AKFOD Chapter 22
| Chapter 22. Dawn of a New Era An era had come to an end. The Duchy of Ivanov, located in the northern region of the Benia Continent. It was a small yet solid nation ruled and reigned over by the House of Ivanov as kings. However, under Duke Sergey Ivanov, the duchy rapidly declined and fell into ruin. At the end of that road stood a tyrant who regarded all those not of noble blood as less than pigs and dogs. Oppressing everyone while indulging alone in luxury and pleasure, Duke Sergey Ivanov…-

AKFOD Chapter 21
| Chapter 21. Akrovablenny (Окровавленный) The man stood amidst the roaring flames, his body covered in soot and ash, his crimson eyes burning more fiercely than the fire surrounding him. “Ah… Alexei… it’s you…” Natasha’s blurred gaze trembled with disbelief. Was this a dream? Had she already died and ascended to heaven? If so, did that mean… he was dead too? Tears streamed down her cheeks. “I’m sorry. I wished for you to be alive, but… to meet like this in…-

AKFOD Chapter 20
| Chapter 20. Do You Remember Me, My Lady? The torches multiplied, growing into a massive ring of fire that surrounded Ivanov Castle. “Guards! Where are the guards?” Natasha shouted desperately, only to remember—too late—that she had dismissed the guards herself. She wanted no one to know of the tragedy that was to unfold in Sergey’s chambers tonight. “I have to get to Sophia!” She flung open the door and bolted down the corridor. “The Knulu tribe is attacking! They’re…-

AKFOD Chapter 2
| Chapter 2: The First Meeting “Wow! Is that the pillar of the arena? It looks impressive even from here.” “Who did you bet on this time? I’m going all in on Alexei again.” “You fool. This time it’s a 3-on-1 match. Isn’t it a bit risky to bet everything? By the way, that slave, he’ll be making a fortune. Apparently, a tenth of the prize money goes to the slave since he’s ownerless.” “A tenth? A slave making money?” The hot and charged atmosphere of the…-

AKFOD Chapter 19
| Chapter 19. The End of the World Bang! Bang! Natasha, seated before her vanity and idly staring at her jewelry box, flinched at the sudden knock on her door. Startled, she quickly placed the sapphire earring back into the box and shut the lid. “Natasha, you’re as beautiful as ever.” Came Sergey’s voice as he flung the door open before she could even ask who it was. Predictably, it was him. Usually, he would barge in without so much as a knock, often kicking the door open in his brash…-

AKFOD Chapter 18
| Chapter 18. The Secret Passage “I’ve finally found it!” After several sleepless nights in the Ivanov royal archives, Natasha unearthed an ancient map of the castle. Her trembling fingers traced over the map, and she discovered a secret passage leading to the solitary cell in the underground prison. Clasping her hands together, she offered a prayer of thanks to the goddess Hella. Though it might seem blasphemous, Natasha didn’t truly believe in the goddess’s blessings. If such divine…-

AKFOD Chapter 17
| Chapter 17: Spare Him! Spare Him! "Wow!" The crowd stomped their feet in excitement, their cheers fueling the Albinin lion’s frenzy. Starved for days to enhance its aggression, the lion roared ferociously, prowling toward Alexei. Armed only with a spear and a round shield, Alexei kept his distance, watching the beast’s movements carefully. Then the lion charged, a blur of muscle and fury. Alexei hurled his spear, but the lion moved faster than expected, and the weapon grazed its side,…-

AKFOD Chapter 16
| Chapter 16: Hunting the Beast "An Albinin lion?" Alexei’s brow furrowed deeply. It can’t be… or could it? He had heard stories from the Luman Empire, the birthplace of gladiatorial combat, where arenas pushed the limits of spectacle by introducing beast hunts. It wasn’t enough for gladiators to battle each other—they faced ferocious beasts. The Duchy of Ivanov, far removed from the resources of the Luman Empire, had never entertained such extravagance. Procuring a so-called beast…-

AKFOD Chapter 15
| Chapter 15: The Gladiator of Atonement A few days later. "Alexei Petrov, the shameless criminal who dared lay his hands on Lady Ivanov’s belongings, hear your sentence! The punishment shall be decreed by Lady Ivanov herself, and you will comply with her will." The clerk’s voice rang out as Alexei, kneeling before the platform where Sergei and Natasha sat, slowly raised his head. Despite days of starvation and confinement in the underground prison, his body was as imposing as ever, his muscles…-

AKFOD Chapter 14
| Chapter 14: A Bedroom Slave "A… bedroom slave?" The words from Sergei’s lips were so unexpected that Natasha’s mind went blank. "You may not know, but it seems that wretched slave has feelings for you…" Sergei swayed toward Natasha, waving the wine bottle in his hand. "If he becomes your bedroom slave, it would be an honor for him." He reached out, twirling a strand of Natasha’s hair between his fingers as he spoke in a low voice. "Even if it’s only for one night." "How…-
