Chapter 6 A while later. When Dal-jae arrived at Life Tavern, he could not believe his eyes. “W-What in the world is all that?” Even though it was well past lunchtime, people were lined up all the way around the corner of the wall. It was the complete opposite of Sanmaru Tavern, where not even a shadow of a person could be seen. ‘People are lining up and waiting?

This time, it contained a guess that the Crown Prince was probably the son Empress Dowager had conceived with another man. The reason given was that the Emperor was surely impotent.

Chapter 21 Koreatown of the Ilgenta Vita Empire (14) A honeybee that had gathered pollen was caught in a spiderweb the moment it flew up. The spider blinked its four eyes and cut its prey into small pieces before putting them into its mouth. A young wild horse was caught by a lasso the moment it began its first run in life. With horseshoes driven into its hooves and a bit placed in its mouth, even if it rolled its eyes back, it could not see the open field. That was the power of fate. If there was no…

When she remembered the shameless face of the man who had calmly said that he had damaged Derek's carriage so that he couldn't come, Elisa curled her fingers into a fist. What Ethan had done was clearly a crime. If someone committed a crime, they deserved to be punished. Yes, that was right, but... Why couldn't she say that Ethan was the culprit?
