“It’s warm.”
Agares, who had been marching in the relatively back with Ludwig, frowned.
“What is?”
“That behavior. They even had a few spirits help our little one, but what did they do to boldly demand and sit like that?”
“Well, they don’t have strength, what can they do.”
“If you don’t have strength, you should at least try to gather it. Does our frail little one have strength so she studies spirits day and night? Humans, really.”
‘For a human, her strength is more than enough.’
This demon severely underestimated human abilities. He greatly misunderstood that all race’s base power was at his level, as he let magic and sword energy pour out of him.
Slightly irritated, Ludwig decided to take a jab at this demon in front of him.
Suddenly, he remembered the handkerchief tied around his wrist, and as if to show off, he rolled up his sleeves and tied his hair. Anyone could tell he was trying to show off his handkerchief.
“Hmm. Hm.”
Even fake coughing. But when Agares didn’t look at his wrist, Ludwig untied the handkerchief from his wrist and pretended to wipe the sweat that wasn’t even there. Quite dramatically.
“You reckless fool, just wipe it quietly.”
Even though he was making it blatantly obvious, Agares’ expression only showed contempt.
‘He’s so obtuse!’
In the end, Ludwig shook the handkerchief in front of Agares.
“……Do you want me to run in like a bull?”
“This is pretty.”
“A handkerchief is just a handkerchief, what’s pretty and all.”
“Look here.”
“What am I looking at……wait.”
Agares’ expression twisted all at once. On the edge of the white handkerchief, the name of his little friend was embroidered.
Looking at the horribly skewed stitch, it seemed that the little friend had embroidered it herself with the help of the maids.
“No way……!”
The corners of Ludwig’s mouth rose. The imperial citizens who saw the prince’s arrogant smile roared even louder with the certainty of victory.
In reality, it was a smile stemming from the fact that he had played a trick on the demon, and that the demon had not received the handkerchief from the land thief.
“You didn’t get something like this, did you?”
His tone was clearly teasing. A gritting sound was heard from Agares’ clenched teeth.
“Eve stopped by the palace herself a few days ago and gave this before leaving. She said she read somewhere that it’s customary to give a handkerchief with my name embroidered on it to my SO! PRE! CIOUS! FRIEND! who is going to the battlefield.”
The shoulders of this small national root of the empire puffed up with pride. The tongue, usually so silent it couldn’t be any more, spun like a fish that had met water.
“She gave one to me, but seeing as she didn’t give one to you, well, it’s obvious.”
The smile on Ludwig’s face, who was waving his hand among the imperial citizens, became even darker.
Conversely, Agares’ expression became so hideous that one would not doubt if he said it was the advent of a great devil coming to destroy the world.
“Ah. Did you say a handkerchief is just a handkerchief? And asked what’s pretty about it? Even if Eve gave it?”
“Pretty.”
“What?”
“Pretty.”
Even though he hadn’t received it himself, even though it was a gift the little one had given to someone else, he had not a single thought of belittling it.
Everything that came from the little friend’s hand had value to him. But he couldn’t stop his teeth from clenching.
“You look like you’re about to set the world on fire.”
“If you don’t want to start the second demonhuman war right here, shut your mouth.”
Just then. A familiar sound was heard above Agares’ head.
[Hey! Demon!]A semitransparent fish, coloured like water, was circling above him, its plump body and long tail flapping.
“What do you want.”
[Huff. You… look even more evil than usual… Scary…]“What is it.”
“He’s feeling quite low pressure right now. Understand, spirit.”
“You shut up.”
[No, I just came to run an errand… Our chick said to give this to the demon… But if you look at me so coldly, I might freeze and become an ice spirit…]“Eve did?”
His gaze, which could have frozen the water spirit, immediately warmed up.
Undine’s tail trembled in the gap. This one is definitely crazy. Swallowing words she would never dare say out loud.
[Yes. She told me to give this.]Undine dropped the object she had tied to her tail onto Agares’ hand.
“This is……”
[“It’s a charm. It’s supposed to ward off evil. The thread attached to it was wound by the chick itself.”]A round silver piece. In the middle, unknown patterns were deeply engraved, and above them, a multicolored thread was wound, wishing for peace.
“…She wound it herself?”
[Yes. I saw it! The chick fetched the thread and wound it herself!]“Directly, directly……”
Aegares’ repeating expression instantly turned into one of delight. His menacing expression, like a great demon who had just come to conquer the continent, disappeared completely.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
