"Ugh." Raymon's moan of pain caught in his throat.As much as he threw attacks at Dylan underhanded, he couldn't counter Dylan's attacks even once. His sharply sharpened sword was unable to break through Dylan's strong defense. Oh, how Raymon wanted to leave scratches on Dylan's body just like how Dylan left some scratches on his noble body.Thus, the only thing he could do in his current situation was to defend himself.'Shit! Shit!'Raymon has pushed back into an area far away from where Sarah was, until now even he couldn't hear Sarah's fighting sounds. But then again, he couldn't do anything to help Sarah while he was in Dylan's game. And the more Dylan smacked him into the shady forest, the more Raymon realized he was going to lose his life.'How is this bastard still alive? F*ck it! I should have killed him since he made it back intact from his first subjugation regardless of what Hayden says! I shouldn't let him stay alive with those strengths!' Raymon frowned wryly.Raymon was
"Haha... ha?" My awkward laugh didn't stop Merri from being surprised.Merri remained in her shocked position with her eyes and mouth wide open. After she lets out a big gasp, Merri is stunned. A few seconds had passed, but she still held that position like someone who had been hit by 'freeze' magic. Maybe this ridiculous act was an act of protest to me for just telling her this big news only now. Very childish indeed, but very Merri-like. I understand Merri's adorable action.But still, how long was she going to pretend to be frozen like that? I didn't even catch the slightest movement of her breath."Oh please, Merri, breath," I said still with a shy smile.I'm sure Merri was very surprised by what I just confessed. I was also surprised when I realized this new condition of mine a week ago. It never crossed my mind that I would conceive another soul in this world. This is a godsend! But I can't lie to myself that I'm scared.Merri took a deep breath, then took my hand."Are you sure
That day, the sun had not yet fully departed. The rest of the heat emitted during the day still clings to my skin in the form of sweat that makes my body feel sticky. Wow, I want to hurry to take a bath with Pasha using my homemade soap.I looked at the area outside the window that looked beautiful even though it was exposed to the hot sun. The sun's light also hasn't completely faded except, for the carriage I'm riding on that begins to enter the forest area. And because our house is located in it with many towering trees around, the area is already quite dark. It's like entering into a different world.“After this, we will take a fresh bath with your little sibling, Pasha. Isn't this fun?"“Bbuu-haa.” Pasha giggled.Pasha's face as he laughed cheerfully reminded me of Dylan. The shape of his mouth and the golden eyes that gleamed when he laughed, was a copy of Dylan. Doesn't throw away any of Dylan's best features."I miss him.""Pa-ppa?""Mhm. You must have missed him too, right?”
As the rain of arrows stopped, the soldiers exchanged glances at each other. There was a feeling of relief mixed with guilt that clouded their conscience. They didn't talk about it with each other, especially in such a volatile situation, but they believed they shared the same feelings.Along with their heart beating rashly, they looked up at the hill where their two senior knights were running towards the enemy. And seeing that there were no more arrows shot at them told them that Dylan and Faris managed to stop the enemy's actions despite being outnumbered.Their respect grew higher for Dylan and Faris. As high as their feelings of guilt and cowardice.'Sir Dylan, Sir Faris…' A soldier clenched his fists tightly.“Sir, I will catch up with Sir Dylan and Sir Faris. Please continue your journey safely to the palace.” Said a young soldier with slanted eyes. He looked determined despite the fear that caught in his eyes.The other soldiers gave understanding looks.A soldier who looked a
“Who wouldn't be surprised he managed to stay alive without serious external injuries, while Sir Faris was paralyzed? I guess I've lived too long to witness these miracle."Maftah placed one sheet of paper into another stack of documents on her desk. He was still both amazed and surprised by the reports he received regarding the incident the other day. From the reports of the surviving soldiers, Dylan and Faris managed to catch the archers even though they were outnumbered. And thanks to the two of them, the other soldiers were able to return to the palace safely to make reports.But Dylan and Faris couldn't avoid their destiny against the enemy who seemed to be the leader of the raid.“How can a human survive in an intact body after falling from such a height? They wrote the correct report, about the ravine where Dylan fell, right?" Maftah looked at Tarek.“That's right, Your Majesty. I confirmed it myself when I followed the special forces you ordered to search for Lord Dylan's body
After I tucked in Pasha for the night, I went into Dylan's room. I left everything as it was when Dylan left that day, about a month ago. I never tire of visiting Dylan's room even though it's empty. Dylan doesn't have a lot of stuff. There were no decorations on wall hangings, no stationery on his desk, no sword by his bed, no jewelry, nothing to indicate that Dylan had lived here.He doesn't have a habit of drinking tea so he doesn't have his own cup. He also doesn't have a favorite food or drink that makes me think of him whenever I see that food or drink. He has no favorite shoes or favorite clothes.Or again, I don't know anything about him?If humans usually leave behind something when they're gone, Dylan left nothing of such. I think he always carries all his valuable things with him everywhere. Maybe, like the dagger I gave him, also the little pouch I made. He sure to take it everywhere, hmm, adorable.'Once I can bring Dylan home, I'll fill his room with stuff. I have to sta
Knock. Knock. Knock.The sound of a hurried knock on the door stopped all movement. Maryah pulled her body back and let out a sigh. If it wasn't for the knock on the door, maybe Maryah had managed to steal a peck on Dylan's lips which looked unguarded.“Your Highness, I deliver a message from His Majesty.” Said someone behind the door.'Haaah, what a shame.' Maryah thought regretting her delayed action as she gave Dylan an awkward smile.In front of her, Dylan did not take his eyes off Maryah's eyes."Wait," Maryah replied.Maryah smacked her lips in regret. She can't believe she misses the chance! Even though it was her chance to win Dylan's heart as he suffer amnesia. According to several close maids, skinship is a powerful way to attract the hearts of the opposite sex, be it women or men. No wonder many of the ladies she met at the party straightforwardly showed her attraction to gentlemen by being physically close. Maryah also wants to do the same thing, especially since she has a
Dylan smacked his neck as he let out an annoyed sigh. His action made the maids gasp in surprise. To them, Dylan who has a large body is very intimidating. Coupled with its title as the King's golden sword that is able to eradicate any enemy. And who managed to survive after falling into the ravine.No wonder the servants in the room always looked tensed up even with the slightest movement from Dylan.“Hey, if I insist, will you guys get in big trouble?” Dylan asked other servants.In unison, the servants nodded."Okay then, I'm not going out. But instead, you guys get out of this room because I wanted to be alone.” Dylan shot a sharp glare at the servant in front of him."W-why sir? We won't do anything disturbing so you won't notice we're here. So don't kick us out, please."Seeing the faces of the servants turning paler, Dylan felt like his conscience was being scratched. Dylan clicked his tongue.“Heh, is the princess such a scary person that all of you are scared?”"No. Of course
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
