From the first time Hayden had introduced him to his slaves, Raymon had been in charge of watching over the slave. Whether when he had to be released from the dungeon to be sent to exterminate monsters, or when he had to confirm that the slave returned to the palace thanks to Hayden's magical green ring, Raymon was the one who always gave the final report on the slave's whereabouts.
Although Hayden stationed two guards at the entrance of the dungeon, only Raymon was allowed to explore the prison inside and meet the slave in person. It could be said that after Hayden, the people he met the most were the slave, not his family.
“One may call it an obsession with the way he constantly asked about the slave.” Raymon let out a weary sigh.
His body felt exhausted as he had just arrived at the palace after leading the subjugation army in place of Hayden, who was 'laying sick' due to stress. And instead of being given a break, Hayden told him to look at the c
Almost a week on, Mr. Andre couldn't touch his design book at all. He has not received orders from customers who have come to his boutique for a month. His mind was in a mess with a lot of things bothering him. So how can he draw a beautiful dress when his brain doesn't tell his hands to move?His wife, who is heavily pregnant, often persuades him to accompany her for walks, rather than staying at home doing nothing. But that didn't calm him down either. The only thing that could calm his heart was to meet the Crown Princess, Fuschia.But from the latest news he heard, Fuschia had been removed from her position as the Crown Princess and had also been locked up in a dungeon inside the palace. The news that discouraged him even more, was that the court had sentenced Fuschia to death.Several times he visited the Lanchaster residence to meet Laura who is said to have testified against the Crown Princess at trial. He wanted to ask why Laura did that to the Crown Pri
Even when I went back in time, I never knew what had happened to the Mountravven family after I left. Either they were exiled like me, or maybe the royal family annihilated my entire family, or their position was revoked, I don't know. But what is clear, The Duke will not stay silent if his power is usurped by those he deems lowly.As I have often said, my father was a very arrogant person. It is not impossible if he even revolts against the royal family with the soldiers he has gathered for years, to seize the power of the royal family. This tendency of him makes him have many enemies from the pro party of the royal family, but also gather many allies with similar thoughts.When I asked Dylan, he also didn't know the news regarding my family in the past life because it wasn't on his to-do list. As you may know, the thing Dylan did at that time was to kill Hayden. But still failed to kill the man, then thrown back in time like me.It is difficult to predict what
From the pieces of information that Dylan gave when he visited here, the residents of the capital have great sympathy for Hayden. They hailed Hayden, the Crown Prince, as a responsible and generous man. Even though he was hit by a disaster in the form of his wife's betrayal, he still carried out his duties as a knight leader who protected the land of Drachentia from monsters.The support from the nobility is no less overwhelming. Many reached out to help overthrow the position of Duke Mountravven who was considered to overshadow the complete power of the royal family.Most importantly, the current vacancy of the position of the Crown Princess made the noble families blind to opportunities. Especially for families who have daughters of marriageable age. Or even if they don't have a direct descendant daughter, they adopt the daughter of a close relative to be proposed as the new Crown Princess candidate.I heard from Dylan that Her Majesty the Queen is busy holdin
I glared at Raymon who at that time was just standing behind Hayden carrying a big torch. I didn't catch any expression of sympathy on his face, and it was annoying! Then I charge at him with a powerful running to create a deafening sound of metal bars clashing.“Some like like him could kill me in a place like that! And monsters too! Argh! How could you throw me in that place?!”"I'll protect you there. I will visit you often, also send you all the things you want be it a dress, jewelry, dessert, or anything else. So please, be calm and do nothing until I can persuade them.”I calmed down again. "...Are you sure?""Yeah."“Are you still going to visit me at that place? You know I'd go crazy if I didn't see you, Your Highness. I love you so much." I plead."Yeah, I know... I know. I love you too.""Then what should I do now?""You just wait patiently for the news in this place."'Huh? So you inten
"Alright milady, what can I help you with?"“First, make a fireball. Then... shape them as your proud firefly troop.”I couldn't be more proud of Merri whose magical abilities are increasing. Now, she can modify her fire magic in various forms, even without the help of Tuyul and Mbayul.Oh, speaking of Tuyul and Mbayul, we haven't communicated with each other even once since Pasha's birth. If you do the math, it's been almost six months, and we still haven't heard from them.I was quite worried about how they were doing that Merri and I visited the forest near the temple. But since neither of us ever visited the fairy forest that the two fairies mentioned before, we don't know where the exact place is.But as they often tell me: no news is good news, so I just have to patiently wait for our reunion. They said they liked long sleeps, sort of hibernating like bears, so they said not to worry about it. Come to think of it, they too had sle
Hi, this is Merri.I have no one left in this world, except for Milady. But now, I have one more person I want to give my whole soul to, and that is milady's son, Pasha. My wish came true with the birth of Pasha as I always hoped to meet milady's descendants. Ugh, I want to cry again when I remember the moment of his birth. Anyways,Milady always said that her son was adorable and smart, but I had other thoughts.Sure, Pasha is an adorable baby, but his adorable side is made-up when he's with me. Often I found it felt like he was forced to act like a normal baby. I've seen him roll his eyes when he heard that a**hole, I mean Hayden, talking to milady. Not only that, I also often see him changing his expression like an adult who hides his feelings through expressions."My prince, just now... you...?"When he noticed that I caught the change in his expression that was uncharacteristic for a baby, he smirked at me instead. Literally smirking at me! Li
Laura knelt before the iron bars. The bottom of her beige dress spread across the dirty floor."Lady Laura!" cried Merri."...Laura."Although I could smell the fragrance of the perfume she was wearing, the fragrance was soon replaced by a strong sour smell. And because I switched off my magic, the bad smell pierced the nose even more.Merri was still begging Laura not to kneel in this place. Merri's hand reached out of the prison through the narrow gap of the iron bars. She tried to reach Laura's hand which was tightly clenched above her thigh."Come on, get up please, Lady Laura."While Merry was frantically trying to make Laura move, Laura kept her gaze on me instead. I saw her gaze is so firm and sure. Then after a long silence, she opened her mouth again.“Your Highness, please...”I let out a short breath. “First, I am no longer a Crown Princess. And second, I won't do it."Laura had a better life
Hayden couldn't understand whether his heart was running rashly, as well as the cold sweat that was running down the nape of his neck at this moment was caused by his body's condition, or because of Fuschia.When he looked at the clock on the wall, it was only less than an hour before Fuschia would be executed. He even ignored the words of the palace doctor to rest his body. He also did not notice the clothes he was wearing when he came out of the palace. With makeshift clothes that have not been worn neatly like a Crown Prince, he rides a horse that has been provided in front of his residence.Raymon and several other bodyguards also followed Hayden's departure. With great speed, Hayden passed through the palace gates."Yep!" Hayden whipped his horse to make it run faster, even though his horse was known to be the fastest horse in the kingdom.“Your Highness! Please be careful! ...Your Highness?” Raymon kept calling him, but Hayden didn't hee
Tuyul is nowhere to be found.No matter how hard Mbayul and I searched for him, we could only conclude that Tuyul had left us. It's hard to accept that reality, especially when we don't say goodbye to each other.Mbayul and the other wandering fairies are still with us. They worked for me as a royal CCTV. They were the right creatures for the job because few could see them, even though many wizards had appeared now.Then, when Pasha was three years old, I learned Tuyul's last story."Mom, do you still remember Uncle Tuyul?"One night, Pasha asked about it.Pasha has excellent verbal skills at an early age, and he can already form complex sentences well, making it easier for us to converse. He also remembered some things about his childhood, when he was one year old.He even remembered the house in the middle of the forest that we once lived in in the Haddad Kingdom, and he also remembered our battle with the monsters. Therefore, it is not surprising that later those memories returned
It had not been six months since Dylan had served as the new king of Drachentia Kingdom, and he already held the title of 'Drachentia's golden wolf.' In that short time, he was feared by the kingdoms around Drachentia. Mainly because of his achievements in eradicating all the monsters and the remaining alchemist in Drachentia.Not only that, but he also paralyzed the illegal trade that occurred in Drachentia's sea. Without mercy. And it turns out that his actions have spread to shake the economic stability of other kingdoms in the vicinity, which have outsmarted Drachentia in terms of trade at sea.Then today was a big meeting with the diplomacy of the allied kingdoms, who were present for fear that Dylan would prey on their kingdom. As many people know that Drachentia is an archipelago kingdom, I think they are afraid that their kingdom will become one of Dylan's new islands.'But he's not that ruthless tho.' I smiled proudly at Dylan sitting beside me with a sinister expression.As
My second marriage ceremony.As Dylan requested, before the king's coronation ceremony, we had a wedding ceremony.Of course, a lot needs to be prepared for a royal family wedding, but since we want it to be done as soon as possible, the preparations are quite simple. After all, we want to be crowned husband and wife soon. So we don't think much about banquets and so on.I'm wearing a white wedding dress that looks as divine as the diamond sprinkles on top of it. When the sun's rays fall on me, my dress will twinkle.Why can there be such a beautiful wedding dress ready in such a short time? The answer is because of the enthusiasm of Laura and Mr. Andre, who had prepared the dress long ago, even when they didn't know when I could wear it. Likewise, with Dylan's wedding tuxedo.“Milady-oops, your majesty, you look so beautiful. You are like a goddess!”"Isn't she more like an angel because of her white dress?""Well, our lady can do both. Hohohoho~” Merri and the others had fun dressin
The day of Crown Prince Hayden's trial has finally arrived. The sky was a dull gray, and people flocked to the High Court to witness the historic trial in an uneasy mood. Their minds were in turmoil.Dylan and I sat on the witness stand. I could feel all eyes on us. I heard the whispers of the people behind us as they were the seats of the nobles."I'm here. Don't be nervous." Dylan whispered. Pulling up the nervousness I didn't realize ate up my consciousness.Even though I heard that Madame Luxor and Laura were trying to get a lot of news written in the newspapers in our favor, that doesn't mean everyone would necessarily believe all that. Especially the nobles who might be aiming for royal power through the royal family.More so when they heard their next king was a formerly enslaved person and a victim of alchemist experiments—not forgetting that I would also be their queen."Phew."The supreme judges entered the courtroom. I know one of the high judges who sit in the highest seat
After that great battle, I slept like the dead for two days. I pushed myself too much, so that's how it turned out.Meanwhile, Laura and Madame Luxor mobilized a lot of news media in the form of newspapers to write down everything that had happened overnight—starting from the reason for the rebellion led by the Luxor Family with the help of the Mountravven Family troops to my surprising appearance.Madame Luxor quickly prepared everything related to the news as she owned information guilds. So she has planted several reporters on the scene to capture everything that happened since the beginning of the battle.And as professional reporters they are, reporters get a lot of 'astonishing' pictures, which are then pasted in their newspaper headlines.From the picture of Hayden leading the monster army, then the picture of me using water magic, and the picture of the dragon in the sky that blessed Dylan and me. Of course, the last picture was the one that seemed the most implausible, except
I don't know what just happened. What I do know is that Dylan suddenly had Hayden's sword in his hand, and from that sword came a superpower(?) of a giant rolling circle that sliced through the monsters with a single numbness. Then because of that power, Dylan's energy seemed to be sucked in and made him fall limply into my arms.I panicked because I thought Dylan was about to die, but he was only limp for a moment. Because after that, we and some of the 'healthy' soldiers explored the temple.Of course, at the time, I also didn't know why people looked at us with amazement as they said that we received blessings from the dragon that stroked our heads with its feet.I don't even know anything about the dragon in the sky. But I think it might be Lord Drachen.Anyway, I met someone I almost forgot on the way to the temple."I'LL KILL YOU!" Sarah was about to jump at me with a vengeance, but her body was already being held back by the soldiers who followed us."It's all over, Sarah," I
"Where are you going, sir bastard?"Without hesitation, Merri engulfed Raymon's body with her smoldering blue flames.“AAAAAAHHHHH!” Raymon writhed in pain while screaming hysterically; then, his body was kicked by the grande monster.Merri smirked as she looked down at Raymon, who was flipping like a dying fish.Merri thought, 'Look, how easy it is to crush that bastard. If I were stronger since long ago, then Milady and my life wouldn't be this messed up.'"Merri?! What are you doing here?" Fuschia approached Merri, looking happy at the top of a tree.“Milady! I did it! I burn that bastard!”“Gre- great job, girl. But don't push yourself as you're still recovering, Merri."“Of course! Hahahaha, this is fun. What about you, milady? Uh? Your head is bleeding!” Merri almost jumped from her position to get closer to the flying Fuschia.That made Fuschia flustered. But then Fuschia calmed Merri down. “Calm down. I already drank that potion.”"Ah! The magic medicine, of course!”Fuschia s
Fuschia stared at the man in front of Madame Luxor warily. "Commander Hugh?"She recognized the man before as The Knight Commander of Drachentia, Hugh Connor of the Count Connor Family.Dylan frowned wryly then spoke in a low voice, "I should have made sure you died in my hands."The knight commander Hugh bowed his head as he faced Fuschia. He didn't raise his head as he spoke.“I… had time to come to the Crestine Hall. There I met Lady Laura and the survivors. Then I… learned the truth from her. So please, allow me to atone for my sin of stupidity, Your Highness.”Fuschia knew Hugh Connor as a knight loyal to the kingdom. His loyalty is shown by a devotion to the leader. He is known as the 'hunting dog' of the late king who has bitten many nobles or rebels who threaten the power of the late king.Like Hayden and Raymon, he was trained by the late king and the late general commander in swordsmanship. That was why the sword styles of the three were almost the same. So he has a good rel
“FUCHIA!”It was Dylan's voice. He emerged from behind the soldiers."Dylan!" Fuschia immediately raised her legs to shorten the distance between the two.The two of them ran at each other with their arms wide open.Amid a battle between monsters and humans that seemed like it would never end, Dylan and Fuschia hugged each other tightly.The whirlwind of their minds and the erratic beating of their heart were relieved by the familiar scent they breathed in on each other. The tight hug they shared at that time seemed to convey all the tiredness in their hearts and minds.Then, along with a brief kiss they shared, each of them killed the charging monster. Fuschia separates the head of the monster charging at Dylan with her ice saw, while Dylan rips the neck of the monster charging at Fuschia with his sword.Never before seen a romantic and horror moment happen in one frame. So many soldiers thought so and accidentally witnessed the scene.“What's wrong with your sword? Why are they so d
