Safety was paramount, so I had to keep an eye on these seemingly naive gentlemen a little longer[Dash]. Perhaps, I might even have to protect these rough men. It was an incident that even the heavens could not suppress their lament over.
“So……. you all like cute things…….”
And so, I became a little ringleader who even devoured the friends of my father, who had become the Earl of Locheur, of our Mirmod family……
But it’s okay.
‘Because I proved my strength through today’s hunt.’
I sighed deeply and opened my mouth.
“Good. I’ll bring something even cooler for the next hunting competition.”
“Would a falcon be enough, Cien?”
“No. A lion or a dragon! Hunt harder.”
It was nonsense.
These innocent men, as big as a tree, who would flee if they caught a rabbit or saw a beast, couldn’t possibly bring dragons or lions.
‘But saying this might at least make them more alert.’
The gentleman who had rough features, enough to have a scratch in his eyes, and was sobbing earlier when he looked at me, spoke loudly.
“A lion or a dragon? Oh, that’s my specialty[Dash].”
“Oh, you’re noisy.”
My father, who stopped another gentleman from speaking, pressed my breadlike cheek.
And he brought meat to my plate and said.
“Cien, eat a lot. That’s how you grow. You shouldn’t even think about scary things like lions or dragons, okay?”
‘I think dad underestimates me too much.’
A smaller stature than my peers, a grumbling tone of speech, and an impression smaller than a fiveyearold.
Indeed, these physical traits are far from being enough for a villain.
I objectively acknowledged my strength.
And, like a warrior, I held a fork in my left hand and a knife in my right and said.
“Grunt! Let me eat first!”
Just as my father said, I passionately tore into the rabbit’s grilled leg.
Seeing me eating eagerly, the sound of the gentlemen exclaiming continuously rang out.
I rough and brutally tore the meat off the bone. Gulp, gulp, showing my front teeth and imitating the fierce expression of the gentleman from before!
Of course, only enough to not shake the tiny kernellike milk tooth.
And I put the bone down on the plate and thought.
Before I knew it, the atmosphere at the table was cheerful.
As if no one knew the fact that an assassin had infiltrated earlier.
‘Come to think of it, I should tell them about what happened earlier. Because dad seems to trust people too easily.’
“Ah, right. An assassin came when you were not here?”
The noisy atmosphere, just about to get heated, cooled down instantly.
“……Was that so? I thought I heard some noise.”
“Grunt, don’t be scared. I chased him away.”
I bit my lips before speaking about the artifact. My dad didn’t know I got the magic tool from my grandmother, and I was planning to keep it a secret for a while. I grinned and grabbed the hem of the maid sister’s dress behind me.
“Grunt, no. The maid sisters chased him away, not Cien.”
Hearing my words, my dad was silent, expressionless.
I raised my small hand, like a snowwhite cat’s paw, and comforted my dad. Because as soon as he heard the word ‘assassin,’ his face turned pale for some reason. It must have been scary.
After all, an attack from an assassin must be terrifying for my fragile dad, who just became an earl.
I spoke sternly.
“There are many bad people in the world. So, don’t trust people too easily.”
However, the frozen atmosphere didn’t get any better.
Instead, my dad spoke in a warm voice.
“There won’t be such things in the future, Cien.”
My dad, who had stopped eating and hurriedly came to my side, hugged my shoulders tightly and comforted me, just like I did a moment ago.
“Were you very scared?”
The memory of the glares of the servants, who left bleeding heavily, rose in my mind.
I shouted with a haughty face.
“No, not at all. Dad, you look fine.”
“Huh?”
“We’re in an emergency right now. This is a very terrifying family, Maria.”
“Ha ha……. How did you know, our daughter…….”
Seeing my father’s brow furrowing, I said sternly.
“So we also need to train and do a lot of bad things instead of catching rabbits.”
I scowled and pressed my small hand hard against the creases on my father’s forehead, speaking loudly.
“Cien, honey. Our baby only needs to have happy thoughts.”
“…….”
“Don’t worry, because Dad will make everyone in the Mirmode family kind.”
Unfortunately, my father’s mind was still a flower garden.
I sighed deeply and thought.
‘First, let’s become more viciously strong. Convincing dad……. I should give up for a while.’
I thought with my eyes glaring.
I should start investigating the guy who sent the servant.
It was time to find out who the ‘beautiful person’ who sent the servant was.
[This is a time divider.]Meanwhile, Delpia was sitting idle in the garrison.
The hunting contest was about to end, but the servant she had sent into the forest hadn’t arrived. The same went for Cien, Matthias’s daughter.
She yawned as she checked the documents the messengers had sent.
Practically everything was unbearably boring.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
