TYND 25
TL: Motokare Chungnip burst into loud laughter at the sight of Rothy fussing over a helpless-looking Theon, trying to comfort him. The child shot him a reproachful glare, then grabbed Theon’s hand with a small whine, his green eyes gazing up with pure innocence. Theon’s cheek twitched—not from anger, but from an unfamiliar, inexplicable emotion. It burst like a dam, giving him no time to react or contain it. It was like trying to fill a tiny cup under a roaring waterfall:…-

TL: Motokare “Why don’t you go and exercise instead of butting in?” Zey glared at Xeon, who remained unfazed, striking various poses to show off his muscles like a peacock flaunting its feathers. “What do you think? Aren’t my muscles well defined? Impressive, huh?” “Whoa, it’s incredible. You’re so muscular.” Screeeee. Both boy and weasel wore identical expressions of awe, their eyes fixed on Xeon in fascination. Theon felt an involuntary tug at the…-

Emperor Dierm rose from his seat, weariness marked his face as he looked down at Harrié. “That’s enough for now. Focus on deciphering the research journal. There might be records of magic stone implantation experiments that don’t require sacrificing children. If there are, I’ll provide support so generous it might overwhelm you.” “......” “Phillip, who’s next?” “It’s Viscount Ossonthay, Your Imperial Majesty.” Count Phillip, the emperor’s chief…-

It wasn’t often that Chungnip, usually soft-spoken and warm smiles, raised his voice. His sudden outburst startled Zey and Xeon, who rushed to calm him, while the weasel bristled and hissed in protest. Rothy was terrified—he bit his lower lip so hard it began to bleed. Theon stepped in, placing an arm between them, pushing Chungnip away before pulling Rothy into his arms. The child clung to him like a lifeline, burying his face into the solid curve of Theon’s…-

“We understand the lord’s decision and are patiently waiting our turn, but it's simply unbearable. It’s too inconvenient and unsafe—we can’t live like this. Even though it’s the dead of winter right now, we’re creeping across ice that could break at any moment. If anyone dares to walk a little faster, they’ll end up falling and calling for me. I’ll collapse from exhaustion at this rate. Even I took a tumble while making a house call! Our village’s full of elderly like me. If this keeps…-

“I’ll share a room with Rothy, the rest of you, sort yourselves out.” Theon declared. “Yes, Leader.” “The end room’s the most spacious, Leader,” offered the attendant who’d earlier inspected the lodgings. With Rothy in his arms, Theon strode purposefully toward the end room. The tidy space was clearly prepared with care. The warmth inside hinted at the innkeeper’s respect for the returning soldiers—running the heating so thoroughly must’ve been…-

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…-
