Chapter 16 - It Is Only Natural to Feel Possessive Over What One Loves Lu Yunwan wanted to know why the original host had developed a psychological barrier toward piloting mecha. After returning to the residence, he began searching through the study. At first, Lu Yunwan did not hold much hope and was only trying his luck. Unexpectedly, he truly discovered something of value. In the interstellar era, paper had long since faded into history. Yet the tradition-minded Empire still retained the…- 87.9 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 15 - He Wanted Nothing More Than to Crush Lu Yunwan in His Arms If he was going to put on an act, then he would see it through to the end. Lu Yunwan did not return to the Regent’s residence. Instead, he directed the mecha to head toward the other end of Planet Cangrui. The original host’s family was buried here. Unexpected yet somehow fitting, the grave of the original host’s family was arranged very simply. There was only a small stone stele and a mound overgrown with…

- Chapter 14 - “Having a Desire for Control Is a Good Thing.” After Lu Yunwan’s back disappeared around the corner, Pei Zhaoan slammed his wineglass against the wall with a bang. The crimson liquid splashed across the white wall like sprayed blood. Pei Zhaoan did not spare the wall another glance. He took out a white silk handkerchief, wiped the liquid from his hands, then turned and opened a hidden door. A young human dressed in a black silk night robe stood up from beside the…

- Chapter 13: Lu Yunwan and the Sensation of Near Death The distance between the two of them was less than the span of a palm. The smell of blood in the air overwhelmed the faint sandalwood fragrance on Lu Yunwan’s body. Chu Xuanzhou inexplicably felt that, compared to the elegant scent of sandalwood, the cloying sweetness of blood suited the Regent of the Empire far better. At that moment, a bead of blood fell from the tips of silvery white hair, striking Lu Yunwan’s collarbone before…

- Chapter 12 - Cold Lips Brushed Against Lu Yunwan’s Chin “Let go of me!” Lu Yunwan instinctively tried to pry open Chu Xuanzhou’s fingers, but a merman’s strength was obviously not something a “fragile human” could contend with. Chu Xuanzhou barely used any effort. With his other hand, he seized both of Lu Yunwan’s wrists and pinned him firmly to the ground. Then he pressed his leg against Lu Yunwan’s knee, completely cutting off the human’s struggle. The Regent who had…

- Chapter 11 - Gripped by the Neck and Pressed into a Pool of Blood by Chu Xuanzhou After saying that, Lu Yunwan lightly patted Chu Xuanzhou on the shoulder and slowly left the grand hall, only reappearing half an hour later. Beneath the wave-shaped dome hung tens of thousands of crystal lamps, like stars that had fallen to the seabed. The Regent removed his mask and stood at the very center of the banquet hall, preparing to deliver a speech on behalf of the Empire to the entire…

- Chapter 10 - These Things Are Not Shameful Lu Yunwan’s voice curled around Chu Xuanzhou’s ear like spider silk. “Whether in the jungle or the stars, a skilled hunter is always adept at disguise.” Hunter. Disguise. The Regent’s tone was unbelievably sincere, yet the man’s disgraceful past never stopped reminding Chu Xuanzhou that Lu Yunwan’s words could not be trusted. If the interstellar realm were a jungle, Lu Yunwan would undoubtedly be the finest hunter. So was his…

“It won’t be easy…” Even as he trailed off, Aeryl’s mind was racing. A way to win Lady Merel over came to him. The role of Grand Duchess—he’d get used to it with time, and he was confident he could learn quickly. Time was something that could be squeezed out if needed. ‘Though I’ll have to be careful about infectious diseases…’ If he followed what Hiello had said, it might actually work more in his favor. He already had so much he wanted to learn and do that he didn’t even…- 279.4 K • Completed
- After that, Aeryl remained in the infirmary, looking through documents, but the words barely registered. He had accepted becoming the Grand Duchess as a natural outcome—because he loved Hiello. But that didn’t mean he had ever thought about giving up being a doctor. He had worked hard to study medicine and was deeply attached to it. He still dreamed of advancing medical science and contributing to the world through it. ‘After everything I went through to learn…’ But even as he thought…

- Aeryl left the East Wing burning with determination to make the upcoming party the best it could be and headed straight to the infirmary. Inside, Raeler was holding down the fort. “Sorry for making you handle everything alone.” “It’s no problem. I’ve been learning a lot.” Raeler had shown an interest in medicine, but he had ultimately decided he wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps and become an inventor. Life wouldn’t be easy for him as an omega, but Aeryl had taught him…
