'Why does he have to be so handsome......' Edelle was feeling the insurmountable wall of his appearance, as imposing as his high rank, when the moment was interrupted. "Forgive my late introduction. I am Monty Swift, in service to His Highness the Grand Duke. His Highness merely wishes to ask for an explanation of what situation occurred and what you experienced.

The next day, in Fonete's central plaza. "The weather is nice~ My mood is nice~" Edelle sat on the edge of the fountain, humming a little tune. Her modest green dress swayed with the movement of her tapping feet. Everyone passing by looked fondly at her as she smiled brightly at each person. "Edelle?"

The garden wasn't particularly large, but for the two children, it was a playground more delightful than anything else. The whimsical yet lovable girl captured pretty and pleasant things from every corner of the garden in her sketchbook, while the slightly bigger boy followed behind her with a book clutched to his chest. 'Ellen. Wait, Ellen.' 'Hurry up, Robbie.' When the girl crouched down to find a place to use her conte crayon, the boy would sit beside her, turning pages in his book or…

One month later. I woke up to the sound of curtains being pulled back. When I opened my eyes, Marina turned toward me and smiled brightly. "Did you sleep well, Baron?" "Mmm." I rubbed my bleary eyes, turned over, and pulled the blanket back up to cover my neck. "Oh my, you can't! If you fall asleep again! And today of all days." "Mmm, sorry. Just a little longer." "Oh, really! Do you want to be criticized by the Highcross servants from the very first day? Being late to your own…

"Baron, you're here!" "Oh, Rian. How's your arm?" "Well, it's bearable." My handsome worker showed me his arm suspended in a protective sling around his neck. "I just feel sorry that I can't be much help to the construction team. Everyone is working so hard." "Oh my! Count! Please don't say that.

A cool breeze came from somewhere. It was a wind that gently scattered my hair and soothed my throat, which felt as if it had been burned. If heaven existed, would it feel like this? Quiet, peaceful, and cool...... When I opened my eyes to the sensation of something tapping my fingertips, I saw Mrs. Clo's black bead-like eyes and small beak. So in heaven, we're together...... "Gasp! No!" "Shh!" As I tried to sit up abruptly, someone held my other hand. When I turned to the side,…

The flames seemed to have been extinguished, but smoke filled the air everywhere. The second floor corridor appeared to be empty. Florian quickly checked each room, confirming they were vacant, then swiftly proceeded to the third floor. Right in front of the stairs, he saw a young couple with a little girl just coming out. The wife and child had covered their mouths with cloth pieces, but the husband was coughing continuously with his bare face, and all of them were streaming tears due to the…
