The Nameless Child of the East Wing As I shrugged my shoulders and walked past lightly, I could hear Sabrina hissing and following behind me. "Won't you answer? Where are you going?" "If you're bored, go play with Jonathan." I don't have time to bicker with you right now. "Are you ignoring me right now?" "Finally, we're understanding each other." Following the butler to the study, I had a very peculiar experience. To survive in this harsh world ahead, I need knowledge about the reality…-

Male God, Ayphnetis "So when you're hungry and you see a feast, wouldn't you naturally crave those foods? I've been stuck in this remote corner of the capital territory for a very long time, so I haven't had the chance to see men—especially such a handsome man." "So you're saying I'm delicious food right now?" "W-well, for example, yes." I pressed down on my pounding heart and looked straight into his eyes. "So you're saying you want to eat me?" "Yes." The truth. "You mean you'd…

Let's Do It, Engagement "I don't mean to just chase you away. Rochester will guarantee your family's safety as much as possible. If you want, we can arrange a residence in a third country, not Dermeier or Resotia." No, that wasn't what I wanted. Such a complacent approach couldn't guarantee complete safety in this harsh world. Perhaps the people going to the third country he mentioned didn't include me. Until he married and inherited the duke's title, I wouldn't be able to leave this ducal…

Count Enehaz's Evening Party (1) What book was I reading then? I probably read him beautifully packaged myths about how cruelly the gods treated humans. Though he had grown much taller now, he closed his eyes and covered them with his arm just as he had back then. I slowly opened to the very first page of the book. "On a deep night when even evil spirits seemed to have fallen asleep, in a corner of the silent Imperial Palace corridor......" Leaving behind the whirlwind of thoughts and hazy…

Count Enehaz's Evening Party (2) "Duchess." "Speak." "As you know, I'm in a position where I cannot freely roam outside the ducal castle." At my words, the Duchess's brow furrowed briefly. However, her questioning expression quickly changed to one of understanding. "Don't worry about that, Lienne. No one will know that you are the young lady of the Fennel family. Since this is an invitation that came to our family, if you take it with you, no one will be able to prevent your entry." I…

Count Enehaz's Evening Party (3) The Crown Prince looked at the refreshing liquor and chuckled before glancing up at Ricardo. "Do you remember? That I used to be the best dancer in this empire?" The Crown Prince shifted his gaze from Ricardo and stared down at his toes, which wouldn't move at all. "Well, you earned that reputation because I rarely danced." At those words, the Crown Prince giggled in an uncharacteristic manner. "Is that how the story goes?" Even his follow-up words still…

Count Enehaz's Evening Party (4) Ricardo clicked his tongue without any intention of hiding it. Usually, Julian openly disregarded the Second Prince. But that was only before the Crown Prince had fallen to his knees in defeat. "Are you planning to squander all your wealth now that death is imminent?" The Crown Prince looked at Ricardo with an innocent expression, as if to ask what he meant. "Isn't that too easy a bet?" "Is it?" Unbelievably, the Crown Prince looked surprised. Of course,…

Crown Princess, Mariette Ricardo's mocking laughter made me suddenly surge with anger. Then what was I supposed to do? Was I supposed to look him in the eye and desperately pledge my love? Was I supposed to cling to his trouser legs and beg? If that's what he wanted, I could do it. But he had a woman that God himself had arranged for him, and I would never pledge my love to a man who already had a woman. Since my feelings weren't my fault, I had no intention of feeling guilty about having him in…

I Don't Remember Anything "We all know it. Fennel isn't the one God chose." "Mariette, there's no need to point out what everyone already knows." "But the situation has changed. Lady Fennel has not only helped with the manifestation but also awakening." Not many knew this fact. Ricardo's eyes narrowed. Nevertheless, Mariette didn't avoid his wary gaze. "Even so, nothing changes. We all know it clearly. That the saintess is your companion." Ricardo ran his hand through his hair, revealing…

The Ending Must Be the Emperor Ending I looked around, imagining the library that must be in the main building. Somehow, it didn't seem like it would be much different in atmosphere from this place. The central ceiling of the library was domed, so it didn't feel stuffy, and the arched staircase led up to the second floor. The bookshelves were packed tight up there as well. The books filling the library were as diverse in genre as they were vast in scale. Politics, economics, history—naturally,…
