A strange shape was drawn on the back of the paper. 'Is it a cactus? It also looks like a cross....' It was a shape with long arm-like appendages on both sides of a round body. At the top of the shape, several fan-shaped hair-like strands were attached. "This is the view of the person who stole the holy grail, realized through a 'coincidental' inspiration. Although due to it being a soul from a hundred years ago... no, due to some difficulties, we couldn't confirm the exact shape, but this is what…-

"Really?!" I looked at Martha with wide eyes. As expected, gathering the most talented individuals in the empire led to quick progress. "What do we need to do?" "Mages from the magic tower have come in person. They're in the reception room. It would be best to ask them directly." Martha, who spoke gently, glared at the interrogation room door again with a chilling atmosphere. "As you know, I have work to do now." "Haha... Then I'll go meet the mages." Martha nodded, brushed her hair…

Creeak- When I opened the door, Baron, who had been hanging his head low, looked at me. He was restrained with shackles on the wall binding both wrists, and chains on his ankles as well. "I won't do anything harsh, so relax." "......" "More precisely, I can't do anything harsh." I added as if talking to myself, then stood facing Baron. Then, tilting my head, I asked. "Is 'holy knight' supposed to have a different meaning in this country?" "What...?" "As far as I know, holy…

The next day. Without having to wait, a reply came immediately. 'I knew it.' I was certain this person wouldn't delay. I opened the reply with a grin. The reply was exactly as I had expected. [Miss Lize. You're sending me a compilation about Red Mask and ten other monsters...! When I received your letter, I thought I was dreaming.... I don't know if I deserve such a precious gift. But if you're willing to give it to me... I absolutely, definitely want to receive it! Thank you so much,…

I don't know how long I slept without being conscious. When I opened my eyes, the sun was setting outside the window. 'Hmm... I think it was morning before I fell asleep.' I'm pretty sure I earnestly asked Arkle to wake me up.... 'Wait, the movie?!' That's when I felt my mind suddenly snap to attention. I jumped out of bed, hastily threw on an outer garment, and headed straight for Arkle's office. "Arkle! Why didn't you wake me up! How was the movie premiere?" "You're…

"To Arkle's eyes, I must have looked like a god who stopped his pain... I completely understand." She would have felt the same. 'It's entirely possible to mistake that wonder for love.' Arkle, who had been quietly listening to her words, slowly opened his mouth. "You're certainly right about that. Every time you reached out your hand to calm my magical resonance... I thought, so this is the face of a god." He muttered, laughing softly as if finding his own thoughts amusing. "And I don't…

"Huh...?" A foolish sound escaped her lips without her realizing it. Since it was a completely unexpected response, she was honestly a little, no, very flustered. In contrast, Arkle opened his mouth again, looking at her without any change in expression. "I think I love you." "...oh, of course I also love you, Arkle...!" It was at that moment when she tried to match his words, thinking he was acting to get out of this situation. Arkle smiled calmly. "It's alright. You don't need to…

She slowly blinked her eyes. 'Prove that Arkle and I are in love...?' She almost asked if he wanted to see them engaging in intimate skinship. 'No, he's not like me.... He probably didn't ask because he wants to see that.' With an innocent face, she spoke as if wronged. "A facade? Arkle and I became husband and wife because we truly love each other.... I couldn't even imagine doing something so wicked with sacred marriage......" Heinrich nodded as if he understood. With an apologetic…

The emperor must have found my actions mysterious, as he stood at a distance watching me and occasionally muttering, "It seems to be a professional technique......" There were once or twice when I nearly failed to hold back my laughter, but I desperately bit the tender flesh inside my mouth to maintain a solemn expression. And after a while. "It's done......" When I spoke while pressing my forehead with my sleeve as if exhausted, the emperor approached, saying, "Is that so?" I smiled as…

"According to him, your rightful fiancé is... himself." Arkle clenched his trembling fist with a cold gaze. "Therefore, this marriage is invalid......" Listening to Arkle's words with a dumbfounded expression, I sighed while running a hand down my face. "Haah... what is this now." Just when I thought I could rest comfortably for a moment, why wouldn't they give me even a moment to close my eyes? With my hand on my forehead, I asked Arkle. "How far has this news spread?"
