Liche nodded.
Since you had to chant spells to use magic.
Pythonus, as if expected, clicked his tongue.
“What if you use what I created to squeeze the power of the stars with just one ability?”
“… What are you talking about?”
“What am I talking about?”
Pythonus spoke with a growl.
How many times had he surprised his contractee? Now, saying these things was getting tiresome.
“You’re a monster.”

“Ian Dwayne, please follow me.”
The class had ended. Ian rose from his seat to follow Professor Rumble, who had left the classroom first.
Jickbert, a classmate of Ian, grabbed his shoulder.
“Why? Jickbert.”
“Let’s go together.”
Together? Was he talking about the dormitory?
Ian turned his head toward the classroom door where students were leaving.
Each time students left, there was a commotion, and it seemed that Professor Rumble was standing in the hallway.
“Sorry. Professor Rumble asked me to bring you.”
“Okay.”
Jickbert nodded his head.
Then, he transformed into a small red-furred meadow vole and entered Ian’s shirt pocket.
“Jickbert?”
In the meantime, Rumble entered the now-empty classroom with Ian and Jickbert and urged them once again.
“Ian Dwayne, student.”
“Yes, I’ll go.”
Ian quickly followed.
Dean’s Office
Looking at the nameplate on the stopped door, the door opened from the inside.
Six people were gathered there.
‘Ah, Liche.’
Ian’s eyes first found Liche. His smile unconsciously spread on his face when he saw her waving slightly.
Next to Liche, sitting on the sofa, was Blake. The dean, Professor of Magic, and two other professors filled the surroundings.
“Ooh, Ian Dwayne has come.”
The dean greeted Ian warmly.
Ian greeted the dean, exchanged glances with Blake, who was sitting expressionless, and then sat down.
Although he was concerned about Jickbert in his pocket, he had no chance to ask what he was doing.
Even when he lightly touched the pocket with his fingertips, Jickbert showed no reaction. It seems like he plans to stay there for a while.
Inevitably, Ian followed Rumble.

Inevitably, Ian followed Rumble.
Surely, you won’t use your ability in front of your daughter.
“It’s okay.”
Blake nodded lightly.
The dean, conscious of Blake, wore a sterner expression than usual and spoke to Rumble.
“Professor Rumble, from now on, don’t talk about the abilities of Triarche students.”
However, Rumble, standing tall, with violet eyes not facing the dean, opened her mouth, smiling at Ian, looking at Liche.
“Ian Dwayne, student.”
“Yes?”
“Did you really use your ability?”
At her question, the dean’s office fell silent for a moment.
Sensing the stifling atmosphere, the dean laughed and approached Rumble.
“Professor, this is also a place where Your Excellency is present. Did Ian Dwayne lie? Such suspicions.”
“The characteristic of an ability user from the Gerwer Ducal Family is golden eyes that see through everything. It’s not well known, but when using the ability, the eyes glow faintly as if they were burning. However, Ian Dwayne’s eyes have never shone.”
At that, the professors looked at Ian, then at Liche, and noticed Blake’s expression.
Oh no, it’s starting again.
‘Please spare me this time, Rumble…!’
The dean wanted to cry. Really stubborn.
Whether Ian Dwayne uses the ability or not, he is the genius who will illuminate Hwangnip Academy as a Triarche, and his father is Blake Roadwick.
‘Roadwick is an assassin family…!’
Although Blake said he would end the lineage in his generation.
It was still Blake’s era. In other words.
‘I’m going to die!’
While lying on a warm bed, my appearance, unable to open my eyes even in the morning sunlight coming through the window, flowed through the dean’s mind day by day, and the next day, the day after, the day after that, …
Even during that time, Rumble was talking to Ian with a stern attitude, as if a needle might go in.
“But, Professor Rumble. Just because we’re ability users doesn’t mean the same phenomenon happens. As you mentioned, my father’s eyes shine when he uses his ability, but mine doesn’t.”
“Then try using your ability on me. I’ll judge after experiencing it.”
Ian answered nonchalantly, but it didn’t go over well with Professor Rumble.
The atmosphere gradually hardened. Professors even stood up awkwardly, indicating they were going to stop her. Blake, who was about to step forward,
“Um, Professor Rumble.”
Liche, who had been silent until now, opened her mouth.
Male lead Asks for a Divorce Every Day
It’s not often you come across a plot like this in the female-dominant genre — make sure to check it out!
This is a novel I’m planning to reread as well.
The male lead is strong, skilled in martial arts, and not the usual fragile type you often see in matriarchal novels.
Meanwhile, the female lead is a scientist—rational and logical. Even when she falls for the male lead, she doesn’t let her emotions cloud her decisions.
If you push through the first few chapters, you’ll gradually find the story really intriguing.
It has a mix of mystery, detective elements, and romance.
The author’s writing style is like crafting a puzzle—except they deliberately leave out a few pieces, making it hard to predict what happens next, yet keeping you hooked.
In the end, everything will come together and be explained.
One-sentence summary: Wife, stop playing with beakers and look at me!
In a laboratory accident, research scientist Zhu Wansheng accidentally travels to a matriarchal world. The original owner of the body is an eighteen-year-old only daughter of a wealthy rouge merchant, already married with a handsome young man.
Zhu Wansheng grins: Nice! She always said she was heaven’s favorite granddaughter. After a life of toil in her previous life, she can enjoy blessings in this one.
However, her joy lasts no more than three seconds as bad news arrives: the original owner’s family is about to go bankrupt, and her husband wants a divorce.
Even worse, she’s stuck with a research system full of restrictions.
Zhu Wansheng: ? Is this the destiny of a research dog?
——
Faced with this mess, Zhu Wansheng pours herself a bowl of wine to drown her sorrows. In her drunken haze, her husband arrives.
His figure is imposing, holding a long sword, with a dignified air that captivates Zhu Wansheng.
Gu Yingqing, however, looks at the alcohol-reeking Zhu Wansheng with undisguised disgust and coldly asks, “Divorce or not?” The intoxicated Zhu Wansheng mumbles vaguely, “I think… it’s not… it’s not… impossible!”
——
The next day, after sobering up, Zhu Wansheng is full of energy, rolling up her sleeves ready to make a big move. As for yesterday? She has no memory of it.
Zhu Wansheng is ambitious; a research dog fears nothing!
Upgrading rouge, extracting fragrances, producing perfumes, researching lipsticks… all shall bow to the power of modern technology!
The original owner’s dying rouge shop is revitalized. Her mother is pleased and with a wave of her hand, passes on the family business to her. As she takes control and her experimental results gain popularity, it’s the pinnacle of her life…
——
But there are always those who can’t stand to see her doing well. Jealousy, scheming, assassination attempts – they want nothing less than her life.
The person who has always kept his distance from her suddenly holds her tightly in his arms, eyes full of concern.
She is unharmed, but he falls into a pool of blood…
Zhu Wansheng feels guilty, “I can grant you one wish.”
Gu Yingqing tentatively circles his arms around her, carefully resting his head in the crook of her neck, pleading softly, “I regret it. Can we not divorce?”
Zhu Wansheng: ? When did I agree to a divorce?
[Small Theater]
The newly developed rouge is beautifully packaged, and Zhu Wansheng is eager to try it.
Gu Yingqing suddenly appears: “My lady, may I apply it for you?”
Cool fingertips lightly brush her lips. His Adam’s apple bobs as he leans in for a light bite.
Zhu Wansheng: ?
Gu Yingqing: It smells so good, I wanted to taste it…
On a warm spring day, Zhu Wansheng tries a new perfume: “Spring Night.” Gu Yingqing corners her against a wall.
Warm breath lingers on her neck.
“My lady, from now on, may I test the fragrances for you?”
