Fortunately, it seemed the girl also realized that Ezekiel had not spoken with bad intentions, as she soon calmed down. “I apologize.” Ezekiel sighed at his brother’s mediation and apologized as well. In the end, it was the girl’s reckless actions that had saved the two boys’ lives. The girl, Iris, squinted one eye before accepting Ezekiel’s apology. “Alright. I’m sorry for blaming Ez as…

You’ll Suffer Tonight, Won’t You? Soo-ah was dragged into the dining room by a rough-looking man. A spacious area with three walls made entirely of glass. The cityscape was visible at a glance through the windows. At the very center of the room, a dining table set for twelve had meals prepared for two. "Sir will be a little late. Please start your meal first." Soo-ah didn’t respond to the man’s words and simply took…

Étienne flinched and turned his head. A middle-aged woman with an awkward expression was approaching with hurried steps, carrying extra cloth in her arms. "Oh dear. I apologize, sirs. Our lady is quite… Here, please use these to dry yourselves." At this hour, when the sun had already set, their lady had brought back not one, but two unfamiliar young men, both closer to adulthood than boyhood. No servant would have anything good to say about…

The river had swelled, likely due to the rain. On the other side of the river, there was a small village, but the only stone bridge leading to it had been tragically destroyed. Ezekiel swallowed hard. “What do we do about this?” Étienne also spoke in a flustered voice. It was understandable. There was not much time left until the sun fully set. The knights might find them before then, but they had to prepare for the worst. Spending…

Étienne shouted. "Where did all the knights go?" But shouting would not suddenly make the missing knights appear. Instead of answering, Ezekiel wiped the rainwater streaming down his face. It was a storm. It had started inconspicuously. Light rain began to fall, and Felicia’s carriage lagged behind. Étienne, delighted, deliberately urged his horse forward, putting distance between himself and the Duke of Arbois'…

"Will you be alright?" The first to express concern when Ezekiel decided to go on summer vacation with Étienne was Court Count Robert. "What could be wrong? It’s not as if my own brother is going to harm me." Having just returned to his palace, Ezekiel replied lightly as he changed his clothes. Court Count Robert let out a sigh. "If Prince Étienne were that type of person, I wouldn’t even be worried. I would have stopped you…

It was purely by chance that the young princes ended up staying in the poor and insignificant Querluxia territory. "Ezekiel!" Five years ago. It was the season when summer wild roses bloomed in full across the imperial capital. At the time, it was fashionable among the nobility to decorate their mansion window grilles with the first-blooming white wild roses of early summer. The imperial palace was no exception. On that day, Étienne, sitting amidst the…

“But isn’t this the commander’s dinner?” Ezekiel shook his head. “I’m not very hungry. More than that, I’m not sure if the meals of the paladins will suit the tastes of the marquis’s party.” “Oh, what are you saying? We’re only grateful.” The maid eagerly accepted the bowl. Seeing this, Milena held out her own bowl as well. “That young lady must be starving too. Hey, Shanka. Give yours up too. Let…

Iris Querluxia and Shanka had been standing to the side the entire time. “Is your younger brother following his sister to her wedding? How sweet.” After the marquis’s tent was fully set up, he had asked for someone to check with his future wife whether she would like to share the same tent with him. Shanka found this utterly ridiculous. However, as an outsider, he couldn’t very well ask, “Aren’t you still unmarried?”—that would be…

Between Querluxia and the capital city of Renat lies the Lagoshri mountain range, which runs across the continent. Naturally, this meant they had to cross the mountains twice. Fortunately, the roads were well maintained. Though there were fairly large territories scattered along the way, there were times when they had to camp outdoors. However, no one expected that they would have to camp out on the very first day after leaving Querluxia. “Oh dear, our lord has a terribly bad…
