He was just a player who could overturn the situation anytime he disliked it, laying a new board. Comparing him to a lowly chess piece was unthinkable.

“But she’s been acting strangely since the day Shadi’s youngest daughter caused a commotion in front of Caleb’s estate, according to the servants.”

Although he lifted one corner of his mouth, his black eyes were sharp, shining so keenly that it seemed like red gleams flashed.

“Look at how she’s growing more feeble with each passing day. It has become quite pleasant to see her like a white bone.”

Hades, with a mocking grin, grabbed Latifa’s face with his large hand.

“Ge-General.”

From the opposite side, voices of great confusion and anxiety were heard.

“That can’t be true! She can talk. She spoke very well when I last saw her!”

Amira said with a slightly cloudy expression, and as soon as Hades heard that, he abruptly released Latifa’s face and stepped confidently toward Amira.

It was like the talons of an eagle that never missed a moment.

“So, you saw my Fraulein last time? Fine, then there must have been something between you two! Speak right here. What happened on that day.”

Hades was entirely different from the dominators Latifa had seen so far.

He was a powerful and charismatic hero, but at the same time.

‘Sly and nasty!’

Hades, boldly confronting Amira and making her speak out her mistakes, was gradually tightening the noose, making it difficult for her to breathe.

“W-We just happened to meet and talked a bit. About the coming-of-age ceremony.”

Amira hesitated, looking at Hades’ approaching face with a reddish expression.

Hades, pressing the circlet with a central ruby on Amira’s forehead with his index finger, spoke with a low and cold voice.

“Grand Bazaar’s Flame within Flames, Ignite commands you to speak in detail. From the beginning to the end, don’t leave anything out.”

“General. Our sister is still a young girl!”

Shadi 1, 2, and 3 began to step forward, looking perplexed.
“Amira may have given a little scare to the slaves who didn’t listen in the marketplace, and perhaps the General’s Fraulein was surprised to see that.”

‘It wasn’t just a little scare; she hit them to the point of bleeding! They didn’t do anything wrong!’

Latifa began to feel slightly angry at the Shadi Confucians’ excuses.

“Shadi Confucians. I ask you. In this Grand Bazaar, who is the most feared warrior you should be wary of?”

Hades asked the Confucians, and they gathered their voices, flattering with ‘General Hades.’

To their tearful flattery, Hades raised an eyebrow ambiguously and said,

“This Fraulein of mine doesn’t get surprised by just anything. That the moon goddess, symbolizing both mercy and cruelty, got surprised by the act of scaring those slaves is beyond my understanding. Tell me so that I can understand.”

“He, he was a slave from the Empire! Seeing fellow Empire slaves being scolded probably shocked her.”

Amira shouted with a trembling voice.

‘To admit that with my own mouth!’

Hades was using every means to extract the desired information from the other party.

He displayed his high authority, provoked with an arrogant attitude, induced emotional fear in the other party with a fast-paced conversation hindering rational judgment.

“Phew. I told you to tell me in detail. Haven’t you figured out that I don’t have much patience now?”

Hades, speaking as if caressing Amira like rolling beads, said,

“I, last day… While passing in front of Caleb’s estate, the slaves didn’t listen, so punishment ”

Hades abruptly cut off her words and suddenly raised his voice.

“Darn, I can’t understand your filthy speech! Tell me in detail about how the slaves didn’t listen and what punishment was imposed! Look carefully, my joy is locked in sadness and can’t speak now! Do you understand what the situation is now?!”

Latifa, guessing Hades’ intentions, reluctantly turned her head, covered her mouth, and began to act as a weeping heroine of misery.

As the situation became more serious, the Shadi Confucians finally bowed their bodies and lowered their heads.

‘In this situation, they can’t really speak out about hitting innocent slaves and even slapping my cheek. They’ll try to wrap up things quickly.’

“How can we compensate to ensure General Hades’ joy is not disturbed? How about an amount equivalent to the cost of ten slaves?”

As expected.

“Do you know what this is?”

Hades showed them a piece of paper and continued,

“Isn’t this a tax receipt?”

Shadi 1 took it and, after reading it, widened his eyes and exclaimed, ‘Oh.’ Seeing that, Hades flicked his finger with a proud attitude.

“I voluntarily pay a special holding tax for owning my Fraulein. That’s the tax Caleb paid to the palace this quarter.”

‘Hold tax? Is he really insane?! Hades is voluntarily paying a holding tax for me?!’

“Tw-twenty-five hundred. Gold coins, twenty-five hundred notes…!”

“Yikes! Sir, did you say 2,500 gold notes?”

Latifa wasn’t familiar with the prices in the Grand Bazaar. However, not knowing the exact prices, she could still tell that 2,500 gold notes and their surprised faces indicated a considerable amount.

“It’s for this quarter. There will be more to pay next quarter. My joy is worth that much. But you lot ruined my joy to that extent.”

Hades glared at them, growling.

“If you were the ones who caused harm to her, you should certainly provide compensation according to that value, right? The value of ten slaves? Ha! You dare to treat my joy with such cheapness! I must eliminate those who dared to insult me.”
Hades shouted with one foot on the table, and the Shadi Confucians and Amira stood up, kneeling before Hades and bowing their heads.

‘But this time, his madness doesn’t seem to show?’

Latifa closely examined his face, but behind the angry appearance, she could only glimpse the excited amusement, playful mischief.

And though the spirit wasn’t visible, his expression seemed to ask Latifa.

[Well, what do you want?]

To that question, Latifa looked at Amira, who was kneeling with her head bowed.

‘Yes. What I want is not money or gold and silver coins.’

Even if they were given a large sum, as long as Latifa was with Hades, money was as useless to her as a fingernail.

What Latifa wanted was just one thing: for Amira to slap her cheek and receive the deserved punishment for tormenting the slaves without any reason.

Latifa gazed quietly at Amira, indicating her to Hades.

Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife

I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!

Intro

When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.

After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.

Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.

Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.

At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.

Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.

The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.

He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.

[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
