“I didn’t kill them directly. There was a big fight over the emperor’s throne among the siblings. It was a chaotic scene where we killed each other. …It’s the brawl I hate the most.”
He grinned grimly as if recalling that time.
“We ended up killing each other, and in the end, I was left. I was the one who sat on the emperor’s throne in the end, so it’s the same as me killing them.”
Levanfell shrugged lightly. But he frowned, thinking I was hurt because I didn’t respond.
“Did you hurt your ankle? Let me see.”
He let go of my waist without hesitation and knelt on one knee to examine my twisted ankle.
“……Did you fight with your siblings to become emperor?”
Levanfell, who was examining my ankle, looked up. As the wind blew, his bangs were swept away, exposing his pupils.
His eyes, beautiful as stars, sparkled temptingly.
“……No.”
Levanfell barely parted his lips that were stuck together. He answered me gently, as if he couldn’t get away from me as if under a spell.
“To protect.”
“……”
“I wanted to protect. To do that, I had to become the emperor.”
His longing gaze was captivating, persistently following me like a longstanding and vicious thirst.
“Terry.”
His nickname for me sounded strangely familiar. Levanfell reached out to me.
The nickname, the reaching hand, everything felt oddly familiar.
When was it? Recently?
No, no. Much earlier than now.
“When will you.”
Levanfell’s pitiful voice brushed past my ear with the wind. Then his fingertips gently touched my cheek.
That was the moment.
Suddenly, everything in front of me turned pale, and my vision violently swayed as if the sky and earth were reversing.
“Ugh!”
Clutching my head, I tightly grabbed Levanfell’s shoulder. Startled, Levanfell supported me with his whole body to prevent me from falling.
“Teriella! Are you okay?”
“Uh, uhh. I suddenly feel dizzy….”
It felt like all the strength in my body had drained out, and I couldn’t stand properly.
“I must have been tired lately.”
I quickly shook my head to shake off the dizziness.
“Gosh. Since it’s been longer than planned, it’s understandable that you’re tired.”
Levanfell quickly picked me up in his arms, and I was so surprised I couldn’t even scream.
“What, what is this?”
“We’re going to the doctor.”
“Why, why like this?”
“You said you were dizzy and tired. It’s better to be careful.”
Levanfell firmly replied, holding me in his arms as he headed for where the doctor was resting.
“Le, Levanfell. Put me down. Everyone’s staring.”
“……Everyone will look away. If anyone’s eyes meet mine, I’ll pluck their eyeballs out.”
The heads of the guarding knights turned quickly with the sound of the wind. I smacked Levanfell’s shoulder with a light punch, horrified.
“Why threaten to pluck the knights’ eyeballs?! What will you do with them once they’re plucked?”
“Understood. Don’t shout, I won’t pick you up. It’s even hard to shout when you’re dizzy.”
“Just a little dizzy and what……!”
Overprotective, Levanfell didn’t budge no matter what I said. He eventually carried me in his arms and took me to the doctor.
The doctor, who was filling an empty medicine jar, rushed over in one step when he saw me being carried in.
“No, Your Majesty! Are you seriously injured?!”
“Inspect the Empress thoroughly, she doesn’t seem well.”
“You feel unwell, Your Majesty? Please, this way!”
When the doctor pointed to the bed, Levanfell carefully put me down there. Then he explained my situation as if he were my spokesperson.
“She suddenly complained of intense dizziness and staggered.”
“I didn’t complain.”
“It was hard for her to even stand properly.”
“I was standing on my own two feet.”
Listening to Levanfell and my opposing statements, the doctor asked me,
“How intense is the dizziness? Was it difficult to even walk?”
Again, Levanfell intercepted the answer.
“She seemed to find it hard to walk.”
“No! I could walk on my own, but Levanfell…! Your Majesty carried me here by force!”
“Ththis will make it hard for me to prescribe anything. I will direct the questions to the Empress, and it would be quicker if the Empress answers them, Your Majesty.”
At the doctor’s words, Levanfell furrowed his brows. But he nodded his head in agreement.
“Your Majesty. I will ask again. Did you suddenly feel dizzy?”
“Uhhuh. It wasn’t severe… but I felt suddenly dizzy and my stomach churned. Like seasickness.”
The doctor, who was jotting down my symptoms, looked up sharply. Our eyes met.
“Huh?”
“Could it possibly…”
Without even examining me, the doctor asked with an excited face just after hearing my symptoms.
“Could there possibly be a chance of pregnancy?”
What? What nonsense is this! There’s no possibility of pregnancy when nothing happened!
I scowled as if it was not even worth answering, and the doctor seemed to read my expression and cleared his throat, jotting down the symptoms again.
“…Pregnancy?”
However, Levanfell, who was standing next to the doctor, quietly muttered the word “pregnancy” and soon wore a delighted expression.
“…Really?”
Really what? What’s real! Why are you asking with that expectant face when there’s been nothing between us like that!
“What are you talking about?! There’s no way it’s real! Your Majesty!”
“Ah. Right. I was lost in a fantasy. …Yes.”
When I shouted, Levanfell seemed to come to his senses, and with a face that seemed to realize his mistake, he clamped his mouth shut.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
