Erselica came out into the hallway with Diana. They were both breathing heavily. Diana seemed to be losing her composure from the shock that Sara really hated her. She pressed her chest and groaned at what had just happened. "What is it with that woman? Even though she's the villainess... even though she's the one to blame for tormenting us until now, she dared to act like the victim." Erselica asked Diana. "Let's leave her with my older brother. More importantly, about Jude. He seems to be very dangerous, have you checked Lucy properly?" Diana replied in agitation. "I-I did! I also met with my sister directly! My sister herself said she was fine, and Jude said the collar is for her safety!" Erselica looked at Diana's behavior and judged it to be useless. (This girl, she was completely fobbed off with those words.) Diana could not see through Jude's true nature. Jude was also acting as someone harmless in front of Diana. (So Jude can easily fool Diana when he gets serious.

An armed unit broke through the wall of the sacred tree temple and came out. It was a personal armored unit possessed only by the head or heir of Banfield Household, a custom-made one. Aster's weapons had the mechanism to receive energy from the sacred tree. It had the requirement that its pilot needed to have an emblem, but its performance was several levels above armor of similar specifications. The Supreme Kingdom was undefeated in defensive battles because they were confident in the capability of this type of weapon. In that same way they claimed to be undefeated in frontal battles as well, Banfield Household boasted about it since they defeated an invading fleet from the empire twenty years ago. And then, among the armed units that Banfield Household possessed, there was an armor that only the six great nobles could wear. It was originally given the role of standing out as a commander's ride. It was designed with the premise that it would be a member of the six great nobles w

Jude was dreaming. He was remembering that autumn day last year. The day his life changed forever. He had left a party where many noble children were gathered. This party was for him, his father wanted him to look for connections with nobles and to see if he could look for his future and possible wife. "It's so boring in there." Jude walked down a long sloping path, at the edges was grass growing. He wore a smart suit and his tie was a mess. "All women are boring, there aren't any who don't think of themselves. If they want me to marry a woman like that, then let them engage me to Sara, but my father wouldn't like that." He kicked a can, that can was flying straight into a river. The sun was going down. As the can fell, Jude was about to turn around to go back to the party. Then─ "What a cute kitty." He heard a voice coming from the bridge linking the islands. As he turned his gaze to see the owner of that voice. He was shocked to see a girl. She was feeding a cat. The

It was nighttime, Liam was in the kitchen at his work station. The boss let him use it to practice cooking. "Umm, it's kind of hard to decide what to do." Liam was thinking about how beneficial it was for the Kingdom's kitchen to include foreign food. So this was very important to him. "The density of the soup stock is fine, the chicken and pork are well cooked. Also the noodles and seaweed well soaked to gain thickness, what am I missing?" The crown prince was on a motto. He had been in that position for hours and the broth got cold. It was early morning even. Without meaning to, Liam closed his eyes. ◇◇◇ (Where am I?) Liam was in a dark place filled with fog. He didn't know what to do or where to go. Then, in the distance he visualized a figure. (Bradford!?) Rudel was for some reason in that place, his distance from Liam's was immense. (Wait, Bradford!) Liam ran after Rudel. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up. (Why can't I catch up with you?) Liam

Once upon a time there was a girl who was not like other girls. That girl saw life in a boring way. Born into a family of counts, that girl with cyan-blue hair, fuchsia eyes and drills as a hairstyle, she─ Eleonora von Roseblaire, was bored at the moment. Entering the Altfode Kingdom academy, she expected an exciting life because she would meet many people of different statuses. In the end, that first year was spent yawning. After a while, her second year at the academy arrived. The first semester of the new school year started smoothly. Eleonora, or Ellen as her family called her, sat drinking tea in a social gathering room. Her entourage was talking to her, but she ignored them. (How boring it is today, no, it was boring yesterday and it will be boring tomorrow.) Ellen's days were calm and peaceful, she was bored with those days being like that. She wanted excitement in her life. Something to get her heart pumping and remind her that she was alive. It was then, when a pi
