Darion asked with difficulty. Markel scowled. “Do you think I’d be crazy enough to put that in? I told you it was the herbalist who put it in wrong from the start.” Darion closed his eyes. Markel had caused this matter. But that too had been an action for his sake. He saw Markel’s figure ruined by interrogation. Darion fell into thought. Whether Yudit survived or not, Darion was a dead man anyway. He had made up his mind to take everything upon himself and…- 396.9 K • Completed
- “Fine. Keep that in mind. For the deep regard you have toward your friend, I will look after Markel myself, so you had better keep today’s conversation a secret.” Yudit spoke in a gentle coaxing tone. “You seem very drunk, so you had better return now. I will have the remaining wine sent to your quarters through a servant.” “Than-thank you.” Darion bobbed his head again and again as he gave thanks. He rose from his seat and staggered out of the dining hall. Yudit watched…

- “Then we adopt this plan.” After a long meeting the plan was finalized. Yudit and everyone else let out a sigh of relief. Once they learned that if a plan was good it would be accepted regardless of rank, the captains each rushed to propose theirs, and among them five useful ones were chosen. After every detail of those was examined the choices narrowed to two. A secret vote decided between the two, and in the end Darion’s plan was chosen. People clapped, the hall quickly filled with thunderous…

- Edmond looked at Yudit in confusion. Could this person make such a cold expression too? When he met Yudit again, he wanted to say he was sorry for daring to test him, he wanted to sincerely apologize, but with Yudit interrogating him like this, the apology he wanted to say disappeared. “Didn’t you say I just need to get my father’s permission?” “So, did you get the permission?” “Yes! I got it!” “Who can I confirm that fact with?” “You don’t need to confirm it. I…

- Selena’s words made Yudit turn around. The pillar had collapsed along with the door, blocking the only exit. Several people near the exit had been struck by the falling debris and were groaning on the ground. No one had died instantly, but some were writhing in pain, creating a hellish scene. The sight made not only Selena and Yudit freeze momentarily but even Khalid. “The terrace, let’s go to the terrace!” Yudit recalled the terrace where he had been speaking with Khalid. However, the…

- “Do you have some business?” “I want to see the overall scenery of the territory. Do you know a place?” “There is, but I do not recommend looking at the scenery.” Shane spoke hesitantly. He seemed worried about showing the cruel scenery of war. But Yudit spoke without concern. “Really? Can I ask you to guide me?” Shane walked ahead without a word. At the end of the long corridor there was a spiral staircase. “This is the staircase leading to the tower.” “Yes,…

- “Are the reinforcements still not here!?” Someone shouted loudly. They had joined up with the soldiers on the mountain, but the enemies’ resistance was still fierce. On top of that, the mountain was enemy territory. Soldiers were falling one by one to arrows fired from who knows where. But if they retreated, a rain of arrows would pour down on them. In that critical moment, someone shouted again. “At least tell us from which direction they are coming!” Yudit turned his head. Not…

- “Medic, over here!” Yudit called for a medic. But the soldiers were packed too tightly, so the medic could not reach easily. Noban, who had sat down, stood up again. “This much… is fine.” But soon Noban coughed and spat blood. His lung seemed injured. The soldiers panicked and did not know what to do. ‘When a superior is hurt or dies, the soldiers are affected far more than expected. So please, always stay somewhere safe.’ Yudit realized Noban’s words. A superior getting hurt…

- At Yudit’s words, the soldiers hurried to set up the catapults. Since they had crossed several mountains, the catapults were made of lightweight material that could be disassembled. They had brought them from Devlin Castle, and since there were many hills in the area, these catapults were said to be used often. When the soldiers made noise setting them up, Breda Castle also responded. Bells rang endlessly, and archers lined up densely on the walls. Then one soldier ran up pale-faced and spoke. “The…

- Yudit immediately rose from his seat. He was already armed in preparation for such a time, so there was nothing to gather. When he stepped outside the tent, flames were blazing on all sides. Yudit looked around with a blank expression. The screams of people, the clash of swords, even the smell of burning were all too vivid. “Stay alert and keep the formation…!” Before he could finish speaking, Yudit collided with someone and fell over. “If you don’t run and just follow training, you…
