Beep. Beep-beep. Beep-beep-beep. An ear-piercing mechanical sound, and a familiar yet dry scent of fabric softener wafting through the air. “…Mm-hmm.” Sibel struggled to lift his heavy eyelids. The first thing that came into view was the old white wallpaper and fluorescent lights, bathed in the morning sunlight. It was not the vast, cold ceiling of the Demon King’s castle. There were no fancy chandeliers, nor the mysterious sky visible through the window. “Huh…?” Sibel sat…- 219.9 K • Completed
During that brief silence, Zed and Madam Mare just blinked at each other. Zed broke the silence first. “Ha, hahaha… maybe because I climbed down the mountain, my stomach feels a bit… unwell…” Zed awkwardly grabbed his stomach and tried to escape the situation, and Madam Mare smiled softly. “You should have said so sooner. Come with me. There’s a restroom behind my shop.” “Yes. Thank you.” Zed followed Madam Mare, and the cat that had crawled out of the cloak tilted its…- 210.3 K • Ongoing
- “Demon King! Demon King!” Ruru ran over and checked the situation. The two who had lost consciousness looked strange. “What happened? The Demon King’s demonic power…” Ruru was confused because he could feel the same demonic power from Aizen that he could normally feel only from Sibel. The two of them radiated similar waves. “They’ve mixed.” Ramiel examined Aizen’s state as he spoke. During the explosion, the energy of the two had merged together for some reason.…

At the call, Yudit turned around. It was the child who had been fidgeting with the magic stone, clearly wanting to keep it. Among the commoners, the child’s blond hair and blue eyes stood out. Clenching his small fists, the child took a deep breath and shouted at the top of his lungs, “See you tomorrow!” His voice carried on the wind. Yudit gave a soft smile and waved. “Alright. See you tomorrow.” The child’s face lit up as if someone had flipped a switch. He kept waving until Yudit…- 396.9 K • Completed
- “Are you saying it might be possible to assassinate him?” “We can attempt it, but it won’t be easy. Still, we should be able to stir up some chaos for a while. If you deem it too dangerous, I can suggest another method.” “There’s no need to wait for things to quiet down before we act.” Reginald, stroking his chin, paused in thought before speaking again. “Proceed as planned, but if you’re discovered, make it look like Hiore is responsible.” After all, his mother was on…

Jeong Siwoo, 23 years old. Mental-type. His foxlike face was marked by a beauty mark under his left eye. He stopped when he saw Sejun, then smiled softly, eyes folding as he always did. “Oh, hello hyung.” “Uh… hi.” They hadn’t exchanged a word for the past few months, but since they had suddenly run into each other alone on the stairs, it would have been awkward to ignore him. So he greeted Sejun with a smile. Sejun gave a reluctant greeting back. It wasn’t because he disliked…- 279.8 K • Completed
- “I’m scared.” “What?” Cha Dogyeong turned his head with surprise at Sejun’s unusually honest answer. Sejun shouted with a choked voice. “I said I’m scared, you bastard!” Normally Sejun would have bluffed. If it were any dungeon but this. But what if he acted tough here and Dogyeong abandoned him to go ahead first? Sejun knew he would faint right away. Sejun could not bring himself to look at Dogyeong’s face, nor at the darkness ahead where he had no idea what might be…

From that day on, Seolyeong spent his daily life with the boy. Whenever he thought of Seonwol-do, which had been taken from him by that deputy of Seongseodang, he would go looking for the boy. ‘When am I going to get my mutt back…’ Was it because he had no one else to rely on that he kept clinging to the child? Had he latched onto an easy target because he had nowhere else to place his feelings? If that were the case, then this couldn’t be a proper master-disciple…- 253.5 K • Completed
“P-Please, help me…” A desperate plea rang out. The frozen people turned to look at one another. “W-Wasn’t that Lawrence’s voice just now…?” “Y-Yeah! That was Lawrence! S-Shouldn’t we open the door?” “There are monsters swarming outside! If we open it, they’ll come rushing in and we’ll all die! Is that what you want?!” “But it’s Lawrence…” “He’s definitely been bitten.” It was Gibson who coldly declared that, and the others silently agreed.…- 264.3 K • Completed
