Then, the impatient monster charged before she could throw the spark.
Kwaang!
Its huge claws, like elephant tusks, left deep scars on the wall. A direct hit might have pulverized her bones.
Eunha looked at her palm with anxious eyes.
With all her power, she could create a slightly larger flame, but then her stamina would be depleted after using it a few times.
‘But I don’t have a choice, do I?’
Survival came first.
Eunha spread her hands as if determined. Tiny flames gradually gathered, creating a small sun in her hands.
The instant the small sun touched the monster’s forehead…
Pooeong!
A massive explosion, like dynamite, erupted. Then an even more intense howl was heard.
The aftereffects of the explosion filled the cave with thick smoke. Suddenly, red eyes glowed crimson.
‘Is it still not enough?’
Cold sweat trickled down her chin.
The monster rubbed its burnt forehead on the floor, then revealed its teeth again.
‘Once more.’
Boom!
‘One more time!’
Boom! Boom!
‘Just one more…!’
Kwaang!
This time it would surely be unable to stand. Eunha, gasping for breath, took a step forward through the smoky haze.
Krrr……
Her legs gave way at the sound coming through the smoke.
She was reaching her limit. Her magical energy was running out.
So was the monster, as its stance changed.
If it came to a bodytobody fight without weapons or flames, the victory would naturally belong to the monstrous beast.
‘…No.’
Eunha’s eyes changed. There was just one way to defeat it.
In a flash, Eunha made her decision and looked up. The gaping maw of a tiger was visible.
A monster with skin as tough as steel. Its one and only weak spot.
‘The soft skin inside its mouth.’
Eunha reached out with all her strength.
“Close your mouth.”
Her right arm went deep into the tiger’s mouth.
Kwajik, the moment the tiger closed its mouth.
Kwaaaang─!
With a deafening noise, a huge explosion ignited, using Eunha’s right arm as fuel.
The big flame burst through the tightly closed jaws and blew the creature’s head apart like a watermelon.
Teeth, blood, and flesh splattered in all directions.
The tiger’s headless body collapsed lifelessly beside Eunha.
Ding!
[You have defeated the first named monster!] [Updating progress.] [ Loading ]The message window appeared simultaneously with Eunha’s collapse onto the floor.
“……Kuk.”
Lying twisted on the ground, Eunha barely looked up to check her right arm. Only half the arm remained; the rest was torn away, spewing blood.
Staring at the blood gushing out like a fountain, she felt dizzy.
Her body was heavy as steel,
Her breath was hot,
And her mind was fading away. A thought suddenly struck her.
‘That’s enough…’
She had fought hard and killed much.
It was enough. She had done well.
With the last of her strength, she reached for her neck. Her fingers found the stiff military tag.
In case someone, someday…
As he was taking it out so that the military dog tag could be seen outside his shirt, his left arm caught his narrowing field of vision. Precariously hanging over the scarridden wrist—.
‘……Bracelet.’
Mother’s wish bracelet.
So worn out that it would snap if he applied just a bit of force…….
Why?
The moment that bracelet entered his field of vision, his eyelids, which had been lowering further and further, abruptly stopped.
Crack.
He heard a sound like teeth grinding. Squeezing out strength that was no longer there, Eun Ha raised her upper body. Then she steadied her trembling left arm like a persimmon tree and opened her palm.
Pop.
A small flame sprang up like a matchstick. The pathetic flame also wobbled precariously, following her madly shaking hand.
Without hesitation, Eun Ha pressed it to her right forearm.
“Agh……!”
Her tightly bitten lower lip burst, and blood droplets fell along her jaw.
The nauseating smell of burning flesh pricked her nose.
Although a Hunter’s selfhealing power is far greater than that of an ordinary person, it was not enough to help while her arm was being cut off and blood was spurting like a fountain. The only thing she could do now to stop further bleeding was this.
Even as her strength was drained and her upper body rolled on the ground, Eun Ha didn’t extinguish the flame.
“Aaaah!”
Who had said it? That the most painful sensation a person can feel is burning. Although she had held on until her lower lip burst and her veins popped out blue, Eun Ha couldn’t suppress her scream.
“Ugh…… Ah……!”
In the silent gate where there was not a soul, only her desperate scream echoed faintly.
The pain was so severe that death would have been preferable.
Eventually, when her flesh was scorched black and the blood slowly stopped.
Ding!
[Update has been completed.]
The cheerful BGM mixed with tinnitus reached her ears, clouded by pain.
‘Re… ward….’
Just before losing consciousness, Eun Ha’s finger twitched.
It felt as though something cold and sharp had touched the tip of her finger.
…….
…….
[Congratulations! You have acquired ‘Elegant Parasol’ of ‘Black Flame Princess’!]My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
