Chapter 18 Loreston continued whispering, completely unaware of what had been going on. “She’s a generous person, but she’s very particular about people. And she seems to like you quite a lot, junior.” Adelia secretly rubbed her fluttering heart. Even so, this was the first party she had attended with Loreston, and she had been terrified that it might end with nothing but unpleasant memories. Seeing the relieved expression on Adelia’s face, Loreston suddenly seemed to think of…-

Chapter 17 Only then did Adelia open her tightly shut eyes... And upon seeing Roaston’s face upside down, she instinctively clamped her mouth shut with a startled gasp. Roaston carefully helped her back onto her feet. His expression was peculiar. He seemed to be smiling, yet at the same time, there was something displeased about his expression. “I-I’m sorry, d-dear...” “You have nothing to apologize to me for. I’m the one who should be sorry. I left you alone, and you nearly got…

Chapter 23 Later That Same Day — Chakho Gabsa Training Grounds, Changdeokgung Palace Kang-soe, the servant from the private residence and a senior officer of the Chakho Gabsa, came running over. He was dressed in training clothes, with beads of sweat gathered on his forehead. Even while running, his gaze never wavered. From the moment he had heard that the king had summoned him, he had already composed himself. I stood at the edge of the training grounds, watching the three hundred men move…-

Episode 22 Four Days Later, Changdeokgung Palace — Royal Council Chamber A memorial had arrived from the Office of Justice, and I unfolded it. It contained the punishments handed down to those involved in selling and buying official appointments among the local governors of Hwanghae, Pyeongan, and Jeolla Provinces. Six had been dismissed from office, three sentenced to exile, and four suspended from their positions. A separate disciplinary record had been attached for the Military Commander of…

Chapter 21 “Today, I have something to tell you all.” The Royal Council Chamber fell silent. The ministers’ gazes all converged on Queen Dowager Shinjeong, Jo, seated behind the screen, before returning to me. Queen Dowager Shinjeong, Jo, said nothing. I was the one who spoke first. “It has been more than two months since the Uigeumbu investigation into the sale and purchase of government offices began. Yet there is still no conclusion. Let me ask you this. Hwanghae Province, Pyeongan…

chapter 20 H0w to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife Amid the dazzling light that completely obscured her vision, all Illin could see was the shadow of her hand. At that moment, Illin realized that the Mille flower was no longer in her hand. “Uh?” Arden’s hand, which had been touching hers, was gone too. She looked around. There was no sign of the three elders or Arden. Illin was alone in the Sun. Without realizing it, she looked down at the ground. Her thick winter…-

chapter 19 How to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife “Annie?” When Annie remained silent for too long, Illin called her again. Startled, Annie immediately answered. “That’s right. Apparently, they believe that the Molli tribe we missed that day has joined forces with the Yester tribe.” Without saying anything, Illin walked over to the bookshelf. She never made the maids do trivial tasks for her. Although the maids felt apologetic whenever they saw her doing things herself,…

chapter 18 How to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife “Your Grace!” It was extremely rare for a thunderous shout to erupt from the seventh floor of the Vipelten estate. Of course, it wasn’t as though it had never happened during the nearly twenty years that the current Duke of Vipelten had been around. It was just that those people were carried out as statues, having lost the ability to raise their voices ever again. “You must restrain yourself!” But this man was one of the rare…

Chapter 16 The handwriting is a complete mess……. “……Seriously.” A hollow laugh escaped him. This—this handwriting was actually kind of cute…… He suddenly shot to his feet. “No, wait. What is this?” Why…… “Why is she gone again!!!” The bed was completely empty. He rushed outside like a madman. Then he stopped dead. He instinctively froze at the sight of an impossibly clear spring day. He had expected it…… but the sight before him was even…-

Chapter 17 How to Survive as the Monster Duke’s Wife Illin had never done anything that would give people reason to suspect her. Although she came from the sunny regions, she was a quiet bride with nothing particularly suspicious about her. Perhaps if it hadn't been the Delrose knights who were caught in the avalanche, and if this man hadn't been among those who had set out with them, they might have simply buried her along with the secret. It was only when Illin thought that far that she…
