Thud!
I hastily covered myself with the blanket. Jenny peeked her head in.
“Miss.”
“Yeah, why?”
“But do I need to cover up? It’s not like anything will be visible anyway.”
I moved slightly to the side. As expected, Jenny didn’t notice anything and smiled brightly.
“Are you hungry? Shall I bring you something to eat?”
I glanced at Jenny after seeing the giant snake occupying my bed and shook my head.
“No, it’s okay. Jenny, I just want to rest a bit.”
“Sure! Take a good rest. I’ll come back in the evening!”
After Jenny left, the room became quiet again. I turned my body to stare at the bed.
“What should I do with that?”
I tapped the tail with my foot. The sole passed through the transparent form.
Feeling a bit uneasy, I quickly withdrew my foot.
“This won’t work.”
I took out the aquamarine from the drawer.
Originally, I was going to hit it with my fist, but I changed my mind, holding it in my hand and reaching it out of the window.
“If you don’t wake up, I’ll leave it like this.”
「…….」
“One, two…”
「…….」
“Three…!”
The necklace string slipped out of my hand. Just as it was about to completely slide down.
「Kyaaaaah!」
The water snake wriggled vigorously and flew towards me. The snake, now close, suddenly thrust its pointed face forward.
Hiss, hiss.
Its tongue flickered like a living creature.
“What are you doing.”
“Get up.”
“Are you daring to discard my body?”
“It’s because of that that you woke up.”
“You have a big mouth.”
Saaah. The snake’s mouth opened wide. Sharp teeth gleamed.
“Are you threatening me now?”
I shook the necklace string, holding only the end, outside the window.
Thud! Thud!
The snake slapped the ground with its tail. It seemed quite displeased. Its mouth closed shut.
“Amusing snake.”
It was chilling when it burned with hatred towards humans for revenge, but seeing it now, it seemed like I could laugh.
Staring at it intently, the water snake got angry.
「How dare you stare at me!」
“It’s getting angrier.”
Leo had a temper too, but compared to this spirit, Leo was an angel.
「You dare to look at me with such contempt!」
“I’m not sorry to Leo.”
I shrugged, and the snake’s mouth twitched.
“If you promise not to harm me, I won’t discard you.”
「…….」
“Not if you don’t like it.”
「I understand.」
At the moment I was about to throw the necklace string, the snake quickly spoke.
It caught the aquamarine that had returned in a large circle.
“Good thinking.”
I returned to the bed and sat down.
Looking at the water snake, its expression was peculiar.
“Why?”
「I have something I’m curious about.」
“What is it?”
「Who is that guy? The big one who was with you.」
“Your Highness?”
「Your Highness?」
“The son of the Emperor of the Empire.”
「Empire. Has the Sun and Fire Nation established another kingdom?」
If it’s the Sun and Fire Nation, is this a story from the mythical era?
The corners of the water snake’s mouth rose upon seeing my expression.
「Curious, aren’t you?」
“A bit.”
「Heh. Honesty is good. I particularly dislike humans who pretend. Well, not that you’re any better. You’re also a human of this land.」
If I don’t ask, I won’t know.
“That man is from the Sun and Fire Nation, a descendant of fire, the son of Sala. His aura troubled me. A very hot one.”
At that moment, the snake shook its head quickly, as if recalling something.
“It wasn’t a good feeling.”
‘Odd.’
Although it was said it wasn’t a good feeling, the expression seemed joyful. Joyful? No, perhaps more akin to relief.
I remembered the scene when the aquamarine made contact with the large priest Uranus.
Humans rushing towards gods or spirits. Another group filled with anger that appeared afterward.
“You presumptuous beings who claimed to be pure…!”
They must be ancient humans.
“In the beginning, there were the Fire and Water tribes. Temperamentally hot and cold. The world harmonizes with water and fire, earth, wood, and minerals. Especially water and fire. If the energy of either becomes too strong, disaster strikes. You know that, don’t you?”
I nodded.
Recent disasters, floods covering Lioresah and disasters in the desert, came to mind.
“The fiery energy he possesses is at a level I can’t endure now. It’s amazing. The discord of coexisting beings. ”
The snake’s voice sounded like it would disappear soon. I could feel a bitterness, as if it was fading away.
“But it’s a strange matter. Why is he still in such good condition? Even though he stays in this land.”
The repeated words from earlier kept echoing in my ears.
This land?
“Imperials, so, the Fire Nation being in this land is strange?”
The snake looked at me piercingly.
“It’s because of you.”
“What?”
“Because of the Water Tribe like you, we lost our power, and the descendants of fire were driven away. This land, where the power of water was forcibly drawn out, is a polar opposite for the descendants of fire.”
It was in the same context as what was discussed in the temple.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
