      by Ember heart — Chapter 10   ‘That man is Nick Paroa. Iron Horse Duke Nick Paroa.’ If he won, he would gain an enormous amount of fame. Even if he lost, his opponent was not someone who would bring him much shame. That was why he had chosen him in the first place. He wanted to use Nick as a stepping stone to restore his tarnished honor. ‘If things go badly, stab the horse’s neck again.’ The prince had whispered those words to Xylus before the match began. It was supposed to be a last…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 9   The prince’s lips stiffened, and his hand trembled slightly. Through the narrow slit in his helmet, his cold eyes glinted sharply. ‘…When the hell is this bastard going to stop growing?’ His disgusting cousin was yet another head taller than the last time he had seen him. That was one of the things about the man that constantly irritated the Pig Prince. Instead of craning his neck to look at Paroa’s face, the prince merely raised his eyes. Not lifting his head was…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 8   “So when that Garding Knight used the mountain horse as an excuse, you must have thought, ‘There it is.’” The Jeroli Crown Prince must have been holding quite a grudge over being refused. The man snorted as if the prince’s petty intentions were painfully obvious. Hearing that, Chyroneia blamed himself. “Then it really was because of me. If only I had handled it more wisely….” “It’s not your fault, Chyro.” “Maybe I could have turned sooner and…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 7 “What if you lose?” “If I lose….” Lanram, who had remained silent as if she had no mouth at all, suddenly asked the question. The man continued with an interested look on his face. “I’ll give today’s glass rose to you. No matter which of those two wins, I’ll be the champion anyway.” The man looked at the horses returning to their starting positions. Whether it was confidence based on solid grounds or just empty boasting, his attitude was certainly worthy of a…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 6 “Your final opponent is Kanne.” The man spoke in a blunt, curt voice, pointing with his chin toward the womanizer Kanne. The man being pointed out smiled with his narrow, well-shaped eyes. “So you mean I should fight and come back with that kind of attitude, right?” Kanne folded his arms tightly and gave a mocking smile before leaning toward Lord Paroa’s ear as if to whisper. “But first, I’ll have to beat Yarmuk.” Kanne said it as though that was completely…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 5   Salt Castle rose majestically before them. Ivory-colored flags bearing white salt fluttered from the watchtowers that leaned out beyond the castle walls, while unfamiliar coats of arms lined the battlements below. They were most likely the marks of other noble powers who had come to visit. The background cloth came in all kinds of colors—green, red, blue, yellow-brown—each helping to show the individuality of the families they represented. But regardless of the material, the…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 4   “What are you going out for? What’s there to see at someone else’s wedding?” “It’s not someone else’s wedding. It’s the princess’s wedding.” Lanram spoke with a pout, still unable to shake off her anger toward him. Wherever a festival was held, seagulls naturally gathered to feed on the scraps. The goods sold by merchants, both large and small, were interesting, and the clowns in ridiculous costumes or the songs of wandering minstrels provided plenty of…

      AFJE 10 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 10 “Ha-yoon!” Seeing Ha-yoon in the distance, Ok-bun hurriedly ran out to greet her. “Oh my! Honey! Come out here! Ha-yoon is back!” “What did you say?” Hearing that, Munsik threw down his axe and firewood and rushed out as fast as he could. “Oh my! Who is this? It really is Ha-yoon!” Munsik’s face was filled with disbelief. His eyes quickly turned red. Seeing the two of them, Ha-yoon was overwhelmed with emotion as well. “Uncle! Auntie!” “How……

      by Ember heart — Chapter 9   “How did it go?” When Ha-yoon returned, all the prisoners immediately pressed their faces against the bars. The only thing anyone cared about in the prison now was whether Ha-yoon would be punished. “Haah……” Instead of answering, Ha-yoon sank down against the wall. The prisoners gathered around her, curious. “Why? Didn’t it go well? Why are you sighing like that?” “Well…… I managed to get past the slave issue.” “You did?” “But now…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 8 Clank. The sound of iron chains echoed through the prison as the jailer roughly shoved Ha-yoon forward. “Get inside, over there.” “Ugh!” “I’ll call you in for questioning soon, so don’t try anything foolish. Just stay quiet.” Bang―! With those words, the jailer left. At the same time, a heavy silence descended over the dark cell. “Ugh, what a smell…” The stench of rotten straw, mold, and various body odors mixed together and assaulted her…
