As soon as Divlik finished speaking, Eva asked, "Why did you do it?" "Do what?" "Didn't you say it was your hometown? Why did you reduce it to ruins? I heard after the war ended that you showed mercy to nobles who governed their people well, and that you passed through without touching a blade of grass if the people there said they would follow you." "That's right." "Then why did you do it? Those who ruled Florin must have been good people. None of the people living there would have refused…

Bubble, bubble, hearing the sound of boiling water and smelling the familiar scent of herbs she had encountered before, Eva slowly opened her eyes. It was late afternoon, with the sun casting long shadows as it descended. "Miss Eva, are you feeling better?" Tap, tap, tap, Mia, who had been grinding herbs in a small bowl at the bedroom table, noticed that Eva had regained consciousness and rose to approach her. "How are you feeling, Miss Eva? You've been unconscious for an entire day. Please wait a…

In spring, the path leading into Florin was lined with peach trees laden with pink fruits hanging in clusters. While walking along the path, gazing at the not-yet-ripened fruits, Leon would invariably appear and wrap his arms around Eva's waist. —Leon. After sharing their bodies for the first time, the couple continued to embrace each other away from people's eyes: in summer among the flowers that bloomed densely on the hills, in autumn on the scattered fallen leaves, and in winter under bare…

They say when people face something utterly absurd, they laugh. "Ha, haha......" As Acelia laughed hollowly while staring into space, her maids approached with concern. "Your Highness, are you alright?" "Is something wrong?" "This is ridiculous!" Acelia jumped up and began pacing rapidly around the room. "This makes no sense. I must have seen something wrong. How stressed have I been lately? Seeing hallucinations. ......Hallucinations? Right? It must be a hallucination. Heh, hehehe. It…

The princess was clearly being backed into a corner. Yet instead, she used the crisis as a stepping stone to leap even higher. Diego recalled the satisfied expression on the emperor's face when the princess brought back the favorable negotiation terms for the Empire. His teeth ground together. "......The princess is hiding something." "Pardon?" Though his subordinate questioned him, Diego sank into thought with a hardened expression. 'Did she join hands with Princess Lenoa?…

"This is about Her Highness the Princess, right? How she hides her identity, mingles with the people, and willingly helps those in trouble." "Today she's a flower-selling girl. The day before yesterday she was a stall vendor? That slap was so satisfying!" A passerby chuckled, saying such men should all be thrown in prison. The person he was talking with expressed concern. "But isn't her method too aggressive? She could have just called the guards." "Come on, that's possible because she's Her…

The hearing was heated from the start. "We need to take a firm stance! Why should the Empire bow to the likes of Fernando? Bluntly speaking, the culprit hasn't even been identified yet. Why should we take a submissive position?" "That's right. If they look down on us, the Empire's prestige is finished, finished!" The hawks insisted they should never appear weak, even if it meant war. "But a prince who came as a state guest was harmed. He was even the strongest crown prince candidate among the…

Joachim surely knew. That Casper would die. But he did nothing beyond warning Acelia. Even though he could have saved him. Of course, Joachim had never gone around actively interfering with the future he foresaw. Even when a bear appeared during the hunting competition, he merely observed. Though Casper flirted with everyone and lived promiscuously, had he committed sins deserving death? Not really. So why did Joachim let him be poisoned? He’s a high priest whose role is to save…

The atmosphere in the imperial palace was absolute chaos. Acelia hurried toward the residence where the Fernando Kingdom envoys were staying. Many people had already gathered after hearing the news. "You cannot enter!" "Please go back! The investigation is still ongoing." She heard knights shouting. Acelia pushed through the crowd to the front. "Sir Miller!" "Your Highness Princess Acelia." "What happened? I heard the prince has died." "......Please come this way." Since Acelia…

Today, Prince Casper's flirting continued. "I understand why the Empire has hidden the princess away all this time. With such beauty, it wouldn't be strange if wars broke out between nations over you. Like 'Spionel' from Rodic mythology." Acelia felt goosebumps all over from his greasy words and actions. Her forced smile twitched with a slight tremor. 'Spionel' was equivalent to 'Helen' of Greek mythology. The one who caused the war between Greece and Troy. 'It's just because I had no presence.…
