Grabbing onto Syod’s heart, Ginevra felt surprisingly calm. Using the magical prototype to reverse time with a dragon’s heart was not a problem.
Her obsession with researching time regression magic was to make the complex combination of William’s alchemy and magic into her own, hence making the bewildering time regression magic her own.
Currently, she had to sacrifice William’s heart for the prototype to function. However, if she could replace it with Syod’s heart, she wouldn’t need to further research to use magic with only her magical power.
Though she felt sorry for Syod, a deep sense of relief washed over her. It was as if she had never experienced such tranquility in her 50 years, or perhaps since birth.
“Why is Mother here too?”
“Just curious about what you two are learning.”
Today was Sunday, a day for Larisa’s lessons. Larisa had never thought that Ginevra would observe, making her feel a hundred times more pressured.
“Aren’t you busy?”
“Well.”
William was left speechless. The day Ginevra said she wasn’t busy was like the sun rising from the west.
“Well, then, what shall we start with today?”
“Please watch me play the piano!”
“Sure.”
Larisa finished her performance flawlessly with her fern-like hands. Though the hopeful eyes seeking praise remained, this time Syod applauded without hesitation.
“We agreed to only do one piece a month, so let’s learn the next one later, okay?”
“Yes. Instead, let’s study something else!”
“Larisa, do you really enjoy studying that much?”
“Yes!”
Though Syod still suspected whether Larisa might be overdoing it, he decided to trust William, seeing him leave Larisa alone without any particular concerns.
“For me, I want to become a pianist. I also want to become a translator. And I want to run a business, be a painter, and more.”
“You have so many things you want to do?”
“Yes. I’ll learn everything and do it all.”
Ginevra, who had been quietly listening, spoke up.
“If you need more teachers, tell me. If your qualifications are in doubt.”
“I’ve tried everything too, you know?”
Larisa asked with sparkling eyes, looking at Syod.
“You’ve tried everything? Really?”
“Yeah. After rolling around in the human world for about a thousand years, it’s rare not to try everything, rather.”
“A thousand years?”
Ah. Except for Larisa, the three people simultaneously locked eyes with each other.
“You haven’t told Larisa about that…?”
“Huh? About what?”
“That… Well.”
Ginevra’s gaze wavered. William quietly tilted his head. Syod swallowed his saliva.
“Is it a secret only from me?”
However, the three people could only crumble in the face of Larisa’s tearful plea.
“I see. It’s a secret from me……”
Ginevra was the first to succumb to Larisa’s melancholy voice. Since they were going to get married anyway, Larisa had the right to know about her spouse’s lineage. After quickly rationalizing, she ordered Syod.
“Just tell her.”
“Well, the thing is… I’m actually a dragon…”
“Huh?”
“Why, haven’t you seen it in fairy tales?”
“The wicked dragon that kidnaps princesses?”
“Yeah, that!”
Larisa’s face turned pale.
“Oh, but I haven’t kidnapped any princesses. I don’t do such things.”
“T-then, what about William…?”
William quietly closed the book he was reading.
“Lara, dragons are actually gentle creatures.”
“Huh?”
“Humans are more vicious. Dragons are… Well, like fairies.”
“…Huh?”
“Fairies help humans in trouble. In fact, dragons really like humans.”
William desperately explained. He couldn’t understand why he was making excuses for dragons, but at this moment, he felt it was necessary when he saw Larisa’s frightened face.
“See? Look at who between Mom and I is more vicious later.”
“…”
“William, do you want to die?”
Ginevra stared at her son incredulously.
‘He’s making use of that…’
Syod admired his son’s courage, and Larisa reluctantly accepted Ginevra’s intimidating demeanor.
Anyway, inspired by William’s idea, Syod began to unfold the argument that the kind fairies in picture books who help humans are actually dragons hiding their true identity.
“Look carefully, Larisa. There are no fairies like that in this world. Only dragons and spirits. However, spirits can’t reveal their true forms without a contractor, so all the fairies in fairy tales have made contracts with someone.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. Watch.”
Syod thought it would be a good opportunity to summon a spirit and show it.
[Sylph] When Syod invoked the sylph with a dragon spell, a gust of wind swept through the closed living room, and a small, sparkling girl appeared.“This one is a sylph, the spirit of the wind.”
“Wow…!”
Larisa admired the tiny fairy sitting on Syod’s palm like a doll. She was truly a fairy, as if she had popped out of a fairy tale.
“Looks just like a real fairy.”
The sylph, with slender legs crossed, sat down, flipping her hair behind her ears. Larisa’s eyes sparkled with amazement.
At the same time, Ginevra’s eyes twinkled.
“It truly exists. The sylph, the spirit of the wind…!”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
