In the royal palace of the Northern Kingdom, the crown prince and Greta were facing each other.
“It will be okay now if you listen to what I say.”
Greta gently stroked the crown prince’s head with a gentle smile.
“Yes.”
The Crown Prince obediently answered, rubbing his face against her hem like a child, and Greta gently stroked his head.
“Your father treated you harshly, but I won’t do that. There’s no need.”
“Gre… Greta is bet… better.”
“Yes. Because I handle everything better than my father.”
It was everything, literally.
Whether it was people, magic, or contracts.
“It will all end soon.”
“End?”
“Yes. You can go to the bosom of God. Along with everyone else.”
“Gre…Greta too go together?”
“No. I can’t go together.”
Greta put down the hand that was stroking the crown prince’s head and covered his eyes.
The pressure on his eyeballs was so strong that his eyes seemed to burst, but the crown prince did not resist.
Greta spoke as if she was singing with a still gentle smile.
“Because only I and my beloved Cryer will remain in the purified world, just the two of us.”
[This is the time separator]When Greta’s eyes were groping for Cryer who was still in the empire,
Olivia and Cryer were moving their location from the gallery to a secluded outside.
“No one will come here.”
At Olivia’s confident words, Cryer looked around.
“How on earth did you find a place like this?”
“Just found it while living. There’s no place in the palace where I haven’t been running around.”
“There should be secret rooms or passages for the royal family.”
“There are. But when you swung your sword and it easily crumbled, my trust in them fell to near zero.”
Olivia sighed after awkwardly swinging her arm and flipping her palm to the back of her hand.
“Looking back, I died in many ways.”
“Why are you subtly distancing yourself?”
“No, I just remembered how many times you killed me.”
“You seem to have become incredibly cheeky compared to the beginning… No, you were cheeky from the start.”
“You will also realize that it’s better to say everything you want to say once you die and come back to life.”
“Come back to life after dying….”
“I told you, I die and come back to the past to you.”
Olivia, who was counting how many times she had come back, shook her shoulders and shook her hands off.
Reviewing death was a stupid thing to do, especially in front of the one who killed her….
“Huh, huh!”
Olivia breathed in and out deeply, puffing out her chest and thumping it.
“Okay. Then let’s hear it. The command that made you cause that crazy… no, the bloodshed… no, the continental war, the contract.”
She kept slipping on her words, but she managed to convey the main point.
Cryer leaned his back against the mossy wall with his arms crossed.
Although the cold chill flowing down the stone wall permeated him, it was a million times better than lukewarm warmth.
The silence fell, but it was like the calm before a fierce storm.
The fresh wind that had been tickling her cheeks occasionally became more and more chaotic, and Olivia’s lips turned blue in an inexplicable cold.
At the moment when a white breath, which couldn’t be possible, flowed out from between her slightly opened lips,
“That contract is…”
As Cryer’s Adam’s apple vibrated, Olivia unconsciously swallowed her saliva.
Finally, the most important clue for her to survive is!
“Uh, uh, uh?”
Olivia felt dizzy with her suddenly darkened vision and her head pushed back against her will, she fumbled around the big hand that had covered her eyes.
Smooth fingertips traced the rough and thick joints for a while.
“What’s this, why are you doing this?”
Cryer, who had covered her eyes with one hand and pushed her back, opened his mouth.
“It’s just a story that isn’t that grand even if you look at it with those sparkling eyes.”
“What?”
Cryer soon withdrew his hand from her eyes and continued his words.
“It’s a simple story. A deranged wizard resurrected a dead man for a contract with an ancient god, and the resurrected man was forced to become a slave of the ancient god.”
His voice, as deep as his heavily sunken eyes, was terribly dry.
“That slave would drown the world in blood and ‘purify’ it as his master wished. In other words, it is the end of the world.”
Olivia’s eyelashes trembled like dandelion seeds swaying in the gentle breeze. The corner of Cryer’s mouth twisted.
“How is it? Sounds like a story you’ve heard a lot, right? A crazy wizard, the demon king, the end of the world. All things that could appear in any fairy tale or novel.”
“That… yes… but…”
Olivia swallowed her dry saliva and momentarily unsealed her parched lips.
“That means there must be a hero…”
“Right. Because those are made up stories. This is reality, so there is no hero. As you saw before your regression, there’s not even a demon king. Just a mere slave raising his bloody hand and roaring.”
Cryer sneered. Could it be called a roar?
Or perhaps a wail.
Or a cry of agony.
He tightly grabbed the collarbone marked with the seal of the slave.
A mark that doesn’t disappear even if you tear off the flesh and scrape off the bone.
He wanted to escape.
He wanted to get out of these slave shackles.
However, a reality where no light could be seen became a wall of lamentation blocking his way, and he couldn’t overcome that wall, couldn’t bring it down, nor could he pierce through it.
When did he begin to long for an end, not freedom?
Even that was like crawling in a hole with no end in sight, with limbs cut off.
A pitchblack silence fell again between Cryer and Olivia.
The next moment.
“What… are you doing.”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
