Of course, the thought of paying 400,000 gold made my knees tremble, but I maintained a haughty expression, as if nothing had happened. I could hear people murmuring about my sudden participation. ‘Haa, Adeye.’ ‘Damn, it’s over.’ ‘It’s clear that Adeye came after this.’ Thanks to Doctor Kim’s carefully built reputation, it seemed like I would be able to get my hands on the diamond without any competition. Gollum 1, the strongest competitor, glared at me and grumbled, but he…- 296.0 K • Ongoing
- At first glance, it might look like the Emperor had sacrificed himself for the sake of the nation, but the data Doctor Kim gave me told a different story. The Emperor had created the Eye of Hell even though he already knew it could endanger the divine beast. ‘Why on earth would he do that?’ ‘Because he was an idiot.’ ‘How much of an idiot are we talking about?’ ‘Hopelessly stupid.’ But he was still an emperor who ruled an entire continent. I frowned, but, as if it were…

- Mo guided me to the room with the secret passage. But they couldn’t have let just anyone enter a room with a secret passage. Clack, clack. Of course, the door was locked. But I didn’t have time to pick it. The top-class pervert was already catching up to me. “Luuu~” Ugh. I gagged even while running. Damn it, was there really no way to get rid of that lunatic? Mo gave a useless answer. ‘Shut up, Mo.’ Are you mocking me ? My situation was too urgent to argue. I had…

- “I see the Grand Duke Kun has come to mind.” “How did you know?” I asked with my eyes, and Solongo nodded. “When the master occasionally curse alone, it’s usually because of that man. But Lord Lu, shouldn’t you start changing your attitude? Now that you know that the man is Grand Duke Kun.” I know. I know it well in my head. So I should approach it rationally, but my emotions won’t follow. If I saw him again, I would instinctively rush and grab him by the collar. But he was…

- “Torida, her partner, won’t let go easily. From what I've heard, it seems like he's acquired all of the Owick family's fortune.” "Huh," Doctor Kim snorted again. “I can deal with anyone who fusses over this kind of pittance with just one toe.” Impressed by her nouveau riche moment, I scooped up a bowl of dongchimi soup and took a sip. The richness of the butter washed away immediately. "Yes, make Baron Owick grow the crops you want and recover quickly. That way, you won't collapse…

- “Do I need to know?” Rick couldn’t answer yes. Then again, Tairok was the type who paid no attention to anyone, no matter how conspicuous they were. The Tairok Rick knew had been the envy of everyone since his student days, yet he himself seemed oblivious to those around him. “But he changed like that. Anyone seeing him would think he’s a different person.” Rick’s casual remark made Tairok’s hand pause. “Your Grace?” “What about the investigation into Adeye…

- She flinched, her eyes widening, and turned to look at me properly for the first time. Of course, it was only for a moment. “Why, why are you doing this…” “I’m really sorry. You didn’t even want to tell me your name, and I brought you here without even knowing that. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” As I apologized her with both hands, her confusion grew. “P-p-please don’t do that. It’s not…” “It is. You don’t even tell me your name. You must hate me so much to do that.…

- I tilted my head, munching on the vegetables in the soup that came with the bread. It was called soup, but it tasted refreshing, just like water kimchi. “It seems there was a sudden change in schedule. I heard that the Grand Duke’s distant relative, Zarayal Brons, was making his social debut and the Duke was escorting him to the party.” What? I was about to drink the entire bowl of water kimchi, but then I stopped. “Grand Duke Kun? Grand Duke Kun attended that party…

- A strange spark seemed to spread across his unpleasant golden eyes. At first glance, it almost seemed like admiration, but what did it matter whether that bastard’s eyes sparkled or darkened? I barely managed to get up and charged at him again. He’d definitely try to kick me like before. I’m waiting for for that moment. I threw myself at him and clung to his long leg. I felt him hesitate for a second, and then I heard an annoyed curse above my head. “Ha, damn.” Yeah, of course…

- The red eyes were as eerie as blood. Only then could I take in the creature’s full form. Every non-human being I’d seen until now had been half-transparent and shapeless, but this one was different. It had a solid, distinct body. It was a mountain goat. Except it had four horns. Two of them rose high like pillars. The tips split like branches, reminding me of a stag’s antlers. The horns reached so high they pierced the ceiling, their tops unseen. But whether it had four horns or ten…
