Chapter 48 I couldn't help turning my eyes away because I felt strangely embarrassed. Ray wasn't the type to tease me or call me by some strange name anyway, so I nodded. “Okay. What do you want to call me?” “Since I'm Ray... how about Sei?” His face slowly turned red, as if he was embarrassed too. My face grew hot as well. ‘Matching nicknames...’ It felt way too embarrassing. When I couldn't answer, Ray looked at me and asked, “Is it not okay?” Whine... I…-

Chapter 47 What kind of investor in this world would be so desperate to give someone money? I only laughed, but Ari was serious, so I had no choice but to tell her I would do as she said and calm her down. ‘If this keeps up, maybe I won’t have to ask my parents for investment money? No, wait. Should I just accept a little from Ari? It’s not good for friends to lend each other money, though…….’ It was advice I had heard from senior merchants in the past. It wasn’t like I had…

Chapter 26 The expedition set out the next morning. Lilia's fever had not gone down since last night, so in the end, we put her in a wagon. We pushed the sacks of grain to one side and laid down two blankets to make a place for her to lie down, but seeing how small the child looked lying there made me uneasy. I rode in the wagon with her as well. There was no way I could leave Lilia alone in a shaking wagon in that condition. Lilia did not regain consciousness and open her eyes until…-

Chapter 30 She stirred the pot once more and checked the seasoning of the broth. The red noodles caught on her chopsticks, rose into the air, and then dropped back into the pot with a plop. “Please line up. It’s first come, first served today.” She had said it casually, but several knights actually took a step forward. “Ah!” Seeing the knights lining up, Se-hee looked at Cassian. ‘It’s probably better to serve the Duke first.’ He was a regular customer and…-

Chapter 27 After the duke left, Pesha thought Owen might at least say something about the party, but he said nothing. Not only that, he even looked peaceful, perhaps because the troublesome matter had been resolved. Pesha was conflicted. ‘Is he really okay? Shouldn't I refuse even now?’ As far as she knew, the last time Owen had attended a party held in the capital was the very party where she had openly rejected his engagement. ‘Wouldn't anyone who went through something…-

Chapter 31 There was no doubt that it was the latter. If rumors spread that you could go to the Nanterre Market and buy an oriental fan for eighty francs when it cost a hundred francs elsewhere, and that you could see and choose the fans yourself, then of course people would flock there. “But I still find it difficult to agree with Miss Adele’s suggestion that we should build shops for them. Why should we be responsible for them selling their goods without even a proper roof because…-

Chapter 26 When Sebardo appeared, everything was settled in an instant. Rosien could never forget how he had felt at that moment. All of his heart seemed to collapse at once, leaving him overwhelmed with relief. They were alive. Prim was safe. He was relieved. And at the same time, he thought. If it were not for him and the others, he would never have been able to protect Prim. How could this be called a talent? When Prim suddenly vomited blood, cried from the pain, and fainted,…-

Chapter 26 At that time. Daegyo Market, which had been assigned to Song Do-hyeon. The occasional cries of merchants calling out to customers echoed across the ground, which had been heated by the scorching sun. However, it was nowhere near as crowded as before. People exhausted by the heat would look over the goods for a moment before immediately leaving the market. “Hmm……” The merchants watched them go with disappointed looks. Song Do-hyeon entered the shop of…-

Chapter 68 “Ha-yeon, take a great picture of me.” Yoo Hyun-seong stood tall with the most famous temple in the area behind him. One hand was on his hip, while the other was making a V sign. Ha-yeon stared at him for a moment before speaking. “You look like an uncle taking pictures while hiking.” “I am an uncle. I hate to admit it, but I am.” Yoo Hyun-seong seemed satisfied with the picture he had taken. Then he looked around and muttered, “But why is there no one on…-

Chapter 67 Udagamandalam, Tamil Nadu, southern India. India did have a center that oversaw Awakened, but its influence was concentrated in New Delhi, the capital of India. Because of that, they were in no position to expect any cooperation from them. And Han Si-woo did not want that kind of cooperation in the first place. ‘It would only make things unnecessarily complicated.’ Getting involved with a foreign group of Awakened would only create troublesome problems. For that…
