“Did you really come here because you had something urgent to say? Or did you come to stop me from drinking with Prince Klein? The timing is suspicious,” Latrasil said, following Duke Atraxil with suspicion.
But the news he brought was indeed urgent and significant.
“Your Majesty, evidence has been found that Prince Tula attempted to bring in foreign forces to oppose you.”
“Foreign forces?”
Latrasil exclaimed sharply in surprise.
“Which country?”
“The exact nation is unknown. However, the neighboring nations supported you, and Karisen immediately sent the prince to your harem, so it is highly likely not those nations.”
“Ah, that’s interesting.”
Latrasil sighed in exasperation.
“He tried so many things within half a year. Did he use the ‘Seal of the Sovereign’?”
“Yes, because the ‘Seal of the Sovereign’ was always within the palace.”
The ‘Seal of the Sovereign’ had the same effect as the emperor’s signature, its power was absolute in diplomatic activities and treaty conclusion with foreign countries.
‘This is serious.’
Latrasil frowned in worry.
“If he tried to bring in foreign forces using the ‘Seal of the Sovereign’, he must have concluded an agreement through documents and there must have been some reward. That crazy son.”
“Yes. The countries that made a contract with Prince Tula might ask you to fulfill the contract, emphasizing that the ‘Seal of the Sovereign’ was used.”
Latrasil groaned and rubbed his forehead.
“Tula, you really left a mess to the very end.”
If they were a friendly nation, they would not make such an absurd demand as asking Latrasil to fulfill the contract that Prince Tula unilaterally made. It would completely distort the relationship between the two countries.
However, since a significant number of friendly nations had already supported Latrasil, it was highly likely that the foreign forces that Tula tried to bring in were hostile nations.
Would such nations really understand the situation in Tarium at that time and accept that the ‘Seal of the Sovereign’ was issued by the wrong person?
Probably not. It was highly likely that they would pretend not to know, even if they did.
“Duke Atraxil, first find out which country concluded what agreement. Although they may not have officially recorded it, if they stamped the seal, there must be a document somewhere.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Latrasil nodded.
“….”
“….”
“…?”
But Duke Atraxil was strange. The report seemed to have already ended. He didn’t say anything, nor did he leave.
As a result, an awkward silence filled the room.
Latrasil didn’t have anything else to say to the Duke. She couldn’t keep repeating the story about the foreign forces, about which she didn’t yet know. Eventually, Latrasil stared blankly at Duke Atraxil and asked.
“Do you have anything else to say?”
When Latrasil asked, Duke Atraxil seemed to have gained courage, and asked seriously with a more cautious face than when he reported earlier.
“Um… Your Majesty, when would be a good time to bring in our Ranamun?”
The question didn’t sound serious, but Latrasil frowned and only awkwardly raised the corners of her mouth.
‘Duke Atraxil seems to want his son to become a consort.’
It was surprising when he first submitted documents to make him a harem member. But it was even more surprising that he came to her outright and gave off the vibe that he wanted to bring him in quickly.
Looking at his blushing face, he seemed to be embarrassed to ask this question…
‘But what should I do?’
Latrasil rolled her eyes. Since she was asked, she had to answer. But the chief eunuch had not yet chosen the other three members of the harem.
And Latrasil didn’t intend to bring Ranamun in until the other harem members were chosen.
Even though his status and position are predictably high. If Ranamun is first introduced to the harem now, the other harem members who will come in afterwards will obviously be suppressed by Ranamun.
Maybe Prince Klein, who is high in status and independent, can avoid losing his face?
‘It can’t be.’
She didn’t create the harem for sorting out rankings.
The harem members should capture the attention of the nobles by fiercely fighting each other until they are ready to accept a consort. She absolutely couldn’t allow a hierarchy to form within the harem.
Having finished thinking, Latrasil answered honestly.
“When all five have been chosen. All of them will be taken in on the same day.”
“But Prince Klein…”
“He’s a foreigner, isn’t he? Since he’s come from afar, he’s been given temporary accommodations, he has yet to officially enter the harem. He hasn’t ascended to the position of a consort yet.”
Duke Atraxil seemed dissatisfied, but grudgingly accepted.
“I see. Understood, Your Majesty.”
[This is the time separator]Upon returning to his mansion, Duke Atraxil immediately sought out Ranamun.
“Ranamun! Son!”
It was late, but Ranamun rarely went to bed early. He was surely still awake.
“Master.”
“Where is Ranamun?”
“Young master is in the study.”
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.
