Jurgen brought Lowell to Martinek without adding a single word of explanation about her—why she had come here or what past she carried. All Jurgen did was introduce Lowell.

[This is Anette Martinek. She lacks much knowledge about the Martineks, so start teaching her anew from the beginning.]

To several servants of Duke Martinek, who knew nothing of the true circumstances, it was an artfully executed switch—so convincing that they truly believed she was the ‘Anette’ who had returned after long isolation.

But René naturally knew his newly acquired younger sister was a fake. He knew what the real ‘Anette’ looked like, and if the girl Jurgen had brought truly were the real ‘Anette,’ she wouldn’t have worn such a sorrowful expression.

Thus, he investigated his new sister thoroughly. Because the Hessen family fire had been so infamous, guessing her background wasn’t difficult at all. Even after learning the whole truth, René pretended to know nothing.

‘Thanks to that, Anette believes I truly know nothing.’

He knew everything—the reason Anette entered the imperial palace, her desire for revenge against the Emperor, and even the nature of the relationship between the Emperor and Anette. After all, information was the most powerful weapon in matters like these.

Sometimes, someone watching from just a step away knew far more than the people directly involved.

For instance, the fact that the real ‘Anette Martinek’s birthday was the same as Lowell Hessen’s.

‘I wonder what expression you’d make if you knew this.’

René never touched Anette’s birth records. Even for him, forging documents recorded during the Former Emperor’s reign was no easy task. Besides, there was no real need to alter the records—because, in the end, Anette hadn’t lied at all.

René pulled out a few sheets of paper from his drawer and stared blankly at the records written on them.

What was written there were the records of ‘Lowell Hessen.’

The records of a child who should have died at fifteen but had survived until now under another’s name.

Secrets known to no one else remained held tightly only in René’s hands.

I Became a Supporting Character in a Martial Arts Novel (Completed Main Story)

Chapter 165 Chapter 164

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.”
