“Those of Hisham’s lineage with sanctity not only clear their names.”
Renisha lifted her lips.
“The direct descendants can ascend to the nobility through me.”
Luna’s eyes widened.
“The forgotten lineage of the lord is returning. It’s practically the resurrection of the mixed race.”
Luna swallowed her saliva.
“Is that really possible?”
“There’s no reason it shouldn’t be. The child inheriting mine and Cassius’s lineage will become Duke Lotera and govern Hiloshine. And another child will become the emperor.”
“Th-then…”
Renisha didn’t miss Luna’s greed reflected in her eyes.
Renisha whispered gently.
“If this goes well, you will become the emperor’s knight.”
“…Will the leader allow that?”
“I’ll take care of that matter.”
Reluctantly, Luna nodded.
Turiel swallowed dry spit.
Always thinking, Renisha was truly resourceful.
She knew how to manipulate every situation in her favor.
By involving the temple, Renisha gained trust.
And she would use the mixed race and Cassius to win the lottery and gain sanctity from it.
All this happened between yesterday and today, in just a few hours, and Renisha came up with these plans.
Her adaptability to rapidly changing situations was truly remarkable.
“Now, Turiel. Do you understand what you have to do?”
“Yes, Lady Renisha.”
Turiel nodded with a determined face.
Cassius swung his sword.
The events from yesterday kept replaying in his mind.
He was completely enchanted by Renisha.
Kissing her in front of so many people!
Of course, he had such desires.
He wanted to show everyone who Renisha’s wife was.
Wasn’t that a natural desire, even with the crazy Lexus around?
Still, he managed to stop himself from such actions.
Really?
“Then the sword will break, Your Excellency the Duke.”
Cassius turned his head abruptly.
The voice that dug into sensitive ears was a pleasant baritone.
Familiar but not friendly.
It seemed an uninvited guest had arrived.
“Prince Mateo…”
“Long time no see.”
Cassius lowered his sword.
There was a reason why Mateo came all the way into danger.
Mateo was active in Hientri, hiding his identity.
A bridge connecting the Shandir Kingdom and Renisha.
“What brings you here?”
Cassius wiped away the sweat on his forehead.
It was blinding under the scorching sunlight.
“What brings me here…”
Mateo gave a faint smile.
“There’s been a change in Hiloshine, Duke.”
Cassius let out a faint groan.
Cassius, who had lowered his sword, donned his shirt with a stern expression.
Cassius walked side by side with Mateo.
“Please explain in detail, Prince.”
“…Mercenaries have infiltrated Hiloshine.”
Tension spread across Cassius’s face.
“The one who hired the mercenaries is Master Henry. He used to work in Hiloshine. It seems he hired mercenaries after fleeing Hiloshine.”
“Get to the point.”
“Brixton has been severely injured.”
Mateo spoke with a dark voice.
“He’s teetering between life and death. Is it possible for Lady Hailin to return? Brixton may not last much longer.”
Cassius turned his head slowly.
The spring breeze that was blowing around him, like a storm centered on him, subsided.
It wasn’t the time when he was with Renisha in a fairy tale.
Cassius blinked his eyes slowly.
“He may not last much longer…”
“…Unless a miracle happens… It is said that life can be extended.”
“What do you mean?”
“It involves inducing a state akin to a plant human.”
“Is it possible?”
“It’s unlikely, but it’s worth a try.”
Mateo and Cassius exchanged words quickly.
Those who sensed their seriousness quietly made way for them.
The world was unpredictable.
If you let your guard down, surprises like this would happen.
Cassius was thinking of Renisha at this moment.
She seemed strong but was a delicate person.
Would that tearful woman hiding deep inside Renisha emerge again?
Just thinking about it made his chest ache.
Cassius furrowed his brows.
“…So, I’m rushing here like this. If possible, I want to bring Lady Hailin to Hiloshine.”
“Is the prince planning to move personally?”
“I couldn’t bring them here, but I traveled with the elite knights of Shandir.”
“…I see.”
“Hurry. You need to reach Lady Renisha immediately. The decision… they leave it to both of you.”
“Is the child okay?”
Mateo hesitated.
He slowly nodded.
Isabella, who had been in the arms of the knights, looked like she was about to collapse.
“For the child’s sake, Lady Hailin is needed, even if just for a moment.”
Cassius closed his eyes tightly.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:

Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
