Selvia stared at the clear green eyes. Amon sat across from Selvia, quietly waiting for her words. "First, I'm sorry for calling you so suddenly." "Not at all. I heard you're leaving tomorrow." "Before leaving, I wanted to ask something clearly. As you said in front of everyone then, has my power...... really changed in nature?" What he had said at the previous council kept bothering her. If the nature of her power had truly changed, she might no longer be able to absorb darkness. She…-

"I'll return before that happens." Selvia smiled while lightly touching Ratius's fingers. "Then have we finished all necessary conversation?" He asked curiously. "Not yet......!" Though she tried to quickly shift her hips to the side, his embrace was faster. "Didn't you say earlier you'd hold back?" "That's right. I'm still holding back." He smiled and kissed the tip of her nose. "But can't I kiss you before leaving?" Ratius's hand lightly touched her lips as if asking…

"I'll tell you everything I know!" Ines grabbed Selvia's skirt hem and begged. "Please, please...... I cannot return to Delpheron." "It seems you were hiding something." "If you go to Delpheron...... you might not be able to return." She had never thought she would be able to return to the Empire casually after going to the kingdom. If Beatus had intended to just let her return after seeing her, he wouldn't have made Ines do such vile things. "Why do you think that?" Selvia sat in a…

Leliana couldn't believe the princess's words. Golden light flickered and surged around her. The continuous rain had made it impossible to send letters. Seeing Leliana creating light every night without rest to cause confusion, Sophia grew increasingly anxious. 'The rain needs to stop soon.' Before that, she needed to let Leliana know that a letter had been sent. Though it hadn't been sent yet, she thought it better to inform her in advance. "Lady Leliana, I've informed Her Majesty the…

The council had ended. The two headed toward the carriage to return to the palace. "The rain is still pouring." "But it feels refreshing now, unlike before." "I hope your worries wash away with the rain." Selvia smiled while gripping his hand tightly. "I think they've already washed away." The two soon boarded the carriage. With the rain falling and the wind blowing fiercely at the same time, it seemed to create strange sounds. Each time the howling wind hit the window, it…

Ratius and Selvia stood at the entrance of the council hall. "I, I...... I just did as I was told......!" Her head turned at the voice filled with fear. "Your Majesty, may I have a word?" Ratius nodded. She approached Ines without hesitation. Ines, held by both arms by knights, trembled as she looked at Selvia. "Ines, was it?" Selvia bent down and whispered in Ines's ear. "If you tell me truthfully who ordered you, I'll spare your life." "Your Majesty the Empress." "How…

Selvia woke up and looked beside her. She should have felt warmth, but she felt nothing. Only something soft was nestled in her arms. "......what is this." It seemed Ratius had left a pillow in her arms in place of himself. Selvia buried her face in the pillow and laughed. Though he wasn't in the room, his scent remained. A cozy yet refreshing citrus scent lingered. Moreover, her body had already been cleaned and dressed in sleepwear. "Ah!" She hurriedly searched for…

After Amon returned to the temple, silence fell in the office where only the two remained. Selvia faced Ratius and wordlessly stared at his lips. "Are you really going to send me? No, should I be sending you?" Ratius seemed confused. His eyes showed uncertainty about what was right. It was the same for her. "It won't take long. Even if it does, Your Majesty will come find me, so there's nothing to worry about." "......How can I not worry?" Ratius heaved a deep sigh. Selvia…

Selvia's gaze toward Ratius was unusual. "It seems both Your Majesty and I have things to say to each other." "I certainly do have something to say, and it seems you do too." Selvia nodded. It didn't matter if Amon heard. The three sat in chairs. And without anyone taking the lead, they all spoke simultaneously. "Your Majesty." "Selvia." "I......" Looking at the two, Amon spoke again. "I will speak after your conversation is finished." "That would be best." Ratius…

Selvia opened her eyes to the sunlight flickering before them. Her whole body was so stiff that even getting up was difficult. She hadn't meant to provoke him. Ratius had devoured her like a truly starved person. He left marks by gently biting all over her body. She too couldn't hold back and bit his shoulder with her teeth. Though it left tooth marks that anyone could see, Selvia was satisfied. At least it was better than the red marks blooming all over her body. 'His tastes are…
