“I have both good news and bad news.”
“Start with the good news.”
“The Papal Office rejected Stone’s objection. So, you and Miss Adel can officially get married.”
Even after hearing this, Kristin’s expression remained unchanged, making Yan slightly puzzled.
“You already knew, huh?”
“A little while ago.”
“Then, have you also heard the bad news?”
When Kristin showed interest in the bad news, Yan sighed as if troubled.
“Lordwell Duke has sent a letter to the Papal Office. He’s asking them to investigate the silver wolf that appeared in Calaim.”
“I concluded that the silver wolf rumor was a fake spread by Stone to conceal his identity.”
“I said the same. However, the Duke seems unwilling to back down this time. He said he would personally deliver the letter to the Papal Office.”
Kristin chuckled nonchalantly.
“Without evidence, will the Papal Office believe him?”
“If it’s Lordwell Duke, he might have enough influence to move the Papal Office. If they start an investigation, both Stone and you could be in danger.”
Kristin read Yan’s cunning intentions.
“So, you want me to take care of Lordwell Duke?”
Yan’s expression, which had sighed just moments ago, brightened.
“You’re quick to catch on.”
He wanted Kristin to eliminate Lordwell Duke and prevent Stone’s identity as a wolf from being revealed, which could endanger April as well.
“I refuse.”
Yan had already anticipated the refusal and continued with the next condition.
“If you resolve this matter, I’ll appoint you as the Duchess of Yannel. I’ll also arrange for a hero’s welcome and allow you to return to your territory. If you wish, I can even grant autonomy.”
“There won’t be any more killing for you, Yan.”
Upon hearing this, Yan’s face turned cold.
“Do you want to be exposed and chased away by the Papal Office? Now you need to think about your wife. Huh? This might be the last chance. Swear it on the Emperor’s name.”
Kristin didn’t trust Yan’s promises. Still, if an investigator from the Papal Office appeared, it would undoubtedly be troublesome. And this might be an unexpectedly good opportunity.
“Well, then, rest for a while and think it over.”
As Yan left the reception room, he had a very considerate expression, as if he had personally visited to express concern. Leading his guards, he returned with the same arrogance. However, Adel was only anxious.
Knowing he was more calculating and perhaps more cunning than Stone in some aspects, and though he didn’t show it, Kristin’s expression seemed quite complicated.
“Why did Your Majesty visit?”
She asked cautiously as the emperor rode away.
“I had something to ask of him.”
“He said he couldn’t grant your request.”
He looked at her unexpectedly.
“Can he really refuse? Even if the other party is the emperor?”
Adel sighed.
“Yeah. It was the emperor, after all. I feel like I should sprinkle salt on him or something so he won’t appear again.”
“Maybe you should give it a try. It could be fun.”
As Kristin chuckled, Adel glanced at her with a faint smile.
“Now you find it amusing?”
“It’s my final request. After finishing this task, I’m allowed to return to Ruswulf.”
However, with the mention of it being the last, Adel felt an unexplained sense of unease.
“Is that request… something dangerous?”
“Adel, there’s nothing dangerous for me.”
“Wow, where does that confidence come from? So, what is it? Tell me.”
Kristin only gave an ambiguous expression without an answer.
“Since you’re not telling, it must be something risky.”
“I need to go somewhere for 2 or 3 days.”
“Where?”
“Let’s leave for Ruswulf as soon as I return.”
Seeing Kristin continue to remain silent, Adel’s voice grew slightly louder.
“Where on earth are you going for 2 or 3 days?”
After hesitating for a moment, he reluctantly answered.
“Bluegale. I’m sorry, but I can’t say more.”
However, Adel’s green eyes persistently questioned what purpose he had.
Afraid that he might inadvertently confess everything, he turned Adel’s shoulders toward the direction of the dining room.
“End of questions! Let’s go for the meal.”
“Ugh!”
As Adel pouted her lips,
Chuuk.
“Oops, what was that!”
Surprised, Adel looked at him with widened eyes as he chuckled playfully.
“I thought you were asking for a kiss when you stuck out your lips.”
“Huh. When did you become so bold?”
“Yeah, when did I become like this?”
“In the future, do such things only in front of me. Got it?”
“Okay.”
Chuuk.
This time, Adel kissed him on the lips quietly and said with a shy smile.
“This is a promise seal.”
Finding her adorable, Kristin had to endure the urge to kiss her again.
The next day.
When Adel woke up early in the morning, the side where he had been lying was already cold.
She thought he had left in the morning, but he must have left in the early dawn while everyone was asleep.
In place of him was a neatly folded note.
[I’ll be back as soon as possible.Let’s have a wedding ceremony at the cathedral by the Garden Lakeside before the cherry blossoms fall.
From your loving husband.]
“Chee.”
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.”
