“Tsk.”
Nerys clicked her tongue. She was amazed and confused.
She wasn’t entirely unfamiliar with treating wounds. However, the injuries she had to treat herself were mostly the result of harassment, not the kind of injury that would cause the smell of blood to permeate the air.
Cledwin’s eyes, as if he had exerted all his energy while glaring at her just now, seemed to cloud over. Nerys made an effort to make a calm judgment.
Hiding the unidentified injured person from the boys was because Neluccion and Abelus didn’t want anything good to happen. Even if they didn’t know what it was, if the person sent by their close servant was looking for them, they had to eliminate the threat.
There was no reason for her to rescue that injured person even if he was dead. In fact, if the person in the bushes had been a corpse, she would have just left it there.
But he was alive. Moreover, Cledwin Maindland. Except for Diane, the only person in this school who could be of help to Nerys in the future, perhaps even to protect her mother.
It didn’t take long to make a decision.
Rustle. Nerys cautiously crawled out of the bushes. It was only after confirming that there was no one around.
Then, relying on the moonlight, she plucked a few leaves from the nearby bushes and returned to where Cledwin was.
“Try chewing this. Can you chew it? If not, I can’t help it either, so I’ll leave you.”
Regaining her composure, Nerys observed carefully. The ground around Cledwin was damp. It seemed like he had shed a lot of blood.
Cledwin looked down at the grass she put in her mouth. His eyes alternated between the leaves and Nerys several times.
Nerys thought it couldn’t be helped if he didn’t trust the herbs due to suspicion. Anyway, there was no trust between them.
However, Cledwin soon looked straight into Nerys’s eyes and opened his mouth. Nerys pushed the herbs into his mouth with her fingertips.
Although it was not intentional, she felt through her fingertips that his mouth was dry and hot.
Even as he chewed the herbs with difficulty, Cledwin’s eyes didn’t leave Nerys’s face.
Nerys felt her heart pounding. It was good that he still had the strength to glare at someone. But would that be the end of it? Even if the effect of the herbs worked…
“Don’t swallow it.”
A look of doubt crossed Cledwin’s eyes as if wondering what that meant. It was impressive that he could express such abstract emotions with just his eyes. Nerys said calmly.
“It’s not harmful, just tasteless.”
A brief smile flickered in his eyes and disappeared. And how much time had passed?
Cledwin Maindland made a movement, as if trying to get up, and his shoulders twitched. Relieved, Nerys supported his body with her shoulders and struggled to lift him up, muttering.
“That’s just an awakening effect; it’s not a cure-all. Let’s bandage the wounds first and then move.”

Mega wasn’t feeling well.
Today was the day of the rehearsal for the social test, and Mega had planned to take full advantage of this opportunity to give a light punishment to the unlucky Trude, who had a rehearsal scheduled for today—there shouldn’t be anyone who suspected the first-year, especially since a slightly ‘accident’ might happen in a different classroom than usual.
If everyone saw her clothes in a mess, even if she were an excellent student, she would be embarrassed in front of everyone.
But the problem was that Trude didn’t show up.
The blade wedged under the table, and the ink bottle prepared to tip over for a sneak attack became useless. Of course, Mega herself didn’t directly touch such trivial and childish things.
Those who knew about the plan for today’s rehearsal kept glancing at the classroom entrance throughout the rehearsal. Diane MacKinnon became more and more enthusiastic as she realized it.
She nearly threw away the elegant mask that Mega wore to avoid looking at them and frowned.
Sheridan Kyng’s exam rehearsal ended for everyone with a rather dull feeling. Without Nerys, who always received praise for her perfection, monopolizing the praise for this class, it didn’t bring Mega joy either.
She wanted a more definite, more explicit superiority. The attention naturally poured on her was rather an insult because the daughter of a humble knight wasn’t present.
On the way back, Mega was quiet. Adalia didn’t know what to say next to her. They walked together with other students, each immersed in their own thoughts about their beliefs.
When they passed a library where seniors often gathered to study, someone approached Mega in a friendly manner.
“Meg! Are you going to study?”
Mega turned her head without expression to see who was talking to her.
Mahradi End was standing there, looking slightly nervous but excited. Seeing him carrying books, it seemed that he, too, was on his way back after studying for the exam.
Mega hadn’t forgotten the humiliation of the previous Vereleno3 class. She didn’t like his attitude of teaching the wrong translation on the topic he taught with confidence, claiming to be a senior.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
