GMLS Ch 10
It was a dream of being tossed around in a small, enclosed chest. Loaded onto a freight wagon, the chest jolted violently. My whole body was paralyzed, unable to move an inch. The body that had moved freely just that afternoon had stiffened like wax. It was an unspeakably terrible feeling, as if a vibrant soul was trapped in a corpse. The damn dream was long, too. Nothing changed; I was still inside that crate-like mother-of-pearl chest. I spewed all sorts of curses. I squeezed my eyes shut. I…-

GMLS Ch 9
It was already well known that the Emperor's condition was not good. However, by taking all sorts of precious and rare medicines and keeping the top ten physicians in the country by his side, he was barely prolonging a life that should have ended. He had already lived for too long. With his weakened body, it would not be strange if his life ended tomorrow. Currently, there were a total of three princes residing in the Imperial Palace, aside from the Crown Prince. The 2nd Prince Simuk, the 3rd Prince…-

GMLS Ch 8
I waited for the 5th Prince to wet his throat and then asked. “Your Highness, there is something I would like to ask.” “What is it?” “After overlooking your impudence until now, there seems to be no end to it. Do you truly wish to be punished?” “If you do not wish to answer, I will not ask again.” He paused. The empty teacup hit the table with a sharp, irritated thak. I remained silent. A long while later, he spoke as if sighing. “It is Muryun…-

The coughing had certainly subsided. Now, it was just the occasional habitual clearing of his throat. It really was because of me. Reproaching myself, I resolved to speak less from now on, but then the 5th Prince spoke to me. “Did you suddenly become a mute who’s eaten honey?” “Pardon?” “You were chattering away just fine until now, so why the sudden change of heart?” Is that strange? I tilted my head, then thought it might be. The psychology of a tavern keeper who becomes…-

GMLS Ch 6
The place we arrived at was the garden where I did my morning training, and it was also the spot where the window of the 5th Prince's quarters was visible. The 5th Prince, standing in a secluded spot, turned to look at me. “What in the world are you trying to do?” “Pardon?” “It seems you won't understand unless I say it directly, so I'll just ask you outright. What is your purpose for approaching me? For what reason have you appointed yourself as my Captain of the Guard?” “Did I…-

GMLS Ch 5
I moved the side dishes onto the table one by one. I set down the spoon and chopsticks neatly as well. After finishing, I naturally stood in attendance beside him. The 5th Prince let out a ‘Heh-’ sound, as if in disbelief. It was the first time I had heard his voice since coming here. It, too, was no different from my memory. ‘After you finish the rice gruel, you must take your medicine.’ ‘If you eat well, I will give you a yakgwa. Or do you prefer yeot?’ ‘That’s right. There you…-

GMLS Ch 4
Yeo Yullyeong led me to the marketplace. After walking for some time, he stopped at a place where a group of ruffians was gathered. Don't tell me he's going to throw me into that pack of ruffians. Even if I were thrown in with both hands tied, that lot wouldn't even be a proper post-meal workout. As I narrowed my eyes, Yeo Yullyeong gestured towards the ruffians with his chin. “Look closely.” As he said, I looked closely. They were beating someone to death. It was a young boy, still of a…-

GMLS Ch 1
That was the year I turned fifteen. It was also the last year of the great famine. People who had starved for ten days begged for food, and emaciated bodies like dry firewood were kicked underfoot. Our family’s fortunes, which couldn't be called affluent but were never particularly lacking, also began to decline. The last of the last farmland we had held onto was passed to the richest man in the capital. A few days after that, my second older brother, who had a bad leg, died. It was a sudden…-

TDAA Ch 23
One of the knights, having received his gauntlet, muttered his impression blankly, and the others, buzzing with excitement, were about to rush towards Eorzen. Stopping them with a single raised finger, Eorzen waved his hand, pushing them back. The knights waited at a slight distance, like obedient dogs who had been told to stay. "Sizool gave me a rough overview. Nathaniel is in this city." "Yes, Captain. Those bastards have been targeting beastmen soldiers for a while now. It seems they weren't…-

However, Eorzen, whom Siol eagerly awaited, did not return that day, nor the next. "...." "Sizool?" "Yes?!" Siol, lost in thought, jumped in surprise. Siol and Asios were out distributing keyrings to the beastmen. He had a mountain of things to discuss with Eorzen, but he hadn't returned to the city the day before yesterday, nor yesterday. Ryufen acted nonchalant, saying nothing could have happened to a dragon, but Siol couldn't hide his growing worry. How could anyone guarantee that…-
