting as a couple would get easier, right? I kept thinking positively about it, but… Holding the key to the handcuffs, Aivert Royden subtly tilted his head. “If I break this, would you be disappointed?” Rodella’s eyes went wide. The shy and cautious childhood friend from her memories was gone, replaced by a stranger, yet someone familiar. He wore a look that stirred strange feelings in her. \"You said it yourself. A madman should be tied up.\" Clank. He shook his bound wrist. \"If I take this off…\" If I drift away from you, if I let this opportunity slip away… \"I think I might go crazy. What should I do?\"
