Certainly! Below is the translated passage:

“Count Magine.”

“……”

“Count Magine.”

Only after the Duchess had called three times did Count Magine seem to snap to attention and raise his head.

“Ah, I’m sorry. I was lost in thought for a moment. What did you say?”

“I asked about the outlook for the future magic market.”

The Duchess cocked her head to the side.

The stern expression on Count Magine’s face wasn’t that of someone momentarily distracted and who had missed the flow of the conversation.

Rather, he couldn’t erase the feeling of having been deeply focused on something and then being interrupted.

“Is there a problem with the tea?”

“No, problem what.”

Count Magine quickly covered the mouth of the teacup with his hand. The hot steam settled on his palm, but he didn’t care.

“The taste is just superb? It’s been a long time since I’ve had tea with such a clean aftertaste. Lately, all the tea leaves have been stale, and the taste is so good that I want to ask where you bought it.”

“I’m glad. I was worried that some foreign substance might have gotten in when you were staring at the tea cup.”

The Duchess smiled faintly, but the persistent scrutiny in her eyes showed that she didn’t completely believe the Count’s words.

In the end, Count Magine picked up his tea cup and took a sip.

“No. I guess I was just captivated by the beautiful color of the tea water.”

When Count Magine put down the tea cup again, the image of the training ground reflected on the surface of the water had already disappeared.

“If I was rude, I’m sorry. It wasn’t intentional.”

Count Magine apologized elegantly, but the hand gripping the handle was still a little stiff.

Count Magine gave a faint smile.

“People’s affairs often don’t go as planned, do they?”

Points quickly accumulated.

“Wow, this, can I finish this?”

I laughed heartily, looking at my arrow stuck at 9 points.

Although I hadn’t scored 10 every time, I was still leading, generally scoring 9 or 8 points.

“Okay, the next person can go.”

I looked alternately at Kirian and Hiss, who were waiting their turn.

“You go first, Your Majesty. I, the kind one, will yield.”

Kirian gestured to Hiss.

Hiss shook his head.

“No. I, who am older, should yield.”

“I, who am younger, should yield. After all, Your Majesty, you don’t know what Nuna likes, do you?”

“I think I know better than you, sir.”

I looked at the two of them quarreling with my arms crossed, feeling contemptuous.

Both of them had fallen to 3rd and 4th place, bickering with each other, trying to overtake 2nd place while guarding 3rd place.

I shook my head vigorously.

It was no surprise with Kirian, but even Hiss jumping into such a childish mud fight over such a small wish was shocking.

“I’ll, I’ll go.”

Unable to bear it any longer, Esmeralda stepped forward. She was cautiously shooting one arrow at a time, closely chasing me.

Bang.

“Another 7 points.”

Esmeralda looked at her score with a slightly sullen expression.

“I practiced a lot, but……”

Muttering to herself, she suddenly dropped the bow and curled up, covering her ears. As if she was hearing tinnitus.

“Are you okay?”

As Esmeralda wobbled slightly, I quickly took her hand.

“I’m okay.”

Esmeralda smiled faintly and waved her hand.

“Just…… my ears were itchy.”

It wasn’t a very convincing excuse, but Esmeralda seemed to have no more intention of talking about it.

“Thanks for catching me.”

Esmeralda smiled and gripped my hand tightly.

I was taken aback for a moment. Her hand had a callus that did not suit a child’s hand.

Feeling my gaze on her hand, Esmeralda quickly pulled it away. Then, after glancing around for a moment, she approached Kirian.

“Can I ask for advice on archery?”

Esmeralda smiled with her eyes, captivatingly.

“Can I ask for help since it’s not going as well as I thought?”

Kirian stared at Esmeralda for a moment. Then he pointed at his target with a short finger.

“I can’t shoot well.”

Apparently taken aback by the refusal, Esmeralda only blinked a few times. But she couldn’t argue.

Kirian’s targets were all filled with 5 points, 4 points, and even 1 points.

Kirian listed the reasons he couldn’t help Esmeralda with a short finger.

“I must come in third, so I just learned how to do badly now? So if I teach you how to do well, it’ll be troublesome. If I forget how to do badly and come in first, it won’t do. If you listen to my advice and do so well that you come in first, it’s even worse.”

Kirian seriously said, pointing at me, Esmeralda, himself, and Hiss in turn.

“The ranking is just right now.”

Esmeralda bit her lip and shook her head.

“I see. I’m sorry. I was rude.”

She tried to smile, but it was only awkward. And somehow she seemed scared. It was unmistakable to see her trembling fingertips.

Is there a reason why she must come in first?

There was more than one or two things that bothered her last time and this time.

But when Esmeralda continued to tremble, I finally stepped in.

“I’ll help you. As you can see, I’m quite good at archery.”

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation

One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.

Intro:

To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.

But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.

It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.

This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.

Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.

Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.

“Let’s divorce!”

***

Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.

Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?

But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.

Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.

Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.

In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.

Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”

Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.

He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”

***

Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.

But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.

“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”

Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?

Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
