Whether it took a day or two to defeat Maria Kuran, whenever it seemed dangerous, they could return without hesitation.
Above all, the fact that the Agit defense system had reached level 3 meant they didn’t have to worry about external attacks.
After setting the teleport location and turning her head, she coincidentally met eyes with Kite.
Seeing the composed expression on Ruela’s face, he smiled.
Having confirmed that she was in good condition, Kite, attacking the lesser demons, started moving at a rapid pace.
“It seems Maria Kuran is probably inside the mansion. Let’s move at full speed without losing our energy from here.”
As Kite’s command was issued, everyone ignored the lesser demons rushing towards them and ran towards the mansion.
Arriving at the entrance, Kite, without a hint of hesitation, kicked the door open just like before.
“Rude guests.”
As they entered, Maria Kuran stood tall in the middle of the spacious hall, seemingly waiting.
Ruela silently stared at her, whom she met after a long time. The noisy sounds of demons quieted down as soon as the entrance door closed, almost like a lie. It seemed that lesser demons couldn’t enter this place.
“I don’t feel like being courteous.”
When Hazen responded defiantly, Maria, who had been glaring at him for a moment, shifted her gaze to Ruela standing behind.
“You’re still causing trouble wherever you go. Your conduct isn’t good. After declaring hostility to the Balder Guild, now you’re associating with strange groups and even aiming a sword at me, who is your brother’s wife?”
With a tone that seemed quite reproachful, Maria smiled, her large black eyes turning red as if there were no whites.
“If that’s what you say, I guess I don’t need to show sympathy either, right?”
“I’m naturally inclined to repay what I received. Whether you’re my brother’s wife or not, since you tried to kill me, I can’t just stand still, can I?”
Maria smiled, her eyes, as if having no whites, turned red in a way that seemed to be ridiculing Ruela’s loud snort.
“If you say so, then I don’t need to expect sympathy. Right?”
“I’m not expecting such things. Don’t worry.”
While Maria and Ruela were in a standoff, Hazen muttered in a low voice.
“Isn’t it certain that she’s a demon? Why does she look so fine?”
“Didn’t Balder look fine? In my opinion, the higher they go, the less difference there is between humans and demons.”
Hazen clicked his tongue at Rafael’s response.
“Did you forget what the king looked like in the meantime? In my eyes, he seemed crazier than Vincenti, didn’t he?”
While the two were squabbling, Maria, raising the corners of her mouth, spoke.
“Isn’t it unfair for six people to face me alone?”
“We don’t care about that. Why bother with manners for demons?”
In response to Ruela’s answer, Maria pouted.
“Fine. If you don’t care about such things, I guess I have nothing to refuse. Theodore, come here.”
Suddenly, Maria called out to someone else.
Despite it being dawn, the indoors were dark as no lights were on.
From the dark back, Ruela saw someone she had seen before appearing.
Until she saw that figure, Ruela had no idea who Theodore was.
Because she had never heard the name of Kaimun Jajak. No, even if she had heard it, she would have forgotten.
She was taken aback by the appearance of Kaimun Jajak, whom she had not expected.
Seeing him there within the mansion, she had been relieved, thinking that Maria was alone.
“So, Kaimun Jajak’s name was Theodore.”
Listening to Hazen’s muttering, Ruela looked at the staggering man.
He looked as much of a mess as when he was brought by Count Galt before.
Seeing that, unlike before, anger welled up within her.
After all, even though Galt was an outsider, the two were supposed to be a married couple. Moreover, claiming to love each other, how could he turn out like this?
“Acting like it was an irreplaceable love, and this is all there is? Turning a dead person into a demon to use as a shield for self-protection?”
“Love? Who said that? I said I love Kaimun Jajak.”
“What?”
As Ruela blinked with a puzzled expression, Maria Kuran burst into laughter.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
