Siod, after finishing the aftermath at the academy, returned and first looked for Larisa.
“Lara, are you okay?”
“The bleeding is severe, so she hasn’t regained consciousness.”
Guinevere spoke with a worried expression. William, who seemed more composed than Guinevere, whose anxiety was evident, looked more concerning.
He patted William’s shoulder and said, “I’ll take a look.”
Larisa’s condition didn’t show any major injuries on the surface. If the bleeding was the only issue, replenishing blood volume seemed likely to restore consciousness.
After a brief hesitation, Siod erected a barrier in the room and said, “I’m going to… feed Larisa with blood.”
“What?”
William made a hesitant expression. Siod explained with an uneasy face.
“Dragon’s blood is close to pure natural magic, so it works for any creature… like a panacea.”
“A panacea?”
“While it may not be a cure-all, it’s something like that… but this is a secret. Understand? It’s an absolute secret between us.”
Siod warned the two. They nodded at each other, looking into each other’s faces. Still uneasy, Siod warned William.
“Especially you, William. If this gets out, humans might hunt you. You’re the most vulnerable among us.”
“The most vulnerable…”
“Since ancient times, humans wanting to hunt dragons are cunning and vicious. Do you think we’re hiding for no reason? Humans are such repulsive creatures, full of poison.”
“I understand. Please start quickly.”
Siod, urged by Guinevere, began dripping blood onto Larisa’s lips, one drop at a time. Watching this, Guinevere, looking frustrated, spoke.
“Do it a bit faster. Why are you feeding her so slowly?”
“Isn’t it too much to feed her my blood?”
“Then should I feed her my blood? Step aside.”
“No, this is enough!”
Siod, standing firm like a pillar next to Larisa, responded.
“Larisa has innate magic deficiency, so giving too much might cause side effects. I’m carefully adjusting it.”
“Aren’t you an old-timer? How many have you saved?”
“…”
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Siod sighed deeply.
It took a whole day for Larisa to regain consciousness. The princess rushed barefoot upon hearing the news and embraced Larisa.
“I’m really relieved. I was worried thinking Larisa might not wake up.”
Larisa, looking at the tear-soaked face of the princess, was puzzled and patted her back.
“I’m fine, Your Highness. But how did I end up here…”
“I couldn’t leave because I was so worried about Larisa. I couldn’t bear the thought of Larisa not waking up.”
Larisa glanced at William and Guinevere, who were looking at her with concern, and said, “I’m sorry for causing you worry.”
“Lara, you… never mind.”
He wanted to scold her for unnecessarily risking her life to protect someone like the princess.
However, as it was not the time to speak in front of the princess, Guinevere, seeing Larisa trying to comfort her, barely swallowed her anger.
“Mother, please go now. I’ll be here.”
Guinevere nodded at William’s words.
“Yeah, I need to rest a bit. There’s a lot to do.”
Once he fully recovered his magic, his plan was to capture the professors from the Department of Magic who cast Meteor. After Guinevere opened the door and left, William spoke to the princess.
“Your Highness, you should also return now. A carriage from the palace is waiting.”
“I don’t want to. I won’t leave until I see Larisa recovering.”
“It’s already been a day. With the incident and not returning to the palace, Their Majesties must be worried.”
Larisa blinked in surprise.
“You’ve been here all this time?”
“What else could I do? Larisa was protecting me, and it turned out like this.”
When the princess started crying again, Larisa was startled and quickly patted her back.
“Don’t cry, Your Highness. I’m perfectly fine.”
“But you didn’t wake up for a whole day.”
“Still, I feel perfectly fine. Look.”
Larisa suddenly sat up from the bed. William flinched.
“Lara, if you suddenly get up like that…”
“It’s okay. Feeling energetic, see?”
Larisa confidently stepped down from the bed and walked like a walnut-cracking soldier. The princess smiled through tearful eyes and warmly embraced Larisa.
“I’m so relieved!”
“Ugh, it’s hard to breathe, Your Highness.”
“Oh, come on, get yourself together. Lie down now.”
She hadn’t expected to be so grateful for fulfilling the natural role as a knight. Larisa felt awkward as she lay down on the bed.
At that moment, a sharp knock was heard.
“It’s Prosch.”
William opened the door himself. Dr. Prosch, who entered the room, pushed up his monocle and handed over a glass bottle of medicine.
“It’s a medicine to relieve congestion, so don’t leave any behind and take it all.”
“Shall I feed her?”
The princess grabbed the medicine bottle and pushed it into Larisa’s face. Larisa looked embarrassed.
“No, my hands are fine…”
“Hurry and take it, Larisa.”
“I’ll take it. Ugh.”
The princess forcibly fed Larisa the medicine and smiled proudly.
“I’ll feed you meals too, Larisa.”
“No, it’s okay.”
“Don’t refuse. And call me Lizzy. Can I call you Lala?”
“Oh, that’s a bit…”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
