‘Zik Oppa, right? Surprised me for no reason.’
Lily looked at Zikberth, who was holding her arm, and swept her chest.
She didn’t know how long he had been behind her, but it was Zikberth.
His usually calm green eyes were different this time. They were sharper, as if he was angry.
She just heard the communication. Lily thought so.
Perhaps Zikberth had heard all of Professor Rumblela’s communication content from a closer place than herself.
Zikberth had a hobby of turning into a small animal and wandering around the academy.
‘Shush.’
Zikberth raised his index finger to his lips. It meant to be quiet.
‘Okay.’
As Lily nodded, Zikberth transformed into a red fox and swiftly entered the bushes in front of him.
Rumblela, who was peering out the window to identify the source of the rustling sound, discovered the moving bushes.
From within the concealed bushes, Zikberth gradually disappeared.
“…….,”
Rumblela, staring intently at the bushes, grabbed the window loop and spoke into the communication device.
“No. It was the sound of an animal moving.”
Thunk.
At the sound of the window closing, Lily finally exhaled the breath she had been holding.
It was almost a disaster.
No, maybe the real crisis is about to happen. Lily’s light blue eyes flashed with seriousness.
‘It seems like there’s an enemy to Riche unni.’
“U-um. Shall we go somewhere else and not cause trouble here? It’s interference with business.”
Fortunately, Philip’s desperate mediation worked. The four of them moved to another place under the gaze of the people.
Riche, who was concerned about the sofa Deon had pierced, tried to take out money from her wallet to compensate before leaving.
“Um, I’m sorry about the sofa. Here’s compensation…?”
“Here.”
Deon, who took Riche’s wallet, placed his money on the counter. The employee was astonished and clapped his hands at the amount, which exceeded the weekly sales.
“Commander Rodwick! This is too much…!”
“It’s okay. If you think it’s not enough, ask for more.”
“Even so, this is…”
Although the employee tried to stop him, Deon had already walked to the cafe door, holding the handle.
He sent a sharp gaze to Morgan, who was standing behind Riche.
“What are you doing instead of coming out?”
“I’ll go out.”
Riche admired Morgan, who was smiling fearlessly in front of the angry Deon.
Winners indeed have a different appearance.
As Morgan followed Deon outside, Riche apologized to the employee again and then went outside to find the three who had already left.
She could see Deon and Morgan facing each other next to the building’s wall. Deon’s atmosphere was still stern.
“Philip!”
“Ah, miss!”
Riche called Philip, who was around Deon. Philip, about to go to Riche, took a step back, swallowing tears at Deon’s sword blocking his way.
‘What are those two really doing…’
Riche stared at Deon with displeasure, but Deon had his fiery red eyes fixed on Morgan’s calm expression.
“Explain. Morgan Dial. Are you dating my sister?”
“No.”
“Not at all?”
Deon’s mood twisted even more at those words. Did that mean he and Riche were holding hands intimately?
It was even more unforgivable than dating.
“I was sure.”
Someone held Deon’s arm. It was Riche.
“Examiners are not allowed to have private conversations with participants… right?”
Deon, looking at Riche’s clear silver eyes using belated formal language, slightly narrowed his eyes.
Another scolding with her eyes.
“If you’re going to have a private conversation with Morgan, talk to me first… okay?”
“…”
Deon looked at the handcuffs shaking between Riche’s grabbed wrist.
Tsk. Deon moved the held arm.
He inserted his thumb between Riche’s wrist and the handcuffs, then wielded his sword in that space. The neatly cut handcuffs rolled off Riche’s wrist to the floor.
[As expected of Derkedion! Shouldn’t you have asked your brother from the beginning instead of Morgan Dial?]Pythons chuckled with satisfaction.
“T-Thank you.”
But still, it’s Derkedion, my brother. He didn’t respond to my words.
Even now.
As soon as the task of cutting the handcuffs was finished, he turned his gaze to Morgan.
“…”
Morgan, who had just admired Deon’s skills, looked at Deon.
Deon asked in a voice devoid of kindness, “Morgan Dial. Did you receive the qualification certificate?”
“No. Not yet.”
“Good. Then follow me.”
“Yes?”
“I’ll let you see the preliminary task now.”
“…Ah. To defeat the commander…?”
“Don’t want to?”
“No.”
Derkedion had even thought about using my ability.
It was a more rational way than I had imagined.
When Morgan nodded, Deon led the way. And as he walked, he glanced at Riche. An eye saying, ‘That’s it.’
‘Why would he talk to Morgan even under the pretext of a task? What’s this?’
Although it was awkward, Riche followed Deon.
The group entered a nearby building.
It was one of the training grounds available for the Cresselphon participants and examiners scattered throughout the city.
“Let’s start the preliminary task now.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
