    • by Cristae Tristain Order of Knights (3) Just because one was caught didn't mean they couldn't make excuses, of course. "Uh, well… it's a bit hard to say. Right before I came here, my brother stopped by the capital, you know? At that time, I happened to see some documents from the investigation department of his company that he brought. If this gets out, my brother will probably hate it, so please just pretend you don't know anything." They were the kind of Aser family members who didn't usually keep in…
    • by Cristae The Tristain Knight Order (2) The Tristain duke’s manor was a fortress built atop a mountain cliff. The base and walls of the castle were carved directly out of solid rock. Turrets stood at each corner of the walls, and above them rose spires and watchtowers. Among them, the main keep’s tower, towering as if looking down from above, was particularly imposing. ‘Truly, a natural fortress. They say it held off a horde of monsters a thousand years ago… It’s no wonder such legends exist. To…
    • by Cristae Tristain Knight Order (1) Clayeo just blinked. He was so shocked it felt like the alcohol he’d drunk was churning all the way up his esophagus. "But the moment he broke the , a small void appeared within him. Do you believe in something like innate nature, Asser student? I don’t. I’ve seen that a person, as the sum of memory and experience, collapses when they lose their memories." "So you’re saying that purely because he lost his memories, Pierce Klagen became a petty man who changes his…
    • by Cristae The Northern Side of the Mountain Range (4) Arthur couldn’t wake up again even as Mietz grabbed him by the collar and shook him, and just collapsed completely. Maybe it was because he’d reunited with someone he could trust and lean on, and that made it easier for him to relax. With a deep sigh, Mietz picked up Chel on one hip and Arthur on the other, and hauled them up to the second-floor rooms. He put Chel in Isiel’s room, Arthur in the room he would share with Clayeo, and then returned to…
    • by Cristae The Northern Side of the Mountain Range (3) "Where in this neighborhood could you possibly make any money? Hardly anyone lives here, and even if you tried to collect something, the duke’s private land must all be mountains, right?" "You only know one thing and not the other. There aren't many people, but rare creatures are scattered all over these mountain ranges. Even so, for outsiders to sneak in and dig them up, the wild animals are fierce and the terrain is rugged." "Well, even the road…
    • by Cristae North of the Mountain Range (2) “Let’s stop and eat now. The food will get cold.” “Oh no, it’d be a waste if it gets cold.” “We’d better eat quickly.” Isiel, who calmed down the twins, took the last empty seat. She seemed to be checking if Kleio, who arrived late, was injured or unwell. Arthur, who had been devouring his share of lamb meatballs, finally stopped laughing. “Anyway, don’t worry too much about being late, Ray. With all this snow, no carriage could get to…
    • by Cristae North of the Mountain Range (1) Kleio just smiled. As long as there was no proven way to discern souls, until then, he was Gideon Asser’s second son. “It’s surprising to have my very existence as your younger brother denied just because of some memory issues. As you say, I am Father’s child and your brother.” “Younger brother, you say. Do you even consider me family by blood? You don’t remember anything about me. Yet you brazenly swept through the Capital Merchants’ Guild’s…
    • by Cristae Kleio, Asser “My little brother, have you been well?” With a broad smile, Vlad spread his arms and pulled Kleio into a quick hug, then let him go carelessly. Kleio, staggering from the rough touch, barely managed to regain his balance by grabbing the centerpiece. Last time, since it was essentially their first meeting, it was hard to read his intentions, but seeing him a second time, it became clear. ‘He’s asserting dominance right from the start. As if we’ve met enough for…
    • by Cristae Towards the reprint! (4) “No, there’s no case of doing business like this. There’s a payment deadline, so according to that, the promissory note….” “I am doing this because I can fully handle it. The remaining amount can also be paid in installments during the process through negotiation, so I hope you’ll keep that in mind.” “Why are you going this far for me?” “I’m Fran’s friend, and Mr. Bartleby, you’re Fran’s friend as well, aren’t you? I don’t want that…
    • by Cristae Towards a reprint! (3) On Arc Street, downstream on the east bank of the Tempus River, printing, bookbinding, and book finishing businesses were densely clustered together. Cleio, who got off the carriage first, stood by the door and helped Dione get down. Since the alley was narrow and the ground was rutted, Cleio had to focus all her attention on supporting Dione. The street, whose ground was worn into wheel shapes due to the ceaseless passage of carts and carriages, now even felt familiar to…
    • by Cristae Toward the Reprint! (2) Leaving the school, Kleio walked toward the tram stop. ‘As expected, emphasizing the public benefit. I knew this would work best.’ There was no lie in the story he used to persuade Maria. Since the Conqueror King was a knight who used ether and there were knight orders in the main domains of the north, south, east, and west, people’s trust in them was strong. However, since mages often avoided public activities, ordinary people rarely saw them. ‘Graduates…
    • by Cristae The Chick Class Hunter Is Making Amends! Side Story 9 Standing on the beach, On Ijo smiled as he watched the blonde woman approaching him. “Mr. On Ijo, why are you here?” It was a sea beyond the boundary that Chloe normally couldn’t cross. Since On Ijo rarely moved beyond the radius in which she could not act, Chloe found his presence here to be more than a little unusual. “I was waiting for you.” “Here?” At her prickly response, On Ijo calmly smiled and…
    • by Cristae The Chick Class Hunter Is Making Amends! Side Story 8 “Does this make me a bad person?” “…?” Sergey slowly turned his head, and On Groo’s mouth fell open. Was this that thing? Like in dramas, the bad relatives who always show up when you succeed, asking to borrow money? In both Sergey and On Groo’s minds appeared the face of a man pleading, “Please, just lend me some money,” and then, shamelessly, shouting, “Who raised you, anyway!” Gidan looked at the two, whose…
    • by Cristae 7 Whether out of fear of further exposure or defeat, President Gong stopped publishing articles, and Nayeon's scandal died down with surprising speed. According to Lee Romi, Gong Jinman was now so red-eyed from running around to every famous shaman he could find that he could hardly do his work these days. ‘Case closed!’ With a sense of pride, Groo went to meet— "Chuu unni, it's all sorted." Chuen. "Thank goodness…" A bit of color returned to Chuen’s pale…
    • by Cristae 6 "Should I—should I help you?" "…?" Question marks popped up above all three of their heads. Chuen cautiously guided Groo to sit across the table from them. "You're having trouble because of Gong Jinman, the CEO of JnL Entertainment, aren't you?" "Oh…" "Ooh…" They all listened to Chuen's words with the same expression—'As expected of such a remarkable informant!' Gong Jinman switched his phone to his other hand. "Come on, Seunghyun. You're her classmate; you…
    • by Cristae 5 "I'm not that strong yet… I have to bring Mom back…" Joorim looked as if he'd expected as much, though he couldn't hide the bitterness on his face. "S+ rank is beyond Groo. So I want to make something new—to become stronger…" "Dad understands how you feel. But there are steps to everything. You can't just get stronger in power alone. Your body and your heart have to keep up, too. Remember last time when you lost control of your skill? That nearly ended badly. Do you remember?" Groo…
    • by Cristae Chickling Class Hunter’s Filial Duty! Side Story 4 Side Story 2-2: Streamer Raid Joint BroadcastStreamer: A person who broadcasts on the internet As the boss room door swung open, the streamer team tumbled out, nearly rolling over one another in a heap on the floor. Crash, bang, thud. The team leader was the first to scramble upright, gasping as he shouted, “It’s coming after us!” Behind them, something massive was rattling, scraping metal as it advanced. A black shadow glinted…
    • by Cristae Chickling Class Hunter’s Filial Duty! Side Story 3 He replayed the footage from the moment Chloe came back to life. Chloe rose from within a mound of sand on the beach. And before that? On Ijo and On Groo were sculpting a likeness of Chloe Han out of sand. Choi Chunho kept rewinding the scene of On Ijo and On Groo piling up the sand together. It reminded him of the first time he saw footage of On Ijo. The sight had seemed nothing short of a divine miracle. On Joorim claimed it was…
    • by Cristae As Chloe took a step off the beach, her body began to crumble like sand. She muttered awkwardly, "Ah, damn it. This damned body won't—" Chloe abruptly cut herself off, biting her lip. Letting down her mental guard for just a moment, a harsh word had slipped out. Fortunately, Joorim had swiftly picked up Groo and covered her ears. Suhyeong pretended not to have heard and cleared his throat meaningfully. "Hmm, hm, hmm." "Mama… what's wrong?" Groo’s eyes trembled, worries brimming…
