A Fallen Holy Knight Is Obsessed With Me (12 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 97
Anthony instinctively turned his head to the side and, without hesitation, shoved Kasha away before quickly rolling aside.
“…!”
Boom.
The very instant he vacated the spot, a golden sphere of divine power struck the place where he had stood, exploding in a blinding flash of light.
Thrown by Anthony’s powerful force, Kasha slammed hard into the massive trunk of a tree and groaned in pain.
As the dazzling radiance from the divine power faded, the figure of the attacker emerged—Lion, the Holy Knight, clad in silver armor smeared with monster blood, glaring fiercely at his enemy with sharp eyes.
Seeing Kasha collapsed on the ground, Lion tore off his helmet and rushed over to help her up.
“Kasha, are you all right?”
“Lion….”
Lion swiftly checked on Kasha and, upon seeing the vivid red handprint clearly marked on her neck, turned around in fury.
“Whoever you are, you’re a coward—sneaking a woman into the forest like this to harm her.”
Hearing Lion’s icy accusation, Anthony scoffed incredulously and clenched his fists tightly. Fortunately, the strange symptoms he’d experienced earlier vanished the moment he’d let go of Kasha.
A sudden thought seized him. If he attacked head-on right now, Lion would absolutely refuse to dodge. That foolish older brother wouldn’t avoid the strike—even if it meant Kasha behind him would become the sacrifice.
Of course, Lion was one of the Empire’s most exceptional knights, but Anthony was now in a superhuman state, empowered by the magic stone.
‘I’ve got a real chance if it comes down to one-on-one. No—in fact, I might completely overwhelm him.’
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
I can’t wait for the fall of the crown prince. He’s killing left and right and getting away with it.
