Chapter 17 I gave Ian a brief glare for being so clumsy, then turned to Verity. “What happened to the angel?” “Your wish was granted perfectly, Miss.” Verity shrugged. “The angel has terrible fashion sense, but in terms of strength, they're one of the strongest. If I had to compare them, they're on the same level as the Lords.” “But Ian Oppa didn't seem scared?” Compared to when we summoned the demons before, Ian had been noticeably calmer. Well... except for being…-

Chapter 6 “Yes, Mrs. Clozier.” The steward’s assistant, nodding vigorously, pointed toward the two-story red-brick house before them. It was a cozy-looking home, its entire wall covered in ivy. “I heard from Mr. Bolin, the head steward, that you were looking for a boarding house. There’s likely no place in Blauberg more satisfying than this.” He gave an awkward chuckle and quietly added, “It’s the boarding house my mother runs.” “Is that so?” At Marien’s vague reply, he…-

Chapter 44 Aunt Elba, Ian, and Verity went inside the prison cell. Of course, I tried to follow them, but Ian pushed me back with a stern voice and told me to wait outside. "Why are you trying to watch something like this up close?" "Please listen to Ian, Miss. People in power are supposed to let their subordinates handle dirty work like this while they watch comfortably." In the end, I stood outside the cell with the two dogs and watched the truth serum being administered. Ian and Verity…

Chapter 9 “…….” A brief silence fell over the room. It was not a comfortable silence. Nicholas stared intently with sharp eyes at Simon, then Marien, and back at Simon again. The moment he thought his mouth twisted in displeasure, a rough, sandpaper-like voice burst out. “Chief, this is…….” “Times are changing. The capital police department already has ten female officers on duty. We can’t afford to lag behind forever, can we, Nicholas?” Simon explained in a gentle,…

Chapter 10 Ah, I’m Doomed. I’m Really Doomed With that, I returned to Ascan, holding the non-alcoholic drinks as planned. The place he was in wasn’t far, so he probably saw the scene a moment ago when I had scolded the nobles. I had no reason to hide what I had done, so I handed him one of the two drinks I brought without saying a word. Ascan looked surprised, as if he hadn’t expected one for himself, but he bowed politely and accepted the cup. Taking a sip, the beautifully colored drink was…-

Chapter 3 A few days earlier... The day I was punched by the guards. Hebenia made a wish to the demon. "Please save me... and all the prisoners." "Do you want me to let you leave this place?" The demon asked again, as always, after being summoned while taking a bath. "No." "We're staying here." "I don't understand. If you stay here, you'll definitely die..." "The prisoners are precious to me." "But they're also criminals who committed crimes." They had to serve the rest of their…

11. I'd Rather Have You Standing "Ha... Wow... What kind of... Argh, seriously..." He let out a string of meaningless, empty groans one after another. Then, realizing he was still pointing his finger straight up at the ceiling, he snapped his arm right back down. His tightly shut lips twitched. "'Well then, bye'... Give me a break." The image of the woman smiling brightly and vanishing like a ghost flashed across his mind. "Phew... This nightmare of a woman shows up in my dreams just to mess with…-

Chapter 2 "Ahhh!" Something grabbed my ankle. At the same time, I dropped the bundle of branches I was carrying. The branches crashed onto the ground with a loud clatter. Only then did my scattered thoughts finally return. A... a demon...? It was hard to deny it. Everything happening to me was already so unrealistic that I had no reason to believe otherwise. Gathering my courage, I slowly turned around. The moment I did, our eyes met. It seemed the demon had been watching me the…

Chapter 3 Taking Over the Farm(2) TL: Hanguk My dad and I arrived at the USDA Agricultural Support Office in Napa County, located on the outskirts of Napa Valley, California. In the bright afternoon sunlight, the words ‘United States Department of Agriculture’ shone above the entrance of the small brick building. When we stepped inside, a cool gust of air conditioning greeted us along with a neat and orderly atmosphere. “Welcome. How may I help you?” An employee with a bright and…-

Chapter 50 Crape Myrtle Fever. Like chickenpox or measles in Korea, it was a terrifying epidemic that could become fatal if treatment was delayed. However, if patients took medicine regularly during the early stages, they recovered quickly. After that, they became immune and would never catch it again. That was why, for the people of this world, Crape Myrtle Fever was considered a rite of passage that everyone experienced once during childhood. 'But that may no longer be true.' The…
