How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 57
“Urgh, ack!”
“Oh, hello. I believe this is our first proper greeting. I’m Blake Roman.”
Blake gave Axel a bright smile and a greeting. Axel simply nodded in return.
“I’m Leon Baintz. Sorry for interrupting your pleasant conversation.”
Somehow, the word ‘pleasant’ seemed overly emphasized—but perhaps only Jade noticed. Blake just smiled innocently as if nothing were amiss.
In truth, Blake had already sensed a rather peculiar undercurrent.
Born the second child of a family neither famous nor wealthy, one had to be quick-witted to survive. After all, merely choosing a single doll once had nearly caused a family scandal.
The moment the commander stepped out of the tent, he’d glanced briefly at Jade, exchanged greetings, yet oddly lingered nearby. Jade was still coughing violently.
What had they been discussing again? Ah, right—something about Jade’s partner and suitors.
An involuntary, delighted smile formed at the corner of Blake’s lips. Such an opportunity was not to be missed.
Blake looked up at the undoubtedly one of the most handsome men she’d ever encountered and spoke to him gently.
“No trouble at all. Oh, would you care to walk with me a bit? It wouldn’t hurt for fellow expedition members to get better acquainted—especially since we’ve mostly operated along the western border and have never crossed paths before.”
Jade jerked her head up and frantically shook it, but both Axel and Blake ignored her entirely.
“Hmm… I suppose so. I need to head toward the armory anyway.”
Trapped between them, there was no escape. Jade, wearing an expression of utter despair, trudged along between the two towering figures, her legs dragging limply.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.

She’d thought she knew Axel well—but perhaps she truly knew nothing about him at

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
