The bath was ready just in time for Khalid’s return, the water kept at the perfect temperature. The large tub could easily fit ten people. Yudit leaned back against the far edge and let out a long sigh. The rose petals floating on the surface released a subtle fragrance. “Come closer,” Khalid said. Yudit had kept some distance, feeling a little self-conscious earlier, but now Khalid reached out his hand. Yudit moved toward him, cutting through the water. Khalid pulled him into an embrace from…- 396.9 K • Completed
“Mmm……” “Shh…… It’s alright.” Perhaps feeling confined by the tight embrace, Yoo-ha moaned in his sleep. Ye-hwi infused a bit more heat into the brazier hovering in the center of the room and gently stroked Yoo-ha’s back. He spoke softly, his voice a low murmur as if soothing a fitful child. Seong Yoo-ha was a man who succumbed to the cold easily. Even though winter had yet to fully arrive, he spent every night curled into a tight ball. His sleep was usually so…- 19.8 K • Ongoing
Thud “Ugh! I feel like I can live a little now!” The Royal Knights' branch offered the group a house. The small, single-room house was a bit cramped for three, but upon entering the room with its immovable walls and impervious ceiling, Leon let out a groan of joy and threw himself onto the bed. After nearly ten hours of torment in the carriage, no further explanation was needed. Although their progress was slowed by the rain, they braved the wind and rain and finally arrived at the Royal…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
- In the Kingdom of Mir, the status of a Maru was hallowed. Though the severity varied, every Mir lived under the shadow of pain or encroaching madness, and the only beings capable of tethering them to sanity were the Marus. They were life itself. Therefore, in the Kingdom of Mir, a Maru was always under a protector’s shadow, their every need provided for. A Maru wandering the streets alone, unbonded and unescorted, was a sight that simply did not exist back home. Among the people within Ye-hwi’s…

Chapter 26 Though the fireworks wouldn't start for another half hour, the prime viewing spots in front of Cinderella Castle were already crowded. A couple had staked out the best central location, even laying out a large pink blanket. Li Fei approached them and handed over several hundred dollars. The couple not only readily gave up their spot and happily walked away, but before leaving, they even kindly took a group photo for the two in front of the castle. Fu Siting: "......" Is that even a…- 72.1 K • Ongoing
A reply came from Iser, who had been lying motionless. "...Yes." His voice was low and muffled. But it wasn't the voice of someone who'd just woken up. "When did you wake up?" "...When you came in from the balcony." That's a lie. Iser's posture and breathing hadn't changed before or after I went out to the balcony and came back in. Thinking about it now, it seemed like he'd been like that all night. So Iser had been awake all night. Just like me. Maybe he hasn't slept even once while…- 180.0 K • Ongoing
- “Medic, over here!” Yudit called for a medic. But the soldiers were packed too tightly, so the medic could not reach easily. Noban, who had sat down, stood up again. “This much… is fine.” But soon Noban coughed and spat blood. His lung seemed injured. The soldiers panicked and did not know what to do. ‘When a superior is hurt or dies, the soldiers are affected far more than expected. So please, always stay somewhere safe.’ Yudit realized Noban’s words. A superior getting hurt…

The second abyss was deeper and more despairing than the first. Like fallen dominoes, unstoppable memories flooded his mind. A man crying uncontrollably. All white. A being as sacred and lovely as a full moon. The past desire to hold him felt as vivid as the present. He had brutally restrained that man, that small, slender body floundering weakly. Though he couldn't know what had possessed him, Kaelus was certain of one thing. It wasn't creating something that didn't exist. It was something…- 171.8 K • Completed
- "Hey!" Bam! The men kicked the orc, who had been standing there blankly, staring at Harto. “I asked what this guy is!” At the loud shout, the orc stifled a scream and fell to the ground. He groaned, rubbing his sore butt. "He-he is… a half-blood spirit…" "Half-blood spirit?" "What's that?" The men grimaced and whispered among themselves. It was a term they'd never heard before. "So… he reacts to spirit stones… but he’s not a complete spirit… I heard that sometimes,…

The sun had just risen, and the pale moon still hung in the sky. The surroundings were eerily quiet, with even the elderly morning exercisers in the neighborhood yet to wake up. From the balcony outside the bedroom came the sound of splashing water. Lao Ye, who had slept in a basin all night, slowly crawled out along the slope. Instead of hurrying outside, it inched its way to a dry cloth placed by the door—a specialized pet towel for drying. In no time, the cloth absorbed all the moisture from the…- 380.6 K • Completed
