“I want to do it!”
As soon as I finished speaking, Sherry raised her hand boldly.
“Sherry!”
“I know Cloud oppa is worried about me. Because of Mother and Father… is that it?”
As the story of the Damon Duke and Duchess, who had already died from zombie attacks, came up, Cloud made a painful expression.
“…I just hope you’re not pushing yourself too hard.”
“Am I pushing myself too hard? Even if I use my ability, do you see me as someone who will waste it recklessly?”
‘Oh.’
Wasn’t it? I thought Cloud, being a person with a strong sense of justice, would actively use his abilities even if I tried to dissuade him.
Zero read my thoughts and looked at me as if I were trash.
“An alleged saint turned out to be like this… Tsk tsk, this is why young people are troublesome these days.”
‘Yes, sir. No, is he a great-grandfather?’
“Kkyaaak!”
‘Are you a zombie? Don’t make weird noises. It’s noisy.’
“Uuuhh…!”
Hehe. Thanks to Zero, I became immune to nonsense like an old man’s nagging.
‘Listen to the end in Korean, Zero. I never intended to encourage Sherry to misuse her abilities.’
Taking advantage of others while sacrificing them for my benefit wasn’t my style.
‘If I have to do such things to survive, I’d rather die.’
Ever since my parents died in an accident, and I saw the true face of the relatives who tried to seize the inheritance through me, I developed extreme aversion to actions that involve sacrificing others for my gain.
‘And Sherry Damon can firmly take the center without me having to step forward.’
After the disturbance caused by the death of her parents settled down a bit, Sherry had already regained stability by staying with Jacqueline in the separate building I provided for the survivors.
Sherry, with her lovely and fresh impression that would suit a pink dress, stated confidently:
“My life only happens once, and I know that best.”
“…”
“Using my abilities a lot to save people, that’s great. But I’m not so dedicated that it ruins my life.”
Sherry Damon was different from the always kind and gentle Sienna.
She was appropriately pragmatic, and thus, she was a woman who knew how to take care of herself.
Sherry Damon was now only twenty years old. If there were no zombie outbreaks, she would be preparing to introduce her fiancé, having reached the age of marriage.
The most radiant and beautiful time in life.
Even though she had to face obstacles like zombies during that time, Sherry confidently declared that she would lead her life in the direction she desired.
“I have no intention of wasting my precious youth just by sleeping. I know that oppa is worried about me, but I’m fine.”
“…Sherry.”
“You know I’m stubborn. Mother and Father were worried because they thought I might become too arrogant… But I don’t want to waste my precious life, so… Don’t stop me from helping Duke.”
Allow me, rather than giving permission, I expressed a firm desire not to stop, and a satisfied smile appeared on my face.
‘You’ll manage on your own.’
Sherry’s ability, the ‘Observer of the Eastern Dawn,’ was not something I considered using unless there was a desperate need for observation.
‘I have the ‘Sage’s Eyes’ and Zero’s Search Window, after all.’
Although the system’s search window had the issue of not working in some areas due to an unidentified dark magic user.
Cloud eventually yielded to his sister’s stubbornness.
“…Fine. Do as you wish.”
“Hehe.”
“But I’ll help too. Honestly… talking about the duty of nobility was just nonsense.”
“That really sounded terrible, Cloud oppa. It was such a lame excuse that it was awkward for anyone to hear.”
In response to Jacqueline’s comment, Cloud forced a wry smile.
“A typical older brother worried about his younger sister.”
“A close relationship like that between siblings is rare, Zero.”
Unicorn siblings, unicorn siblings!
‘When I see this, it feels like the genre I’ve inhabited is indeed fantasy romance.’
Aah, why do I feel like crying? Was it because I did 500 basic sword swings in the morning? So my arm hurts?
It was tough, but I endured it. Crying would lead to moisture loss. While food could be abundantly produced with the quest reward jar, given the circumstances, I couldn’t afford to waste even a drop of water.
Once the situation between Sherry and Cloud was settled, I asked the three of them, including Jacqueline, to find and gather any information related to magic.
“The Duke’s library is very extensive. If there are books related to magic, it would be great if you could read them and compile helpful information in a report format.”
“We should focus on finding information about dark magic.”
Jacqueline’s red pupils sparkled under her glasses. She was delighted with this quest that allowed her to utilize her brain at 200 percent.
“Well, it won’t be easy. The Duke’s collection of books is so vast that even the butler can’t count how many there are.”
Books purchased for the nobility’s cultured reading, but like any other house, there were more unread books than read ones.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
