Theon’s sharp gaze caught the goosebumps rising on Rothy’s thin, scarred wrist, exposed to the biting cold. The chill of the air was too harsh for bare skin to bear. Theon moved like the wind, quickly pulling Rothy’s coat back on him. “Stop teaching the kid weird things.” He said flatly. “Weird things? Your Grace, muscles are a virtue.” “Go get ready for departure.” “Your cleaning freak kicked me out, claiming I’m no help.” “Then go exercise or…-

Theon carefully lifted Rothy and settled him in before climbing aboard himself. As soon as the two were secure, the mounted knights spurred their horses into motion. With that, the Black Lion Knights were officially leaving the imperial capital. With Rothy in tow. “Those flagitious bastards...” “Master, they can hear you from this distance.” “I don’t care. Let them hear. They already know we’re watching them anyway.” From atop the imperial palace ramparts,…

“Bro, I’m sorry to say this, but if recovery’s possible in just half a year, then ask the people to endure for six more months. I know they’ve probably been stretched thin all this time, and honestly, it kills me to say this as the emperor. But you’re telling me they can’t fvcking hold on for six more bloody months when they’ve already lasted three years?!” Emperor Dierm’s polished tone slipped, his urgency evident as he paced back and forth like a restless, caged animal. Across from…

“I’m afraid to even ask if he knew them.” Chungnip approached Theon quietly, murmuring under his breath. He was right. Those thirty-two corpses could’ve been Rothy’s friends. Even if not friends, they might’ve been children whose faces he recognised. Looking at him, Theon noticed the faint tremor of his long, thick eyelashes. Watching him, Theon noticed the faint tremor in his long, thick eyelashes. Rothy had remained calm and detached throughout the ordeal, but now, curious about the…

TL: Motokare Did he have some strange dream? Harrié walked away, tired of waiting for an answer. If Yolone Sirin had created a barrier, only Theon could break it. The mages could work together on a removal spell, but—who knew—that might take days, months, or even years. I’ll just have him smash it if something suspicious appears. He'd rather not use brute force and damage the lab, but under the circumstances, he’d no choice. If Theon left today, even the emperor couldn't stop…

TL: Motokare “The kid seems to really like you, for some reason, so you’ll take care of him while I look into things. You’re staying at Chloé Palace, right? Good. It’s hard to get in and out of, so it’s the perfect place to keep him away from prying eyes.” And with that single command, the crown prince made Theon an unexpected guardian. Theon’s subordinates were fascinated. This was the most excitement they’d seen since the war ended. “It’s bizarre, isn’t it? A…

TL: Motokare When the Creator God, Seará, fashioned this world of Araxys, the other gods paid it little mind for they already had countless other worlds they enjoyed playing with. But the Dark God, Maton, was different. He focused on Araxys with such intensity that he even discarded the world he was playing with. One of the gods asked. “Maton, why’re you so interested in that small, immature world?” “Araxys is a world Seará created as a retreat. Though small and incomplete…

I hurriedly looked at Kasim in response to the mumbled words spoken in a raspy voice. He doesn't seem to want to talk at all! Ignoring my protesting look, Kasim, who must have anticipated Ethan's overflowing caution, deepened his smile. "Because I want to. I'm sorry to drag you along with my selfishness." "There are people like you everywhere..." Ethan mumbles softly and... if I didn't mishear him... clucks his tongue bitterly. It's not just dislike, it seems to be hostility. As…-

"Well, maybe she's starting to realize it was a mistake." "Is it really that common? Guys hitting on her?" "Not really from my perspective. Most of those who initially had a crush on Chloe quickly saw her as a promising future scientist once they saw her research." "That's impressive." But it's mostly university staff. Chloe really believes that if she suppresses her femininity, they'll take her research seriously. Getting distracted by these superficial people is an insult to her own…

It was just past two in the afternoon. Today, I was supposed to talk to Alan’s college friends, but there was still plenty of time before our meeting. Among the group of four, there was Chloe, the only girl, Victor, the slender one with orange hair, and Ethan, the tall one. Ethan’s schedule didn’t align with the other two, so I was supposed to speak with him separately. Kasim explained as we crossed the spacious entrance. "Chloe and Victor are both physics majors, but in different fields.…
