The Heavenly Tyrant Living Next Door

After quitting her miserable job, Shiratori Anna moved into a cheap apartment to cut expenses.

Her neighbor made such a racket late at night, time and again, that she learned firsthand that you get what you pay for.

After several magical clashes, the neighbor only got worse. At the end of her rope, Shiratori Anna once again knocked on his door in the middle of the night.

"Whatever you're doing, could you please keep it down..."

Her voice faded as she saw the bloodstained knife in his hand and his bloodstained upper body.

The man raised an eyebrow. "Why'd you stop?"

Shiratori Anna calmly backed away. "Sorry to bother you."

He grabbed the back of her neck, his voice low. "Since you have no complaints now, let's hear what I have to say."

"Leaving trash outside my door, throwing cigarette butts onto my balcony, playing porn videos out loud in the middle of the night... How are we settling that score?"

Shiratori Anna thought that was all because he had been a terrible neighbor first, making noise and disturbing her. She had only fought magic with magic because she had no other choice.

But with his bloodied knife in front of her, she felt guilty, though her expression stayed calm.

"What do you think?"

The man said, "My lease is up."

Shiratori Anna restrained her delight.

The man grinned roguishly and shamelessly asked, "Can you put me up for a while?"

Shiratori Anna stared at him. "Huh??"

After they were forced to live together, Shiratori Anna discovered that the man's job was "assassin." Even though he was clean and polite, no longer made a racket, and had the conscience to pay half the rent, she still nervously saved money to make her escape.

But one thing after another kept delaying her plans.

Then the "assassin" confessed his feelings for her.

Shiratori Anna knew she couldn't put it off any longer. She happily agreed, then packed her things and fled the next day while the assassin was out.

After falling for his neighbor at first sight, Zenin Toji followed the advice of his wannabe master strategist and pulled a series of childish stunts to get her attention. They had no effect, so he decided to do things his own way.

The day after their happy ending, Zenin Toji strode out, then remembered he had forgotten his wallet and went back. He ran straight into the woman trying to bolt out the door.

His brows lowered, his voice dark. "Where are you going?"

Shiratori Anna felt utterly hopeless, her face pale, but she forced herself to bluff. "I like you, but I'm worried you'll use our legal relationship as an excuse not to pay your share of the rent."

Toji: "?"

Zenin Toji handed over his entire salary. Shiratori Anna thought back to his excellent cooking and steady personality, then took another look at his sexy body and remembered he was an assassin. In tears, she agreed to marry him.

(He's an assassin, okay? If I turn him down, he'll kill me, right?)
