Who Did You Say My Father Is? - Chapter 24
“If His Majesty the Emperor has passed away…”
“Passed away?”
“That warrant. The one that allows forced transportation if there’s no response to the summons.”
“Yes, that warrant. Why?”
“Wouldn’t that be invalid now? The person who granted it is dead, so the document should naturally be void.”
That made sense. The Emperor’s permission is valid only while the Emperor is alive. So, Karl knew all this and kept silent about it.
And he used the Emperor’s warrant to get me on the train, revealing the truth only when it was too late to turn back.
“So, the Duke knew all this while talking to me?”
I stared aimlessly at the door Karl had exited through, but that only made my eyes hurt.
“Ah, I don’t know. I can’t figure it out.”
My head ached from thinking too much, and I was hungry. It had been dark outside for a while. Today, I had only eaten a brunch.
If I were at home, I would have gone out to find some snacks, but this was a train. I had to eat whatever was given to me, and this train from Urentum to the Central-Southern Station didn’t have a kitchen car, so there wasn’t much to eat.
“Originally, this train wasn’t scheduled to operate today, but His Highness the Duke hurriedly started it, so… there was no food prepared. We’ll arrive at the Central-Southern Station tomorrow and change trains, so please bear with it a bit longer, Countess.”
Tomorrow, we’ll change trains at the Central-Southern Station. It seems I’ll finally get to see outside food after four days.
“Alright, let’s sleep. Sleep. When you’re hungry, you should sleep.”
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
