“I’m not saying we’ll do it right now. Even a practice duel is still a duel, so first get Schultz to acknowledge your skills.”
“Understood, sister.”
The dream ended just like that. I blinked a few times and saw a strange ceiling, not darkness.
“Was that a story from the original work?”
I’m still speculating, but the more I dream, the more convinced I become that I’m seeing the story from the original work.
It would make sense, as the Rosebelia I saw in the dream looked exactly like the one in my memory.
But why show this to me? The words I said to Kaiden also had a similar tone to the original.
Isn’t this the same as the original?
“I feel like there’s a reason for showing me the original story…”
Am I thinking too deeply?
As various assumptions linked together one after another, a slight headache started. Pressing on my temples, I struggled to keep my eyelids open.
[Star Icon]As if a downpour had passed, the sky was clear. Just as I was about to breathe in the crisp air, I saw a figure with red hair in the distance.
I was about to call for Edwin but paused to closely observe his gait.
It seemed like his left leg’s movement was somewhat slower?
While his right leg moved freely, the left leg seemed to hesitate just before touching the ground. The sight somewhat resembled a limp.
“Edwin.”
“Rose.”
“Your leg, is it slightly off?”
Edwin looked down at his own leg. Seeing his slightly awkward cough, my suspicion turned to certainty.
“You’ve had a problem with your ankle since the last monster subjugation, haven’t you?”
He had returned to the knight order just two months after being told he’d need at least three months of treatment for the monster’s poison.
“…Yes, who am I fooling.”
Edwin chuckled weakly and continued.
“Just like you suspected, the pain in the ankle I injured back then has returned. I’ve been enduring it with painkillers, but ah, it’s usually not this bad… I didn’t bring any painkillers because I didn’t expect to stay at the quarters, so it’s particularly bad today.”
“Have you seen a doctor?”
“I’ve consulted a few, and they think the poison wasn’t completely neutralized back then.”
When Rosebelia’s memories flowed in, there were several emotionally difficult segments, one of which was when she had left for the monster subjugation.
Although Rosebelia was never injured, the moments when her comrades were injured or died flowed into her memories…
A tingling sensation was felt on her palm, and she glanced down. Unknowingly clenching her fist, she relaxed it and a faint breath escaped.
“What should we do?”
“I’m trying to find the medicine again.”
Edwin seemed to be observing my mood. Getting a proper antidote for monster poison was not common, making it difficult to find in stores.
In that case, Edwin had a specific place to find the medicine.
“Are you getting it from the Lyrilei family?”
The Lyrilei family, thus Olivia’s natal family and the current queen’s natal family, were famous for their herb cultivation and compounding techniques.
So far, only the Lyrilei family had successfully created a proper antidote for monster poison.
“Yes, well, I’ve placed the request, so I’m waiting.”
“Was your sickness yesterday also perhaps…”
“No, that’s unrelated. Really.”
As I didn’t withdraw my skeptical gaze, Edwin raised both his hands as if to prove his innocence.
Looking at his eyebrows furrowed downward, he did seem unfairly treated.
“What are you guys doing here?”
The one who suddenly spoke was Lucas.
“Why? What’s happening?”
As Edwin asked with twinkling eyes, Lucas replied hesitantly.
“You’re slow on the uptake, Ed. The list for the next subjugation is out.”
“The list?”
“Go check it out in front of the main building.”
Exchanging glances with Edwin, I ran straight to the main building. At the top of the posting, it was written that Gabriel would lead the subjugation team, and below that were the names of the selected members.
In the Order of the White Knights, rank was unimportant, so only names were listed.
Seeing ‘Rosebelia’ written under Gabriel’s name, I slowly lowered my head. My eyes skimmed past familiar names like Edwin, Vanessa, and Lucas, and then stopped at one spot.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
