I Pretended To Be Dead And Ran Away (22 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 21
Tanasis clearly remembered the Princess of Nuremberg he had seen around the age of nine.
The Princess of Nuremberg, who was just about to turn five at the time, was a girl with rare pale blue hair and mysterious heterochromatic eyes—uncommon even in the Apentina Empire.
And the unusual ability she had possessed since birth.
“My child can purify mana, Your Highness.”
That was precisely why his pain lessened whenever Reniel was nearby—the murky mana would be purified.
Tanasis had suffered repeatedly due to the mana crystal forcibly absorbed into him.
He was an artificially created pyrokinetic.
Perhaps because of this, his ability was always difficult to control, and each time he used it, the murky mana shortened his lifespan to a perceptible degree.
And after using his mana, there would inevitably come side effects and pain.
Since arriving here, Tanasis had vividly sensed that this mana-induced pain had vanished.
At first, he had thought it might be due to the medicine Reniel brought him.
After all, he believed that since the Princess of Nuremberg had disappeared, no one else in the world could purify mana.
He assumed he was merely under the influence of painkillers—mistaking discomfort for relief.
Or perhaps he thought they had somehow obtained a stabilizing agent effective for calming mana and were secretly administering it to him in small doses.
Yet he never imagined that this Reniel was the true Princess of Nuremberg.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”

I wonder what happened to the real Reniel’s soul. And I fear for this Reniel’s life because if she kept relied on the information from the story she read, then she’s in for a nasty worm can because of how starkly differed the reality and the novel’s story is.
Og good. As much as I want to see the blooming relationship of Reniel-Felix, Ianatas’ choice will be much better than straight up killing Reniel. The killing choice is definitely going to spark an undesirable war and bloodbath for everyone.
So Reniel apparently lost all of her memory prior entering the orphanage? Dude, that sounds so suspicious. It’s less like Reniel ran away after finding out horrible secret of imperial family and more like she was deliberately kidnapped and tossed into the orphanage, losing her memory after a traumatic experience.

So apparently Renal is regarded as a threat for imperial family for her purifying ability and decided to make her Tanasias’ fiancee for close monitoring and helped him control his artificial ability. But Renal must’ve sensed or found out something that can put her life in danger. Thus she went into the hiding in the enemy’s nest and disguised as a man with the ring’s help. I wonder what kind of finding Reniel got to the point it threatened her life.
