Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 389
Ariadne was momentarily speechless at Grand Duke Aud’s explosive declaration. The 100,000 ducats of Alfonso’s military funds had actually been Queen Marguerite’s secret reserve.
No matter what Grand Duke Aud claimed, it wasn’t his money. The problem was that Ariadne couldn’t arbitrarily expose this fact herself.
‘If they ask Her Majesty the Queen by what means she amassed such a large sum…’
It was a question she simply couldn’t answer. Even if she feigned ignorance, it would inevitably cause trouble later—after all, Leo III of the Etruscan Kingdom was surely watching with sharp, critical eyes.
Ariadne glanced swiftly at Alfonso’s face.
Alfonso was gritting his teeth, glaring fixedly at Grand Duke Aud.
He must be deeply conflicted. Ariadne decided to give Alfonso time. Only he could make the choice—to sacrifice his mother’s honor in exchange for bringing down Aud.
Taking advantage of this pause, Grand Duchess Larisa quietly crawled out from the corridor. She seemed to be off searching for something.
However, unlike Ariadne, someone else had no intention of handing Alfonso the reins—Raphael.
‘Ever since taking priestly vows, he seems to be sowing even more hesitation everywhere…’
Having already told a falsehood before, he calmly opened his mouth. His fluent Ratanian flowed smoothly.
“Forgive my audacity for speaking here, where the continent’s most esteemed figures have gathered.”
When the beautifully handsome young man, who had mingled among the friars, raised his voice, everyone instantly turned to look at him.
A few among them wore disapproving expressions, clearly thinking an unqualified youth had no right to step forward so boldly.
But that faction was swiftly suppressed—thanks to Cardinal de Mare, who was exceptionally quick on the uptake.
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.”
