When Yevar heard about Lady Margaret's condition, he collapsed grabbing the back of his neck. He tried to somehow blame Seiden for losing the Demon God Book right in front of them. His scheme was to modify part of the contract by bringing up an unrelated contract. Naturally, such tricks didn't work. Finally, even Yevar had to admit that it wasn't Seiden's fault that Lady Margaret's curse had peaked on that particular day. In the current situation, waking Lady Margaret from her comatose state was their…

In front of the temple, a place that never knew peace, was crowded with people as always. However, the protesters who had once demanded Bellota's dismissal from her position as saintess, and at another time demanded Seiden Blackwood's removal from his holy knight position and a ban on approaching the saintess, were no longer present. Instead, the space they had once filled was now occupied by those who wished to experience, even indirectly, the prophecy of 'that day.' "Seiden of House Blackwood has…

That night, the rumor of Duke Geril Lylester's arrest consumed the entire capital in just one day. The temple handed over Geril, who had been held in the temple prison, to the Emperor along with scandalous evidence proving he had conspired with dark mages to target the imperial throne. Enraged, the Emperor immediately imprisoned Geril in the palace's underground dungeon. With more than half of the dark mages he conspired with also captured, Geril had no way to recover. It was fortunate that…

So that was, truly, a very long time ago. It was when Seiden was only sixteen years old. Around that time, Seiden had grown so much that no one would believe he was sixteen, and he was so exceptional that no one would believe he was sixteen. Everything about him was like that. And the sixteen-year-old boy felt a slight aversion to life, enough to realize that his given life was rather a curse. Around that time, the boy's peculiar father had planned his son's life in advance. His strongest goal was to…

When the Saintess appeared at the full moon banquet to personally clarify the malicious rumors, the public opinion that had been ready to drag her from her position immediately subsided like cold water had been poured on it. After a few days, most people even hesitated to bring up the matter. Since almost none of the imperial citizens had refrained from participating in those rumors or criticizing Bellota, they all felt awkward. They naturally began acting as if nothing had happened, and Bellota's name…

Thwack! Thwack! "Haaah! Haaaah!" Vigorous shouts filled the training grounds. Kabillon sat carelessly on a boulder around the training grounds, watching Philip training energetically with a bright face. It was completely different from his nearly-dead expression from not long ago. Thwack! Thwack! "Heugh! Heuuugh!" After the day Bellota rejected Geril's proposal, Philip completely revived. He was flying around as if nothing had ever happened. And Kabillon, precisely since that day, had been…

Bellota sat facing Geril in the luxurious reception room. Anger and betrayal settled heavily on Geril's face, making him tremble. Bellota calmly met his gaze without avoiding it. Early in the morning, Bellota had slipped out of Seiden's embrace while he slept, declared her position at the temple, and headed straight to Geril's mansion. Then, to Geril who greeted her with natural expectations, she gave her answer of rejection. "I cannot accept your marriage proposal, Duke. I'm sorry." At that…

For several days after that, the entire empire was in chaos preparing for the hunting festival. Bellota and Seiden were also busy, so there was no need to encounter each other again. The same was true for Geril. Geril, who was in charge of the hunting festival, was nowhere to be seen. The news that Seiden was participating in the hunting festival had quickly spread throughout the empire, and it clearly had an effect on Geril as well. Until now, Geril had won all the hunting festivals except for the…
