The Monster Knight Wants Maternity Leave (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 37
“More than that, it takes real courage to endure.”
“……Yes?”
Now that he looked closely, the girl’s tone was as blunt as that of a middle-aged knight, and her speech carried an inflection rarely heard from someone her age.
But more than that, it was the careless words she’d just tossed out that made his heart sink.
‘……Could she possibly know about that day’s incident?’
Leon trembled with overwhelming fear.
Not a single person in his household had spoken a word about that forgotten day—for six long years.
Neither his servants, nor his tutors, nor even his father. That was precisely why young Leon’s fear had only grown deeper.
He’d tried every day without fail to recall it, yet he simply couldn’t remember what terrifying event had caused his ever-loving, ever-caring mother to change so suddenly.
Just how furious and disappointed must she have been?

Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!

The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.

Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
