Chapter 21 Koreatown of the Ilgenta Vita Empire (14) A honeybee that had gathered pollen was caught in a spiderweb the moment it flew up. The spider blinked its four eyes and cut its prey into small pieces before putting them into its mouth. A young wild horse was caught by a lasso the moment it began its first run in life. With horseshoes driven into its hooves and a bit placed in its mouth, even if it rolled its eyes back, it could not see the open field. That was the power of fate. If there was no…

Chapter 20 Koreatown of the Ilgentavita Empire (13) The northern border of the Ilgentavita Empire was the Ajindbatri Mountains. It was a high-altitude region covered in eternal snow, with rugged terrain and steep mountains. No one knew exactly how wide the plateau was or how high the mountains were. Inside the mountains, native people formed tribes and lived by hunting. Their numbers were so small that even the central government of the Empire did not consider them worth conquering. The territory…

Chapter 19 Koreatown of the Ilgentavita Empire (12) That afternoon, the Duke's family sat around the tea table. Various cookies and cakes decorated the table beautifully. Hwanhee looked at them one by one. For example, the rectangular cookie with rounded corners was a langue de chat. It was French for "cat's tongue."

Chapter 17 Koreatown of the Ilgentavita Empire (10) “Why on earth do you eat something like salted cabbage?” No, actually, she knew. She knew what kind of food they had been trying to make, and she also knew there was no grand reason behind eating it at every meal. Even so, it was quite surprising because she had not expected it. It felt like hearing from a friend who had gone backpacking around Europe during vacation that they sold cup noodles at a cable car station on top of the Alps. By…

Chapter 16 Koreatown of the Ilgentavita Empire (9) When Hwanhee changed into clothes for going outside and came out, the carriage was waiting in front of the mansion. Adan opened the carriage door himself. Then he turned around and held out his hand to Hwanhee. She grabbed the hem of her skirt with one hand and took Adan's hand with the other.
