“What does it matter whose house it is!” Shanti jumped up. But there was a need to correct his misunderstanding. “Aizen might look like a criminal, but he’s not a bad person.” “What, why does the Demon King call the hero by name so affectionately!” “I always did?” “No! You always said hero, apostle, or human!” That must be a memory mistake. He didn’t think he had ever used the word human. Sibel’s gaze suddenly turned toward Ramiel. He was looking past the arched…- 215.1 K • Completed
The place Baek Mugyeong had chosen for dinner was a Korean fine dining restaurant at the Carva Hotel. When I gave his name at the entrance, I was immediately shown to a private room. It was ten minutes before six, but Baek Mugyeong was already there. He stood up to greet me. “You’re here.” “Yes. You’re early.” I greeted him politely and sat across from him. My actions were smooth, but my heart was beating irregularly. When I first heard from Choi Jaeha about my aunt, I had…- 281.3 K • Completed
- We were already married. We’d had sex several times. There was no reason to be embarrassed just because I saw him naked. It was times like this that called for confidence. “Do you have something to say?” “…Your body looks good.” I couldn’t think of a good excuse, so I ended up blurting out the truth. Baek Mugyeong raised one eyebrow like he couldn’t believe what he’d just heard. His face didn’t change much usually, so that small reaction was unexpectedly cute. “I’m…

"It's not over yet." Biakin said firmly. Victory would change everything. The subjects discovered a demon in the imperial palace? So what? Memories could be manipulated. And once Lebel’s power was in his hands, everything would be resolved. He had witnessed that unreal power with his own eyes, and that made it all the more tempting. More importantly, Lebel seemed to have orchestrated this entire situation without straining himself. "...Haha, so you're threatening me with Yutis's life after…- 238.4 K • Completed
Choi Yeorok was so busy he couldn’t catch his breath. Meetings with shareholders who had voting rights and with the heads of Haegang Group’s affiliates became frequent. He also needed to handle the external duties he already had. Just like he warned, it became hard to even see his face at home. When the trust ended, Yeorok would get all the shares Chairman Choi left behind. It meant he’d become the official owner who led Haegang. After Chairman Choi passed away, the position of Haegang’s head…- 240.1 K • Completed
- Lately, the two of them had been spending much more time together. Whenever Yeorok was home, he often called Eunho to the mansion and heard the day’s events directly from him. They sometimes had in-depth conversations about upcoming plans, and sometimes they read books or listened to music together in silence. Yeorok’s private study in the mansion was his most personal space, a sanctuary no one could enter freely. At some point, that room had become Eunho’s favorite place. When they were…

“It was just so beautiful. The sapphire ring… it was so beautiful… I only tried it on once. I thought maybe… just maybe, if I wore it, even my rough, wrinkled hands might look a little prettier… The palace is filled with glittering things, and I— I was just old and shabby. I just wanted to try on something lovely for once… That was my mistake. I’ve reflected on it deeply. I’ll never do something like that again. I know now—jewels like that don’t suit someone like me. I was foolish,…- 396.9 K • Completed
Breakfast was set just outside the entrance to the Ice Cave. The houses inside the cave hadn’t been built with stoves, none at all, as if it had never been considered. Heating could be managed with heatstones to some extent, but the issue was cooking. Sure, the food could be eaten raw, but if possible, it was better to have it cooked. So the nanny lit a fire near the entrance to cook meals. Today, it was roasted potatoes and cornmeal soup. Cooking utensils had been salvaged from homes at the base of…- 264.3 K • Completed
“It also serves the purpose of expanding the Taeyang Guild’s scale a little more. The Sunrise Team depended entirely on a single unit, but the Taeyang Guild cannot do that. Considering the Great Rift, our team will have to operate overseas in the future, so we need to recruit more personnel and establish a more systematic dispatch system….” While Yohan was listening carefully to these matters, he felt a presence. Everyone turned their heads, and soon there was a knock on the door. A moment later…- 297.5 K • Completed
Even with the hint, I ended up saying nothing. This time too, Iser didn't rush me or reproach me. Iser's face as he ate breakfast was as serene as ever. It was actually me who was out of character. For some reason, it felt hard to strike up a conversation, and it took me a long while before I could finally speak. "Do you like strawberries?" Strawberries from the garden lay on the table. A few days ago, I'd found several green strawberries in the garden, and when I checked just now, two of them…- 187.9 K • Ongoing
