Though he knew he shouldn’t feel this way, the Barlock Dukes really had a merciless aspect.

Not a single Duke in history had ever accepted a knight’s oath!

“Don’t know, so you’re asking?”

“Ah, surely I can be of some help, no matter how insignificant?”

Gillian squinted his eyes and smiled at Blat’s words.

“It’s not a matter of being insignificant. Shouldn’t I accept the oath of someone who will likely live longer than me?”

“……”

To think he would take issue with age.

Blat pointed at himself with widened eyes.

“I’m only thirty this year.”

“How old do you think I am?”

With flawless, smooth skin and a youthful appearance, it was hard to determine Gillian’s exact age, but he seemed much younger than Blat.

“Still….”

“Anyway, are the knights able to hold out? Still bickering over such trivial matters?”

“Trivial…!”

Just as Blat was about to raise his voice, he clamped his mouth shut.

After all, the oath wasn’t the most important thing.

Blat quickly stood up and picked up the boxes of potions.

The clinking sound of glass bottles was truly lovely.

“Thank you, Duke.”

“Go ahead.”

Casually waving his hand, Gillian turned his gaze immediately towards Elizabeth.

“Continue the discussion.”

“Yes, it will take some time to regroup. The blizzard is severe, so….”

Closing the door behind him, Gillian’s voice remained calm as he discussed departure times with Elizabeth.

For a moment, Blat choked up again.

Did people know?

How the Barlock Duke, his knights, were defending this ice wall?

With each step, the clinking sound of glass bottles touched his heart.

“…Me?”

“Yes?”

After Blat left, the 6th Castle Captain seemed to be lacking focus.

“Worried? The potion is quite effective; everyone should recover fully.”

“No, I’m not worried.”

“Then what is it?”

When Gillian questioned her, Elizabeth hesitated to answer.

“What is it?”

“…Well.”

“What?”

“I was wondering if there was any potion left.”

Ah.

Gillian faintly smiled at Elizabeth’s words.

“Elizabeth Swan.”

“Yes, Duke.”

“In the shrine, whenever a new Barlock Duke takes the throne, they send ten bottles of potion.”

Caught off guard by the sudden statement, Elizabeth blinked.

“Throughout Barlock history, not a single bottle of potion was used. Until just now.”

“…Ah!”

Though his sentence was complete, Elizabeth’s exclamation came a beat late.

The astonishment was clear in Elizabeth’s gaze as she looked at Gillian.

“Don’t worry about the potions. I won’t leave my knights to waste away.”

“Just how injured are you?”

‘Not a single bottle used in history.’

Was that what had startled Elizabeth?
Gillian stepped back from Elizabeth, who seemed as though she would search his body at any moment.

“What, you didn’t hear Blatt making that fuss?”

Snap, his chin motion gestured toward his own clean shoulder.

“As I suspected, you must be seriously injured. You can’t use your left arm at all.”

“It’s fine. It’s clean now.”

Despite watching him clench and unclench his fist in front of her, Elizabeth didn’t relax her furrowed brow.

On the contrary, she asked,

“What is the reason you go to such lengths to protect the royal family?”

What filled those transparent, bright blue eyes was anger.

This look was familiar to Gillian.

It was an emotion he and those who guarded this fortress had occasionally encountered.

For ages.

So Gillian whispered as he always had,

“It’s not a matter of why. This is simply the Barlock duty.”

“…….”

Elizabeth said nothing further.

But her eyes showed no understanding.

Beneath her long eyelashes, the bright blue eyes were coldly settled.

Suddenly, when he saw those eyes, someone came to Gillian’s mind.

Someone with equally bright blue eyes, but a gaze warmer than anyone else’s.

Bianca.

Longing for his Queen became unbearable, and Gillian had to clench and unclench his fists to contain it.

He needed to control this overpowering emotion or his legs would impulsively run back to the castle right now.

“What’s the estimated arrival time for the monster horde?”

Gillian pressed Elizabeth for an answer.

He desperately wanted to go ‘home’ now.

“Perhaps they’ll return after the snowstorm clears?”

“That soon?”

Bianca’s eyes widened at Heiley’s words.

“Normally, monster subjugation doesn’t take that long. Including cleanup, a month is more than enough.”

“A horde of monsters? That Gillian is handling alone?”

“Although you may not find it comforting, the Duke is strong. Knights are providing cover, and for the types vulnerable to arrows and spears, longrange attacks are also in play. We even have catapults.”

She couldn’t understand what he meant.

But she did know one thing.

No one in the Barlock territory was entertaining the notion that something could go wrong with Gillian.

Everyone was taking his safe return for granted.

It was reassuring but strangely bitter.

A guaranteed victory? Where does that exist?

Did Duke Barlock always carry such a burden?

Alone, without anyone knowing?

Suddenly, she had the desire to be solely, completely on his side.

“Call the fashion designer, Heiley.”

“Pardon?”

“We need to get fitted for a wedding dress.”

Heiley’s face stiffened at Bianca’s words.

“That would be difficult.”

Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)

One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.

Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

※※※

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.

Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.

Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.

Three days later, neither of them had woken up.

Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.

Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.

The entire internet was in an uproar.

After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.

“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

※※※

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.

Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”

“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”

Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”

Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”

At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.

[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]

①Male pregnancy (highlighted)

The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
