[Full] The Villain Found Out This is a Novel (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 49
Hearing rumors about me wasn’t particularly difficult.
After all, I’d just stepped away to wash my hands to briefly escape the Queen Consort and Hersia’s excessive attention, and on my way back, I overheard the noble ladies chatting among themselves.
“Did you see Duke Blake just now? When Marquis Yucanadar handed a glass of water to the Duchess, he poured it straight into a potted plant!”
“Oh my, really? I’d heard Duke Blake was unusually affectionate toward the Duchess, so I suppose that’s true after all.”
That wasn’t affection—it was more like saying, “Don’t feed my puppy without permission.”
I had no idea which families those talking ladies belonged to or who exactly they were, but they seemed mostly young wives. Still, I was curious how my reputation stood in society, so I kept secretly listening.
“They say Duke Blake cared so deeply for the Duchess that he even held their wedding in secret.”
“Wait, is this really about *that* Duke Blake? The very one who executed the deposed king?”
“Of course it’s him—there’s only one Blake!”
“Good heavens! That Duke Blake—the one who always carries a longsword at his waist and draws it at the slightest provocation to shout, ‘Do you wish to die?’—has such a romantic side?”
One of the ladies, who’d been chatting animatedly just moments before, suddenly sighed deeply and slumped her shoulders as if deflated.
“I suppose one can never truly know another person. My count is kind to everyone else but so cold to me.”
“Exactly! Everyone was always afraid of Duke Blake because he’s constantly wearing that sword. Who would’ve guessed he’d be so romantic?”
Yes. He even wears that sword at home.
“I also heard he personally rescued children from the orphanage himself. Isn’t it astonishing that such a busy duke got involved in something like that?”

The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.

- Artemtisforaday Chapter 59 — Paragraph 51
'This guy. If you like me so much, just come out and say it plainly already.'
Now Yura is just as delusional as Sikar! Believing every little word/action means liking. Lol.
- Artemtisforaday Chapter 63 — Paragraph 48
“Good. I want you to say ‘I love you.’”
I wonder what his aversion to saying I love you is? Maybe the last words he said to his parents before they died was I love you? So it’s kind of a trauma for him? Like if he says it to Yura, she’ll die?
- Artemtisforaday Chapter 64 — Paragraph 28
“I am rather curious whether I can sew well or not.”
Yura is learning how to get him to do what she wants. 😂🤣

Ooooo. Sikar is teasing and flirting so openly right now! This is great!
Yura teasing Sikar the same way he’s been teasing her is fantastic. I can’t wait to read even more fluff between these two!
Let’s see how well she “tames” Sikar. Though I feel it’ll backfire on her. 😂🤣
