He suddenly became curious and asked, "Why do you care so much about Dr. Aristena?" "Because she's Aris. At first, I was drawn to her because she seemed to be in a similar situation as me, being known as an oddball with bad rumors. Then, even though she must have heard the rumors about me, she didn't keep her distance..." Belle, who had been speaking with calm eyes, suddenly closed her mouth and shot Mishuan a sharp look. "No, why should I tell you this? We're just friends, so I can care about…-

08 Aris gasped and opened her eyes wide in surprise. After taking several rough breaths, she felt her body. Her abdomen was perfectly fine, with no abnormalities. "It was just a dream..." Of all things, to dream about the end of her past life. Aris sighed with a grimace at the pain she had felt in the dream. Whenever she had such dreams, she couldn't help but wonder what had happened to that place after her death. Perhaps nothing had changed even after that incident, since it was a world…

"Your Majesty, watch your back!" At Mishuan's cry, Kalaian was startled and cut down the monster flying in from behind. His attention was scattered due to monsters pouring in from everywhere. 'How can they move with so little presence?' Though he had fought countless battles since first being appointed Crown Prince, he had rarely felt his life threatened. Kalaian roughly expelled his held breath. His nerves were chilled. But there was no time to hesitate due to fear of the threat. Kalaian…

At that moment, Aristena stopped walking and suddenly turned around. When his sharp gaze that had been glaring at her met those verdant eyes, his intensity crumbled. Again, those eyes. Eyes that reminded him of that day. Eyes that had looked up at him tearfully. Eyes that had been fading like Lanvel's final moments... Kalaian erased his displeasure and put on a ceremonial smile. "Do you have something else to say?" "Um... Your Majesty." As Aristena hesitated, Kalaian slightly furrowed his…

Recognizing them, Kalaian let out a reflexive laugh. It was almost a laugh of anger. 'That child... was the Marquis's daughter?' Kalaian had known that Marquis Eldeiz had a daughter. In fact, that she was his eldest daughter. That child wasn't illegitimate at all. The one he had saved turned out to be the only daughter of Marquis Eldeiz, who had insisted on holding this banquet that caused this disaster. Suddenly, revulsion welled up. If he hadn't insisted on this banquet, Lanvel might still be…

His arms tightened around him. Then, a faint sound was heard from beyond. Kalaian held his breath for a moment to hear it. Though impossible, it might have been a sound from Lanvel. But the source of the sound wasn't Lanvel. Crying could be heard from somewhere. The sound of a child crying loudly. Kalaian recognized the sound and hesitated, but then just held Lanvel tighter, pretending not to hear. But he could no longer wail like a beast. He didn't want to make his presence known to that…

Seeing this, Kalaian felt relieved. A gentle peace washed over him like soft waves. It really was nothing after all. It seems nothing will happen. The banquet venue, located a short distance from the imperial palace, came into view. It was a large hall, almost like public property, available for use with imperial permission. There were also several other large and small annexes in the surrounding area. As they approached, the sounds of the banquet could be heard. "Fortunately, there doesn't…

Lanvel burst into laughter at twelve-year-old Kalaian's grumbling. He laughed so heartily that his neatly styled graying hair shook. "You're exactly like your father when he was young. We can enjoy ourselves during the festival period. Not just the capital's citizens, but even the villagers near the front lines will be having their own celebrations. There's no other time when people can relax and enjoy themselves as freely as during the Founding Festival." "...It's still strange that monsters don't…

Kalaian smirked when he heard about Aristena's actions. Indeed, she was not to be underestimated in this life. "Ah... but I'm worried because her heart is too soft. If it were me, I would have said straight out from the beginning that this person was my former roommate who had bullied me!" "...Rather than having a soft heart, she was probably considering the shock her friend would receive. Aristena tends to have a lot of anxiety and worry. She's also excessively careful." Kalaian responded dryly…

During the height of the meal, Serena suddenly slipped with her knife while cutting into her sauce-covered steak. This caused sauce to splash onto Aris's clothes, who was sitting right next to her. Serena exclaimed with apparent surprise. "Oh my! I'm so sorry, Miss Eldeiz..." Aris could immediately tell that Serena had done it intentionally. She responded with a cold gaze. "It's fine, it'll come out in the wash." "Here, use my handkerchief first." Serena took out a handkerchief from her…
