Chapter 106: Psychological Warfare In the desolate countryside, inside an abandoned pavilion, sat a man dressed in plain white robes. His expression was haggard, his face shadowed and brooding. His fingertips tapped lightly on the stone table, each tap echoing in sync with Jiang Chuang’s approaching footsteps. When Jiang Chuang stepped into the pavilion, the man finally lifted his eyes slightly. Seeing Jiang Chuang had come alone, he slowly revealed a satisfied smile. “You really came alone.…- 166.6 K • Completed
But he couldn’t reveal the reason. Saying he couldn’t would only make things seem suspicious. He needed to end this conversation cleanly before it got twisted. “Your Grace, you promised to grant me any reward I wanted, didn’t you?” “I did.” “Then please, I ask this as my request. I cannot serve you. Please withdraw your offer.” Aeryl lowered his head as he spoke. The Grand Duke was a ruler of this land—he could have anything he wanted. What did the opinion of a mere…- 279.4 K • Completed
“……” He had gone to the kitchen and washed his face clean, but it seemed Dojin had still noticed the faint puffiness around his reddened eyes. Unable to bring himself to admit he’d been crying like a child, Jiho clamped his mouth shut and pretended not to notice. Dojin’s sharp gaze shifted to Jiheon. “Did you make him cry?” “Hah.” A dry laugh escaped Jiheon. This sharp-edged version of Dojin—it was the first time he’d seen it since their first meeting. It was…- 289.6 K • Completed
The sudden praise made his cheeks blush. Unbeknownst to him, his hand fiddled with the hem of his robe, but he shrugged his shoulders as if nothing was wrong and quickly walked away. Laughter echoed from behind. The inn came into view nearby. From afar, riffraffs were already causing a ruckus, grabbing visitors in broad daylight. As one visitor fell to a thug's hammer, a brawl erupted in an instant. Silver entered the inn and said. Wolf, who had been shaking his left…- 134.3 K • Ongoing
“He seems particularly energetic today.” “He’s not just swinging it around because he’s angry?” Enya looked at Haas, who had approached her side, with a displeased look. “Do you want the Grand Duke to be upset?” “No, I’m saying this because the Grand Duke visited Lord Gumber’s summer villa during the day.” “Lord Gumber’s summer villa? The Grand Duke visited there? Why? A monster appeared?!” When Enya raised her voice, several people turned their heads. Haas…- 323.4 K • Completed
- “Hmm. Well, maybe, when I look closely, it really seems to say that.” One guard reached out to take only the gold coin, but Tairok gripped it tightly and did not let go. “Can we go?” “Hmhm, since you have a certificate of confirmation, taking water out is allowed. So this, ugh… let go a little.” “Can we go?” “Yes.” When he answered, Tairok released his hand. But the guard changed instantly as soon as the gold coin touched his palm. “Wait, the only ones who can…

“Why? You could just do something else. Do you have to become emperor?” “Even if they don’t become emperor, they still have a claim to the throne. You never know when a rebellion might break out, so they cut off the threat in advance.” “Will Your Highness become emperor?” Wadiram asked in a worried voice. “Hmm… I want to.” But the chances were slim. If he didn’t place in the top two of this competition, he would lose his head. As Wadiram stared intently at Yudit, he…- 396.9 K • Completed
“They filthy bastards are in Verden?!” “Filthy Crotches” was actually a nickname Sharhan had come up with. Their real name was Savage Hawks a second rank mercenary group. Like the Red Wolves, they had been employed by the Marquis of Valmon, but contrary to their fierce and dignified name, they were vile and despicable scum. They were always the first to swarm when sex workers arrived, and they were known to abduct smaller, prettier mercenaries to rape. They’d start fights over…- 264.3 K • Completed
The young man not far off gave him a wave. His eyes were clear, pitch-black. Tang Ziyan took a slow breath, nodded at Xu Wanhe, and got up to head over. The banquet ran until after nine at night. Since Yang Moshou kept praising how luxurious the hotel was, Xu Wanhe just went ahead and booked a suite there. He’d stepped out earlier to take care of something. When he came back upstairs, he lifted his leg and kicked the door. When the door opened from inside, Xu Wanhe walked in without…- 71.4 K • Completed
- “It won’t be easy…” Even as he trailed off, Aeryl’s mind was racing. A way to win Lady Merel over came to him. The role of Grand Duchess—he’d get used to it with time, and he was confident he could learn quickly. Time was something that could be squeezed out if needed. ‘Though I’ll have to be careful about infectious diseases…’ If he followed what Hiello had said, it might actually work more in his favor. He already had so much he wanted to learn and do that he didn’t even…
