The Imperial Princess, Life as a Divorce Lawyer

Adore_Rain
After two months of not writing, I came back and reread my story. Noticing that I pigeon hold myself into a dead end in some chapters. I unintentionally burned down bridges that make it hard for both myself and Bethel to move forward. So I'm going to work on redoing the chapters into a different writing style with them being 1k each. Because I want people to actually read it and enjoy it. Not just leave a comment to 'offer in making it better' without reading it. For now it currently a short pause. ◇◇◇ In a kingdom where matrimony beliefs stood at the pinnacle of everyday life. Bethel Green dares to open "The Cleaved Knot Legal Services," offering escape from brutal and broken marriages. But her radical mission stirs dangerous opposition, threatening her precarious new life. Bethel is no ordinary divorce lawyer; she's Princess Ophelia, the youngest imperial child from the powerful, distant Emeraldleaf Empire. Born into an ancient lineage founded by a magical clover that transformed a wasteland, Ophelia fled a nine-year marriage that brought her to the brink. Now, she fights for others' freedom, offering a chance where neither societal stigma nor the church would. Her desire is to change traditional laws, to reveal the harsh reality of marriage, and to spread this hope like wildfire across vast seas. One little problem... the type of cases Bethel will take on will more be than she could handle. A client request, no matter what status they uphold, will be a head twisting difficulty. As threats mount and her meager funds dwindle, Bethel must take a desperate gamble: hire Rupert, a disgraced former Sword Master and Knights Captain. Stripped of his hard-earned wealth and status after his sword aura was contaminated and his unit perished battling a shadow beast, Rupert—a survivor from a childhood of poverty and loss—is exactly the kind of desperate, skilled individual who might accept such an offer. He's a man willing to risk everything for a pittance and a roof over his head. After falling from two different heights in the world. Can this former princess and disgraced mercenary cleave the bonds of injustice without unraveling themselves in the process? ______________ Client 1: Please help me divorce from my dead husband! He been haunting our home for months! Bethel: Apologies, but I'm a divorce lawyer for the living... not a exorcist. Client 2: My wife has been writing letters to a nobleman, help me find out who he is. So I can challenge him to a duel! Bethel: If you have no interest in dissolving your marriage, please leave my office. Client 3: I need to stop my father remarriage! That woman is a snake! Bethel: ...Should I just start upping my fee for these ridiculous case

World martial art

Legends are not born. They are forged — through pain, defeat, and unbreakable will. Leo, a boy from a small village in Nepal, always believed he was ordinary. But everything changed the day a forgotten evil awakened in the mountains — the Dragon Spirit, once sealed away by Leo’s own father. Kaito Jin, a rogue wielder of beast power, breaks the seal and unleashes chaos. Leo tries to fight, but he is powerless. His father sacrifices himself to protect him. That day, Leo loses everything. But he gains one thing — a reason to rise. Carrying the scar over his left eyebrow, the memory of his father, and two unimaginable spirits inside him — the Lion King (Guardian of the Gods) and the Phoenix (God of Fire), a power connected to his mother’s soul — Leo begins a journey across nations. In China, ancient masters push him beyond his limits. In Korea, he learns discipline, philosophy, and inner balance. In Japan, he encounters powerful rivals and a girl who slowly changes his life. In India, Indonesia, and other countries, he faces challengers, builds friendships, and discovers new forms of martial arts. From international tournaments to mysterious beast realms, Leo must face fear, rivalry, loss, and the uncontrollable powers within him. Because one day, he must confront Kaito again. Not as a weak boy… but as the strongest martial artist the world has ever known. This is World Martial Art — a journey of strength, growth, destiny, and the flame that refuses to fade.
