How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 46
Fortunately, Rainer grew up unbroken.
When Darian, greatly weakened by illness, had to relinquish the throne, he summoned Axel and said that Rainer was far more suited to it.
“You have no interest in anything.”
Axel agreed and then vanished to avoid pointless strife.
However, Regina did not agree. Already half-mad, she could acknowledge no king except Darian—or someone who resembled Darian, like Axel. She even borrowed the power of House Sabeli to try to kill Rainer.
Sometimes the pettiest reasons summon blood.
In the end, Darian died, and a war of succession broke out without the consent of those involved. The nobles of El Sion split into two factions and began to fight.
Finally, when the cornered Rainer fled to a certain fortress, Axel suddenly appeared, led the knights of the north, seized the capital Sienna, beheaded Marquis Sabeli after months of siege, and rescued Rainer.
Despite such merit, he showed no greed for the throne. He proclaimed Darian’s last will to the world and enthroned Rainer as king.
Afterward, he erased his name from every record except one and disappeared into the Athanase Forest.
Rainer, who had witnessed the entire process, never once distrusted Axel.
“When have I ever smiled so warmly?”
“You did! It felt like, ‘Ah, finally someone else is taking the work off my hands—how refreshing.’”
Axel let out a short laugh.
“That is rather convincing. Still, you must correct that way of speaking.”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”

Goodness at this point she’d ball her eyes in relief of seeing Axel
Axel is already secretly devoted to her. He doesn’t want to label his feelings that might inconvenience her. She on the other hand clearly understood her feelings and drew a line. Yet can’t keep those feelings in check
