“This is a gift! Cookies that I made!”
Evelia, holding up two baskets, placed each in front of Ludwig and Agares.
“You… made…?”
“You made it? Yourself?”
“Yes! Me! I did!”
Seeing the two friends who are usually not surprised with wide eyes turned towards her, proud Evelia nodded her head and straightened her body.
Agares and Ludwig’s eyes met with the same meaning.
‘Open it first. Cotton fluff.’
‘I respect my elder. Open it, demon.’
‘It’s a virtue of an adult to give opportunities to the young. Open it.’
‘Demon’s mental strength might be better than a human’s.’
Somehow feeling a bad premonition, the demon and the boy who were passing it off to each other…
“Open it quickly!”
At the urging of their little friend, they both lifted the white cloth covering the baskets at the same time.
A clear spring breeze swayed the white cloth.
‘It’s poop.’
‘It’s poop. A good gift.’
“Tada! They’re banana cookies!”
Hell, it’s cookies. This.
The two rulers stood stiffly, holding a basket in one hand and a white cloth in the other.
Evelia, who had been carefully observing her friends’ reactions, slightly bit her lip.
‘Both of them have no reaction……’
It seems that the words of Undine earlier were correct. Still, she thought they’d like it a little. Evelia, who was feeling a little gloomy, murmured.
“Undine told me, rabbits don’t eat sweet things. Neither do demons, originally. But I wanted to give it to Ashrathhen, so I made it.”
As the corners of the young friend’s eyes drooped desolately, Agares who had been confused about receiving a gift shaped like poop spoke soothingly. His ability to control his expressions was fast and proficient, befitting someone who had lived a long time.
“That’s incorrect information. Demons enjoy sweet things. I was so moved to receive such a gift for the first time that I temporarily malfunctioned.”
The eating habits of a whole race changed at the declaration of a highranking demon.
“Hmph. It’s common knowledge that demons do not eat sweets.”
“Common knowledge, huh…”
Agares slowly recited towards Ludwig who was denying it. Understanding the implied latter part of the sentence, Ludwig gave a hollow laugh.
Well. He is the one who conquers the world.
When the vessel that contains the creature is the world, the author who disrupts the vessel as he wishes is no different than going against order itself. It was clear that arguing about common sense in front of him was meaningless.
“Come to think of it, the rabbit seemed to have told me to eat all the sweets so far…….”
“Because you love sweets so much, I gave them to you. We are close friends after all.”
Agares lied without batting an eye.
His little friend, who hadn’t yet learned to doubt, nodded innocently, which was quite satisfying.
“And Louis was told he would grow up only eating good things and would not eat such things. Undine said so.”
“You said you made it.”
“Yes. I made it.”
“It’s the only food in the world that I can eat with ease.”
Hence, it was a dish more splendid than any delicacy.
Both Ludwig and Agares bit into a cookie.
A faint smile played on their lips.
Whether it was tasty, or not, their answer was the same.
“It’s delicious.”
“The best in the world.”
There couldn’t be any other answer.
Even if their little friend had thrown them a deadly poison to swallow.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
