“What?” “Rather, the empire is avoiding war. So they sold me here.” To be precise, they wanted to kill you through me. Lebel didn’t say that during classes, he repeatedly heard things like stealing the north’s confidential military information or brainwashing-like words. “…You, are you really the Foolish Prince?” “I’m called that.” “Edmund, are you going to watch that? It’s suspicious.” “His Highness can hear it all.” “I’m saying it so he can…- 232.7 K • Completed
- Edmund read the writing on the letter and let out m a small laugh. The knights’ shoulders trembled. It was even more so because they knew all the secretly given orders of the emperor. “His Majesty said until you accept His Highness as bride….” “We accept.” “…..Pardon?” “Ah, of course not me, my son. Son, look at this. The emperor seems to really want to become in-laws with us. Too hasty.” Yutis approached Edmund and examined the letter. If Edmund had laughed, he…

- When Lebel raised his head, Yutis’s state finally came into view. The man, who was only pale, was dyed bright red from nape to face. How long had he been red? Out of curiosity, Lebel reached out and poked the red cheek of the man. “Y-Your Highness!” “Why are you so surprised?” “Th-that’s……” “I just touched because your face is red. You touched me saying my fingertips are red, my earlobes are red, but I can’t touch you?” The man who fiddled with his fingertips and…

- “By Iol’s order, I’m Mahan, assigned to attend to you from now on.” The man’s attitude was polite, but his gaze and sarcastic sniping remained fierce. Saying he’d attend was no different from surveillance. But Lebel was used to such gazes, having been monitored by Hans before. Lebel nodded saying understood. “Why did young master Yutis take such a guy……” Mahan’s muttering didn’t end, his dissatisfaction immense. He examined the kitchen and offered a basket…

- Lebel looked around. The one called “dad” seemed to be the lord of this territory, the duke. To think the duke hate him this much. If the duke was the one to whom he was granted as a bride, he wouldn’t like the sudden bride. Especially with a son like Yutis, it meant he had a wife. It was normal to react this way to a gift from someone he disliked. What was abnormal was Yutis’s side. He was treating the prince sent by the emperor as a bride for his father with some respect. With the…

- He had proudly declared to the Emperor that he would take Lebel as his bride. The boy who rarely insisted on anything was now stubborn. From the moment he declared he would take that man as his bride, everyone knew he would not back down. Their argument over this matter had gone on for more than a day. The man gave up trying to persuade Yutis and he turned his bright eyes to Lebel, intending to persuade Lebel instead of Yutis. “Your Highness, do you not know about the curse passed down in the…

- This man didn’t harbor malice toward him like the others. Yutis alternated glances between the nonchalant Lebel and Shati, still baring its teeth. “Aren’t you scared?” “What should I be scared of? Didn’t you say it doesn’t bite?” It was a savage beast unlike its master, but ultimately an obedient demonic beast that followed its master’s orders, right? Yutis hesitated and then took Lebel’s hand, seating him right in front of himself. As the unaccepted human mounted,…

- “It’s a little better.” Though Lebel’s body was human, his soul was demonic, harboring demonic energy. Naturally, being exposed to demonic energy made him feel invigorated. Lebel conjured flames from his hands. His efforts had paid off; he could now sustain it longer and more intensely than before. Killing someone with this was still difficult, but his body was transforming to allow him to use the demonic energy. And once he fully adapted, he would be able to wield its power. Lebel…

- Last time it was fingers, now earlobes. But indeed, due to prolonged exposure to the cold air, he had no sensation. When Lebel looked up at Yutis, he pulled his hand back with an “ah.” Looking slightly flustered, he offered something. “Please wear this.” Yutis put the glove he had been wearing on Lebel. The glove was as large as his big hand. His bare hand, hidden by the thick glove, was revealed. The calluses embedded here and there proved he had held a sword his whole life. Lebel…

- Clatter-clatter. Lebel gazed out the window at the passing scenery. They had left the imperial palace behind, exited the capital, traversed countless villages, and now raced toward the north. He had lost track of how long they had traveled. The jolting carriage battered his hips relentlessly, fatigue accumulating with each bump. This frail body struggled to endure the arduous journey. Lebel massaged his throbbing temples. Knights encircled the carriage, rendering any escape impossible. The…
