      HTRE 56 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 56   Kailef looked at the ring that seemed to shine even more brightly in Eroika’s hand and spoke. The ring, which had spent a long time sitting unused in a safe, was showing quite a strong presence now. For some reason, Eroika felt as though she should not refuse, so she immediately gave a small nod. Kailef was not usually the kind of person to make such a request, so the fact that he was asking her to take care of it made her think that it must be an important object. When she…

      HTRE 55 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 55   Their intertwined lips finally parted, and the two of them had to catch their breath for quite some time. Kailef still could not take his eyes off Eroica, but she could not look at him. Now that everything had stopped, the embarrassment that rushed over her was almost unbearable. This was another unfamiliar emotion. Unlike earlier, when she had been confidently taunting him, she was now so ashamed of herself for relying on Kailef with her whole body that she could only lower…

      HTRE 54 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 54   Her body lightly collided with his as the other hand that had not been holding her hair gently wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer. “If you were going to leave, you should have left long ago.” Her thick eyelashes trembled as he looked down at her. “Tell me, Eroika. Were you on your way back after trying and failing to escape? Or were you on your way back after thinking of another way to stab me in the back?” Kailef asked in a completely unhurried…

      HTRE 53 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 53   Zen felt uneasy. He felt uneasy about his younger sister trying to deceive him, and about his own narrow-mindedness in responding to her in the same way. But a knight had a duty called a sense of responsibility that could not be ignored. He felt sorry for Glie, but this was the Imperial Palace, and he was a knight of Kailef. Taking his younger sister to his master and finding out the truth was the natural thing to do. Eroica's room was located at the far end of Kailef's…

      HTRE 52 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 52   The fact that Eroika's thoughts had changed while he was taking his time was an unexpected variable. “It does not matter whether you saw it yourself or heard about it. Let me change the question. Besides you, is there anyone else who knows about this?” “I have never spoken about that matter before today.” Dandelion's voice also became much quieter. She could no longer tell what the woman would say next. “That is fortunate. Listen carefully. You and I never met…

      HTRE 51 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 51   There was no sign of Dandelion inside the room. However, guided only by his voice, the men gestured for Eroica to enter. Eroica stepped inside and quietly looked around, but there was no one there. Even though the situation was frightening enough to make anyone uneasy, Eroica simply stood there and waited. In the end, it was Dandelion who could not bear the silence any longer. “Welcome. I ask for your understanding, as there was a reason for the discourtesy I showed you…

      HTRE 50 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 50   At Soma’s sincere words, Glie smiled brightly once again. “It’s okay. Thanks to someone, I even got to enter the Imperial Palace, so I think it’s nice.” Glie lifted her head to meet Soma’s eyes. There was a difference of more than two spans between them, so she had to look up at him for quite a while, but she liked even that. Because Glie suddenly looked directly into his eyes, Soma felt his face grow hot. Even so, the thought that he no longer wanted to avoid her…

      HTRE 49 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 49   “I’m doomed. Where am I?” The Imperial Palace was far too large to cover with her footsteps alone. Glie suddenly became very flustered when she realized that she had even forgotten the way back to her room. She was so distracted that she failed to notice the person standing right in front of her. “How…… how are you here……?” “Eek.” Soma had noticed the blonde woman wandering through the corridors for a while now, and he could hardly believe his eyes.…

      HTRE 48 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 48   “Where did that bastard go?” I could tell from Jen’s voice that he was slightly furious. He looked ready to kill the man who had been persistently tormenting his younger sister right away. “He really won’t show up anymore. Actually, a knight helped me.” “A knight? Who? There shouldn’t be any knight in the Empire whom I don’t know.” “I didn’t hear his name. He disappeared in the blink of an eye.” Glie’s expression, as if she were lost in…

      HTRE 47 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 47   There was no longer any way for Eroika to avoid Tiller, who had folded his large body and settled down beside her. He gestured toward the seat next to him. Eroika sat beside Tiller and stared blankly into the air. It was also a sign that she was waiting for him to speak. “Do you remember when you first asked me to teach you the sword? Back then, Lady Eroika was still afraid of me. You didn't speak to me as comfortably as you do now, either.” He remembered the day Eroika,…
