Owen hurriedly supported her. Celian spoke whatever came to mind while shaking her head. "I died today. Say I was shot and fell off a cliff. If you try to take me back, I'll really jump off that cliff. Then it will be true." "Celian, what are you talking about......" "I'm scared." "......" "I'm scared of Izer."

"Ugh......" Those few seconds of death throes felt like an eternity to Celian. Unable to even think about straightening her hunched body, she remained frozen, then painfully turned only her eyes and screamed. "Kyaah!" His eyes were wide open but unfocused. The handle of a dagger dangled from the back of Grand Duke Letters' neck as he collapsed beside the desk.

The soldiers followed his order. Ferbien raised his eyebrows at the words that came from the woman's mouth once she could breathe freely. "Why, why are you here......" The prisoner's gaze was fixed on the face of the man who had been speaking with him until now. Though she was on her knees, her desperate writhing to get away from him in any direction was pitiable. Ferbien asked the man. "You know each other? Well, you are from Treven after all." "I know her all too well. Your Highness, might…

"William Winston seems to have been stupider than I thought. If he was going to side with Letters, he should have taken all the latest confidential information his father had collected, why did he take less than half?" Izer picked up his teacup and replied. "I suppose he died before he had time to tell his son everything." "There were a lot of ominous rumors going around at that time." Three years after Marcotti Berienne's suicide, on the same day, Colin Winston, who had been the Minister of…

The mansion doors were tightly shut. An even deeper silence than when the previous duchess was alive blanketed the estate. Few people wanted to set foot in a place shadowed by death that had struck repeatedly in less than half a year. However, despite the unsettling atmosphere, there were always people who needed money. A young woman in a plain dress crossed the garden threshold with a very nervous expression. The sharp-featured head maid guided her inside. "Wait in the reception room and…

Side Story Chapter 6 Selvia opened her eyes, blinded by the light, and stretched while fixing her disheveled hair. "Sleep a little more." "I feel like I'm always oversleeping because of you." "That's why I told the maids not to come in." "We're sleeping too much." "We don't have any schedules today anyway." "But I need to go on a picnic with Calred." "He'll be busy playing with…-

Side Story Chapter 3 "Your Majesty, it's me." Ratius's hand stopped while reading the newspaper. He slowly closed and opened his eyes at Selvia's voice, trying to grasp reality. "Selvia?" "May I come in?" "Of course." He immediately rose from his chair and neatly buttoned his shirt. Only after checking his unruffled appearance in the mirror did he open the door. "What brings you…
