    • by Cristae Episode 221 Khalid stared impassively at the blocked cave exit. “They’re taking too long.” Leon muttered at his side. They had questioned the villagers nearby and managed to find this alternate exit from the cliffside cave. The problem was that this exit, too, was blocked by rocks—perhaps due to the earlier explosion. They were running out of options. “Hurry up!” At Leon’s shout, the Zevert knights rushed to carry away rocks and stones. Kal gripped the reins…
    • by Cristae A flash of teleportation light illuminated the plaza in front of the gates of Protsenhau. As soon as the teleportation ended, Yuseong immediately jumped up onto the city wall. Several NPC soldiers were peering outside from atop the wall. Far off in the distance, dark shapes could be seen. ‘They’re here.’ The army of demons and monsters. With several cities already raided, it was no surprise. However, their numbers were extraordinary. It seemed like they could overrun Protsenhau in…

      by Cristae Radical? What do you mean? The young prince asked with genuine confusion. What part of the advice he’d just given could possibly be considered radical? “Well… mansions are expensive, and ones in the capital even more so. Asking someone to just hand it over is a bit much.” Ah. From the prince’s response, Lee Han thought maybe he’d finally understood. Truly, unlike the skull headmaster, this young prince listened and was understanding of his disciple’s words… That’s…

      by Cristae As the basilisk thrashed about, refusing to let go, Direte glanced over and said, “How about letting it stay with you a little longer?” “Excuse me?” “Well, you know, animals like to be with their mothers when they’re little, right?” “Senior, I’m not a basilisk.” Lee Han gave him an exasperated look, and Direte blushed. He’d spoken hastily and said something that made no sense. “I just meant as a metaphor!” “But aren’t basilisks supposed to be violent…
    • by Cristae 205 She couldn't put her finger on who, but among the crowd, there was an unpleasant gaze fixed on her. Romi sharpened her eyes without thinking, then caught herself—she was in front of the cameras—and smoothed her expression. ‘…Am I still on edge from that incident?’ Romi recalled the day her former agency’s president paid her a visit. During her idol trainee days, that man had ruined her self-esteem, then denied her a debut. Now he’d resurfaced, bragging about how well his…
    • by Cristae 70 Jingle, jingle! “Correct!” The cheerful sound of the bell filled the cave, and Sortie grinned, exclaiming, “I got it right!” “But do Abelita herbs really have pointy leaves? I can never tell…” I puffed up my chest with pride. “There’s a trick to recognizing them. If you visit the ducal estate later, I’ll show you myself.” “Wow!” “Rubian, you really know so much.” Olivia admired me with pure wonder. The children sat in a circle by the…

      by Cristae ‘Of all the many exploits of Stedal Nago, why that unusual one?’ Of course, Lee Han had added that one out of greed. Who in the Empire wouldn’t have wanted to increase their fortune during the Boneskin Flower speculation boom? But he never expected so many people to latch onto that detail. Wasn’t being captured by pirates or discovering a treasure map more interesting? "What? That Nago family?! I heard that too. He took over eight ruined families during the Boneskin Flower…

      by Cristae Originally, the great nobles of the Empire did not borrow money.To be more precise, they did not borrow money “personally.”It was something deemed unseemly for the dignity of an honorable great noble.Of course, great nobles also needed money from time to time.In those cases, merchants who were either friendly with them or wished to gain favor would come to them of their own accord.A polite greeting, some stories about the world, compliments for the mansion and family, and then a phrase like, “As your…

    • by Cristae 169. ‘What in the world is this feeling…?’ It wasn’t simply the confusion of having a would-be stepfather who was the same age as her lover. She had already vented most of that awkwardness when she pulled at that guy’s hair. What was age, after all? If anything, her mother deserved praise for her boldness. Yet Seraphie still found herself ill at ease. She wanted to graciously accept her mother’s romance, but this vague unease would not disappear. “Sir Felikia, your…
    • by Cristae 93 As soon as I entered the maze garden’s entrance, the fresh scent of greenery filled the air. “Wow, it’s huge. And so wide.” The walls, made suitably low for children, didn’t feel intimidating. I strolled leisurely at first, then gradually picked up my pace. Since I was here, I might as well escape quickly and impress my family! Just then, the bushes beside the path rustled, and a familiar squirrel popped out. “Oh! Squirrel! Did you come to help me?” The sight of…
    • by Cristae "Ugh!" He almost let out a groan from the intense pain, but Yuseong suppressed it. If he didn’t, he might accidentally spit out the potion he was holding in his mouth. He slowly forced the potion down his throat. Even swallowing was torture, since there wasn’t a single part of his body that wasn’t injured. Waves of pain shot up his esophagus as the potion went down. Fortunately, the potion started to work almost immediately, dulling the pain slightly. But he was only able to hold a small…
    • by Cristae Episode 118 ‘Mister Maddix?’ “I’m heading home for the day!” She darted out the shop’s back door with a whoosh. At the same moment—bang! The door flew open. “Asha!” The blacksmith, his long green hair tied back anyhow, flexed his impressive, sinewy muscles as always. “Mister Maddix!” It had been a while since I’d seen him. I hurried over to greet him. His bushy eyebrows danced. “Miss Ruby? Long time no see.” “What brings you here……
    • by Cristae Episode 195 “My biological father?!” Bang! Balok didn't hold back. “Please calm down.” “Is this something to calm down about?!” Leviathan clicked his tongue lightly as he stared at the wall, now cracked open. “Getting worked up won’t solve anything.” For the first time in a long while, the three elders of the ducal house were gathered in the large parlor. A small bundle lay on the table. Partially unwrapped, it revealed an old portrait, an equally worn baby…

      by Cristae ‘Ah.’ Seeing the little tail trembling with sadness from his sleeve, Lee Han finally realized there was a basilisk inside. It had always coiled around his arm like a bracelet so naturally that he’d forgotten. ‘My mistake. I should’ve been more careful with my words.’ A magician is supposed to be careful with words even in front of monsters. Just like in old imperial fairy tales, where the wizard who commanded the Yellow Demon and Black Demon muttered, “The Yellow Demon works…

      by Cristae You and your arrogance have made students miss a precious learning opportunity… The Skull Principal’s rambling was cut off as the Blue Dragon Tower students cried out. “Wardanas!!” “You’re alive! We thought you’d been kidnapped!” “Kidnapped?” Angrago, who was following behind, asked back in confusion. Who would dare kidnap Wardanas? “Hands up! Don’t move—one step and we’ll curse you!” Blue Dragon Tower students found Angrago and Duke Ma and immediately…

      by Cristae "Is there such a prince?" While Lee Han was dumbfounded, Professor Garcia looked puzzled beside him. The skilled enchanters of Petrogarde knew how to temporarily breathe life into their works using primitive magic. That was something Professor Garcia was aware of. But if a painting had been in the artist senior’s residence, the story was different. If it was a painting that the senior himself had hung up? "Prince Amritbirma?" "Who’s that?" Lee Han tilted his head at Professor…

      by Cristae Realizing the distrust from her junior, Hormashi sighed. “You don’t trust me because I’m from Blue Dragon Tower!” “It’s not because you’re from Blue Dragon Tower, it’s because I’ve experienced this myself—” “No helping it, then. I’ll just have to go in first and bring it out.” “Stop!” Professor Bendozol stopped Hormashi in a harsh tone. “You want to make us walk this far, out in the desert, in this weather?” “That’s not a big deal for…
    • by Cristae Episode 12 “Wow, look—even Father’s here!” Void lifted the card with the golden border, cradling it as if it were priceless. The look on Mister’s face as he watched was truly something to see… “If you wanted it so much, why didn’t you just buy it yourself?” At my offhand question, Void turned his head away. “This is only sold in the capital for a limited period. You can’t get it in the North.” “You could’ve written to the Duke and asked him to get it for…

      by Cristae And anyway, the Watchman Club members were all so suspicious that even if you impersonated someone, there wasn’t much to gain. Lee Han himself would instantly block any message like ‘Hey, it’s Baquantalana, can you lend me a hundred coins?’ “Impersonating is fine; just tell me what artifacts they’re using.” Even if it wasn’t useful right now, it could be a clue later on to track down other members. Lee Han made sure to jot down every bit of information the young prince…
