When The Silver Bell Of Charlotte's Pharmacy Rings (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 182
Matiel sprang to his feet before Little had even finished speaking. His expression was so ferocious that even a whining child would have been startled into silence. Yet Little looked up at Matiel with eyes utterly unafraid.
“So you are indeed as hot-tempered as I’d heard.”
A sharp creaking sound echoed—jawbones grinding. Matiel, struggling to suppress the urge to strike Little right then and there, sank back heavily onto his seat. His exhale carried a tangle of anger and confusion.
“Did you not just say, with your own lips, that you were concerned about the current crisis?”
Little nodded. A faint smile still lingered at the corners of his mouth, irritating Matiel immensely.
“Do you truly believe that if you hole yourself up in your tower, sighing every three steps and gazing skyward in lamentation, the vampires will simply vanish on their own? I wonder—do you even know what that creature truly is? And if you fail to eliminate them, do you think magicians will somehow remain safe?”
Little’s shoulders gave a slight shrug.
“Of course, we would not be safe.”
“Are you trying to play word games with me?”
Matiel had to grip the armrest of his chair tightly just to keep his voice from rising. Anyone could see from the stark whiteness of his knuckles how much restraint he was exercising.
Yet this magician named Little seemed determined to test Matiel’s patience further. His face still bore that faint, amused smile.
“Please calm yourself and hear me out to the end. Naturally, the magicians of the Tower—the Great Masters, their disciples, and all those striving to climb the tangled vines of knowledge that reach the spire’s peak—are deeply alert and troubled by this matter.”
Little paused there to take a breath. The corners of his eyes, already crinkled with a subtle smile, narrowed even further.
“But we are also concerned that the House of Roanoke should continue as it is.”
Matiel let out a sharp, incredulous laugh.
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.

The guards are to protect the kingdom, it makes no sense to prioritize the guards well being over the kingdoms well being. That is precisely what the 2nd prince has done by letting Maleblanc go and calling a retreat.
