    • Chapter 15. Cover
      by dorothea After the storm had passed, Bellian's act of personally escorting Shuvien to the Empress's palace and issuing threats seemed to have had an effect. Everyone treated Shuvien as the Empress, showing respectful courtesy and doing their best in every movement. Shuvien found it honestly awkward and burdensome, but she knew she needed to get used to it. 'Maybe it feels more so because I've never experienced this before. It's natural since I was just an ordinary citizen when I lived over there.' She had…
    • Chapter 18. Cover
      by dorothea Shuvien was investigating the maids with Majeta in the audience chamber. In fact, rather than Shuvien investigating, she was mostly watching from behind, and Majeta was taking on the role of the villain. And her presence was truly formidable. "So no one knows? Is that all you have to say after coming all the way here?" Majeta's fierce gaze fell like a guillotine over the maids' heads, and they couldn't stop trembling as they shouted in unison. "We, we really don't know anything. We were told…
    • Chapter 3. Cover
      by dorothea "From now on, you are my empress." What is this madman saying! Didn't he just hear me? I said I'm pregnant with another man's child! 'Could it be he doesn't believe me?' Suddenly, he firmly grasped her stomach. His touch sent shivers down her spine. "This child is also mine." It was the brightest expression she had seen from him yet. Especially in his eyes, beyond joy, there was madness. Beyond a tyrant, could he be completely insane? Bellian saw her confused expression and…
    • Chapter 12. Cover
      by dorothea Shuvien grasped Bellian's hand tightly without the slightest hesitation. "I'll stay by your side. Don't worry about curses or anything like that. I'll be fine." Under that resolute whisper and unyielding gaze, Bellian felt an unfamiliar emotion and unconsciously opened his mouth. "Aren't you afraid of me?" But he paused, surprised by his own question. 'Why am I asking this? Of course she would be afraid of me. Everyone in this world sees me as a monster.' "What is there to be afraid…
    • Chapter 5. Cover
      by dorothea Could I really be pregnant......? "Pfft!" "Miss? What's wrong?" "Puhahahahaha! Impossible. Really? Really? Are you joking? I can't do that alone! Ah, I'm going crazy. Hahahahahahaha!" When Shuvien suddenly grabbed the sink and started laughing like a madwoman, the maid beside her turned pale. Regardless, Shuvien couldn't stop laughing. "I mean, I'm not a hermaphrodite. And it's not like storks deliver babies. No matter how I think about it, such nonsense—hahahahaha!" "M-Miss. You seem…
    • Chapter 22. Cover
      by dorothea "Everyone must know without exception. And if anyone has other thoughts, I won't let them be." At these pointed words that seemed to be aimed at someone, Shuvien kept her mouth shut and quietly turned her gaze away. No, inwardly she felt quite stung. 'What's this? Could he possibly know that I'm planning to divorce him later and run away? Did he notice the reason I shortened the wedding schedule? This feels like a painful truth bomb aimed directly at me!' What is this feeling of being instantly…
    • Chapter 16. Cover
      by dorothea To announce that the Emperor of the Alcanta Empire was welcoming a new Empress, they needed to paint the Empress's portrait, and this was not a simple event. It was the Empress's first social stage where she would formally appear before the imperial Elders and nobles. Alman, the imperial painter who had painted portraits of emperors and empresses for decades across several generations, was having a long discussion with his disciples about the easel position. Behind them, Elders, nobles, and ladies…
    • Chapter 1. Cover
      by dorothea A sculpted man sat on the bed in a place perfectly suited for intimate affairs between a man and a woman. Before him stood Shuvien, a thoroughly ordinary lady—not particularly pretty, pure, elegant, or beautiful! She slightly averted her gaze from him. The awkward atmosphere between them revealed everything plainly. That they had just met today. But their purpose was the same. The man slowly rose and walked toward her. Through his slightly disheveled silver hair, deep eyelashes cast…
    • Chapter 21. Cover
      by dorothea 'You're growing to resemble the former Emperor.' 'My goodness. I truly thought the former Emperor had come back to life.' 'Following the former Emperor, blessings will dwell in this Great Alcanta.' All the blessings people gave while looking at Bellian's face weren't blessings for him but memories drawn of the former Emperor. Bellian was merely a vessel to seal the demon god; he had always been overshadowed by the former Emperor. After all, it was the former Emperor who had made Alcanta…
    • Chapter 2. Cover
      by dorothea Bellian sat dazed on the bed after waking up, quite unlike himself. No, honestly, he was shocked. "I slept this deeply......?" It had been a very long time since he had slept so soundly without even dreaming once. Moreover, it was the first time he felt this good after waking up. He had slept so well that his appearance was a mess. His hair stuck out disheveled and his face showed slight pressure marks. But such a ruined appearance didn't matter at all. He would gladly look ruined…
