Chapter 41 King of the Sages, Rasus (3) As the night grew deeper, the people in the streets began to disperse, carrying with them the joy and lingering excitement of the festival's first day. Harin still could not hide how excited she was as she entered the inn's dining hall with Shuriel. They had enjoyed the festival so much that they had almost forgotten how tired they were from traveling. Since many people seemed to have come from other places specifically to see the Festival of Mages,…-

Chapter 40 King of the Sages, Rasus (2) Thanks to riding Akrum, Harin and Shuriel were able to cross the border with ease. They continued flying for quite some time after crossing the border, eventually arriving at Rivite, the capital of Zairen. Even though the sun was already setting and the sky was painted red with the evening glow, the streets below were still crowded with people. “I’m sorry, Akrum… And thank you so much!” After dropping them off in a relatively quiet…

Chapter 39 King of the Sages, Rasus (1) “…Mirharin said the same thing when she learned the location of Clavis. Perhaps Jurak simply doesn’t want to give up his position as the firstborn.” Harin’s body trembled with anger before she even realized it. According to Shaiyen, ever since the gods split apart, disasters that even the gods could not control had begun to spread across the surface world, where the balance had been broken. Yet she could not believe that the one called the…

Chapter 38 The only time Osiris had ever seen the manifested form of Shaiyen, the God of Frost whom he worshipped, was when he was twelve years old. It was the day he had been chosen as the Fourth King and entered the Central Temple inside the palace alone during his coronation ceremony. It was an embarrassing memory, but young Osiris had been absolutely terrified back then. He had heard about how miserable the end of the Third King had been after he was dethroned for committing an…

Chapter 37 Following Shuriel’s suggestion, their destination was decided to be the ancient temple of Shaiyen, the God of Frost. They left the inn in the dim light before dawn so they could set out for their destination. Since Osiris needed to visit the temple as quickly as possible and then return to the royal palace, they decided to fly there on their divine beasts. Akrum, the black panther divine beast, and Hamar, the tiger divine beast whose fur had been dyed golden, were waiting for them in front…

Chapter 36 “So… that was your mother, Freya.” Deep sorrow filled Osiris’s voice. “At first… I thought I should hand her over as Oberon ordered. But before doing so, I went to the temple to hear Shaiyen’s words. Strangely, though, he said nothing to me. And when I continued to hear nothing from him after that, I… became terribly frightened without knowing why. I wondered if I had done something wrong and lost my qualification to be king.” The anxiety and confusion he…

Chapter 35 A Meeting of Three (4) The shock of Harin’s words made Osiris lose all will to attack Shuriel. After the temperature, which had dropped below freezing, returned to normal and the ice in the room melted, Osiris opened the door and walked out. Several people, including the inn employee, had gathered in the hallway, whispering fearfully. One of them, a man who appeared to be the innkeeper, went pale when he saw the destroyed room. Without saying a word, Osiris handed him a large…

Chapter 34 A Meeting of Three (3) At Osiris’s words that he was going to kill him, Shuriel simply frowned and stared at him in silence. Worried that someone might see what was happening, Harin hurriedly shut the door and ran toward Shuriel. “Father! Stop!” Osiris was horrified when he saw Harin running toward Shuriel. He immediately surrounded her with walls of ice, blocking her from reaching him. Harin stood helplessly in front of the ice wall and shouted at Osiris. “Stop!…

Chapter 33 A Meeting of Three (2) Even as he spoke to her with a warm smile, Harin still felt as if she were dreaming. “How did you… know I was here?” Instead of answering, he raised his left hand and showed her the silver ring on his ring finger. It was clearly identical to the one on Harin’s left ring finger. It was an artifact that allowed the two of them to know each other’s locations. He had definitely told her about it before, yet she had asked him again… Even Harin…

Chapter 32 A Meeting of Three (1) The night Harin first slept beside Akrum was warm. She woke to the morning sunlight filtering through the cracks in the cave and the sound of birds chirping. Only then did she realize that she had somehow fallen asleep with her face buried in Akrum’s warm, soft belly. Considering Akrum’s prickly personality, he could easily have disliked having her body pressed against him like that. Yet he had quietly curled up on the cave floor without a single…
