Meridian can't possibly say that kissing doesn't mean anything, right?
For Meridian, he remains a novel character. Just like you guys kissed paper—at least for Meridian—because it wants to be made anyway, they're just imaginary figures.
"I'm jealous. Is it possible that Miss really did it with someone else? What Herdian? I think Duke Elgard must have lost one of his best sons."
"Stop being excessive. You're laughable." Meridian is cruel. "Just do it."
"You ruled an emperor?"
"I took a promise from my beloved fiancee who said I could act like it. Quick. Do it."
Andaru pouty.
But he seems to be just kidding.
Immediately showed his eyes again to analyze the magic within the Meridians. "What should I see?"
"Everything. Tell me whatever it is."
Even if he was cliche, Andaru was sharper than Meridian had expected. Rather than him specifically asking her to look at the watchdog magic, it was better for her to mention the whole thing.
"Hmmm, your mana overflow is still the same. They're not aggressive, like I said. But they seem a little scared. Which pressure in this cave is bothering them."
It was definitely not a meridian.
The meridians are confident because this body belongs to the main character and he is with the main male character as well.
The laws of the novel will always be the same. After all, Andaru's magic that is as impressive as Meridians alone is enough to tremble other countries, let alone Meridian magic combined.
Mastering the world might as well.
"Then, there's a trace of magic in your body." Andaru touched his cheek. In looking at the eyes of the Meridian crystal. "What'sthis? I'm too focused on overflows of mana until you miss it."
"What?"
"There's demons. This is different from where Dion belongs. Who put it down? The bastard who hurt you?"
So the one who knows about Dion's identity is Andaru?
He's the crown prince, anyway, let alone his eyes are special But speaking of where the devil is, where Dion is left so where other demons can enter?
Possibly, Raven? Of course he had to put magic on Meridian's body as one of the guarantees.
"Is that dangerous, Your Majesty?"
Andaru was silent for some time. "It's a destructive magic. And his power is quite great. Who put a protector on you?"
"I don't know. What do I know about where?"
He seems dissatisfied.
But he didn't force the Meridian.
"In addition to that, I only saw traces of Dion's magic. Lucas' spell on you is still on."
"Herdian said that where the devil should not join, Your Majesty. If there is any other demon in my body, will it be alright?"
"Herdian told you?" Andaru raised a glance eyebrow. "Yes, that's right. But Dion's mana in your body is gone. All that's left is the magic."
"Is it different?"
"Yes. Magic is implemented using mana, but magic and mana have different properties. Briefly, mana that was not converted into magic had a sharpness that was more dangerous than magic. They were also uncontrollable, while the magic was restrained."
It seems like Meridian understands. It is like a lemon eaten immediately tastes sour, but the lemon that has been extracted is easier to consume.
Like drugs. If taking medicine directly from nature, one must boil various types of plants and then drink the ingredients tasted garbage, but if taking caplet drugs whose contents are extracts from drugs taste garbage, but if you drink caplet medicine, you just swallow and then rinse with water.
"This is amazing. Where this much churns in your body and you're fine. I think I'm starting to believe there's something wrong with your memory."
Andaru got carried away and continued to observe him.
"I hear you often complain of headaches, Miss. Does it happen often?"
"No. I'm just having a headache when I'm pissed at you, Dion, Lucas, san Herdian."
Andaru. "Thank you?"
"That's not a compliment."
The man sighed. It truly did not reflect a future emperor realm candidate, at least in Meridian eyes.
"My son started to like hurting her future husband. What will happen if we get married, miss?"
"That's if you and I were really married." Meridian tiptoes. Smacked Andaru's lips before he turned around. "Let's go."
"I'm just making sure, but the kiss just now wasn't my pay, was it?"
"That's a pay."
"Miss, that's overkill."
"I want to be happy." Meridians folded their hands with a big smile. "I'm the one who decides your pay."

Meridian also loves action novels and comics. He is one of the big fans of Solo Leveling which despite its cliche story theme and disappointing ending, overall the comic presents an interesting story, the development of characters that are comfortable to read, and most importantly: battle and awesome visuals.
So of course the Meridian does not hate the battle plots in the novel.
But he did not expect that in the novel Laila was this kind of battle as well.
Or didn't?
The flow has clearly changed. From the beginning Laila was unlikely to write intense political conflicts and so on. So the Meridian considers this to be an event that may not be contained in the novel.
After they descended further down, the monsters that had previously been hiding had been depleted. Now creepy monsters appear to attack intruders in their territory, and Andaru kills him with just magic.
That's not too cool, for Meridian. Battle in romance novels cannot be the same as battle in action novels.
The hero in a romance novel only swings once his sword, one battlefield is exhausted.
A new interesting situation arose when they entered the sixth floor, where suddenly a snake-shaped monster appeared.
He was spouting flames blindly, and Andaru seemed to start having trouble fighting with just long-range magic.
"Your Majesty, put protective magic on the body only. Then aim for a small amount of disc-shaped mana on each of my legs. You can go against him."
"Are you okay?"
"Do you need to ask?"
Andaru laughs. He turned his index finger towards the bottom, and the Meridians slowly felt he was stepping on something.
After that, Andaru darted down. Removing the sword from the storage magic tool.
How he was also proficient in swordsmanship made the Meridians somewhat disappointed. But because he wants to be flanked, the edges are indeed over ability, so yasudah.
Rather than that, Meridians observed the pace of the battle.
Andaru's speed increased sharply slowly. If judging from how he did not activate his eyes and decided to fight by hand, it was likely that he would save mana.
Should he try now?
It would be dangerous if Andaru got hurt.
"Your Majesty, can I help you?"
He looked handsome as the wind blew from the tail of the giant snake. "Save the mananu, Miss. Your opponent is below."
Alright.
Do your best.
Meridian folding hand. He thought he was watching a 3D movie.
The tail of the snake was unusually strong. But none of the wind touched the Meridian because of Andaru's magic.
On the contrary, since Andaru was not protecting himself, he was hit by some scratches.
Actually it's pretty great he's survived this far without mana.
As expected of the main character.
And as expected, despite a minor injury, Andaru uprooted the snake.
Villain is just upil in front of the protagonist's power.
"You're so great, Your Majesty."
Andaru rubbed his heavily sweaty forehead. "Thank you for your sarcasm, Nonaku. I don't seem to be very good in your eyes."
Meridian landed smoothly in his embrace. "It would be wrong of you to refuse my help."
"Let's try your powers on the next floor. The monsters there are a bit troublesome."
While hovering again, Andaru placed magic on the corpse of the snake so as not to be approached by other monsters.
"Seems like you know this dungeon structure? Have you ever been to the ground floor?"
"No."
"Then?"
"Not many adventurers made it back alive after passing through the fifth floor. To avoid death, I also avoided the floor with monsters too strong."
Andaru put back his sword into the dimensional ring.
"It's just instinct. The next monster will trouble me. It feels from where it is."
Meridian thinks he's also a roaming expert.
