That there could be someone to suck out the poison, look at her with worried eyes, and wait for her to wake up from sleep.
Unable to bear the awkwardness, she hastily concluded that he was just a person who treated everyone that way.
That Lakrahan treated everyone, not just me, like that.
But only after seeing the many scars on his body did she realize that wasn’t the case.
‘While others call me a war hero, they have no interest in what I’ve been through to win that war.’
Lakrahan knew it all along.
That Bercheria was someone who carried the same scars as he did.
Only those who understand the depth of each other’s wounds can provide solace.
“Huu.”
Bercheria paused for a moment and closed her eyes.
The Absolute God wanted to control all beings in the world when creating it.
However, when humans began to make their own choices according to their will, they began to escape her control.
People think that the god sent down minor deities like Bercheria or Velorphae to help humans, but that’s not the case.
The Absolute God sent them to the world to make humans, who had escaped her control, believe in deities once again.
Bercheria had been sent to this land and had been guarding humans for hundreds of years.
“You could have helped.”
Dense golden eyelashes lifted, and the pupils behind them were directed towards the sky.
“You had no interest in me when humans were taking away divine powers and erasing the memories of the Awakened, right?”
The Absolute God left Bercheria to suffer.
She simply watched her as she writhed in agony.
Even as human selfishness took root in the place Bercheria had left, leading to wars and deaths, and even as good people like Lakrahan suffered and were in pain, the deity did nothing.
“A marriage? You command me to marry a prince from another empire? You remained inactive while countless people were losing their lives, and yet you move just for my marriage?”
Bercheria couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief.
“Watch how I do it.”
She moved towards where Muha was.
The Absolute God can’t read the thoughts of humans who don’t believe in deities.
It’s only natural.
“While I’m in a human body, you can’t find out anything about me anyway.”
Bercheria deliberately made her footsteps heard as she walked confidently.
The emotions that had been suppressing her heart somehow seemed to evaporate little by little.
“Muha!”
The tower was now out of sight, but Muha would probably still be nearby.
“Where is Muha?”
‘I won’t die. I may get hurt, but I have a body that won’t die.’
So, let’s not worry in advance. This is not the tower.
As she got closer to her destination, Bercheria felt her confidence surging even more.
‘Don’t worry. Even if I run into my mother here, it’s fine. I’m no longer a child trapped in the tower.’
Kwaeek.
From nearby, the cry of Muha could be heard.
Over the tense head of Bercheria, a dark shadow loomed.
“……!”
When she craned her neck to look up, she saw the wings of Muha slowly approaching as if covering the sky.
“Muha!”
As the giant condor Muha changed its angle, she saw a stranger holding onto Muha’s fluttering feathers.
The muscular man with dusky skin looked down at Bercheria, sweeping his long, swaying hair out of the way.
[Star icon] Adorned in splendid attire, Gerard gracefully mounted the white horse, the pride of the Feriat royal family.“Whoa.”
Gently patting the back of the white horse, a privilege only those with the highest authority in the royal family could have, he looked around.
Opposite him sat Captain Dylan of the guards on a jet-black horse, along with Grubi, who rode a similar horse.
‘How beautiful.’
Grubi, freshly out of the underground dungeon, dressed in clean clothes, and having eaten quality food, shone beautifully like the sun, despite it being evening.
Even those who had initially kept their distance and scoffed at him were now taking a second look, captivated by the young boy’s appearance.
So it wasn’t nonsense to say that innate beauty could not be hidden, no matter what one did.
“Dylan.”
At Gerard’s call, Dylan, who had been scrutinizing the people passing through the portal, quickly turned his head.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Gerard twisted his brown lips upward.
“You see, I keep getting this feeling that the Bercheria rumored to be in the North may not be the real one.”
Dylan, who was among the more perceptive of Gerard’s confidants, was confused, unable to grasp Gerard’s words at once.
“Think about it. The ignorant people in the North probably saw blonde hair and golden eyes and assumed that any woman up there must be Bercheria. In reality, such features are more common than one might think.”
As Gerard glanced at Grubi, Dylan finally let out an “Ah,” a sigh of realization.
“Consider this. If Bercheria is in Feriat, why hasn’t the Guardian Spirit returned?”
“That’s obviously because…….”
Dylan narrowed his eyes sharply.
“That woman must not be Bercheria.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
