RHH | Chapter 1.7
The next morning, Leehwan headed to the room where Lucien had stayed. Despite the early hour, Lucien, who was about to leave Marslin, had already finished preparing for his journey. Leehwan escorted Lucien to the courtyard. A gentle touch rested on rough fingers. A strong pulse was felt where they touched. Leehwan maintained a calm expression. Upon reaching the courtyard, knights ready to depart were already there. Lucien approached an elegant white horse. Contrary to his usual preference for…-

RHH | Chapter 1.6
He once discussed this with Lucien, who had called it reverence. Knowing that fear was included in the concept of reverence made it a fitting description. Lost in thought, Leehwan arrived at the guest quarters. As the servant quickly tried to leave after completing his task, Leehwan stopped him. When Leehwan stated his request, the servant’s eyes widened. “…What did you say?” It wasn’t that he couldn’t hear; the servant just couldn’t believe his ears. Leehwan repeated his request…-

RHH | Chapter 1.5
His reaction was instinctive. Leehwan came to his senses only after smacking Absalom’s hand away. The red mark on the white back of his hand was stark. Leehwan struggled to open his stiff mouth to apologize. “I’m sorry.” “…No, it’s my fault for getting too close suddenly.” Absalom’s eyes twisted as if he was about to cry. Leehwan forcibly swallowed the hatred that surged up suddenly. Absalom had confessed last winter. Since he had said he liked him since last year, he must be…-

RHH | Chapter 1.4
Pulling out clothes suitable for sneaking from underneath his uniform, Leehwan quickly changed. However, as he was about to leave, the sword hanging loosely at his left hip bothered him. Deiustellum, a sword flashing gloriously under the sun with gold and rubies. The Imperial had promoted it as a weapon of the gods. It was the perfect combination to stir up the crowd along with the Knight of Salvation. Even those who did not know Leehwan’s face knew who the owner of Deiustellum was. After wrapping the…-

RHH | Chapter 1.3
Through blurred vision, Leehwan watched as the judge trembled in fury while pronouncing his sentence. Right then and there, Leehwan lost both of his arms. Before the blood could even stop gushing, a scorching-hot iron was pressed against the severed wounds. As he writhed in agony, the judge spoke. “Death would be the rightful punishment. But in light of your past achievements, we will grant you mercy.” Mercy. Was this what they called mercy? Every step back to the underground prison was…-

RHH | Chapter 1.2
Recalling that face, Leehwan studied Absalom closely. Maybe it was just his imagination, but he looked even paler than before. “Your complexion doesn’t look good. Are you sick?” At that, Absalom laughed. It was the same kind of laughter as before. “That should be my line, Leehwan. Do you even know what your own face looks like right now?” Leehwan instinctively touched his face. His rough skin met his fingertips. If Lucien saw him, he probably wouldn’t be pleased—that was what…-

RHH | Chapter 1.1
The hound bit the leash. Tall, with a neat face, a friendly personality, and even a diligent nature—at eighteen years old, Sung Leehwan was the kind of boy who could probably do well anywhere. But he never imagined that “anywhere” would include another world. If he had known, he would have at least read the fantasy novels his friend had recommended. On the first day of his arrival, Leehwan regretted spending his past years solely on studying. “Sometimes, things like this happen. They’re…-

RHH | Chapter 2.3
Bernard took off his glove and slapped Lucien’s cheek with it. It was a challenge to a duel, and refusing would brand him a coward. But Lucien couldn’t react. Not because he didn’t know how to handle a weapon. This had happened several times before. But he couldn’t tell Leehwan. He was afraid of the criticism and repercussions that would fall on him if it was known that Iella’s knight was acting privately. Having his only confidant, Wibaeng, act as a proxy was also problematic—whether he…-
