To The Eternal Knight (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 137
“What’s there that I can’t climb?!”
Claude’s mind boiled with black, violent impulses. His eyes, gleaming with thick murderous intent, glared as if they could pierce through the Grand Duke’s throat. The sword on one side of the office flickered before his eyes.
No matter that the Grand Duke was the guardian of Valer territory—Claude himself was a knight held in the highest regard among countless brilliant knights of the Empire.
It would take mere seconds—just enough to swing his sword and drive it into that marked throat.
How wonderful it would be if he could kill the Grand Duke right here and now.
But Claude slowly licked his lips.
Unlike Claude, who stood with his back to the crimson sunset, the Grand Duke faced that dazzling light head-on. For a moment, his eyes narrowed as if dazzled.
That was exactly how the Grand Duke’s face should look when gazing upon him—daring not to meet his eyes directly, forever hiding an envious gaze from behind his back.
…And forever unaware of what had truly been stolen from him.
If the Grand Duke were to die right here and now, he would never know what fate had slipped past him—and just imagining that filled Claude with such pleasure that a cruel smile crept onto his lips.
“So, does it burn your gut now that you’ve lost something once?”
The Grand Duke tried to provoke him with that taunting remark, but it was useless. Calming his mind, Claude shrugged exaggeratedly and laughed.
“Lost something? Me?”
The Grand Duke couldn’t possibly miss the sudden shift in atmosphere. He needed to provoke just a little more. He had to uncover what schemes the Crown Prince—who had always stolen others’ merits—was plotting, if only to gain a bit more confidence when meeting Nerea.
But the Crown Prince quickly composed himself, curling the corners of his mouth with feigned nonchalance.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
