Luella pulled out a portrait that she had picked up earlier from the pocket of the cloak she had taken off.
“Here, what do you think? Can you recognize me, even to your eyes, Guild Master?”
“It looks very similar.”
“Then I can’t go out anyway. Balder, the Guild Master, has been going around spreading that portrait himself. If I walk around outside, he’ll know where I am in no time.”
Frowning her mouth, Luella crumpled up the portrait without mercy, as if to show her anger toward Balder. Kite responded with a smile, holding back his laughter.
“I know, I saw it earlier. But you can’t stay inside the house all the time.”
“Is it because you need my ability? But I’m still preAwakening. I’m useless, so it seems like it doesn’t matter if I just stay at home, right?”
“As a guild member, everyone must participate in external activities regardless of Awakening status. And the fact that you are hiding here means that Balder will know about it soon, even if you don’t go out. He’ll probably break in and try to drag you to trial right away. At that time, we must have your name on the guild member list to help you.”
Luella sighed and spoke with a troubled look.
“Wouldn’t it be better to just be judged? Liking someone else while having a lover is not such a great crime, right?”
Kite shook his head firmly, as if it was unthinkable.
“It’s not the weight of the crime that’s important here. It’s important that the other party is Balder. Even if it’s really nothing, if you hurt Balder’s feelings, that’s a big crime. And the trial isn’t a normal trial that you imagine.”
“What then?”
“Think about it. Luella Rominin was famous for being haughty, arrogant, and malicious. It’s also famous that she never held hands with her lover, Balder. And then, there were rumors of adultery with another man? How do you think Balder felt?”
Luella dropped her shoulders, responding with a lifeless expression.
“He must have been really angry.”
“His pride must have been hurt too.”
“So, I won’t be safe if I’m taken away.”
“Probably.”
Kite’s eyes were filled with a worried look as he responded in a heavy voice.
“What about the person I cheated with? Is he safe?”
“The person is Balder’s cousin. He didn’t die because of that. Besides, that cousin insisted that he had nothing to do with Luella Rominin, that he was used like Balder, so he was eventually forgiven.”
“Is the guild led by that cousin big? Why was Luella greedy?”
“It was just one of the ordinary noble guilds. It wasn’t like Balder, the head of the Allied Guild. I still have doubts about that point.”
Luella asked with a face that didn’t understand at all.
“It was just an ordinary guild?”
“Yes.”
“Being Balder’s lover would have been more advantageous, so why did she covet that guild? Something’s strange.”
There must have been some reason.
But now that wasn’t important. She had a rough idea of what was going on, and now she had to solve what was immediately important to her.
“When will the food come in?”
In the middle of an important conversation, suddenly looking for food, Kite shook his head. Even though she was different from the Luella he had heard rumors about, she was still very different.
“Just wait a little longer. Anyway, Balder will doubt your changed appearance overnight and try to find out why. You can’t hide it forever, but I want you to be as careful as possible.”
“You’re saying that I don’t look like a noble lady right now, right? I got it. I’ll try not to get caught as not being Luella Rominin. But going in front of people, is that included in the external activities of the guild?”
“You have to go to the king and formally greet him and make an oath when you establish a guild.”
“An oath?”
“It’s ceremonial. I will follow the laws of Curan, I will not harm public morals, things like that.”
“You’re saying that you must bow your head to the king to be recognized as an official guild? That will reveal that I am in this guild, right?”
“You don’t have to bow your head, but you will make a vow to follow.”
Luella’s expression furrowed. She asked with a worried expression.
“Can you do such a thing? He’s an enemy, after all.”
“What can’t be done to eliminate that enemy?”
“That’s true. Then what do you plan to do after being officially recognized as a guild?”
“I mentioned earlier that the demons suddenly appearing at the border of Kuran was suspicious. We think that some kind of force is at work there. We need to continue to meet and visit people to find out what it is.”
“Wouldn’t it be a hindrance to information gathering if you take me with you? People are hostile towards me.”
“It could be the opposite. Many people despise the Kingdom of Kuran and want to return to the days when it was Hellane’s territory.”
“Ah, by openly displaying my opposition to Balder, I might be able to attract those who are against it.”
Kite’s eyes traced a line.
“Right, that will be the first thing you do in our guild, Luella Rominin.”
It was then that the conversation had come to that point.
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.
