TYND 40
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 “Rothy?” “The child’s name is Rothy... could it be...” When they heard the name ‘Rothy’, Harrié and the rest of the mages exchanged glances, murmuring restlessly among themselves. Chungnip then asked, “Why? What’s wrong with it?” “I’ll explain later.” Harrié replied, though his gaze stayed fixed on Rothy, wide-eyed, like a scholar who’d just stumbled upon a rare, mythical creature. Theon sharply eyed the mages before turning back…-

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…-

TYND 38
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…-

TL: Motokare “Rothy. You said before that you knew how to destroy bridges. Did you use that spell during the war?” “......!” “And not just once or twice... you were active throughout the war. Isn't that right?” Rothy avoided answering, his green eyes welling up. His reaction was as good as an answer. “How on earth did he do it without us knowing...? Your Grace, did you ever sense the presence of an archmage like Rothy?” “Never.” “Neither did I. An archmage…-

TL: Motokare Chungnip rushed past the frozen Theon. “Rothy! Good heavens, what’s wrong?!” “I’m sorry. This happened because of my mistake...” “What’re you saying?! What mistake? Get up now!” He lifted Rothy and sat him in a chair. Scree, screee! The weasel tugged at Chungnip’s robe, refusing to let go. The mage ended up busying himself trying to comfort both Rothy and the weasel. “I messed up...” The faint voice trailed off again before Theon…-

TYND 35
TL: Motokare Strange presences were detected in the forest where Rothy had gone to play. Theon, who’d been in the middle of trade discussion with the lords from other territories, rushed out without an explanation. When he arrived at where the aura was detected, he found two black-clad corpses with their heads blown off, and one black-clad man barely alive with all limbs severed. Beside them, Aeruhen sat on the ground, breathing heavily, while Rothy...... “Theon...” He didn’t…-

TL: Motokare “Are you looking down on me right now? What, you don’t believe me when I say I’m an Aura Consumer?” Aeruhen’s sharp tone made Rothy flinch. If he refused any further, it’d hurt Aeruhen’s pride and damage their relationship. “No, I believe you. Let’s go.” “Should’ve just said that from the start.” Aeruhen pouted sulkily and strode ahead. Rothy decided there and then he’d tell Theon everything tonight, but soon changed his mind. Theon…-

TL: Motokare “You’re still awake.” “I’m not sleepy. Are you sleepy, Theon? Very tired?” “I’m fine.” He’d felt tired earlier, but that feeling had vanished completely. “Go wash up. I’ve sprinkled flower petals in the bath.” The estate had its own bathhouse, but Theon disliked being attended to while bathing, so he always used the bathroom adjoining his bedroom. The maids usually prepared his bath with scattered petals, and Rothy had copied…-

TL: Motokare Theon patted Rothy's small, trembling back with his large hand. "Rothy. Aeruhen was testing you. He has no intention of selling your weasel." “......” "I've heard since my return that our Falsen heir’s quite the animal rights activist." "What activist? I'm not that extreme!" Aeruhen shouted, his face flushed red. Theon briefly explained about Aeruhen to the puzzled Rothy. Aeruhen was a lad who loved animals so much that he wouldn't even participate in the hunting…-
