There’s plenty of stories to tell when getting reincarnated seven times! Dive into this delightful collection of short stories featuring Rishe and other favorites from 7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy! And don’t forget to check out the light novel and manga (available from Seven Seas) and the hit anime.

This handpicked selection showcases dozens of delightful tales, including tender moments between Arnold and Rishe not depicted in the main story and glimpses of characters who aren’t often in the limelight. See what Oliver, Arnold’s stalwart attendant, gets up to during his time off—and what his relationship is like with his lord’s little brother. Peer into a world where Arnold and Rishe are nothing more than students at the same academy. A few tales even feature Rishe’s past lives from the perspectives of those she was close to.

In the longest story, written specifically for this collection, Rishe and Arnold go undercover…as a married couple! Will our heroine be able to keep her cool around her “beloved husband” long enough to avoid suspicion? Either way, it’s bound to be amusing watching her try!
