Mistakes may be free, but this is too much freedom. Isn’t it a bit excessive?
“It’s not like that. Just… That scene was sad.”
“I see. It must be embarrassing to admit. I understand now. I finally know why you are working so hard to break my curse. My question has been answered.”
What is he talking about? I’m trying to break the curse to save my life!
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you just because you like me.”
“No, it’s not that. I don’t like you!”
Sicar looked at me with eyes full of life, speaking ominously.
“I don’t like being lied to. You know that, don’t you?”
I was so terrified that I couldn’t deny it anymore. I felt as though if I denied it, he would threaten me with a knife again for lying to myself!
“See you tomorrow, then.”
Sicar looked down at me as though I was a loyal dog wagging its tail for him, then left the room.
‘Wait, do you still think that way after seeing my frustrated face? I’m helping you to save my life because you are trying to kill me!’
Ah. What do I do when a madman is deluded to his own liking?
I did cry. It was heartbreaking to see a man who hadn’t smiled for a long time die without a single laugh.
Because I saw my lonely life in his lonely life.
Sicar could only hear my voice and see my memories, but he couldn’t feel my emotions at the time. So it seemed like he was completely mistaken just by seeing the tears I shed.
Since he relied on someone else’s memory, he could ignore my bewildered expression.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]The next day, Sicar and I quickly finished preparing to adopt Kian. The process was very simple since all we had to do was sign the documents that Sicar had brought. There was no need to meet the king personally.
Even though the procedure was simple, I wondered why both parents had to be present, but Sicar insisted it was a national law that had to be obeyed no matter how simple it was.
Anyway, according to the national law of Recardor Kingdom, I legally became Sicar’s perfect wife. So I became Yura Blake, following Sicar’s surname.
While we were finishing all the preparations, Kian still didn’t wake up.
It wasn’t that the Duke of Radix made a mistake by feeding him the wrong herbs, but Kian slept for quite a long time.
Perhaps he slept for a long time because he hadn’t slept well and had been starving for a long time.
Sicar worried about Kian in his own way. Of course, he was worried about himself, who was cursed, but still, Sicar suggested that we go to Kian’s room first.
He looked at Kian for a long time, then suddenly lifted the child by the nape of his neck. Startled, I ran to Sicar.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m just checking if he’s breathing.”
“Then you should just lean in. Kian is not a lion cub!”
“Bend down? Me?”
“…He’s going to be your child now. Children are weaker than adults, so they need to be treated delicately.”
“The protagonist is completely weak. The weak die quickly. It seems that he was lucky to be born as the main character and survive.”
“That’s because you’re a Sitar.”
The Sitar were a kind of human, but they were strong, quick, and like elves, they had excellent appearances.
Above all, their superiority was their ability to control the spirit of spirits. They couldn’t call spirits themselves, but they could control spirits that spiritists had summoned or that were roaming around.
Of course, not all Sitar were talented. Only Sicar was particularly talented. For instance, just because humans are intelligent animals doesn’t mean they all have high intelligence. Sicar was especially outstanding.
“We should stay here until Kian wakes up. That will reassure the child.”
Even though Sicar looked tired, he didn’t refuse. He seemed to have a rough idea of the child’s psychology since he had seen my memory.
“How about making a dreamcatcher when Kian wakes up?”
“Dreamcatcher?”
“It’s a charm that filters out nightmares and allows you to only dream good dreams.”
“Since Kian often suffers from nightmares in the original story, it would be good to make such a thing. Start making it right away.”
“No, not me. You have to make it.”
“Me?”
“What Kian needs is not me, but you. If you want to get closer to Kian, wouldn’t it be better if you made it yourself?”
Sicar looked at me with an unwilling face, then abruptly grabbed my hand.
“He grabs it again. Again.”
“You, you! From now on, ask for my permission before grabbing my hand!”
“Don’t be shy.”
“That’s not the point.”
Ignoring my words, Sicar focused on reading my memories, not responding. Then, tilting his head, he took my hand and sat me down in front of a table.
Then, after bringing a notebook and pen, he began to draw a dreamcatcher while holding my hand.
“It’s a strangely shaped object. Then again, everything in your memories is like that.”
While Sicar was drawing, I was held motionless in his grip.
I felt like I had become a USB stick. I felt plugged into a computer port, waiting for all the files to be transferred.
Doing nothing but being held by Sicar, sleepiness came upon me.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
