#fantasy manhwa

[nanaosaki3940]

It wasn't that long since I started reading Korean manhwa/webtoons besides Japanese manga, and recently I got into the historical-fantasy genre webtoons/manhwa where out of all of them, The Fantasie of a Stepmother (A Stepmother's Märchen) is my No. 1 fav in the list. I just love the story and the characters and more so than that, I'm in love with the main male lead of the story, Norra Von Nurnberger.

(The greenest of the green flags and I'm a simp for him now!!!)

Norra Von Nurnberger

He's so fucking beautiful OMG!!! 😭🤧💖💘🥰😘

Has anyone in the fandom of stories of transmigration and time travel ever read The three body problem trilogy, by Cixin Liu, or just until the second book? Because let me tell you, the book presents something called the Wallfacers, individuals who have to engineer a plan to save humanity from an inevitable alien invasion but they can’t tell anyone the specifics in risk of being found out by alien technology, and so a barrier of communication forms between these Wallfacers and the rest of the population where basically no one can ascertain if what the Wallfacers tell them is true or part of the strategy, etc. So there’s this fragment:

And I was reminded of how transmigrators and regressors operate in their stories, even when they don’t seem to want to, and how people watch them in awe or admire them based on the results of absurd or unconventional plans.

I just wanted to share this weird coincidence I found in a SF book.

ROXANA (Chapter 79)

*E/N: The forward slashes in Scene Two “ / … / ” denote a flashback (either Roxana thinking about a previous occurrence, or a direct excerpt from an earlier chapter).

–––

After a while, Cassis quietly shut the curtains and left the room.

“Brother!”

Sylvia appeared to have been waiting for him. “Has she woken up? Can I go in to see her?” Her eyes were shining and curious- she had been desperate to meet Roxana since Cassis told her about his stay at House Agriche three years ago.

“In a while. She’s still sleeping.”

Sylvia looked disappointed, but soon smiled and stepped forward. “Then I’ll go prepare some flowers for when she awakens. It would be a nice welcome present!”

Cassis regarded his sister with warmth, and hoped that in time, Roxana would be able to smile with that much brightness.

* * *

“Sigh…” Roxana let out a breath. The warm water both relaxed and invigorated her body, releasing all the exhaustion she had accumulated from sleeping for so long.

It was the first time she had rested so much, and she wondered if it had made up for all those years of missing sleep.

Roxana looked around- the bathroom was as spacious and tidy as the bedroom she was in, and subtle, floral scent of Sylvia’s flowers had permeated the entire space. Roxana remembered the face that Sylvia had made when they’d met just a while ago- those innocent eyes, that wide smile.

/

‘Flowers seem to brighten my mood,’ Sylvia had said. She had been so friendly, in fact, that Roxana felt as though they had been friends for a long time.

‘I wanted to pick the prettiest flower in the garden, but their beauty seems to have faded in the face of yours!’ She laughed, bright and cute, and Roxana was rendered speechless.

Suddenly, Sylvia stopped. ‘Oh! I’m sorry!’ She sounded embarrassed. ‘I was in such a hurry that I forgot to introduce myself. But I was at the reunion meeting this time-!’

‘Sylvia.’ The name had slipped out of Roxana’s mouth.

Sylvia’s smile grew brighter.

/

In the original novel, Sylvia was not a girl who harboured such unspoilt joy and youthfulness- or at least not at this point in the novel. After all, it was a tragic novel, and as it progressed, her purity and brightness depleted dramatically- from the time she heard the news of Cassis’ death, up until the time she executed her revenge.

However, seeing Sylvia’s lively person made Roxana feel… strange. It felt similar to watching a more mature Cassis after three years of no contact. Still, it brought her slight relief.

She thought about Sylvia age- the same as Jeremy’s- before sinking her entire body into the water to stop her thoughts from drifting.

The sun had already set by the time Roxana finished bathing. She covered herself in a robe and sat on the sofa, falling asleep almost immediately.

Soon after, the feeling of someone moving her body woke her up. “What are you doing?” She said in unconscious defence.

“You should rest on the bed,” Cassis said as his face entered Roxana’s vision. How long have I been sleeping?

“Are we at House Pedelian?”

“Yes.”

* * *

Eventually, the two ended up having late dinner as Cassis requested. However, Roxana still didn’t have an appetite, so she opened her mouth haphazardly at intervals and fiddled with the spoon in her hand.

“Your sister seemed happy to see me.”

“I’m not surprised.” Roxana couldn’t glean anything from Cassis’ lukewarm response, but she could see his eyes soften.

She had been surprised by how welcoming Sylvia was, and began wondering about what Cassis had told her about Roxana. Should I thank Cassis for speaking well of me?

But it didn’t matter, anyway- she was more concerned with where she was currently. I’ve just followed Cassis to House Pedelian for now, but I don’t think it’s going to be my residence for long.

“It’s quiet here. Is there no one living in this house?”

“It’s an annex for guest accommodation. We don’t really use it.”

There were probably two reasons for Roxana’s placement in the annex. Firstly, because she held a substantial and borderline uncontrollable amount of poison within her, and secondly, because she was an Agriche.

Of course, while Cassis brought her back to house Pedelian without hesitation, there was obviously a need for him to be careful about his behaviour now.

With that thought, Roxana glanced over at Cassis. In turn, he hardened his eyes.

(Also, I fucking hate the female lead. Like bitch, this fine-ass specimen is right in front of you, yet you're going on dates and hooking up with that blondie bastard. Then again, you go and kiss the male lead twice, like what?!?! Make a decision already, dammit, and don't play with his feelings!!)

ROXANA (Chapter 21)

*TW: Self-harm

­­­–––

“Are you going to visit the toy now, Miss Roxana?

“No, I’m going to stop by the poison butterfly hatchery first.”

Three days had passed since that day, and my daily routine had become quite predictable. I visited Cassis three times a day to deliver is meals- which also allowed him to gauge the passing of time- and I made sure to engage a physician anytime I was too busy to take care of his wounds.

I had many other tasks to complete besides visiting Cassis, one of which was caring for the poison butterflies. The hatchery was humid and warm, with the air inside flowing softly but heavily.

The space was originally a greenhouse to cultivate poisonous plants, but after obtaining a poison butterfly egg, it was converted into a hatchery. Still, it was covered in poisonous plants, and no ordinary person would be able to withstand being in this room for more than ten seconds without fainting. However, because of my poison tolerance, the poisonous air had little to no effect on me.

I walked deeper into the greenhouse, and after a while, a black egg wrapped in a thorn vine appeared in my sight. The poison butterfly’s egg was now almost the size of two fists.

I stood in front of it, pulling out a dagger from my clothes. I rolled up my sleeves and cut my skin with the blade. Blood dripped over the egg, which soon turned dark red.

“Eat well. And if you aren’t already, grow faster.”

At first, I had three eggs, but because the hatching success rate of poison butterflies is only around thirty percent, I only had the one egg left.

The poison butterflies were monstrous creatures, and were extremely difficult to find, not to mention tame. So in order for me to be imprinted as their master, they had to consume my blood regularly like this before hatching.

Another nutrient the butterflies consume is poison, as the name suggests, which makes this poison-filled room a good place for breeding them. The same was true for my blood, which has been infused with poison since childhood.

Originally, the butterfly egg should have been discovered by one of the male leads- the “White Beast.” He had the ability to deal with monsters, and he succeeded in locating and breeding the poisonous butterflies. Thankfully, I had remembered this scene in the novel, and told Emily the precise location so that she could bring the eggs to me.

Breeding and taming monsters was a rare ability to have. Obviously, I wasn’t the best at it, but it was good enough that I was being imprinted as the butterflies’ master. If I succeeded in hatching them, I had more means of protection; if I failed, I had nothing to lose.

After consuming my blood, the egg now seemed to be covered in a thin film. I reached my hand out to stroke the surface, and as if it were alive, a warmth immediately penetrated the tip of my fingers making contact with it.

Somehow, I had the feeling that the day of their hatching wasn’t far away.

* * *

After leaving the hatchery, I went to visit Cassis.

“Here’s your lunch.” Today, he was given chicken stew, wholegrain bread, and fruit. I still avoided providing him food that required the use of forks and knives, so the menu was slightly limited.

“It must be troublesome for you to have to come here all the time.” Cassis was still aloof, but seemed less uncomfortable with me than he was previously- he was more gentle and cooperative than I thought he’d be.

I’m sure I’ll be able to bring him food with forks and knives soon.

As per usual, he proceeded without saying anything.

After placing the tray on the bed and stepping back, I felt something rise in my throat. Oh. I felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

Suddenly, dark red blood stained the palm of my hand clasped over my mouth. I suppose I’m reacting badly to the poison Emily brought me yesterday. I calmly wiped my lips with my sleeves.

Then I heard a sound in front of me. Looking up, I saw Cassis staring at me. His face was hardened and surprised- his widened eyes were a little unfamiliar to me. He lifted the tray from the bed and placed it beside him.

“You…” He spoke and faltered, as if unsure what to say. “… That blood…”

“Oh, I’m sorry,” I apologized. It must have been strange for Cassis. “I brought you food, and now I’m ruining your appetite with the sight of blood.” I hope he doesn’t think it’s dirty.

Cassis’ facial expression changed with my reaction. He looked at me, half suspicious, half confused. “No… Didn’t you just vomit blood?”

“Yes, but… you don’t need to worry about it. It’s not a big deal.” I said, covering my lips with the back of my sleeves. There was no mirror here, so I couldn’t wipe the blood from my mouth and chin completely.

But my sleeves were already stained with blood, and Cassis’ eyes seemed nailed to the patches of red on my clothes.

“Vomiting blood isn’t considered a big deal?” Cassis’ face seemed harder than before. “Something like that…”

I thought a little about how to answer, before finally saying, “It’s fine; it’s happened a lot in the past.” Why would I need to explain why I’d vomited blood? On the contrary, it was the way of the Agriche to develop a tolerance to poison by consuming it from an early age.

Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to show such a scene here, but it wasn’t really a big deal in the eyes of the Agriche.

“So it turns out that last time…” Cassis drifted off.

Huh? Last time? When have I ever vomited blood in front of Cassis? I didn’t have any recollection of that happening, but Cassis didn’t elaborate.

But stranger than that… “Are you worried about me?” I looked at Cassis, and he flinched as if I’d just insulted him.

“Why would I be worried?” A chilly look was cast on his face. “Isn’t it natural to be surprised that someone’s vomiting blood in front of you?”

He may have denied it, but he also gave me an opportunity to dig deeper into this weakness of his. “Oh, I see… It’s a familiar sight to me, so I never thought that anyone else would be surprised.”

Looking at him, I realized that he was the type of person to maintain a strong appearance in front of the strong, and an air of vulnerability in front of the weak. If so, it would be alright- no, better- for me to show more vulnerability in front of him.

“But I thought you would hate me… It’s caring of you to worry about me like this. Thank you.” I smiled faintly, deliberately using a cool but bitter tone.

Cassis was rendered speechless, and I thought that it would be best to leave it at that.

“I’ll take my leave, then.” It would be better for him to eat in peace. “I’m sorry that I surprised you,” I told Cassis again, turning around.

Cassis stiffly shut his mouth, and I could still feel his gaze digging into me as I walked towards and out the door.
