——It was like a long dream.

Although I don’t know why, I seem to have the opportunity to experience life again.

Born and raised in an ordinary but happy family, and then lost my family and everything in an instant.

Fortunately, I was rescued and raised by a kind man, but I lost the opportunity to repay him forever.

I can only wander around alone without anyone’s recognition, relying on meaningless work and killing against my heart to barely make a living...

[Don’t give up, live. 】

However, every time I feel desperate, there will always be a reassuring voice ringing in my ears.

"...Who are you?"

Although I don’t know who that person is, that voice always makes my heart feel warm - even if I am already covered in wounds, I still don’t give up the hope of living.

And I gradually realized... the meaning of my survival is to see that person.

"... Can I see you?"

This question does not need to be answered, because I already have a strong premonition in my heart - when this new life reaches the critical divergence point, my wish will definitely come true.

Finally, when I swung the sword of heaven with all my strength, this dreamlike life turned into a bubble that was about to dissipate.

Since the dream is over, it is time to return to reality.

...

"Master...?"

"Yes... yes, I am your master... good boy, you finally..."

Seeing that Jiang Yue really cried this time, Aarons quietly stepped aside.

The sage whose disciples had never had a good end finally broke the curse at this time.

And Aarons could also let go of the heavy sin and relax his mind a little.

- But has Mo Qianyun really recovered to his original state now?

"Well, I...seemed to have had a very long dream..."

"Yes, you have been sleeping for a long time."

Kneeling beside the bed, Jiang Yue held Mo Qianyun's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that she would leave again. And Mo Qianyun, who had not yet fully adapted to his body, also responded to her with a faint smile.

"Master, I seem to have...hurt you before."

"It's okay, that kind of minor injury is not a problem."

Even if the arm was cut off, it's not a problem...Aarons didn't know how to evaluate Jiang Yue's outrageous concept.

However, watching the close interaction between the master and the apprentice, Aarons suddenly felt that he was a little redundant now.

So after a little hesitation, he quietly retreated to the door-but before he opened the door, Mo Qianyun lying on the bed suddenly discovered his existence.

"...Who are you?"

"Ah? Don't you recognize me? Oh, it seems that there is something wrong with my memory at that time..."

Although Aarons thought of this possibility in an instant, Jiang Yue was surprised to find that the expression on Mo Qianyun's face at this time was not the doubt of seeing a stranger——

"Yes, sorry... I just didn't see it clearly for a moment... You, you are..."

...The blush on that beautiful face was definitely not caused by emotional excitement.

"Forget it, forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't remember."

"Marquis, please go out first... I have something to ask Qianyun."

"No problem, that's what I planned. Then I'll go back to the office first, and I have to tell other people about this."

After watching Aarons leave the ward with an indifferent expression on his face because he put down his burden, Jiang Yue sighed deeply.

"Qianyun, are you——"

"So that's it, Miss Qianyun has woken up."

"She doesn't seem to remember who I am. When she saw me, she didn't call my name for a long time."

After returning to the office, Aarons immediately called Xia Ye back. It happened that Keliya also came here with Karin and Zhuying, so Aarons told them the news.

"Don't remember? Master, didn't you misunderstand something?"

"Didn't you say last time that I changed her memory? Now there should be a problem, right?"

Looking at Aarons's solemn words that seemed to be very reasonable, Xia Ye, who had originally had a dull face, couldn't help but change to a distressed expression.

And Her Royal Highness the Princess and the two non-human women were already laughing at this time-but Aarons had no idea what they were laughing at.

"If you think so, then you have to..."

Before Xia Ye could comment on Aarons's idea, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open from the outside - and to everyone's surprise, the person who came wasIt was Mo Qianyun, whom they were just discussing.

Although she was supported by Jiangyue to walk here, she was able to get out of bed and walk in such a short time, which only showed that there was nothing wrong with her body.

Maybe in a few days, she will be able to fully recover to her original state.

"Mr. Marquis... Mo Qianyun greets you."

However, what was even more surprising was that this beautiful black-haired woman knelt down in front of Aarons as soon as she entered the room.

At this time, Jiangyue secretly winked at Xia Ye and Keliya.

"Hey! Don't do this?! Your body hasn't recovered yet, Teacher Jiangyue, let her get up quickly-"

"... I knew you were a noble person, but I raised my sword against you three times... I know that my crime is unforgivable, please give me a fair and strict punishment!"

After hearing this unexpected request, Aarons couldn't help but cover his face with his hands.

This is bad... This girl not only remembers what happened before, but also recovers her overly upright spirit...

Punish? How to punish? According to the imperial law, attacking a noble is a crime punishable by beheading!

"Well, I'm actually fine, so how about..."

"No! The mistakes I made must be punished!"

"Hey, that's right. If the husband cannot punish the person who made the mistake fairly, it will make the subordinates lose trust."

What, Princess, why are you helping at this time?

Realizing that something seemed wrong, Aarons immediately looked at the people around him, but found that everyone's expressions were very strange at this time-it was as if they were waiting to see some joke.

Is this a test from the organization?

"Marquis, this is Qianyun's own choice, please don't mix personal feelings... No matter what the result is, we will accept it."

After watching Jiangyue really take out a dagger from behind and hand it to him very seriously, Aarons finally understood what they meant.

No matter what he thought, Mo Qianyun was now a mercenary who "attempted to assassinate the Marquis unsuccessfully". Even if he rescued her from her mental bondage, there was no guarantee that she would really give up the mission.

- So he had to do something to prove that she was no longer a threat.

"Okay, then listen carefully."

After taking the dagger from Jiang Yue, Aarons slowly walked behind Mo Qianyun. Then, under the gaze of everyone, he put the dagger in his hand on the other's neck.

"Although I do have the intention to love talents, I cannot confirm whether you still have the intention to kill. So I will judge you according to the laws of the empire - attacking the imperial nobles without reason shall be executed according to the law."

After saying this in a serious and indifferent tone, Aarons reached out and lifted Mo Qianyun's long hair.

Although the touch of the soft waist-length black hair was like satin, which made people reluctant to let go, Aarons' eyes were always fixed on the other's white neck.

Then, he swung the dagger in his hand vigorously-

"That's what I said, but I plan to follow the rules of my side. The hair and skin of the body are given by parents, so today I will cut off my hair instead of your head... In this way, it can be regarded as cutting off your head."

With Aarons's action, the sharp dagger finally completely cut off the long hair like ink.

When Aarons thought he had completed this set of performances in a chic manner, and even threw the dagger aside, he suddenly found that the people around him all showed even more strange expressions.

Wait? Did I do it wrong?

"You actually came up with this... You are worthy of being my husband..."

"Master, you seem to have misunderstood..."

Looking at the somewhat awkward smiles on Keliya and Xia Ye's faces, Aarons immediately turned around and looked at Jiangyue beside him-but at this time, the sage was also rubbing his forehead with his hands, which seemed a bit unexpected.

"Marquis... Actually, you only needed to chop Qianyun a few times just now. You don't have fighting spirit, so you can't hurt her even if you use all your strength."

"... What? Did you mean this at the beginning?"

"Because this child said that she felt a little guilty, so I brought her here to go through the formalities. But you actually did this..."

Looking at the bunch of long hair that was still in his hand, Aarons' face quickly became stiff.

And Mo Qianyun, who had been lowering his head from beginning to end, was already flushed at this time, as if blood could drip out.

"Master, you really are... Hey, Miss Qianyun, please get up. Let's go to the next door to talk about some business first, and let our Marquis have time to reflect on it."

... What did I do just now?What?
