    Yes, these two are quite good. I'm recommending them together since I don't know if you'll like them. In the first book, the protagonist is an NPC in this world. She seems like a warm and caring older sister to the players, but in reality, she sees the players as toys. She's really cold and ruthless, which is quite captivating. The school is basically her territory (I guess). The second book is about a female protagonist who becomes an NPC in a horror world. She's very adaptable to gory scenes. She's in a horror world recruiting shop assistants (opening a restaurant). Don't be fooled by the low ratings of the first two books; they're genuinely quite good.
