DMEC | Chapter 16
"Roasting potatoes... Is climbing trees also forbidden?" Hearing this, everyone around couldn't help but laugh. Eliza shrugged lightly, gathered the pus he had extracted, and stored it separately, then applied a generous amount of ointment to Lute's sole. With the pus and blood squeezed out, the inflammation that was about to spread would subside, and there would be no more swelling up to the ankle. "If you go out on a rainy day with inflammation this severe, it's like signing your own death…-

DMEC | Chapter 15
Eliza’s eyes widened in surprise. A carriage adorned with the white rose of the Ragnus family… The emperor had summoned him. Eliza wasn’t directly responsible for the emperor’s care; he was more like a merchant—someone who tended to the people working in the palace and the nobles, while also running a private clinic outside. Even among doctors, there are different levels. So why me? Are they trying to promote me? But if I get promoted… I won’t be able to run my profitable…-

DMEC | Chapter 14
Did they leave, since I can’t hear any more noise? Just as Lute’s trembling body began to calm down and he started to crawl out from the floor, there was a loud bang! “Ah!” Lute’s heart sank at the sound of the door being pounded. Who could it be? There’s no one who would come to this palace! Thanks to Snow’s tears, his left foot had healed, allowing him to stand on it. Just as he was about to grab the cane he used when in pain, there was another loud bang! The sound of something…-

DMEC | Chapter 13
"Ouch..." The rain-soaked body was less of a concern than the scratches and cuts that had begun to fester. Lute could feel something was wrong—the swelling creeping up his ankle wasn’t normal. He should have listened when Melik and Anna warned him never to go near the lake. He picked up the disinfectant Anna had left behind. There wasn’t much left. He had used most of it on the soles of his feet, between his toes, the tops of his feet, and around his ankles. At first, he used it liberally.…-

DMEC | Chapter 12
"No, that's not the reason... That wasn't the reason, I... The reason I did that was..." The emperor recalled Lute, who had shed diamond-like tears while looking back at him today. A pain like needles pricking his chest. He couldn't breathe, so he closed his mouth and covered it with his hand. Pretending to be calm and strong worked on the chamberlain. He took deep breaths, eyes wide open as if in serious contemplation, when the chamberlain quietly asked. "Is there another reason you're not…-

DMEC | Chapter 11
"No, Your Majesty! Your face!" The emperor, having just returned to his bedroom from the Emperor’s Forest, was a complete mess. His once-proud golden hair was matted with dirt and blood, and though his nose remained intact, the dried blood beneath it made it clear he had bled heavily. His uniform—an ornate piece that had taken months to craft—was not only stained with blood, dirt, and dust, but had also been torn by something sharp, leaving the expensive fabric half-shredded. "Your…-

DMEC | Chapter 10
Why? Because he was a fairy. Humans were scary. With this baseless assumption firmly in mind, Joel set Lute down on the ground and bent his knees halfway. Yet, he never let go of him. His hand lightly brushed against Lute’s thin back. When Lute flinched and pushed Joel away with both hands, shaking his head, Joel—due to their close proximity—leaned in and whispered into his ear. “Where did you leave your wings?” Ah, this is strange. The sensation… Lute felt an odd tingling in…-

DMEC | Chapter 9
After unexpectedly encountering Emperor Joel for the first time in nine years and eleven months since their marriage, Lute was bedridden for two days. The fever was so severe that he couldn’t even get out of bed, let alone chew or swallow anything. Mentally shaken, he refused to eat, prompting Anna to make a bold decision. She gathered the potatoes they had harvested with Melik and left the palace. The potatoes Lute had lovingly grown had flourished, so she promised to sell them at the market outside…-

DMEC | Chapter 8
Unaware of it himself, the Emperor did not wish to reveal that he was Joel Ragnus. Even without a heart, there was a faint, unfamiliar pounding sensation within him. Not having a heart did not mean he had lost all human emotions. The ones he had learned in the past remained, allowing him to exist among people without issue. However, guilt barely registered, and emotions he had never personally experienced remained beyond his understanding. As befitted an Emperor, he made decisions based on reason…-

DMEC | Chapter 7
Tears slipped from the wrinkled corners of Melik’s eyes. He remembered too. Joel, who had once adored Lute so earnestly—even when he was dressed as a girl. How much must he have cherished him to say, “Grow up quickly and marry me, Prince.” That kind of love could not have simply vanished. That was why, when Lute arrived in disguise, a crime that should have warranted death had only resulted in confinement. If there had been no lingering affection, Synthsis would have been…-
