Chapter 8 His eyes flashed open and Eunho asked back. "Yes, yes. Jiwoo noona, the goddess of our neighborhood." Jiwoo. Jiwoo... "I'm Joo Min-hyuk!" The part-timer's name could have been shit or soybean paste for all he cared. Eunho, repeating the woman's name to himself, chuckled and walked toward the shelves. He opened his phone to check the items he needed and put them in his basket, silently rolling the name Jiwoo on his lips. It's a name that suits the small, white woman…- 942.6 K • Completed
- Chapter 7 That night. Seeing Song Dong-young come out to the living room after staying late in the study, Woo Young-hee spoke sharply. "There will be no more." Her face was cold, all traces of a smile erased. "The last favor I bestowed upon that child was putting him on my family register, and that's exactly where it ends. So don't cross the line. Everything at Songhwa belongs to Ju-ho." Song Dong-young stared at Woo Young-hee without a word. "I'm warning you, even if you promote…

- Chapter 6 The man who had been holding Jiwoo as if embracing her released his arms. Then, as if startled, he forced the fallen apron into her hands and smiled. It was amusing. The way her cheeks flushed red at his light joke was entertaining, and the way her body trembled faintly despite being held gently was also entertaining. He didn't dislike this strangely ticklish situation. Just who was this woman? She was the woman who had stolen his gaze the moment he arrived at work. The moment he…

Chapter 20 Consider It a Reward As the morning sun rose, the Brelov Mansion was quiet enough that no one would have guessed that a search had been conducted the night before for a suspicious person. I, too, acted as if I knew nothing—eating breakfast and going about a normal morning—but my mind was far from calm. “The thing I used last night to save Askan was the magic stone bracelet. It’s not something you can buy just anywhere, and only the person who has engraved it can use it.” No…- 387.6 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 19 The Feeling I Felt for the First Time Askan was dragged by Tanasia’s hand into her room. On the way here, countless thoughts had raced through his mind. Should he resist? Should he run again? But he couldn’t make that choice, because he had just realized how formidable Zen was. If Zen noticed a suspicious person, he would search the area thoroughly. Breaking out of the heavily guarded Brelloff Mansion was practically impossible. Askan recalled the moment he had encountered Zen. The…

- Chapter 18 Ah, Forget It Once Ascan’s condition improved, I threw myself into solving the homework Varnen had assigned me. The method to unlock—or rather, imprint—a Magitech weapon was simple: you had to drop the caster’s blood onto the magic stone so it recognized them as the owner. Of course, resetting it wasn’t impossible, but it required the original owner of the weapon or the person who had made it. I stared intently at the magic stone bracelet on my wrist, lost in thought. “Was this…

- Chapter 17 Are You Crazy? Askan had a dream. A very long dream. He couldn’t remember it clearly, but in it, he was running for his life, pounding through a deserted house to escape his pursuers, when someone appeared. Wrapping her arms around him just as he was about to be caught, she shouted at the pursuers: —You belong to me. The memory of that line surfaced in his mind, and the moment he realized it had been a dream, his eyes snapped open as if in disbelief. The first thing he saw was a familiar…

- Chapter 16 Because You Are Mine The explanation Varnen gave scratched right at the parts I hadn’t understood before. All the questions I had been puzzling over finally fell into place, like pieces of a puzzle snapping together. I was fully focused on his words when he suddenly seemed to think that verbal explanation alone wasn’t enough. Pointing to the papers on the desk, he asked, “Can I use this?” “Of course.” I nodded willingly. Varnen picked up a pen and continued explaining, sketching…

- Chapter 15 Hello, We Meet Again? A few days had passed. During that time, Tanathia had read every book she could find on magical engineering weapons. Since the world of “Beloved Saint” inherently used elemental magic—fire, water, wind, and so on—the weapons here were unlike those used in the modern world. Weapons in this world relied on supernatural forces, such as channeling fire through magical stones or borrowing the power of the earth to create earthquakes. There were also blessed…

- Chapter 14 Utterly Alone A long time ago, a frail, tiny boy was brought into the room next to Askan’s laboratory. Countless children came and went over the weeks, so Askan had never paid much attention to who was in the adjoining room. But this boy was different. He was impossible to ignore. He talked—endlessly. “Big brother, big brother, how long have you been here?” Askan didn’t remember. All of his memories existed only in the laboratory. He could only guess that he had been there since…
