Wait, am I… a squirrel? How, when, why?!" I opened my eyes and found myself… as a squirrel. Not just any squirrel, but a divine beast known as the "Sacred Squirrel," treasured for its ability to soothe a wizard's magical power. But hold on—I was human! To return to my human form, I need to steadily accumulate magical energy.

I’m the one who was abandoned, but I think I grew up with the healthiest mindset! I went undercover as the fake’s lady-in-waiting, but when I got there, my old family seemed… off? I thought, “Not my problem!” and focused on my mission, but then… “Are you not going to live with us?” The eldest, who used to be controlling towards the fake, starts acting weird around me. “I never thought I’d feel such camaraderie and trust with someone of the opposite sex. You make me feel strangely comfortable.” The second brother, who almost went down a dark path, managed to get his life back on track—thanks to me. ‘I didn’t come here to help them film a family regret drama.’ I tried to ignore it and rush off to my next mission, but everywhere I go, I run into people whose lives are ruined. I mean, why is everyone so conveniently messed up for me to save them?!

I was told to die. From colleagues who I have been together with for 10 years. “I’m sorry, Rin. Die for the world instead.” Just like that, when it all felt like it was over. ‘…huh?’ Rin opened her eyes again. “You s*upid and even ungrateful girl! It seems obvious that I will be used by another guy, not knowing the grace that brought me to my castle!” After 30 years, I became an illegitimate child of the great family of Tuslena, who is called the apostle of God! * * * “You are the best talent. It would be a shame to leave you to rot here. Won’t you come with me?” Rin looked at the man who held out her hand to her. She is one of the four heroes that the world praises. A man who betrayed her former colleague Rin, wants to adopt her because she resembles his now-dead sword skills. Are you crazy? Is this an adoption shop for you?

Hong Heejoo, a mute sign language interpreter battling severe depression, has been trapped in a loveless arranged marriage for three years. One day, her life takes a harrowing turn when she’s taken hostage. Desperate for help, she calls her estranged husband, only to be met with indifference. “Call me when there’s a body,” he coldly replies, hanging up. Enraged, Heejoo decides to strike back. She’ll threaten her husband anonymously, no matter the cost. But there’s a twist: her target is the notorious Blue House spokesperson, a man known for his biting sarcasm. As the threats escalate, Heejoo begins to question her own sanity. Is this really the same man she married? And why does this twisted game feel so strangely exhilarating?

Q: Describe your feelings upon discovering your trusted dad isn’t just an extra. A: W-what the heck... Give me back my ‘Random Imperial Citizen #1’ life... Living in a world of constant war—365 days of chaos—a simple, extra's existence was a blessing. At least, that's what I thought. In a small village, I enjoyed a humble life with my loving, ordinary father, James Brown, 27, the epitome of an unremarkable single dad. Or so I believed. “Ladies and gentlemen, presenting my father! The quintessential symbol of extras everywhere! Brown hair, brown eyes, plain and simple!” “...” “This man screams ‘background character,’ living a quiet life chopping wood in a mountain village with his adorable daughter. Right? ...RIGHT?” The knight commander merely stared at me in silence. And then, the unthinkable happened. Behind me, my father’s worn staff began to glow with a strange, blue aura. “...Dad?” Before I could process what was happening, his unassuming brown hair and eyes shifted. Slowly but surely, they transformed into... Shimmering silver locks and piercing blue eyes—practically shouting “I’m the protagonist!” “WHAT?!” My simple, extra life shattered into a million pieces as my dad—no, this mysterious powerhouse—gripped his weapon and snarled: “Give me back my daughter, you bastard.”
