One morning, I woke up in a strange world.
āOf all places to end up through dimensional travel⦠why did it have to be a wuxia world?ā
All I knew about this place was that martial artists here shout out their cringeworthy nicknames before performing flashy moves. Struggling to survive in this unfamiliar and harsh world, I happened to stumble upon a mysterious gem.
āHe said he couldnāt promise me anything. Thatās why he never told me his name or title. All he did was give me this pearl and ask me to remember our bond.ā
Thinking it was a good chance to make money, I fabricated a touching story around the gem and sold it for a hefty price.
Exactly a week into enjoying my new life with a pile of cash, someone came looking for me.
āI hear you pawned this Night-Luminescent Pearl.ā
āY-yes?ā
āYou claimed it was a token from your beloved, didnāt you?ā
āWho⦠who are you?ā
āThis pearl is the heirloom of our noble house. It belonged to our eldest son who disappeared five years ago.ā
āā¦!ā
āYouāll need to come with me.ā
Damn it. Iām screwed.
Turns out the heir wasnāt dead after all. Worse, he found out I liedāand now heās blackmailing me.
āYou will help me uncover the one who orchestrated my attempted mu*der.ā
āI-I canāt do that!ā
āYou have only two options: die here and take your secrets with you, or cooperate.ā
With no choice, I was forced to pose as his fiancĆ©e⦠but I canāt figure out whatās going on in his head.
āWhy are you being so nice to me?ā
āYouāre quite the handful. When I act cold, you cry and say Iām too harsh. When Iām kind for once, you bombard me with suspicious questions.ā
No⦠Itās just that youāre making my heart flutter.
Get it together, Gaenari. Your only goal is to finish this fake fiancƩe act, collect the fat reward, and live a carefree life. Nothing more!
