Momentarily awkward, Reibella rolled her eyes and smiled again as if trying to break the awkwardness. Then she continued the conversation casually. "Did you sleep well last night?" "What about you." "Me? I slept well. Thank you for giving me such a nice room." "It doesn't seem so." ......What does he mean it doesn't seem so? Reibella put her hands to her cheeks and tilted her head as if not understanding why. At this, he let out a small sigh and continued. "If you need anything, just…-

"How did you know they were Baribe items?" "You can tell just by looking." When Reibella answered as if it wasn't a big deal, the man looked at her as if she was quite something. His gaze was now friendly, unlike before. "Did you come alone?" "No. I came with adults. What's this? Is it for self-defense?" Reibella brushed past his question and asked while pointing at an item, pretending to be a curious child. The man answered. "Yes. You've got good eyes. You blow it with your mouth. Like a…

Going to war meant they would be separated for a long time. During that distance, he worried she might forget him. Because Reibella was kind and gentle, loved by everyone. He couldn't step away, worried she might completely forget him while meeting others. Hesitation settled in his heart. "How could I forget? You're my only friend." Only friend. It was a phrase that felt both good and strangely unpleasant. Still, being her only something made him happy. "Ah! Right. I saw someone really…

— "Hey, have you heard? The lord recently finished subjugating a pendra." "May divine blessing be upon our great hero. Whew...... we'll worry less about the harvest this year. Last year, while our lord was away in battle, those damn pendras destroyed everything. Those cursed things go crazy for Nucria! Because of that, wheat and corn fields turned to wasteland wherever they passed. They look like centipedes but so huge and hideous!" The men in the tavern took drinks while sharing their old…-

— "One, twoooo, three!" Bang! At the magician’s signal, his assistant set off a small firework. Smoke billowed as he pulled a pair of rabbit ears from his bag. Cheers and applause poured from the audience. A boy collecting fees went around with his hat among the people. Marienne and Bell also enjoyed it and put in some copper coins. After finishing breakfast, the two had taken a carriage into the town in Rockshield. The accompanying imperial knight silently followed…

“My lady, I shall take my leave now.” Bellisa, who had been following Chloe since the wedding ceremony, quietly excused herself. When the maid, who had finished all her tasks, left, Chloe was left alone in the unfamiliar bedroom. The nightgown, prepared for the bride on her first night, was so light and airy that it felt weightless. Her anxious gaze wandered aimlessly among the furniture and decorations, all of which seemed to have been crafted by master artisans. The time she had…-

Chloe, who had finished her work early, left the office in time for her appointment. The main street, which had already passed the closing time, was deeply dyed crimson. Chloe crossed the street and headed for the omnibus waiting on one side. She had about an hour to spare before her appointment, so she had plenty of time. “To the Tembenon Building on Alonso 5th Avenue, please.” Clutching the handle of her briefcase, Chloe gazed at the sky, the trees, and the buildings lined up…

Duke Dietrich's Monday began with a report on the major performance of investment companies. In fact, Andert had been diversifying his investments in various stocks in addition to the investments made public under the name Dietrich. Of course, Andert's personal identity as an investor was rarely exposed to the public. "The operation of large cruise ships for tourism purposes will begin in earnest within the next year.

Five years of marriage. Of course, even excluding the two years he spent in Daloa, he had visited Chloe's bedroom quite a few times. Certainly, if an heir had been born quickly, their marriage would have been more stable. But that was merely the best-case scenario. Andert didn't particularly regret the absence of pregnancy. If her position becomes unstable, the child's safety would be obviously at risk anyway. Rather, whenever he embraced Chloe, he would encounter his buried instinctual desires.…

— "Did you torment your fingers because those words were difficult to say? And purposely showed me around the castle too?" Veronica tightly clenched her hands and glared at Marienne sitting on the bench. "Miss Rose, did you understand what I said?" "I understood." "Then you'll do it?" "No." At Marienne's crisp refusal, Veronica raised her eyebrows. "Are you mocking me for being young?" "Don't misunderstand. I answered seriously." "This is absurd. Why should the Empire's star…
