"So. You couldn't become Duke. That's why it took me so long to find you. Father." Between the flickering candles, her eyes transformed into those of a wild beast. Her face, now devoid of any smile, revealed no emotion. That expressionless face approached as an even greater terror. "I also spent all that time looking for you, so aren't we even?" "I suppose so. Then shall we end the trouble of searching now?" Rudbeckia drew the sword at her waist and charged at Diego. Biljeef created a water…-

Going to the duke's castle was as good as saying she was going to kill Biljeef Moon. "Your strategy?" "I don't have one." "...And you call that an answer?" "Does it matter? Whether I have a strategy or not. Whether I return dead or alive." A silence like thin ice about to break flowed between them. The room gradually darkened, perhaps from layered clouds passing over the sun. It was a silence so quiet that one might hear the sound of gently falling snowflakes. "Aren't you sorry to Froy…

Just as she recognized him at a glance, Diego also recognized Rudbeckia immediately. He might not remember the face of a six-year-old child, but he could still recognize her. Because she looked exactly like the younger version of Adele Glimm, his wife and the mother of that child... it would have been harder not to recognize her. The two stared at each other without saying a word. Caleb, who was about to greet him, and the aide 'Biljeef Moon,' who was going to make introductions, also closed…

"Where did my husband go? He said he'd be here." "Ah, he just went into that tunnel with Grandfather. It's not dangerous, so you don't need to worry." The ladies laid out mats and set down the food they had brought one by one. They urged the two to eat first since they didn't know when the others would return. Since they hadn't eaten proper food since lunch yesterday, the two didn't hesitate and began devouring sandwiches, boiled potatoes, and other foods. "Come to think of it, where did that…

After everyone paid their respects, Rudbeckia turned to village chief Robert and asked. "Ah, since you're the lord... you should stay at the castle. But in this season, it's impossible to even enter. You can only see the castle spire in midsummer." "That's fine." Robert scratched his head at Caleb and Rudbeckia's request and brought a blank piece of paper. Then he roughly drew the castle's location with his house as the center point. "Well, there's no way a place like this would have a proper…

Dent stopped stroking his chin and looked back. 'Please spare me. No. You can kill me......! If you're going to kill me, at least send my body back to Helen! I must return!' 'Why?' 'There's a child waiting for me.' Dent's footsteps receded. His steps leaving Helen softly landed on the snow field. He walked on it while looking out at the empty field. 'You chose to live. But you'll regret that decision until the day you die.' 'I'm fine with regret.' 'Alright. I'll let you live. Follow…-

"Madam, you shouldn't lie on the bare ground. The floor is cold." The next day, Catherine visited the garden field. As she leaned against a tree in the center of the field, nodding off, a maid approached cautiously. She narrowed her eyes. "Hmm. Is that not allowed?" "It doesn't look good for the servants to see. I'll ask someone to bring something to spread on the ground." Catherine firmly pressed her stiff eyelids shut. The maids hurriedly brought something to lay out, but her consciousness…

She walked the path to the viscount's residence again. The carriage passed smoothly, and a rural village unfolded before her eyes. Catherine opened the window and looked outside. "Do you remember when it poured rain on the first road to Helen?" "Did it?" "With thunder and lightning striking, Helen's knights forced their way into the residence. With silver armor clanking, I honestly felt like a death row inmate." A death row inmate coming to kill me. Since I already knew the future of dying with…

Her lower abdomen felt dull. Catherine tossed and turned on the bed before slowly getting up. Though her body felt stiff, nothing was unbearably painful. Her body was somewhat tired...... But that seemed to be from not getting enough sleep. And the reason she wasn’t able to sleep well was right beside her, so there was nothing she could do about it. Lorendis bent down as he put on his shirt. Catherine hunched her shoulders and avoided him. "I'll tell the maid, so rest today." Lorendis…

"Aack......! Where did she go!" The day after Grace fell down the stairs, Armon shouted in Grace's room. The conversation he had with Melvin earlier flashed through his mind. If she wasn't in the infirmary, there was no other place Grace could be except her room. Thinking this, Armon went straight to Grace's room as soon as he finished his conversation with Melvin. However, Grace wasn't actually in the room, and some maid was loitering in front of it. "Why isn't she here! I came all…-
