A castle shrouded in fog. Though it might look like natural morning fog, to my eyes it now looked as nothing more than a shackle. That symbol of the curse had become a goal that Tairok strived to achieve, and now it had become my goal as well. It wasn’t not just that lifting the curse would revive Kun’s divine beast and close the Eye of Hell. I don’t know when it had happened, but I must have been influenced by Tubain. I wanted to do at least one good thing for this place. Like lifting that…- 305.8 K • Ongoing
- Grand Duke Montaine looked at the letter with such a blank expression that it was impossible to read her emotions. Hoiga waited patiently, holding back his anger until she spoke first. He could have incurred her wrath for being insolent if he had unnecessarily added his two cents. She might even have turned violent out of rage. After all, it must have been that shocking an event for Grand Duke Montaine. However, a moment later, Grand Duke Montaine did something completely unexpected. Riiip. She…

- 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…

- 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.…

- 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…
