We’ll talk about the details tomorrow. Tomorrow. Without fail.” Right—he’d definitely said that. But of all times to confront me, it was…

Part 2 – Episode 39 The door closed. Alright, time to talk to the rock. I gently took out the stonified Rue and Ash, from my bag. [The Sword Party is one of the most overwhelmingly supported factions in the Republic of Contaninos.] But no matter how much I tapped the rock, it showed no…

Part 2 Episode 38 Republic of Containos, deep within the Legion. On majestically spread marble tiles devoid of a single blade of grass, towering limestone statues stood in two rows, seemingly piercing the sky. These sculptures filled with a diverse range of figures—men, women, elderly, youth, and children alike, bore only one name: “Deus.” Deus—the…

Part 2 Chapter 37 ‘To make Natasha genuinely angry, of all people. That’s impressive.’ But something felt off. This wasn’t the first time Andert was being courted by a man or a woman.

Part 2 Chapter 36 Raphael’s face turned cold. He quietly gazed at Trevia’s face, which, like the daughters of noble families, exuded dignity in every small action. Despite being just over twenty years old, she possessed the boldness and composure that middle-aged noblewomen usually have. But what bothered him more was the sharp, biting intent…

Part 2 Chapter 33 Natasha hugged my body so tightly that I couldn’t even breathe before raising her head to look up at me with eyes that held surprise. “Ah, I made a stupid mistake.

Part 2 – 32 In life, there are days when you become scared of the heavens even if you haven’t committed any sins. For me, today was that day. “Long live the Andert Fager!” “Long be the hero’s return!” To think that the hardships I faced in Ragel in the past were the last hardships…

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.

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…

Part 2 – Episode 26 Two days had passed since I arrived in Brisher and was taking a rest. The hotel bell rang incessantly. “Evacuate, everyone! This is an emergency.
