Summary
I transmigrated into a novel as the maid of a prince who was trapped inside a tower.
It was depressing enough to be locked up in that tower, but the situation that I found myself in as soon as I transmigrated was straight up whack.
The original owner of this body, Rosé, threatened the prince and forced him to kiss her!
To make matters worse, Rosé was completely obsessed with the prince, and while trying to monopolize him, she dies a futile death!
We’re right on track to [death via decapitation] as soon as the prince escapes the tower.
So instead, I offered to make a contract with the prince, aptly titled as ‘The Contract for the Life and Death of Rosé Artius’.
No skinship at all! As long as he guarantees that I’ll live until a ripe old age, I will devote my diligence and loyalty to the prince!
But somehow… the prince’s gaze was a bit dangerous. And inside the tower, we were totally alone.
“Rosé, let’s kiss.”
…How did it end up like this?!
* * *
The breath that lingered on my lips disappeared as the stranger moved away.
I stared at the man who kissed me just now.
Under those dark eyebrows were red eyes that were exceedingly cold.
I was instantly bewitched. I couldn’t look away, as if there was an irresistible force coveting my gaze. Because he’s so handsome.
“Rosé, how long do we have to do this?”
I shuddered as the sweet voice whispered next to my ear. Only then did I come to my senses.
I laughed awkwardly to fill the silence. Ahaha, I really don’t know…
“I-I think we can stop now.”
At my words, Albert grinned. It was the forced, soulless smile of a sales team member. Nonetheless, he was still breathtakingly beautiful.
“Then, can I see it now?”
“…Yes.”
He took the wand that I had been holding.
In the novel, the maid Rosé always asked for a kiss from Albert in exchange for letting him see the wand.
In short, at this very moment, I was digging my own grave.
…Damn it.

I love this novel. Can’t wait for the next chapter. Thank you for all hard work ♥
Liv
i think readers would probably prefer (i personally prefer it as well) if you’d number it as ch90 (part 1) and ch90 (part2), it’s easier to see what chapter you are in the raws or how far you’re into the novel in relative to the original chapters
yonnee
sorry about the confusion! it was explained in chapter 1, but it’s because the chapter numbering system in this website is different. i’ll try to edit the remaining chapters faster so that we can get to the new chapters soon (starting c181 here in BR)
Liv
Alright, i think i can wait kekw thanks for your hard work!

Your welcome reader!
Nell
Can you share what novel the other smart FL was from?
KellyBlossom
I can’t be sure because it’s been a while, but if I’m not mistaken, it’s the fl of the work “When I Announced A Divorce, The Obsessive Maniac Went Crazy” ~google translate
Nell
“I raised a black dragon” has a novel that is completely translated, you can search up the name on novelupdates and, it should link you to the translation site. Its one of my favourite novels as well (୨♡୧ ❛ᴗ❛)✧

Ughh I want to experience something like this…geez being single is so impossible (•_•)
NotYourBaee
What chapter is this in the raws?
yonnee
108 (just divide it by two)
Tosinn
I know it’s Emmett’s choice to die and he’s been alive for such a long runs but couldn’t he just successfully go through the trial and take some of the money and live somewhere peacefully until just after Albert becomes king and then he could appear and tell him what happened to Jung-in? QwQ

FVCK THAT GUY
Aeder
Wow, she really is becoming blinded by love. Teaching a kid to accurately see his limitations in a society where not doing so can mean death is absolutely a positive thing.
FireLight
It really is crazy how beastly people get when someone is hot tho. It’s a boon and and bane, though the upsides outweigh the bad overall.
FireLight
Hmmm maybe he’d let his guard down if she would stop commenting on his appearance. Ik if I had someone who had just been trying to shake me down then try to convince me that it wasn’t like that anymore, but they couldn’t shut up about how hot I was… the side eye would be intense!
FireLight
Albert is just totally ignoring that no touching part of the contract!
Mr Owens
Thanks
Reese
Thanks for the translation I just kinda came from them manga and I just wanted to say it’s beautiful.
Yunie Yun
How dare he ask Albert that!! I understand her myself, I’ll be pissed at the other trash.
EVENANGINAMO
FVVVBBBVKKKK THEM

Does anyone know how to buy coins? When I choice on my coin balance it just goes to setting and nothing else seems to work either?

Nevermet
This makes me really wonder what’s up with her balck magic stuff. I figured it was the old Rose who had cast a spell to get her and Albert together but inadvertently destroyed her old consciousness as a consequence.
Maybe there really is something else going on here though if it’s still happening.
Nevermet
Wonder if Rose will be able to kinda match Albert’s magic because she knows English and is a contractor. If she can skip the magic circles then she can simply speak english to cast whatever spell she wants.
Nevermet
I can’t help but suspect time travel. Maybe Rosé went back in time with dragon power shenanigans and saved him. I mean she already said she wished she had and the woman’s description sounds very similar to her.
Nevermet
Well, shit! That was a sudden twist I honestly didn’t see coming. Makes me wish she had just told Albert about her identity earlier. He’s gonna have a harder time figuring it out now. One saving grace is that the dragon contract was with her Japanese name and not as Rosé.
Yunie Yun
My desire to kill someone increases
ReaderofALLthethings
Uh…. Alexander is going to die without a contractor no matter what happens, so how can she stop him from dying? She can’t be his contractor and anyone she chooses is not garenteed to succeed. The fact that he took down a bunch of bad guys when he died and people knew his name is a better death than most baby dragons. Even though it’s sad, his death was an honorable one that shouldn’t be changed.
Lisa
Loving this novel, thank you for the amazing translation.
Lady Godiva
Right. Ahjussi can be translated to Mister or Sir so yes, since she is talking to the Knights ranking higher than her, it’s better to refer them as Sirs rather than using the original Korean term Ahjussi. Since this is an English translated novel, we might as well enjoy the English language. And usually, dragons which are non-gender lifeforms, dragons are usually referred by male gender terms.
Lady Godiva
Hahahahahaha… what is this? A scene from Superman? I can just hear the BGM “Can You Read My Mind”. I like the interaction happening between these two. I hope there’s more of these stuff later on. Thanks for the enjoyable chapter, Yonee.
Lady Godiva
This prince is the most romantic prince i’ve read so far. So honest and straightforward. But i get Rose’s feelings. If Albert says these words to me I’ll still feel doubtful.
Lady Godiva
Yonnee, do you happen to be French? I love the pet names Blanc and Noir. So stylish.
Yunie Yun
Sometimes we face extremely difficult choices.
Liv
CAN’T WAIT FOR THEIR REUNION LOL
Audrey
Мне нравится, что здесь нет 100 глав осознания, отрицания, принятия и т.д. Герои хотя бы отчасти пытаются быть честными с друг другом, поговорить о своих чувствах
Audrey
Sorry, Baron Bergen, there’s no antidote to love ┐(︶▽︶)┌
Liv
no freakign way they’re making blanc the 2nd ml???
yonnee
Audrey
How… how did he know about Liam and Rosé’s agreement?
Audrey
Though I’m rereading this novel and remember some plot twists it’s still interesting. Thank you very much, Yonnee, for this wonderful translation! ♥
Audrey
OMG (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄
Audrey
Ahaha, sorry, Yoo Jung-in, it was all planed XD
Audrey
Oh my, I hope the kingdom will be alright after Jung-in’s disappearance 0.0 Poor Mercy, Liam and Shubert, they will definitely have a hard time because of Albert =.=’
Audrey
Hmm, if it’s two decades in the past, how old is Albert in present? 28 or 31?
Nell
Exactly, her response seems quite shortsighted.
Velvet Paw
Haha, Albert can smell a strong competitor when he sees one!
Mai Chan
Blanc lmao. As if Albert wasn’t jealous enough already…. If Blanc actually morphs and copies Albert’s body…. Lololol. Two Albert’s!
Sinthepirate
Thank you!! for the translation.
On a side note seems like the author is drawing out the time before they meet again and it’s started driving me nuts!!!!!
Mai Chan
I hope he remembers more of the past…! Or, maybe she’ll make a choice not to make young Albert forget her? And then he remembers in the present?
Mai Chan
It’d be perfect if Albert contracted Alexander….
Mai Chan
Albert remembered just enough to dislike Blanc hahahaha.
Mai Chan
I can’t tell if I should laugh or cry. LOL.
Labbito
Ohhh my God! How sweet:)

Why does it always stop when it starts getting good
MiraiSaesang
The dragons can still survive the trial even without a contractor, it would just be more difficult. The contractor essentially shares half their pain, hence why it’s better with a contractor – a contractor increases the odds of survival/success…A contractor still does not guarantee that you can pass, if either one of you is dies, then you both die….In Og Alexander’s case, his power was used by Marquis Evens, so he was too weak to endure his trial – he let the Marquis use his power because he believed he would become his contractor to share his pain, so he thought it was a worthwhile exchange, by the time he realized he was duped it was too late.
Audrey
Hurray! They are finnaly together! But dude really need some therapy after all hardships…
Tina
My girl really thought she would be in a rofan and her partner would be a sane person. Lol
Tina
Hey..Mercy should have used FLs name to coerce him into not attacking the country
Tina
Damn these onion cutting ninjas
Tina
Offff this is so bittersweet.
Tina
Two partings at once? Author that’s so cruel
Tina
Ohhh darn we are going down the obsession route
Tina
He went for war that I really don’t appreciate as a plot point but I am glad he isn’t being controlling, at least. As of yet.
Tina
Rose f’ed up but poor girl also suffered when she was young.

Bei Eulji
Congratulation, you succesfully unlock Albert yandere route
Bei Eulji
More than he need love… he need therapy too.. PTSD is a nasty mental illness, that lead to anxiety and depression. So, Jung-in.. after this lovey dovey time, please schedule sessions with the therapist for Albert.
Bei Eulji
Pity this is not sm*t ehem! Would love to read, I mean study a stamina of a powerful mage.
Bei Eulji
Owh, so dragon if strong enough can go through this without dying.. I forgot about that fact
Bei Eulji
This Albert very yandere haha
Bei Eulji
Albert kind of shakes his anxiety of been seperated by Jung-in with having s*x ..

Umms
yeah the separate lateral palace.. sounds like a empress palace to me
skidooskidoken
Traveling dimensions was confirmed with Alexander? Was that his name? So time travel should be possible too
Considering how he just compares her smile and her mannerisms to rose I think she might have met him as her real self and not as rose- otherwise I feel like he would recognize her

É um pouco cansativo quando as protagonista femininas ficam falando quanto os protagonista masculino é bonito, já entendi que ele é gostoso! Não precisa falar isso em mais mil parágrafos!
It's a little tiring when the female protagonists keep talking about how handsome the male protagonist is, I already understood that he's hot! No need to say that in another thousand paragraphs!
Audrey
Great story and great translation! Yonnee, thank you so much♥
