“Is this the document you are looking for?”
“Yes, exactly the same as 10 years ago.”
Then the Emperor added,
“Burn it and destroy it.”
But Kenny’s answer was unexpected.
“This document is protected by magic. Only the person who cast the spell can undo it, then it can be burned.”
“The caster is dead. Is there no way?”
“It is possible with a more advanced wizard than the dead one.”
“Do I have to find a more advanced wizard than you?”
“I’m sorry, but yes. I cannot destroy this document with my abilities.”
Yan had a frustrated expression. Due to the war of Kalaym, most of the wizards were sacrificed or hidden to avoid being sacrificed. Kenny also barely survived the war after being burned and losing both eyes.
‘I need to get rid of this as soon as possible….’
Yan felt that then he could be at ease.

Atop the Black Castle’s tower.
Christine, leaning on the battlements with arms folded, had his eyes closed, concentrating on the sounds coming in.
[Then find a more advanced wizard quickly.] [It will take some time.] [I trust only you.]Creak.
Thud, thud…….
The sound of the Emperor closing the door and walking away was heard.
Christine was lost in thought for a moment.
Having received the blank document, Yan met with a wizard to verify its authenticity. After confirming that it was genuine, he wanted to burn it right away.
That means the blank document was Yan’s weakness.
The reason for trying to get hold of it was that if it came out, he would be in great trouble.
“Yes, exactly the same as 10 years ago.”
The document was written 10 years ago.
The fact that Earl Oswald was ambushed by thieves and left for dead was also said to have happened 10 years ago.
Were the two events related?
The Earl got his hands on a document containing the Duke of Valencia’s weaknesses, and the Duke tried to kill the Earl using thieves to snatch it. However, the murder failed, and the Earl was left for dead.
As a result, the document was sleeping in the Earl’s vault and eventually passed on to Adel.
Christine’s lips curled up as he built up this hypothesis.
“It’s turning out to be more fun than I thought.”
Just as the Emperor had found Adel’s weakness, he had found the Emperor’s.
Moreover, he could retrieve the document at any time. Adel had had it for a long time, and her scent had soaked into it. The Emperor could hide it anywhere, but he would find it quickly.
The Emperor still did not know his ability well.
(This is a time separator.)
Three days later, on the engagement day.
“I don’t know if it’s really a dream or reality, engaged to Vice Count Bais!”
Tanya had repeated that line several times since morning.
Although she had smiled quietly each time, Adel felt the same.
She had just come out of Mark’s clinic yesterday afternoon after barely pulling herself together. And today was the engagement.
Moreover, thanks to the Emperor’s special consideration, the engagement ceremony of the two would be held in the imperial palace.
In the imperial palace’s grand ballroom, where she had felt unjust and miserable every year, accused of being a wicked woman.
That was not all. The Emperor allowed her to stay in the guest room for the engagement preparations. Outside the guest room, guards who had become Christine’s subordinates were watching.
This was all treatment on par with a princess.
Inside the guest room, Chanel’s top designers were dressing Adel, doing her makeup, and hair.
Tanya was watching all this, constantly admiring.
“Now, it’s done. Do you like it?”
At Madame Chanel’s words, the maids brought a fulllength mirror in front of Adel.
“……!”
Adel’s eyes widened at the unfamiliar woman in the mirror.
Thanks to the elaborate makeup, her transparent and fair skin looked more lustrous and innocent. Still, her green eyes were emphasized to feel more enchanting, and her lips were moist and lovely like freshly bloomed rose petals.
Her wavy, pinnedup hair was adorned with mist flowers and pearls, highlighting her slender and graceful neck and shoulders.
There, an ivory dress, Madame Chanel’s greatest ambition, made her look like a perfect goddess.
“Kyah, so pretty, so pretty!”
Tanya and the maids screamed in a fuss next to her.
“You don’t have to cheer that much.”
A bashful Adel gave them a gentle hint.
But Madame Chanel also agreed, fixing the dress’s pleats.
“Oh my, admiration is only natural. It’s my finest work for you, madam. I’m really worried the Count might have a heart attack.”
Madame Chanel was as skilled in talking as she was in her craft. It was no wonder she was popular in Callaime.
Despite knowing it was flattery, Adel was a little excited. She indeed liked her appearance, more beautiful than usual. The thought of showing it to Christine already made her heart pound.
“Thank you. Thanks to you, madam, both the Count and I will have a happy day.”
“If you say so, it’s even more an honor for me. Congratulations on your engagement.”
It was when Madame Chanel was softly embracing Adel and greeting her.
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.”
