“Last night, on the way to Evelia. Did you happen to feel like someone might be following us?”
Felix asked in a low, sinking voice. The nuance seemed quite frustrating, as if questioning why Caliph couldn’t even notice something like that.
Caliph stared into the air in confusion, trying to recall the events of last night. However, no matter how he searched his mind, he was completely unaware of any movements following him.
Of course, that was natural. The path leading to Eve was always like that. Captivated only by the thought of wanting to meet her as soon as possible, nothing else occupied his mind.
Caliph didn’t bother to voice those thoughts. Nevertheless, Felix, who had already neatly read his mind, sighed deeply as if he could guess that the forthcoming words wouldn’t be pleasant.
“Hey, Caliph. I’ve been telling you since last time. I’ve started sensing an unusual energy.”
“…”
“Well, now you can’t afford to be so careless. Nothing major has happened yet, but in terms of danger, it’s much more precarious than a war with the Elia Kingdom.”
“…”
“It wasn’t a subtle movement, and it was just the action of an ordinary Eungae. If you can’t even sense that, what will you do?”
Felix sharply rebuked Caliph. However, Caliph’s mind was only half back to normal.
Even Felix’s words, sharply criticizing him for not sensing the movements of the seemingly ordinary Eungae Relia, felt pitifully irrelevant to him.
Certainly, that day, there was an important meeting with Viscountess Caroline, and he had been completely occupied with thoughts related to securing Eve’s safety. However, even if that was the case, he should have maintained at least some level of vigilance.
“Hah.”
Caliph, grasping his temples, sank onto the bed with a heavy sigh.
“You’re right. I let my guard down.”
With a disheartened voice, he reviewed the events of last night once again. Not being able to perceive the movements of Relia following him was a problem in itself, but it was also necessary to confirm whether he had made another mistake due to being absent-minded.
After some time, he could only look at Felix with a stiff expression.
“Could Relia possibly know about me?”
“…”
“How far has Relia been following me? Could she have been watching even when I met Eve?”
Caliph urgently asked as if he could barely breathe. Felix’s non-response conveyed that the forthcoming words would be far from pleasant.
“Could Relia possibly know about me?”
“…”
“How far has Relia been following me? Could she have been watching even when I met Eve?”
Caliph urgently asked as if he could barely breathe. Felix’s non-response conveyed that the forthcoming words would be far from pleasant.
This was an unexpected situation. Just as I was about to start my plan, I got exposed. What’s more, to Relia, whom I was least concerned about.
Caliph couldn’t suppress his frustration towards his own carelessness but tried to regain composure. In times like this, he couldn’t afford to be flustered.
Anyway, the opponent was Relia. Even though Yustia was behind her, if he could find a way, he could deceive them again.
“I’ll find a way. I should be able to deceive Relia again.”
“If she had already met the Empress before you could deceive her again. And if she mentioned your name.”
“…”
“What will you do then?”
Felix precisely questioned Caliph about his thoughts until a moment ago. In response, Caliph furrowed his brow.
“Well, Relia and Yustia are the only ones there. Yustia is guarding Duke Ganet, so she won’t let the Duke hear anything. That’s enough. Relia and Yustia…”
Caliph, who hadn’t completely erased his confusion, spoke without much coherence. Listening quietly, Felix, as if considering it unworthy of further discussion, ruthlessly interrupted him.
“It seems like you’re remembering my words vaguely.”
Felix, with a frustrated expression still intact, scratched Caliph’s forehead with a touch full of irritation. It was clearly a sarcastic attitude.
Caliph had reached his limit as well. His voice, now gushing out, sounded like the growl of a beast.
“Don’t annoy me more. It’s already complicated to death.”
“Do I look like I’m just annoying you in your eyes?”
“Hey.”
“Didn’t I kindly explain to you? The evil aura I’m talking about is not as simple or manageable as you think. It’s a formidable force that even I, who ruled as a god of that land for hundreds of years, couldn’t withstand, and eventually had to choose to be sealed together.”
Felix unleashed a fierce and unprecedented force in his speech. Caliph, faced with such an unfamiliar appearance, couldn’t say anything.
Caliph’s bewildered silence, unusual for him, didn’t make Felix hesitate for a moment.
“If you want to protect Evelia, you should get your act together more than ever.”
“…”
“A once peaceful kingdom has perished. Even I, who ruled as a god for hundreds of years, succumbed to that fatal force and had no choice but to be sealed together. It’s a power so deadly that it can even overwhelm someone like me.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
