The atmosphere of the procession, with tension loosely released, became even more spirited while enjoying the feast. Those who had been exhausted from the long procession were given appropriate rewards, and relief flowed among the procession that they could return to their respective homes after tonight's feast. In the main palace's grand banquet hall, a band played melodies of sweet tunes, and appetizing foods were continuously placed on the tables. Theodore, who announced the start of the banquet,…-

The massive walls of the Arepe Empire's imperial capital created a magnificent spectacle, built high with precisely carved stones. Golden eagles, the symbol of the empire, adorned the towering spires. "Oh my, the palace seems to be ten times larger than Portia's royal palace." "I never imagined it would be such a splendid palace." Sara and Amy exclaimed in admiration as they looked at the imperial palace. Naira, sitting beside them, also chimed in. "Do you think the eagles on the spires are…

The rumor that the residents of Berta Village had disappeared quickly spread to Salope Village, a border town of the Arepe Empire. The appearance of monsters and the fire in Berta Village instilled anxiety in the border town residents. However, at the same time, Princess Arnica's manifestation of holy power exerted a powerful force that offset the anxiety. "Where else could there be such a blessing? We were anxious because monsters appeared, and now a saintess." "It's probably the first time in 20…

Dark night. Dry firewood crackled as it burned. Red light wrapped in blue flames flickered and blazed. Staring at the fire makes the heart feel at peace. But somehow her heart ached. While barely enduring the hot surging that welled up, hands like unripe potatoes suddenly appeared before her eyes. 'Princess. Please eat this.' Patrick, scratching his head shyly, looking cute. The freckles sprinkled under his eyes crinkled as he smiled pleasantly. 'You eat it.' 'I'm fine. If the princess eats…

The village that had turned into ruins was miserable. The place that had been quiet to the point of being desolate just a few dozen minutes ago was now littered with debris burned and charred by fire. Among them, attendants busily moving to put out remaining fires and knights showing clear traces of battle were added, making it a scene of carnage. When they arrived in front of a building, Theodore dismounted from the horse and helped her down. She lost her words and surveyed the chaotic village. It was…

Silver moonlight seeped into the quiet room. The village without lights had deep darkness, but ironically, the moonlight was very bright. Escape preparations were complete. Without much of a plan, the escape was quite simple. She had heard that if she got off the carriage, crossed the village square she had observed, and headed south, she would reach the coast in three days. Once she went down along the coast and found a dock, she could take a boat. She took off the dress that would reveal her…

Darkness came quickly due to the thick clouds. When she turned her head, the three maids were nodding off, probably tired. Soon there was a signal to stop, and the carriage slowly came to a halt. However, no instructions were given to unload luggage and prepare for lodging. "Have we arrived at the village?" Amy, sitting by the door, stuck her head out the window and peered around. "I can see lights in the distance, so it seems we need to go a bit further, but I don't know why we're stopping…

She glared at the charcoal in the brazier and pounded her chest with her fists in frustration. Is it so difficult to say ‘rest well’? Her heart ached in one corner from feeling disappointed in Theodore. "Princess, are you hurt somewhere?" The startled Naira, who had been fanning the embers of the brazier to make them grow, stopped and asked. "No. I'm just feeling a bit frustrated." Once she opened the floodgates like that, the maids began to speak one after another. "But how did you get…

There was a gently flowing river a little distance from the barracks. She walked to the river to aid digestion amid the evening bustle. As she strolled along the bank, following the gentle flow of the water, she moved at a relaxed pace, counting with her fingers. One, two, three, four, five. Damn it! Because she had eaten them thoughtlessly because they were delicious, there were as many as five brownies that had gone into her stomach! She had eaten too much, making her chest feel stuffy and queasy.…

Theodore discovered that one side of Ice Valley had collapsed and rode his horse relentlessly with a few elite knights, following the traces of monsters. He was worried that the monsters might have headed toward the Portia Kingdom procession heading to the imperial palace. This was because the monsters' movement was directed toward the north of the Arepe Empire. The Portia Kingdom was not just a vassal state under the Arepe Empire's control. Its military power matched the empire's military strength, and it…
