That day onwards, there were no special incidents, and it was peaceful.

I spent the day as I always had, and the ambassador would watch over my training briefly once every two days.

As time passed, winter arrived, and I received a letter from my master.

To Ha Hyun.

He had said we would arrive at the volcano in 40 days, but something has come up, and it seems it will be slightly delayed. I apologize for not keeping my promise.

I have separately asked your Ambassador’s adept elder, so listen well to what she says. Don’t skip meals, and make sure to sleep not too late.

I will bring gifts when I return.

“Hmm.”

The letter was quite short. It didn’t even state the reason for the delay. I tilted my head at first, but after a moment’s thought, I seemed to know why.

‘It’s about time to come.’

My priest.

It’s the presumed protagonist of this unknown martial arts novel.

I don’t remember the exact time in the original work, but it is highly likely that it’s around now. Because there’s the issue of age.

‘…Probably the same age as me or one or two years older. Even if he’s younger than me, no matter how talented, instead of becoming the master’s disciple, they will likely wait a little and have him enter as a thirdgeneration disciple.’

The appropriate age to learn martial arts is in the early teens.

In prestigious families, as soon as a child is born, they perform the haircutting and bonewashing ritual to make the body suitable for martial arts.

So, even if they learn martial arts before their teenage years, they won’t send their children to a sect, especially if they have the means to perform the ritual.

Therefore, when the sect takes in disciples, they usually choose children between 10 and 15 who have the basic physical frame but not yet fully developed.

‘Fifteen is actually the maximum.’

Growth is fast, so sometimes the skeleton is fully formed at that time.

‘If the talent is something that the sect wouldn’t want to miss, but the age is a few years too much for admitting as a thirdgeneration disciple… Then it would be hard to make an exception like me.’

Since the priest hasn’t even learned martial arts yet, it’s natural that it takes more time to bring him over, rather than quickly moving with lightness skills alone.

Even if it’s a short time, it seems they will arrive at the volcano after the new year, and I’ll be 13 years old next year.

‘So if he’s one or two years older, seventeen or fifteen to meet the age requirements for entry. I have an advantage as a reincarnator, and if he’s the protagonist, he’ll naturally have talent, so that condition will pass too.’

Well, that’s it.

Holding the sword, I sighed lightly.

The original ‘Ha Hyun’ was a villain for the protagonist’s mental growth. He witnessed his master’s loss and another person’s suicide, causing psychological pain and shock, a villain of the early part.

‘But since the person in the head has changed, that won’t happen.’

I was planning to get along fairly ordinarily as disciple brothers. That way, after receiving the Tao, I could take a step closer to becoming a healthy adult.

Well, wouldn’t we get along fine if he doesn’t torment me?

(This is a time separator.)

As expected, my master returned after the New Year.

“Sister, Sister, apparently master brought back a boy.”

And this part was also as expected.

After the last incident, Ryu, who had become rather close to me, came to me and whispered.

I guessed already, but hearing it was still a first, so I tilted my head and asked.

“Really?”

“Yeah, didn’t you hear? You just met Master.”

“He didn’t say that.”

Maybe because it’s too late to introduce someone now.

Master arrived when the sun was already setting. It was already dark after he finished reporting to the headmaster and briefly came to see my face.

“I see.”

My answer made Ryu ponder for a moment, and then he cautiously opened his mouth again.

“In fact, it was like this when he brought you too. In this case, there’s a possibility that the boy will also become master’s disciple.”

“Hmm.”
I just shrugged my shoulders. There was nothing significant about it now, since I had already guessed that it would happen.

Sahyeong, who didn’t seem to expect such a reaction from me, spoke again, momentarily baffled.

“……Heunah, might the Four Hundred take on a new disciple?”

“Yes, then I will have a disciple too.”

“No, it’s not certain yet, so I don’t know yet…….”

Trailing off and tilting his head, Sahyeong soon scrutinized my expression and asked.

“That, what is it? Worry? A sense of crisis? You don’t feel anything like that?”

“Suddenly?”

“You were being taught by the Four Hundred alone, weren’t you? But if he takes on another disciple, you won’t be able to do as you have been.”

I laughed, deflated.

I am walking around just fine now, but strictly speaking, it hasn’t even been a year since my family was annihilated, and I was left alone. A typical 13yearold would still be in a mentally unstable state.

The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)

Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.

The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”

Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!

Warnings:

  • Male pregnancy.
  • Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
  • Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
