Arkle's white silk shirt gleamed softly in the moonlight. For his lower half, he wore pants that clearly revealed the contours of his legs, and even from a distance, one could tell his lower body was excellently trained. Moreover, his black hair fluttered whenever he moved... everything seemed to be happening in slow motion. Perhaps that's why he appeared to be dancing. Thud—!! A dull sound of something falling brought me back to my senses. Looking closely, one of the wooden dummies set…

"Allenheim still believes you were kidnapped." 'Wasn't I actually kidnapped?' The thought crossed my mind, but I didn't voice it and instead listened attentively to Martha. "There's no need to deliberately foster hostility toward House Cayenne. I think it's better to make the announcement before they cause any trouble. What do you think?" "Hmm." I thought for a moment. 'She's definitely right.' At this rate, not only Allenheim but other nobles would develop negative impressions of…

"The beast you brought has opened its eyes," Sylvia reported. I laughed, "Haha, Sylvia. Even so, calling him a beast... though he did act like one." Hearing this, Sylvia's expression grew even colder. She spoke while visibly suppressing her anger. "From what I've heard about his actions, he's no different from a beast. They say he caused a commotion as soon as he woke up. Though he can't use black magic because of the restraints with barriers, he seems quite violent." "Hmm... is that so? I…

Of course, Raku's face turned pale as he obviously hadn't taken out any insurance. "There's no way he could have found this place...!" Watching Raku mutter to himself, I sneered. 'I left a gift for Arkle.' Seeing the video stone hanging around Arkle's neck as he walked out of the dust cloud, it seemed my gift had been properly delivered. 'I dropped the video stone before losing consciousness. With the video playing!' Fortunately, Raku was too focused on running away to notice it.…

"Are you feeling alright?" I silently looked at the passage through which the sorcerer had entered. 'It's not blocked... if I pretend to accidentally make a loud noise.' Just as I was thinking this, he spoke as if he had read my mind. "Screaming won't help. There's a special spell on the entrance of this place. No sound from here can be heard outside." "......" "Are you feeling better? Are you still uncomfortable?" The sorcerer asked, looking up at me. "Excuse me, what do you mean…

It seems my feeling that Arkle's gaze toward Khan was particularly eerie wasn't just a simple concern. "Lize, director... the final scene, I want to see too." "You do? Then let's monitor it." "......" As Khan approached me and lowered his head to see the video stone, I kept feeling a chilling gaze from far away. It was Arkle. "Would the assistant director like to come watch too?" When I asked soothingly, Arkle wordlessly strode over and wedged himself between Khan and…

Outside Kelston. The knight commander, who had been watching the town entrance from afar with a frown, exhaled a small sigh as if anxious. The day was gradually dawning. The townscape that had been hidden in darkness was also slowly revealed, but no matter how much he looked, there was no sign of his master. His subordinates also showed signs of unease. Their faces reflected a mixture of fear of the undead, worry for their master, and the burden of potential crisis. "What will you…

His voice was so resolute despite whispering that I stopped rummaging. '...I want to see too.' But Arkle pulled me deeper into his embrace. With my face buried against his firm chest, I could only understand the situation through Arkle's and the knights' voices. "Maintain formation. The lady's protection is priority—" I heard the sound of knights moving swiftly. After that, silence flowed without anyone speaking, which suggested they were in a standoff. "......" "......" I…

Michael straightened his back as he wiped the sweat flowing over his forehead. A cool breeze blew at just the right moment, bringing the now deeper scent of lisianthus to his nostrils after several seasons had passed. This spring, having come of age, he graduated from knight school with excellent grades and proudly passed the Imperial Knight Order's examination. He had obtained some vacation time before joining and intended to spend it with his sister after a long while. But what do you know, from the…

The warm southern territory was always surrounded by quiet, peaceful air. The pages of seasons turned slowly too. After the long summer, when one might start growing tired of the brilliance of sunlight filtering through green leaves and the freshness of the atmosphere, delicate colors would begin seeping in from the edge of the forest. Then, at some point, when it was fully colored in late autumn, the beautiful white castle would also be imbued with the gentle autumn hues, like the maple forest surrounding…
