Before he could respond, a freckle-faced man with bright orange hair answered for him. “Must be a new recruit. Didn’t expect them to send in someone so pathetic when they said we’d get reinforcements.”” “They’re basically just telling him to go die.” “Still, that one looks decent, at least,” said another member, glancing at Shane. After that, they no longer spoke to Yudit. The beatings for those who had fallen behind had resumed. Once the twentieth lap was passed, most of…- 396.9 K • Completed
- After finishing his morning training and taking a shower, Yudit sat blankly in his bedroom. Even though it was his own house, Khalid hadn’t shown up at all, apparently busy with something. Only the dachshund, Ro, wagged his tail and greeted Yudit. Selena was absolutely smitten with Ro, while Yvonne looked horrified. After arriving in the capital, Selena returned to the Craven Count’s estate. Yvonne said she had found a place to stay on her own, but given the situation, Yudit had hoped she would stay…

- “His Majesty says he cannot spare time today.” At the steward’s words, Yudit looked troubled. No sooner had he arrived in the capital than he headed straight for the imperial palace to request an audience with the emperor. But after waiting two hours, the only answer he received was a rejection. “Is His Majesty unwell?” “We are not obligated to answer such questions.” The steward replied coldly. He clearly had no intention of giving anything away. Since the steward was the…

- “Are you asking if I stopped liking you? Of course not.” Khalid spoke like it was a ridiculous question. It was a relief, but at the same time, it stung. “Then why are you avoiding me?” Khalid fell silent, as if he had no excuse. Seeing him like that made something boil up inside Yudit. “It’s not like that.” “Then what is it?” Again, silence. Yudit bit his lip. Then he reached out and grabbed Khalid’s wrist, pulling him in. Khalid let himself be drawn toward him…

- As buildings began to outnumber the grasslands, the capital suddenly loomed just ahead. Yudit and the rest of the group checked into an inn. With nearly five hundred people, they had to be split across several inns. Yudit had worried that Khalid might end up in a different one, but thankfully that wasn’t the case. He stole a glance at Khalid, who was seated in front of a generous meal for the first time in a while. Even though Khalid was nearby, he didn’t spare Yudit a single glance. Why? At…

- Khalid had just stepped out of the tent when Yudit finally pulled on his trousers. The ointment had smeared on the fabric, making it sticky, but it was still better than sitting bare-bottomed in Khalid’s tent. When Khalid came back in and saw Yudit with his trousers on, he let out a sigh. “I told you to stay as you were.” “This is better.” Yudit shrank back, worried he might try to pull them off again. Khalid just shrugged as if to say, “Don’t worry.” “Who was it?” “A…

- “You said you’d introduce me to someone… so I thought it was a person.” Yudit said as he stroked the horse’s mane. Its coat shimmered from the tip of its ears to the nape of its neck in the sunlight. It was clearly a fine, expensive steed. “The horse I’m riding now is good enough.” Yudit usually rode a three-year-old mare named Noah. He had grown attached to her and was considering taking her on this expedition. Khalid, knowing how often Yudit rode Noah, shook his…

- After her emotional farewell with Yudit, Yvonne eventually hurried off, leaving Yudit alone. Or rather, not quite alone. “Well then, now that everyone’s gone, how about we say goodbye too, Luka?” At Yudit’s words, the curtain by the window gave a noticeable flutter. A pair of feet fidgeted beneath it, then the curtain was drawn back and Luka stepped out. His face was soaked, as if he’d been crying. Yudit knelt down and gently wiped Luka’s tear-streaked face. “I wanted us to say…

- Yudit, who had led them to the table, pulled the bell cord to have tea brought in. Seeing the three of them looking around the cluttered room, he gave an awkward smile. “The room’s a bit messy, isn’t it? Should we go outside for drinks?” “No, we’re the ones who should apologize for visiting when you’re probably so busy…” “It’s all right. I actually wanted to see the three of you before I left. Thank you for coming to me first like this.” They were the ones he had brought…

The castle, which had been shrouded in darkness for a long time, was now illuminated in every corner with bright lights. It was a place that had transformed into something completely different in just two days. Even though it was early dawn and the sky was still dark, the place was bustling with people working to restore the castle. ”I didn’t order that.” Startled, I flinched at the whisper right next to my ear. There was only one person who would do something like this. I glared at Tairok…- 305.8 K • Ongoing
