NLS Ch16
The magic wasn't a spell that directly killed, but Ashin cleared the path with it so that Leotar's army could kill with ease. In doing so, she protected the continent's water source and saved the lives that depended on it. "Then why did you come?" At the trembling voice, Jimunda clicked her tongue and turned her head away. "Why did you come!" Ashin squeezed her eyes shut and shouted, scattering the tears that had welled up into the air. Instead of Jimunda, who remained silent,…-

The envoys who had been flocking in even before the wedding ceremony were endless, still passing through the main gate of the Imperial Palace. The outside of the window was noisy. The sound of a horn announcing someone's arrival seemed to have rung dozens of times. Moreover, so many people had gathered that the murmur of the crowd reached Ashin beyond the window. Ashin glanced out the window between the maids clinging to her, and soon her face turned pale. "Ahem, you must stay…-

NLS Ch14
Ashin’s mother, Jimunda, wordlessly turned back to examine the patient. Ashin stood stiffly behind her, staring at Jimunda’s hair, which was now nearly white. She hesitated, wondering what to say, then uttered an awkward first word. “You’ve come.” Jimunda replied as she wrapped a bandage around the patient. “It’s been ten years, and you don’t seem very happy to see me.” “No, I am happy.” Without so much as a smile for Ashin, Jimunda gave the patient an…-

“Uh, over there.” The detached palace greenhouse wasn't far. In the Empire, where the climate was mild year-round with only dry and rainy seasons, a greenhouse signified the owner's wealth. Vize probably even considered that perception when she bestowed this detached palace. Even so, Ashin used it for the extremely practical purpose of cultivating medicinal herbs. The interior of the greenhouse was as extravagant as a space meant to flaunt wealth. Sunlight filtering through the stained-glass…-

People bustled about before her eyes. Vize and they were serious, but Ashin felt detached from reality. Wasn't it so? It was a ridiculous wedding. Neither side's parents were attending, the parties involved had no interest in the marriage, and the only person who was actually excited was Vize, just one person on the entire continent. Even the people of the Imperial City were busy muttering about whether this was the right thing to do. Moreover, since they wouldn't even live together for three…-

Even knowing that things would ultimately go Leotar's way, Ashin still tried to find fault with it. "What exactly is his situation?" "I don't know the details myself. But I do know that the Lord of Ailem has a terrible inferiority complex towards his son. I've heard the Lord has a rather peculiar temperament." "Shouldn't he be happy if his heir is doing well?" "I find it strange too. But if there's one emotion I understand least in this world, it's inferiority, so it's hard for me to…-

Someone called out Ashin's name loudly from nearby. "Ashin!" A woman shorter than Ashin pushed through the soldiers and stood before her. "Ashin!" "Liyora." Liyora, panting, examined Ashin's body from head to toe. "Are you crazy? That range just now… you could have died!" Judging by her reaction, it seemed Ashin neglecting her own well-being wasn't a rare occurrence. "Uh, uh, I'm, I'm okay." The voice she deliberately strengthened trembled miserably. The body leaning on him…-

Prologue After the long war ended, the Emperor sat on her throne, languidly lost in thought. She needed to proclaim a symbol of peace. Not some neglected statue, but something that could unite the entire continent… Preferably a living, breathing symbol of peace. The Emperor stroked the cat in her arms, racking her brain. "What would be good…." Purr. "Hmm?" The cat, which had been sleeping peacefully in her arms, suddenly shuddered and made a strange noise. Purr-purr-purrrrr.…-

- The genius sorcerer of the Riyat Empire, Ashin Judin. After a long war, she was casually enjoying a nap when the emperor issued an order. “Now that the war is over, you have nothing else to do. Get married.” The other person was someone Ashin knew well. Commander-in-Chief, Leotar Van Mur, whom she had clashed with on even the tiniest things during the war.…
