Part 2 – Episode 31 Rue turned into a stone. He turned into a stone after blocking Rein’s flames. “Rue.” There was no answer no matter how many times I called out to him. ‘Is he really that upset? Or is he in such a bad state that he can’t even speak…?’ Both were reasonable…
Part 2 – Episode 30 For a moment, it felt like my breath was caught in my throat. 20 years? 20 years, you say? “Impossible! You’ve been freed from the balance, haven’t you? So why……” “It’s because I’m not affected by the balance that it’s possible. If I turned back time this much before, I’d…
Part 2 – Episode 29 Whoosh- The energy compressed into a spherical shape sliced through the air and rapidly ascended into the sky. “What the…” The terrorists swallowed their dry saliva and raised their heads to the sky, following the trail of the energy. I once again concealed my presence, and flew towards the three…
Click, click— The sound of Derivis’s shoes echoed on the cold stone floor. His footsteps grew closer to Nine, who was sitting helplessly, each step feeling like fear and despair themselves were approaching her. “Do you remember what I said last time?” “Don’t you dare come close!” “I warned you—if…
“I’ll do it! I’ll do anything if it means I can live and if there’s a chance!” Rondun smiled with satisfaction at the sight of Nine’s desperation as she chased after her greed. ‘In that case, I’ll use the Duchess for the final experiment. Once I secure the Prince and Empress, the…
“Derivis. There are no traps.” Derivis reached for the safe. Despite its formidable lock and thick iron doors boasting impenetrable security, he effortlessly broke it open, forcing it ajar. Inside, he found Nine’s secret ledger, brooches from the families aligned with her, and a wealth of letters and other incriminating evidence. Derivis…
Part 2 – Episode 28 The silence was long. Then, the butler assassin suddenly rose up with a bewildered expression. Wait, wasn’t he getting ready to punch me in the face? Just before the ticklish, feeble attack reached my cheek. I lightly blocked his fist with my hand and asked. “What are you doing?” “…Are…
Part 2 – Episode 27 Oh, now that I think about it, I almost forgot about Deschamps. As I turned around to look, I could see Deschamps standing there, staring at me in a daze. Even when I approached her and waved my hand, there was no sign of her regaining her senses. Was she…
Rosalie hesitated, carefully choosing her words. Erudit realized that his confession had put Rosalie in a difficult spot, and he smiled bitterly at the thought. “I’m sorry if this puts any burden on you. I just… I thought I’d regret it if I didn’t say something. After this, I’ll continue to serve…
Derivis, who had been waiting for their conversation to end, finally spoke up. “So, did Tehard know about Rondun?” “Yes. He’s a magician who was expelled from the Mage Tower. It seems that even the Tower itself shuns him because of the inhumane experiments he conducted.” “Then I guess they’re birds…
“Is that why he was expelled from the Mage Tower?” “Yes, because everyone involved in his experiment died horribly.” A cold silence filled the room. Tehard pressed his fingers to his forehead in frustration, while the tense Rosalie clasped her hands on her lap. Erudit, who had been deducing the situation…
The blue flower buds growing in the glass garden blossomed with a mysterious glow in the moonlight. “I discovered it by chance recently.” Rosalie gazed in awe at the flowers emitting their enchanting glow. The light was so bright that she could now clearly see Derivis’s face, which had been obscured in…
Rosalie was considering whether she should throw the fan in her hand out the window and keep playing dumb until the end. As she clutched the fan and gazed outside, Nine fidgeted, thinking ‘just in case.’ This was an act of insubordination like no other. “…This is an offense against the imperial…
“…What do you mean?” Nine asked with a frown, and Rondun grinned and held out both index fingers. “We’re going to swap the souls of the prince and the empress. That way, the empress can become the emperor—in the prince’s body.” ‘And I’ll get to try out a new experiment! This…
Having been tricked by Nine into believing that the bitter tea was good for adults, Radinis waited for the former empress to drink first. Derivis, arriving too late, clutched his mother’s cold, lifeless body and wept. Blaming himself for not recognizing the situation sooner, he felt a deep, unshakable resentment towards the young…
