Chapter 163 “So. What sneaky plans were you up to this time?” I blinked my eyes. Violet gaze was fixed on the parchment in my hand. “Ah…!” Right, Dad was here! ‘If Dad helps, I won’t have to be separated from Khalid!’ These days, Dad was happiest when I clung to him, asking for help! I quickly grabbed his hem and opened my mouth. “Dad, I, I nee—” See? That smooth smile curling upward in satisfaction. “Give me…

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…

146 “Ouch.” “What are you doing all of a sudden?” Khalid scowled and grabbed my wrist. Limp and thin strands of black hair dangled in my hand. “Just watch.” Gripping the hair, I fueled it with magic. The air around us trembled for a moment. Would it work? “Here goes.” A blue magic circle floated up, and I felt my internal mana and the surrounding magic flow into the intricate formula. The limp strands of hair stood on end. And then… ‘The inscription on…

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…

Episode 139 The water of Lake Reim was, in truth, nothing more than ordinary lake water. Yet… ‘Given that it's an inexplicable and mysterious phenomenon, it’s not so odd for it to be solved in a mysterious way.’ Moreover, by instilling a suitable amount of fear, I was able to keep Yuliope quiet. “Miss Ru-Rubian! You, you didn’t hear anything just now, right?” “What did you say?” “If you didn’t hear, then that’s fine! I, I, I’ve something to do for a…

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…

120Cal pressed his lips tightly together in silence. At that moment, Allen, who had been feeling along the shackle, narrowed one eye. “Huh? The inside here’s kind of rough. Cal, shine some light here, will you? Maybe there’s some precious gem embedded inside. Ha, so that’s why you wanted to come here, huh?” “Move.” Cal quickly snatched the shackle and directed the light inside. A shackle meant for wrists and ankles. While bound, there was no way anyone could have seen the…

55 I chose the room at the very end of the second floor. It was a bit smaller than my room at the manor, but so cozy that I liked it very much. Most important of all, the bed was the softest! “Hot springs.” Lying on that bed, I gazed up at the ceiling and imagined. “Hot springs!” That thing I saw on television in my previous life! Everyone’s expressions as they soaked in it were the same—utterly melted, pure bliss. It had left quite an impression on me. “I want to…

"Of course that’s good, isn’t it?" It was almost astonishing that he’d hesitated to say that at all. 'Didn't I say first that I wanted to be the youngest?' Had he really forgotten? Or did he truly think that living in the north would disappoint me so much I’d try to run away? 'I know well enough what kind of people Rosetta and Liam are in the original story.' Of course, I couldn’t be certain they’d welcome me… 'It’s fine. I can make a good impression.' I had no reason…

Episode 165‘What does that mean?’ The chill in the air brushed against his cheek. Khalid, leaning against the window of the carriage, watched the fleeting scenery pass by, taking it in with quiet indifference. ‘The ancient royal palace…’ Traces of a far-distant past, now dismissed as myth or legend, were buried like treasure all across the continent. There were more yet to be discovered than had been found. The Delcan Ruins were one such case. ‘If I’m going to look for…

28화Ch.4 ‘Humming…?’ Morris Lilton, former vice-captain of the Zevert Knights and now the butler of the Northern Annex, frowned at several days of the old lord’s odd behavior. “Heh heh hmm.” Because Balok Zevert—the very same who could make even crows drop from the sky by sheer force of spirit—was humming a tune since morning. Good heavens, he’s even wiggling his hips. ‘Strangely, his leg seems to have gotten better.’ Morris quietly set down the tea on the…
