This Life, I Will Save The Duke (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 82
Having finished preparing for bed, Ariel used the thread she’d bought earlier that day to make a lucky bracelet for Kaius—and while she was at it, one for herself as well.
“How pretty…”
Lifting her arm to gaze at the bracelet now adorning her wrist, Ariel smiled faintly. Then she opened the lowest drawer of her dressing table. Even after pulling it fully open, the medicine bottle was nowhere to be seen. Only after reaching deep inside did she finally pull out the white pill container, which she stared at in silence.
[All I want is one thing. If you truly wish to stay by my side and save me, bear the heir of Elbaltan. After that, you may leave or stay—I’ll honor your choice.]
She knew. She knew this might be an even greater deception than before.
Yet she couldn’t possibly give him the child he desired. She lacked the confidence to protect a child born with abilities like her own from demons and greedy people.
Just hide it, you say?
When someone beside you is wounded, and you possess the power to heal them—how many could simply stand by and watch?
For an ordinary person, hiding such power would be utterly impossible—leading inevitably to yet another life of exploitation and turmoil. The outcome was painfully clear, so how could she possibly bring a child into the world? Even after thinking it through again, there was only one choice.
If she couldn’t give him a child, he would surely turn to another woman—as most nobles did. The thought alone made her frown unconsciously, but Ariel shook her head, brushing the notion away.
After all, Kaius only wanted a successor to carry on Elbaltan. Once he was healed, everything would be resolved.
Lost in thought for a moment, Ariel opened the medicine bottle with a look of resolve. She wiped the moisture from her lips with a handkerchief, then, her heart feeling lighter, began sketching the interior layout of the building she’d seen earlier that day.
Just then, the door between their bedrooms opened soundlessly. Kaius tapped lightly on the doorframe to catch Ariel’s attention, who seemed absorbed in something.
She slowly lifted her gaze—and to her relief, he showed no signs of having been attacked by monsters today. Biting her lip, Ariel rose from her chair.
Kaius’s eyebrow arched slightly as she approached him. She wasn’t wearing the dress she’d stubbornly clung to all this time. Wrapped in a robe, her passage past him into the bedroom released a delicate fragrance that made him sigh involuntarily.
My Arch-enemy Sealed My Memory and Said That He is My Husband
This is an incredibly captivating story that you absolutely shouldn’t miss! I’ll give a brief introduction here, and below you’ll find a detailed synopsis of the plot.
The female lead is a fierce and powerful demon king. The male lead is a once-in-a-millennium celestial lord, admired by the entire cultivation world.
They are equally matched, legendary rivals who have battled for centuries.
In the final duel, the female lead is gravely injured. The male lead saves her, seals her memories, and hides her true identity. He tells her that he is her fiancé. His entire life has been flawless—except for the one thing he never expected, never controlled, and never wanted to control: falling for his greatest enemy. She is his inner demon, his obsession.
When the female lead regains her memories, she is furious at his deception.
She makes his life a living hell.
And somehow, the male lead—possibly a total masochist—doesn’t mind at all. In fact, he’s happy she’s paying attention to him.
Yep, we’re back to my favorite trope: male lead suffering. If you love this kind of story, jump into the pit with me now!!!
Intro
Dong Xia lost her memory.
Her handsome and extremely powerful fiancé Li Qing comforted her: “It’s okay if you can’t remember. I’ll always be with you.”
Everyone thought Dong Xia’s ancestors must have burned incense to get such a perfect fiancé. He was the number one person in the immortal realm, yet he remained chaste and only loved her.
…
The day before marrying her fiancé, Dong Xia finally remembered everything.
She wasn’t suffering from memory loss at all.
Her arch-enemy had made her fake her death, destroyed her cultivation, replaced her memories, and pretended to be her deeply in love fiancé.
No wonder he said, “It’s okay if you can’t remember”!
Dong Xia laughed coldly as she pulled out her long knife: Li Qing, prepare to die 🙂
*
Li Qing, as the supreme being of the immortal realm, was the people’s shining beacon.
The only unknown stain in his life was his affection for Dong Xia, the ruler of the demon realm.
In the final battle of the war between immortals and demons, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. The ruler of the demon realm was finally slain under the sword of the supreme being of the immortal realm, and everyone in the immortal realm applauded.
The cultivation world lost a ruler of the demon realm.
And in the back mountain of Li Qing’s cave dwelling, he secretly hid away a fiancée.
Notes:
1. The female lead is white on the outside, black on the inside, and the queen of flattery; the male lead repeatedly tests the edge of darkness, a VIP guest at the crematorium.
2. Fantasy cultivation world setting.
