Sharti's vision was suddenly blocked, causing her to flinch and step back as Ren simultaneously took a step toward the young man. The turquoise eyes visible between his bandages flashed threateningly. "If you're from that village, you might be carrying the disease. Should you really be grabbing someone's hand?" Ren, who had already snatched Sharti's hand away, growled at the young man. Perhaps due to his size, just facing him created an overwhelming presence. The young man was too frightened to answer…-

Sensing danger, Tein slowly turned his body toward Sharti. Then he quickly ran to Sharti and hid behind her. "...?" Sharti looked at Tein with a puzzled expression. Tein, who was tightly holding onto her robe, looked like a kitten raising its fur. It was a gaze that showed vigilance rather than fear. 'How cute.' Sharti stroked Tein's head with a pleased expression. Feeling excluded from the atmosphere, Ren cleared his throat. He needed to quickly gain Tein's support. "Perfect timing. Someone has…

They Have No Choice But to Die Even as the Tower Master, he couldn't just fly straight to the imperial palace. He had to obtain permission through proper procedures to enter the imperial palace. Meeting the Emperor required a separate set of procedures. Until now, he had lived receiving exceptional treatment as the Tower Master and hadn't needed to worry about such procedures, but now that he was essentially a noble with territory in the Great Empire of Neweiton, he paid attention to his conduct. "I'll…

Payment Sharti walked along with heavy steps. The heat that had been swirling in her head just moments ago had dissipated slightly, leaving her feeling somewhat dazed. '......I was, confessed to.' It was something completely unrealistic, yet she had received a confession. And from a completely unexpected person at that. The Sharti that Ashu knew was just a doctor with a terrible voice, burn scars on her body, who hid her face with a hood and lived in seclusion. Yet despite this, Ashu had gathered…

First Snow Ren's expression didn't particularly change. It was the usual expressionless face he often showed. Sharti, sensing a crisis for some reason, quickly shook her head. "......That's not it! N-no, it's not!" She denied it first without even listening to the rest of Ren's words. Her heart fluttered in a different way than before. Ren's eyes narrowed slightly. 'C-calm down.' When Ren mentioned or got involved with Ashu, he often became sensitive and misinterpreted situations with personal…

With distrust in Ashu's village deepening, and Sharti having a seizure on top of that, it was only natural for Ren to be overly sensitive about her safety. Sharti was worried too. 'But he's not forcing me to go with him, so it should be fine.' It might have been a naive thought, but since Ren was being sensitive enough for both of them, Sharti felt calm instead. 'It's not like I don't have weapons, unlike Ren.' Sharti pointed at her bag to the still anxious Ren. After rummaging through the bag and…

Both Ashu's grandfather and the village chief were speechless. Their momentary shock at her appearance and demeanor being different from what they had imagined quickly gave way to being stunned by Sharti's clean face. So she hadn't been hiding terrible burn scars on her face after all. Sharti tightly gripped her hand resting on her thigh under the table. Seeing others clearly, not hidden by hoods, felt strange and frightening. Do I really have to go this far? An accusatory echo mocking her foolishness…

Sharti looked curiously at the rock Ren was pointing to. After confirming there was no one around, she carefully opened her mouth. "Where are you planning to go? Surely you're not thinking of going to the log cabin alone?" "That's exactly what I'm planning." Ren looked at Sharti with eyes that seemed to say it was no big deal to go back and forth dozens of times. "We only have this one water container, and it's more efficient for me to go alone than for both of us to go." Ren spoke casually and…

By the time they arrived at the old log cabin, Ren clicked his tongue in disappointment. The excitement that had stirred in his heart from the scenery Sharti had shown him had calmed long ago, and what he was now conscious of was her hand holding his. 'We're already here.' Once they entered the house, he would naturally have to let go of her hand. More accurately, Sharti would be the first to let go of his hand. 'This is driving me crazy.' Even though Ren knew he should let go of her hand to prove he…

Sharti nodded, somewhat dazed. <Yes. He's a man.> "Oh, no, not just gender. He's the opposite sex," Virena clarified. Virena was discussing the difference between same-sex and opposite-sex relationships. Sharti tapped the notepad with her pencil. 'Perhaps she's asking if I've ever thought of him as a man?' Fortunately, Sharti wasn't completely clueless about these matters. Sharti asked herself internally: 'Have I ever felt that way?' It would be a lie to say never, but it was too ambiguous…
