Kalaian spoke softly with a stern gaze as he cupped Aris's endlessly trembling cheek. "As long as I'm by your side, that won't happen." Hearing his words, Aris began to cry as if a dam had burst. She had been so scared. She didn't even know why her body was reacting this way. Afraid that he might execute her for the greater good, assuming the worst about her condition. That like back then, no one would listen to her... But someone believed in her. "...Stop." Kalaian briefly said while…-

Aris fired magic with all her might. A red magic circle flashed above the monster rushing at her, and it exploded and died right before her eyes. Monster blood splattered all over Aris. After the attack magic she had prepared just in case succeeded, she turned and started running. The monsters, stimulated by the magic, roared angrily and noisily chased after her. Panting heavily as she ran into the nearby forest, she used another powerful attack magic as soon as she got away from the protective…

09 After much deliberation while discussing countermeasures with Mishuan, Kalaian said, "Aristena hasn't discovered anything else, right?" He recalled the incident where she would be in danger in the future. Kalaian slightly furrowed his brow. "Yes, it seems we can only learn something if the doctor investigates the moment when the rift disappears." Hearing Mishuan's answer, he nodded. As if he had expected this, he seemed to have already predicted that nothing could be obtained from an…

If you're going to visit, you should come earlier. Why come right when I'm writing a letter? "What brings you here, Miss Frencia?" "Were you preparing for bed? If so, I'm sorry for coming like this." Serena, waiting outside the tent, was somehow different from usual. She didn't have her usual bright smile that she always showed when mocking Aris. Instead, she had an urgent look about her. "What's the matter?" "Come with me somewhere. Please." "Where at this hour?" Aris asked warily.…

"I'm not fine with it. It pains my heart to see you struggling with that heavy bag every time." When Mishuan responded gruffly, Aris burst into soft laughter. "You're too kind, Sir. If it were anyone else, they would have fallen for you by now." Mishuan paused for a moment at her words. But he soon laughed playfully and pretended not to have heard. "By the way, Sir Mishuan, is something wrong? You've seemed troubled lately." "Ah... I'm just a bit tired. Please don't worry about…

"Doctor, you're already helping us in your own field. We're grateful for that. We couldn't ask you to do this kind of troublesome work too!" The knights, who knew well of her achievements, waved off her offer. Aris smiled modestly and said, "Come to think of it, I haven't seen any monsters appear since I arrived." "Do you need to observe when monsters emerge? If so, maybe you should go to another site..." "What? Why?" Aris tilted her head at their skeptical response. Most people knew that…

"What? No! You need to eat more than me, how could you give me yours..." "Just watching you eat makes me full though?" Mishuan had said it playfully, knowing she would refuse. But seeing her cute flustered rejection, he thought he really could give her his entire portion. "Shall we go together?" "No, Doctor. Please stay seated." While Mishuan went to clear away the finished dinner, Aris looked up at the quiet night sky. Stars densely embroidered the sky, and an aurora spreading in vast…

Aris stood at the boundary Kalaian had shown and looked at the rift. It was about ten steps away from the rift. "For now, observing it is the best we can do. It would be best to see it up close, but I'll have to use magical tools instead." As Aris muttered with a serious expression, Kalaian nodded with an approving look. Not noticing his gaze, Aris thought about the rift alone. 'The orb we collected last time isn't reacting to anything...' What should she do to get another clue? Aris had…

Mishuan let out a slightly awkward laugh. Since he had only visited during military campaigns, he knew nothing about tourist attractions or local specialties. Aris nodded and smiled in understanding. "I see. I have those moments too sometimes. Usually when I'm just passing through an area to travel somewhere else. Though I might stop to rest, I never had time to look around." "Right... That's exactly like me, Doctor." "Where were you traveling to at that time?" "Just to a coastal village…

They were ultimately who they were. No matter how much she had pleaded about her unhappiness, cried, expressed her pain, and found a new life... At that moment, Aris's gaze, which had been scanning the letter with cold eyes, suddenly stopped. Her eyes widened. Her blue eyes gradually showed distress and began to waver. Aris read the sentence she had already skimmed over again, slowly this time, as if engraving it in her eyes and heart. [Aristena, we know you don't want contact from us. Perhaps…
