Teddy’s voice was more determined than ever. It felt resolute.
“Is it okay to be used by me?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“Because you are my savior.”
“That was said to be saved for the purpose of using it. Aren’t you resentful of me? Don’t you find me hateful? Like, really…?”
“I hate you. I find you resented.”
That’s right, those feelings. Speak those feelings honestly. But Teddy, who was smiling, grabbed Sessenia’s arms, which were limp from sitting.
“I wish you had told me about that resentment sooner.”
“Ah…”
“If you don’t like the term ‘savior’… I’ll say it differently. I love you. That’s why I want to be used.”
“Ha…”
“Then don’t say anything else now. It worries me more instead. When you really know my circumstances, when you learn about that truth I don’t know, you might dislike me. I’m afraid of that.”
“No. That won’t happen. Under any circumstances, I won’t dislike you. You are the most perfect and precious person to me.”
When the person himself desires it so much, there was nothing more to be done.
“I’ll use you. Both you and me. Become the emperor for me.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.”
“I love you.”
“… No. And… you now know that you are also a noble. But why do you keep silent?”
“When I can stand by your side without being overshadowed, that’s when I’ll let go of my words. Instead of saying ‘I love you,’ I’ll say ‘love me.'”
Sessenia forced a smile.
‘When that time comes, I have to love someone else. Not me. I can’t love anyone.’
“Don’t think about other things. Just look at me.”
“Yeah.”
“Can I… not hang my head now? Because of the bloodline that drove me into hell… because I’m a precious noble… can I be proud?”
“Sure. You can live proudly. No matter what anyone says, you can stand tall.”
As if waiting for that moment, Teddy smiled broadly, his cheeks puffing like a file.
Tap, tap.
That was the moment. Suddenly, a knock was heard, and Sessenia quickly stepped back.
“Yes, yes!”
“May I come in?”
“Master? Uh, please come in!”
As if somewhat regretful, Teddy extended his lips slightly, casually holding her arm. Precisely, he just held the hem of her clothes, but even that seemed good to him, and he laughed foolishly.
As soon as she entered the room, seeing Teddy like that, Matapju let out a deep sigh.
“Is it over?”
“I asked if it was over, but something feels strange… haha.”
“I just asked if the conversation was over… But it seems like you’re the one with strange thoughts, Sessenia.”
“No.”
Smiling at the resolute Sessenia, Matapju met eyes with Teddy.
“Is it okay now?”
“Ah… yes. Probably.”
“Yeah. Luckily. I was a bit worried that you might devour yourself…”
Looking at Teddy like a grandson, Matapju gazed at him with an embarrassed expression.
“Devour myself?”
“Yeah. I was a bit worried about your energy. When talking to that guy. But now, you look perfectly fine. Seems like that kid has become a goal for something. A life with a goal is good. It makes you healthier.”
“Ah…”
“It’s as if something good happened, despite there being nothing.”
Sessenia’s cheeks turned slightly red at the memory of the confession of love earlier. It was the first confession she had received.
She had expected it, but it was so sudden and overwhelming. So, she tried hard to forget about it, but the events from earlier came back to her mind because of Matapju.
“Th-that… Nothing happened!”
“Yeah. Since you say nothing happened, nothing happened, right? Well, then, nothing happened at all. Hehe.”
“Stop teasing me!”
“Why are you getting upset, Sessenia? I just talked to that kid.”
Although it was obvious teasing, Matapju shamelessly continued to laugh.
“Now, let’s try it.”
“W-what are you doing?!”
“Yeah…? It’s just undoing the magic in your hair… Why are you so surprised?”
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.
