In response to Askan’s answer, Bill smiled even more brightly.
“Thank you. From now on, I’ll address you as ‘Hyung.’ Thanks to you, I can escape from this place alive.”
Askan couldn’t believe it somehow. The day had come when he could leave the laboratory and start a new life.
While both of them gazed at the burning laboratory building, Bill, in a low voice, opened his mouth again.
“Will the 3rd prince keep his promise with us?”
“Well, it probably depends on our abilities.”
If Askan and the children were useful, there was no reason to discard them. On the other hand, if they were deemed useless, they could be discarded at any time.
Bill chuckled and said, “Well, it’s not much different from life in the lab.”
“Since we’ve chosen the best thing available now, we’ll have to watch the rest unfold slowly.”
Agreeing with Askan’s words, Bill nodded.
At that moment, a knight standing with Helcyon, seemingly having completed all preparations, shouted.
“We’re departing!”
As soon as those words were spoken, the carriage creaked and began moving towards an unknown destination.
It wasn’t just Askan and the children on the carriage. Dozens of knights on horses were quietly moving as well.
Askan surveyed the surroundings for a moment and then lay down on the floor.
As the destination was unknown, some of the children were tense, but since the dice had already been cast, it was a matter of waiting to see what results would unfold.
Without being told, Bill lay down next to Askan.
Looking at the star-studded night sky, Bill smiled brightly.
“Oh? Hyung, look at the stars. There are so many.”
The laboratory was a building with a ceiling. Askan, who had been confined there until now, couldn’t have had the chance to look up at the stars in the night sky.
Bill was deeply moved by the stars he hadn’t seen in a long time.
However…
“Hyung?”
Askan, lying on the adjacent seat, was shedding tears as he gazed at the stars in the night sky.
Witnessing Askan’s tears, Bill couldn’t help but be perplexed.
“Why are you crying? Does something hurt?”
“Oh.”
Askan, too, was surprised and wiped away the tears flowing down his eyes.
It felt as if his heart were being torn apart, and he couldn’t understand why it hurt.
Just by looking at the stars in the night sky, an overwhelming feeling of longing surged within him.
“I don’t know why I’m like this either.”
Although he couldn’t remember anything, the emotions remained. It was so painful that breathing became difficult.
Clutching his agonized chest, Askan wiped his eyes with his sleeves.
“…I miss someone.”
Suddenly, that thought crossed his mind. He didn’t know whom he missed, but the feeling of longing was still present, to the point that it choked him.
In the original work “Beloved Saint,” after undergoing human weapon experiments, Askan gained recognition for his abilities from the emperor and was appointed as the commander of the Kalua Empire’s knights.
However, once again, the original content has changed.
Even Tanashia, who read the original novel, couldn’t have expected Askan to follow Helcyon, the 3rd prince of the Kalua Empire.
The story began to move towards an unpredictable direction.
And so, ten years passed.
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.”
