“…”
Seeing the three individuals, Delina stood still without saying a word.
In reality, she hesitated, unsure of how to react. Although she knew well in her mind what the current situation was, looking into those eyes that seemed to stare at her as if they didn’t know her made her heart ache.
“Delina…”
Looking at Delina, who was alive and well, Celine, appearing surprised, murmured with a puzzled expression.
“…What happened? I heard it was perilous.”
“Yeah, it was dangerous. But after failing to catch the culprit, I felt so unjust that I couldn’t die.”
While talking to Celine, Delina opened a portal to use her ability. However, Delina couldn’t use her ability. It was because of the knives swiftly flying toward her hand.
“…!”
“Not appropriate to do that during a conversation.”
After avoiding the knives, Delina turned her head and saw Noah, who was smiling and winking.
“You were trying to use some weird technique just now, right?”
At Noah’s words, Delina’s eyes widened for a moment before she realized.
“He bought information from Vansent, huh.”
No wonder there were so many conspicuously large and expensive-looking traps. There must have been some kind of deal. Delina lowered her hand again.
“Calling yourself a clown, are you really a clown? There’s even a funny monkey.”
“Kik!”
Although the monkey Gem responded to the words “funny monkey,” its spirit didn’t last long. It was because of Ashud, who was glaring at her as if he would kill her immediately.
“Tyrant, Ashud…”
In the midst of the blazing square, she met him again. Ashud, who stood in the center of the square, gazing at Delina, had an icy look in his eyes.
“…I greet you, Your Excellency Hwangtae-son.”
Delina bowed her head and greeted Ashud.
“I am aware that Your Excellency has sent the royal army toward the border.”
“…”
“I hope you will withdraw that order.”
No matter how one called him the Duke of Ulphirim, there were limits to his army and power. If the royal army attacked the Duke, the outcome was obvious. Delina had to prevent things from going that way.
“…”
Even if she had to withstand the gaze of Ashud, who approached her as if he would glare at her harshly.
“Delina Floren, was it?”
Just calling her name created an oppressive atmosphere that overwhelmed Delina. She swallowed her dry saliva. Then Ashud’s lips curled up slightly.
“You were momentarily surprised.”
“…”
“It’s been a long time since I saw a noble speak so confidently about their opinions in front of me. Well, it has been a while…”
Ashud’s voice became even lower.
“It feels rather unpleasant.”
If there had been a knife in his hand at that moment, he might have cut Delina’s throat. Feeling the tense atmosphere, Delina kept her mouth shut.
“Kik, kik!”
However, instinctively feeling the threat to life from Ashud’s demeanor, Gem sprang out from Delina’s shoulder. However, Gem couldn’t escape. It was because Noah immediately caught Gem.
“Gem!”
Surprised by Delina’s shout, Noah lifted the corner of his mouth as if amused.
“Is this monkey’s name Gem?”
“…”
“Given that you even gave it a name, it seems you cherish this monkey a lot. So, now you know what to do, right?”
Noah pointed to Delina’s side, indicating the weapons and pouches hanging on her waist. After hesitating for a moment, Delina eventually put down the weapons and pouches on the ground.
“You understand language well. The knights who came before didn’t understand a single word.”
Delina’s action pleased Ashud as well, and he opened his mouth as if satisfied. Soon, Delina, without anything on her body, faced Noah, who gestured toward the direction he pointed. There was a trap set up by Vansent in that direction. Understanding the meaning of Noah’s words, Delina spoke.
“Fine. But release him.”
Delina looked at Gem, who was shivering pitifully, and said. Noah readily agreed.
“Okay.”
As Gem was released from Noah’s hand, Delina took the last step.
Suddenly, the trap activated terrifyingly, with ropes shooting out and tightly winding around Delina’s body before lifting her into the air. Ashud, looking at Delina suspended in the air, seemed quite interested.
“Elphisha mentioned that you have quite an interesting nickname. Something like a clown. I’d like to entertain you, but unfortunately, I can’t do that.”
For Ashud now, Delina’s nickname of a clown was nothing more than entertainment. At that moment, Celine approached Ashud.
“Just a moment, Ashud.”
Surprisingly, Ashud quickly turned his head at Celine’s words. Smiling at his surprised look, Celine continued.
“We should hurry to catch up with the knights, so it would be better to hurry. I have something to talk to Delina about, so could Noah go ahead and prepare? I’ll join you soon.”
“…”
“We’ll hurry, okay?”
At Celine’s words, Ashud nodded again while still hanging in the air. Noah turned around as well. Delina stared blankly at the two figures moving away, as if she no longer had anything to do with herself.
“It must be shocking, right? Everyone suddenly turning out like that.”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
