I have obtained everything I desired.
“You have been very kind all this time.”
“Thank you, Lady Renisha.”
Renisha handed a pouch containing jewels to the steward.
With a pale face, the steward received it.
Without this, there was no reason for Renisha to endure fear and humiliation simultaneously by the Emperor’s side.
With a delighted expression, the steward carefully placed it in his pocket.
“This way.”
A nauseating smell filled the air as Renisha’s nose was pricked in the dim corridor.
Here, unfairly deceased souls rested.
Renisha smiled slyly.
She already had a suspicion that Lexus would give her everything she desired.
Lexus was currently obsessed with Renisha.
Although she didn’t want to know the underlying emotions, Renisha could use it to her advantage.
Before she knew it, they were in front of an old wooden door.
Renisha stared at the door with caution.
“Well…”
Undoubtedly, Lexus’s death would not be beautiful.
Lexus does not mourn or respect the deaths caused by him.
It wasn’t just the Rotheira Duke and his wife; many others who would meet now, Viscount Calliot, and countless others lost their lives due to Lexus, but he showed no respect for their deaths.
Left and abandoned.
Finally…
A coffin was visible where the dust swirled.
Renisha embraced it.
It bothered her that Viscount Calliot couldn’t hold this.
The deaths of his children must have become a thorn in Viscount Calliot’s chest.
Similar to the deaths of the Rotheira Duke and his wife imposed on Renisha.
Her chest ached.
The coffin felt colder than anything in the world.
If Renisha felt this way, how did Viscount Calliot feel?
He had to leave unfairly without even holding his son once.
The anger toward Gale surged.
Her heart pounded.
She exerted force on the fingers holding the coffin.
A crisp sound echoed, and her nails scratched.
“Lady Renisha…”
The steward admired Renisha’s malice.
“…It’s time for the Emperor to look for you. I’ll leave now.”
Renisha issued a farewell command.
Coldly passing by the steward, Renisha walked slowly.
Viscount Calliot, who would welcome her, was no longer there.
No one was left.
Just like Rotheira Duke who wouldn’t welcome her… as if there were no Rotheira Duke.
Only the wind, mixed with sand, swept through the empty chest.
Death is so futile.
‘I won’t let anyone die.’
So Renisha will protect. To prevent anyone from dying.
Cassius paced in front of the carriage.
After finishing the affairs of the bipeds, he immediately followed Renisha.
Just the fact that Renisha was going to meet Lexus was unsettling.
Even if she knew all of Renisha’s emotions toward Lexus…
They had a time when they lived as a married couple.
Cassius would have had things between them that Renisha didn’t know.
It fueled Cassius’s jealousy.
“Renisha!”
Cassius ran towards Renisha, who was coming out with something in her arms.
“Cassius? Did you wrap up the conversation well with the guests?”
Renisha asked in a gentle voice.
However, emptiness was piled up in the distant background.
Cassius’s eyebrows twitched as he keenly noticed it.
“Renisha. What’s wrong?”
Renisha blinked.
It was because she received unexpected criticism.
She thought she didn’t show it.
Cassius, who understood it without words, was so grateful.
Renisha presented the coffin she held in her arms to Cassius.
“… These are the remains of the son and daughter-in-law that Viscount Calliot wanted to recover so desperately.”
“…”
Cassius reached out and swept over the top of the coffin.
“This was it. What Viscount Calliot wished for. Only this… It seems the Emperor is a breed lacking empathy. He doesn’t understand anything about others’ pain and sorrow. I…”
Renisha’s voice trembled.
“Viscount Calliot died. Viscount Calliot, Cassius, he… was my father’s friend, and he was also the mentor who taught me and Lexus.”
As Renisha blinked, tears traced down.
It was the tears she had been suppressing.
Since she discovered the coffin piled in the corner with cobwebs.
“Although it was a short time, we learned strategy and tactics from Viscount Calliot. Lexus, that bastard… that crazy son of a bitch…”
Renisha bowed her head.
She couldn’t continue speaking.
Uncontrollable curses burst out randomly.
Viscount Calliot’s death left a deep scar on Renisha, but Lexus, who caused it, didn’t feel any impact.
It was incomprehensible. Unacceptable.
If it weren’t for Lexus, things that shouldn’t have been lost kept coming to mind.
And that was connected to Renisha’s deep sense of guilt.
It was related to the past when she treated a beast as Rotheira.
Cassius reached out to Renisha.
“… Renisha.”
“I don’t know how fortunate I am that you’re here. Honestly, I begged and begged as I opened the door. I hoped you would appear in front of me.”
“…”
“Oddly, I feel relieved when you’re by my side. Even if I become a mess, it seems like you won’t abandon me. You seem like you’ll help me stand up again and lead me forward.”
“…”
Cassius sighed.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
