Atia had some reservations about her words, so she hadn’t prepared properly for what was to come.

Owen, who was carefully exploring the island, called the nearby knights and gave them orders.

“We’ll search the island. Divide into teams, confirm if there are our people on our side, and report immediately if found.”

“Yes, understood!”

“Just in case, don’t be lax in your guard.”

Atia once again walked around the island, clenching her fist.

“No. It’s an order. Don’t follow me.”

“What?!”

“No matter how you think about it, it seems better for you to stay around here.”

Hari and Kesha wore pitiful expressions.

But Atia didn’t care.

“Guard them so they can’t follow.”

Atia told the knight on the ship, who was guarding and keeping his position.

“Yes, understood.”

Hari and Kesha looked embarrassed at the knight’s words.

“No, please… Take us with you.”

“No, you can’t.”

Atia shook her head with a face like a Tibetan fox.

“You stay here too and come out with me.”

?”

Kasus, who got off the ship together, said to Atia.

“Yes?”

“You don’t have to follow the Crown Prince.”

“Oh, well, that’s true.”

Owen, for some reason, needed to quickly confirm the authenticity of the prophecy, so he personally traveled to the island.

‘And brought me to this island.’

As expected, Atia, Kasus, Zen, Kesha, and Hari all accompanied him on the way.

‘Since I followed this far, it should be okay not to go inside with Owen.’

“It seems like we don’t have to go inside, seeing that Her Highness didn’t mention going together.”

But for some reason, Atia felt that Owen would cause trouble here.

“No, wait. I think we should go and see.”

“What?”

Seeing Atia’s changed answer, Kasus raised an eyebrow.

‘If Owen dies, undoing the dark magic will become more complicated.’

Whatever happened, roasting Owen and undoing the dark magic was the fastest way at the moment.

That’s why he had come all the way from the northern capital to this remote island.

“We have to follow.”

Looking at Owen’s party, who were dividing into groups and entering the island in the distance, Atia said.

“Confirm if our crew members are alive.”

“That was checked by the other team who went first.”

Kasus answered.

After hearing Atia’s opinion, the knights from Wellington took the lead. As they walked through the beach and stepped into the grassy area, the unique scent of the island stimulated their noses.

The feeling of the ground under their feet was good. It felt like hiking and was a refreshing sensation.

The knights pushed through the thickening fog.

Creak, creak.
As they entered the island, more and more mysterious bird sounds were heard, and various plants and animals became visible.

Atia, Kasus, and his knights followed Owen’s footsteps as he went ahead.

Although captivating landscapes unfolded everywhere, chasing Owen’s party took precedence.

Squeak, squeak, squeak.

As they ventured deeper into the forest, bird sounds became louder.

When Atia, sharpening her senses and vision, took another step, screams soon erupted from a distance.

“!”

A flock of birds flew into the sky. It was clear that something had happened.

“Did you hear that just now? The sound from over there?”

An uneasy feeling crept in.

They needed to know what was happening. Atia, along with Kasus and the knights, ran toward the direction of the sound.

Breaking through the bushes, they arrived at a giant pit.

Owen’s knights were around it.

“What’s going on?”

“The Highness has fallen into the pit.”

“What?”

Looking down into the pit, Atia saw Owen, along with a few knights, trapped inside.

It was a deep pit designed so that a person couldn’t climb out alone.

“Your Highness!”

Atia shouted down to Owen.

The depth seemed to be more than eight meters. It was impossible to climb up without help.

“There’s something like this here that we didn’t know about and fell in.”

One of Owen’s knights outside the pit said, brushing off the dirt on his hands.

“No, why did you step on that?”

Underneath the pit, there were also knights who hurt their legs when they fell.

With a serious face, Atia looked for something suitable to throw down.

“Is there no rope to pull him up?”

“We don’t have any.”

“Well, I guess you couldn’t have expected such a big pit on the island.”

Judging by the size of the pit, it seemed like they were trying to catch a large animal.

Looking down into the pit, Atia shouted to Owen.

“Your Highness, can you hear me? Why are you there?”

Owen couldn’t say anything and just looked up at Atia.

“Do you believe me now?”

“…….”

He wasn’t acting like the imperial crown prince. Owen felt embarrassed, but the situation required help from others.

Reading his mind, Atia grinned and said, “Wait. I’ll get you out soon.”

While searching around, Atia, who was looking for something, found a tall tree about to fall.

Looking down at the tree, Atia pulled out the sword from Kasus’s waist instead.

“Let me borrow this.”

Sssht.

Without giving Kasus a chance to object, Atia forcefully cut off the less chopped part attached to the bottom of the tree.

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did

“How dare you!”

“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never accept that.”

“I will never let you return to him.”

“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”

“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”

“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!

At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.

Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.

The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.

Synopsis:

Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?

The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
