Chapter 9 The emperor rested both arms on the desk, interlaced his fingers, and propped his chin on top of them. In that posture he stared at me clearly. “…….” His eyes were the same as the countless gazes I had received while walking all the way here. Condemnation, censure, reproach. And contempt. In that moment, something inside my head went *snap*—and broke. “Is that all you have to say?” At the same time an indescribable emotion surged up, and my mouth opened of its…- 2.7 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 8 I staggered backward, then turned my back to flee. “……!” But people were approaching from that direction as well. ‘With this body…….’ I bit down on my lip. Even setting aside the fact that I was a child, with these unsteady legs, any attempt to run would be pointless. “Princess Regina has escaped! Help us!” Please, just shut up already. I glared at the woman who was still shouting, seething with rising anger. The reason I had revealed myself as…

- Chapter 7 ‘By the way, she really doesn’t seem to know.’ At first I thought she couldn’t recognize me because I was dirty, but it seemed Kisella didn’t know me at all. Had they never met before Regina was imprisoned? Was that why she couldn’t recognize her own half-sister? Or had it been a memory from when she was too young, and she had simply forgotten? “Thank you for lending me the bathroom and the clothes.” At my words, Kisella smiled brightly. “I’ll return the…

- Chapter 6 Just like in the original, the shackles that had bound my ankles came undone the moment the door opened. That was precisely why I had only longed for the door to open and paid no attention to the things that actually bound me. Kisella and Yunid stared blankly at me for a while, then turned and walked away. I hurriedly followed behind them, and they did not stop me. “Where are we going?” Two pairs of round eyes turned to look at me at the same time. “My…

- Chapter 5 Somehow I felt like crying. At the same time, I was curious. How had Regina been able to listen to their receding footsteps over and over again? How had she been able to endure, time after time, the despair of being left alone once more? I wanted to ask the hallucination of young Regina, but the hallucination had already vanished at some point. ‘……That’s because it was a novel.’ Holding back tears made my nose run, so I sniffed. Yes. It was possible only because it…

- Chapter 4 How much time had passed? “Ah.” I abruptly sat up. ‘I should have asked for daily necessities too.’ The thought only came to me belatedly. Just how obsessed with food had I been that all I could talk about was food? “Hey! You! Daily necessities too! Daily necessities!” I urgently shouted with the small amount of strength I had recovered while resting, but the men had already left. “……” Listening to only my own voice echoing back, I flopped down…

- Chapter 3 The calm, composed voice held neither mockery nor hostility. Yet an endlessly deep malice could be felt in it, and my blood ran cold. Whether I was “Regina” or “myself,” that woman had no intention of letting me out of here. She wanted me to stay locked up and die. “Who are you?” The sharp voice that left my mouth echoed through the space. The woman sighed. “That’s better than going mad.” Then she said something completely unrelated to my…

Chapter 23 She dimly realized that the butterfly had "bewitched" the man, but she didn’t want to dwell on it. Above all, there was no time to think deeply about such things. She had to hurry before the knight’s companions arrived. Going toward the stairs meant she might run into someone, so she urgently rushed toward the window in the second-floor hallway. Beyond the small window—barely wide enough for her slender body to squeeze through—the clear sky seemed to beckon to her. She thought she…- 1.5 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 15 Lizbeth inwardly snickered before looking at the noblewoman standing before her. Should I thank her for setting the stage for me? Though the young lady herself had no idea she was doing so. “And… were you just speaking about my honor, Lady?” “……” “Of course, I may have appeared rather reckless to you.” Lizbeth gave a weak smile. To anyone watching, it was a completely harmless and sorrowful smile. But the young lady standing before her flinched. Because up close,…

- Chapter 14 The banquet hall was bustling with noise. Since this was a banquet hosted by Marchioness Rosemary, a famous social butterfly, everyone of any real standing in high society had attended. “I heard Lady Lizbeth Armierosha is coming to the banquet today.” “She really has no shame. How can she have the nerve to show her face at a place like this?” “Have you read the First Imperial Prince’s love letter? Oh, it was so heartbreaking that even I nearly cried! And that young…
