      by Ember heart — Chapter 101 Ah, Struggle (5) “Ms. Violetta!” The woman had dark brown curly hair skillfully pinned up, and she was wearing clothes covered in frills and ribbons, as if they were the taste of a young girl. She was not wearing the hat with dyed feathers that she usually had, but there was no doubt that it was her. Juaieye unconsciously raised her voice as she called out to her. Violetta, who had been hanging her head like someone who had done something wrong, looked around and recognized…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 100   Ah, Struggle (4) The next day, Juaiye woke up after a long, dreamless sleep and had bread and water for breakfast. As soon as she got up, she saw the bag she had placed by the door. Realizing that this was her last morning in this room made her feel strange. It felt as if she were a child graduating from school and leaving for somewhere far away. After spending so long only worrying about surviving, the feeling of finally finding a place where there were people she loved and who…

      SPRFG 99 Cover
      by Ember heart — Chapter 99   She thought of the person she had met on the way. Was his name Walter? She remembered hearing that he worked as a coachman. She hoped that reality would not be too harsh for him, but there was only so much she could do. All she could offer was a simple prayer, and nothing more. Perhaps, in this world, the only thing people born in the same era and living together could give each other was empathy. Jua-iye shook her head and pushed the thought away. Summer nights were the time…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 98   Ah, Struggle (2) Even a low mountain has a watershed, so it would be difficult for a human life, which has far more twists and turns, to have no turning points. A turning point that, once passed, makes it impossible to return to what came before. Juaiye had always realized that such a moment had just passed only afterward, when she surrendered herself to the anguish filled with regret, remorse, and self-reflection over everything that had happened. For the first time, she vaguely…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 97 Ah, Struggle (1) “Jua-iye, should I close the window?” He thought the wind blowing around sunset was still rather cold. His lover, sitting across from him at the table, did not seem to hear him. Her eyes were half-closed as she savored the taste of the grains of rice rolling around in her mouth. Uajozrbel, sitting beside Pillod, raised his head from his plate and looked back and forth between the two of them. Then he quietly went back to eating. Although he had never been defeated…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 96   The Republican and the Princess (20) Small footsteps could be heard. Although she was wearing slippers, her feet did not drag at all. The princess placed her right hand on the railing and looked around with her head slightly tilted. After confirming that neither the Archmage nor his lover was there, and that only this boy was inside the house, she soon turned her gaze toward him. The boy revolutionary stood up. Both the princess and the boy knew that he was not doing so out of…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 95   The Republican and the Princess (19) Philod recognized the paper immediately. It was one of the newspapers Mors printed to spread news quickly. They had said they were holding an internal meeting, but he could easily imagine them hearing the news during the meeting, stopping everything, rolling up their sleeves, and rushing to the printing press. When he looked surprised, Uazobel read it aloud. “I hear the House of Nobles is about to vote on a new bill.” Even though he had…

I'm sorry, Ellie.” “Do you... not like holding me?” When I asked him so directly, Ruth couldn't hide his embarrassment. “No, it's not that...” “If it's not that, then what is it?” “Ahem! Hm, hm!” Ruth cleared his throat repeatedly before reaching for a glass of cold water and downing…

      by Aqsa — Chapter 48 Ruth smiled and nodded. “There’s a place on the very bottom floor of the tower that only you and I can open.” “The very bottom floor? How many floors are there?” At my question, Ruth became vague. “Hmm. Anyway, it’s deep down. But it’s not a good place for you to go in your current state. You need to be able to use enough of the Divine’s holy power to open it.” The Divine’s holy power. That was a concept I couldn’t even dream of using in my current…

      by Aqsa —  Chapter 28 My Husband Lives Inside a Painting In stark contrast to the noisy banquet hall, the corridor was so quiet that not a single person's shadow could be seen. It wasn't until I was left alone in the middle of the chilly corridor that I finally came to my senses. What was I thinking? Just because he had hair that resembled my husband's, I had followed him without a second thought? The realization that I still hadn't escaped the shadow of my dead husband felt like proof that I…
