SMFCV Chapter 9
Chapter 9. The Brave Dog After the strawberries, it was the bouquet of flowers. The wildflowers looked freshly picked, their dew-laden stems cool to the touch. I ended up clutching the bouquet tightly to my chest as Nexiard and I walked down the road together. “Ladies and gentlemen, young and old, come one, come all, to the most laugh-out-loud circus! It’s not here every day!” A clown wearing a bright yellow conical hat balanced atop a large ball, handing out flyers. “Today’s the final…-

SMFCV Chapter 8
Chapter 8. Change Crossing beech forests, vast plains, and frozen rivers, they passed through two small villages. During their last night camping, rain poured down, accompanied by hailstones the size of fingernails that rattled noisily against the tent. Despite her clear exhaustion, Myrda followed without a single complaint. Not once did she suggest taking an earlier rest. As for Nexiard, it was his first time carrying a living person—not just a corpse or cargo—on horseback. He carefully…-

SMFCV Chapter 7
Chapter 7. The Lullaby of the Wind The pale blue air of early dawn cloaked the village like a bride's veil, shrouding it in mystery. Mist pooled in the hollowed basin of the valley, which the villagers called the Winter Queen's breath. If that were true, then was the dew clinging to the crackling leaves her tears? Nexiard brushed the "tears" from his shoulders and suddenly thought of ‘that woman’. The one who had crumbled like a half-melted snowman, tears streaking her cheeks. On her ghostly pale…-

SMFCV Chapter 6
Chapter 6. Let’s Go, Lady Nexiard devoured the food as if determined to deplete what little provisions we had. Smoked venison reeking of firewood, sugar-soaked apples, and half-rotten cabbage vanished in an instant. It was as if he wanted to flaunt his vitality through his voracious appetite. Watching him eat so savagely made it almost uncomfortable to even look at him. As expected, Mr. Kimber’s clothes were too small for Nexiard. Though their heights were surprisingly similar, the fabric stretched…-

SMFCV Chapter 5
Chapter 5. Pure Joy Walking felt like treading on a sheet of thin ice. Beneath the transparent surface, life’s turbulent currents swirled indifferently. Each step threatened to shatter the fragile barrier, keeping me constantly on edge. Since that day—the day Nexiard whispered his thanks for saving him—he had remained in a deathlike slumber. I began to wonder if the barbarian arrows carried not just poison but a curse. A curse to entomb the soul forever, leaving the body to breathe but…-

SMFCV Chapter 3
Chapter 3. The Eternal Supporting Character “Aaah!” I collapsed to the floor, strength draining from my body as I stared at the scene before me. It was impossible to believe what I was seeing. Mrs. Kimber, her face pale and streaked with tears, turned her head away, wiping her damp cheeks. “M-Myrda…” “Auntie… w-what… what is this…” “Sobs… What do we do? What do we do!” I crawled on all fours to embrace Mrs. Kimber, pulling her into my arms. She was so small, she…-

SMFCV Chapter 27
Chapter 27. The Notorious Freshman The central staircase leading to the attic was a spiral, illuminated by golden sunlight streaming through a wall of windows. Spring had arrived. In the gardens outside, lilac trees bloomed in soft shades of lavender, their fragrance almost teasingly wafting up as if it might somehow reach even here. I paused on the landing, taking a moment to steady my breath and absorb the view of the Academy’s garden. A white cabbage butterfly fluttered aimlessly through the…-

SMFCV Chapter 26
Chapter 26. Cruel Justice The clear stream glinted in the sunlight, refracting the rays like a shattered mirror. In some places, the light danced in rainbow hues. It was spring—the season when hibernating frogs awaken and leap into the water, scattering droplets in their wake. Yet, by the muddy banks of the stream, mounds of snow stubbornly lingered, piled as though marking graves for small creatures like pheasants or rabbits that children might have buried. The ground by the stream was damp,…-

SMFCV Chapter 25
Chapter 25. For the Princess With the Marquis of Ivelucia’s sponsorship secured, the Marchioness offered me a room in their estate so I could focus on my studies. “We’ve always provided accommodations for protégés without a suitable residence. Please don’t feel burdened by it,” she explained. Though living in the mansion until my admission to the Academy wasn’t part of my original plan, it was too good an offer to decline. Thankfully, I had not yet formally arranged for housing, so her…-
