Clara Casewell, Attorney to the Villainess

cocopi

S87/100
Clara Casewell is an ambitious associate at an international corporate law firm with a secret passion for villainess stories — the trashier the better. After edging out a promotion to Senior Counsel, a plane crash sends her waking up in a maid's uniform in a world of nobles and magic. Her mistress is the notorious villainess Iris von Rhenia, and the two of them are about to stand trial for poisoning the heroine — in a court that uses truth magic and allows no defense. Clara must learn the ins and outs of the unfair, convoluted, and often fantastical legal system of the Holy Kingdom of Arcadia before it's too late.

Aura Overload

PlumParrot

S87/100
In a crumbling empire ruled by cybernetic immortals, royal bodyguard Hector Finalis was betrayed, branded a traitor, and left for dead. Two centuries later, his lost neurodeck resurfaces in a scavenger haul, and he awakens in a fragile new body — a relic haunted by fractured memories and a blood oath most in this decayed age have forgotten. To survive, Hector must rebuild his aura system from nothing, forcing potentia through a process that can forge flesh and sharpen the mind — or shatter the unworthy. One overload could rip his unenhanced body apart. Bound to criminals and unexpected allies, Hector must claw his way back to power as he uncovers the truth behind his fall, all while struggling to master a rage that could destroy him unless he finds something worth living for.
