“I can list countless oddities, but I can’t make heads or tails of this one either.”
One thing’s certain, there’s another Swordmaster on this mountain besides me.
“How long do you think that scorpion has been dead?”
“Several hours, it seemed. We found it around noon.”
Several hours, huh…
After my chat with Gabriel, that thought still occupied my mind.
If my speculation is correct, an unidentified Swordmaster who targets only the strong magical beasts operates at night or dawn.
So, it makes sense that we would find a beast that has been dead for several hours during the day.
‘It can’t be that someone knows our path and kills the beasts in advance…’
‘Picking off only the strong ones like the Scorpion and Werewolf sure makes things easier.’
Upon reflection, what Pierre suggested wasn’t so ridiculous.
A person who moves ahead of the subjugation team but avoids them, takes down only the challenging beasts?
I lowered my arm from my trembling eyelid.
I can’t think of any reason why you’d be here.
So why do you keep coming to mind?
“Who could it be?”
It’d be good to confirm who it is.
As the thought crossed my mind, I slowly rose as if entranced.
If it’s you, Ian, who’s here…
I need to meet you.
“Your Highness, how much longer will you stay up there?”
Perched atop a sturdy tree, Ian glanced downwards.
‘You ought to get some sleep.’
Though hidden by dense foliage, Nathan’s concern was crystal clear.
“I’m coming down now.”
“Where shall we stay?”
“There’s a spot I saw earlier.”
Ian gave a terse reply, his eyes still fixed on the distant glow of the camp. It was the subjugation team’s camp.
It’s late, and only the patrol’s movements were occasionally visible, yet he couldn’t look away.
“Why don’t you observe them from a closer distance like yesterday? Aren’t you too far today?”
Ian exhaled softly instead of answering. Yesterday, he had gotten a bit closer and overheard the inner thoughts of the knights of the Guardian Order.
‘Rinart, was it? He had something going on with Rosebelia, the Deputy Commander of the Guardian Order.’
The knights of the Guardian Order were convinced that Rinart had feelings for Rosebelia.
‘If others have noticed, that means he has been noticeably attentive to her.’
Energy seemed to drain out of him instantly. If it weren’t for this damn curse, he would have been by Rosebelia’s side.
It should have been me taking care of her, not Rinart…
Rubbing his dry eyes, Ian forcefully shifted his gaze away from the crusaders’ camp.
“Your Highness, I noticed a spring nearby earlier.”
‘Do I want to wash up? Would it be dangerous?’
In one leap, Ian jumped down from the towering tree. Then he gave a signal for Nathan to take the lead.
“I need to wash some blood off as well.”
At Ian’s additional words, color flushed across Nathan’s face.
“You can go this way.”
As Nathan said, there was a fairly clear spring nearby. As soon as he dipped his toes in, a cold sensation spread throughout his body.
“Ah, it’s cold. I’ve already washed up.”
“Already?”
Had he come here just to wash his face like a cat?
“I’ll take care of the clothes you’ve left here. Take your time washing up.”
Seeming bewildered, Ian chuckled and took a few more steps toward the middle of the spring. The rippling water quickly rose up to his waist.
Just as he was about to take another step, he heard a rustle from the bushes behind him.
“Who’s there?”
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
