The beautiful voice was affectionate and warm. Of course, the words were incomprehensible until the very end, but strangely enough, that particular word kept coming to mind. Time. Then, I suddenly remembered when I climbed onto the rock to persuade the bear. After I said a certain something, it looked at me with warm eyes. ‘Seize the time.’ At that moment, I thought the bear simply liked those words. Now that I think about it, it looked like it was watching a…-

Knowing the future is a great gift, but the downside is the immense anxiety that comes with losing that gift. In Hoiga's case, that anxiety manifested itself in trembling hands. Thud, scritch. He had to write with a pen on paper, but his hands were shaking, so the pen kept slipping. If he pressed too hard, the ink would spill and ruin his writing. As he discarded the paper for the umpteenth time today, Hoiga sighed. Once the future was distorted, even the few futures he knew were now tainted with…

I tried to avoid contacting Doctor Kim unless it was for something serious. If I heard asking again, "Did you sleep together? Did you?", I’d honestly have no choice but to confess. But this time, it was serious. I actually succeeded in signing the contract, so it was worth a call. The timing was perfect since no one was around to bother me. Black Bear was training to use the divine beast’s power, and Tairok was busy training too, keeping his promise to accept that same power. Because of that, I…

His breath against my ear sent a shiver down my spine. I flinched but didn’t turn my head. Now that I actually faced him, something else came to mind even before the contract. What if his feelings were real? A question I tried so hard to ignore suddenly occurred to me. I solved it the way I always did. I just ignored it again. It wasn't the most important issue. But my mind's avoidance made my body move too. I tried to pull away from him, but he caught my arm. He turned me around and pulled me in…

“Ahhh!” Students riding griffins for flight training were scattered in every direction in an instant. “Crazy professor! He’s insane!” Lisa, who had forgotten every bit of saintly speech she once used, shouted in a furious voice as she fled from the griffin and flew right toward Yohan. Flap! Her griffin, seemingly agitated by the chaos, flapped its wings far too widely and wobbled in the air. “Ahh! Liri, calm down!” Seeing her sway so precariously, Yohan stroked the neck…-

A single communication device, no bigger than a child's head. The darker the color, the better the performance, and the one Doctor Kim was looking at now was black. That's why it could connect all the way to that distant Acorn Forest. But there was no response. She wondered if Black Bear had handled things well, and if Lu had understood her letter and was successfully coaxing Tairok. But what intrigued her most was their relationship. Lu boasted about how well he was doing, but it was…

Tairok's eyebrows twitched. He looked surprised to realize his offhand remark had hit the nail. Thanks to that, I didn't need to give a long explanation and got straight to the point. "But Mrs. Ekaf has a bit of a problem when she uses the power of the divine beast. Since it's her first time using the power of the divine beast, she doesn't know how. That's why she needs Your Grace’s help. If you could first accept Sarne divine beast’s power, and then find and teach her the method..." "No." The…

When the butler said it was good news, I was just reading Doctor Kim's letter that had arrived via the portal. The content was very simple. 'Ekaf will handle it.' Ekaf is Doctor Kim's alias, right? Why would she go out of her way to write that she'll handle it? I tilted my head. Besides, handle what? The butler immediately answered this question. "The Grand Duke has arrived." I jumped up from my seat. Doctor Kim, as expected! She must have pulled something off. Excited, I told her to lead…

"So that's why the Ma Trading Company is so powerful. To think such talent was supporting them. The Ma family will never forgive me for snatching Hoiga away." Hoiga saw this as mere flattery, and turned away. It was true that his presence here prevented him from properly assisting the family's affairs. Lately, at Kilu's request, he'd been deciphering Montaine's ancient texts day and night, leaving him exhausted. 'It must contain information about the divine beast. If we obtain that information,…

“You want to find the door that leads to the Forest of the Crimson Tide?” In a corner of the Montaine family’s library, Hoiga questioned Kilu, who had come to see him. “Yes. A door, or whatever it is. I want to find the path the Montaine divine beast uses to travel back and forth. That way, we can prepare.” The word 'prepare' immediately made Hoiga think of Borhumi. Because the Borhumi divine beast was trapped, its power weakened and the Crystal Lake dried up. Consequently, the hidden…
