"Salvation has arrived." Kilu greeted Hoiga's entrance with a smile. Solongo then rose from her seat and bowed. Though it was a polite gesture, Hoiga's gaze upon her remained cold. "Your Grace, it embarrasses me when you address me that way in front of Solongo. Adeye also has a Salvation. Isn't that right, Solongo?" Solongo answered calmly, eyes lowered. "How could someone as lowly as I dare judge who is the true Salvation?" “I hear Lu can even communicate with divine beasts?” "Since…- 316.7 K • Ongoing
- “Solongo.” In the large, antique-filled reception room, Solongo bowed respectfully to the one who had summoned her. “Speak, Duke Kilu.” “Sit down. If you stand so stiffly, you'd think I summoned you to scold you.” Kilu’s tone was relaxed, as if addressing a close friend, but Solongo merely lifted her head slightly and maintained her upright posture. “How could I dare consider the Duke's precious words a scolding? Please speak freely of anything.” Solongo's tone made it…

- Following behind, I soon realized why he walked without hesitation. A moment later, a path appeared, wooden pillars driven into the ground, planks laid across them, stretching out endlessly. Like a bridge over a stream. But it was perilously narrow and twisted in such a haphazard way that I doubted it could truly be called a bridge. Why build it like that? Looking closer, I saw the pillars were embedded between the mesh holes. The black net writhed as if it were alive, but it didn't seem to affect…

"Who's there!?" Startled by the sudden voice in the room he'd thought empty, Kogaron shouted in alarm. In that instant, the pure white moon, hidden behind clouds, revealed itself. Under the pouring moonlight, the form of a beautiful man lying on the floor became visible. His short, silver-white hair sparkled under the moonlight. Round eyes, reminiscent of a cat's, stared unblinkingly at Kogaron. "Me? Lucariel Nebella Sarachephon." "……What?" "And who might you be?" Lucariel scanned…- 187.9 K • Ongoing
- As Iser said, this was indeed the annex of Hayut Castle. More precisely, it was Lucariel's room attached to the annex. Did he figure out this was Hayut Castle by seeing the fox decoration, the symbol of the Hayut ducal house? Even if that's true, how did he know this was the castle's annex? Until arriving at this room, Iser had been tightly sealed inside a bundle of clothes. So, without even seeing the building's exterior, he deduced this was the annex just by looking at the room's…

I stepped down into the forest near the village. The girl in my mouth grew bolder. Before setting her down, she looked at me with starlight-dusted eyes and stroked my nose gently. I felt like I was about to sneeze. I wished she would stop. The two boys stiffened. Even after the girl untied them, they clung to my legs like they were frozen solid, unable to move. The girl sighed and tapped their shoulders. The two drenched cats jumped up and ran behind a tree. While I was distracted by…- 171.8 K • Completed
- It was a night when sleep eluded me. I finally drifted off just before dawn. Then I had a dream I'd also had when I was very young. Strangely, once I had it, the dream would repeat for at least a few days. Come to think of it, there was a dragon in that one too. The content and atmosphere were almost like a horror movie, so as a child, I often woke up crying. At some point, I became a dry teenager and forgot about it. Now, it just felt strange. I wonder if that was a…

Jan held up both palms harmlessly and took a step back from Dennis, making a jest. “I won’t do anything improper today. More importantly, I’ve heard some interesting information.” “What is it?” “You had a meal ‘together’ with the students?” “There was no elegant service that brought meals all the way to my room.” “Oh… Mr. Kahler. Don’t be surprised. The faculty members use a different dining hall.” “Pardon?” “Most of the students are sensitive…- 102.4 K • Completed
- “Dennis Kahler.” Vittorio whispered Dennis’s name quietly. He wasn’t calling out to him. He was merely mumbling it inside his maw, as if chewing and swallowing Dennis’s name. Dennis, now completely off the bed, avoided Vittorio’s gaze. To mistake Eric for Vittorio… Eric, who was now deceased by Dennis’s hand, and Vittorio were different even in silhouette. It was hard to believe that a body as monstrously built as that could perform ballet. He was closer to a well-trained man of the…

Yan Mu looked at Jiang Zhihuo in silence. His voice was deep and low. Outside the window, hazy moonlight drifted into his eyes. "I want you to feel a little happier," Yan Mu said slowly, "but I don't know how." "So that's why you bit yourself?" Jiang Zhihuo pinched the indentation on his knuckle again. "It's just a habit when I'm thinking," Yan Mu said. "Then what did you come up with?" Jiang Zhihuo asked. Yan Mu shook his head and, with a backward motion, hooked Jiang Zhihuo's…- 369.8 K • Completed
