      by Cristae — After some deliberation, Professor Voladi spoke. “There are already too many advanced attributes you’re learning…” “Ah. I almost forgot. I heard you contracted with a star as well? Heard it from Professor Bendozol.” “……” Professor Voladi turned and stared at Lee Han intently. That gaze felt like one reprimanding a student who had caused trouble while he was away. ‘This really is unfair.’ Even if Lee Han had contracted with a star of his own will, he shouldn’t…

      by Cristae — “Hm. That’s really odd.” Barglios of House Elbali, the third-year student who had been asking through all the likely questions in the book, tilted his head in confusion. Normally, you’d expect at least one yes by now, but only denials kept coming. ‘Thank goodness.’ Even if Lee Han hadn’t gotten an answer, he felt a bit relieved. Thankfully, the wood spirit wasn’t angry with him. …Of course, there were still plenty of reasons left to check, but for now, just knowing the…

      by Cristae — “Isn’t the floor much too slippery? Should I help clean up?” Seeing the seniors constantly slipping, Lee Han asked with concern. Professor Verdus looked at the floor and fumed. “Why is that floor so slippery, always getting in the way!” “Didn’t you just toss things aside after your experiment, Professor?” At Lee Han’s skeptical remark, Professor Verdus protested as if it was nonsense. “The students clean it up!” “……” Since Professor Verdus never…
    • by Cristae — 284 Retaliation (4) Alex Hope gently stroked the little girl’s hair. What was her original name again? Sohee? Sophia? Remembering people’s names was still a difficult task. Was it really necessary to memorize them all? Sandra would probably get annoyed if she heard him say that. “How long do you expect me to clean up after you?” she’d say. Even so, compared to his childhood, his understanding of humans had improved greatly. He knew he had to make an effort, since he’d decided to…
    • by Cristae — Bian Xu never liked big cities. For convenience in handling affairs, Si Zhiyan had claimed the top-floor duplex apartment in the city’s tallest building as his own. The rooftop was a small garden with a pool, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows stretched the stunningly lit neon nightscape of the metropolis. Si Zhiyan moved his office here, and at night, as he watched the pinpricks of light spread and illuminate the city, he was filled with an unmatched sense of accomplishment. While Si…
    • by Cristae — Chapter 233: Damned Curiosity The wretched system was always up to no good. Yan Jiyun stopped fretting about the collar around his neck. If he ran into Jiuyé in person, he'd simply choose a high-collared shirt or wrap the collar with a piece of cloth to hide it from view. From the system’s prompt, he drew one conclusion: Jiuyé was, apparently, an NPC. His suspicion that Jiuyé was actually Qi Feng dropped by five percent. What had been a ninety percent certainty was now eighty-five. The…
    • Episode 1180 Cover
      by Cristae — Professor Garcia wondered where to even begin to correct him. It wasn’t uncommon for Einrogard professors to go missing or abscond (Professor Bendozol was one such example), but even then, students didn’t post wanted notices throughout the Empire. If they did, Einrogard’s notoriety would have risen even higher. ‘Then again, would any student even look for a missing professor in the first place…?’ Usually, students would be sad if they liked the professor, but wouldn’t bother to…
    • by Cristae — 433 Aptitude (1) “A question about Mont Saint-Michel, you say?” Jean Robinson had arrived at the Training High. Even this taciturn man had changed a great deal since our first meeting. He was a better father than I’d expected, and an impressive Hunter as well. This is why you can’t trust first impressions. Look at Noah Michel… she turned out the same way. Not that I’m saying Jean Robinson is perfect. But for someone his age, it’s only natural to have a few personal issues. I…
    • Episode 1167 Cover
      by Cristae — Just in case, Lee Han scanned for magical energies around him but detected nothing. If someone, like Saratan, was residing in the tablet or even traces of magic remained, he should have clearly felt a ripple of magical power…? “Senior.” Lee Han called Catten. Though confident in his own senses, Lee Han was never overconfident. If it was someone at Catten’s level, he might have noticed something Lee Han had missed. “Did you sense anything strange?” “You mean my humble…
    • Episode 1012 Cover
      by Cristae — Episode 1012 “If you mean other friends, who are you talking about?” “Yes?” Lee Han was flustered because he hadn’t expected to be asked to name specific friends. As expected, the insight of an archmage was sharper than most. “…Senior Direte, and Lee Han of the Wardanaz family…” Flustered, Lee Han made a choice he would never normally make. He added his own name to the list of friends. The Death Knight walking beside him felt sorry for him…
    • Episode 975 Cover
      by Cristae — In truth, this semester Direte’s luck with lectures had been unusually poor. Just recently, because Joulin had run away from home, the other professors had come in to attend his class. At the time, Direte had thought, ‘There can’t be a tougher lecture than this.’ But today, Direte fully realized why a wizard must never make such assumptions. There could, in fact, be even more difficult lectures! "I’m really sorry, senior." Lee Han apologized with a look full of guilt. In…
    • by Cristae — 500 Pursuit (4) A will? At that word, a base curiosity welled up inside me before I even realized it. Gamble quickly caught himself, snapping back to his senses. This was all Alex’s fault, that kid who’d watched endless dramas in the lab—those palace romances about the missing king’s will in some imaginary kingdom, tangled with assassination, adultery, and power…. But this was something that had happened in real life. Gamble had no desire to sink that low. Even if it was about the…
    • by Cristae — 355 Molting (2) “Ugh, wow...” As soon as I set her down, Shin Minseo collapsed onto the floor. “I feel like I’m going to throw up...” She was a bit unsteady, unlike Gamble, who was standing upright on her own two feet. Well, Gamble was an Awakened, after all. “I had to run myself or it would’ve taken too long. My apologies.” “This school is unnecessarily huge...” Her face was still pale, but as soon as she caught her breath, Shin Minseo sprang to her…
    • by Cristae — 326 Declaration of Revenge (2) Classes at the co-ed school started at 9 a.m. The current time: 8:13 a.m. It took just over forty minutes to walk from home to school, and we were about halfway there. Even if Kang Taewoo had just spent a short vacation in Hawaii with his little sister, and even if he now had a home in Korea, I wasn’t cold-hearted enough to send an eighteen-year-old straight to the dormitory. I told him he could commute from home just for this week. After all, he lived across…
    • by Cristae — 275 Coin (2) What Woo Irok planned to do with money that couldn’t be traced didn’t really matter. Well, it did matter, but it wasn’t a priority. I was certain that if anyone tried to take his money, he wouldn’t just sit back and let it happen. At worst… “Irok is just too cute.” “…Why are you telling me that?” “Did you know he asked me what kind of birthday present girls would like? I think he’s planning to give one to a girlfriend.” “Again, why are you…

      by Cristae — The thoroughly cowed Duke Ikaldoren hurriedly grabbed a quill and began signing, “I will sponsor Yukveltire’s artificial dimension research.” None of the confidence of the master manipulator of imperial backrooms remained. He was like a bankrupt tycoon at the end of his days, hands shaking as he wrote his will. Lee Han and Yukveltire watched with satisfaction. Fortunately, Direte, still rational, grabbed both their shoulders and whispered. “Hey. Hang on.” “?” “??” The…
    • by Cristae — 549 (Hunter Academy Side Story 16) The Graduates_3 “For now, that’s as far as I’ve got. Any questions?” Lee Seung-yeon gulped down water, her throat dry. She tried to look nonchalant, but it was obvious she was nervous. Normally, her friends would have teased her or cracked jokes at her expense, but today, none of them felt like doing that. After seeing how much she’d prepared, it wouldn’t be right to make fun of her—not if they were really friends. “So… this is your ultimate…
    • by Cristae — 398 The Path of Learning (3) “I’m telling you, I wasn’t like that.” “The more someone says that, the more you have to be suspicious about their past.” “There’s nothing wrong with my past.” “Really?” “Really.” “Truly?” “…I’m serious.” “Then why won’t my eyes believe you?” My father grinned slyly. “How can you live without trust?” “It’s because I trust you too much that I’m like this!” Hong Seok-yeong tapped his fist…
    • Episode 828 Cover
      by Cristae — At those words, Yukveltire was uncharacteristically flustered and grabbed Lee Han’s wrist. “What are you doing?” “I’m just going to do something else.” “Why? Are you trying to run away?” Desperate, Yukveltire tried to provoke Lee Han’s pride. She didn’t admit it, but she really was quite interested in this black magnetite staff. ‘…I want to see it completed.’ But Yukveltire still didn’t quite get her junior. He didn’t have any pride to…
    • by Cristae — Side Story 1. A clear blue sky. Beneath the stark, Gothic towers so characteristic of the North, a throng of people gathered in swarming crowds. It was because today was an exceptionally special day. “And now, for the final act of the succession ceremony.” Baron Ricken, head of the North's oldest family and eternally loyal to the House of Alton, took the floor. “Duke Theodore Alton will now present the banner to the new lord of the North.” Obeying the baron's lead, Theodore…
