This was the same even if they traded with any place other than Ighteon Top.
Orland and Barner thought that the creation of similar weapons was inevitable, and since Ighteon Top had already made its calculations, the contract was established.
Although it is true that they supported Tanashia with a large investment because they saw potential in her, she was still just a 15yearold girl.
They expected her to develop a peculiar weapon with an idea that others couldn’t think of, but they didn’t know that she would create such a groundbreaking magic stone.
It was really beyond expectation.
If they sold it, not only could they accumulate tremendous wealth, but the country that signed the contract could also gain immense national power.
But now, the condition proposed by Tanashia was holding them back.
[4. Do not use weapons that the developer does not want forever.]Originally, they thought that if Tanashia made a weapon with a brilliant idea, they could just replicate something similar.
But a new magic stone, this was an opportunity they could not miss.
There would have been no problem if they had developed a decent weapon, but the problem arose because Tanashia was too advanced than expected.
Decain’s red eyes darkened and flashed.
‘I can’t bury this new magic stone just for my ambition.’
It was a magic stone.
He had a soft spot for Tanashia who looked at him as he was, but that didn’t mean he could give up the ambition he had pursued his entire life.
He had to come up with a way to get the new magic stone without hurting Tanashia.
‘Could I figure out how it was made if I analyze this?’
Decain pondered while looking at the volcanic stone handed over from Tanashia.
A moment later, he briefly wrote down information about the new magic stone on a piece of paper. Then he tied the note to the leg of a pigeon prepared in the carriage and let it fly.
In this way, the news quickly reached Ighteon Top.
[This is the time separator]Leyana was in the middle of finding out about Askan using back alley information.
[15yearold boy, slave, ability to handle fire.]Usually, those with ability were nobles or of high status.
In the case of Leyana, she was born to a hostess mother, an illegitimate child, but she became a noble when she showed the ability to control wind.
The fact that Askan, who had the ability of fire, was a slave, was somewhat questionable. So she thought there would be someone who knew about him.
But she couldn’t hire a professional in fear of Tanashia finding out about her actions, so she was just trying to find out through the back alleys secretly.
If things had gone as they were, she wouldn’t have found out anything about the veiled Askan.
However, there were people who were digging into Askan’s tracks. They were the chasers dispatched from the Calua Empire.
Andro, who had been working as a mercenary for a long time and was proficient in tracking skills, was lurking in the tavern.
Just by picking up some simple information about Askan, he could tell that it was similar to No. 13 they were looking for.
“You heard it too, right?”
Andro finally grinned as if he had found a clue. Then, Tendai, who had a large scar on his face, nodded.
“Yes, it seems certain that he’s hiding in the Arwen Empire.”
“Now, all we have to do is find out which family he has slipped into as a slave.”
“The day to catch him isn’t too far off.”
Tendai clenched his fist habitually, thinking of the runaway Askan.
No matter how well he hid, he couldn’t shake off the chasers dispatched from the Calua Empire.
No matter where Askan was hiding, no matter how much time it would take, if he had become a corpse, he would have been caught, even if it meant digging up a grave.
Andrew was the first to rise from his seat.
“Let’s go, we need to find the source of the information.”
Tendai nodded slightly and stood up to follow him.
In an instant, the figures of the two men were nowhere to be seen in the tavern. They disappeared like ghosts, unnoticed by anyone.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
