Because of the creature moving fidgetily, his forearm felt itchy. Slyly, the corners of his mouth went up.
“Harmang, could you bring the data on the habitats of monsters that I organized?”
Since there was no response, it seemed like he might continue to be annoying, so he had to send a firm warning.
Harmang couldn’t see this creature, so he couldn’t speak to the Earth Fairy in front of it. He couldn’t add worries to the old man who was already making worries out of thin air.
“Your Highness, surely you’re not going to personally go to exterminate monsters?”
Sure enough, in no time, Harmang quickly created a new source of worry, making his already wrinkled face more crumpled.
“I’m just comparing it with this year’s. It’s also a good exercise for you to fetch it yourself.”
Harmang didn’t like the order to go personally, but he was greatly relieved at the idea of not having to go out himself to catch monsters. Finally alone in the office, Kai, with the creature that had climbed up to his forearm, gently squeezed it with the opposite hand.
Suddenly grabbed, the creature exclaimed, “Aiko!” in a small voice.
Kai placed Ark back on the desk and asked seriously, “Why do you keep coming to me?”
“Well, Stella told me to take care of you.”
“Stella? Why?”
For a moment, suspicions arose that they might be using these small creatures to monitor him.
Could they know my true identity after all?
“If poor Aiko can’t eat or something, Stella asked me to bring him. She’ll give him something to eat.”
“Sigh. Who’s feeling sorry for him!”
“Oh, right. Stella told me not to say that he looks pitiful in front of you.”
“Why?”
“Stella said so. Normally, if you call a fool a fool, he gets angry, and if you say someone pitiful is pitiful, he gets angry too. I thought it was a lie, but it’s true. Why does he get angry?”
As if he couldn’t understand, Ark shook his head, rattling. It was a conversation that was no longer worth listening to.
“Now go back.”
“No.”
“Why.”
“It’s too far.”
“How did you come when you arrived?”
“On a pigeon.”
“Then go back riding a pigeon.”
“You’re a fool. Pigeons sleep at night! Oops! Do you get angry if I call you a fool? Then you really are a fool.”
Ark asked with a serious expression. While doing so, he didn’t forget to mutter, “If you feel sorry for him, you’re a fool, really pitiful.” Kai genuinely wanted to ask him.
Aren’t you the fool here?
But he couldn’t bring himself to ask because he felt that the round creature might get really angry.
Stella came outside for a walk and to water Zihicho. Zihicho was the name of the seed the fairies brought.
Esta, who later found out the name, proudly told her about it. It was said to have excellent effects on wounds, and Stella was curious about what it would look like when fully grown.
Esta also followed along at the mention of watering. Iber had fallen asleep early, and Oton said he would guard the hoe, but from his expression, it seemed like he just found it too troublesome to come out.
“Do we have to give Zihicho water only at night?”
“Not necessarily. You can give it during the day, but it’s better to give it at night until it sprouts. After that, it’s fine.”
“I see. Have you also raised Esta?”
“Several times? When he got injured, the ointment made from Zihicho fruit worked well. It has a good effect.”
“It’s a precious herb. I should grow it well.”
Stella felt that Zihicho would be as valuable as carrots this time. She thought she could buy a stall license through the Moonlight Guild to sell herbs, just like last time.
While chatting merrily, the two arrived at the place where they had planted Zihicho.
Esta, who noticed something, ran excitedly into the middle of the field.
“Stella, the sprouts have already appeared! It seems we don’t need to water them at night.”
“Really? Ark is truly amazing.”
Every time Stella witnessed a miraculous situation, she marveled anew at the power of the earth fairy. Planting the sprouts required Ark’s strength, and each time she saw such a miraculous situation, Stella was amazed by the power of the earth fairy.
“Stella!”
While Stella and Esta were curiously looking at the sprouting ground, Ark’s voice reached them.
They both raised their heads quickly, and when they turned toward the sound, it wasn’t Ark they saw but Lois, riding a horse and approaching from this direction.
“Hmm? Where’s Ark?”
When they couldn’t see the owner of the voice, Esta furrowed his brow and scrutinized the darkness.
While Stella walked towards the entrance, Lois got closer to the entrance of Verudra Castle.
“Oh? Ark is coming too.”
It was dark, so it wasn’t easy to see, but after hearing Esta’s words, they spotted Ark sitting on Lois’s shoulder. Ark firmly gripped Lois’s hair to avoid falling.
“I brought him because he was in my room.”
Lois, who had dismounted from the horse, took Ark down from his shoulder and presented him to Stella. To onlookers, it would seem like an odd scene where they exchanged something despite nothing being visible.
“Oh. Thanks for bringing him.”
“Well then, I’ll be going now.”
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
