At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 73
Looking back on Caella’s life, she hadn’t truly been happy since the age of twenty-one. Memories of shame and injustice far outnumbered those of joy and delight.
“I hear you underwent regression.”
Pheon lifted his head, his face instantly drained of all color. He stood frozen, unable to move, as though he’d just heard the most terrifying words in the world.
“Then… the Your Highness I remember and the Your Highness before me now—are the same person, aren’t you?”
Her tone was polite and courteous, her voice soft yet firm.
“You dislike me, don’t you?”
No, I don’t dislike you. Pheon unconsciously shook his head. Caella stepped down from her chair to meet his gaze at eye level.
“There’s no need for this. I’m not someone worth such consideration.”
Each word Caella spoke plunged him deeper into panic. He would have preferred anger or hatred. This was an outcome he’d never anticipated.
Or perhaps it was one he’d dimly sensed yet deliberately ignored out of sheer fear. Now, faced with a Caella devoid of all desire, he realized there was nothing he could offer her.
“You know that, Your Highness.”
I don’t know. Pheon wanted to say he didn’t know—and wished never to know anything again, cowardly and forever.
But he dared not—could not—interrupt Caella’s words. He’d silenced her relentlessly for four whole years. Now, she deserved to say everything she wished, even if it was something he’d rather never hear.
“I’m from the South.”
Pheon squeezed his eyes shut. He should have sealed shut every mouth that ever pointed fingers and whispered that phrase. Now Caella herself had spoken it.
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!

He apologized for making her say such things. He prostrated himself before her,
I’ve commented previously that he accomplished this complete ruin in just four years but now I’m remembering this really all started with the murder of her father.
Amidst all this, the only thing that barely satisfied him was the lump of gold G
Note: A lump of gold is not the same as an ingot, which is shaped into a standad size for easier transport.
That Mad Dragon Guosalante remained bound by his own oath from a thousand years
My brother in Christ, that’s a dragon. Magic isn’t necessary when fire, and lots of it, will do.
