“Alright.” The problem was solved, so why did it feel so uncomfortable? On the other hand, he seemed to be in a good mood and took a step further. “Ask for something else, too.” “Will you grant it again? Just because I said it?” “Yes.” “Write a contract for me.” “Alright.” “Really? You have to write it as soon as we return to the manor.” “If you say it properly.” I didn't know what kind of whim he was acting on, but it was a good opportunity.…- 323.4 K • Completed
I stood up and forced myself to smile. "My heart drops just seeing your brave figure, Grand Duke." "Is that so? I could cut your chest open and check for myself." He’s a man without a single grain of romance. I looked at his sharp blade and took a half-step back. He immediately stepped closer and grabbed my elbow. "So, what did you find?" I’d briefly forgotten that this man never gives up until he gets an answer. I had no choice but to speak honestly. "It's just a type of…- 323.4 K • Completed
I learned one thing while I led a civilian unit. No matter how desperate the situation, there is always drama. People fight, they have secret flings, and they even cheat on each other in the middle. They do everything. Because of that, one of my main duties was to mediate between members. “Focus only on the goal.” I emphasized this again as I looked into Black Bear’s eyes. “You’ve endured all sorts of obstacles and trials until now. This time, please just look toward the goal and hold on…- 323.4 K • Completed
"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,…- 323.4 K • Completed
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…- 323.4 K • Completed
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…- 323.4 K • Completed
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…- 323.4 K • Completed
“Yeah, I know. He sure knows it damn well. But don’t worry. I don’t keep the best mercenary unit on the continent as my guards for nothing. Those bastards grind their teeth when they hear the name Adeye, but so what, huh? Let’s see if they can even touch the tip of my toe!” “Doctor Kim, it’d be better if you stop stepping on Kun from now on.” “There’s nothing to be scared of. The world’s about to fall apart because of Kun, so we should step on them even harder. So, what’s the…- 323.4 K • Completed
His wide-eyed surprise lasted only a moment; he couldn't feel that exhilarated. He unleashed his power like that several times, and the powerful wind continued to rage. But something was missing. No matter how much wind he unleashed, he felt thirsty. After continuously, continuously drawing out his power, he reached a limit. Why? Unable to figure out the reason, he stopped releasing his power. After all, he had a master who could provide the answer. But Sornihil was kneeling, hands pressed…- 323.4 K • Completed
Though it was unfair, I had to bear the karma of not receiving the contract. Instead, I sighed. If I were Salvation, such things wouldn't happen. If I could lift the Kun family's curse, there would have been no reason to fight Sarne in the first place. My frustration must have shown on my face. "As Lord Lu wishes, the Grand Dukewill surely triumph in the battle against Bayan and return safely." "Rick, be honest. You're worried." Rick cleared his throat and looked away. Where did that insincere…- 323.4 K • Completed
