Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 99
“…Who… dares.”
Above the silent banquet hall, the Emperor spat out the words hoarsely. His eyes, burning crimson as if insulted, swept fiercely in every direction.
Wherever his fiery gaze landed, the nobles froze, then shook their heads in startled denial.
Who dares.
The nobles murmured the Emperor’s words under their breaths as they glanced around. But soon, all eyes converged on one spot.
In this entire banquet hall, only one person was smiling brightly—Edwin Bicander Lowell, the sole Grand Duke.
Amid the Emperor’s palpable killing intent, the Grand Duke let out a languid chuckle. A few sharp-eared nobles tilted their heads in confusion—but only briefly.
“Why question the Viscount? What truly matters is whether Her Imperial Highness stayed in Katanta or, as per Your Majesty’s command, visited Bicander territory.”
His smooth voice struck the core of the matter. The atmosphere, which had been pushing to pin blame on the Viscount and sweep the issue under the rug, flipped instantly.
The fates of Viscount Katanta and the Imperial Princess diverged starkly. The Princess’s hands, clutching her dress, trembled violently.
The Princess’s dignity was steadily crumbling to the ground. This situation touched upon a crisis of imperial authority itself.
A crisis for the Imperial House—the most powerful in history.
A chill surged through the hall, as if someone had pressed a blade against their hearts. The Emperor’s hand, gripping the armrest tightly, had long since lost all sensation.
Gleaming red eyes looked at the Emperor with genuine delight.
Provoked by that playful, game-like gaze, the Emperor called out to the Grand Duke as if placing a desperate bet.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
Everything started to go south because you’re sorry excuse of a father. I hope your wife never forgive you even in the afterlife.
