IYVP CHAPTER 9
9. “Yes? I just…” “I’m asking if you’ll refuse this political marriage if you don’t get the answer you want.” His words rang out like a threat. The answer was already decided. Whether she agreed or not, the situation was already in motion. It was a warning: know your place. Know the arrogance of prey daring to scrutinize its predator just before being devoured. “No, I… I didn’t mean it like that.” Azniel instinctively curled her fingers into a fist,…-

IYVP CHAPTER 8
8. No, no—that wasn’t right. Even a moment’s rest would cause Azniel to start replaying the absurd things that had happened to her, over and over. As if trying to shake off those thoughts, she forcefully shook her head and turned to greet the next pilgrim. * * * From that day on, Azniel continued the healing rites in the Sanctuary every single day without rest. She didn’t exchange greetings or even small talk—it was more like she was wringing herself dry. She forced her…-

IYVP CHAPTER 7
7. ‘You will be free—without fail.’ …Ah. Azniel let out a faint, powerless sigh. Back then—had that boy not just been trying to comfort her, but actually made some kind of vow to himself? Or… had things simply ended up this way by coincidence? With trembling eyes, Azniel stared at the handsome man before her. Klaus’s black eyes, meeting her gaze, were so dark they seemed to swallow all light—so much so that reading the truth behind them felt…-

IYVP CHAPTER 6
6. A short while later, the gates of the Holy Kingdom swung open—without so much as a question. The Antagon crest emblazoned on the front of the magic vehicle served as identification in itself. Without stopping even once, the vehicle rolled into the Holy Kingdom. As though waiting for it, priests stationed nearby gestured with slow, deliberate motions to guide its path. Though their hands pointed toward the direction of the Papal Palace, their eyes remained fixed on the vehicle…-

IYVP CHAPTER 5
5. The standard rye bread served in the dining hall was dry and tough—especially when compared to the white bread the acolytes usually set aside for Azniel. Of course. If she had possessed powers like the Saints of legend, maybe everyone would be eating white bread by now. Maybe she could’ve handed out a loaf to each pilgrim left out in the night dew after the sanctuary doors closed. No—from the very beginning, the Church’s authority might never have fallen so low, no matter what…-

IYVP CHAPTER 4
4. “Me… as well, Your Holiness…?” It had been quite a long time since Azniel had been summoned to attend a guest. Visitors seeking blessings of healing had long since stopped coming. And now, it was none other than the head of that heretical group. ‘The man who invented potions wouldn’t possibly be seeking a blessing.’ ‘Is he here to mock us? Or to confirm exactly how far his inventions have trespassed into sacred ground…?’ Ashamed of her reflexive…-

IYVP CHAPTER 3
3. Two years ago, the Great Temple of the Holy Kingdom. At the edge of its sprawling grounds, a small sanctuary held a makeshift blessing chamber. As the Saint withdrew her hands, the pale glow that had surrounded them faded, and awe and joy spread across the old woman’s face. “Heavens…! The throbbing pain here is completely gone!” “Mom, are you okay now?” The ragged-looking mother and daughter embraced one another. Watching the tears well in their eyes, the Saint…-

IYVP CHAPTER 2
2. Azniel stepped closer to the airship and placed her hand on the hull, her lips beginning to move. In the reverent silence, where even breathing had quieted, a pale glow seemed to bloom beneath her hand—then, as if born from it, a radiant light of deep milky white spread and enveloped the entire airship. Even to those well-acquainted with magical devices, the sight was so mysterious it rekindled forgotten reverence—perhaps sweeping away the doubt that had clouded the air…-

IYVP CHAPTER 17
17. Azniel’s heart pounded loudly. And the emotion that followed close behind, almost suffocatingly—was it surprise or excitement? She had never felt anything like this before and couldn’t quite name it. “It may be uncomfortable, but please bear with it for a moment.” The man’s low voice echoed right by her ear. It was so gentle it sent tingles up the shell of her ear. Then, he softly tilted her chin toward him, guiding her gaze to meet his directly. The way his…-

IYVP CHAPTER 16
16. "……Yes?" Azniel looked at Klaus in surprise. But the man stepping into the mana-powered carriage simply wore his usual calm expression. "Ah. If there’s a book you’re having trouble finding in the estate library, you can ask Jerome. He’ll handle it with the budget—" "N-no, it’s not like that…" Azniel flushed bright red and stole a glance at the man sitting beside her, as if trying to defend herself. It seemed the Saint, who had lived her whole life…-
