Count Odor was in despair as he looked at the issuance date, location, and unique number written on the gold coins. He had found the money, but the embezzler Ancedo had disappeared and was nowhere to be found.

It was clear that he was trying to sneak out of Odor Castle.

‘Ollentia, I should have believed the child’s words more…’

Count Odor was determined to capture Ancedo without fail. If he couldn’t do that, he felt he wouldn’t be able to look at his nephew’s face.

Using a communication stone, Count Odor spoke to the commander of the Odor Castle guards.

“We’re going to publicly announce the priest Ancedo of Odor Cathedral as a fugitive. Make sure he doesn’t escape!”

Ancedo, the priest? Why? What’s going on…?

“He’s the culprit of the embezzlement case at Odor Cathedral. And above all, he threatened my nephew.”

Yes, yes! We’ll mobilize immediately!

After contacting the commander, Count Odor went to meet the Archbishop. He had the most important news that the Archbishop would be curious about.

“Why does the atmosphere feel so ominous? Huh?”

Bobi approached Ollentia, who was lying on the bed. She raised her eyebrows and crossed her fingers, which felt extremely uneasy.

Ollentia tightly held her hand and spoke in a warm voice.

“Uncle went to catch the culprit who deceived Odor people.”

“So what does that have to do with you, Miss? Where did you go a little while ago?”

Bobi’s voice shook like a lantern in the wind. It seemed that her suspicions had grown. It made sense since Bobi had been sneaking around here and there.

‘Now that the case is almost over, I think I can tell Bobi.’

Without mentioning the prophecy, of course. That was an issue she had to be careful about in the future. It wasn’t about suspecting Bobi, but it was such an important matter that she needed to be cautious.

Bobi made a confused expression as she listened to the story.

“Then, how did this happen…?”

Of course, she omitted the prophecy. That was a problem she had to be careful about in the future. It wasn’t about suspecting Bobi, but it was such an important matter that she needed to be cautious.

Bobi made a confused expression as she listened to the story.

“Then, how did this happen…?”

She even closed her eyes and rolled on the floor. It seemed hard for her to believe. The owner, who had been obediently staying at Count Odor’s house, had done something dangerous alone, so it must have been a betrayal.

Ollentia, looking desperate as if she was about to cry, said to Bobi.

“Uh, you shouldn’t cry! I feel too sorry!”

Without crying in the end, Bobi wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and then grabbed Ollentia’s shoulders and shook her.
“Please, please! Whatever it is, let me know too! Did I seem too opposed to it? Did I nag too much? Of course, it’s for Miss, but if you keep hiding things from me because of that, I’ll listen to Miss’s words from now on. So, please don’t do that anymore. Okay?”

Bobi’s desperate feelings were palpable, and it almost made Ollentia sad along with her.

But for a moment, her head spun.

Ollentia grabbed her forehead with one hand and said, “Wait a moment.”

Then, Bobi quickly removed her hand and patted Ollentia.

“Are you still not feeling well?”

“It feels like I have a fever in my forehead.”

“I’ll check!”

Bobi put her hand on Ollentia’s forehead, and she was surprised.

“You have a fever, Miss! Why didn’t you call the doctor? You’ve been suffering in silence!”

Ollentia felt a chill and pulled the blanket up to her neck. She wanted to sleep now.

“I was going to call, even without you telling me.”

Ollentia’s voice kept getting weaker. She felt like the sandbag here was gesturing for her to come.

But she endured it and waited until Bobi came to bring the doctor. She had to describe what the liquid magic item looked like, what scent and taste it had. While the small wound on her neck had healed with her self-healing ability, she couldn’t be sure about the liquid magic item.

A little while later, the doctor arrived.

After listening to the explanation about the liquid magic item, the doctor said in a serious tone, “We need to detoxify it quickly. We can make an antidote of a similar type, so you’ll be okay, but you might feel unwell for a while.”

‘Unwell? How much?’

From that day on, Ollentia slept and woke up repeatedly, sweating all over her body. Her fever rose to 40 degrees, and her whole body ached as if someone had beaten her.

In the midst of it all, she was curious if Ancedo had been caught, so she asked Bobi, who was with her.

“Bobi, did they catch Ancedo? What happened with the case?”

Bobi wiped Ollentia’s sweat with a mournful look on her face and said, “They’re chasing him after he escaped. Don’t worry too much.”

“Oh, I see. That scoundrel.”

But the one who seemed to be in immediate danger now was Ollentia. She was talking to Pietà even in her wavering state.

Pietà used to come in when needed, but now she was teasing Ollentia.

[Melania, are you okay? Everyone seems to be dying.]

‘You usually show up when it’s dangerous, right? But it’s not like you’re helping.’

[I called you, and you opened your eyes! Don’t you remember?]

‘Oh, yes. I remember. I remember. I woke up after being hit by the liquid magic item, right? But after that, you told me to do it myself. I was a little disappointed, you know.’

Even if relying on the power of the gods was a weak human trait, she couldn’t help it.

At that time, Ollentia thought she didn’t have the ability to create a white sphere immediately.

The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)

Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.

The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”

Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!

Warnings:

  • Male pregnancy.
  • Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
  • Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
