“I don’t know. It’s probably the first time for two people to have such a case. But their sensations are completely identical.”
I grinned.
“Maybe it feels the same because we have the same attribute?”
“That’s highly unlikely. As you know, hearts as mana-generating organs have unique characteristics. Although mana attributes are divided for convenience, in reality, each feeling is different.”
‘That’s true.’
As Evelyn said, not all flames are the same. Just as blue flames and red flames have different firepower, even if they seem to have the same attribute, the mana they emit is slightly different.
‘But Hadel and I feel the same.’
What does this situation really mean?
No matter how much I pondered, I couldn’t find an answer. Seeing me with a slightly troubled expression, Evelyn, removing her hands, spoke cheerfully.
“There’s nothing wrong with your health. The issue is absorbing the mana of others rather than the situation of transforming into a human, but it doesn’t seem to be a problem for now.”
“Um.”
For some reason, I felt that now was the opportunity. I asked the question that I had been curious about for a long time.
“Can I have a child?”
“Marian?”
Hadel made a subtle expression at my question. But I didn’t care about Hadel. It was a very important issue for me.
“I have to start by saying that I can only speak theoretically.”
Fortunately, Evelyn knew the answer.
“If you have a child, wouldn’t it help stabilize your human condition? Since your children would undoubtedly have the fire attribute.”
It sounded possible.
When Hadel returned to the room, he sighed, sweeping his hair back. Then, with a deeply sunken face, he faced me.
“Marian, you really surprised me earlier.”
“Because of my question?”
I thought Hadel would be curious too, right?
I thought Hadel would be pleased with the news that we could have a child. Because Hadel was a Grand Duke and, naturally, would need an heir to inherit the territory.
‘One of the reasons I didn’t readily nod when Hadel confessed was because of the succession issue.’
However, when I actually talked about it, Hadel was completely different from what I expected.
“I don’t need a child.”
Hadel added with a serious face.
“No, I’d rather not have been born with the same fire attribute as me and suffered.”
“Hadel.”
He sometimes revealed unimaginable past pains while talking to me, and now was one of those times.
He was now showing deep wounds, revealing what discrimination and suffering he had endured. I consoled him.
“Being of the fire attribute isn’t your fault. It’s strange to say that suffering because of it is strange.”
Normally, Hadel, who would quietly nod at such words, drew a clear line today.
“Receiving comfort from your words is true. But passing on the same suffering to someone else is a different matter. Poverty is not a sin, but can you say that passing on poverty to your children is not a sin?”
“Hadel.”
Speaking so passionately. It was time for me to step back. I smiled as a sign of reassurance.
“I didn’t ask about having a child right away because I wanted one. I just asked because I don’t know what will happen in the future. I’m sorry for surprising you.”
“Uh…”
Only then did Hadel lean his forehead heavily on my shoulder as if to express relief. Hadel, who had been quietly receiving my comfort, spoke in a low voice.
“I was too sensitive.”
“No. It’s possible to be sensitive. It is an important issue, after all.”
Even after that, Hadel’s tension didn’t ease for quite a while, so I had to reassure him for a long time.
Meanwhile, the sun set, and it was time to go to bed. I lay him down on the bed.
“Rest deeply today without any thoughts.”
“What about you?”
When I turned around, thinking he would naturally lie down with me, Hadel grabbed my wrist. I smiled gently.
“I’ll take a short walk and be back.”
Although I tried to comfort him, my mind was still complicated.
‘Hadel’s wounds are deeper than I thought.’
As I stepped outside, the air had certainly become cooler than before. I took a deep breath and exhaled.
‘Well, if he has been ignored because of the fire attribute since birth, he might react like that.’
More than anything, the fact that I caused pain to Hadel weighed heavily on my heart.
‘I guess I was too rash.’
After the gloom, feelings of embarrassment and injustice about the days I had been contemplating followed. I punched the air.
‘Argh! I should have just asked Hadel what he wanted to do with the child! I thought too much on my own.’
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
