TL: Motokare “Uhm... Is the meeting over?” “Yes.” “I couldn’t focus... I’m sorry.” “It’s fine.” Theon picked Rothy up effortlessly and walked out of the meeting room. Two flights of stairs later, they stepped onto the deck. Cool air touched their skin along with the fresh scent unique to the sea. Theon instinctively took a deep breath, filling his lungs with the fresh air. It felt cleansing. The sea at sunset was quiet except for occasional cries of seabirds in the…-

“Since sirens are mainly active during summer, we always send out recon teams around this time. This year, the sudden shift from cold to warm seems to have made them confused. They were wounds on the corpse that sirens normally wouldn’t cause.” Sirens typically inhabit the deep sea but would come closer to the coast when the weather turned warm. A few days ago, a siren attack had resulted in five casualties, leaving one dead—a young guard who was at the Aura Consumer stage. Because of that, the…-

TL: Motokare “Theon! You put the sun-moon-stars outfit on Chi-chi. Isn’t it cute? I thought it was cute too. It suits Chi-chi so well.” “Yes. That robe suits you too. You look cute.” “Thanks. Hey, Theon, don’t you have any green or blue cloaks? Are all your cloaks always black?” “I’ve a ceremonial cloak as white as your hair.” “But we can’t go to Siren’s Sea in a ceremonial cloak...” “I’ve a red one too.” “Red cloaks are for when something bad…-

TL: Motokare Ken Bane had attempted to kidnap Rothy several times. Even after his first failure, he’d persistently sent mercenaries and assassins, but after that initial attempt, none had even managed to get close. —Are you saying this knowing full well my current situation? Things here aren’t like your empire. Just trying to stabilise my royal authority alone is— “Yes, which is exactly why I’m bringing it up. I must admit, I regret tossing bait at someone so preoccupied with…-

TYND 43
Rothy was still young, so it made sense for him to accept the marriage and the title of archduchess for now. But once he became an adult, he might grow to resent being bound to a man fourteen years older. Rothy might even blame him, asking if this was the only way to protect him from PLEIN. Unfortunately for him, Theon had no intention of letting him go. Everyone—the emperor, PLEIN, his own subordinates—they were all mistaken. They believed this marriage was nothing more than a guardianship contract…-

Chungnip and Count Hagen, who’d been waiting outside, went in. Soon after, a shocked cry rang out, “What? That's impossible!” Theon’s senses snapped to high alert, his body tensing as he scanned the shadows of the night-filled city, convinced someone hidden there was targeting Rothy. But it was just paranoia—the city lay quiet and safe. “Theon... What’s wrong? Are you fine? Did I do something wrong? The sensitive Rothy noticed something off about Theon’s state and…-

Theon hadn’t been carrying Rothy around from the start. He’d let him stand on his own and greet the nobles properly. But once, while rushing between events, Rothy had tripped while scrambling to keep up. After that, Theon started carrying him, and now he refused to put him down. “I’ll ask Rothy directly. Rothy—” “But I like being carried by Theon.” Rothy swung his small, polished shoes and nuzzled his head against Theon’s shoulder, mussing the hair Ultje had…-

TL: Motokare House Falsen, like all Northerners, had a long tradition of hunting—that of course, took place deep in the forests. But unlike forests located in the central and southern parts of the continent, northern woods were treacherous, as they were places where demonic fiends lurked. Because of that, families living in the north kept hunting dogs brave enough to face those fiends, and the Falsens were no exception. The hunting dogs bred by House Falsen were a breed called…-

TL: Motokare After that, his master disciplined him many times. His master grew increasingly irritable, and he found himself being scolded more often. Those days remained vivid in his memory. Even now, after the war had ended. I can't let them find out. The world wouldn't end now. All the fiends had retreated. But still, they couldn't find out. They'll think I betrayed them. They'll feel betrayed and hate me. I want to stay close to Theon... The mindset his master had nailed into him…-

TL: Motokare “Even after erasing some of the spells from memory, you’re still having a fever.” “That’s just how I am.” Theon sat Rothy on the bed and pulled up a backless stool for himself. “In a week, His Imperial Majesty will announce that Yolone Sirin had a disciple.” “Is that... me?” “Yes. We’ll keep the fact that you’re a living magic stone hidden, but we decided to reveal your existence to the world. This is needed so I can protect you…-
