"I was too flustered then to express my gratitude." Aveline looked at Johann with trembling eyes as she struggled to speak. Oh, oh… With those doe-like eyes, what man wouldn't fall for her! Even as a woman, I find her so pretty and she triggers protective instincts! "Ah. Is that so." However, contrary to my worries, Johann replied in an indifferent tone. Aveline bowed her head sincerely towards him. "I'm truly grateful. I owe Your Majesty a great debt." "It's only natural for…-

It was as Johann said. As dawn was breaking, we were able to meet the extermination team led by Claude. Only the knights on watch duty were awake as the sun hadn't risen yet. "Miss Seraphina?" A knight who recognized me jumped up and ran over in one breath. "Is it really you, Miss Seraphina? Oh my! I'm so glad you're safe." A voice mixed with joy, relief, and emotion washed over me. Starting with one, other knights on watch duty also rushed towards me. I could clearly feel that everyone…

As the situation in the Grodes Mountains became ominous, the imperial family spared no effort in providing active support. I learned through a maid's words that among the personnel supported in this way, there were even three purifiers. Unlike the knights, these rare talents who received special treatment were given good rooms in Hilton Castle, but due to their rushed arrival at the time, there weren't proper rooms prepared, she said. Thus, Aveline, one of the three, ended up receiving the room I…

If asked which museum on the continent had the most collections, it would undoubtedly be Sahar. And Mihail had worked tirelessly to achieve this great and proud title. Whenever news of a precious relic being discovered reached him, he collected them one by one, sparing no means or methods. In short, they were treasures as precious as his own blood. But… "Are you joking?" A chilling voice flowed from Mihail's mouth. The museum director and staff, urgently summoned due to the Holy…

"As long as it's not the Grodes Mountains, anywhere is fine." Unlike me, who was too flustered to do anything, Johann was briefly surprised but quickly regained his composure. Then he smiled vilely, as if he had teamed up with Montfian. Wow. He really looks like a villain. Suddenly, Mihail seemed like a pitiful pretty boy who had fallen victim to villains. When the world's only warp mage and the emperor join hands, even the Holy Knight Commander is no match. That was my impression. "Are…

I seemed to have gotten a bump on my head from being hit quite hard. I glared at Montfian while covering my head with both hands. There's no way he didn't notice my teary, stinging gaze, but the rude old man didn't even bother to look at me as he turned to Johann. "You appear quite noisily." Johann said, watching Montfian trudge towards him. His blue eyes glanced briefly at me, who had been hit for no reason, before turning back to the mage. Unfortunately, it seemed he couldn't say anything,…

Something seems off. Even though Ionia had taken a step back because Johann found Aveline, an excellent purifier, my dispatch was being delayed more than I expected. Something I didn't know about must be happening in the imperial palace. My intuition told me so. Sensing this strange undercurrent, I asked Johann whenever I had the chance. For example, when we happened to meet in the hallway. <When are we leaving?> <Marseus has a lot of backed-up work. Well, organizing…

"I asked because it was an unscheduled visit." Despite the tense atmosphere, Ionia lightly brushed off Mihail's question. But that didn't ease the tight air filling the reception room. Mihail smoothly curled up the corners of his mouth. "Ah, is that so?" It wasn't really just an ‘Ah, is that so?’ I could tell even just from his voice. As expected, Mihail continued, as if to say it wouldn't be fun if he dragged it out. "Are you worried that I might stubbornly hold on, saying I'll take…

Knock knock. That's when the intruder arrived. "I seem to have interrupted a good time." Without a hint of apology, Mihail knocked on the open door with one hand. For reference, we had gotten three rooms at the inn, and I was using the middle room. I had no say in the decision, and after the two of them had a battle of wills, this is how the room assignments ended up. Anyway. I had been lying face down until now, but at Mihail's appearance, I raised my body. "Sir Andantino." Maybe…

Whoosh… Smoke carrying a bitter sigh flowed into the air and dispersed faintly. Staring at it blankly, Cyril put the cigar back in his mouth once again. Damn it. It's bitter. It felt like a huge hole had been created in the middle of his body, as if his heart had been carved out whole. A cold wind kept blowing through that gap, driving a person mad. "Why did you just let her go?" Jacques, who had been hiding in the background of the beach, revealed his presence as he took a step closer.…
