Chapter 52 The black ropes surrounding the empty houses began to ripple with a bluish glow. The brighter the light became... The more violently the ropes swayed. Then, at last... They began to rise into the sky. Each rope stopped at a different height. The future fire station stopped at the height of three stories. The library rose even higher, about five stories. And the training grounds, which had been marked last... Stopped at an even greater height. Streams of light poured down…- 1.9 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 51 As soon as I heard that the flames had turned white... A strange certainty filled my mind. 'Huh... Could it be that Libby Unni has become stronger too?' The reason that thought came to me was because of something I had learned in science class back in school. 'Flames change color depending on their temperature.' Most people think of fire as being red. But surprisingly, red flames are actually the coolest. The hotter a flame becomes... The whiter it burns. Just as I…

Chapter 60 "W-what..." The woman glared viciously at Seo-ah. "She ran off after stealing my money, and now she's dead! My money!" "Ha..." Seo-ah swayed on her feet. Young-ran's end was so fittingly her. Before Seo-ah could collapse from the sheer shame and heartbreak, Taehyuk rushed over and caught her in his arms. Held tightly against his chest, Seo-ah lost consciousness, hot tears streaming down the corners of her eyes. Seo-ah couldn't clearly remember what happened after that. A mob of creditors…- 885.7 K • Completed
Chapter 10 “Dragon’s Breath.” A month passed. With just three days left until the engagement ceremony with Princess Valdrova, Ruri pointed at paper and a pen with a face full of discontent. “Write a vow for the engagement ceremony, please.” “Don’t they already have something for that? Some kind of template?” “They do… but…” Ruri swallowed a sigh, holding it back from escaping her throat like a dragon’s breath. “Since this is an unofficial engagement, the…- 2.5 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 59 Seo-ah turned back toward him, her voice crystal clear and radiating a sub-zero chill. He hadn't moved an inch. "No." "Would you actually listen to me if I got down on my knees?" His words made Seo-ah's eyes quiver in disbelief. This man... kneeling in front of me? His tall frame, his crisp, immaculate appearance, the disciplined yet graceful air of a trained soldier, and those dark eyes locking squarely onto hers—she hated all of it. She hated the idea of him showing weakness in front of…

- Chapter 9 “Like a Deep Lake.” After Tesalos Welcher died, all the lords boarded their carriages and left. The only ones remaining in the assembly hall were Ruri and Ferda. “You were truly remarkable.” Looking up at Ferda, Ruri clapped her small hands. “You’ve clearly demonstrated who holds the upper hand today. Incredible. Your political skills are beyond artistic—an actual masterpiece.” Then, with both hands, she raised her thumbs, performing what one might call a…

- Chapter 58 "Ah..." Seo-ah clamped both hands over her mouth. Even though Su-bin had fallen asleep after taking her medicine—and usually slept so soundly that you could carry her off on your back without her noticing—you never knew. Seo-ah clenched her jaw until her teeth ached, terrified that a single moan might slip out. Yet Taehyuk, who was sending wild, crashing waves through her body, didn't seem to care about her predicament at all. Seo-ah lifted her head weakly. His lips were trailing up from…

- 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…

- Chapter 57 "What are you talking about?" Taehyuk's brows furrowed tightly. "Forget it. It's none of my business anyway. Just go ahead and marry her. You can always have another child with her. So please..." "I asked you what you mean by that. Who on earth am I supposed to be marrying?" Taehyuk grabbed her by the shoulders, his eyes searching hers as her gaze flickered in confusion. "I heard you were marrying Jung Go-eun..." "Are you insane? Me? Leaving you and Su-bin behind?" Seo-ah bit her lip and…

- Chapter 8 “Who Will Bell the Cat?” In the world of magic, hierarchy is determined by circles. Unlike the noble world, where status and rank reign supreme, the mage world is one of the few professions where pure skill defines your place in the pecking order. And for Tesalos Welcher, today was the most humiliating day of his life. “Decent enough.” ‘Decent? What the hell does he mean by “decent”? Is he saying a 4th Circle mage is just mediocre to him?!’ Among mages, your title…
