The Monster Knight Wants Maternity Leave (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 116
“Hmm, the temple and black magic—quite a serious matter indeed.”
Leaving behind an old man sipping lemonade in the distance, the Chancellor stroked his chin with a meaningful gaze.
Lucia told Chancellor Federin what she couldn’t discuss with the Emperor during the succession ceremony.
Count Tailen’s monsterization, the appearance of the rightful heir, and even the connection between the temple and black magic.
Throughout her entire account, he appeared astonished, yet occasionally seemed to find some answer hidden within her words.
“I’ll have someone I’ve placed within the temple investigate the black magic separately. But isn’t it true that everyone who makes that contract turns into a monster? Why bring such a child into the royal palace?”
His concern was that whichever priest arrived would surely seek an opportunity to enter the heart of Arkis.
“That’s fine. According to Heath’s investigation, the corruption stone in the child’s body is merely a curse mark.”
“I see. So you intend to receive healing without allowing priests into the country?”
“Yes. Since it’s their wish to keep the child here, they shouldn’t complain regardless of the location.”
“Haha. I see. His Majesty’s worries were indeed unfounded. You’re far more shrewd than I expected.”
“…No, not exactly.”
Lucia grew bitter at his praise.
In truth, she was merely following Ashford’s schedule as Barton had informed her; she had no immediate solution of her own.
Even if she, as head of Arkis, curbed the nobles’ exploitative profits, the common people struggling to feed themselves remained unchanged.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
