Larissa was getting ready to attend basic school, while William was preparing to enroll in the academy’s knight division.
Having decided on the knight division not long ago, William wasn’t worried.
He had always had superior physical abilities, especially keen reflexes. Even in his first sparring sessions, he could dodge attacks easily, though attacking was more challenging.
“You should pass without any trouble,” said the retired knight Hedel had brought in as a swordsmanship teacher, chuckling. Larissa asked him:
“Grandpa, is William doing well?”
“Of course. He’s doing splendidly.”
“You’re not just saying that because he’s a Lodante, are you?”
“Ha-ha, I might be a bit biased, but even without that, he really should have no trouble passing. He dodges so nimbly, like a clever little mouse.”
“A mouse?”
William, who was balancing on one leg, got hit on the shin by the teacher with a wooden sword. He nearly fell over and shouted in protest.
“Ow, why did you hit me!”
“It’s a test. A test. Dodge surprise attacks like this. Ha-ha-ha.”
William and the swordsmanship teacher’s sparring lasted the entire day. William mostly dodged without landing a successful attack, but to the retired knight, he was annoyingly elusive. Having spent his life wielding a sword, the knight was initially scornful of someone with no sword experience aiming for the knight division, but later…
‘He dodges this too? Even that?’
It was astounding. Plus, William’s strength was so good that his
He chuckled at the absurd thought. Nonetheless, it was thanks to this shallow connection that Guinevere’s life had been spared, and she owed him gratitude for that.
Other dragons would not have bothered to recognize her and would have killed Guinevere first.
‘Not that she would be grateful even if I explained that I saved her life…’
It didn’t matter. If he didn’t say anything, it was fine. After dealing with Guinevere’s child discreetly…
‘Would she cry?’
He had never seen her cry before. His steps halted as Siod was caught in a moment of conflict.
‘Do I really have to kill her?’
There might be a better way than killing. He had volunteered impulsively, not wanting Guinevere to die, but the more he thought about it, the less straightforward it seemed.
Resuming his walk, his steps were heavier this time. He then had an idea.
‘Ah, yes. I can make that child swear an oath as a mage.’
As long as the perpetrator doesn’t use time regression magic again, that’s all that matters. Then, the egg would hatch, and the dragons would return to their leisurely sleep without meddling in human affairs.
Siod strolled casually in the direction where he felt magical energy, his mood lightening again at the thought of exploring the human world.
Since there were still 11 years until Larissa became an adult, they decided to prepare for immediate matters.

It was astounding. Plus, William’s strength was so good that his sword strikes were quite fierce when he decided to attack. The most vexing part was that as time passed, only the old knight tired, while William remained energetic.
‘The world will be amazed.’

Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
