Chapter 13 I pulled myself together again. Right now, saving the child who had been unfairly separated from her mother was far more important than my childish jealousy and worries. "Big Sister Libby, Aunt Dallis, you heard everything, right? We're heading home now. We'll call again once we enter the forest." With tears in her voice, Aunt Dallis pleaded desperately. "I'll protect her with my life." Ian answered in a firm, reassuring voice. The video call ended. I slowly turned to…-

Chapter 12 As we carefully opened the door... A chilling cold filled the room. It was a lonely little room with nothing but an old bed and a worn-out wardrobe. Aunt Dallis' young daughter was sleeping on the old bed, curled up tightly beneath a single thin blanket. It was obvious she hadn't been cared for properly. Her hair was tangled into a mess. The joints of her fingers and even her heels were dry and covered in white, cracked skin. Verity quietly muttered, "Baron Deste should also…

Chapter 11 "I can sense a Demon's presence. Hmm..." Verity kept clicking his tongue in annoyance, clearly displeased by something. 'Looks like Baron Deste made a contract with a Demon in the worst possible way.' It was shocking enough that Baron Deste, who was supposed to be dead, was actually alive. But he had even made a contract with a Demon. He definitely didn't seem like husband material. "Is summoning a Demon really that easy?" "What an insulting thing to…

Chapter 10 Hebenia looked at the owner of the herb shop and asked, "So, Sister-in-law, these herbs are really expensive, right?" "They're legendary herbs that people say went extinct. These are worth whatever price you ask." The herb shop owner put on his reading glasses, which hung from a string around his neck, and moved his abacus. "So, this is the price." "...Shouldn't we be the ones naming the price since we're selling them?" Hebenia frowned and stared at the abacus. "Veri— no,…

Chapter 9 The Deste territory was right next to the exile settlement. 'That's really suspicious.' My instincts immediately told me something was wrong. 'If we visit the Deste territory, maybe we'll find out more. Like the real reason the exile family was framed...' Now I knew that the exile family had been falsely accused. But was the entire country really willing to go this far just to make them mine ore? 'That alone doesn't make sense.' Before leaving the Primeval Forest, I called…

Chapter 8 According to Verity, he did not have the ability to open this barrier. “But with Young Lady’s Opening and Closing ability, you can.” “But if I open the barrier again…” “I already heard from His Lordship that you coughed up blood and collapsed.” Thankfully, Verity did not force me to do it recklessly. Instead, the school-uniform demon patiently explained the trick. “Don’t try to open the entire barrier. Just open enough for the three of us to pass through.…

Chapter 7 “...What?” I froze and asked again. “E-Executed? On the spot?” “Transmigrators are always talking about the original story and whatever else. They destroy the world's order, the flow of fate, and causality however they please.” “If one transmigrator appears, at least ten thousand people end up suffering.” “They really think they're the main character of the world.” The uniformed Demon shook his head with a troubled smile. “There's an organization called…

Chapter 6 In the comic, Havi had just awakened her power, just like me. Beside her floated a mummy-like fairy that looked as if it had been thoroughly dried in the fires of hell. Snap! I immediately closed the book. The Bleached Demon looked at me with a proud smile. “Well?” “Isn't it amazing?” “......” A Demon was still a Demon. The next morning... “Wake up! Get up!” The Bleached Demon woke everyone by banging a soup ladle…

Chapter 5 After listening to the Bleached Demon's lecture for quite a while... Ah... What should I eat for lunch? Just as I started using the skill I often relied on during my office days—pretending to listen while my mind wandered— “You little brats!” Bang! The Bleached Demon suddenly shouted and slammed his fist onto a table, veins bulging on his hand. There hadn't even been a table there before. The moment his fist came down... A table simply…

Chapter 4 After everyone had cried their hearts out... “Hebenia, are you hungry?” “We made some stew.” “Oh dear, look how pale you are. Come eat and get your strength back.” Maybe they felt embarrassed after crying in front of me. The adults quickly took me downstairs to the dining room, saying it was time to eat. They carried me the whole way. As soon as I sat down, a bowl of cream stew was placed in front of me. It was full of meat and vegetables. Just looking at it…
