“…….”
“Why?”
Bercheria swallowed, then answered.
“I took the wrong medication.”
“Medication?”
If the strange being in front of her had been just a man, or just a lizard, Bercheria wouldn’t have even bothered with him.
But the combination of the two strangely made him impossible to ignore.
“The cookie had medication in it.”
Velopai rolled his eyes, lost in thought.
“Did you eat the whole cookie? How did it taste?”
“…….”
“Tell me, it’s important.”
“About half. It didn’t taste any different from a regular cookie.”
“And what happened after you ate it?”
Bercheria took a deep breath.
Since everyone else living in the castle had also seen this part, it seemed okay to talk about it.
“I felt like I was going to explode from the heat, and then the weather changed to match my feelings. It rained, thunder and lightning struck, hail fell.”
Just thinking about that day was the worst.
It was also painful.
“Ahh.”
Velopai nodded with a meaningful look on his face.
“So that’s it.”
“That’s it?”
“Come closer. I’ll tell you how to regain your strength.”
“Who are you to say that’s possible?”
“It is possible.”
“Lies.”
“Ha. What do you take me for?”
Bercheria fixed her round eyes on the man-lizard.
“Can I really regain my strength?”
“Yes.”
He paused for a moment before adding,
“I’m not the one restoring your strength. I’m just giving you a crucial hint.”
Bercheria fell into serious contemplation.
If there was a way to regain her strength, she was willing to do whatever it took.
But should she trust this lizard?
“I don’t have time, you know? Hurry!”
As the distance closed, Velopai spoke softly, audible only to her.
“It’s psychological.”
“….What?”
“It’s the nature of the drug. It sends you into a rampage, breaks you down, making you too afraid to use that power ever again.”
“No.”
Bercheria shook her head, filled with conviction.
“That’s not it. I’ve clearly confirmed that I have no strength within me. It’s not just something I’m saying.”
“Fine. You might be right. But just try doing as I say first. Then we’ll know who’s right.”
“……What’s the method?”
Velopai beckoned Bercheria even closer to him.
And then he whispered in her ear.
Lakrahan followed Loren to a cliff near the sea.
Scattered about were nests made by various kinds of birds.
“Bercheria’s nest is right up there.”
Loren pointed to his lips and passionately explained, but nothing was visible to Lakrahan’s eyes.
It might have been due to the dawn light that made the surroundings especially dim, but the problem was that condors weren’t the only animals building nests on the steep cliff.
The idea of finding Bercheria’s location by observing dozens of nests from below in the first place was implausible.
“How on earth do we find Bercheria?”
Loren and Lakrahan stood still on the beach, continuously looking up at the cliff above.
“Do you see anything?”
Lakrahan tried to focus a little more to examine the top.
However, all that he could see was pitch black.
“Hmm. There are many large nests over there, so let’s get a bit closer.”
Lakrahan urged his horse to move towards the wall that seemed the steepest.
Although his field of view widened a bit, the bird nests still all looked similar.
“Ha.”
He pressed his still-throbbing temples.
If Bercheria is up there, how on earth do we bring her down?
Do we need wings or something?
Lakrahan dismounted with a sigh.
He met Loren’s gaze, who was watching from the beach, and looked up at the nests once more.
“Isn’t that Bercheria over there?”
Despite Loren’s shout, Lakrahan shook his head.
“It’s too dark; I still can’t see anything.”
Lakrahan took off his cloak and placed it on the horse.
Ignoring his white breaths that seeped out, he felt he had to go up and check, either to rescue Bercheria or at least confirm her presence.
Then, in a moment when he glanced up again,
A small object suddenly sprang out from a nest and started plummeting straight towards the ground.
“……!”
This time, it was certain.
Anyone could see that a blonde woman had leapt from the nest.
At the sight, Lakrahan also exclaimed,
“Bercheria!”
Loren, who was a little distance away, was also shocked.
“Lakrahan! There’s Bercheria!”
As Loren said, if it were raining or snowing while she was falling, he wouldn’t have to do anything.
But if Bercheria were to plunge straight into the sea without any of that…
It was something he couldn’t even imagine.
The sight of Bercheria appearing in the air and falling towards the ground.
The moment he witnessed the blonde hair fluttering in mid-air, Lakrahan felt as if his heart had dropped.
The emotions he had felt back then, when she had jumped out the window leaving him in the room, came flooding back.
Just then, a massive wave surged in.
There was no time to think.
Below was the wave; above was Bercheria.
Moving at a stunning speed toward each other, their shadows precisely met at the midpoint, and her body was swallowed by the wave.
“Damn it.”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
