Again, I was taken aback. It was unexpected for Klaus to be so clear with Rumi.
I thought he might leave some room for the future since she’s the daughter of the Mechlinger Duke, practically next in line for the position of Crown Princess.
“It’s not pleasant to make a woman cry.”
Klaus chuckled weakly.
Honestly, Rumi had it coming. She relied solely on the clichés of villainess transmigration novels and acted recklessly. She barely did anything right except for hijacking Lady Evangeline’s events at the beginning.
Rumi must be crying her eyes out by now. But it’s not like Klaus can sleep peacefully either, being troubled all day.
I consoled him softly.
“It’s because Your Highness is kind-hearted.”
It ached.
Rumi finally did as she said. She made an impression in Klaus’s heart.
Even though she was rejected once, her actions henceforth could very well earn his affection again. There are clichés of a remorseful man regretting his cold treatment after the villainess changes.
What a world favoring the villainess transmigrator.
What am I doing here?
“I kind-hearted? In this empire, you’re probably the only one who’d say that, Sir Müsel.”
Klaus shook his head.
“My mother said I’m heartless. That I treat a woman who loves me too harshly. That I don’t appreciate being loved…”
“But you are suffering over having hurt the Lady. Your pain for having hurt her proves Your Highness’s kindness.”
Lucky you, Rumi. You’ve caused Klaus to drink and agonize over you.
“…….,”
He gazed at me intently.
His gaze was so deep and intense that I instinctively lowered my head, avoiding his eyes.
His low, soothing voice resonated in my ears.
“I… I wanted to be a good ruler.”
Klaus refilled his glass.
“I wanted to be a good person too, but I thought it was more important to be a good ruler. So, whenever those two clashed, I always gave up on being the good person.”
I listened silently to his words.
“But sometimes, like today, I doubt if I’m doing the right thing.”
Klaus slowly emptied his glass.
I asked cautiously, “What specifically is troubling you?”
“Umm, how should I put it… It feels like I’m accumulating another burden, a karmic debt. Like my mother said, someday I might have to face the consequences of all these decisions.”
Regardless of what his mother said, Klaus was a good and kind person.
Truly bad people don’t agonize over such things. They don’t care if someone gets hurt because of them. They just eliminate whatever bothers them, and that’s it.
I was angry on his behalf. That he, being so kind and caring, didn’t realize it himself.
“To me, Your Highness is an incredibly kind and good person.”
I ended up expressing my true feelings.
“In this place, no one else shows me the consideration and respect that you do. It’s because of Your Highness that I’m able to endure.”
It wasn’t a lie.
If there was one thing that brought me solace in this life as Müsel, not knowing how to return home, it was…
Simply…
“Because of Your Highness.”
In this strange world, the only thing that comforted me was the existence of Klaus.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
