The carriage shook violently, causing me to open my eyes. It wasn't an environment conducive to sleeping well, so I had merely closed my eyes briefly, but somehow it felt like I had been dreaming for a very long time. With a drowsy mind, I blinked my eyes slowly. ......I wish I could have dreamed a little longer. I couldn't remember what the dream was about, but the lingering feeling remained. For some time now, whenever I fell asleep in uncomfortable surroundings, I often had such dreams. Dreams…-

Quido quietly watched Beitram as he sat down in the chair, exhaling roughly. His lord was not in a good mood right now. Folluk, who had visited with plenty of gifts disguised as New Year's greetings, had done nothing but complain. If anyone wondered what greed was, they need only look at Folluk Castor. He was the embodiment of greed itself. They had placed him at the head of the merchant group thinking he would be easy to manipulate like a puppet, since all he had was flowery speech. But Folluk was…

She was sick for a whole day. Fever spread throughout her body, making it impossible to move. Only the faces of Maya, who wiped her face with a cold towel, and Kirhin, who sat by the bed holding her hand, came to mind intermittently. Having been asleep continuously except for the times when Maya fed her soup, she finally regained consciousness the next day. Her body felt languid but not to the point where she couldn't move. "What?" She turned her head at Maya's words as she was brushing her hair.…

After finishing the inspection of goods to be loaded onto the dock, Kirhin sent the carriage away and stretched out. It was already getting close to evening. He was incredibly hungry. He wasn't actually the type of person who diligently performed tasks, but he was gradually getting used to it. Most of it was due to Lars's stern gaze, but Lucienne also played a part. Watching the once-ignorant girl make remarkable progress from the sidelines made him feel like he couldn't just remain as he…

“Lucy! Lucy!” Kirhin dismounted his horse urgently, throwing the reins aside as he rushed into the mansion. Brook, his face flustered, came out to meet him. “What on earth is going on? Where’s Lucy?” “She’s in the drawing room.” “What do you mean she’s involved?” “A maid said she overheard Miss arguing with Laurel before she fell. The maid who found Laurel also saw the hem of a dress disappearing hastily from the terrace. It was the green dress that Miss is wearing…

Baron silently watched Arkle Cayenne and Lize, who remained tightly embraced with no sign of letting go. '......' He thought seeing Lize in another man's arms would be painful, but for some reason, he found himself smiling. He turned away. Now he seemed to understand. The girl who had congratulated him on becoming a holy knight was truly gone. The Lize standing there was a different person with her own life. After looking at her face one more time, he quietly left the room. At that…-

"You're going to open my power with a ritual technique?" Heinrich nodded at Lize's question. "I haven't told you, but I've been conducting research all this time. A way for the human body you possess to fully accept the goddess's power." Heinrich calmly explained and subtly added, as if seeking praise. "To make you happy." "Hmm......" Lize, who seemed lost in thought, looked at Heinrich. "So if we perform this ritual, I can use my original power even with this body?" "That's…

The next morning, I sat across from Heinrich for breakfast. "Now that I see you eating well, I guess you don't find my face disgusting anymore? I'm glad I didn't have to wear a mask." As I calmly chewed my food, Heinrich made a sly joke. I looked at him with a slightly crooked gaze for a moment before averting my eyes. "......I'm not particularly used to it. I'm just hungry." My concept was a tsundere girl going through a denial phase of falling for someone. I suppressed my inner desire…

"We'll use mental control techniques on Heinrich in reverse." When Marvin heard those words, he was skeptical at first. "B-But to do that......" "I know. You said the target needs to have strong affection and trust toward the user, right?" "That's right......" A method to make that crazy prince think of me that way.... It was an idea I came up with after getting a hint from Marvin's words. "I'm going to gaslight him." "Pardon?" Marvin looked puzzled, not knowing the meaning of…

"Ah, damn it...." Flustered, Lize hurriedly picked it up and tried to hide it. "......" Heinrich silently looked at what she had picked up. An old ring with a purple gemstone. "You managed to find that, I see." When he smiled and spoke, Lize snapped back. "It wasn't difficult to find? It doesn't seem like such an important item." Heinrich nodded readily while maintaining his smile. "Well... perhaps not." "So, what is this? Were you trying to bribe me? Sorry, but I'm not into this…
