It was a sunny day in the Kingdom of Marigold. And Henry Marigold was lying under the tree as he enjoyed the spring breeze. At the time, his teacher's plan to help him build his kingdom was almost done.
Cindy's background was quite questionable. It wasn't clear whether she was a noble or not, and rumors said she was suddenly emerging from who knows where.
But her last name was also the name of an old household everyone had forgotten. She was from a ruined noble family.
There was a rumor that she was an old woman transforming into a young lady appearance. No one believed she was that young when she achieved the Archmage title at the age of 17.
Yes, he was napping. But even in his nap, he dreamt about her. He thought about her.
In the middle of this good weather, where everything was still perfect... Henry felt the touch of a woman's finger on his forehead.
He
"Isn't it weird...?"A male voice echoed in the black space. The void of infinite nothingness where he stood alone rippled within the water surface of the lake.Andrius closed his eyes."It's weird that I'm sure Anatoli is back..." he whispered. "...but I'm not sure about you, Ayja."The man looked up without opening his eyes, and from far, far away, a shower of lights fell down his body like rain. It illuminated his body, yet his face was full of sorrow.The shower of lights fell into the lake's surface, creating thousands of tiny ripples.And they fell down to the world below.***"Oh," Harriet, lying in the tower's bed, looking up to the skylight, exclaimed, "It's a meteor shower..."She got up and walked toward the window, carrying Damian with her to watch the shower of shooting stars.

What would be the best trait a main character of a novel has?Their wit? Their personality?No.Or their skills and hard work?No!What about overcoming their trauma? Their background story and motivation? Their character development?No, no! That was not the best!The main characters of a novel NEED none of those. The foremost thing they needed was...Luck.Plot armor!Cecilia KNEW that was the point of being the main character. Someone who had strong plot armor and tremendous luck on their side.But why did she think that way?The reason was simple. It was because that was how it should be.Cecilia thought that her life in her original world was very unlucky. She died young in both lives, even though she should b
TAP!Zaha set foot back in his home country. The Serpentes Kingdom.Serpentes was the biggest Kingdom in the entire Varanus Continent. The span of the Kingdom was almost as big as half of the Continent itself.After his brother ascended the throne, the Kingdom stopped expanding because of lots of internal issues and mainly because his brother killed their father to ascend the throne.After purging everything that dared to oppose him, until today, they lived in a kingdom where he was the King, and the people were his subjects. Everyone in the Kingdom worshipped him as a god.Yuha was the best definition of a dictator. He was the kind of leader who kept his subjects under his rule by force. And although he was not the most powerful King to ever rule over the Serpentes Kingdom, he was the most ruthless.The Dragon Order, which Yuha founded, was the most rigid, c
He felt it the moment he stepped into the hall. The doors opened smoothly without a single sound. The servants greeted him warmly, bowing as they passed him by.It felt so different from the last time he was here.Because before, no one dared to even greet him. No one dared to even see him and acknowledge him. So what change happened in this Kingdom when he left?It was weird. Something smelt too fishy.But why?Why did they recognize him as the Prince now? Why now, right before he was sentenced to death? Was it a form of last honor?This change didn't only confuse Zaha. Tang, who walked beside him, realized it too. But different from the others, he increasingly felt annoyed by it.He wondered why, grumbling in his head, thinking that this powerless Prince should not get the respect he got.But then, they finally got
"I understand now," Zaha closed his eyes. It wasn't like he didn't anticipate anything like this happened.It seemed like even though everything had changed, from whatever happened in Ezra's loops or what he saw through his visions, something like this would still happen. The way his brother descended to his own destruction.Sorcery...In the course of his life, his vision had changed and changed, But the earliest dream he had was the most terrifying he ever saw. The Wolf King's rampage and his journey to destroy the world were one of them.But what vision did he actually see that led to that?His brother, slowly but surely, got his hands on Sorcery. He learned the forbidden art through envoys from the corrupted Central Continent.At the same time, there were also different groups following the arrival of the corrupt. They were refugees who had survived the f
The Lycans were getting ready to move out. It was a huge army that took up all the space in the castle courtyard. The Lycans had brought their own supplies with them.They looked like a giant mass of fur, teeth, and claws as they gathered around the courtyard. They would be marching soon enough.Liam was standing next to Harriet when she turned towards him and said, "We have confirmed that His Highness is alive. But he's unreachable right now. Even Heinrich Hyacinth's raven could not reach him.""I'm sure he's fine, though," Liam said. He hoped so.It looked like overcast, but there wasn't much wind at the moment. There were no clouds overhead, just a dark grey sky. Snow piled up on the ground from last night and the day before. And it was cold. Colder than usual for this time of year.The snow hadn't stopped falling since yesterday afternoon. It had been coming down nonstop ever
"Is it confirmed?" Ezekiel approached Ezra, walking in large steps toward her.Ezra turned to him, nodding in confirmation. In her wrist was Heinrich's raven, perching calmly, telling her his message in a low voice.[We are sure that he is still alive. But we also confirmed something else.]Ezekiel and Ezra heard Heinrich repeating the information he told Liam and Harriet. The army of approximately 500 wyverns and the ones leading them."For fuck's sake, she's alive..." Ezra cursed. But then she closed her own mouth with her hand after realizing that she had just uttered a bad word.Unconsciously, the woman touched her lower belly. Her face paled.Ezekiel nodded after he heard the entire message. "I'll go talk to father now and discuss our next move with the commanders of knight orders.""Are you alright?" he asked her.
It was a very chilly night. The moonlight shone through the windows of the Port City building and illuminated the dark alleys. The wind blew through the glass windows and made a tapping noise.From far away, people could see a long blonde-haired man standing alone on the beach, facing the east in silence.Liam sighed as he gazed at the sky above him and felt the cool breeze blowing on his skin. It was quiet and peaceful... but he could hear the sound of the incoming storm accompanying the sizzling of waves.He closed his eyes and took deep breaths of cold, fishy air, concentrating."Are you okay, Milord?" he heard Harriet's familiar voice. "You seem to be quite troubled tonight.""What are you doing here?" Liam smiled as he turned around to find her standing there with her usual smile. She was wearing her thick fur coat and had her hair tied up and covered with her hood.&
