Chapter 34 Count Lotero's complexion darkened. He had expected that. But he also knew that without revealing his hand, he couldn't expect any further help. Count Lotero glanced at Lady Yurasel. *'Old fox. If you're old, just die quietly.'* Count Lotero forced a smile. *'She probably won't bite at any ordinary bait.'* To catch a wily old fox, you need an unconventional lure. Count Lotero took a deep breath and spoke. "......The truth is, the ruby mine is at stake. It's a mine that…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 33 "Yes, that is correct." "In that process, you could be put in danger, my lady." Roselle pondered deeply. That was also true. If something happened to Lotero, Roselle could also be affected. But they say a wealthy family lasts for three generations even in ruin. As long as she had Lotero's assets, she'd have no problem making a living. Unless they had a system of collective punishment, Roselle wouldn't be arrested either. She was even making a statement like this, so would the…

- Chapter 32 "Roselle." "Reston. And I greet His Highness the Crown Prince. I am Roselle of Lotero." At Roselle's words, the surprised Aileen also bowed her head and gave her respects. "I am Aileen of Sphelin. It is an honor to meet you, Your Highness the Crown Prince." "Not at all. I am pleased to meet you both, my ladies. However, it seems this is not the time for conversation. I heard that Lady Lotero has something to discuss with Reston. Lady Aileen, please step aside for a while and…

- Chapter 31 Count Lotero was waiting for me alone in his office. Count Lotero welcomed me with delight. "Roselle!" "You called for me, Father." "Yes, about that." Count Lotero came around from his desk and grasped my hand. "Aren't you close with Duke Reston and the Dowager Duchess of Chescant?" "Yes, Father. That would be beneficial to Lotero..." "So, this time, you must help your father." Count Lotero cut me off and spoke urgently. I have to help Lotero? What on…

- Chapter 30 Lindberg stared at me with a strangely subdued expression. For the first time, Lindberg felt unfamiliar to me. In a low voice, he spoke. "Lady Roselle seems to have many close people, and many people she wants to become close with." "Humans are social animals, aren't they……? Is something wrong? Did I make a mistake?" Lindberg was somewhat like the first friend I'd made here. Besides, since Lindberg had always played an important role in the novel, I didn't want to grow…

Chapter 43 If Good Comes, Evil Does Not; If Evil Comes, Good Does Not (1) Leaving the always bustling Lichfield Square and riding a carriage east for about 10 minutes. The city’s noise subsided at some point, and soon a completely different landscape unfolded. Commonly called ‘Maple Garden’. It wasn’t an actual garden, but a name attached to Nortaris’s emerging affluent district. Carriages and vehicles traveled over well-maintained roads without a single cracked or split brick. Beneath…- 2.8 M • Completed
Chapter 45 A Commoner’s Sample “I’m thinking about confiscating all the rings.” The morning in the Royal Domain of Gongwang began with Ruri’s grumbling. She approached with a displeased expression, making her complaint known. For Ferda, who was in the middle of breakfast, it was an unexpected statement. “I see.” So, Ferda responded absentmindedly. “The workshops you brought in aren’t listening to me at all. Is it really that difficult to follow a…- 2.5 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 44 A Difference in Perspective Ferda returned safely to Valdrova Castle. Arwen, after seeing him through the gates, immediately headed back to Count Consilius’s territory. At the main gate, Ruri greeted Ferda and his party. “How was the journey?” she asked in a formal tone. Ferda responded just as formally. “It was comfortable. No attacks, and with the escort, it wasn’t boring.” “I see. But it seems like you’ve gained an extra person compared to when you…

- Chapter 43 I’m Angry Ruri’s action of breaking into the imperial palace might have seemed impulsive. However, in reality, it was a fairly rational action based on logic. Destroying the magic barrier and gathering all the mages and knights was meant to make them understand the seriousness of the situation and become aware. It was a small warning to show what could happen if a dragon’s consort were injured. That was why Ruri revealed everything she normally kept hidden. Her tail, her…

- Chapter 42 The Dragon’s Wrath In the Valdrova Duchy, within the grand halls of Valdrova Castle, Ruri was delivering her daily report to Valdrova. “Lord Ferda has safely arrived in the empire and is currently in discussions at the imperial palace,” Ruri reported, updating Valdrova on Ferda’s movements. Valdrova let out a sigh of relief, a puff of smoke escaping her nostrils. -That’s good. I’m glad he arrived safely. “I’ve told you several times, haven’t I? Ordinary monsters…
