Chapter 18 The early dawn was still dark. Blasion was sitting in his office. He quietly stared at his hand, which was tightly wrapped in bandages. Lionel had stubbornly stopped Blasion when he tried to leave immediately. “I won’t feel at ease if I let you go like this. At the very least, please let me dress the wound. It’s a fourth-degree burn, so I know it probably won’t make much of a difference.” Because she had insisted so firmly, Blasion had no choice but to receive treatment in…-

Chapter 17 Sizzle— The sound of flesh burning against scorching-hot metal filled the air. I held my breath and stared at the Duke's hand. The Duke slowly pulled his hand out of the fireplace. His hand had turned as black as charcoal, the burned skin splitting apart to reveal raw red tissue underneath. It was a sight that made even the person watching shudder. “C-crazy……” The Viscountess stopped halfway through her words and covered her mouth. Adrian stood completely…

Chapter 16 Every time the Duke crooked a finger, the Viscount was slammed into the ceiling and then the floor. Debris flew from both the ceiling and the floor. Viscountess Patricia screamed. “Darling!” “Apologize right now. Apologize for raising your pathetic son into an even more pathetic excuse for a man.” “Ghk, cough…… P-please, let me go……” “Still haven't come to your senses?” BANG! This time, the Viscount's body flew into the wall. The picture frame…

Chapter 15 Inside the carriage heading toward the Viscount of Dorset’s estate. The Duke asked me various questions. “Young Master Dorset didn’t seem like the sort of person who had the nerve to scheme with a black magician. Am I mistaken?” I shook my head. “You’re not. In fact, you saw him very accurately.” Kaillen tilted his head. “Then that makes it even more puzzling. The fact that he possesses the watch the black magician took from you means he must have received it…

Chapter 14 Late at night, in the Imperial Prince’s Palace of the Rizenberg Empire. The blond man lying in bed slowly sat up. He called out toward the empty balcony. “Scarlet. Are you there?” “Did you call for me?” A man draped in black robes emerged from the darkness. He naturally lowered himself to one knee. “Report on the current situation at the Carseido estate.” At the blond man’s command, the robed man began to report. “As you know, things have changed somewhat…

Chapter 13 “What, what kind of medicine is that? And Lionel isn’t the kind of woman who cares about appearances. She’d love me just the way I am……” “‘Love me for who I am’ is the kind of bullshit an unattractive loser says.” The man clicked his tongue at Adrian’s defensive response. “Inner beauty is important, of course. But you have a problem that comes before that. Look in the mirror and think objectively. Do you really look like someone whose inner beauty a person would…

Chapter 12 2. “Rio. Wake up.” Blasion slowly opened his eyes. Brilliant sunlight poured down around him. The soft sensation of grass brushed against his fingertips. He absently ran a hand through his bangs, then abruptly sat upright. His eyes widened when he saw the black hair hanging down over his face. The pink-haired woman sitting in front of him asked worriedly, “Are you all right? Does anything hurt?” “……” Black hair, and the name Rio. With those two clues…

Chapter 11 The accelerated-aging diet ended in failure. In many ways, it was a complete defeat for me. For starters, as expected, the three taste testers couldn’t endure this outrageous diet for very long. They happily ate it for two days, but by the third day, their eating pace had noticeably slowed. And on the third day, I caught them sneaking pickles into the room inside their sleeves. “Oh ho…… You’ve brought something rather interesting.” Siwoo hurriedly tried to make an…

Chapter 10 For an entire week, I conducted health checkups on every servant in the Carseido mansion. I measured their height and weight and, with support from the hospital, even carried out simple blood tests. It was a fairly thorough examination. And so, after several busy days passed— “Doctor, the ingredients you ordered have finally arrived!” Kaelen finally announced the arrival of the food supplies. I headed toward the kitchen with him and the duke. Inside the kitchen were…

Chapter 9 “Accelerated aging? What is that?” Everain asked, and Lionel answered. “Good question. To understand accelerated aging, you first need to know about the concept of slow aging.” Lionel began explaining step by step. “Slow aging, or the slow-aging diet, was a type of diet that was once popular in Korea…… no, I mean, somewhere in the East. To put it simply, the idea is that if you consistently eat healthy foods, you can slow down the rate at which your body ages. There…
