Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 45
With their attire finalized, there was no further delay in their schedule, and they soon arrived in Edegroon.
Ophelia observed the streetscape from within the carriage, all the way until they reached Sigrasil Castle. Despite the dim hour, the bustling streets of Edegroon felt familiar even to her.
Naturally, given the royal crest emblazoned on their carriage, passersby glanced curiously at it. Watching this, Ophelia suddenly recalled that Idren had once enjoyed considerable support among commoners.
Even she, who had never deeply involved herself in politics, had heard of it several times—proof enough that he had been quite popular.
She suddenly grew curious about the reason. Though she knew little about Idren’s life, Ophelia was certain of one thing: he lacked legitimacy.
People assumed only nobles cared about legitimacy, yet commoners were just as sensitive—perhaps even more so—about royal bloodlines.
From their perspective, since all royals seemed alike anyway, they preferred to serve the one with purer lineage—the kind whose rule wouldn’t leave them feeling unjustly treated.
Ophelia had come to understand this truth during Reden’s downfall.
Despite Mahanas committing every imaginable atrocity beyond basic decency, it took far longer than expected for him to lose his authority.
Not only nobles but even Reden’s commoners supported Mahanas solely because he was a prince and had long represented the royal family publicly.
Thus, the man who murdered Aglante’s three legitimate princes to seize the throne must have faced an overwhelmingly unfavorable situation.
Yet Idren had won the people’s hearts within just a few years.
Without taking her eyes off the window, Ophelia asked the man seated opposite her,
“Why do Aglante’s people like you?”
“…Why ask such a question all of a sudden?”

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
