I jumped back, trembling.
The makeshift wooden support I had been holding onto only seconds before broke and fell into the abyss below.
With trembling arms, I walked along the cliff’s face.
It would be a lie to say I wasn’t scared, but my remaining life was just three hours.
I had nothing to lose.
At the end of the cliff, I reached the dark entrance to a cave.
I took a deep breath and stepped into the darkness.
“Rox.”
With that single word, the previously dark space brightened, and a swarm of bats that had been clustered together startled and began to fly inward.
I started walking slowly, clutching the rosario tightly.
In the setting of the work, this cave was a secret passage known only to a select few, leading to one of the most infamous maps in ‘Legend of Delato’.
It was Donovan Duke Castle.
I climbed the stairs at the edge of the cave, breaking through the ceiling to reveal the castle’s basement.
I rejoiced at escaping the damp cave, leaning against the basement wall, catching my breath.
‘It’s hard….’
My head was spinning. I regretted not starting when I was in better shape, but what’s done is done.
Better to try to survive somehow than regret.
I forced myself up and began to move forward.
If not for my body’s condition today or tomorrow, I would have arrived at my destination easily.
After all, the structure of the Duke’s Castle was thoroughly in my head.
But my progress was not as fast as I thought, as my vision would blur with even a little strain.
“……There, who is that?”
I naturally expected to be caught.
“Setun.”
One of Angelica’s few useful abilities, a sleep skill, worked immediately, and the heavy body of the guard fell lifelessly to the ground.
Coughing erupted from my mouth.
Although it’s divine power that doesn’t wear out like a mage’s mana, it seemed to have taken a toll on my body.
The sudden nausea gripped me, and I hastily covered my mouth.
A bitter clot of blood gurgled down my esophagus.
‘It’s dangerous.’
Handling one would be possible with a simple sleep skill, but if several attack at once…
It would be game over.
This pitiful life would end.
‘I must be more careful.’
I chose the path least traveled by people and headed towards the deepest vault in Donovan’s dukedom.
How much time had passed?
It took me over three hours to cover a distance that would normally take an ordinary person about an hour. I arrived in front of a grand and antique iron door.
There was no handle or lock.
Even pushing it did not budge it.
Standing in front of the seemingly impassable door, I faintly smiled.
‘…As expected.’
From Kaysi to Donovan’s dukedom.
During the journey, I hadn’t encountered a single item or device that had departed from real Leodel.
In other words…
I took my gaze off the iron door and looked at the floor.
Unlike the other hallways covered with soft carpet, the floor here was tiled with marble.
It was engraved with symbols representing the seven jobs of Leodel.
I slowly touched the first tile. As expected, I felt a faint vibration.
‘Got it.’
What followed was easy. Third, fifth, second, third again, sixth, and finally seventh.
With a thud, the door opened, and a rainbowcolored light shone vividly in my eyes.
I stepped inside as if mesmerized.
The metallic object emitting all colors of the light…
It was none other than the Holy Sword Denesor.
A super cheatlevel item that instantly nullifies all abnormal conditions when equipped.
The only hope that would save my life!
‘In the real Leodel, Angelica died before I even arrived in Donovan, so I never had the chance to use it. But…’
I slowly reached out to Denesor.
The closer I got, the more Denesor vibrated and resonated with me.
I didn’t hesitate any longer and grabbed the hilt of Denesor with both hands.
‘…!’
My head flashed white.
My body trembled, and from the hands holding the hilt, it started to stiffen.
Soon after, I was overwhelmed by the surging pain, and my body involuntarily crumpled.
Did I make a wrong judgment?
Perhaps Denesor might not be saving me but fully severing my already dwindling life.
My eyes began to moisten.
Ah, this is how I die…
Then.
As if by magic, all the pain disappeared, and my body felt light.
I blinked my eyes.
Breathing no longer hurt my chest.
I hastily checked the notification window, and the place where the had always been was cleanly empty.
I collapsed to the floor, my strength sapped.
‘…I survived.’
I succeeded.
I succeeded!
But before I could fully revel in my joy,
A cold blade touched my neck.
In the euphoria of finally obtaining Denesor, I hadn’t noticed anyone’s presence.
Fear welled up to my jaw in an instant.
An icy, cold voice rang out.
“What lowly rat has scurried in here?”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
