Whether to head towards the monastery after escaping the mercenary group to meet her, or to attempt to kill in her pursuit.
As long as his life was not the same as before, he could only avoid sudden death if all the premises were ‘for Evelia.’
It seemed like fate. That he could only live if Evelia lived.
With that in mind, he wanted to protect her without considering means or methods. So that he would not even dream of something like suicide 5 years later.
With that determination, he left the mercenary group without hesitation and headed towards the southern border. His first murder was Liurian Petrov, the crown prince of the empire.
Though killing was something he had done countless times as a mercenary, when dealing with Liurian, he felt an indescribable chill run through his entire body.
As he bled to death with a face identical to his own, he felt as though he was dying too.
How could there be someone so exactly like him?
But his doubt did not last long.
He had to trample the battlefield in place of Liurian, whom he had killed with his own hands, and had to repeat death and regression several times because of the variables that arose afterward.
Leading the yearlong war with the Elia Kingdom to victory and meeting Evelia, he had to repeat countless deaths.
He grew tired of endless regressions and the repeated killings that came with it but ran on without stopping, thinking only of her bright smile.
And now he was here.
“Your Majesty.”
At the sudden sound of a sweet voice, Kalif blinked his eyes. Above him was Evelia, who had sat up straight in her place.
A heavy breath rose to his throat, and his chest felt stifled, as if a lump had settled there.
The time he had endured to see this face was immeasurable. It was just a terrible time.
He wanted to do as Felix advised more than anyone else. He wanted to confess everything to her and his feelings.
That way, at least he wouldn’t have to torment Evelia like this.
But the reason he couldn’t was all too clear.
In a few of the lives he had lived after the terrible war, where he had met Evelia, he had already revealed his identity.
At that time, Evelia staggered back with a terrified face and eventually collapsed in her place. Then, as if facing something far more horrifying than the dreadful time she had endured, she looked at him, at Calif Dewit.
Just receiving his gaze felt like tearing out her heart. Still, there was no time to tend to her own wounds. It was because she, engulfed in shock, began to agonize.
Unable to bear the sight, he chose death for himself. He had to go back to the mercenary barracks five years ago and repeat the tiresome time, but it was better than watching Evelia dying.
He had to have similar experiences several times thereafter. Failing to become a perfect Liurian, he repeated unplanned mistakes, and each time, Evelia either withered away, unable to accept his existence, or made an irrevocable choice.
That’s why.
Calif was afraid. Going back to the beginning and repeating his life due to a single wrong choice was horrifying, but what was even worse was having to face Evelia’s tragic choices with his own eyes.
But could he trust Felix’s words? Although he must hide his identity, could he reveal his feelings for her?
Even though he still can’t take off Liurian Petrov’s mask, still.
“Your Majesty.”
“…….”
“……Surely, you haven’t been guarding my side all this time, have you?”
Evelia asked, looking at him, still lost in confusion, with longing eyes that regarded him so beautifully.
Facing her eyes fully, Calif had a premonition.
He had a feeling that the tragic moment he never wanted to experience again might be approaching right in front of him.
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.
