“It might come in the 21st year,” Hades said carelessly, and pointed to a corner of the tent with his chin.

“Blanket, cover her.”

Where Hades pointed with his chin, Latifa Glaesia was lying on a makeshift bed.

“Ge, General. I really don’t understand. The actions you’re taking, General……”

“Shush.”

Hades, seeming a little annoyed, silenced Manus.

Manus quietly covered Latifa with a blanket and quickly left Hades’ command tent.

The next day, Latifa was examining the place where the water had poured down, following Hades. Hades had brought her along to see what he was thinking.

“It looked at me like this. Standing upright on two legs like a human, not making a sound.”

Latifa imitated the creature she had seen yesterday, staring at Hades. Standing upright with her hands gently folded in front, she looked at Hades, who quickly turned his head to the side.

His slightly twitching shoulder clearly showed that he was holding back a laugh.

“Don’t laugh! They were really strange looking creatures.”

“Chk.”

“I’m not lying. The body and tail were so long, and the eyes were bulging……”

“Meerkat.”

“What?”

“What you saw were meerkats. Chk. Chk. Ahaha!”

Hades, giggling at Latifa’s clumsy imitation of a meerkat, finally burst out laughing.

“What did they do?”

“……I’m not imitating anymore.”
Hades, who seemed to have explained something seriously, made Latifa respond with a bewildered expression because of his laughter.

“Puahaha! I should give thanks to the guardian deities for allowing me to see such a funny spectacle.”

“I’ve never seen such an animal before in my life! It’s possible not to know!”

Hades laughed as if he had truly lost his mind. He laughed so much that tears formed at the corners of his eyes.

Finally suppressing his laughter, Hades cheerfully spoke, tapping Latifa’s shoulder.

“To think that you can even communicate with animals you’ve never seen before, what a wonderful ability.”

“……It’s not a particularly useful ability.”

“Oh, no, it will be very useful. My frau. I guarantee it.”

“Frau?”

‘What is frau?’

Latifa tilted her head at the sudden unfamiliar desert word, but she missed the chance to ask when he took her hand and walked towards the water wagons.

“Oh, there she is. That silverhaired woman.”

“Is she really a symbol of luck? Seeing such misfortune, she might be a symbol of bad luck. Maybe the imperial people are cursing her.”

Receiving the now familiar murmuring and curious glances of the desert warriors, Latifa followed Hades. There, he showed her a large leather bag.

“What’s this?”

“The bottom of the water bag is all torn, and the water leaked out.”

Upon closer examination, small marks from something sharp were left on the bottom.

Had there been a large hole, the sound of the falling water would have been loud, but the water seeped out through small holes and seemed to have gone unnoticed for a long time.

The sandy floor they were standing on still held so much moisture that it was damp in this dry wind.

“Is this because the leather has dried and torn?”

“You know as well as I do, these leathers are newly supplied from the border region.”

“That’s true. A new bag shouldn’t tear…… unless someone did it on purpose.”

This time, Hades extended another bag. It squirmed as if something living were inside.

“And this little guy injured his leg and was left behind in the wagon.”

When Latifa opened the bag, a sleek and small snout peeked out.

Soon, wide and large ears sprang up, and a cute little creature with a tan coat and a pink tongue started licking Latifa’s hand.

“Ack! Is this a cat……?”

“It’s a fox. Don’t you know a fox?”

“The empire’s foxes don’t look like this!”

“Our foxes look like this.”

“Ah, how cute……!”

Enthralled by the small desert fox’s cuteness, Latifa gazed at it in fascination and let out a soft exclamation.

Hades secretly handed her a dried date palm from his pocket, and she secretly fed it to the fox’s mouth, looking around cautiously.

The fox, perhaps continuously starved, greedily devoured the fruit.

“It would normally be a scapegoat that deserves death for wasting precious water, but for now, you can keep it.”

Startled by the term ‘scapegoat’, Latifa looked closely at the desert fox. The little fox, injured in its leg, had wet fur.

“You said it was left in the wagon? Did this fox tear the water bag?”

“……Yes.”

Hades nodded with an inexplicable expression. As if watching the eyes of the soldiers around, Latifa understood and stroked the wet head of the fox.
‘He’s telling me to find out. Whether this fox is the real culprit or not.’

Having discerned Hades’s intentions, Latifa Glaesia quickly focused on the fox, trying to summon a spirit.

But the fox, seemingly terrified, went back into the pocket as soon as it ate the date palm, not even showing its face.

“It doesn’t seem possible now.”

“Fussy.”

“I told you, it’s a useless ability. I don’t even know when it will manifest.”

“You were too busy hiding it, so how could you know the ability properly?”

“I’m sorry.”

“If you have an ability, you should use it. Knowing what you can do and where your limits are is the most important thing.”

“…….”

“Well, it was my fault for expecting that from a foolish imperial.”

“Hey!”

At being called foolish, Latifa Glaesia got angry, and Hades chuckled, messing her silver hair.

‘She was a princess who received an upscale education, but he keeps calling her foolish.’

Really. Being of royal origin, she couldn’t even speak the truth.

Latifa Glaesia pouted her lips but held the pocket with the desert fox in it dear to her chest. If she kept it with her, she might be able to communicate with it.

‘Is this why my ability is needed?’

“There are heaps of things I need to teach my Frau.”

But what Hades asked Latifa Glaesia to do was not to train animals or to communicate with them.

To become his Frau. That was what Hades had asked of her.

“But, General. What is a Frau?”

“What?”

“Frau. You keep calling me Frau. What exactly is it?”

“Frau is Frau.”

To Latifa’s question, Hades answered as if it were obvious. His answer, so natural, left Latifa Glaesia speechless, and she let it pass.

Male lead is a clingy little husband

One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.

Introduction:

One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.

One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.

As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.

From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.

But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.

Mini scene 1:

One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.

Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”

Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”

Mini scene 2:

After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.

Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.

Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”

Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”

Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.

[Reading Guide]

1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.

2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
