The holy temple blessed by the one god Eclad. The great cathedral built there, the main headquarters of the Eclad faith. A priest of Eclad who had finished his late-night prayers and was returning to his quarters turned his head at a faint sound. 'Strange. There shouldn't be anyone here at this hour.' The priest approached the door he had just passed, puzzled. Recalling the recent rumors that had disturbed the great cathedral about strange souls and moving shadows, he couldn't just pass…-

Winter when frost settled on every branch of the garden trees, spring when flowers scattered following the west wind, summer when water droplets splashed from fountains cooling the heat, autumn when seeds sown with sweat bore fruit, and winter again. The flow of time that circled between the marble columns of the court was both long and fast. I turned twenty-one in spring, and friends around me began getting married one by one. The wines sent from the territory had aged properly, and marriage talks…-

The imperial opera house, built by the previous emperor to commemorate the 70th birthday of Empress Eugénie, the great-grandmother of Elene and Crown Prince Julian, displayed the pinnacle of luxury. Between marble pillars entwined with golden grape vine decorations, splendidly dressed people moved through the space filled with red velvet-covered seats.

Alexion had been emotionally detached by nature since birth. To the extent that he had never lost his composure even once on battlefields drenched in fresh blood. But Alexion's face as he paced in front of the delivery room was full of anxiety. His attire, which was always neat to the point of being fastidious, was disheveled messily, and his silver-gray eyes enduring the indefinite time of suffering were streaked with bloodshot veins. The words of his subjects telling him not to worry didn't reach his…-

Professor Sven's mouth opened wider and wider as he looked down at the project report. Having been in the teaching profession for decades, had there ever been a student who produced such perfect results until now? He sent an admiring gaze through his thick glasses. "Indeed...... If this method is applied, the effect of healing magic would be considerably amplified even with less mana usage. Excellent, Your Majesty the Empress." "Thank you. It's thanks to your good guidance, Professor." It was when…

Time passed quickly and it was finally the day of the victory banquet. Having lived as a count's daughter for two years, she thought she had become accustomed to splendor. But the banquet hosted by the imperial family far exceeded Erna's imagination. Dozens of crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and sculptures inlaid with jewels. There were countless other things to list, but unfortunately now was not the time to leisurely admire them. Her two eyes moved busily as if searching for someone…

"Miss. Miss Erna!" "Mmm...... Ten more minutes. Just ten more minutes of sleep, Masha......" Despite Erna's whining, her personal maid Masha's attitude remained firm. "You said the exact same thing an hour ago. Did you forget that Miss Violet and Master Zenon are coming today? Get up quickly." Masha forcibly helped Erna up, who was wriggling deeper into the fluffy feather comforter. Dragged to the bathroom in a half-asleep state, Erna didn't wake from her drowsy sleep until after she had bathed…

"Hnngh." Alexion's lips, which had just devoured all of Erna's breath, traveled down her slender neck and collarbone, leaving marks in their wake. Every spot his lips touched burned as if scorched by fire. While Erna could neither move nor resist the heat spreading throughout her body, Alexion grabbed the clothes covering her chest and pulled them down. "Y-Your Highness!" While Erna turned pale at suddenly having her chest fully exposed, Alexion's expression remained leisurely. "Why, can't…

"Your Majesty." "Shouldn't you dance the second song with me, Empress?" She couldn't answer and hesitated slightly. With her current feelings, she wanted to continue talking with Heinz. She also didn't have the confidence to face him. "Heinz, do you have more business with the empress?" "No, I should step aside." She inwardly cheered for him not to step aside for once, but helplessly watched as Heinz willingly moved away. If he wanted to repay the favor, he should do it properly,…-
