Tiendavis - For Perfect Salvation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 196
That day twenty years ago was no different for Cassel—nothing was lacking.
A large window welcoming unfiltered sunlight and a gentle breeze drifting in.
A gleaming marble floor, harmoniously arranged furniture, and a serene masterpiece painting adorning one wall.
Carefully selected cookies and black tea to aid the young master’s concentration, along with the famously learned but dreadfully dull voice of Viscount Verde.
“The Grand Duchy of Montra traces its roots to the Montra royal house that once ruled western Vis.”
Cassel Montra was the young heir of Montra, praised merely for sitting there and learning, yet feeling no real satisfaction.
“The Kingdom of Montra was the most advanced among Vis’s four nations. While others obsessed over expanding their power, Montra devoted itself to restoring ancient heritage. Tienda’s fine order and culture were shaped thanks to Montra’s efforts.”
“So all we got in return was a mere marquisate? If we’d built up our army like Laurel or Bayen, we’d have become archdukes or dukes.”
“It’s true that military strength greatly influenced the ranking of high nobles, but rather than regretting it, you should take pride in it, young master.”
Viscount Verde sighed deeply at young Cassel’s bluntness, then carefully corrected his pupil’s coltish temperament.
“When Laurel and Bayen pursued immediate gains, Montra wrote books to benefit the world at large. Had Montra also entered the war, we would have lost all of our ancient civilization.”
“So you’re saying we only did good for others.”
“It was good for everyone. If you see it as a loss, your ancestors would be heartbroken.”
“But descendants are already sad from being ranked so low.”
Cassel refused to yield easily, and Viscount Verde shook his head again.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Stop that’s so sweet 😭😭 she’s wants to keep living with her family, those she loves most 😭😭
Noooooooo!! 😭😭 Not a world where she never meets Deis!!
Deis I know you’re capable, but please be careful!
