We did not come down here willingly. We only responded to the call of another high being. Please accept my core and allow my children to return to their homeland.
The high being they were talking about was none other than Bellipor. Since he came down to this land as the intention to kill and annihilate me, it wouldn’t be surprising if he had moved the Siren cluster.
“Fine. You’ve got a promise in my name.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the leader of the Sirens took its hand to the third eye.
Thunk.
The gouged-out eye immediately lost its light and solidified.
The Siren who dedicated the core to me, squeezing out the last bit of strength, sang a mournful song and took her last breath.
“Is it over?”
“Yeah, it’s over.”
The ancient core of the demon, which had lasted for a very long time, was close to the color of Sakaman. As I received it with both hands, it gradually melted into liquid.
Having wet my throat, I drank the core without leaving a drop.
Slippery and cold, it ignited a fire in my stomach like strong liquor.
“Ha!”
My whole body convulsed. The power that spread from my toes to the tips of my fingers instantly made my waist bend like a bow.
‘I can feel the magic core is filled to the brim!’
Thanks to Merem, the magic core given by Pyvel was now about half full. Having gained the power of the Sirens, the remaining half would fill up, making the magic core itself one step larger.
Approaching one step closer to my original power.
“Let’s go up slowly, Leo.”
“Yeah, we should.”
“When we get near the surface, release the barrier. It will be cold, so don’t be too surprised.”
“Your body temperature is so hot that I didn’t even realize it was cold.”
Having greedily swallowed the magic power and feeling good, I responded lazily.
With this concentrated power!
‘I should thank Bellipor for this.’
Thanks to him, I could consume such advanced magic power.
‘He probably didn’t know, since he has never been a lord. Even a Named Monster would willingly offer its core in front of a lord.’
Bellipor. All my dull brother could do was command monsters. Even that command wasn’t effective enough, making it pitiful.
What’s the use of spitting out commands to the air!
“Cough, cough!”
“Your Majesty! Are you alright!!!”
Merem, who pulled me up with all his strength, swam against the current.
Knights hanging on the railing shouted with pale faces, and I coughed up a field of coughing.
“Your Majesty!”
Shailo, who found me, stepped on the air as if flying down and reached out with both arms.
Merem, with his cold tongue, seemed to be saying there was nothing he could do, so he let go of me. I was safely deposited in Shailo’s arms.
Meanwhile, Merem held onto only one rope and climbed up to the ship. He had truly impressive arm strength.
“Bring a blanket!”
“Doctor! Go wake up the doctor!”
The people around me raised a fuss.
But the commotion was soon settled by the two men.
“Rise and scatter.”
Stopping the knight offering a blanket, Merem made the moisture on my body float into the air. I didn’t like the damp hair, but it soon became fluffy, which was fortunate.
Merem then wrapped a blanket around me.
“This seems to be the best I can do for you.”
Shailo clapped his hands afterward. A small flame was created and, as if it had a will, gently approached me.
“It’s an absolutely harmless flame magic. It will warm you up.”
“Thanks, Gong.”
“I was really surprised. If you had come out a little later, you could have dried up the sea.”
When Shailo says that, it doesn’t sound like a joke. In reality, there used to be magic in ancient times that could evaporate even a part of the sea.
“But where is the smell of cinnamon sugar coming from…?”
At that moment, Shailo twitched his nose.
Pretending not to notice, I put my arms around Merem’s neck, who embraced me in a flash.
“Everyone step aside. Her Majesty needs to rest.”
The flames certainly warmed my chilled hands. However, it was Merem’s body temperature that warmed me up.
With my reliance on Merem, I closed my eyes.
Fatigue rushed in like madness.
And someone was watching this scene from a distance.
In his eyes, there was a magically swirling vortex, and at the center of that magic, there was the Empress.
“…the smell of cinnamon sugar.”
Inyoung trembled as if shocked.
I wanted to believe otherwise, but this faint scent clung to his mind, and it was unmistakably the same smell that couldn’t be washed away—it was the scent of sin for him, the fragrance of guilt.
‘No, it can’t be. It can’t be.’
Inyoung, who was stepping backward, suddenly collapsed without moving.
It was an enlightenment that occurred in the darkness, something that no one would know.
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…?
