Chapter 13 It was bad enough that they were even looking at Prim with desperate expressions. “I told you that when you come to meals, you have to dress properly! No, I’m scolding you, so why are you staring at me with those big, round eyes...?” Vianna had only looked at them because she did not know what to do after being scolded for wearing exactly what she had been told to wear. But even that was being used against her, and she looked as though she might really start crying. At…-

Chapter 12 Baroness Corvas desperately wanted to say, “Wouldn’t it be impossible even if you had any ingredient you wanted, with your level of skill?” but she held her tongue. They had invested far too much into this—her marriage to him, the money they had poured into this perfumery, the many years they had already wasted, pretending to be noble ladies while going around orphanages, and the countless hours they had spent digging holes and burying things. They could not give up…

Chapter 11 Prim calmly spoke again. “But Rosien, I’ll be back soon after I go.” “……What?” “We said we’re family even when we’re apart, right?” “No! We said we wouldn’t be apart! You promised me. You promised we wouldn’t separate……” Rosien knelt on the ground in front of Prim as he spoke. His desperate, urgent voice made Prim’s heart suddenly drop and ache as though it had been crushed. A sharp pain throbbed through the back of her head, as if…

Chapter 10 — You and I have been through something very important together, after all. You are also proof of my miracle. In other words, my lily of the valley is a sacred relic touched by my power, so it is as if there is a wide-open road between you and me. That is why I can do it with only a little fragrance. ‘……Then.’ Prim tightened her clasped hands. ‘What if I offer more fragrance?’ — Well…… if it is a fragrance you made properly, it is not completely…

Chapter 9 “I’ll definitely succeed and make things easier for you, Priestess.” In her previous life, by the time she had achieved success, this orphanage had already disappeared. Priestess Marcellia had died young from an illness after years of hardship, and the orphans of the orphanage, now without a guardian, had been scattered in all directions. Priestess Marcellia smiled gently. “Don’t say things like that. As long as you are happy, that is enough for me.” Even…

Chapter 8 Only after seeing that expression did Vianna run away as if fleeing outside, leaving Prim who had fallen on the floor behind. Prim remained frozen for a moment. Then she sighed and used the strength in her arms to barely climb onto the chair. The empty box was lying on the floor, but she no longer had the strength to pick it up. The arm she had strained trembled slightly. The children came back with their arms full of wild raspberries. The children who ate the sour ones that…

Chapter 7 While Baron and Baroness Corvas briefly disappeared to speak with Priestess Marcellia, the children chattered noisily. Naturally, the main topic was the violet candies that Baron and Baroness Corvas had given Prim. “Hey, Prim. Can I just smell it?” The children gathered around her, swallowing their saliva as they carefully asked. Prim almost told them that it was not a very good thing and that nobles did not even eat such things, but she stopped herself. Instead, she…

Chapter 6 Even so, not a single sound escaped his lips. Only his roughly tied red hair shook messily. He knew there were people somewhere who dreamed of things like that. Even when the two of them had been wandering around as orphans with nowhere to belong, the children of families who were a little better off in every village all dreamed of such things. Leave this tiny village, start as a mercenary, and become the Mercenary King. Catch a knight’s eye, become their squire,…

Chapter 5 Rosien gently wiped the water from the tops of Prim’s feet and dried them with his hand like a fan. Then, following Prim’s gaze, he looked at the bouquet and suddenly shouted, “Hey! Prim! Look at your hands, too.” “Ah, these are fine.” “They’re not fine at all!” Rosien stared at Prim’s hands, which were covered in little scratches from rose thorns. He opened his mouth wide, glanced at the bouquet once, then swallowed whatever he had been about to say…

Chapter 4 She really was happy to hear that. But considering how many times she had heard those words from various gods, probably hundreds of times in total, they were no longer enough to move her deeply. The bouquet stirred as if it were wriggling. Prim stared at it quietly before adding, “I am happy, but I’m worried that you might start talking like you did earlier and then get cut off halfway through.” — You care more about the oracle than you care about me! “Varin is…
