It was amusing that the demon was suspecting him as a fellow demon. Agares looked down at Valac with a smug expression and asked,
“You… what was your name again? No, there’s no way I would know your name. What was your epithet? Trash can?”
“You bastard!”
“Whatever. Unless it’s a fairly high rank, there’s no way I would know the epithet. Ignore me and focus on the vanguard.”
Agares pointed at Arkan with his thumb.
“Right, that’s it! If I just take down the vanguard, that’s enough! He does seem stronger, but humans care more about ranks!”
The twoheaded snake quickly slithered towards Arkan. Arkan blocked Harold and Alec, who were trying to intercept him.
The demon had singled out the vanguard as his opponent, and it was clear that Arkan’s reputation would not fare well if he did not confront him.
Putting aside such practical reasons, Arkan did not want to delegate to anyone else the demon that had brought tens of soldiers, who had followed him for days, to the brink of death.
“What’s your rank?”
“62nd! Quite high…”
“Low.”
The angellike demon’s face contorted hideously. Having been insulted twice in a row, it was difficult to contain his lofty pride.
True to his epithet, hundreds of snakes of different sizes and appearances began to boil up from the ground.
Arkan dismounted and drew his sword.
This was his first confrontation with a demon. Arkan recalled his father’s warning not to let his guard down.
To defeat the demon is to be recognized as a highranking general of the empire. It’s a necessary rite of passage and a rewarding ordeal to go through.
Although he was troubled that the demon’s rank was relatively low, a spectacular result would suffice.
Arkan smiled and struck the ground. At exactly the same time. Bang, two swords clashed. Snakes, each one bearing venom, charged in.
All the knights and soldiers who were guarding the battlefield witnessed it.
The golden dragon clan, whose power moves mountains and whose spirit covers the world.
The debut of the leader of the future Cha family, standing firmly beneath it.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]It didn’t take long for the conclusion to come.
With light scratches on his cheek and abdomen, and a relatively deep wound on his left shoulder, Arkan cut off the demon’s neck.
The soldiers’ cheers sharply pierced the heavens. Arkan, who had not yet fully emerged from the highly focused battle, felt the heat in a daze.
“My lord… ugh!”
Harold, who saw the blood oozing from the left shoulder, piercing the thick military uniform, was about to rush over in a fuss, but Cedric closed his mouth.
“Quiet. A large wound is a blemish. Don’t disgrace our young master.”
If the elder brother doesn’t show it, there’s no need to pretend to know it first. Not being a fool, he would be treated where the soldiers’ eyes wouldn’t reach.
Cedric, as if he had not seen Arkan’s deep wound, grinned broadly and cheered along.
Agares had a deep smile on his face.
One stood firmly despite the deep wound, and the other quickly assessed the situation and silenced the knights.
‘Like father, like son.’
It was a rare compliment from Agares.
He had a hunch where the occasionally shown extraordinary friendliness of the brat came from.
“….It feels like I’ve caught another glimpse of the source of our little one’s mental state.”
The extraordinary side came from the family, and the slightly twisted side from the Aritina Knights. It must be something like that.
“Then, if I catch all the knights, will our brat grow up to be a decent child…..”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
