“If you forcibly take it off, they said it would be tough for Ian!”
“Really?”
Hecanca said. Liche, who was trying to check Ian’s condition, couldn’t take her eyes off Ian’s face. To be precise, his pupils.
Even the left eye, which used to be black, turned golden. When the necklace was removed, it regained its original color.
Strange. Despite being the same golden eye, it felt different.
Marquis Gerwer’s golden eye gave chills, and Hecanca’s golden eye looked dangerous. Ian’s golden eye, however, seemed calm, clear, and brilliant, just looking at it made the heart tranquil.
“He probably doesn’t need a separate lantern at night.”
Python murmured on Liche’s shoulder.
It had been a long time since she was momentarily captivated by a human’s appearance.
With golden hair and a handsome face to top it off. The star that once boasted of beauty seemed to have shed its tail and run away.
However, that was just the external appearance; inside Ian’s body was Hecanca.
Python observed Hecanca’s slightly suspicious grin intently. Judging by the irritation on his forehead, it was clear that the rascal was up to something.
“That necklace, it’s a star fragment, right? Did you give it to Ian Duane?”
“A star fragment. Liche also awaited Hecanca’s response to Python’s question. Hecanca casually opened his mouth.
“No. I just told Marquis Gerwer the location.”
“He gave it to you. Yellow guy.”
“Yellow guy? Is that my nickname?”
“…Contractee, let’s send that thing to the grave today. You, just go back to sleep.”
Python shivered, saying it sent a chill down his spine. Liche asked Hecanca.
“Why did you do that?”
“It was necessary to seal Ian Duane’s ability.”
“Necessary?”
“Because he shouldn’t recognize you. Lordwick went to great lengths to hide you from Marquis Gerwer, and it would be troublesome if Ian Duane found out. Leticia, if you were caught by Marquis Gerwer, it would be bad.”
Caught and not be caught. I wanted to hear more about what he meant, but Hecanca seemed to avoid giving me a chance to ask and continued to talk.
He said it was unnecessary now that Marquis Gerwer knew your identity because it was unnecessary after the curse. Since he wasn’t the owner of the necklace, he couldn’t remove it himself. Marquis Gerwer could do that, even to the extent of cursing. It was said that as the original owner, there was no problem tearing it off.
“But Rethiom. It’s a bit unfair to frame me as the culprit. What I told Marquis Gerwer was the location and usage of the artifact. He gave it to his son, Gerwer Marquis, saying it was good, right? How could he do such a thing to his son? Anyway, he’s a sneaky guy.”
Hecanca shook his head as if he had no guilt, like a third party. At Python’s comment that Liche looked sneaky, she asked Hecanca.
“Why did you do that?”
“There was a need to seal Ian Duane’s ability.”
“There was a need?”
“He needed to, but I didn’t do that.”
“Where are you going? It’s all your doing. Marquis Gerwer must have known that Ian Duane would receive the necklace. And then you tell my contractor to save Ian Duane? Are you out of your mind?”
“Oh, that thing.”
Hecanca shrugged his shoulders.
“There’s only a star fragment that seals abilities in the human realm. I feel sorry for the curse too. That’s why I told Lethiom to save Ian Duane, right? I came out in a hurry a while ago because I almost died.”
Upon hearing this, Liche glared at Hecanca. He made Ian like that, and now he possessed Ian’s body, yet he spoke like that.
“…You’re really bad.”
“Contractor, is that an insult? You can say something worse. Go ahead. Yellow Eyes, even if you chew on it, it won’t be refreshing.”
“…This…”
“It’s fine. It’s okay. Hey, yellow-eyed one. Do you have a conscience? And possessing Gerwer’s little kid’s body?”
Python protested to Hecanca.
“Don’t get too angry. It hurts. That’s why I gave you the artifact to prevent Mongyu disease from Marquis Lordwick.”
Hecanca shook the remaining necklace on Ian’s neck. Liche turned her gaze to the necklace.
It was the necklace Ian received when he sought help from Blake some time ago.
“You gave that to him?”
Hecanca grinned.
“A subordinate of Blake Lordwick found it in the information search. I got some money for it, but Lordwick has so much money that it’s okay, right?”
“It’s not okay.”
“Really? Then Ian Duane will pay for it.”
In the shameless manner, Liche lost words.
However, she couldn’t stop going with Hecanca.
Hecanca was the one who could resolve the events that would unfold in the future.
Python asked Hecanca.
“Is it certain that they are targeting the abilities of this generation?”
“It’s certain. Since the future reversed by Tita, that is, the future where Lethiom existed, went that way. Liche spoke of the future she experienced. Agnes trapped in Gerwer Mansion didn’t know about the outside world. The great stars that woke up from that future came to the human realm. And they targeted the abilities of the present generation. To be precise, Deon, Rovenhaf, and Zickbert.”
It was the story Hecanca heard from Tita, the great star who created Lethiom.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
