It was unclear whether Prince Neryl was praising or mocking Lexis. What was the prince’s intention? Although they had gathered to celebrate the Three Serpent Festival, it was a well-known fact that they were entangled in their own interests.
But did he have to make such ambiguous remarks?
‘He’s fearless.’
At this rate, if Lexis were to dance with a sword like before, what would happen? There was no law saying that the blade aimed at Gael couldn’t be directed at Prince Neryl. The Kingdom of Illian did not have such formidable military power or wealth.
“Prince Neryl.”
Lexis burst into laughter. It was a refreshing laughter that overturned everyone’s anxiety.
“So, that’s what you think. Unfortunately, you’re wrong. I’m currently earnestly courting Renisha, like a courtship bird. Didn’t you see it earlier?”
The expressions of those listening became even more uncomfortable. It was an expression that didn’t know where the food was going. And Cassius?
Renisha, along with a few others, turned their gaze towards Cassius.
Snap!
Cassius’s knife was stuck upside down on the table. Those who watched turned their heads as if they hadn’t seen anything. Renisha chuckled at Cassius’s cute banter.
‘My cute puppy.’
How willingly Cassius revealed everything without hiding anything. Twisting and begging like that, he was worlds apart from Lexis.
Cassius sighing and pulling out the knife was also cute. Renisha enjoyed the taste. Sometimes she thought that she could just throw everything away and embrace Cassius for a month and lie in bed.
Renisha’s eyes narrowed as she thought about it.
‘That would be enjoyable too.’
Cassius, who had no idea what Renisha was thinking, was devouring his food greedily. With the momentum of devouring all the food here.
Meanwhile, Prince Neryl seemed to sincerely feel like he had about two lives.
“In fact, an outstanding woman doesn’t suit the next seat.”
“Why is that?”
“Because it’s disturbing if an external variable interferes. So, Renisha, you are in the right place now.”
“What kind of place does it look like?”
Prince Neryl looked around at everyone. Then he smirked mockingly.
“Please listen and forget. Isn’t it almost the same as His Majesty, the Emperor’s government?”
“Absurd!”
The nobles objected.
“Renisha is the Duchess of Loterra! Moreover, she was born with a noble lineage! More noble than Prince Neryl! How dare you!”
The beard of a nobleman who shouted objections trembled. Most of the nobles who Renisha disliked had a distressed expression. Fold your arms inward. They are the only ones who can curse Renisha. Where did the outsider come from!
“The Loterra Ducal House has a long and prestigious history for generations! It’s hard to believe what I’m hearing.”
Other people also expressed discomfort.
In fact, the Loterra Ducal House existed as a separate kingdom.
The ancestor who was called the last Gongwang (Imperial Martial King) relinquished autonomy and willingly submitted to the emperor. Nevertheless, the Loterra Ducal House still had the ability to train soldiers and had many other exceptions.
Despite this, Lexis handed over the entire family to Hyloshine’s Cassius. Nevertheless, the glory of the past was still remembered.
Was it someone who couldn’t even acknowledge the right to the throne?
Renisha of Hientry!
“Whoa, why are you all so angry?”
Prince Neryl laughed, staggering. Judging by that appearance, it was clear that he was trying to take control of Lexis. Renisha chuckled. It seemed like he was trying to somehow match Lexis’s mood, wanting to cut him down by flattering him.
He seriously misunderstood. Even after Princess Donata went out and fell, he still thought that way.
“I just thought I should learn something like that. I came here to find a mentor. While at it, I should make a smart friend following Her Majesty. Hahaha!”
Prince Neryl laughed louder, seemingly pleased with his joke.
Even though the air had cooled down, he paid no attention. Lexis raised his hand with an inscrutable face.
“Listen.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Immediately imprison that lunatic. Also, convey to the prince’s homeland that, since the prince insulted and denigrated the major nobles of his homeland, he must pay the price for it. A fitting price for Renisha’s dignity must be paid!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The knights shouted with determined faces.
Lexis seemed equally cold. Prince Neryl resisted for a while but was eventually dragged away. Renisha smirked.
‘He’s probably trying to cover both ends.’
There might be a penny of intention to protect Renisha. And the rest would be to gain something using Prince Neryl as an excuse.
Actually, how could one know what was inside that mind?
Renisha tilted her head. Was Prince Neryl’s words offensive? No. Lexis made it that way from the beginning. It wasn’t so much that it felt bad; it had become somewhat predictable.
Or maybe deep-seated anger buried in her heart was absorbing everything.
The second act ended with the second sacrifice.
Turi approached Cassius, who looked uncomfortable.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
