“Brother?” He was about to head straight to the bedroom when an unexpected interruption appeared. While he respected his older brother, he didn’t want to meet him on a day like this. “Shall I prepare your clothes?” “No need. I’ll go like this.” Hiore tightened his bathrobe and headed toward Reginald. The door opened, and he saw Reginald, who was gazing out the window. Under the moonlight, Reginald appeared more emperor-like than the emperor himself. Hiore both admired and…- 396.9 K • Completed
- Yudit still dreams of the nightmares from his childhood. However, he is no longer the helpless child he once was. In his dreams, he now often saves his mother, perhaps because he had rescued them from the fire. The women who chose to live rather than die had freed him from the nightmares that had tormented him for decades. Yudit was sincerely grateful to them. “Then, since you’ve both saved each other, we could become good friends,” the Marquis of Kinezia said, extending his hand towards Yudit.…

- Lyett lifted the hem of her skirt and grinned. Just as she said, the auction was on going in the hall next to them. The atmosphere in the burned even hotter than that of a concert, likely because of the eager participation of the attendees. A sapphire necklace had just been sold for a high price, and next up was Yasin’s tapestry. “Next, we have a tapestry donated by the artist who elevated Prince Yudit’s banquet to an even higher realm. It was handwoven by an artist from Herut and features two…

- “I’ll talk to you and leave. Don’t worry too much,” Yudit said as he stood up. Selena looked a bit relieved at that moment. “You must stay for a long time,” Selena insisted, urging him again before finally sending Yudit off. Outside, the concert was still going strong, though the music sounded quite poor. When Yudit doubted his ears, Lyett whispered beside him. “Not great, huh?” “Well… I think they need a bit more practice,” Yudit replied. “It’s a bit twisted. Nobles…

- “Thank you for the offer. I will join you.” Yudit replied without hesitation. Khalid burst into laughter at Yudit’s response. “Anyone who hears this would think we’re starting a business, not becoming partners.” “Ah…” “Then stay alert. I’ll come to pick you up in three days.” Before Yudit could reply, Khalid patted his head lightly and disappeared. Yudit, holding the lantern in front of the bookshelf, quietly watched his retreating figure before shaking his…

- “Oh! I’m sorry. Are you okay? Where are you hurt?” “I’m okay. It’s nothing.” Yasin quickly pulled his robe tighter and shook his head. However, not only Lyett, but even Selena, who had come to greet them later, saw this. Yudit apologized and greeted them. “I’m late. I’m sorry.” “Don’t say that. I’m grateful that you came.” Selena smiled gently as she spoke. “The wind is chilly here. Shall we talk inside?” “Do you have time?” Yudit worried that…

- Yudit covered his ears as he rode the carriage into the capital, the sound of construction filling the streets. Just like at the last banquet, Reginald had wasted no time initiating urban redevelopment. Everywhere in the city center—whether it be theaters, inns, parks, plazas, or boutiques—large-scale construction was underway. It was impossible to guess how much of his personal fortune he was pouring into it. From morning until evening, the noise of construction was ceaseless. “I’d heard about…

- “I didn’t think it’d be this bad.” Yudit got down from the bed and dusted off his clothes. Just because the fur was short didn’t mean it wouldn’t shed. Ro let out a short whine, seemingly displeased that Yudit had gotten up. It looked like he wasn’t a morning dog. When Yudit turned his head, he found Shane staring at him. The blood vessels in Shane’s eyes had burst red. “Shane. Don’t tell me you didn’t sleep.” “I got some sleep here and there.” Despite his words, the…

- Yudit sighed deeply after tossing and turning in bed, trying to fall asleep. Shane, still standing by the bedside, asked: “Are you feeling unwell?” “You’re what’s making me unwell.” “You’ll get used to me.” If he got hurt one more time, Shane might just lie down in the bed with him altogether. In a way, that might actually be more comfortable. In the end, Yudit sat up in bed. “I’ll go out for a walk.” Thankfully, by evening the swelling had gone down and the…

- “After one bite, it seems you’ve come up with a good idea.” Yudit gave a quiet smile instead of replying. “You got the answer right, so you deserve a reward. Can you walk?” “…Yes.” To be honest, the ankle where the poison goblin had bitten him wasn’t in great shape, but he thought he could manage to walk. “Follow me.” Khalid left those words behind and walked ahead. Yudit limped after him. By the time Yudit stepped out of the room, Khalid was already far down the…
