Vol. 3 Chapter 98: Dagger Technique & Family Issue (Part 2)

It was dinnertime. Today was a tiring day, and I limply plopped down on my seat on the table along with a long sigh. Adding more slashes was harder and more tiring than I thought. Oh wait no, I think I have expected it. But it doesn't change the fact that I want to sleep right now.

But a girl has to eat.

Although,...

Vol. 3 Chapter 97: Dagger Technique & Family Issue (Part 1)

“Here, princess.”

Elson handed me a plain dagger, which I gently received. Like I was someone scared of holding something sharp. I mean, I wouldn’t want to nick myself, knives were scary~. They were dangerous.

I stared at the dagger with wide and intrigued eyes. Finally, I’ve come this far. My precious dag...

Vol. 3 Chapter 96: Preventing a Mistake

I strolled through the palace hallway with uneasy steps. Probably because I was feeling a bit anxious. I was heading to my father’s office with my servants. Uncle Meril had left, there was no need for him to be there. Incidentally, he didn’t want to get a negative impression that he was conspiring with me or something on ...

Vol. 3 Chapter 95: Catching Up

I headed for my office and waited. I sat on my usual spot, by my desk reading a book, while often looking through the window, at the winter view. Yeah, I have become a true bookworm! That’s right, that checks all the boxes, right?

I’m reading a lot of books, and reading is all I can do when I do nothing. And I’m s...

Prologues: Power & Death (New book announcement!)

Hi! I would like to promote my new book series that I mentioned in the past. Will be available in E-book and Paperback formats. E-book is currently available for pre-order on Amazon. Will als...

Vol. 3 Chapter 94: Clingy Estelia

It was a rest day. Yes, rest day, where I got to rest my entire being, whether it be my physical body or my mind. A day to spend at my leisure. A moment of peace. I mean, sometimes you just gotta rest lest you find yourself in an endless loop of insanity.

I wanted to confront my father about his decision regarding Elede...

Estelia padoru padoru!

It's December! Christmas is coming! And I've prepared a little gift for everyone!

Vol. 3 Chapter 93: Mr. Snowman

The world was painted white in the seas of snow — okay, nevermind with the flowery words. The snow has thickened in the weeks that passed. And everyone in the palace was scrambling to remove the piling snow that was obstructing everyday life.

Some guys even have to climb up the palace roof lest we want to make things ...

Vol. 3 Chapter 92: Dance Practice and Estevan's Treats (Part 2)

We arrived at the dining room, servants were already on standby in case we needed anything. On the long table already placed the covered dishes, waiting to be unveiled. As we approached the seats, servants stepped in to pull back the chairs.

Mine was the exception however, as I was unexpectedly placed at the head of the...

Vol. 3 Chapter 91: Dance Practice and Estevan's Treats (Part 1)

I sat by the palace entrance, waiting for a couple of guests that were coming. My hair was meticulously tied in order to shorten it, yeah it has gone extremely long. Although, I have no intention of cutting it.

It’s been several days since I was relieved of my duties — since I was fired from my job. And I have to sa...

Vol. 3 Chapter 90: Attempts at Armament Magic

I kinda woke up on the right side of the bed today, as I have been for a few days. Huh, looks like being relieved of my duties brought some ease within me. Despite how displeased I may be, being removed from a job made my mental health better. So let’s all quit our jobs!

Joking~.

I have been pretty much clueless...

Vol. 3 Chapter 89: Mercy

Count Saerus was sitting down on a chair, in front of him was a mirror. He was ready for the party about to take place later, his hair was combed neatly, and he was in his finest formal clothes. It was a gathering, and as any event, it should be a time for celebration, and joy. However, such positive feelings were not evident...

Prologues: Power & Death (New book series news)

Hello everyone! I just want to share something about the other project I mentioned in the past.

Finally it's about finished! It's coming soon in Amazon, and will be available in ebook and paperback. Will also be in Kindle Unlimited!

The image attached is a mockup of the book, looks good :). Will give more news soo...

Vol. 3 Chapter 88: Repercussion

“What did you do, daughter?”

My father spoke in a grim and stern tone as he sat down on his desk, his one hand tapping on it.

“Which do you mean?”

“Count Farrimond, you gave him something. It has come to my attention that a poison has been requested. Is it what you gave him?”

“Oh, yes.”...

Vol. 3 Chapter 87: Confess

The carriage rattled slightly as they entered the capital city gates. Saerus, with his sword on his lap, looked through the window. With him was Marquis Teristro, sitting on the opposite side.

As the carriage made its way to the palace, the common folk looked at them with curiosity. The city was a bit surreal for Saerus...

Vol. 3 Chapter 86: Count Saerus Farrimond

There was a fairly large territory in the east of Wisteria’s capital city. Ruling it on behalf of the crown was a Count named Saerus Farrimond. He was a warrior, but gifted with a fine mind as well. He was a good leader to his territory, able to create level headed decisions, patient, and often wise.

In the past, he o...

Vol. 3 Chapter 85: Spar with Elson

I’m pumped! Another day of training! Our half-day session yesterday was quite productive. And now, Elson was going to let me try handling a dagger! Indeed, what an exciting day. It would just be a taste though.

But before that, I have to get the answer to my offer the other day. I didn’t broach the topic yesterday t...

Vol. 3 Chapter 84: The Search for Rats

Completely taken by surprise, Elson’s eyes widened. My servants likewise stared at me with dumbfounded expressions. However, Rogan in particular was the most concerning, he looked like he just witnessed something terrifying, or perhaps heartbreaking.

“I asked you what you think of becoming a subordinate of mine.” ...

Vol. 3 Chapter 83: Start of Sword Training

I tightened the laces of my boots, getting myself ready and make sure nothing fucks it up. For I will be going into physical practice. Swordplay!

I wore brown trousers, quite a stretchable fabric, so it didn’t restrain my movements. Then a gray shirt with a leather waistband. My hair was tied into a ponytail. Although...

Vol. 3 Chapter 82: Countermove

Days of silence and peace, on my side at least. I let others take care of matters now. The extension of bandit hunting was still underway, no sign of the elf. Unfortunate, but the main plan was to reduce or better wipe out the bad elements around the capital. A good side was that the people were praising the palace’s action...

Vol. 3 Chapter 81: The Parting

I heaved a long sigh once the priestess left the room. Can’t be too cruel, can’t be too kind. There’s nothing we can do. Better keep those adventurers watched. But do we even have resources remaining to do just that?

We don’t have agents to spare. Would have been better for me if they all just died when they fou...

Vol. 3 Chapter 80: The Lying Priestess

Local goddess here reporting for duty! A day had passed since I returned home to the palace. When I came back, every member of my family greeted me with wide smiles and bright, shining eyes. They were concerned at first about why I didn’t follow the schedule, but they didn’t panic thanks to the messenger we sent in advanc...

Side Project bad news.

There is some bad news. Remember the writing side project I mentioned? That collection of short stories. The editor I hired couldn't finish it because of some understandable reason on their side. 

But I can't help but feel disappointed. We were close to the finish line. And the time wasted for nothing, months, disa...

Vol. 3 Chapter 79: The Young Goddess's Blessing

I got tired. Who would have thought? I have been spewing mana and flying around for some time now, so of course I would be tired at the end of it, and feel a bit dizzy. Yeeaah, I have been holding off using mana, but that is a small price to pay for salvation.

No regrets! Don’t live your life full of regrets, people! ...

Vol. 3 Chapter 78: The Bird's Taste of Flight

It was time to go back home. Mizia looked at me with teary-eyes, holding my hand as if she didn’t want to let go.

“I still have a few more dresses for you to try out.”

Stop it! I have already tried more than a dozen!

I bet those few more dresses were just dresses she found locked up somewhere ...

Vol. 3 Chapter 77: Operation Rat's Tail

Shena of the Yveno household felt relief when she finally saw the familiar sight close to home. Going outside was a strenuous endeavor. She enjoyed the company of others, but she liked it more being at home, it was more peaceful that way. However, her mother would never allow that.

And thus, she had to bear playing poli...

Vol. 3 Chapter 76: A True Friend (Part 2)

The noble young ladies said their goodbyes as they headed for their carriages waiting in front of the mansion. They waved their hands with wide, friendly smiles before they stepped inside. The beautiful princess Estelia waved back at them with a longing smile.

From what Rogan gathered by observing her, she quite enjoyed...
