The Lord Is Actually the Game Designer?! [Western Fantasy]

Anna is the daughter of Lord Anglie. After suffering a high fever, she recovered memories of her life in the twenty-first century.

The Anglie territory is the most remote and impoverished region on the entire continent of Aiyi.

Anna looked at the fuzzy little ball in front of her, which claimed to be a spirit of the island.

“So you want me to help you develop the territory and make it thrive, in return for sealing our Anglie demon clan for so long, but also helping collect the power of our souls from generation to generation?”

Anna rubbed her temples and reluctantly agreed.

After all, now that her father had passed away, it was time for her to strengthen her own power.

They summoned wave after wave of players from another world.

“Wow, there’s a bird that can drop low-temperature flames from its wings. How does that work?”

“The lord’s daughter is so cute!”

“Let’s start with a quest. What? You’re saying I look too scary to go near town?!”

*

Anna carefully held out a basket woven from vines. “You’ve worked hard, brave big brother. These are berries Auntie Elle just picked.”

The player, stuck on an impossibly difficult quest and cursing the game developers: “!!!”

Charge! Let’s help Miss Anna rule the entire continent of Aiyi!

Anna, the mastermind behind the scenes.

Don’t make things up. She’s just a cute and helpless little girl.

*

Anna had finally managed to make some progress building up her territory alongside the players. Proudly standing in the lord’s manor with her hands on her hips, she gazed out the window at the busy yet peaceful residents going about their ordinary lives.

But...

When did she get engaged?

Anna looked at the “son of a demon” who had been sent to her as a political bridegroom, at a loss for what to do. “Y-you can stop crying. I’ll treat you well.”

Mostly because the magic contract meant she couldn’t break off the engagement, either.

Looking at the timid boy with white hair and purple eyes, who seemed self-conscious about his appearance, Anna, four years younger than him, rose onto her tiptoes and patted his head. “Don’t be scared. Anna will take care of you.”

What son of a demon? She was the real demon here.

P.S. This story (game) is geared toward casual gameplay, so players will spend plenty of time farming, opening shops, cooking, and doing other everyday activities.

When she woke up, Luo Shu found a memory that did not belong to her in her mind, along with a System that claimed to have been left behind by her past-life self to help her.

It turned out she had transmigrated into an old-school power fantasy novel, and she was the person the male lead had cherished and protected right up until his death and rebirth.

Luo Shu looked at the brat in front of her, who was awkwardly explaining that he had already cursed out the person who had insulted her while she was busy gaming.

Wait, this little brat who gets into fights with her every day is going to become the most powerful tycoon in China?

And he’s going to make some kind of substitute contract, then spend all day looking at her and reminiscing?

Luo Shu shook her head hard, as if trying to shake off the fantasy.

Mu Yichen looked at the girl in front of him in confusion. “...Did getting cursed at make you stupid?”

Not only was she dumb, she looked downright vacant.

Luo Shu, who hadn’t gone to Qingbei in her previous life but had attended a 211 university, said, “I’ll give you a chance to rephrase that.”

What happens later can wait until later.

For now, she was still alive.

First things first: she had to do her best to keep this little guy from going bankrupt.

Life is so much better when you’re happy. Why insist on brooding and standing in the rain with the heroine?

Who knows which of them has lost their mind.

Luo Shu looked at the System in front of her and nodded in satisfaction.

If she were on her own, she’d be worried about messing things up. But with this System, which could keep track of the plot and help whenever the male lead had a bad idea or a villain tried to stir up trouble, things were different.

You’d have to be useless to lose when you had a cheat code.

But... why hadn’t this brat turned into the kind of man who gives an evil smirk and makes the whole world pay?

Why was he still calling her Shushu every other sentence at eighteen?

Why was that substitute girl looking at her with shining eyes? Wait! Don’t blush!

Luo Shu stared blankly as the balance in her bank account kept growing.

So much for going bankrupt. Why was she getting richer?

System! You tricked me!
