    • by Cristae In any case, thanks to attending the banquet, I had learned the improved functions of Promise that came with increased narrative intervention. I learned that the terrifying crown prince was not omnipotent. I got a general sense of the opinions of the capital’s upper class. Meanwhile, Behemoth and the two pairs of twins were focusing on demolishing the course meal. Apparently satisfied with the food, Behemoth—who would get noisy if fed anything he disliked—didn’t let out a single…
    • by Cristae "What?" Isiel quickly explained the situation. After repeatedly failing to conquer the ‘Remembered World,’ Aslan lost his temper tonight and suddenly summoned Arthur, who had been sleeping peacefully, to vent his anger. He said things like, let’s see how great your martial prowess really is, or maybe if you conquer the ‘Remembered World’ and return, I’ll acknowledge a lowborn monster like you as my brother. When Arthur didn’t cave in to any insult, Aslan eventually began to…
    • by Cristae They didn’t even look alike down to their toes. ‘Damn, why does the story jump around like that!’ Suppressing his dizziness, Cleio barely managed to sit up. After bowing his head in gratitude to Isiel who had tended to him, he turned on 「Perception」 again. He examined Arthur closely with a completely new feeling. He thought he only needed to watch out for the 1st and 2nd princes, but even the protagonist, who was supposed to be righteous, had a dog-like twist. “Say that again,…
    • Episode 186 Cover
      by Cristae Episode 186 ‘Oops. The opponent wasn’t Gainando.’ Lee Han realized it belatedly and regretted it. No matter how much the princess couldn’t eat desserts, she wasn’t like Gainando to the point of eating a poisoned cake. But his hand had already moved. Lee Han knew the best thing to do in situations like this. “As expected. It was an artifact with poison detection and detoxification functions.” The silver spoon that touched the poisoned cake produced smoke, just like when the…

    • by Cristae Once Taetherton received confirmation that magic would be used, he loosened his grip. Kleio took a deep breath, having held it in case the blade pierced his throat. Even a dulled blade stung when pressed to bare skin. Taetherton carefully placed the onyx from Phyton, obtained in the earlier fight, onto Melchior’s hand. ‘He sure treats his lord and others with a clear difference in temperature,’ Kleio thought, as he opened his circle. His body and mind sparked with glassy pain. A new…
    • by Cristae Cleio, using to watch the arena and the judges’ table, let out a suppressed moan. ‘To pit Pierce against Arthur—this is bad. Isn’t this going to expose everything?’ Of course, Arthur had stopped hiding his strength to some extent, and with not only his enemies but also potential supporters among the spectators, it was good to show some of his abilities. However, with Aslan’s intentions unknown, letting Arthur face Pierce was extremely risky. ‘Surely they’re not planning to harm…
    • 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 Final Exams (2) In the prime seats in front of the lecture hall next to the stands sat Zebedi, Professor Maria, and an external official—Capital Defense Force Magic Corps Commander Thaddeus Yetzkel—as the magic division examiners. An assistant stood beside them, holding a trumpet-shaped magical device enchanted with magic to conduct the exam. The device functioned like a loudspeaker. “Student Cleio Asher, please briefly explain the magic you will demonstrate.” “It’s a single…
    • Episode 185 Cover
      by Cristae Heir to the Imperial Throne. The Death Knight’s summons were not over. Gainando, who had been dragged outside, tilted his head and asked, “Me?” You are the runner-up of Blue Dragon Tower. Come with me. Of course, it was referring to the princess. Gainando grumbled and turned his head. What a filthy magic school, discriminating by grades! “I trust you’re not dragging us to the punishment room just for doing well on the exam.” Of course not. The Death Knight answered…

    • by Cristae After hardship comes settlement (3) When she saw the two men blinking cluelessly, Dione lost interest in teasing them. “Sigh, what am I supposed to say with these blockheads. By the way, young master, if you rest again, are your attendance days still okay? What about the midterm exams?” “It's the same for me, and for Ray as well—the dean officially approved our medical leave, so who’s going to question our attendance days? For the subjects we missed exams in due to injury, they treated…
    • by Cristae The Asser Family’s Dinner (2) The dinner lasted for three full hours. It was the first formal dinner after reopening the capital mansion, and with Gideon visiting as well, the splendor of the table that day was beyond words. Concentrating on her plate with the mindset that she should eat well before all the business began, Clayeo couldn’t help but harbor reasonable doubts. ‘Does Mrs. Canton use magic, too? How did she prepare all this in just half a day without magic?’ Four servants…
    • by Cristae Article and Attribution (2) Kleio did not know what triggered Melchior to experience the flood of madness. That was not mentioned in the previous manuscript either. The drop of blood forming at the sharp chin of the crown prince and falling to the floor sounded like a kind of early century. The of the beast was stopped as if burned by Melchior's skill. Neither Arthur nor Taetherton dared to intervene between the clash of that tremendous ether. The outlines of the two trembling and howling…

      by Cristae Episode 173 “Chase after them!” “What?!” “We can’t lose to Wardanaz! Are you planning to lose even in horseback riding?!” “But…” One of the students hesitated. If they rushed out like that, there would be no way to handle the aftermath. A horse is a living creature. If they ran like that, it would get tired quickly… “Ugh! I’m going!” “Me too!” But in the end, the students, one after another, began to pick up their whips and drive their…

    • by Cristae The Stage of Enactment (2) “There’s an intruder! They’re targeting the stage!” Fran, appearing from the opposite side of Nebo, shouted urgently. As if responding to his voice, Gehaim Zinger, who had been bowing his head in the middle of the stage, looked up. For a moment, it felt as if time had stopped. It was a horribly inappropriate moment of “Fascination.” Not only Cleio, who couldn’t activate “Separation,” but even the strong-willed Arthur and Fran stopped moving as…
    • by Cristae Amphitheater (3) Cleio somehow managed not to doze off. It was mostly thanks to Arthur. The conflict between his sibling Antigone, who tried to bury the dead Polynices, and King Creon, who forbade the traitor’s funeral by royal edict, seemed strange to Arthur as well. “Hey, what the heck is this? The sister just wants to bury her dead brother, so why is the king so mad? And what’s with how he acts toward his son’s fiancée?” “That order represents the positive law, the law of…
    • Episode 206 Cover
      by Cristae “The King of Frost Giants is an honorable being who enjoys the rightful challenge of a worthy challenger.” Professor Voladi kindly explained when Lee Han looked curious. It was indeed the erudition befitting a professor. For a moment, Lee Han suspected that Professor Voladi had known in advance who was inside the twisted dimensional corridor. ‘It kind of feels that way.’ “I’ve… heard of him as well…” Direte said in a trembling voice. Among the beings who dwell in…

    • by Cristae The Queen’s Garden (5) Arthur was the first to draw his sword. “All right then, Ishiel and I will cover you and get you inside, Ray? Chel will stand guard outside.” “That’s right. I’ll open the circle after getting as close to the ‘Master Clock’ as possible. I’ll burn everything within the circle, so just take care of the ones outside it. Got it?” Chel, curious about Cleio’s unusually proactive attitude, quickly figured out the reason. “You always hold back, but now…
    • 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…
    • Episode 207 Cover
      by Cristae Episode 207 Excellent. Even though the honorable crown had been scratched, the voice of the Frost Giant King was gentle. It was because he was satisfied with what the challenger had shown. He had wondered how the crown’s defense would be pierced, but to think he would use evaporation, an advanced application property of the water element. Evaporation was such a tricky property that even mages who specialized in the water element often could not understand it. Even if one had sufficient…

    • Episode 202 Cover
      by Cristae Episode 202 It was rare even at the magic school for a student to receive such evaluations from their first year. The magic school was a freer place than one might think. Even if a student left during the school year to succeed their family, or chose to work in another field without using the magic they had learned, no one said anything. Because of that, an evaluation like ‘a core talent who will take responsibility for the magic school’ was truly extraordinary. A talent who would remain…
