…Why can’t she argue with this?
Anyway, it was time to wrap things up now. I said my last words.
“I’m looking forward to who Jichan will choose.”
I was genuinely looking forward to it. How this chaotic drama would end.
“Is it over now? I’ll be going.”
I left Han Yewon behind and walked towards the door.
“Wait!”
Han Yewon called me from behind. I turned my head slightly to look at her.
“You… Can you take responsibility for what you just said?”
“What do you mean?”
“That Jichan will choose you.”
No… I don’t want to take responsibility for that.
But since I chose to be the villain, I should go all the way. Seong Jichan, you better repay this debt later. I smiled and said with determination.
“Yeah. Of course.”
Han Yewon’s face turned pale at my words. …I feel a bit sorry for her to be this shocked.
But there’s nothing I can do. Sorry. In the next life, maybe you’ll be born as the female lead too…
“Goodbye.”
I left the rooftop like that, leaving Han Yewon behind.
After School.
‘She’s quite something too.’
Returning home, I reminisced about what happened earlier.
‘Why does she like Seong Jichan so much?’
It hadn’t been a long time, but having spent the last few months somewhat close to Seong Jichan, I couldn’t understand.
‘Han Yewon isn’t particularly great either, but does that mean there’s a need to pine after Seong Jichan?’
Considering the circumstances, she should be able to meet other decent guys.
The world is vast, and there are plenty of men, so why Seong Jichan? Does he have some charm that I’m unaware of?
‘Would things change if they dated?’
… I pondered this for a moment, but since I didn’t really want to confirm it, I decided to stop here.
‘Well, who cares? It’s something that has passed, so let’s not dwell on it.’
I erased thoughts about Han Yewon from my mind.
‘Anyway, what should I do now?’
It was a rare free time. I lay down on the bed for a moment and decided to explore the newly updated features of the system while I had the time.
The chosen feature was ‘Map.’
It was a function I had postponed last time, saying I would check it later.
When I touched it, the map of our neighborhood appeared before my eyes.
‘Oh.’
Last time, only the map of my room was visible, but now, the entire neighborhood was displayed. It seemed like there was an option to set the range.
Three points twinkled on the map.
One was green, and the other two were red.
Roughly understanding what they were, I still asked the system to confirm.
“What are these markings?”
[They represent the locations of characters!]As expected.
The green one was probably my location, and the red ones were the locations of other people.
‘But why are there two red dots?’
I had a guess about one of them. Ban Hamin. Since he lives in our neighborhood, looking at the direction of the house, it seemed like the one in the upper left could be Ban Hamin.
But I couldn’t guess the other one.
It wasn’t from Samdae Boy, and it wouldn’t be those guys from Haeseong High School far away… Was it Jiseunghyun or Han Yewon? Or someone else?
Two characters in this neighborhood. Suddenly, I wanted to move.
“Can’t I know who this is?”
Just in case, I pressed the dot, hoping for a name to appear, but the map remained unchanged.
[To confirm the location, you have to directly check the character at the respective place!]It’s really annoying…
‘This one pretends to be cutting-edge, but there are a lot of things it can’t do subtly.’
Probably, the system was kindly encouraging me to interact directly with the characters by running around. I didn’t need that kind of consideration… Anyway, it became troublesome.
‘What time is it now?’
I checked my watch. It was 8 PM. It wasn’t that late yet.
“Then I should go check who it is.”
I grabbed a thin coat to go outside.
[Oh, nice! 〉ㅁ〈]As always, the system welcomed my going out. Seeing the system behave like that, I suddenly didn’t feel like going.
‘…There hasn’t been anything good about what it likes.’
Hmm. It seems ominous. I’ll just go, see the person’s face, and quickly come back.
‘I shouldn’t even greet.’
I firmly made up my mind and turned on the map.
Unlike the red dot presumed to be Ban Hamin, which remained still, the red dot with an unknown name kept moving.
Looking at the current location and the direction it was moving… the destination was probably the adjacent apartment?
‘The rent is expensive there because it’s a new building.’
It seemed that the owner of the dot was a child living in a quite well-off house.
As expected, the red dot stopped at the adjacent building. Living so close. If I didn’t have the map, I wouldn’t have known at all.
Since I didn’t want to meet the characters after school, I needed to use the map function wisely and actively avoid them…
‘It’s not the right time for this. I need to quickly see the face before the red dot enters the house.’
I hurriedly went down the stairs.
When I arrived on the first floor, I hid my face with a hood and cautiously peeked out. According to the map, I should be able to confirm the face well enough from this distance.
‘Are they still outside?’
I looked around, searching for familiar faces.
And unexpectedly found a presence, freezing in place.
‘Whoa.’
The identity of the red dot was Seol Yuhwa.
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.
