For Somebody/P, thank you for the ko-fi! ♡ <Episode 137>   In case of an incident.   ‘Seeing that Rue gave a similar warning… there seems to be something going on.’   I examined the swordmaster. I wondered if the Emperor and that man had some hidden plan I wasn’t aware of, but it was…

<Episode 136>   Just before my two arms could touch his body, his hand stretched out and pulled me towards him.   Rue tightly embraced me, taking my breath away. He left a deep kiss on my forehead, as if stamping it, and then gently kissed my eyelids and the area below my cheekbones.  …

<Episode 135>   The Emperor lived in the innermost part of the Imperial Palace. The space where he lived was very serene and calm, as if its silence was a law in itself, and it was intensely dazzling.   Squeak.   What greeted me as soon as the door opened was the majestic ceiling mural…

For Boogie, thank you for the ko-fi! ♡ <Episode 133>   Rowayne was an excellent hunter. Four out of five arrows he shot hit their target, and he accurately tracked the prey’s movement routes with his keen senses.   After about 30 minutes, the weight on my horse’s hind became heavy with nearly five prey….

For Boogie, thank you for the ko-fi! ♡ <Episode 134>   Raphael’s horse halted.   Soon, the vigilant eyes of the hunter which had been scouring the overgrown grasses turned to me.   “What I would do if Andert is alive?” His fierce gaze seemed to challenge me, as if saying, ‘How dare you?’  …

<Episode 132>   Why didn’t the emperor show up? Because of the maid, who heard about what happened at the banquet from me back at the townhouse, I didn’t have to search far for an answer.   “Showing the emperor’s well-being is one of the important means to enhance the unity of the nation. Not…

<Episode 131>   The story was simple. Viscountess Werkhord referred to the weakened financial state of the Werkhords’ and sought a noblewoman that could return the house to its former glory. However, I wasn’t the marriage partner the Werkhord family wanted for Rowayne.   “Well, Viscount Weatherwoods… To be honest, it’s a burdensome place to…

<Episode 130>   It was definitely a small voice, intended for only me to hear.   Nevertheless, the old men’s eyes became sharper. They must have heard it without difficulty, considering they honed their five senses rolling around on the battlefield. I consciously didn’t look back at Raphael.   Instead, I searched for the swordmaster….

<Episode 129>   Especially Count Rogenhoff. When I turned my head, I met his eyes and twitching lips.   ‘He must have a lot of questions about Andert for me.’   We hadn’t been able to have a proper conversation in the Zenail Castle because of the interrogations and the matter of the corps.  …

<Episode 128>   Jean couldn’t properly get up until the night of the hunting Festival.   One of her shoulders was pierced by the swordmaster, and her thigh was pierced by me, so Jean had to be stuck to bed. However, Jean’s complexion wasn’t entirely pale. The darkened side that had been subtly visible seemed…

<Episode 127>   I couldn’t give any answer. Unlike how I forcefully denied it to Desherro, the swordmaster wasn’t someone I could easily give a dismissal to. It was because I knew he wasn’t the type of person to make a statement without any evidence.   “You’ve improved.” The swordmaster quietly muttered as he examined…

<Episode 126>   “But it has nothing to do with the Viscount…” “Do you truly think it doesn’t?” “Well, of course, ‘report to me when you’re completely settled in your new life’ is no great oath by itself.”   I couldn’t believe that was the oath made between the two. As the swordmaster said, it…

The Peaceful Life Of A Maid Who Hides Her Power And Enjoys It, cover 2. <Episode 125>   * * * Few things were as important as being polished without a speck of dust in social life. In that respect, as the head of a household and a woman, it was my duty to maintain…

<Episode 123>   Frankly speaking, I was a bit embarrassed, Rue’s method of ‘helping’ was both radical and unfamiliar.   ‘Is this a demi-god thing?’ However, up until now, Rue had generally been relaxed and nonchalant, not unlike an ordinary person.   I wasn’t even angry at Rue’s proposition to kill my dear friend. I…

Episode 124   ‘Child?’   Was there something wrong with my ears? Or did Rue truly just announce he was going to have a baby with me?   “Rather than meeting some ignorant man you don’t know on the premise of reproductive activities, you’d be better off with me, won’t you?”   I had no…

<Episode 165>   Confidence rose as never before, but I looked at the floor without getting excited. I could see my steps little by little, gradually moving forward, as if overwhelming the opponent..   ‘Something’s not right. We’re clearly fighting on equal terms, but the swordmaster keeps retreating.’   …Could it be?   ‘Is he…
