Joachim was praying. In the solemn prayer room. Kneeling before the goddess statue holding a water bucket, Joachim was the embodiment of piety. His neatly combed silver hair, well-shaped forehead, sharp nose bridge, and beneath his long, downcast eyelashes, deep blue eyes. His face was flawlessly beautiful, but his expression remained rigid. "My Lord God, protect the foolish from the tribulations of the world." The Founding Day Festival approached. While people were intoxicated with the…-

Acelia, who didn't have a particularly good impression of knights, was inwardly surprised. Whether it was the Red Hawk Knights or the Chick Knights, they had been barging in without permission, but Claude came first and stated his affiliation and name. She had never heard the greeting "Devotion to the Star of the Empire" before. It was the highest expression used for a princess. She naturally felt a softening of her heart. With a slight smile, Acelia greeted him. "Hello, Sir Miller. You're…

Acelia passed the audition. Angel spoke with amazement. "Has Your Highness the Princess performed on stage before? Your volume, pronunciation, gestures, and gait don't seem like a beginner's. You also control emotional expression well. There are areas that need polishing, but as an actor, you pass." "So can I take the lead role?" "Of course. I'd like to request it of you, actually." Acelia's face immediately brightened. She had been nervous, but it seemed her skills had shown through. I'm…

During the Founding Day Festival, the capital fills with people. It was a golden opportunity to increase followers. Moreover, Acelia had been writhing with the desire to act until Gale came to visit her. 'I could just find a theater troupe, right?' Acting was something Acelia excelled at, and standing as an actor in a theater troupe would make it easier to gain fans. The lady with the ash tree script had briefly mentioned that the troupe had rejected her script. In Acelia's view, the work…

Surrounded by ladies who rushed toward her as soon as she entered, Acelia felt slightly intimidated. Why, why. Surely they won't hit me? Unconsciously clenching her fists, Acelia relaxed her hands when Ensia greeted her gently. "Welcome, Your Highness. I was worried you might have lost your way." "The welcome greeting is unique here, Ensia. I had some business on the way." Acelia countered Ensia's veiled criticism about her lateness by questioning if this was how one welcomed…

Acelia, who had been thinking deeply, slapped her knee. "Could it be because of solving the slum problem?" Though it wasn't completely resolved, rumors would have spread throughout the slum. Since Duke Seta had begun dismantling the gangs, life would have become more comfortable. That explained why the number exceeded 10,000. Though she doubted whether achieving 100,000 followers within two months was even possible. She felt fortunate to have this much at least. Come to think of it,…

"This is too much." "What do you mean?" "The academy starts in ten days!" Bestia grumbled while waiting for the door to open in front of the emperor's audience hall. "Didn't you decide to take a leave of absence?" "That's what you pushed for, Grandpa Chancellor!" "Was it?" "Totally! You gave Grandpa Aesop thirty gold coins and dragged me all the way here!" As Bestia said, Duke had handed gold coins to Aesop. It wasn't a negative exchange of money. It could be considered a cost for…-

The Duchess of Hilbert, Celia von Hilbert, was the flower of high society. Despite not appearing frequently at social events, every time she attended, all the men were desperate to dance with her, to speak even a single word to her. The fact that she already had a husband, or that she had a son with that husband, had no effect on them whatsoever. Men, regardless of whether they were married or not, waited only to dance with the Duchess of Hilbert. On days when she appeared at balls, the Duchess…-

"He's even blaming the young lord for the death of young lord Henrick." Khalid, who rarely showed excitement in front of the Grand Duke of Winchester, clenched his fist and muttered harsh curses under his breath. Henrick Brahe was not only Axel's friend but also Khalid's. Since Khalid had clearly seen how Henrick died, he couldn't calmly accept that Axel was being blamed for his death. But no one reprimanded Khalid for his unrefined remarks. Everyone felt the same way. Duke Brahe's claim was as…-

"To close that door, the spirit must… wake up and open… that door. But. Only the… child of… God can awaken that spirit." In the end, they had to find the child of God by any means necessary. They needed the child of God to steal its power, and they also needed the child of God to close the door to the divine world and completely dominate the human world. When the Grand Duke of Winchester strengthened security for the Witch's Forest, they needed Viscount Bernat to easily access that…
