Here was someone who was not a Maru, yet could cool his blood just like one. Or perhaps he was a Maru whose mark was hidden somewhere other than his neck. Ye-hwi had never heard of a mark existing anywhere else, but this was the Kingdom of Ansi—the land where the first Marus had settled and their descendants thrived. In this place, the impossible might just be the reality. "So, what is your name?" "……" "Do you not have one?" "Hwi." "Hwi?" "Yes.…- 19.8 K • Ongoing
- "How do you plan to use an old man like that?" Yoo-ha had instructed the shopkeeper to provide food and care for the beggar. But why? What was the point of such charity? To Hwi, the man was a useless burden. He was genuinely curious about what Yoo-ha expected to gain in return; after all, in his world, no one bestowed kindness without a price. "As a clerk. Small shop owners can rarely afford to hire help. They need to step away at least once a day, but with no one to watch the stalls, they…

- Ye-hwi, who had been on the verge of issuing a serious threat to the man who dared suggest buying him, reminded himself that he was in the Kingdom of Ansi and held his tongue. He clicked his tongue softly and turned to leave. But just as he took a step, that melodic voice tickled his ears once more. "I will ensure you never go hungry." "What?" "I won’t strike you, and you’ll always have a roof over your head." "..." "I can even take you to the market occasionally…

- 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 1 Mirumaru 1. Please Take Care of Me, Master “Look down upon us, O Great One, and grant us Your mercy!” The desperate pleas of mankind—suffering through an endless cycle of drought, flood, and pestilence—finally reached the Heavenly Emperor in the realms above. As the Emperor looked down upon the earth with an indifferent gaze, his dragon, who had been soaring through the clouds to delight its master, spoke. “I shall descend to the land and watch over…

Dan Ning agreed to continue communicating. This was a positive signal. While congratulating me, the Biocomputer suggested I begin preparing other things. For the next Mimetic Camouflage transformation, I needed a legal identity and Earth's currency. With the help of the internet (especially with the Biocomputer's technical support), these weren't difficult to obtain. The Alliance does not prohibit professions like Starfarers from employing certain gray-area methods when integrating into new…- 16.6 K • Completed
- Qikeliyah, my friend, it's been so long since we last spoke. How have you been? The Alliance has revoked the arrest warrants for me and Yog. We're planning to return to our homeworld soon—I promised to take him to the Yog Bubble Bar. Drinking with the space pirates who stole the planet—would you and your partner like to join us? I've brought gifts for you. Looking forward to our…

- Hello, please forgive me for taking the liberty of browsing your correspondence with Tawil. I am Yog. Before typing these words, I hesitated for a long time over whether I should contact you. But since you are his friend, I believe you will be mine as well. We are currently still in the Azathoth Star Sector. I got Tawil drunk, and now I'm in his room, sending you this message using his communicator. I saw your previous exchange, and I'm glad you asked those questions—they helped me immensely. Now,…

- This is the last greeting, don't be so downcast, my friend. I've reviewed our previous correspondence—did I really reveal that much information? "Handsome appearance"—well, I did mention that; "hard to refuse him"—hmm… I really couldn't do anything about that look of his, could I? I admit I took note of his preferences—but why did you count my ability to describe the environment of that amoeba bar as "evidence"? Oh, wait—alright, I see it now, "highly focused attention when in close…

- My friend Qikeliyah, I knew you would understand that little game. Hacking the AI special envoy from the Department of Legal Affairs took less time than I expected. Before The Alliance catches on, we probably have one last safe exchange. To keep it short— I've had a long talk with Yog about his future. As I understood, he has no desire to return to his former way of existence. So, what needs to be done next is clear. I'll find a way to secure a legal identity for Yog—maybe even arrange a…
