Episode 77 “Blan…kets! Outerwear! Covers!” He dashed off somewhere at full speed, then returned, his arms full of things like his furry outerwear, blankets, and anything remotely like a throw, all bundled up. Yet, in the end, he was so flustered he couldn’t bring himself to actually drape anything over me, only standing there shivering, his hands trembling uncontrollably. “I-Isn’t the coat too heavy? What if my little sister just… vanishes?” What’s with him. “I’m not…

Episode 101Ch.10 The eventful banquet had finally ended. The matter of the tracking mage, which had worried me, was settled for now, and once I removed the bracelet, I quickly regained my energy and ate to my heart’s content. After having a cake-eating contest with Liam and Void, I finally left the party hall. Naturally, I was the victor. As I was leaving the banquet, my elder brothers were each caught by acquaintances from their respective academies. Void was surrounded by a group of…

Episode 97 “Thank you for all your hard work, everyone.” The grand hall sparkled brilliantly. The awards ceremony began with an address from His Majesty the Emperor. Of course… we first had to sit through a very lengthy closing statement. The children who participated in the competition had gathered in small clusters in front of the stage. All the adults, resplendently dressed, looked on from behind with proud smiles. I stood in the very front row, a little tense. On either side of…

Episode 29Making a Barrier with Mister to Defend This Place! "I want to take swordsmanship lessons!" Mister’s eyes widened in surprise as though he hadn't expected to hear that. "What?" "I'm going to learn the sword! I’m going to get really, really strong! Isn’t that what it means to be a man of the north?" Mister scrunched up his face with a reluctant expression. "Well… yes, I suppose?" A good idea had come to me, so I was too preoccupied to notice his expression. 'If I…

104The boy scratched his eyebrow, then bowed politely. “Sorry, Rubian.” “Hm?” “For misunderstanding you. Didn’t that cause you trouble yesterday?” Ah. About yesterday. I shook my head quietly. Strictly speaking, it wasn’t Licht’s fault. “It’s fine. Is that why you wanted to keep talking with me?” “Mm. I had too many thoughts on my own. If I caused you any distress… I’m truly sorry.” Everyone knew—even the stones in the road—that the Zeverts hated…

64Thick foliage and trees made it seem as though the place had been hidden away by fairies themselves. There, I laughed as I kicked my legs in the water. “Hehehehehe.” Pale steam rippled as the water splashed. “That laugh is weird.” From behind a tree, Khalid grumbled in annoyance. “Do I really have to stand watch for you?” “Please do.” After checking the depth, I slipped into the water, still wrapped in a thin cloth just in case. “Wow… So this is what it means…

Episode 35 “I understand. You mentioned he’s the son of a healer, correct? Since I have some acquaintances remaining there, I’ll try sending a letter.” Borbel packed his medical bag. As he was about to leave, he suddenly turned back as if something had just come to mind. “Come to think of it, Lord Rubian is said to have made medicine using herbs, yes?” “That’s right. Apparently, he learned by watching over the shoulder.” It was a miraculous remedy that not only won over the…

Episode 91 “When did you even have time to prepare for that?” I blurted out the question in Khalid’s stead, startled. Father, as if he’d anticipated it, replied nonchalantly. “With money and coerc—no, with money and negotiation skills, anything is possible.” “Ah… I see…” Truly, you are remarkable. I was about to ask if it wasn’t all a bit much, when suddenly the knights, having just arrived, shouted from behind. “Go, Khal! If you don’t place in the top…

Episode 124 “Duke, you’ve arrived. I’ll announce you to His Majesty at once.” The attendant hurried over and bowed to Leviathan. Leviathan stood before the massive audience chamber doors, quietly waiting for permission to enter. It wasn’t long before the attendant reappeared. “Thank you for waiting! His Majesty asks that you come in… now…” The attendant trailed off, glancing warily at the Duke. “Um, Your Excellency… Did our door somehow offend you?” It was…

Episode 30 Ahem, ahem! Senior Oberon, repeatedly clearing his throat for no reason, clapped his hands once with a stern expression. "All right! That’s it for today’s training!" He was a good lieutenant, always covering for his superior's shortcomings. I watched Oberon’s receding figure, then headed for the shade of a tree at the edge of the training grounds. "Mister. Why are you sleeping out here?" Snore, snore. The radiant, handsome man lay sleeping. "Wake up!" When I shook…

134“Very well. Let’s go into my office! And about our special curriculum going forward…” “Pardon? No, I just wanted to look at the books in the archive.” “Sorry to break it to you just when destiny seems to be calling, but the archive is off-limits for a while. Luckily, I’ve made a few copies of some texts, so we can start with those…” “……” “Miss Rubian?” Rubian’s lips moved as if to speak. “Huh, this wasn’t what I meant to do…” “What was…

Episode 62 “Our youngest really has quite the nerve.” Dad rested his chin on his hand and placed it on my head. I gazed at the cake boxes stacked neatly in the dining room. One of every kind, a total of eight. “They were just so delicious.” “Right. Who would have thought you’d go so far as to reserve and buy the entire tea salon menu for a whole month.” I said I’d be staying here all month… I bought them thinking of everyone. ‘Maybe buying a whole month’s…

Episode 11 “Uh……” Eyes growing slightly wider at the sight of me. Smooth lips twitching ever so slightly. Then, a quiet murmur to the attendant at their side. “You know.” “Yes, young master?” “…It feels kind of weird because of that kid over there.” He covered his mouth with his hand, but I still heard everything. ‘It must bother him to have someone new around!’ If I want to fit in here, I’ll have to get along with him, too! I swallowed nervously,…

61 Titi changed the subject. “Oh, I heard about that. They say it’s only girls being targeted.” “Huh? I heard it’s noble children, boys and girls alike.” “Really? I’d heard status doesn’t matter.” Hmm? Titi and Liv tilted their heads at each other, faces close. “With something this unsavory, I guess the rumors are bound to take many forms.” When I added this, Licht, who had been listening quietly, let out a heavy sigh and joined in. “Whatever it is, the…

“Ah!” “For goodness’ sake, why do you keep barging in while the child is eating…!” Mister shot to his feet, his expression utterly exasperated. Wait a second—how could that door be smashed through like a sheet of paper? It was a tremendously thick, heavy door! “Where is the new child!” A voice like a beast’s roar. ‘An angry lion!’ Striding over the wreckage of the shattered door was an elderly man with wild white hair and piercing, icy blue eyes. His huge…

Episode 13 "Sir?" "No, it's nothing." He scratched the back of his head with a rough hand. "Surely not." He's just a child born and raised in a remote village. He simply hasn't had much exposure to imperial clocks. "So I’m the one still wandering the battlefield." A wry, self-deprecating smile flashed across his relaxed features. It was so brief, no one would have noticed. I was flustered. "W-what is it?" The burly maids had appeared holding blades all of a sudden. How…

Episode 133 Ah, of course, my father is wealthy too. But isn’t it always better to have more connections among the rich? Smiling again, I began stacking my books neatly. “But… it doesn’t look like this is the first time they’ve bothered you. Why don’t you talk to the professor about it?” I spoke sincerely, but Zerdin shook his head gently. “If… if a noble retaliates because of that… I-I’ll be fine. I can put up with it a little longer.” “Oh dear.” He must…

Episode 23What did you say? “I think you’re getting your words mixed up.” “Ugh.” He seemed quite flustered. It was strange and fascinating to see an adult so obviously at a loss just because he thought I was angry. Looking up at that unexpectedly unimposing giant, I spoke again, carefully enunciating each word. “I’m not angry. I was surprised yesterday, but I wasn’t upset. I’m the one who should apologize for shouting so rudely.” I bowed deeply, all the way from the…

Chapter 56 Rubian seemed to have regained a bit of confidence. “Tada. There are so many snacks here. Who do you think asked for all this to be prepared? Whose house do you think this is?” “…The, the Duke Zevert’s house.” Sortie jutted out her lower lip and answered in a small voice. Rubian grinned and handed over a handkerchief. “Oh dear. Thank you for comforting our Titi. As expected, a child of House Zevert is something special.” The count, who had been sweating…

Chapter 131 “…Looks like something’s in there. I’ll go check it out first.” The squirrel perched on top of Khalid’s head leapt down with a flick and scampered away. It, too, darted quickly through the labyrinthine shelves. I held my lamp up and peered at a book wedged right beside me. “…This is…” At that moment, the lower part of the previously intact spine began to peel away. Rustle. Fragile, old fragments of paper scattered. Surely it wasn’t my gaze that made…
