Jane, Gang, Samyoung.
Three people were together.
Who could it be?
The Mongma that invaded Gang’s sanctuary, targeting her.
“…”
Was the culprit among them?
Bang!
Jane, dragged in half unconscious, woke up in a dark room.
“Ugh, darn it… Where am I…?”
To assess the situation, her eyes darted around busily.
The first thing she saw was the cold, dark interior with a glossy black base.
When she turned her head towards the pouring light, a splendid urban landscape unfolded beyond the large window.
Standing near the window was the back of a strange man.
Wearing a sleek black suit, he smoothly absorbed the atmosphere and slowly turned around.
Beneath neatly combed pomade-coated hair, deep and sharp eyes were entrenched like an abyss.
Under the pressure of his overwhelming presence, Jane’s shoulders hunched even more.
However, that arrogant face looking down at her seemed oddly familiar.
It was only belatedly that she realized he was No Jitae, the owner of Moon Enterprises.
Each time she saw him introduced in the media, she thought he was an extraordinary figure, but she never knew he was a Mongma.
Moreover, she could never have imagined that he would appear in the human world like this.
“I thought you were a reckless guy, but you’re a newly born Mongma.”
“W-Who are you…?”
“I’m asking who I am.”
He wasn’t asking if she knew he was No Jitae; he was asking about No Jitae’s hidden true identity.
However, soon under the tremendous pressure, Jane involuntarily flattened herself, feeling as if her bones would crumble.
Standing next to her was a guy in a black robe.
This was the guy who, despite being a formidable opponent, had brought her here in a trance.
Although the guy next to her was also not an easy opponent, the man in front of her was on a different level.
She could instinctively feel it.
Jane knelt and lowered her head, opening her mouth.
“…Oguil(591) presents himself. I greet the king.”
After the mysterious disappearance of Ily(212), who was the king of the first generation of Mongmas, Iso(245) succeeded the throne.
Jane was convinced that the man in front of her was the current king of the Mongmas, rumored to be extraordinary.
His overwhelming charisma was truly threatening.
No, the word threatening was insufficient.
Up until that day, Jane, who had never tasted defeat even once, found herself flat on the ground, facing a mysterious guy brought here, and she couldn’t even fathom his power.
To survive,
“I-I’ll do anything if you spare my life.”
“…”
“I’ll do anything…!”
When it was time to plead flat on the ground, Jane did so without realizing it.
Jitae sat down and looked down at her.
“Excitingly overexcited.”
Mumbling discontentedly while looking at Jane’s flattened face, he continued.
The man in the black robe standing beside her then spoke.
“She’ll be much more useful than Safaro(485). Superior physical abilities as well.”
In response to his words, Jitae spoke, resting his chin on his hand.
“You have one task. Imprint the Dream Gate on that human woman’s body.”
“Yes. Understood.”
He replied without questioning or probing further.
Jitae, claiming that there should be no failure twice, pledged his past life before meeting her as collateral.
Jane buried her head to the point of her forehead touching the floor.
“Take her away.”
When Jitae gestured, the man in the black robe spoke to her.
“Follow me.”
Though she wondered where she was being dragged again, for now, Jane wanted to disappear from Iso’s sight as quickly as possible.
Jane quickly followed behind the man.
The narrow, long corridor with a red carpet was tall and dark.
At first glance, I thought it might be one of the high-rise buildings in the middle of Seoul, but I couldn’t accurately determine where this place was.
Perhaps it was Moon Enterprises’ headquarters; I could only speculate.
The man in the robe, still covering his face, pressed the elevator button in silence.
Jane, who had been looking around with her eyes, managed to speak with difficulty.
“Are you planning to use me as a medium?”
The man, still covering his face with the robe, fixed his gaze forward and answered.
“Yes. When you engrave the Dream Gate on Seogang’s body, the king will consume the nightmares you bring.”
“…”
“If necessary, he will enter the dream directly through you.”
In other words, without revealing his identity, he meant that he would be used as a medium to consume Seogang’s nightmares.
“Why me?”
She cautiously asked again.
“With your skills, you could have engraved it yourself earlier.”
“Is it good to cause trouble?”
“Well, that’s true, but…”
“If you were better at combat than me, you would have willingly used me as a medium.”
The answer was simple.
The role given depended on one’s abilities.
There were two ways for a Mongma to absorb human nightmares.
One was to directly absorb the fears and nightmares that had melted into the air around humans through their breath, and the other was to infiltrate by engraving the Dream Gate on the human’s body.
The latter required the Mongma to be in a state of sleep to infiltrate the human’s dream.
So, if he wanted to infiltrate Kang’s dream, it meant that he needed to enter a state of sleep himself.
Literally, it was just playing the role of a door.
Through him, the king would infiltrate Seogang’s dream.
And while he consumed nightmares, the man would play the role of a guard.
The requirement was undoubtedly excellent combat abilities.
No one should disturb the king’s meal.
“I didn’t know No Jitae was the king even in my dreams.”
Jane, who was watching for reactions, threw a subtle question.
She had tried it to see if she could know this man’s identity as well.
“Are you also someone living in the human world? No Jitae’s associate?”
“…”
“The reason you cover your face is probably because there are many people who might recognize you, right? But that means you’re someone known to everyone, doesn’t it?”
The man still didn’t respond, and not long after, the elevator arrived.
Only then did he turn half his head and chin up.
“Get in.”
That was all the man said.
Jane gave up and obediently boarded the elevator.
They faced each other.
“Your face speaks for itself.”
The man looking at her face said.
It was absurd.
“You made it like this.”
“So you should have come nicely. Don’t show any signs of being injured and go back. Since your face is known, it’s not good to attract attention for no reason.”
He took off the robe and threw it to Jane.
“Ugh!”
Caught off guard, she caught the robe thrown towards her face, and soon, between the closing doors, she saw his face revealed.
“You…!”
Jane’s eyes widened.
It was because she already knew who he was.
A face so innocent and beautiful, contrary to the belief that he wielded violence mercilessly.
“Farewell.”
The man, who bid farewell with a flower-like smile, revealed his identity,
“We’ll meet again soon.”
It was Yang Shin-hwi.
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.
