To The Eternal Knight (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 166
Count Rosa’s residence was as impregnable as Nerea had personally witnessed with her own eyes. If Alejandro were inside, not even the Emperor himself could have dared to apprehend him so recklessly.
Unlike Nerea, whose expression remained perfectly unchanged, the neutral nobles’ faces had turned ashen.
David Illauser, Ronald Illauser, and the other neutral nobles bit their lips and lowered their heads.
Unlike Nerea Esteban, they couldn’t even muster the courage to ask the scout about the condition of their own families.
“The capital is empty.”
When David heard Nerea’s words, it felt as though the heavens themselves had collapsed—though he had only agreed to send the scout out of a sliver of desperate hope.
Their father, holed up in a mere townhouse rather than an actual fortress within the blockaded capital, was the perfect target for the Emperor.
David wasn’t alone. Each noble felt a surge of overwhelming anxiety for their families still inside the capital.
In the end, it fell to the Grand Duke, Edward, to question the scout on behalf of the nobles—half of whom had already resigned themselves to despair. Even Edward found it difficult to speak.
As he hesitated, his lips twitching, Edward’s eyes met Nerea’s.
Unable to bear the silent question in her gaze—“Is there something worse?”—Edward turned away from her and addressed the scout instead.
“Are Count Illauser and the other neutral nobles all safe?”
Only then did Nerea instantly understand why the nobles’ expressions had collectively frozen. Yet, seeing their faces stiffened as if awaiting an official announcement, she kept her mouth shut.
After all, whatever answer the scout gave would surely favor her.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
