It was fortunate that I had driven them away; if I had to stick with them throughout the entire victory celebration, I would have truly gone mad.
“A sword, what sword? To kill someone else with that blind weapon?”
Titie recalled the request made by the Countess and clicked her tongue in disdain.
Gellard already had a history of killing someone.
It was a story from before Titie was even registered in the Louvre family.
He often liked to go down to the village and pick fights with the peasants, but that day, he went too far and ended up killing someone.
It was fortunate that the deceased was a peasant and the Count could settle it with money. Otherwise, Titie might have ended up with the label of a murderer’s sister.
There wasn’t a single thing they asked for that she wanted to grant.
But if she refused, they would nag her until she gave in.
“Fine, I’ll give the damn sword. What’s the big deal?”
There was no need to specifically ask the Emperor.
She just had to find a plausible sword and say it was a gift from the Emperor to Gellard.
As long as the sword wasn’t pointed at her, it didn’t matter to whom it was given.
Although she had decided to give the sword, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
“Stupid fools.”
How could every single member of a family she was supposed to rely on for support be so foolish?
She almost got a cramp in her face trying to maintain her expression at the banquet hall earlier.
The thought of their stupid faces made her irritation flare up again.
Nearby, a mute maid was cleaning up the broken glass.
Titie stared down at her and stomped on Luna’s hand.
“Ouch?!”
“Shut up.”
Under the maid’s hand, crushed by her foot, were sharp glass shards.
The glass pierced the soft flesh, and soon the hand was stained with blood.
“Ah, really, my feet hurt. What is this?”
The pretty shoes were hurting her feet, having been worn for too long.
Because the Count and his wife had stayed in the palace late, she was still in her banquet attire.
The irritation remained, but seeing the deer writhing like a bug under her feet somehow made her feel a bit better.
Titie arrogantly raised her chin.
“You there, prepare my bath.”
“Yes!”
A maid hurried off to the bathroom.
Only after Titie stood up did she remove her foot from the maid’s hand.
“Don’t even think about entering the bathroom, just clean up the room. Restore it to its original state, got it?”
The thought of her luxurious bath being contaminated with dirty blood was revolting.
Luna nodded her head.
Titie clicked her tongue as she looked down at her.
“Being mute makes you look even more pathetic.”
She had deliberately hired a flawed maid to leave a good impression on others, but now regretted it as unnecessary.
“Well, I can replace a maid at any time.”
If she really got on her nerves, she could just get rid of her right away.
But that was only possible after she had built up her image.
The bath was ready by then.
Titie entered the tub filled with flower petals and bath salts.
The tension from wreaking havoc earlier eased, and her body relaxed, but her feet still throbbed from wearing the shoes all day.
Leaning her head at the end of the tub, Titie lifted her feet above the water surface.
“Massage my feet.”
The maid quickly applied scented oil and began to massage her feet.
Seeing the maid hustle at her mere word brought a smile to her face.
This maid, an African lioness anthro, had joined Titie due to her family’s downfall.
“This is exactly what I want.”
Kneeling beneath her feet, regardless of being carnivores or herbivores.
Apart from being an albino and needing to be cautious of the sun, her physical condition wasn’t weak at all.
Sometimes, pretending to be weak was annoying, but Titie knew well that it could be a useful weapon if utilized properly.
Opening her eyes, which sparkled fiercely, she muttered, “I’ll kill him.”
Just a mere rabbit, after all.
She remembered vividly the face of the animal that openly mocked her at the banquet.
And she wouldn’t let that coyote off the hook either.
Vowing revenge, Titie’s gaze drifted downwards.
‘As long as I have this, anything is possible.’
She lovingly caressed the Emperor’s name tattooed above her right breast.
Before receiving the Emperor’s name, Titie had lived in the back alleys of a distant region.
Abandoned by her parents when she was very young, she survived as a pickpocket and later as a flower-selling woman.
All she had accumulated to survive was malice and venom.
Being an albino, she was often targeted by ruffians.
She didn’t want to return to her past life of surviving on hard bread.
‘Once I completely win over His Majesty, I can dispose of the Louvre family.’
The Count’s family was also of deer anthro lineage, where she took refuge, but in reality, they weren’t even cousins.
It was frustrating that this wasn’t the time for that yet.
Above all, it was crucial not to upset ‘that man’.
Titie rose from the water.
Drying off and brushing her hair were tasks for the maids, not her.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
