And dealing with them was still the responsibility of the heavenly beings.
The hazy sun quickly rose after yesterday’s rain and peeked out from the clouds.
“Hmm. Feels strange.”
Until yesterday, it felt like freely hunting Mongmas after a long time, but today, it felt like becoming a sentinel protecting the castle.
He raised one arm and rested his chin, gazing at the balcony.
The bedroom wasn’t clearly visible, but coincidentally or not, at a fantastic timing, San, wearing only pants, walked out, and their eyes met.
Was it just the strange atmosphere that he seemed to be smiling as he looked at her?
San, who had been looking at the puzzled Haemi for a while, soon closed the balcony door and, after entering, drew the curtain.
It was predicted in Heaven that their relationship would become somewhat closer.
However, seeing the guy’s behavior that goes beyond getting closer, as if he’s in love, I couldn’t help feeling annoyed.
It’s irritating enough to become a sentinel, and to top it off, I have to protect a guy like him.
The last expression I saw on San’s face seemed to say, “I’ll roll around freely, so you guard the house diligently,” which irritated me even more.
“Why are you like this, Commander?”
A subordinate standing by asked him, glaring at him from below.
Haemi barely lifted her gaze, letting out a deep sigh.
“It’s nothing. Concentrate on the front.”
“Yes.”
He, who had tilted his head slightly, soon focused on the front.
To prepare for any contingencies, more troops were deployed than yesterday.
The heavenly beings of the Wu country, along with the heavenly beings of the Seol country, who had become part of the punitive force, had joined forces.
They were a punitive force for battle during wartime, composed of owners of excellent combat skills, always standing shoulder to shoulder with the Wu country’s elite guards.
“There are more than I thought.”
Hyungseol, the deputy leader of the Seol country, who appeared in place of the absent leader, spoke to Haemi.
To this, he replied with a snort, “Well, they’re just small fries.”
“…”
“Feels the same, but let’s play a big round.”
Drawing out her sickle, Haemi muttered sarcastically.
With his words as a start, the elite guards of the Wu country and the punitive force of the Seol country began to release their weapons and form a large formation to the north, south, east, and west.
Meanwhile, inside, San was actively absorbing Kang’s dreams.
Because the quality of the dream was so outstanding, the dormant power of his flesh leaped from within like a raging beast.
It was really embarrassing to suppress it when the body was weak like now.
As they kissed and began to communicate, the amount of nightmares overflowed dramatically, and he could absorb nightmares even faster.
He felt her heartbeat vividly from the fingertips that gripped her slender neck and chin at the same time.
Suppressing the raging desire, San swallowed Kang’s dreams and tasted fear like a beast that had struggled with thirst and hunger for a long time.
It felt like consuming her soul.
Thunk!
He barely separated from Kang and fell straight under the bed.
San, who slowly got up, breathed heavily, his chest rising and falling vigorously.
After feeling a boiling power from within his body, he sat at the edge of the bed after stabilizing somewhat and looked down with a languid tilt of his head.
It was a delightful but tormenting experience.
“Haah…”
Exhaling a heavy breath, San lowered his head again to look at Kang.
He ran his tongue over her wet lips, lowered his waist to kiss her forehead, and licked the tears gathered in her eye sockets.
Then, he quickly used his thumb to stroke Kang’s forehead and erase the memories of the nightmare.
“You did well.”
Pleased with the satisfying meal, he greeted her affectionately.
When she woke up from sleep.
San had finished preparing to leave.
“…Is it midnight?”
“Yeah.”
As he filled his cuffs with links, he approached, sat next to Kang, and swept her hair away.
Then, he gave his final instructions.
“Since the numbers are becoming visible, be careful not to be too surprised. Monmas with weak self-control may react to that and rush at you like moths to a flame.”
“I understand.”
“The lower the number, the stronger the monma, so keep that in mind.”
He added that their true names and powers were hidden in those numbers.
“Don’t worry. I won’t get hurt while you’re away.”
Kang comforted San like that, and she was ready to see him off.
The night that seemed unlikely to come arrived, and the sky, stained black, had a round full moon rising without a single cloud.
To guide San, Haemi came, accompanied by Seolseong.
Seeing Haemi for the first time, Kang seemed somewhat shocked by his appearance. She couldn’t even greet him properly and just exchanged a late glance.
However, without responding to her, Haemi nagged San, and Kang prepared to say goodbye to him.
At that moment, the clock’s second hand ticked away steadily.
Finally, the moment of midnight arrived.
Seolseong extended both arms and cast a barrier.
In the pitch-black emptiness, the door to the heavenly realm opened, and as San and Haemi stepped forward, the door closed.
And at that moment.
In the deep mountains, from the narrow crevice that had been shrinking almost to extinction, Lomi bounced out like a rebound.
Thump, thump, thump!
“I’m alive!”
Lomi, who heard her own howling, jumped around in joy.
“Wow! I did it! I did it! I did it!”
Aooo!
Hearing Lomi’s howling, an old man nearby who had been dozing off suddenly popped out.
“Oh, you! You really came back! You’re back!”
“Grandpa!”
Overjoyed, she rushed to him and threw herself at the old man.
“Eek!”
Unable to withstand her weight and speed, he embraced Lomi and rolled around.
“Ouch! My back! My back!”
“Oops! Grandpa! Are you okay?!”
“Hey, you…! Darn it…!”
Having endured being hit in the knees and back, the old man finally regained his senses and held Lomi’s fluffy cheeks in his rough thumb.
“Let me see! Are you hurt anywhere…!”
Afraid to ask directly, he discovered a distinct scar on Lomi’s left eye.
A wound that seemed to have been carved with a sharp blade, starting from the eyebrows, passing through the eyelids, and extending below the eye.
“Oh, you… It’s really a relief that you’re back! It’s a relief!”
The old man heaved a deep sigh, patting Lomi’s eye with his calloused thumb.
The old man sighed as if feeling sorry, and with a firm, calloused thumb, he gently stroked Lomi’s eye area.
In response, she grinned and replied, “After going through hellish training, I deserve these medals! Don’t I look cool? You can call me Ssangkal now, Grandpa.”
“Hmph. A girl calling herself Ssangkal. Nonsense.”
The old man, not resentful, teased Lomi with affectionate scolding.
The emotional reunion was short-lived.
Welcoming Lomi’s safe return, he soon burst into laughter, revealing yellowed teeth.
“Well then.”
“…?”
“Shall we settle the remaining balance?”
Having quit drinking, he was experiencing withdrawal symptoms, trembling uncontrollably. The old man eagerly extended his hand, anticipating something he had longed for.
“Quick, bring out the soju.”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
