“It depends on what you two will do.”
Princess Larratu spoke coldly, quite aggressively compared to her previous friendly demeanor.
“And Kichep, you better watch your words with me.”
Although known as a socialite, Princess Larratu, as a royal, exuded considerable authority in directing Kichep.
Kichep, who had exchanged glances with Giovanni, obediently lowered his head.
“I apologize.”
After receiving the apology, Princess Larratu’s gaze turned to Giovanni.
Drenched in rain like everyone else, he didn’t seem cold at all. The rain appeared to have no impact on his condition.
His usually firm gaze looked down at her distinctly, unaffected by the rain.
Princess Larratu, who was confidently confronting Kichep, subtly inclined her head.
“Prince? What will you do?”
“Hold the empire accountable.”
“…What?”
Her face slightly stiffened.
Giovanni spoke dumbly, “I don’t know why an Umbrage assassin targeted you. If you think this is the empire’s fault, hold them responsible. Cooperate.”
“…”
“If there’s cooperation to offer.”
A bewildered expression flickered across the princess’s face.
After a moment, Princess Larratu spoke with a somewhat weakened voice.
“If needed, consider it requested.”
As if refreshing the atmosphere, she lifted the corners of her mouth.
“It’s late, but thank you for your help. Kichep seems to have finally recovered without even taking the antidote from Carlo’s priest.”
“There were other skilled doctors.”
His gaze briefly passed over me. I almost coughed awkwardly.
Luckily, Princess Larratu had her back turned to me.
The doctor he mentioned was me.
[Tyrin, if the reason Imperial people are vulnerable to Pneumatosis is due to the extreme energy in their blood, is there a way to fix it?]「Yes.」
[What is it?]「If you look at why the Sun and Fire people can’t thrive in this land, you’ll understand.」
[Stop beating around the bush and tell me.]「Tsk.」
[Quickly. One, two, three….]「Originally, this land belonged to our spirits. It has a chilly nature that doesn’t match the Sun and Fire people. After the evil magic was realized, it became worse. The chilly nature digs into the body and makes it painful.」
[Didn’t you say last time that the spirits lost their bodies and sealed their powers, creating a curse?]「It’s the same thing. As sinners harmed us, and spirits began to be inherited through the bloodline of sinners, there was no longer any being to neutralize the energy. The Sun and Fire people can’t control the energy entering their bodies, so of course, they suffer.」
[What about the medicines the assembly used that didn’t work?]「Right. What medicines would work without spirits?」
[…….]「Of course, it wouldn’t have worked in the past. But now it does.」
[You don’t mean…?]「Yes. Because you appeared.」
[…….]「More precisely, because you awakened the power.」
A radiant gaze pierced through me.
“You are the only spirit who has survived with a physical form. Since you haven’t been purified by sinners, you can wield the power of your tribe.”
Tyreen’s confident voice still echoed vividly.
My perception of being a spirit?
Certainly, it doesn’t exist.
I am still myself, and Tyreen’s eager gaze, wanting me to unleash the power as a spirit at any moment by breaking free from the shackles, was still burdensome.
‘How relentless he is in urging me to reclaim the remaining spirit’s power. My ears ache.’
Anyway, fixing Kichep, as Tyreen said, was not difficult.
It was just a matter of feeding him the fruit that bore the remnants of the trick I played when I first met Giovanni, using the gift of reception where I infused my energy.
“Isn’t it poisonous?”
Kichep, who did not receive any suspicions despite his face turning blue, only opened his mouth to receive the fruit when Giovanni directly held his jaw.
And not long after, he rose from his seat as if lying was lifted.
“I guess there was a skilled doctor I didn’t know about. Fortunately.”
Princess Larratu was curious about the mention of a skillful doctor, but she didn’t inquire further.
If it were a few months ago, she might have asked, like the day she first met Giovanni as a maid.
But she had changed.
‘Ha, it feels like just yesterday that she was delighted to gain royal connections.’
Supported by Karsatuna, Princess Larratu turned towards me.
“I’ve learned a lot from this incident.”
She whispered as she approached.
“I have one question.”
“…”
“Did you know the author would appear today?”
“I thought it might happen. That’s why I came. I told you, princess. Venturing outside is dangerous.”
A fierce gaze was directed at me.
“You came to save me…”
“…”
“Lucky that the downpour didn’t happen, what would you have done?”
There’s a flaw. The downpour was not a coincidence; I caused it.
But Princess Larratu didn’t know that fact.
“I knew it would rain.”
“Hat!”
Princess Larratu, covering her mouth with one hand, rolled her eyes.
“On such a clear day?”
A drop of rain brushed across her face, which had turned pale due to the lowered body temperature.
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.
