“Ah, Seolwoo. Just take it once. Huh? Please, please.” On the playground where the hot sunlight beat down, Kim Chanju was begging Han Seolwoo. There was no particular reason. It was all because of the impressive Han Seolwoo. The Hansan High heartthrob, the pale and pretty kid. That idol or trainee guy, the former child actor. People said his mom was Kim Heeseo, who won a Best Actress award. Oh, they said his dad was Ash Lucas. No, he’s the CEO of Han Motors; anyway, is he half-Russian?…- 217.8 K • Completed
“It’s cloudy today too….” Harto muttered to himself as he looked out the window. The rain had completely stopped by dawn, but the sky was still thick with dark clouds, as if it might pour down again at any moment. “Mister Harto, this way.” “Oh, yes…!” The butler politely showed the way to Harto, who was slightly behind Ser and Reina. Harto hurried to follow them. Today, he was leaving the annex and heading to the mansion's dining room to have breakfast with Isadora. It was…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
Thud “Ugh! I feel like I can live a little now!” The Royal Knights' branch offered the group a house. The small, single-room house was a bit cramped for three, but upon entering the room with its immovable walls and impervious ceiling, Leon let out a groan of joy and threw himself onto the bed. After nearly ten hours of torment in the carriage, no further explanation was needed. Although their progress was slowed by the rain, they braved the wind and rain and finally arrived at the Royal…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
Ser was born as the illegitimate child of a certain lord of the Northern Arcadium Empire. His mother was a maid of that household, and when the lord’s wife learned the truth, she immediately drove her out and forced her onto the streets. She realized she was pregnant only later, but she chose not to return. A merchant noble who pitied her took her in and provided for her, and he helped her give birth to the child safely. The two came to rely on each other and fell in love. Ser grew up together with…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
“Is it okay to keep going like this? It’s raining cats and dogs…?” “That’s true.” They had run through the desert all night and safely entered the Regnovar Empire, which was good, but the rain pouring down like a deluge was far from welcome to the group. The biggest problem was the carriage they were riding in. The camels that could walk without trouble on sand became much slower on the laid gravel road. Since they had crossed the border, it would have been right to change their…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
Swaaa ... Clouds rolled in across the sky all morning, and at some point, a relentless downpour of rain began. As the sun hid behind thick, dark clouds, the world became as dark as early evening. Five black carriages, heading for the Grenhardt mansion, galloped through the pouring rain. The knights escorting them on horseback, soaked with rain, continued their pace toward their destination without slowing. Flash-! Just before the thunder rumbled, a dazzling flash of light illuminated the world…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
Harto decided to hurry and meet Isadora. Today, at least, he wanted to explain the situation and ask for help. He hadn't yet decided on what to ask for or how to ask for it, but he hoped that once he started talking, some kind of clue might emerge. “Mister Harto? What brings you here?” Just as he passed the entrance to the annex, he ran into the butler. He had a gentle expression and a polite demeanor, as if he were telling Harto to feel free to talk about anything. “I was wondering if Lady…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
That night, Harto once again had a dream similar to the one before. A hospital room with the blinds drawn over the window, pure white walls, and a bed. And a small butterfly glowing white was perched on the back of Harto’s hand, softly fluttering its wings. ‘That butterfly I saw back then…’ Just looking at it made him feel better. He was so happy to see it that Harto stayed completely still, afraid it might disappear if he moved even a little. As if it understood his feelings, the…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
As night fell, Reina regained consciousness. She had a dazed expression like someone who had just woken from sleep, completely unable to understand what had happened. Ser and Harto explained to her everything that had occurred without missing a single detail. The mansion servant brought dinner, and the long story only ended around the time dessert was served. Reina, who had been quietly listening to the two’s tale, directed a gaze filled with interest toward Harto. “But I don’t find it…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
‘Wow… it’s so much more grand than how the novel described it….’ Right after he learned that this was Count Grenhardt family’s estate, Harto couldn’t close his mouth for a while. A few lines in a novel could never capture this massive scale and overwhelming atmosphere, so he could only stare in awe. “This place is safer than anywhere else. Except it’s so large that managing it gets difficult.” Isadora stepped down from the carriage and said to Harto, who was standing there…- 199.7 K • Ongoing
