Valita smiled, his eyes twinkling. He accepted the end. ‘It is a pity.’ His regrets were ordinary and mundane. His regrets were ordinary and worldly. He regretted not enjoying alcohol more. He regretted holding back on sex. He avoided anything that might harm his body. ……He did not continue to learn the sword. Suddenly, his left leg throbbed. Valita's smile deepened. The statue, which had been falling as if frozen in time, was now right before his eyes. His thoughts expanded…- 171.8 K • Completed
The Fourth Prince momentarily lost his composure and thought, 'What the hell is wrong with this bastard?' Then he belatedly fixed his expression. Kekeke! When I laughed in his face, a strange gaze turned my way. I didn't stay quiet either. Holding onto the resentment from the greenhouse, I helped Kaelus. Kyaa. I acted extra cute in a way I normally never did. I climbed out of the cage and onto his body. Kaelus's face froze at this unscripted support. In the past, it would have been due to…- 171.8 K • Completed
I should’ve just stayed put instead of doing something meaningless… I regretted it, I was drained of all strength as if every ounce of my energy had been sapped. I couldn't stay like this forever. Damage control. I had to clean up……! I jumped to my feet, grabbed the strongest-looking liquor, and shoved it to Nitan's mouth. “Uh…… alcohol……? That drink…… I don’t usually drink…….” "Hmm. Well, if you say so…." Nitan took a sip. His eyes widened…- 171.8 K • Completed
Prince of Denos. If it’s the Emperor’s birthday celebration, then envoys or… well, something like that would come, right? Something like that had happened in the south not long ago. It was ridiculous how shamelessly they had pushed their way in. Politics, especially between nations, is never that simple... I sighed inwardly. I was starting to get a sense of the situation. They were probably formally invited to the mansion. However, regarding the greenhouse, it was clearly…- 171.8 K • Completed
Kaelus and Tortan were childhood friends. People assumed Kaelus's choice during the civil war was naturally due to that relationship. Of course, that was one reason. But it wasn't the main one. "……." The Second Prince advocated war against Denos. He dreamed of uniting the two lands to become emperor of a great empire. The problem was, it wasn't entirely a pipe dream. Possibility. That was the seed of tragedy. Many were beguiled. Nobles, especially, were blinded by the wealth…- 171.8 K • Completed
‘Yes. That did happen.’ Tortan shrugged his shoulders. “I was clinging to a sliver of hope there, but if you don’t have any clues, then there’s nothing to be done.” Kaelus’s expression didn’t relax. “Well, it feels a bit awkward for me to say this after starting it, but don't worry too much about it. Like I said before, I think it's highly likely it just naturally disappeared over time.” “You mean the legendary artifact?” “After a thousand years or so, wouldn't…- 171.8 K • Completed
This is suffocating! What the hell, am I some kind of pet bird?! And even if you raise a real bird like this, you’d get cursed at, idiot! You should at least take it for walks! When cleaning was needed, they’d move me to an identical cage and take the old one away to wash it. Damn it… My insides were boiling, but I stayed quiet for a few days to avoid upsetting Kaelus, who had barely started acting like a human. I didn't even speak. Because when I did speak, his reaction…- 171.8 K • Completed
He wailed about being hurt, but the emperor quickly revived and stood up. The knights hid their gloomy expressions and efficiently cleaned up the aftermath. They gathered the broken furniture to one side, found cleaning tools, and swept the floor. …A moment of clarity hit. It really lasted only a moment. On one side, the man called the emperor was spouting nonsense. “Why not just go ahead and be the real emperor?” ...Yeah. Let's just clean. “I'll…- 171.8 K • Completed
“Is the rumor true?” “Yes.” The knight holding the staff nodded. He seemed to be trying his best to remain calm, but his anxious gaze inevitably drifted toward the Fourth Prince's left leg. Beyond the front railing. The Fourth Prince, who had been watching the water below, smirked. He imagined hacking the knight to pieces and tossing him into the sea. His foul mood improved just a little. Water droplets splashed. They glistened like diamonds in the sunlight as they struck the…- 171.8 K • Completed
I knew it wouldn't be easy. ...But I never imagined it would be this hard! The past month has been a relentless, tearful struggle to bridge the distance between me and Kaelus. There were results. His attitude toward me has definitely softened and become more natural compared to when I first arrived at the mansion. But that was as far as it went. I can't get past the wall. A wall. Or a line. The standard he uses to decide who is ‘his person’. No matter what I did, I couldn't…- 171.8 K • Completed
