Chapter 22. You Want to Believe, Too Grrr—. The sound of a ferocious beast echoed from deep inside the lair. If anyone else had heard it, they would have undoubtedly described it as a chilling roar of fury. However, Ruri, standing inside the lair, knew what it meant. It was Valdrova’s groan.

Chapter 25 Scents and Smells The banquet hall of Valdrova Castle. Ferda was watching the gathering knights from above. “Disgusting creatures.” Ruri, standing next to him and overlooking the banquet hall, muttered with disdain. “Your hatred for humans seems excessive,” Ferda commented. “It’s not hatred for humans.

Chapter 27 Because It’s Embarrassing Count Consillus was startled and asked again. “The Regent? You mean… Valdrova’s fiancé?” “We’re not entirely sure about the details either… But what’s clear is that he managed to convince Branch Manager Stefan Pascal. That man is not easily swayed, no matter someone’s rank or status.” “Ahh…” Count Consillus let out an involuntary sigh. Ferda Valdrova. What kind of image did he have now? It was the worst.

Chapter 18 No Turning Back Ferda stood atop a lonely mountain peak. The only reason he had asked Ruri to bring him here was for one purpose—to observe Valdrova‘s battle. -ROAAAAAAR! A thunderous roar shook the heavens and the earth. Today, she had stopped the advance of more than a hundred monsters. In the past, he wouldn’t have even been able to breathe in a moment like this. But now, he gazed off into the distance with unparalleled calm, as if looking at some far-off mountain. ‘The…

Chapter 17 Peeking at the Shame of a God The steward asked in surprise, “What? Are you saying you’ll take her in, my lord?” “Think about it. If what you’re saying is true, this kid can’t even do simple tasks properly and will keep being like this. Then you’ll have to keep cleaning up after her, won’t you?

Chapter 28 The Purge Unit The title of “Sage” is one that cannot ever be self-proclaimed, as it is held to the strictest of standards. Among the known sages of the Serdes continent, Hellus Fobidas became a sage through an unusual path. This was because he was not from Escolaea, the city of scholars, nor was he a commoner-born magician expected to shine with innate genius. Hellus himself left behind this anecdote about how he became a sage: He said that one day, while sleeping as usual, he awoke…

Chapter 42 The First Secret Plan (6) In Britannia, gastronomy was merely a luxury for some eccentrics, not a matter of public interest. But when it came to alcohol, the story was different. In a harsh world without any decent entertainment, alcohol was one of the few pleasures and comforts in life, regardless of social status.

Chapter 23 I Want to See Her Again “What did you do last night?” The question came from Jed. The man with brown hair looked down at one spot with a face full of disbelief. His gaze landed on Ferda, who was lying on the bed. “Nothing happened.” “Nothing? Does someone who’s perfectly fine lie motionless in bed like this?” Ferda could only move his face, his body limp from the neck down. Ferda always did his morning rounds. He hadn’t missed a single day, so his sudden absence was…
