Gulp.
At that moment, the hunger she momentarily forgot about surged back.
Moreover, thinking that she couldn’t buy anything made her thirst feel more intense.
Upon hearing the sound of rumbling from her stomach once again, she abruptly stood up.
Now she would not hesitate to join the guild. No, she had to beg to be admitted, even if she had to grab onto someone’s hem.
She gauged the distance between where she was now and the mansion on the map.
The commercial district itself was situated next to the royal palace and the noble residences surrounding the palace, so it was not too far. Upon closer inspection, there was even a ‘Information Board Found’ quest completion marker blinking nearby.
Even though money was useless, the experience point reward was quite satisfying, so it seemed like a good idea to stop by on the way.
Luella turned in the direction of the alley she had previously emerged from and reentered it.
The information board was located in the central square, further up from the bakery she had visited earlier.
As she set foot into the shopping district after passing through the dark alley, she noticed the bakery owner coming out. He quickly turned his head away as soon as their eyes met. At that moment, she thought he recognized her identity.
Luella hurried her steps toward the square, trying not to be alarmed. The owner clearly recognized her but pretended not to know her. Earlier, it seemed like the people were quite dissatisfied with those in higher positions, which might have been the reason.
Anyway, seeing the results of her random wandering made her even more fearful.
She thought of just abandoning the information board and everything else, but it seemed more dangerous to come back out again.
Following the arrow indicated on the screen, she saw people gathered in front of some bulletin board.
As she approached, a familiar notification sound accompanied the quest completion marker.
She was curious about what was on the information board, but she had to turn away at the sight of her own portrait visible even from a distance.
She checked the time on the screen.
2 p.m.
How long would it take to walk to the Feroz mansion? She wanted to take a carriage, but she had no money, and a kingdom citizen’s ID would likely be required.
Luella sighed and started walking in the direction the arrow was pointing. If she kept mulling over this and that, she might end up spending the night on the street.
It was lucky that she had arrived safely in the capital without any incidents. However, there was no guarantee that this luck would continue tonight, and she thought it was only a matter of time before people recognized her.
(This is a time separator.)
“Where are we going this time?”
Hajen tilted his head as if curious.
They who had been following Luella Rominin since Camun Village were hiding in the shadows of a building a little distance away, watching Luella Rominin.
“She’ll come to us.”
Kite responded, putting on the hat he was holding.
“How do you know?”
“She’s realized her situation, so there’s no reason to hesitate. She’s a smart woman.”
Hajen pouted at Kite’s response.
“How do you know she’s smart? You said something about testing it and took care of the dangers in advance, didn’t you?”
“It’s just because I wanted to get to the capital quickly. Just say it and you’ll know! Don’t throw up if I say so.”
“Yeah, yeah. I got it. So what now? Do we have to keep following her?”
Kite signaled to Joseph, the servant waiting nearby, as he answered.
“I’ll go ahead, so you follow Lady Rominin.”
“‘Follow’ not ‘with,’ right?”
Kite didn’t even pretend to hear his friend’s objection and lightly mounted the horse that Joseph had brought. Then he turned the horse’s head and instructed.
“Don’t let your guard down till the end and follow properly. Keep in mind that if something happens, you may not be safe either.”
Hajen watched Kite, who left without a second thought after his unilateral notice, and wore a mischievous smile.
“We’re almost home, and he wants me to follow. Tien, what do you think?”
“I think it’s a very good judgment. Shall I go buy something for a disguise?”
“Great. I’ll leave it to you to find something that doesn’t have even a speck of vigilance.”
“Just leave it to me.”
Tien confidently responded and ran off to the shopping district with his servant.
(This is a time separator.)
Exactly 30 minutes later, in front of the Peroz mansion.
“Thank you. I met kind people and came comfortably.”
Luella jumped off the carriage and expressed her gratitude.
The redhaired middleaged woman and the scruffy young man who appeared to be her son, who had given her a ride this far, nodded and waved their hands as if to say goodbye.
They had collided at the square where the information board was located and had offered Luella a ride in the carriage when they saw her in trouble, so she had reached her destination comfortably. They had even given her shoes when they saw her bare feet after she sat down.
Unfortunately, both the hat wearers seemed unable to speak.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
