How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 98
For Jade, whose to-do list was piled sky-high, five days were truly precious. There were plenty of ways to spend that time.
Of course, the wisest choice would be to go to Broen Castle and check in person whether the coming-of-age ceremony preparations were progressing well. After all, even if Bernard sent letters regularly, seeing it with her own eyes would be far better.
Yet Jade planned to dedicate every spare moment she gained entirely to Axel.
They had spent a long time together in the Athanase Forest and with the Punitive Expedition, but in the forest they hadn’t known each other’s feelings, and during the expedition they’d deliberately avoided acknowledging them—so looking back now, there were many regrets.
Five days… It’d be nice to rent a small villa outside the city for a day or two. Of course, we won’t have any improper thoughts—we’ll just hold hands, very wholesomely…. Come to think of it, where did I leave Attila? There are so many perfect places for horseback riding.
Even as she let her imagination soar, the list of names kept growing.
“…Lachlan, Nate, Edith, Carolia, Joya too. Just off the top of my head, that’s already this many. I could easily finish over ten invitations at once.”
“Wouldn’t it seem strange to hand out my coming-of-age invitations at someone else’s party?”
“Lysen wouldn’t care about that sort of thing at all. In fact, it’s happened before—he actually stood right in the middle of a party shouting that everyone must absolutely attend the event they’d been invited to.”
“He really is a strange one,” Velita said, crossing her arms.
“But I have absolutely no connection with Moretti whatsoever.”
“That’s already been taken care of by me. Honestly… I couldn’t just leave someone like you alone—someone who won’t properly enjoy herself and instead crawls willingly into a pit of misery… Marriage is utter madness.”
“Weren’t you happily dating Sir Mitchell?”
Velita’s expression turned serious. Jade quickly shut her mouth.
“Come on, Jade! This will be my first time at Moretti’s party too. They say it’s always packed with people, all with different motives—not everyone’s there just to meet a man like you and me! It’s a place you can attend even without that goal, and it’s incredibly hard to get invited! This is our chance!”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
