And when Icarus opened his eyes again, the room was dark.

‘Could it be… Did I just sleep through everything…?’

He felt pathetic about himself.

To sleep so peacefully in a situation where royal knights might chase him at any moment.

However, despite the realistic thought that he needed to leave this place and find a place to hide, his body didn’t react.

His arms and legs were heavy, and even blinking his eyes wasn’t easy.

Moreover, the fatigue from not sleeping for a while seemed to catch up, and drowsiness kept overwhelming him.

That’s when it happened.

‘…?’

The door began to open very slowly.

‘Could it be the royal knights?’

Icarus squinted and checked the visitor’s face.

Fortunately, it was the little girl who had been by his side before he fell asleep.

The petite girl cautiously closed the door, as if she didn’t want to wake the sleeping Icarus.

Confirming that the girl had approached the bed slowly with rather exaggerated movements as if trying to muffle her footsteps, Icarus closed his eyes tightly.

Soon, the towel that he didn’t even know was on his forehead before was removed, and a new wet towel covered his forehead.

‘Oops! The tea…’

He almost made a sound, but he managed to hold it back.

The girl might have pitied him, injured and collapsed, and saved him with tremendous care.

However, if she realized he was awake, the girl would undoubtedly call for adults, and they would come to Icarus, asking why he was bleeding and collapsed in such a place.

If he said he was a hunter and got injured while catching a mountain beast, it might serve as some excuse.

That is, if he couldn’t distinguish between wounds caused by a sword and those caused by a wild animal.

So, in his current state, where even opening his eyes was difficult, it wasn’t the right time.

‘If I want to report a suspicious person, I would have done so earlier…’

If that were the case, it would have reached the ears of the royal knights who were wandering around looking for Icarus.

‘It’s better to stay here until I can move my body.’

While Icarus was looking for a reason not to leave this place immediately, the girl suddenly started talking.

“There’s a secret story about the king’s ears being like donkey ears that people gossip about in the bamboo forest. Have you heard of it by any chance?”

King’s ears like donkey ears? What on earth is she talking about?

Icarus barely managed to keep his forehead from wrinkling involuntarily.

“Ah, even if I know that story, I can’t answer right now.”

Icarus listened to the girl’s calm and gentle voice with his eyes tightly closed.

The girl’s voice was calm, lacking the lively and spirited feeling typical of her age. So, her clear voice was quite pleasant to listen to.

“In fact, I’m keeping a tremendous secret. I haven’t told anyone yet. When you open your eyes, I’ll tell you everything, oppa! So I hope you get better soon…”

Whether she believed he was unconscious or not, the girl told him various stories.

What she had for lunch, the blacksmith in the workshop seeming to like Wendy, and such trivial stories.

After chatting for a while, the girl suddenly opened up about her pain.

“You know, I don’t have a mom. She passed away not long ago. So, I’m here at this villa because of the funeral.”

The girl spoke matter-of-factly. However, her voice had a faint mix of sadness.
“After the funeral, I’ll go back to where I originally lived. This place isn’t suitable for me to live. Even if I go back, there won’t be anything interesting to do… ”

Her somewhat bright and lively voice turned a bit gloomy.

“Actually, I don’t have any friends. Everyone thinks I tried to kill my close friend. So, I guess everyone finds me uncomfortable.”

As if trying to change the somber atmosphere, the girl spoke a bit more brightly.

“Oh! Come to think of it, there’s one person. A boy, but he’s a bit scary. He might kill me someday…”

And at that moment, Icarus subtly opened his eyes without even realizing it.

“Huh…? Are you awake?”

Seemingly surprised, the girl’s eyes widened.

Was it because she had poured out her feelings a moment ago?

Soon, the milky white cheek, like an apple, blushed.

“…No.”

“What do you mean by ‘no’?”

“There’s no one in the world without a mother.”

The girl, looking as if she didn’t understand, slightly furrowed her cute eyebrows, but Icarus bluntly retorted.

“If there were no mother, you wouldn’t have been born.”

“…That’s true.”

The girl, who seemed to be lost in thought for a moment, lifted her gaze and met eyes with Icarus.

And she gave a faint smile.

‘Ah… again.’

At that moment, an irresistible drowsiness overwhelmed Icarus.

What kind of medicine did they give him…?

‘Just a little more, a little more, and she seemed like she would have smiled broadly…’

Regretting, Icarus fell back into a deep sleep.

Although he couldn’t count the exact days, Icarus stayed in that place for a while.

The recovery speed of his wounds was fast, and the burning pain was no longer felt.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)

Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.

Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.

Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.

“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”

Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.

A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.

“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”

Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.

Gu Sui: “……”

He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?

Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.

Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.

Hmm… she looked a little familiar.

It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.

Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.

“Finally, I found you.”
