Chapter 06 *Tak tak tak tak.* As Roelia chopped on the cutting board, the horrific memory flashed through her mind. *"N-no, Father! P-please...!"* *"Run, sis!"* *"Fuck, how dare you bastards conspire...!"* A father trying to sell his daughter to a brothel, a brother holding onto the father to help his sister escape. Pushed back by the grown Dietrich's strength, the father, enraged, picked up a liquor bottle and struck his son's head. *Clang!* Dietrich staggered, his head and the…- 1.5 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 05 The frightened woman stiffened so much she barely dared to breathe, crouching for a long while, but fortunately, no presence was felt from beyond the forest. At that moment, a butterfly fluttered from somewhere and flew into the dark forest. Despite her tension, there was nothing inside the forest. It seemed the resting birds had simply been startled by the wind and taken flight all at once. Letting out a long, pent-up breath, Roelia finally registered the sky tinged with orange.…

- Chapter 04 Midas flinched momentarily at the terrifying glare, but that didn't make his discontent disappear. The royal family's audacity in privately mobilizing the knights of this great Ademors Temple was bad enough, but he also couldn't understand the Pope urging them to do it. No matter how much the power of the religious order had waned, 'Ademors' was originally the first master of this land. Gargo was a kingdom established by humans invited to that land, yet at some point, the invited…

- Chapter 03 Ansgarde rose from her seat, still disheveled, and took a small lamp as she slipped out into the corridor. Beyond her flimsy nightgown, Ansgarde's sensual silhouette shimmered tantalizingly. Though she was now thirty, she looked no different from when she was twenty—no, she had become even more voluptuous than she was back then. --- *'But Your Majesty, no matter how good the medicine you take, how can fruit be borne if the seed does not take root?'* --- Ansgarde…

- Chapter 02 The oldest nation in the Northern Continent, Gargo, had a beautiful and mysterious founding myth. The Primordial Lightning Strike. When a massive bolt of lightning struck this land, the world that had been one was split into three, creating the continent. Among them, from the sparks that flew as the lightning bolt embedded in the largest land shattered, two men were born. They were Ademors, who bore the power of the Sun, and Stellius, who received the power of the Moon and…

- Chapter 01 All this misfortune began on my 18th birthday. My father was a gravedigger who made his living by selling corpses. The shabby graveyard on the outskirts had far more corpses of unknown origin than those whose identities could be verified. Among them, the rotting or severely damaged bodies were burned, and the intact parts were cut off and sold as livestock feed. Of course, it was illegal, but when farms urgently needed high-quality feed for their pigs, they would sometimes pay…

Chapter 60 When I remained silent instead of answering, the Count smiled as if I were endearing and said. "Anyway, after that, I hired Hypnos to spread dreams among the residents, so they wouldn't have nightmares." "...I recall Icarvel saying it's not brainwashing." "It's not brainwashing. I merely gifted them dreams that let them spend the present contentedly." A happy dream where, upon waking, the previous day's dissatisfactions vanished. Just that alone made humans fairly…- 2.1 M • Completed
- Chapter 59 *'In front of the Countess, I can become an ordinary person, not a Hero.'* As a hopeful future came into view, the horrific past she had sealed away in a corner of her heart surfaced. Monica Cornwall. She was a Hero. A true Hero who had fully inherited the Cornwall family's abilities. But she had never once been grateful for the Hero's power. Because of the special eyes she possessed. --- --- Among the various powers of Heroes, the ability passed down through the…

- Chapter 58 "Ah—so much happened." Gazing outside at the rain, I began my story with a sigh. Loaz, who was perched on the wardrobe reading a book again today, gestured with his chin for me to go on. "I met assassins in the Marquis's territory, and also met this strange girl who's supposed to be a hero..." I candidly poured out all the stories I'd been holding onto. Of course, I left out the existence of the shadow I met at the very end. Since I couldn't even tell the Count, there was…

- Chapter 57 Time passed, and I boarded the carriage. The castle was still peaceful. The only evidence that an intruder had been there—my clothes and the dagger hilt—melted away in the sunlight when it was time for me to rise. My neck was also unmarked. There were no scars, not even a trace of blood. *'It wasn't a dream.'* But I remembered it clearly. The moment I felt the blood drain from my body and witnessed the darkness—a sensation of death I could never forget even after…
