A duke burdened with a curse-like trust, such was his third wife. The viscount pushed Elia into that position and pocketed a hefty dowry.

Unbeknownst to him, the woman he saved was not just any civilian but a succubus.

When Valen regained consciousness, he found himself not on the bloody battlefield but in a wedding hall within the demon realm.

“I am Argentine. And you are?”

“Do you think I’ll tell my name to a filthy demon like you?”

Weary from the prolonged wars, the demons proposed a political marriage to him. The absurd condition? It would last until Argentine, whom Valen saved, became pregnant with his child.

The idea of a child with demon blood repulsed him to the core. But pushed to his limits, Valen reluctantly agreed to their proposal.

“Let’s cease these charades and focus on what needs to be done. It’ll be better for both of us,” he growled.

“I want to give you time to accept…”

“Should I give not only my body but also my mind? Will that strengthen my ‘essence’?”

Valen was disgusted by the demons’ hypocrisy. He had intended to leave the demon realm as soon as the succubus bore a child.

“Whether you call for me or come to me, it’s up to you,” he said.

“…”

“I’ll do my da!mned best to give you my seed.”

Valen, the human warrior who despises demons, and Argentine, the demon king who sought peace through a child.

Can the demon realm truly find peace? <<less

Initially, when other concubines showcased their talents in music and dance, Shen Chuliu declared she was not an entertainer. When they composed poems and created art, she stated she had no intention of taking the imperial examination. When others mocked her lack of favor, she merely smiled, reminding them of her noble origins.

The emperor was left with no choice; he couldn’t ignore the concubines who failed to please him, especially when their maternal families held significant power. Shen Chuliu was indifferent to it all, allowing her relatives to act as they pleased. Upon entering the palace, she began to embrace a carefree attitude.

The liberation felt good initially, and it continued to feel good. After all, comfort is paramount in life. If things become too oppressive, even the emperor is powerless! <<less

For two years, I've been diligently working as an adventurer while hiding the fact that I'm the fourth prince. It seems I've accidentally made advances on a female adventurer whom I've been adventuring with for a long time (cue awkward comedy).

However, before the three years was up, General Huo’s legs actually healed on their own.

Not only did he slaughter the useless ruler and unified the country, but he also forcefully blocked him in the room and insisted on fulfilling his duty as "concubine."
