The Eldran Continent is a land filled with many races and monsters.Humans are the official rulers, yet they are surrounded by powerful enemies. Fortunately, if a human reaches the age of 18, they might awaken a profession and gain great combat power.Allen Walker was an orphan from the slums, yet he awakened the SSS-rank profession,The Heaven-Cursed.Users of The Heaven-Cursed can only cast Forbidden Spells, but using them costs their own life.No The Heaven-Cursed user in the Eldran Continent has ever lived past 30. But Allen seems to have infinite life.If The Heaven-Cursed costs life? Let's just add one million years to it.And so, a madman no one dared to mess with was born on the continent.A local thug cried, “Boss, I just stole a piece of bread. Wasn't it a small thing? Why use a Forbidden Spell on me?”A Vampire Prince bowed. “Lord Allen, may I have just a drop of your blood? In return, I'll give you my daughter in marriage.”The Dragon Realm pleaded, “My lord, take all the gold in my treasure hoard. Please stop using Forbidden Spells on me!”The Demon King shouted, “Are you crazy? Using Forbidden Spells like that will kill you! You'll die if you keep this up!”...Ten years later, Allen finally turned thirty.All the races of the Eldran Continent threw all-night parties in celebration.A Great Dragon roared, “It's been ten years! Do you know how I survived these ten years? That jerk is finally dead!”The Demon King cheered, “Today, we attack the human world to celebrate!”The Light Pope laughed, “Now, who dares to defy me?”Just as all the races became reckless and thought nothing was off-limits, they froze in terror. Allen was still alive.Thirty more years passed, and Allen was still alive.Three hundred years later, Allen used his Forbidden Spells like basic attacks.Three thousand years later, the continent was unified, and all races paid their respects.The Demon King knelt respectfully on the ground and asked the question on everyone's mind,“My Lord, are you truly immortal?”

Changqing has always felt that she’s incomparable to Guan Ying in every aspect. Even though she is pretty and has a good family background, this world is nothing more than a world where Princes are more attracted to Cinderellas.

Her first love that she dearly remembers in her heart for years eventually becomes Guan Ying’s current boyfriend and her fiancé is Guan Ying’s ex. He has yet to forget Guan Ying.

A business marriage brings Changqing and Song Chuyi together despite the absence of love.
In public, he is her friend’s ex and in private he is her husband who cannot be publicly–known.
At the hospital, her good friend enjoys her husband’s embrace while she can only act as though he’s a stranger.
At a gala dinner, her good friend hooks her arm around her first love’s arm shyly and she can only smile and give them her blessings.

…

In this marriage, Changqing thinks that all is well other than the fact that Song Chuyi doesn’t love her.
First, her husband is a doctor and he can treat all her illnesses while saving up on medical expenses.
Second, doctors love cleanliness and her husband would always ensure the cleanliness of the house.
Third, at the end of every month, her thin wallet would grow thick with cash that her husband stuffs in secretly.
Fourth, as a person who doesn’t like to exercise, she always get dragged around by her husband day and night to do some pleasurable exercise that is beneficial for the body and mind.
Fifth, she would never have to worry that she would be out of money.
There are always so many uncountable advantages that Changqing enjoys.

…

After the marriage, on a certain night, Changqing looks at Dr. Song gloomily. “Hubby, why are you so nice to me when you don’t even love me?”
Dr. Song continues reading his medical books and ignores her. It’s sometimes quite a headache when your wife is too stupid and daft.
Until one day, Changqing realises that there’s really no free lunch in this world…
