Chapter 26 It was the first time in several days that he was returning to the castle. The cold night wind clawed at his cheeks as it passed, but the heat that had been troubling his mind for days still would not settle down. Unlike Bi, who had fallen asleep as though she had been waiting for him, he could not sleep all night, and he kept thinking about it. "There will be no marital duties between us." If Bi found out that, despite saying those words as though he had no interest in…-

Chapter 25 Lumiere withdrew her gaze from Erika and approached her. “Move aside.” “But…” Belia hesitated with a stiff expression. In a situation where every second mattered, she was still hesitating. Instead of saying it twice, Lumiere pushed Belia aside and quietly knelt in front of Erika. “Young lady, look at me.” “Huff, huff, huup…” Could she not even hear her? Erika could not keep her head up and only gasped for breath. ‘First, I need to do…

Chapter 53 I snapped back before straightening my upper body again. Anyway, it was true. As for my inner conflict, I could deal with it myself later, or if I wanted to discuss it with someone, it would have to be Rayleigh. If my ability really was as Soo-hyun expected, then, as he said, his ability and mine were quite compatible. Soo-hyun could see countless possibilities leading toward the future, and by manipulating or blocking other variables so that we could move toward that future, he…-

Chapter 52 Soo-hyun answered my question without much concern. —I'll answer each of the things in Noona's memo. I did think about eating a sandwich or salad. But then, as if crossing out that sentence, I changed my mind and decided to eat gukbap instead. However, during that process, I thought of a few more menu options. “But in the end, you ate gukbap, right?” —Noona's instructions didn't perfectly reflect everything about me. There was room for something else to happen. If…

Chapter 55 Cut the Problem Off at the Root (1) Even after taking him down once, the guy kept coming at me. “Hu, huup……!” Whoosh—. Bang. Bang—! But it changed nothing. He kept getting slammed onto the hard wooden bunk. Maybe because all the members of his platoon were watching, Min Ho-seung showed no sign of backing down. But that did not last long. “Rest. Charge!” “……What the hell are those two doing right now?” “Ah,…-

Chapter 54 What Must Be Abandoned, What Must Be Protected — (6) How much time had passed since that incident? When I called Min Ho-seung outside the mess hall, he casually ran a hand through his hair as he followed me. Of course, as a soldier—and one with the same rank as me, Private First Class—he barely had any hair long enough to run his hand through. “Min Ho-seung.” “Yes?” “You're not even giving your rank and name anymore.” “Ah… Private First Class Min…

Chapter 53 What Must Be Abandoned, What Must Be Protected — (5) How much time had passed since that incident? “Charge!” “Charge—!” Bok Young-gyu, the youngest member of the Logistics Department, really did end up receiving a commendation along with a special leave. When the incident first happened, most of the officers, including the Logistics officer, had been nothing but worried. But once the incident reached the ears of the division commander, he reportedly praised…

Chapter 24 “I have a wind spirit. Wind is the power of harmony. So it calms Your Highness’s spirit when it runs wild.” “Does everyone from the Kingdom of Zephyros have the power of a spirit?” “Of course not. I’m the only one.” “How did you get it?” “…I don’t really know.” Lea could not explain here the long and complicated story of how she awakened the power of a spirit, including what happened in her previous life. “There is one thing I know for…-

Chapter 69 Cheon Jun-ho (1) He had finished everything that needed to be done. The materials from Jörmungandr would be delivered once processing was complete, so he could leave that to the others. More importantly, he had just discovered that he was connected to the increase in the frequency of Gate appearances. Considering that the other side was busy putting its own affairs in order, it was better for both sides if he disappeared for now. So Jeongwoo got out of his hospital bed, stretched his…-

Chapter 68 The Heroic Feat (2) From the perspective of ordinary people, the greatest threat the world had faced in recent times was Jörmungandr, which had crossed the Pacific. The mere fact that it was heading toward Japan had caused the entire world to tremble like this, so there was no need to say more. However, a sense of crisis was highly personal and relative. If someone asked Jeongwoo, the central figure in the subjugation, "Was Jörmungandr also the greatest threat of your life?" his…
