Episode 16 His visit to Ainra in the middle of the night wasn’t solely because of the nightmare. Though it was true that he had a nightmare, by now, he had become far too accustomed to them for that to be the real reason he sought her out. “I’ve decided to act a little selfish from now on.” He whispered, playing with her chestnut-colored hair. “But you can’t hate me for it.” With that, the hair he was holding slipped from his fingers, falling gently onto the…

Episode 15 As soon as the words were spoken, a knight who had been conversing seriously nearby approached Sir Jered. “Commander, I have a report that you need to hear immediately.” “A report? Is it urgent?” “Yes. Just now, from the capital…” The knight hesitated and glanced at both As and me. Sensing that this was not something outsiders should hear, I quickly spoke up. “Sir Jered, please feel free to attend to your duties. As and I can manage our meal on our…

Episode 14 I immediately summoned Undine, a mid-level water spirit. The beautiful, snake-like Undine moved according to my will, summoning rain over the area where the fire was concentrated. Shwoooosh— As torrential rain poured down in one spot, mist from the downpour filled the air, creating a dense fog. The fresh scent of water spread throughout the surroundings. "Rain…! It’s raining, but only over there!" "The fire’s being put out! The rain’s extinguishing the flames!" "Look…

Episode 13 I tried to sneakily figure out As’s wish while he was off guard, but feeling guilty, I quickly averted my gaze. "What did you write, Ainra?" As asked, noticing my sudden distraction as I awkwardly cleared my throat and pretended to be interested in something else. Turning back to face him, I winked with a playful smile. "That’s a secret, too." "…That’s boring." As stared blankly at me for a moment before abruptly turning his head away. Between the curls of his hair,…

Episode 12 "Ainra?" As’s voice broke through my thoughts. When I snapped back to reality, I saw As’s worried face in my line of sight. "Yeah, As." Even though I smiled softly as I replied, As still looked concerned as he asked again. "Are you okay? You seemed out of it earlier." A small hand touched my forehead. Though small, it was rough with patches of calluses here and there. I gently pulled As’s hand down and answered, "I’m fine, As." "…Are you sure?" His…

Episode 11 As looked at me with worried red eyes. The moment I met his gaze, something surged up in my chest. This little boy, worrying about 'me'—when he was the one hit by boiling stock! I snapped out of my daze instantly. I immediately used my spirit’s healing powers, pouring the magic over As’s back. A greenish-blue glow wrapped around his upper body before seeping in. "You’re the one who’s hurt, not me." I said, gritting my teeth as I examined him carefully. His back…

Episode 10 I let out a small smile. "…Thanks for worrying about me." Sella gently rubbed her head against my leg as if to comfort me. Silavi landed on my left cheek, flapping her wings slowly in a soothing manner, while Quiel gave me a tight hug on my right cheek. The little mushroom-shaped Gnome jumped onto my shoulder and pressed his cap-like head against my neck. Even though spirits didn’t radiate warmth, their intentions to comfort me were clear. I began to feel a little warmth…

Episode 9 As a thought flashed through my mind, I suddenly paused. ‘Wait. If As is a high-ranking noble, he’ll likely meet Akes quite often, right?’ Of course, As would need to grow a bit more, but in a few years, at royal banquets or balls, they’d surely cross paths. ‘In that case, I might be able to improve my relationship with Akes through As!’ It was the perfect messenger strategy! If I treated As well while he stayed here, I could ask him to speak kindly about me to Akes when…

Episode 8 I spoke, my voice trembling slightly. "How could I not worry about you?" I can’t be at ease until I’ve fully avenged you and put you on a path of happiness! Harnen responded with a lazy smile. "I'm happy, Ainra." Perhaps it was because he had been an emperor in a previous life, but Harnen’s languid smile reminded me of a well-fed predator, exuding a certain regal charm. Oh, my precious favorite. Everything you do is just so cool, cute, and beautiful all at once. As I…

Episode 7 The Grand Duke's pale pink eyes gleamed. "A place? Are you saying that Akes has been taken in by someone?" "Yes, and he's living quite comfortably." "…Comfortably? But that boy had every bone in his body broken. Those bones must have caused severe internal damage. Even the most skilled sorcerer would need at least several months to heal that." The Grand Duke of Baharman frowned in disbelief. Dante shook his head. "There are methods other than sorcery. Methods even more…
