The author had wanted Atia to struggle in the swamp of misery.
That’s why they didn’t even tell her why she had to die. They only told her that she was suffering from an unknown disease that no one could cure.
‘I need to reduce the time spent on useless things to make the best use of my remaining time.’
Still, Atia didn’t give up hope.
‘A healthy mind dwells in a healthy body!’
It’s better to do something, anything, than to simply wait for death.
Moving around and raising her basal metabolic rate and muscle strength would be better than staying idle in the room.
In this life, she would do the things she couldn’t finish in her previous life, and get Hades to teach her his secrets before she died.
Then she could have the body she had always desired in her next life.
Knowing the recipe, wouldn’t she be able to cook something?

‘I want to be reborn like Hades.’
Atia tossed the bloodstained handkerchief into a corner.
She gazed at the falling white snow outside the window for a moment, then fell asleep as she was.
[This is the time separator]It was when Casus was walking down the corridor after leaving his office.
His father, Hades, happened to be coming out for dinner.
“I found you.”
Casus bowed his head in greeting.
He did not call Hades ‘father’.
It felt awkward to call him ‘father’ in front of him. He had never called his father ‘father’ since he was very young.

Precisely, since his mother died.
“Where have you been?”
“I was with that girl.”
“…….”
“She asked how I tamed Cerberus, so I showed her directly.”
“Secret?”
“Seeing it directly, I could understand why it was tamed.”
Hades had a flush on his face.
Casus couldn’t believe it.
It was because he had never seen such a bright expression on Hades’ face before.

“You should not trust that woman.”
“Are you saying she used black magic?”
“It could be.”
“It wasn’t black magic. That was,”
Hades raised his eyebrows as he recalled the previous event.
“a skill imbued with years of experience. A skill that cannot be mastered without undergoing professional training over a long period.”
“….Yes?”
“It seemed like a medical technique but also not. It’s really hard to tell.”
“She’s only twentyone. What can she do?”
“At that age, I had defeated the empire. It’s not impossible.”

“…….”
Casus closed his eyes tightly as if he couldn’t communicate with him.
“Do you want to have dinner together?”
“I have something to do, so I should go first.”
It was Duke’s residence he visited after a long journey.
Even though he was busy, he thought he would always have meals together.
Unable to find any adorable aspect in his son, Hades shook his head.
[This is the time separator]Casus went to Atia from there.
Atia, who had been sound asleep in the room, woke up at the sound of the harsh knock on the door.

‘Ah, such a noisy morning call. I was sleeping so well. Who is it?’
When Atia, with her drowsy face, yawned and opened the door, an unexpected person was waiting.
Black hair, a large stature, sharp eyes,
The man looking down at her with those eyes.
It was Casus.
No, why are you here?
There was no content in the original novel where Casus visited Atia’s room.
But he’s standing at the door……?
“What on earth did you do to my father?”
“Excuse me?”
“He asked what I had done to his father.”

“What do you mean? Could you please elaborate, Duke?”
Atia blinked her eyes as she brushed her silver hair smoothly.
“You were alone with my father in the room.”
“Yes, so?”
At her brazen response, Casus chuckled.
“What did you do in that room?”
“What could I have done? I just answered a question your father was curious about.”
Seemingly irritated by the term ‘father’ coming out of Atia’s mouth, Casus repeatedly brushed his hair back, furrowing his brow.
How dare she call him ‘father’ when she refers to her own husband as ‘Duke.’
Atia felt a strangely chilly sensation from Casus’ hand, nervously brushing his jetblack hair.

He was a man whose impression was so cold it was as if he could pull out a knife from his bosom at any moment.
“If by any chance, you pull some trick, not only you but the Harad family will not be safe.”
“I wish you’d been a bit more filial to him regularly. Father, his body was all stiff.”
“What?”
Casus was confused.
What the hell was this woman saying?
“Did you… touch my father’s body?”
“Yes, he wanted me to.”
“…What?”
What’s this about him wanting it?

“Don’t you feel sorry for my father?”
In a moment, Atia frowned and continued with her head down.
“He only has two sons, and after a long time, he came home, and what are his sons doing? One of them doesn’t even come out of the room, and the other one.”
Casus clenched his teeth tightly. It was a clear provocation.
“So, you were a spy for the Harad family. I thought you were strange from the beginning.”
“I simply showed you my abilities because Father was curious about the secret to taming Cerberus, Duke.”
“I’m different from my father.”
“Yes, I’m sure you’re very different.”
“Even if my father doesn’t know, I won’t fall for such a lowly temptation. I don’t know what tricks you pulled, but you will definitely pay for it.”
‘Wow, look at him showing off. He’s just like his younger brother!’

Atia listened to his words with her eyes narrowed.
When the second, Leo grows up, wouldn’t he be just like that? His body is bigger, but the things they do are almost similar, right?
“Duke, are you not curious about that secret? Would you like to give it a try?”
Bang!
Casus left, closing the door with a threatening gesture and a loud sound.
“Ah, he’s really hottempered.”
Atia yawned again and stretched.
She didn’t need Casus anyway.
Heidegger was a step above Casus.
Maintaining such a magnificent physique even at the age of fifty was evidence of tremendous effort. And of course, one couldn’t ignore his natural talent.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
