Then he finally realized why he had been anxious since the child came.
It was because he was jealous of Nia.
Because the captain changed because of that child. The thought that she would abandon him spread jealousy and anxiety over him.
His whispered to Lucia.
“Captain, what will you do if I disappear?”
“Haha! You’re sulking because I scolded you, you’re sulking!”
Despite Gilriana’s ridicule of his question, he looked straight at Lucia.
“What will you do?”
“Do you have anywhere you want to go?”
“…….”
As His did not answer, Lucia said after a brief thought.
“Just tell me when you’re coming back.”
“……I’m disappearing.”
“I told you. I will use you for life.”
It was an annoying tone, but His remembered the words of the familiar 17yearold girl.
‘You want to use me too?’
‘Of course. The Knight Order will be created soon. I want to use you for life if possible.’
‘……Life? ……Magic, it doesn’t come out.’
‘Hmm, then I’ll have to make you clean.’
Of course, Lucia, who could read and control the rampant magic, could not be unaware of that obvious lie.
And His really hid his magic and only made trivial magical tools.
Even if he only made useless things, his ability could not be hidden, but Lucia never mentioned it even now, hiding behind her even in the midst of war without ever using magic.
To His, she was the only person who really expected nothing from him.
The boy realized that he had forgotten her like that.
“……Right. Sorry.”
Contrary to his apology, a faint smile hung at the corner of His’s mouth.
Gilriana felt the strange atmosphere between the two but finally handed a plate of desserts to His, who was sitting close to Lucia, and began to complain again.
“Ugh, it’s tiresome. Everyone in the family is struggling because of the sudden overlap of events and mass production of these? It’s lucky to get out of it using Ivanna’s excuse.”
The youngest daughter of the shop making these cute desserts being the knight of brute strength in the Black Knight Order.
Seeing Gilliana, who had a small, slender body without any excess fat, that nickname was one of the mysteries that could hardly be believed.
Vernon, who had just come out of the bathroom, roughly sat down on the remaining space on the sofa.
The graffiti on his face that had not been erased seemed to represent his feelings at the moment.
“……Sigh. I’m fed up too. Can you believe it? Why should I suffer over the matters of the Gilliana family?”
Normally, she wouldn’t have remained silent at his grumbling, but Vernon of today was a benefactor who could not be honored enough even if treated like a king.
Gilliana softly smiled for once, and quietly moved the desserts in front of him.
Then, she waited demurely for his evaluation.
“It’s sweet.”
“It’s your response.”
“……Yes.”
“……Is that all?”
As Gilliana demanded a more substantial reaction, they were like a group rewinding a tape one after the other.
“……Haha.”
She thought that it was a mistake to bring this dessert to these fools who knew nothing about taste, and suppressed her anger.
“Ah, right. Captain. But these are desserts to be supplied even to a kindergarten.”
“That’s right.”
“What? Captain? It’s not something to be so unconcerned about?”
At the unknown sarcasm, Lucia’s indifferent glance went towards her.
“My, it’s the time to recruit students. If you miss the opportunity, you’ll have to employ a nanny and a tutor, and when the leave is over, what are you going to do? Besides, this year is the year when new nobles are flocking in, so the acceptance rate has decreased.”
Gilliana actively informed her captain by making a money sign with her fingers that the salary of a Knight Commander was not enough to hire a tutor.
“…….”
Kindergarten? Education?
When the leave ends, the gemstone processing would be finished, and Lucia, a novice mother who was planning to raise the child with just a nanny, hadn’t thought of this at all.
First, Eldarion Academy, affiliated with the royal family, is a place where royal family members and nobles board their children until their debutantes.
A kindergarten attached to such a prestigious academy is, in fact, an unnecessary place for noble families where it’s normal to have nannies or tutors during early childhood.
But since it was a newly established empire, there were no connections for the newly appointed nobles, and the royal family, in an attempt to bridge this gap, created the affiliated kindergarten.
Its location was right next to the Knights’ grounds, so she knew of its existence, but she never dreamed that she would be connected to it.
However, Lucia had no intention of sending a special child to a place with many people.
She didn’t want to draw attention to the child.
……A home tutor, then? Should I coax the Emperor to get some advance payment?
The Emperor would give a contribution anyway, and since he had sensed the Grand Sword Master now, he was the Emperor who would give it even if he had to split the golden goose’s belly. Lucia thought of him as a human bank.
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.
