Chapter 04 "Why!" "The Emperor's orders prohibit the entry of commoners." At the mention of Pern V's command, Ernst's expression hardened. It was as clear as day what Pern V was trying to achieve with such an order. He was isolating Irene's surroundings to force her to submit to him. Having reached this conclusion, Ernst bypassed the guards and approached the captain of the guard directly. "I am no commoner! I am returning from an errand for Her Highness the Princess!" "Show me…- 1.5 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 03 "Which will you choose, Your Highness?" At Ernst's urging, Irene tightly closed her violet eyes. All she had done was declare, upon waking to this new life, that she would no longer live the same life as before. "Sir Ernst." "Yes, Your Highness." "If it were you, Sir... what would you do?" "……." Irene looked at Ernst. Whatever it was, only one answer remained for Irene. To keep the words she had spoken with her own lips. However, it seemed that asking the…

- Chapter 01 Chirp chirp― Chirp chirp chirp― The sound of birdsong by my ear. Sunlight breaking into fine fragments and falling beside my pillow. A room decorated quite cozily. Bedding that smelled soft and warm. It was a morning far too peaceful. But there was something that didn't match this tranquility: Irene's mood. “Why do I feel so crappy?” That was hardly a fitting remark for a princess of a nation to make. “Oh my? Your Highness? Are you…

- Chapter 02 "I will take care of my own marriage, Your Majesty." At Irene's declaration, which was like a declaration of war, the eyes of Fern V and Empress Laila widened. The ministers were no different. Receiving the gaze of everyone in the audience chamber, Irene straightened her hunched shoulders and chest. "Irene?" "And I must become Emperor, Your Majesty." "……!" It was Irene's second declaration. The gazes of everyone in the audience chamber could not help but turn…

Chapter 6 “You confirmed all the terms before purchasing, Miss Dia.” “I didn’t…! I mean, yes, I am Dia, but I didn’t do it. Like, I’m Dia and Dia is me, but I didn’t buy the building—” Vendia’s tongue was all tangled. She had no idea what she was even saying anymore. “Oh, and for your reference, this mansion has—” “Oh ho. So you’ve finally shown up?” A sharp voice cut through the air before the broker could finish his sentence. Vendia turned her head…- 1.2 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 15 “Tsk.” Vendia clicked her tongue. She had already known, but now the very depths of Baldini’s true nature were laid bare for all to see. To look down on someone and jump to wild conclusions simply because it didn’t fit within his own narrow worldview—how pathetic. “Y-You there! W-watch your mouth!” “Chris, it’s fine. As you can see, I’m just being greedy.” Vendia shrugged as she held Chris back, who was about to lash out. She had handled a violent…

- Chapter 12 “Chris! Are you okay?” Vendia rushed over to Chris and quickly grabbed his wrist, stopping him from hiding his hand. “A-Ah, I’m fine!” “What do you mean you’re fine? You’re bleeding all over!” She was horrified. Bright red blood was flowing from a clean tear along his index finger. It seemed that while working again, he had tried to remove an old fence and had been deeply scratched by the thorns tangled in the worn wood. “I’ll go get the first aid…

- Chapter 13 That night. “I-I’m sorry. Ugh…” A man in a black hood knelt down, groaning in pain from a kick to the shin. It was the dead of night. Everyone was asleep, and even the moon was hidden behind clouds, casting not a single glimmer of light. A little ways from the mansion, on an empty road devoid of life, a man stood, looking down at the one kneeling before him. “Sigh…” The man let out a frustrated sigh and swept his long bangs back. Between his bandaged index…

- Chapter 14 Vendia still couldn’t grasp the situation, so she remained where she was, observing them. “Hahaha. I was talking about the matter you mentioned before.” “What… oh, the disposal project?” “Yes, yes! That’s right. If this goes well, you’ll really vote for our family, won’t you…?” “Hey. Are you doubting me right now?” The marquis, Baldini, looked visibly annoyed. The officer panicked and immediately bowed deeply. “No, sir! I’m sorry! How could I…

- Chapter 11 “……” Vendia stared blankly at the perfectly repaired wall in the second-floor hallway. Contrary to what she expected, Ron turned out to be a reasonable man. She had planned to nag him relentlessly until he got it fixed, but as soon as the sun rose, he called in a repairman and had it patched up neatly. Only the exact spot he had broken. He had repaired it so flawlessly there wasn’t even a crack left to nitpick. Honestly, it was hard to tell where the damage had…
