I looked at his face, but we weren’t close enough for me to ask him anything. But what he said about a ‘domain’ brought one thing to mind, the Forest of Crimson Waves. “What reason would I have to go to a non-human’s domain?” “You never know. You might get lured away by a voice.” There’s nothing even remotely tempting about that voice. I was about to protest but decided to change the subject. “So, is that why you took my side? To check if I was lured?” “I didn’t…- 296.0 K • Ongoing
- “Would a gift from family ever carry a hidden motive?” By family, she meant the Ma Trading Company? Why, of all times, would the Ma Company give something identical to the Demon King’s Tear right now? Several questions flashed through my head. At that moment, the thief who had stayed silent all along, Ariona, finally spoke. “It’s a fake gem. It has little value.” He looked calm now, maybe because the others had given him time to compose himself. His eyes rested on me with…

- I swallowed my embarrassment and shrugged my shoulders. “I like watching.” “Really?” “Yes.” “Then get out first. I’m not interested in the hunting contest.” No, you have to attend. “How can I leave alone and break our loyalty?” “When did Adeye ever keep loyalty to Kun?” “From now on.” I answered boldly and smiled. “Do you want to come out with me?” “For now, yes.” “I want to see with my own eyes that you return home and recover…

- Thud. With a dull sound, Torida, who had been kneeling, fell to the floor. He had already been kicked several times, but he stood up like a toy and prostrated flat on his stomach again. “I’ll find her. I’m sure I can find her, Lord Zav. They said there’s an entrance to the Forest of Crimson Waves within the Owick house. Just give me a little more time...” “My subordinates have already inspected the interior of the mansion. Are you sure it’s that estate? Not buried under some garden…

- “He got hurt in the head, which matters more than his leg. He lost your memory, so he fear meeting strangers.” “I don’t seem like an unfamiliar presence that would make him uncomfortable. If I did, all those devotees who have never seen me wouldn’t come to see me.” Then meet the people who want to see you. Solongo bowed with an apologetic look that didn’t match her thoughts. “Lord Lu faced a monster not long ago and survived by a miracle. I ask for your generous understanding,…

- “Inside each noble house where the divine beast’s energy is strong.” “…..Ah.” “It’s useless in Kun, where the divine beings have disappeared.” But Rick’s disappointment was palpable. Tairok added dryly, Rick’s eyes widening slightly. “And the Central Temple.” “If it’s the Central Tempe… that’s great! I can find it right away, right? Of course, it’s a large area, but it still narrows the scope. It would be nice to have a compass or something to help find the…

- “Right. And if the traitor is desperate to please Tairok, they will definitely try to get his hands on this gem and offer it to him.” Then the traitor will show up at the charity auction. I clenched my fist and nodded. “I’ll go.” “Good. Go and see for yourself who ends up with the cursed gem.” “Yes, cursed… what?” “They say the gem has a magical power that draws people to it, but those who touch it become miserable. Well, it’s nothing to worry about.” “Well,…

- “As if that could happen.” I sighed and ordered the gem expert. “If you’re done verifying it, put it down.” “No, not yet…” “You said it’s genuine, right?” “Yes, but I think I should examine it with specialized tools.” Even as he spoke, his fingers kept caressing the gem, as if he couldn’t bear to let it go. Beside him, the priest’s hand twitched, he too, was tempted to touch it too. Are you both some kind of Gollum, why are so obsessed with the…

- It took me all my willpower to not rush in and punch him. “Why did you even come here when there aren’t any monsters?” Then, pretending to look around, I tried to figure out a way to escape. Then, when there was no answer, I thought it was strange and looked at him, only to meet his cold eyes. “To see you.” “What? Me? Why?” “Why else? To repay the debt.” Tairok spoke, placing one hand on his thigh. His posture was awkward, his hand positioned precariously. It a…

- “…I got it back after almost dying.” “Ah” the guy said with a grin on his face. “Then you better die once more. That’s the only way you’ll get your nerve back.” It must have been because I rushed at him before. I barely held back the urge to throw myself at him again without fear. Even if it hurt my pride, what could I do? He was the man who would save our world. “I did it because I didn’t know who you were.” I mumbled an excuse. “Even if you knew, you’d…
