Tame or Be Captured (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 091
He was someone who had overly empathized with fairy tales meant for children, but the events that truly happened in the story were far too frightening for him.
Asha quickly read on to the next part to reassure him.
“After the flower died, the beautiful world turned barren. The land became utterly desolate, water stopped flowing and rotted in place, fire scorched the earth and dried up the water, and the wind blew dust storms all across the world. Soon, no life could be found anywhere in the land of Etzheim. Everyone grieved the flower’s death and repented.”
Karaf lowered his head, covering his eyes with both hands like the tragic protagonist of a story.
“One day, God Etzheim, moved by pity for them, granted them a single flower seed. It was the very seed the Spirit of the Flower had left behind with all its strength before passing away. The Spirit of the Wind had unknowingly carried this seed stuck to its body all along.”
Karaf flinched slightly.
“When the seed returned to the earth once more, everyone did their utmost this time to protect the flower. At last, the Spirit of the Flower was able to return to them, and the Etzheim Empire regained its peace and happiness.”
Although the tale ended happily, Karaf’s expression remained far from cheerful.
After a long silence, he quietly asked,
“…So, do minority groups grow up hearing fairy tales like this from childhood?”
“It’s a famous fairy tale, though it’s changed slightly over time.”
“The situation in the tale feels exactly like my own right now…”
Karaf let out a self-deprecating laugh.
“What if… I’m not the flower seed from that story? What would happen then…?”
He seemed to have been thinking about the second flower while listening to the tale.

Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
The female CEO who doesn’t want to get married with a divorce agreement in hand × The male archaeological researcher who will only get married if he’s sure he can get divorced
What terrible phrasing. ‘He couldn’t possibly take her…’ She is the empress of the empire, Jackel needs to get with the program. She has shown herself to be stronger and more resilient than anyone else in this novel.
I’m getting the impression that the title of empress doesn’t count for as much as one might think in this empire.
