"What?" I've never connected with anyone...... "There's no way it's thanks to me......" "Here, take the referral fee." "That's right. It's all thanks to me." Erica promptly shut her mouth and quickly accepted the referral fee. 'Maybe it's one of the customers from my shop?' Occasionally, when she remembered, she would mention to people who came to her shop that there was a vacant room upstairs. None of them had ever shown serious interest, but since the landlady said it was thanks to…

Looking around pensively, Eric finally realized. "Ah! Where's Mom? Geez, she told me to stay close to her. I'm aging rapidly because of Mom!" When he was about to go look for his mom, someone suddenly grabbed him. He thought it was the girl, but it was the man. "Why, why are you doing this?" The man was incredibly tall. He blocked the sun completely, making his face appear dark and difficult to see. "Could it be......" But judging from his voice and the hand on Eric's shoulder, the man…

As of today, she needed to confiscate "when" as well. Erica's destination was a certain grocery stall. "Please be generous and add just 1 copper more." "No, I'm already giving you a great deal......" Even that brief time while Mom haggled with the market vendor over the price of yesterday's mushrooms felt endlessly long and boring to a young child. After looking around the grocery stall and getting bored, Eric began to slink toward the next stall, but his mother, who apparently had eyes on…

When Eric tilted his head at the incomprehensible question, the girl also tilted her head in response. This caused her light golden hair, like silver threads, to cascade over one shoulder with a silky flow. It was like sunshine pouring down. "Are you a spirit of sunlight?" He only asked because she looked like a fairy. But could she have misunderstood it as something offensive? The girl's fair face suddenly seemed to turn pale and then... "Dad!" ...she shouted and ran back the way she had…

But the moment Erica scattered feed on the opposite side of the yard, the chickens' eyes changed. All four of them seemed to completely forget about their eggs as they rushed out of the coop in a flurry. While the chickens pecked at the feed, Eric snuck into the coop quietly. "This one I'll boil, and this one I'll fry in the shape of a daisy......" The child carefully picked up each egg one by one, afraid of breaking them by holding too tightly, and handed them to his mother while singing. When he…

There was no sound from inside. Had the woman finally died? Erica unconsciously imagined Roderick's back view, sunk in despair. While anger surged within her, she also felt a petty sense of glee. She hoped Roderick had loved that woman. So he could suffer from the same sense of loss that she felt. That would feel like revenge. But on the other hand, she felt disgusted with herself for wishing someone's death to become her revenge. 'Erica, don't become such a beast.' Erica stood in front…

"Aack!" A sharp scream came from behind Roderick. The person moaning and curled up on the bed in the room was a woman. A heavily pregnant woman. "A young couple checked into the room downstairs last night......" Couple? There was no other man in this room. Then Roderick was that woman's...? Erica's face turned deathly pale. She turned an accusatory gaze toward Roderick, but his equally pale eyes were fixed on Erica's swollen belly. "Erica, my God......" Just as Roderick reached out…

Brahe had never been loyal to Winchester and Otte. It was merely a retreat to achieve their greater cause. In fact, the heirs of House Brahe had been thoroughly brainwashed and educated for generations, and the current Duke, Gaspar Brahe, was no exception. Hundreds of years ago, when Brahe had not yet become a ducal house and remained a count's family, a new religion called 'Mort Faith' emerged in what is now the Kingdom of Vasa, which was once the territory of Count Brahe during the ancient Charenne…

After hearing that story, Hailey said it sounded fun and wanted to try having an all-night party. The gathered members were only Dora, Theo, Roto, the head maid, and the chef who agreed to provide delicious snacks for today's party. That was until Axel heard about it. "You stay up all night frequently too." "I do that because I have no choice, for work. And haven't I been sleeping well with you at night lately?" "You think I don't know you slip out at dawn?" "That's......!" Unable to add…
