“You didn’t come here and leave all the party preparations to Emma, did you?” “Of course. I was about to leave soon anyway.” At her words, Estieren nodded as if to say she should hurry up and go. Perideline puffed out his cheeks and spoke. “Brother, you really don’t understand my feelings at all.” “What?” “Even though you know that the fairy is my benefactor, how could you give me only three days to prepare the party? The schedule was so tight that I failed to hire…- 537.6 K • Ongoing
- ̊ · : * ✧* : · ̊ “She’s certainly a remarkable person. It’s usually hard to believe that there could be side effects to the magic cast by Lord Diel, but seeing how she even sought out an informant, it seems she’s convinced there are aftereffects.” “....” “Ah, is it because she isn’t an ordinary lady?” Estieren’s brows furrowed at Lev’s murmuring. Considering the personality of the Master of the Magic Tower, it was unlikely that he…

- ̊ · : * ✧* : · ̊ Three days went by faster than I expected. Marie’s face noticeably relaxed upon hearing that the Grand Duke had promised to find a healer. As expected, even though she pretended not to show it, I couldn’t help but feel sorry seeing how worried she was deep down. As I paced around the room while waiting for him to contact me, I noticed Marie glancing nervously from time to time. I realized that I was also making her uneasy, so I smiled and spoke…

- The place he guided me to was a small cafe, a little away from Erhel’s central square. There were no private rooms, but since there were only a few customers, it wasn’t a bad place to have a quiet conversation with him. What was interesting was that most of the customers were women. “It’s a place I often visit when I come to the capital. Not many people come here.” I nodded vaguely at his words and glanced around. For a moment, I felt like I made eye contact with a woman who had been…

- As he cut off all the words, my voice rose without me realizing it. He smiled at the sight of me before leaning forward. “So, if there’s a chance to help the Lady, would you grant it to me?” “...I don't know what Your Highness is talking about right now.” Unsure of his intentions, I took a step back and replied. Even though Estieren observed my wary expression, he added with an indifferent face. “Given that you've come with a mask early this morning to see the Duke and there’s a…

- ̊ · : * ✧* : · ̊ Marie, who had been chatting about how excited she was because it had been a long time since she had gone out, turned pale when she saw the carriage stopping in an unfamiliar alley. She followed me as I got out of the carriage and headed into the alley without hesitation, but eventually, she couldn't hold back and asked. “Yo-Young Lady, may I ask where you are going?” Her voice was trembling slightly as if sensing something ominous. I pretended…

- “Oh, I heard that some members of the Bonn Bairmun merchant community also entered the country this time. It would be best not to go near Neitzia or the bordering forests." “…M-May I ask the reason why?” “....” “I-I hope you're not suspecting citizens of the Empire.” Estiere responded with a nonchalant expression to Allen’s question, who asked with a hardened expression. “If you don't want to be suspected, wouldn't it be better not to give any reason for suspicion in the…

- “Magic ore? Do you need magic ores for your research?” Lev, who was grumbling in response, blinked his eyes in confusion at Estieren’s unexpected question. It was only when Ban tapped his shoulder that he came to his senses and hastily answered. “That's generally the case for high-level magic like petrification magic. In particular, in the case of petrification magic, we can't experiment on people since we know that its side effects can be fatal.” “....” "Therefore, we usually…

- There was a big difference between the presence and absence of the person who was making a fuss out of fear. Alone in the dark forest, his mind flashed back to the bodies he saw in the forest a moment ago. What happened to the bodies of the dead people that were hardened like stone? Jen, who was hesitating due to the overwhelming fear, suddenly came to his senses. ‘Even if I go back like this and return empty-handed, I'll be sentenced to death by His Majesty the King.’ He turned his body,…

- ‘So, she's the young lady everyone is talking about.’ 〈 Is the lady you’ve been talking about a moment ago the Young Lady of Marquis Aidelis? 〉 In response to that question, Diel leaned towards where Estieren was sitting. Although there was no one around to eavesdrop, he spoke in a low voice, almost like a whisper. 〈 Doesn't this make you think those temple people are really stupid? Even though they kept praying to hear the voice of the gods, in the end, the one who could hear the gods…
