I Plan to Repay Kindness with Enmity (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 45
He concealed his true intentions, selfishly pursued his own gain, and chose to ignore those he deemed beneath him rather than show them mercy.
As the heir of a declining scholarly house, the burden he carried must have been quite heavy.
I understand his situation—separate from my own feelings.
‘Thinking about it, Aris, as a priestess, must have been someone he needed—to further solidify the position of House of Count Lorenst.’
In the past, I believed he genuinely loved and cherished Aris, but now I see there were many oddities. Still, considering Hubert’s ambitions, it all makes a certain sense.
‘If anything happens to Aris, he’ll be in trouble too.’
I concluded my thoughts while watching the rain-summoning ritual proceed smoothly.
Today was the day of the rain-summoning ceremony. As Princess Lalatu had previously indicated, the royal court hastened the ritual, and upon receiving the directive, each noble house—including mine—moved their ceremonial schedule forward.
Because preparations were rushed more than in previous years, I’d been utterly overwhelmed for several days, but so far, everything had gone smoothly.
On the altar, the ceremony was in full swing.
Novice priests, adorned entirely in blue from head to toe, finished their dance with wide, sweeping motions of their robes, prompting a burst of applause.
The order of the ceremony continued as follows:
After the novice priests performed their dedicatory dance for Marta, senior priests would lead a collective prayer.
Then, a purified priest would offer a supplication to the heavens, and blessed rain would fall.
Generally, rain-summoning rituals followed this sequence.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
