Eldarion Preschool’s principal’s office.
Norzia, seated by the sunlit window, relished the sound of children playing outside like music as she held her teacup.
During that leisurely time, she focused on a particular child outside the window.
The child standing next to the princess was a precious child from the Kingdom of Kilgis.
A 5yearold who naturally blended thoughtful and gracious movements, that could otherwise have been awkward.
As she watched the child, thoughts of the first meeting and discussion with the Duke’s representative circled in her mind.
.
.
.
“Please give me the role of class representative.”
A neat updo, a modest face, and glasses perfectly placed on it.
Rare was the person who showed such strong will in a meeting.
Parents occasionally appeared, anxious about their first child’s social life, but such an imposing tone was a first.
However, Principal Norzia didn’t show a flustered expression.
“Ho ho, that position is already determined; it’s not so easy to change.”
The principal’s words met a somewhat disappointed face.
Still, she did not back down.
“Is there anything I can do for you?”
“No, I believe you applied because you thought the environment was already satisfactory.”
Principal Norzia was not one to be trifled with.
After the incident involving the Gederrin family, she had even abolished all tuition inflow routes.
That made her even more resolute.
Faced with her stance, the Duke’s representative switched gears.
Seemingly at a loss, she tenderly touched her chin with her neatly gloved hand.
“Well, His Highness will lose face if it goes like this. In fact, His Highness highly evaluates this preschool so much that he sent his only grandson, even against the laws…”
Her words felt like the preamble to something longer.
So, Norzia had to make her refusal more pointed.
“I know. That’s why we accepted.”
But,
“Yes, did you also know this? As soon as he’s enrolled, the tariff on all products from our kingdom will significantly decrease for the capital’s residents.”
“……Ah.”
The issue had become significantly more complicated.
Though irrelevant to her role as a preschool principal, she couldn’t be unaware of this fact given that her husband was a minister of the empire.
No one questioned the cost of any imports from their stilluntarnished lands.
Therefore, if the tariff reduced, even the poor who hadn’t had a chance to see these products would surely find some relief.
An issue that went beyond what she could decide.
The only thing she could do was buy time.
“…Given what you’ve said, I’ll have to discuss it with the current representative first.”
.
.
.
‘I thought her aim to join Sparrow class was to get close to the princess, but why insist on the representative role…’
[Dash] Knock, knock.Just as another question was forming, she heard someone knock on the door.
She then glanced at the clock.
It was still quite early for Lucia, the appointed Sparrow class representative, to arrive.
Nonetheless, she gladly stood up to personally greet the early guest.
Though today’s discussion wasn’t to be a pleasant one, the idea of meeting Lucia again after a long time delighted her.
“Please come in, Luci…”
“It’s been a long time! Lady Ruwins!”
Principal Norzia scrutinized the face of the unfamiliar woman who suddenly grabbed her hand.
Verdant green hair and warm brown eyes resembling a clear forest.
The young child from her memories had grown into a beautiful woman and stood before her.
“……Princess Lillif?”
[Star icon]“Why are you like that?”
“I wonder? Do you have some good news?”
The administration office of the White Mage Division.
There, Lion had taken out a small box as he entered and placed it in the first drawer of his desk with a key.
Then he opened it, closed it, opened it, closed it.
After repeating it several times, he suddenly shook his head and sighed as he looked at the clock.
However, even that sigh was accompanied by a smile, making it clear something good had happened to him.
Administrative officers Marien and Robina were closely observing such a Leon.
Soon their murmuring faces brightened up.
“What’s going on with you and Lady Lucia?”
“Exactly. Tell us now!”
At their eagerness, Leon shook his head as if nothing had happened.
Contrary to his previous demeanor, he appeared rather resolute.
Then the girls felt a deep sense of betrayal.
“Why? Why aren’t you telling us? That’s so unfair.”
“How can you be so happy without us!?”
“…Happy?”
Leon was puzzled by their unexpected remark.
However, seeing their serious expressions, he didn’t feel like lying either.
“…Do I look happy to you?”
Upon his question, the girls rushed toward him ecstatically.
“Yes! Even more than when a handsome young man courts a woman who just had a baby!”
“Yes! More than when a friend finds out the large gemstone her husband gave her is fake!”
Leon, who was until then showing a fluffy expression, now looked somewhat pitiful.
“…Is that what happiness is for you two.”
“…”
“…”
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.
