I’m not the one chasing ghosts.”His eyes darkened, his gaze dropping to my lips. “He’s not the only one haunted by you.”I froze.I should have walked away.Instead, I whispered, “Then why do you look at me like you want to hate me and kiss me at the same time?”He didn’t answer.But his silence spoke louder than any lie.

A Young woman dies on her trip to Japan in the most anticlimactic way possible, buried by a pile of manga, light novels, and even lewd doujin after an earthquake. In her last moments, all the wishes she has suddenly become reality and materialize in all sorts of Special Abilities before she finds herself reincarnated into a corpse!

Wait... Why is the corpse not moving? No matter how much she tries, it doesn't move, she's not even a zombie or something!

Wait... Why is she stuck with the unmoving corpse? The corpse is actually not part of her anymore!

Wait... Why is she not a physical being? Her hands are translucent, and so is her entire “new” body!

“Ah... I am a ghost?!”

Accompany Maria as she survives as a ghost in a brand new and unwelcoming world, raises her own skeleton as her friend, and seeks the truth behind her second life’s death and how exactly she turned into a ghost.

Not only will she have Phantasmal Powers and Dark Magic, but even the ability to raise her own Undead Army! Will anything be able to stand before her path for revenge?

Cecily was a scrawny girl with no friends. However, like all other girls, she yearned for true love. She always had a crush on Robert, Alpha’s son in their Pack. However, on her eighteenth birthday, she found out that Robert was her Mate!

Before she could hug him in excitement, Robert had already flung her hand away like a piece of trash. “You will not become my Mate. Pretend that nothing happened today. Leave and watch your mouth. Do not say anything that you should not say!”

Robert publicly ogled at the sexy, beautiful blonde Alison at their high school graduation. The graduation trip changed Cecily, making her stronger, more confident, more vibrant, and more beautiful and sexy. Furthermore, Robert, who met her on his college campus again, began to pursue her. “You should be my Luna. We will live together from now on. We will have lots of kids. They will be healthy and smart.” Robert’s eyes were filled with lust. Robert’s pestering made Cecily feel disgusted and nauseated!

As Cecily could not protect herself from Robert due to the difference in strength, Michael appeared. “Your actions make you unworthy as an Alpha.” Michael looked at Robert with disdain.

During Robert’s inauguration as Alpha, Cecily could no longer tolerate his pestering. “I, Cecily Levin, reject Robert Paslo as my mate.” When Robert was furious and in pain, wanting to hurt Cecily, Michael appeared again! “Cecily was the Mate arranged by the Moon Goddess for me.” Michael looked at Cecily gently. “Whoever dares to touch her is disrespecting the royal family.”
