“Know what?” “That the Duchess would have you stand before the council of elders.” “Was the Duchess the only one? You cooperated with them, so why are you acting like you had nothing to do with it?” She had anticipated a similar situation, knowing the spy planted in the family would try to oust her. She was almost certain of it when she found out the spy was Selena’s maid. That was why she had intentionally used the perfume to provoke her. “I warned you.” “A…- 123.0 K • Ongoing
“Katrina, do you know?” “Know what?” “There’s something the winner of the hunt festival does for a lady.” “Is that so?” “And there’s something the lady must do for the winner in return.” “...Is that so?” She didn’t know what it was, but seeing Lucifer’s sly grin gave her a bad feeling. “What do you think? Isn’t it exciting?” “...Yeah.” It wasn’t particularly exciting, but she felt she couldn’t show it for fear of disappointing…- 123.0 K • Ongoing
Besides, since I didn’t know Paul’s true nature until now, I avoided it even more. Perhaps there was a reason Paul had been left alone on the fourth floor. He said he had followed me because he was happy to see me, and he had come all the way to the fifth floor. If his habit was to chase after anyone he saw, nine out of ten ordinary people would faint. I didn’t think for a second that he would have just let those people go. “Paul. Have there been others besides me who have come to the fourth…- 130.4 K • Ongoing
Still, it must get lonely, being stuck in a place like this. It was a place students would never wander into, and a place Morgen, Kyren, or Lesvilt would have no reason to visit. The same went for El. The only person who might come by was Aeon, and from what I had seen of him, he was not a particularly diligent person. It had been terrifying when Paul chased me, but in the end, I wasn’t hurt. I even got a new staff, and more importantly, I now knew he bore me no ill will. It felt wrong to stay…- 130.4 K • Ongoing
“What do you mean, what was different! It’s that she used too much guiding energy, too quickly, and too often! Other guides couldn’t do that even if they wanted to! The rate of depletion was far too fast. She probably experienced some sort of sensory abnormality before she collapsed. It wouldn’t have been the typical case of simply fainting from exhaustion.” “I was with her when she collapsed, Director. She mentioned her senses feeling dull,” Ji-hoon, having finally regained his senses,…- 116.5 K • Ongoing
The five espers followed Park Eun-tae into an empty conference room. The opaque glass walls made it impossible to see outside, adding to their sense of confinement and frustration. “Can’t I just go and see Hee-yoon’s face for a moment?” Ji-hoon’s complexion was so pale it was almost blue; he looked as if he could collapse at any second. “I’m told this won’t take long, so you should be able to go after we’re done.” At Park Eun-tae’s response, Seon-woo started to…- 116.5 K • Ongoing
The term “substitute” was a bit unsettling, but she had a vague idea of who it might be referring to. Perhaps the man who had been with Duke Reneger was Hayden Reneger. I wonder if his name was chosen to mean ‘one who lives in hiding.’ The name piqued her curiosity. Robelia continued to read the guild’s notes. As Harven Reneger is in a position where she cannot inherit the ducal title, Hayden Reneger has been named the next successor to the duchy. There is a strong rumor that Harven…- 105.4 K • Ongoing
“I suppose not.” I couldn’t answer my Master’s question right away. This world had already gone far awry. God was gone, and the protagonists had divorced. A new Great Demon War had not broken out, and two of the original story’s male leads had failed to awaken to their intended professions. One of the protagonists had disappeared, and another had been on the verge of death. It was the same as the original story, and yet different. “Are you…- 105.4 K • Ongoing
“…” “Still, my sister isn’t a child… You two are so devoted, aren’t you? She’s safe in the mansion, what is there to be so concerned about?” Ludwig chuckled, seemingly pleased that his sister’s husband cared for her so much. The siblings even looked alike when they smiled. Seeing that smile, so much like Sasha’s, Heiner felt his heart soften slightly, though it wasn’t enough to erase his baseless anxiety. His eyes then fell on a cage in the barracks. A rabbit, which had been…- 150.7 K • Ongoing
“Do not release her until she begs for forgiveness.” At the stern voice, the butler bowed his head. It wasn’t even five in the afternoon, yet the entire world was awash in gray. A bone-chilling winter rain beat furiously against the windowpanes. The Margrave stood with his hands clasped behind his back, glaring out the window. “But…” the butler began, “I worry what the Viscount will say when he returns and sees the young lady…” “A father disciplining his daughter is something…- 150.7 K • Ongoing
