“If I can.”
Though the possibility was almost none, Rustica still touched the wornout door handle once more.
“This is my home.”
“Where you live is your home.”
She glanced at Aldwin and then turned her gaze back to the door handle.
Arguing against the imperial decree of the great magician and the founder of Caletta, who was akin to a god, might be a waste of time.
Who knows who might come after Aldwin Rochester, or perhaps Rustica might be forcibly dragged to the Caletta Empire.
Considering various matters, making decisions, tidying up the small cabin, and notifying the surroundings took a very long time.
So the sun was already setting.
“Let’s go.”
If the sun is setting in the western end of Momentum, dawn will be breaking in the Caletta Empire’s capital, Catat.
Arriving at dawn when people’s eyes were sparse was rather comfortable for Rustica. Nothing was as annoying as attention.
Even though it was a journey that took more than three months by the fastest route, Aldwin Rochester had a teleportation magic stone specially bestowed by the emperor.
It was a magic stone that could move both of them from Momentum to Catat Palace at once.
‘Our great emperor has given something very expensive. In other words, the situation is that urgent?’
Smart enough like Rustica Gennes, once loyal, and yet easily disposable, it was urgent enough to push into the new empire beyond the barrier.
She put on her hood and grabbed Aldwin’s arm. The view in front of her eyes brightened for a moment and then flickered. The space changed instantly, and a completely different air shook her hood.
“Sir Rochester.”
“Good work.”
Praise be to God, blessings to our great Emperor!
Everyone who comes to Catat Palace is overwhelmed by the aweinspiring wonder and praises the emperor without knowing it.
Aldwin Rochester always worked here, so he just nodded to the knight guarding the gate, but Rustica, who returned to Catat after four years, looked around and turned around. Then she was astonished.
“Isn’t it enormous?”
“……Is that just opened?”
The word “opened” was too weak to describe this situation. The huge wall that spread beyond the gates of Catat was not merely opened.
From the cold north to the warm east, the gigantic barrier that could not be crossed, and for which there was no way to deal with, was itself a gruesome front line.
But now, doors that opened on both sides of the gigantic barrier that seemed to touch the sky had appeared. The large, thick doors were wide open towards the empire, as if inviting the imperial citizens. It was like a taunt.
“Is that just opened?”
Pointing at the huge gate with her thumb, Rustica was stunned. At that size, ten carriages could run side by side and pass easily.
“So it’s you whom His Majesty has chosen for this emergency situation, Lu. It’s an honor.”
The honor was something that would make a passing dog laugh, Lu thought, holding back her words as she looked again at the door that had appeared in the barrier and then turned around.
In Catat, the emperor’s fanatics were everywhere, spread out and trampled. Care had to be taken with words here.
“Let’s go. His Majesty is waiting.”
Already in Catat, the sun was faintly rising, and the grand and majestic imperial palace was preparing for another day, glaring at the barrier.
The atmosphere of the vertically stretched imperial palace was unusual. Familiar dignitaries were scurrying about in the distance, and the imperial guards guarding various places were also on high alert.
Of course, it was only natural since a door had opened in the barrier.
‘I must have fainted too.’
Of course, after fainting once, she would have thought it was an opportunity.
How many knights were captured by the marbles during the battle and dragged inside? Ah, of course, the emperor must have designated her, considering she thought so. Lu, who was dressed quite shabbily for entering a vast augmented reality, kept thinking about what was beyond the barrier.
“Over here.”
“I know that.”
Aldwin guided her kindly, as he would the noble young ladies, but Lu responded curtly.
She frequented this place like eating a meal. They were now heading towards augmented reality. Today’s imperial guards, whose turn it was to guard the entrance of augmented reality, did not even glance at the two and kept their eyes straight ahead.
No one announced who had come inside, but the door engraved with the empire’s sacred emblem silently opened wide, and the whiteuniformed guard captain came out.
“Duke Rochester. Knight Gennes. Enter.”
Lu and Aldwin quickly followed the guard captain, and the heavy door closed firmly behind them.
The very high ceiling of augmented reality was dark in wall color, with banners hanging from every pillar.
From the massive window opened behind the throne at the very top, dazzling light poured in, filling the entire augmented reality and vividly displaying the emperor’s majesty.
“Your Majesty.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
