*** “I’m doomed.” The 16th. The 16th. I knew I was forgetting something. That was Arven’s day off. The extra holiday I’d voluntarily given him in exchange for information about Maichel’s magic. Arven, thrilled with his two-day break, had been excitedly anticipating visiting his mother since the day before. Seeing his happy face, I couldn’t bring myself to ask him to cancel his leave. ‘Of all days…’ Dejected, I gripped the railing and climbed the stairs. The fresh scent of water…- 161.8 K • Ongoing
“I have a plan.” “I’m not confident, but I’ll hear you out.” I folded my arms like a stern judge and looked at the author. The author scribbled with a quill in the air. Unintelligible letters raced across the surface of the water below. It seemed they were revising a pre-written synopsis. The letters danced above the water's surface, then settled lightly onto the parchment in the author's hand. Scratching their head with the end of the quill, the author read through the…- 161.8 K • Ongoing
“Louisa? Did you just say Louisa?” Strangely, the single word 'Louisa' cleared his mind instantly. With a fierce expression, Adel quickly approached Evan and gripped his shoulders, his face contorted like a demon. “Yes, Your Majesty. I’ve been told Lady Louisa is currently in the infirmary. Perhaps injured while attempting to escape…” Before Evan could finish, Adel cast a spell. Regardless of the details, Louisa was in danger. Fortunately, Adel knew the way to the infirmary. He had…- 156.5 K • Ongoing
- *** She desperately tried to break her fall, shielding her head. Fortunately, she'd only fallen to the floor below, so she wasn't seriously injured. “Ugh…!” However, her now near-human body felt the pain acutely. Her back, which had absorbed the full impact, throbbed. Groping, she pushed herself up and looked around. Thankfully, just as she’d hoped, the area was deserted. It would have been a headache if someone had been there. “Haah….” But the real ordeal was just beginning.…

*** A few days later, a visitor arrived at the Emperor's office in the Central Palace. It was Lilibet Kraus, dressed in an elegant linen dress. She came straight to the point, smiling brightly as she spoke. “Wouldn't you like to join me for an outing to the Duchy?” “.…” Adillot, who had been looking over documents, raised his head. Lilibet flinched slightly. The Emperor had changed in the past few days. Before, he seemed indifferent to everything, but now, a…- 250.6 K • Ongoing
- “The Empress Leia, hailing from Gentaria, was remarkably close with a knight of her guard, also from Gentaria. If this is true, we've been bowing our heads not to the blood of the Schroder imperial family, but to a foreign race!” The one making such a claim was a low-ranking noble. Of course, Empress Dowager Krysor was behind it. It was a preposterous claim, but the problem was there was no way to prove otherwise. Empress Leia, anticipating such a situation, had obtained notarization from the late…

What’s going on? A commotion stirred in Bywood as people gathered. Workers, it seemed, from the mithril mines near Lextis. “Ahem.” Cliff disembarked and slipped into an alley, transforming into an ordinary young man. Shifting to human form was always so draining. He started toward the crowd when something caught his eye. He didn’t need to ask questions. A delicate, beautiful castle now stood upon the Lextis mountains. The Lextis heir had appeared. If the heir has become a…- 140.9 K • Ongoing
- Rosaline swung her legs from the bed, then shook her head. Suddenly, as if remembering something, her eyes widened. “” She responded to my words with exaggerated awkwardness. Tch. She doesn’t believe me. “” “” Rosaline repeated the word over and over, her tone dripping with disbelief. I continued speaking as I signed the document. She believed that part. Rosaline’s prophetic dreams had been incredibly helpful in Bywood before. “” My pen stilled on the…

“You’ve returned to Asius after so long.” ‘Why would you come to see me? ...And at a matchmaking meeting, no less?’ Nothing he said made any sense. “A, Ahem! Your Highness, with all due respect, I’m currently having an important meeting with Lady Aviche.” “Are you?” “And the perfume you took was a gift for Lady Aviche. Please return it….” Raymond examined the perfume he had taken. “Is that so?” Then, with a nonchalant smile, he…- 123.0 K • Ongoing
- “I’ve seen you several times at social events.” “Is that so?” “Yes. I’ve always wanted to speak with you, but I never had the opportunity….” Milo smiled shyly. “I’m so pleased to finally meet you.” “....” “Truly, my lady.” Katrina considered her options. Even if she refused Milo, the Duke undoubtedly had several other suitors lined up. ‘It’s tiring to meet each and every one of them….’ Duke Aviche would likely…
