CHAPTERS
Tap, tap. The sound of footsteps echoed through the interior every time I descended the stone stairs leading underground. The spiral staircase was narrow and dark, so we didn't move fast, but this made it easy to converse with my companion. "It has been confirmed that Hoiga secretly slipped out of the Montaine mansion. However, he took a carriage to an illegal guild and used a portal. We couldn't verify the destination, but he appeared at the expected location: Montaine Castle." Solongo, ever…- 323.4 K • Completed
- I also glared at him and said. “It's a miracle my family is even alive and breathing right now.” “Isn't the miracle that she isn’t dead? You always wanted your younger sister to die. Everyone knows you went around saying all that wealth would be yours if your frail sister died early. Now you're suddenly acting like you care about her.” “Now that I've become Salvation, I should change a little too.” Hoiga let out a hollow laugh in disbelief as his attack failed to…

- “If Ma Hoiga still hasn't arrived after ten minutes, you must leave immediately." Enya, who had followed me into the reception room, said in a firm voice. I glanced back at her standing behind me. "He'll come." I understood her concern. Tairok had left to attack Sarne, the entire Tubain could soon become a…

- We get stuck in the swamp of confirmation bias, planning and analyzing only in the direction we want to hear. That's why in our world, we recommended periodically resetting the nanobots after a certain period of time. But resetting nanobots already tailored to oneself isn't easy. Was that the case for Hoiga too? Is that why he's in this stupid state now? The reason for this suspicion was that I suddenly received a letter this morning. 'If you want the price of the wager, you only get one chance.…

- “He’s not just a pervert. He’s a pervert obsessed with men.” She answered flatly and began eating, but I completely lost my appetite. Of all things, why did I end up in a pervert’s body? “So wherever there were men gathered, he ran there. He was unbelievably diligent when it came to chasing men’s crotches.” Doctor Kim praised the pervert brother, and my face twisted in the opposite way. “That’s why I’m saying this, when you officially attend the party, you know you have to…

- Click. The door opened, and Solongo, who had gone to see Lu off, returned to the room where Doctor Kim was staying. She immediately went to Lantuya’s side and quietly called to her. "Madam, I confirmed that Lu has returned through the portal." Doctor Kim, who had been as still as if asleep, slowly opened her eyes. But seemingly lacking the strength to keep them open, she blinked several times before closing them again. Finally she met Solongo's gaze and asked. "Did you tell him as…

- It was only then that I realized I had been too caught up in my own thoughts. But Tairok didn’t ask me what I was thinking about. Instead, he questioned my taste in food. “Is that so good?” I looked down at my plate, where his gaze had landed. My fork had dipped in diced pickled radish. It was the precious chicken radish the Adeye family had sent me. These were all the benefits of Doctor Kim's stay at the Kun estate in the capital. The portal connecting there and this location allowed for…

- The vast library of Duke Kilu's residence had been off-limits for several days, yet it wasn't entirely empty inside. In fact, for days now, the sounds of pages turning and pen scratching on paper echoed continuously, day and night. The one holed up inside for days was Hoiga, whom most had briefly believed to be Salvation. When he entered the Montaine family, Kilu had granted him one privilege. The ability to freely read the ancient documents of the Montaine family that had previously been beyond his…

- Extra editions were distributed in numerous places, announcing that Adeye Lu declared to perform a miracle, but few people believed it. Even though reports spread that Grand Duke Kun used a divine beast's power, the result was the same. People even considered the reports about Grand Duke Kun to be false. "A divine beast only gives power to the family it chooses." This premise was a truth that nobody could deny. No matter how many people witnessed the miracle at Crystal Lake, they couldn't easily…

- “……I don’t have one. I’m just worried about the future.” I gave him a bitter smile, as he didn't believe me when I gave him a simple reason. “I didn’t know the Adeye residence would burn down so suddenly. My sister almost died.” There was no response. Instead, I felt a different reaction. He still held my arm, tightening his grip. It was so painful that I grimaced and raised my eyes, but this time, a sweet smile graced his lips. “She’s weak to begin with. Death could come…
