Chapter 82 Absentmindedly, Lionel placed his hand over his left chest, then belatedly asked Fry: “Who knows about the prophecy?” “Within the temple, only Archbishop Sage seems to know. In the underworld, it’s just Nyx and me,” Fry replied. Lionel nodded. “Keep it secret. No one must know until the world does.” “Should we just steal the tablet?” Fry suggested. Lionel paused, thinking it over, then shook his head. “That would alert the Loheim family. They’d try to retrieve…- 1.2 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 81 “A moderate affection… is when you can let go immediately if the other person says they want to break up… But isn’t love when you lie down and refuse to part, even if they want to leave?” “Back in school, when you were dating, did you always turn away immediately when someone wanted to break up?” “No. I was always the one doing the kicking away.” “Why did you kick them away?” “They all complained, crying, that I said I wanted to focus on sword training rather…

- Chapter 80 “Yes, that’s correct.” “Why on earth?!” “It was the Archbishop’s request.” “The Archbishop…?” “Archbishop Sage. He was the mentor of Bishop Nicol.” Hearing Archbishop Sage’s name, I felt like I almost understood, yet my mind was spinning. “Why would the Archbishop make such a request to my parents… Ah.” According to Nyx’s investigation, my parents had smuggled Bishop Nicol out of exile in the year I was born. And because I was born through a…

- Chapter 79 “We are all citizens of the Empire! If you treat the troubles of the North as solely their problem and look the other way, how can you hope to call for help when similar crises strike your own lands in the future?” “We are one! If you turn your back on the North in its time of need, you are no citizen of the Empire!” The Emperor lent his full support to Duke Rohaim, who boldly proclaimed this. And why wouldn’t he? Rohaim was taking the lead in doing what needed…

- Chapter 78 “Ugh… Hngh.” Lionel’s horse obeyed his commands perfectly, but its massive black eyes still blazed with a wild intensity, as if daring anyone to make a single mistake. “C-Commander… is that horse really… okay?” “Not okay? And what, you’d tell me it went ‘neigh’… or ‘grrr’ instead?” Of course, that was impossible. In the end, everyone silently agreed through subtle glances: it was better not to question the nature of this beast any further. Meanwhile,…

- Chapter 77 What on earth was the title of that book he was reading, exuding such refinement and dignity? No, no… maybe it’s just the title. It could be a philosophy, psychology, or humanities book. …Could it really be? While he wrestled with that thought, Lionel seized the moment to ask Beric an unexpected question, as if it were the perfect time. “Sir Beric, was your marriage one of love or an arranged union?” “Huh? Well… it started as an arranged marriage, but we met before the…

- Chapter 76 Climbing sheer cliffs and navigating treacherous canyons, they finally reached the towering peak of Mount Heyton. “Piiit, pitt! Piiit!” Ruda, tiny as ever, flapped her little wings energetically, calling out for someone nearby. “Grr! Ker-heng!” Soon enough, a familiar bark answered her. Hovering midair, Ruda realized that the creature below was the wolf cub Lionel had treated. “Piiit!” Excited, Ruda swooped down. The cub, equally thrilled, twirled in circles and jumped up…

- Chapter 75 “You didn’t even know that, did you?!” I was losing it. Seriously. What kind of bomb did this man just drop on me?! Wait… he was already the head of the underworld at that point? With a schedule that tight, even a normal visit to the underworld would’ve been impossible. So how on earth did he manage to conquer the criminal world—rumored to be the abyss of the empire—at that time? “Hold on. So you knew I requested that intel on Rio?” I asked. “Yes,” she said. The…

- Chapter 74 “Maybe…?” Sophia, Albert, and Veloz all turned their hopeful, expectant gazes toward Melania. Feeling a bit pressured by their attention, Melania decided against voicing the thought she’d just had. It was still only a hypothesis, after all. “No. Anyway, we succeeded in extracting Cecil’s magic. I think we can finally complete the magical device to track the Soul Shards.” “When do you think it’ll be finished?” “Hm… probably in three or four days.” Melania…

- Chapter 73 But I couldn’t just sit there, shedding tears like some tragic heroine. “Agá! You’re awake!” “Cecil… what on earth… why are you crying? Why are you crying?!” “What happened?!” Blinking several times in surprise at the noisy commotion all around me, my vision gradually cleared. And there, surrounding my bed, were my family, my teacher, Eunice, and my physician. “Huh…? Why is everyone gathered here?” “Why, you ask? You wicked little student,” my sister…
