“Is it… gone? Is it really gone? Doctor! Am I the only one who can’t see the burn scar that was just there? Yes? Is that so?”
My burn scar disappeared incredibly quickly.
Was it this simple? But all those long years I…
I choked up.
I continued to look in the mirror at my healed face, moved by the sight.
Then Wizard Vic spoke in a cold tone.
“You probably know, but this is only a temporary phenomenon.”
“I’ve heard.”
“According to the request of the person who commissioned this, a month’s worth is prepared. If you wait outside, my assistant will deliver it to you.”
Prince Tesler, this stingy bastard.
Just one month?
“One month? I’d like to purchase more.”
“That’s not something we can produce immediately, so it’s a problem. Even this order was really a rush job.”
“Then I’ll make a reservation for the amount to take next month!”
“Well… we’ll take the reservation for now. If you have nothing else to say, could you please wait outside?”
Wizard Vic scribbled something on a chart with a slightly displeased expression.
“By the way, do you produce a cure that can permanently remove this scar here, not just a potion that temporarily makes it disappear? I’ve heard there’s such a cure.”
“Well, that’s beyond my abilities.”
“I see… I understand.”
It seemed that the cure for the burn scar that Prince Tesler mentioned was not something I could commission from him.
With a disappointed heart, I left the consultation room and sat on the waiting room sofa.
Now, there’s something missing?
“Ah, I forgot.”
I put on the veiled hat I had taken off in the consultation room and had just held in my hand.
The burn scar had disappeared, but it was still not good to expose my face that would marry the emperor of this country.
Especially in a place like the ‘Proud Night’ clinic.
While waiting for the magic potion to take, I noticed a Rapion Empire newspaper on the table.
Out of boredom, I reached out, picked up the newspaper, and casually read it.
“All the women of the Empire are curious about the ideal type of the emperor, who is about to be married. What kind of woman is the emperor’s ideal type? Can the queen from the Kingdom of ChâteauNeuf, who will soon be married, match the emperor’s ideal type?”
How childish.
If I had a quill right now, I’d like to directly answer this article.
The chance that I, who will marry the emperor, am not his ideal type is 100%!
I kept reading the newspaper article.
“According to the emperor’s secretary, the emperor’s favorite female style is….”
Reading the frontpage article in the newspaper, I giggled and turned to the back page.
“What, why is there no next page. Oh, it’s torn?”
I casually threw the newspaper on the table.
“Gosh.”
It was a bit annoying that the flow of the article I was reading was interrupted. It wasn’t because I was curious about the emperor’s ideal type.
“What’s with the journalistic standards. Why are they curious about the emperor’s ideal type? There must have been a lot of such articles already. Why not write about the ideal type of the soontobe queen? That would be more fresh.”
“So, you seem to know the emperor’s ideal type well?”
A voice mixed with scoffing came from somewhere.
There was no one in front of me, where was this sound coming from?
“Wow, you surprised me!”
When I rolled my eyes to the right, I saw a black figure in the corner diagonally across.
Looking closely, it was the man in a black robe I saw when I first entered the clinic.
Are you still here?
Are you waiting for something to take, like me?
“Typical men’s ideals are obvious. Pretty, good body, kind. Do you think Emperor His Majesty would be different? But, why are you using informal language to a stranger?”
“Because you’re a stranger.”
“!”
How important a noble are you to use informal language right off the bat?
“Aren’t you too definitive about the emperor’s ideal type? The emperor isn’t a typical man.”
The man continued to babble in informal language with confidence.
“Do you also speak as if you know His Majesty the Emperor very well?”
“I’m pretty close with him. But… did you just use informal language with me?”
The man asked, looking around in disbelief.
“Could be? I also don’t know you. It seems to be the etiquette in the palace to use informal language with strangers, so I imitated it, why?”
“Ah, you’re not from here, are you? After all, this clinic is famous for its stamina medicine in other regions as well.”
“I’m not here to buy stamina medicine?”
“Then why are you here?”
“Why should I tell you that?”
I nervously parroted the man’s words.
You should raise your voice against rude people.
“Looking at you, you seem to be sitting crouched in the corner of the waiting room, like a criminal, unable to be confident at night, even wearing a hood. Is that so?”
“…ridiculous.”
“Hey, you look awkward like you came to buy stamina medicine, why?”
“…nonsense.”
The man retorted, repeatedly snorting.
“Is my word more like a word than lying that you’re close with His Majesty the Emperor?”
“…I am actually close.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
