The Male Lead isn't Following the Script!
Adeline didn't expect she would transmigrate into the trashy novel she read years ago. The plot was so cliched that she couldn't bring herself to finish it. Years later, she found that very book on her bed, the page was open to the villainess' execution and before she knew it she found herself in the very novel she hated. The evil villainess who couldn't stand her two childhood friends become completely enamoured by the female lead, she decided to take care of the matter herself and thus became the public enemy. She now became the villainess of the story! "I do not accept this!" Adeline yelled at the top of her lungs. "I will change the plot." The Crown Prince she rejected won't leave her alone. The cold Northern Duke clung to her and wouldn't let go. The Arch Mage wants to abandon his duties and serve as her personal knight, and the Head Priest is obsessed with her! The Male leads she wished to avoid won't leave her alone! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Obsessive male lead- check. Funny but strong female lead- check. Amazing family- check. Annoying Goddess- also check.
Begin For War
The captain of the army stationed at the Holy Temple crossed his arms, his gaze steady and unimpressed as he looked at Edward. "And why, exactly, should we follow you?"
He didn't bother hiding the mockery in his voice. Why exactly would he follow a child? So what if this boy was someone held in high regard by the Head Priest?
He met the captain's gaze with calm eyes, his confidence unwavering. Edward knew exactly what he was doing. He had anticipated the captain's scepticism and was prepared for this moment.
"Think carefully about the plague that's spreading in the capital," Edward said, his voice soft but laced with venom. "Surely, you've heard of it by now." It was a threat, straightforward and direct.
The captain raised an eyebrow, and Edward could see the flicker of unease in his eyes. Everyone in the capital knew about the illness creeping through the city.
