A few days after the palace doctor declared I was pregnant, we went to Green Lake as usual to practice my magic. I will meet Tuyul and Mbayul in the area near the lake water near the bushes, while Merri will spread a mat under the tree like a picnic, and the guards watch us from a distance so they don't exactly see what I'm doing.
And because the fire element in my manna is small, I gave up on developing my fire magic, following Tuyul and Mbayul's words.
“As expected of Mbayul. His quote hit my heart deeply – the sooner you apologize and give up, the better result you'll get. That's why I gave up fire magic and learned earth magic instead with satisfactory results. Hohoho!”
"Hey! From the start, I was the one who told you to give up! Why don't you say my name!" Tuyul stomped his feet in the air.
Anyway, it was the usual bickering arc between me and Tuyul. But suddenly, Merri who was sitting relaxed under the tree with a cheerful face, le
Fuschia relaxing herself while staring at the view outside the carriage. It had been a long time since she had left the Palace since her pregnancy. This was also the first time she had ridden the new carriage that His Majesty The King bestowed her to go outside the palace when previously she had only ridden it within the palace grounds. It turns out that the new carriage is live up to its high price as their ride is going smoothly. Even when passing through the gravel road that often made the carriage rattle loudly, her ride was steady and comfortable.'This is the power of money. Flex~' Fuschia hummed happily enjoying her ride."Your Highness,"Fuschia turned to Laura softly. "Do you have anything to say, Laura?"“You… look so happy,” Laura said out of the blue. Laura wasn't the type to say such words.Fuschia blinked, then furrowed her brow. "You are right. I'm really happy.""I see." Laura fiddle with her finger and gav
I am one of the royal soldiers of squad two under the leadership of the Crown Prince. It's been almost 5 years since I've been taking part in monster subjugation missions across the Kingdom's borders, risking my life against constantly evolving monsters.I'm not a skilled swordsman or strategist. Of course, I'm not a soldier with a high killing rate either. If I may say so, I am a lucky soldier. Compared to my comrades who are more adept at fighting, I survive in any precarious situation, like a cockroach.The universe always finds a way to keep me alive. Even I think that my existence is so thin that the universe sometimes forgets to take my life. I'm just like an extra character in a story.Anyway, this time we went to the border region in the Eastern part of the Kingdom. This time the Crown Prince was also in charge of this operation. He was a strong, wise, intelligent, and romantic person – of course, this side only goes to his beloved wife, Her Highne
It had been almost three days since he had last seen Fuschia. His longing had piled up as high as the sky. If longing is paid with money, maybe he can become a rich man in an instant. Then he will use his wealth to fulfill all of Fuschia's wishes. Too bad, his longing only resulted in a long tiring night.Even if he wanted to go to Fuschia on a non-stop overnight trip, he couldn't, because Fuschia had strictly forbidden him. Fuschia was worried that he would be tired, even though when he could see Fuschia even for a minute, his tiredness would disappear. 'Haa, would she ever understand my longing?'And there was only one thing he could do to meet Fuschia as soon as possible, which was to kill the monsters that charging at him with their full strength. 'Right. I have to finish this first.'He swung his sword through the wind and separated the monster's body parts, the rest were still writhing on the ground. Before the monster could regenerate, Dylan plunged his s
Regardless of that man's words, which don't come across as threats or ridicule, Dylan strikes him down to the ground. The fruit he picked earlier rolled on the ground. It was such a strong thrust that the man felt a pain in the back of his body. Dylan grimace, then shut the man's mouth with his hand, while his body locked the man's movements tightly.The man flapped his legs aimlessly as he felt the force Dylan gave him was ridiculously heavy. This is the first time his body is immobilized due to the power of humans, not monsters."Who sent you here?" Dylan asked coldly. His hands almost covered the man's face as he pressed firmly.Every now and then his eyeballs would roll to track other suspicious movements around him, but he didn't feel any other suspiciousness."Uhm... -mhm. ugh.. mhm ugh...” the man tried to shake his head, but Dylan just stared him down and kept his hand pressed the man's head.It wouldn't be good if any of the soldiers
The debutante ball was held in the Tulipe Palace, the largest ballroom on the imperial palace ground, which boasted its luxury, which is located not far from Istana Melati. Fuschia escorted by Hayden passed a labyrinth of splendid rooms, and already she could hear the muffled revelry of the party.“You did great by coming this far, my Fuschia. When we get back, we have to ride the carriage, okay?”“Yes, Your Highness. Thank you for complying with my will to walk."“My pleasure, my wife.” Hayden places his hand on Fuschia's waist tenderly, while Fuschia wriggles.‘It’s torture!’Another door guard was posted at the entrance of the special door which is on the right side of the hall. It was a special door for the core members of the Royal Family. Fuschia smile at the guard kindly, and as he spot Fuschia's smile, his eyes grew wider. The guard was unable to take off his eyes from Fuschia as he pulled ope
"Ahem." Fuschia cough then brushed Dylan's hand from massaging her calf. "You can stop now.""Why? Your legs are tired, right? That's why you came here. I can massage your feet a little longer,” Dylan said in a spoiled manner, which burst Fuschia's heart even more!It's funny how Fuschia was desperately trying to straighten her expression which she had a hard time doing so. Previously she had never been this conscious of her relationship with Dylan as she believes that they're merely friends with benefits. Friends with the same terrible fate.Maybe now Dylan is paying attention to her like a lover would do, but that's only because Dylan feels responsible for Fuschia, also because she is the only woman in his life.Later, when they managed to escape, Dylan would meet another woman who might be more beautiful and charming than her. 'Huh, maybe finding a woman who exceeds my beauty will be difficult, so maybe he will find another woman who fits his hea
“Count Lanchaster and his foster-daughter, Lady Sarah Lanchaster has arrived.” The guard announced loudly.The large and majestic door of the hall opened. It was almost magical as the two people glided inside the hall, and the chatter ceased. Even the music stopped, and everyone looked at them mesmerizing. Their gazes were mostly on the young lady with long red hair tied in a ponytail, who places her hand on the Count's arm and put on a shy smile.The lady is wearing a white dress."Who is that lady?"“Has Count Lanchaster recently adopted a daughter? Have you heard anything about this before?”“Woah, see that red necklace? The necklace has yet been put on the market by The Count's company, but the Lady has already been wearing it. Oh my~”Although Sarah's dress was simple white, one could not help but admire the quality of the work. From her dress to the jewelry gracing her body, everything was finely cur
In a dark and lonely corridor overlooking a garden with a small fountain outside the ballroom, a man was smoking his cigar. Even though he was far from the ballroom area, he could still hear the muffled revelry of the party.Clack. Clack. Then there was the sound of footsteps echoing down the deserted corridor where only there he was. The clacking voice is getting thicker as he feels that the sound was coming near him. But he didn't bother to turn around as he was already familiar with that step sound.clack.Someone was standing behind him. The man blew smoke from his cigar into the air. "You're here?""...Father,"The man was Count Lanchaster, while the owner of the footsteps was Laura, his only daughter. Oops, now she is no longer his only daughter as she got a sister tonight.“What have you done, Father? What does all this mean?”"You... are you allowed to leave your post as the Crown Princess' lady-in-waiting?"
