Roa blinked her eyes, trapped in Yvaine's arms. She didn't even have the presence of mind to push away this forceful man. Currently, whenever Roa saw Yvaine, she worried that the sound of her pounding heart might reach his ears. 'What is happening?' Why was she suffering this indignity when she came to meet Yvel? Roa recalled what happened several dozen minutes ago. At the princess's invitation to the imperial palace, she knocked as usual and entered the room. But instead of Yvel who should…-

"Why are you lying?" 'See, Roa? I told you this guy is crazy.' Yvel pulled her head back as far as possible as she looked at Yvaine, who was glaring at her threateningly. Yvaine gripped both armrests of the chair Yvel was sitting in, preventing her from escaping. "What lie did I tell?" "Did Roa really say she 'just doesn't like me'?" "Come on, that's what she said. People's feelings can change in a day, you know." Yvaine didn't believe Yvel's words. After meeting Roa, he could…

Rozian's lips trembled. She continued her act of crying, but the vicious malice filling her eyes was visible. "Manchester respects the Blemer grand ducal family. Your Grace, this is an issue between Lady Rabbit and me." "Clearly, regarding last year's incident caused independently by an elder of the Blemer grand ducal family, we sent an official letter of apology and appropriate compensation to the Manchester family. I thought the matter was concluded since the Manchester family accepted our…-

All the tension drained away after the Countess left. "Amazing, Ivy! I couldn't even greet her properly, but you...... were so impressive." "That's our Ivy. It's been a while since I've seen Godmother's pleased expression. She always clicked her tongue saying today's young ladies lack spirit." Isilla even applauded. "I'm glad she viewed me favorably. I was worried about making a bad impression on your godmother." "You were truly impressive, Ivy." Seeing Rebecca so happy for me as if it…

The banquets hosted by the imperial family are different from the world of novice young ladies. The social circles are divided into factions: the Empress faction led by the Empress, the conservative faction consisting of prestigious ladies, and the progressive faction who openly embrace their desires, love art, lead luxurious balls, and set trends. The Empress faction, which doesn't overly adhere to formalities but maintains appropriate etiquette while leading society from a neutral position, was…

As soon as I finished speaking, the meal stopped. He fidgeted with his fork before setting it down with a clatter. "You're leaving?" "The remaining lessons can be completed by sending a teacher to my house, and the Marker brothers are making the medicine well. Since you'll be at the temple for a week, I'll stay at home. I miss my father too." "Is that the only reason? Ivy." "What?" "You wouldn't leave me." His hand on my cheek was warm, but his voice was nothing but cold. "I won't…

Could this purification ceremony be different from what I thought would end in a day or two? Ominous thoughts always proved right. "Yes, that's already a shortened period. The Black Dragon's curse, passed down since the founding of the nation, couldn't be dealt with as simply as for ordinary people." "It's conducted with twelve high-ranking priests and the high priest taking turns praying day and night, Ivy." I stared at Priest Lark with my mouth open. "In the early days of the founding, the…

Love was greatly disappointed when I said I wouldn't get engaged. I planned to rest at home for a while, but I quickly left because I couldn't stand seeing Love lying limply on the sofa with a gloomy expression. Edwin was leaning against a flat carriage across from my house, though the letter probably hadn't arrived yet. He appeared uninjured, suggesting he had safely escaped yesterday's commotion. Edwin waited in place until I approached him. "Ivy." "I'm sorry. You must have been…

"No, Edwin doesn't know. We went in together, but I did it alone!" He had seen me with Edwin from the beginning. My lies were completely exposed. I lied to him and deceived him, and nearly died in the process. I didn't turn around, but I could imagine what kind of look Kaien was giving me. "Well......" I explained the situation while fidgeting with my hair. "Priest Lark Mühel has a younger sister he was separated from as a child." "What does that priest have to do with…

"Ack? Mice?" "What the hell? Why are these mice suddenly appearing?" Mice began swarming in from somewhere. 'Dangerous!' After defeating the orc, having animals swarm around could give the enemy a chance to escape, so I put the bracelet back on. The approaching mice flinched in surprise and scattered in all directions. They scurried across people's bodies, escaping toward the walls and doors. "Oh, he killed the orc." "As expected of Grand Duke Blemer......" As the subordinates…
