If I had to pick one of the good things about living by the sea, I would answer without hesitation: the sound of the waves. Crash, crash. Swoosh... It's a sound that never gets tiring, no matter how much you listen to it. Listening endlessly seemed to clear my complicated mind. "Ah, it's nice." Beyond the horizon, the dawn was breaking, slowly pushing away the darkness. The deserted beach was quiet and free. Even though the three heroes had invaded Ponitan, at this moment, I was…-

You bastard. I wanted to curse Johann to his face, but I couldn't bring myself to do that to the emperor. Instead, I conveyed my feelings through my eyes. I really hate this, I really do. Did my sharp feelings get through? The smug smile on Johann's lips slowly disappeared. The gradual change in his expression etched itself into my mind. Even though it was good that I hurt the wicked man who tormented me, strangely, my heart felt pricked as well. Why do I feel this way? I couldn't…

The sound of waves echoed in my ears, and the open view was captured in my retina. Yesterday, I spent the whole day being tormented by the three heroes, but today, surprisingly, I passed the day quietly alone, except for the morning. Perhaps because there was so much to think about. Or maybe because my heart felt restless. I did nothing but stare blankly at the sea, and before I knew it, the sky had turned a yellowish hue. Growl... "Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything…

Do they like such places? "It's peaceful." Reflecting on the conversation he had with Seraphina a moment ago, Johann looked down at the view of Ponitan. <He’s really important to me. So promise me you won't treat him carelessly. Then I'll take it back.> <......> She really didn't understand a man's heart at all. Saying something like that would upset anyone, no matter how gentle they were. When she asked when he started liking her, his heart lifted to the clouds, but then she…

The atmosphere was tense. Even Mihail and Claude, who were usually at each other's throats, didn't block Johann as he led me away. Normally, such a thing wouldn't be possible. What is this? Was my reaction that strange? The mere mention of the ‘Battle of Agulena’ made me lose all sense. I couldn't even guess what expression I had. Swallowing dryly, I followed Johann's lead. We left the house and passed through several alleys, destination unknown. "Your Majesty, wait a…

"With pure light." I recited the spell I had learned from Mihail as if it were a habit. Saaa... A soft purifying light, like mist, blossomed from my palm. Watching it, I blankly stared at Mihail's enraptured expression, which I had seen countless times before. I remained still until he once again kissed my palm. "Ah..." But it was different from usual. In the past, he would lightly brush his lips like a…

Why is he having such an absurd misunderstanding? If I could, I would like to open Claude's head and take a look. "Ahem." Did my expression look too confused? Claude seemed to have finished tidying my hair, as he withdrew his hand and awkwardly cleared his throat. Then he gave a hint of sorts. "You took the dried camellia." "......" How did he…

A tingling sensation started at my fingertips and seemed to spread through my entire body via my veins. Even without looking, I could tell my face was as red as a ripe tomato. A wave of heat surged over me. A strange and unfamiliar sensation. "Ha, don't do it." I said, curling my fingers. But Mihail didn't listen at all and held my hand even tighter. His lips moved from my fingers to my palm, wrist, and…

As I glared at him with intense eyes, Johann cleared his throat a few times and began making excuses. “Ahem. He was lurking around suspiciously.” “How would you know who’s suspicious when it’s your first time in Ponitan? How did you know this was my house?!” I questioned him excitedly. If Jesuf were here, he would have been shocked at my impudence, but I didn't care. Jesuf wasn’t here, and Johann, the person involved, kept averting his eyes with a guilty…

“Umm...” A hot breath escaped between my teeth. It might have been Johann's breath. Our breaths were intertwined like tangled threads, so mixed that it was impossible to tell whose breath was whose. My mind was foggy, and I couldn't think of anything. The kiss was softer and sweeter than milk chocolate, and I felt like my whole body was melting. It was my first kiss. Then Johann's fingers tangled in my hair, wrapping around the back of my head. His hand firmly…
