Chapter 55 Somerset stood on the stage in the hall, raising his glass. Everyone’s attention was on him as he smiled in satisfaction and began speaking. “I sincerely thank everyone for coming today.” I ignored his speech completely, focusing instead on Lisa and the suspicious movements of the nearby servants. “…And so, we’ve prepared a special cake for you all to enjoy.” At Somerset’s signal, a servant entered, pushing a tray with a massive cake on top. Alright, let’s…-

Chapter 011 “Hey, you’re here?” “……” Dedrick had always feared that mocking smile. But this time, it was different. I can do this. As he thought of the girl, the trembling in his body subsided. “I thought we’d spar for the first time in a while.” Under the guise of sparring, Somerset had always abused Dedrick. “It was just sparring, wasn’t it?” If Somerset taunted him with that excuse, Dedrick knew he couldn’t argue back. “What are you waiting for?…

Chapter 28 The table was piled high with ointments and bandages, all taken from the infirmary. “Did I take too much?” After neatly organizing the medical supplies, I worked on the homework Dedrick had given me while waiting for him. By now, I’d improved enough to write a few words without looking them up. My handwriting even seemed to be resembling Dedrick’s. ‘Of course, that’s natural since he’s teaching me.’ Dedrick’s writing was so neat and elegant that I couldn’t…

~Chapter 9~ “What is this?” “What do you mean?” “…Hell?” “It’s my domain.” Leviathan pressed his forehead gently against mine. I gazed blankly over the vast expanse before us. My short hair fluttered softly in the desolate northern wind. “Nothing but rocks?” “I told you.” A gloomy dust cloud rolled along. The lord’s territory, filled with ash-gray stone walls, resembled, frankly, the ruins of a fallen kingdom. No offense to those who lived there, of course. The…-

Chapter 23 But Reston must have heard words of praise hundreds of times, so he probably wouldn't feel particularly shy. As expected, I must have been mistaken. Just then, Reston said calmly. "I sent a few people to Muteso this morning. You won't have to worry about it anymore." "Thank you, Reston. I'll do my best tomorrow to look around the gallery. Check if there are any crooked spots, any peeling spots." "Good." The conversation and meal with Reston were quite pleasant. How should I…-

Chapter 37 A Selfish Decision “Is she really okay?” Loic ran a hand over his face, looking worried. “Aside from a bit of anemia, there are no serious issues,” the doctor, Hosen, answered nervously. Despite working at the Grand Duke’s castle for nearly a year, this was his first time seeing the Grand Duke up close. Usually, his job was to treat knights returning from battle, not to care for the lord and lady of the castle. Thanks to the Grand Duchess’s collapse, he finally had a…-

Chapter 010 An awkward silence filled in the air, so I decided to change the subject. Gripping my pen firmly, I looked at my notebook and asked, “Didi, how do you write ‘Have a lot of money’?” He smiled slightly and wrote the words in my notebook. “What about ‘Be happy’?” “Like this.” He wrote it next to ‘Have a lot of money’. I carefully copied what he wrote, adding his name, and handed it to him. “I hope you’ll be happy, Didi.” “…….” Though…

Chapter 18 The more I attacked Dedrick, the more his favor increased, so the Duchess chose to stay quiet. ‘This feels so satisfying.’ I smirked at her, but then her gaze shifted to somewhere else. Following Delani, I turned my head and saw a maid nodding before leaving her seat. ‘She must be waiting for this moment.’ Just like in the novel. And just as expected, another servant approached Dedrick. “Young Master, it’s reading time.” I quickly spoke. “Didi, don’t…

Chapter 34 The Thief “Who sent you as a spy?” “A s-spy? No! I swear I’m not! I just…” ‘Wait, is he really about to stab her?’ The sharp tip of a sword was pressed against the girl’s throat. ‘Why is he acting so aggressively all of a sudden?’ Norton was never the kindest knight, but I’d never seen him this intense before. He was completely focused on protecting the castle, and it seemed like he was ready to kill the girl at any moment. I quickly reached out and…

Chapter 54 For nobles, dancing was one of the most basic skills. It was considered a great art and also a common pastime among aristocrats. So at any party, dancing at least once was expected. In a way, it was a bit forced. “Didi, you never took dance lessons, right?” “Yeah. I only learned by watching.” “Then you might struggle if you have to dance with another noble lady.” Should I find him a dance teacher? As I was thinking about it, Dedrick shook my…
