Shendo asked in a very threatening tone.Hearing that question, Kazuki remained calm and answered by stating all the facts, “It seems you already know that, huh? It may be true that I have tarnished your daughter, but you should know that it was your daughter who forced herself on me and not the other way around. So, correct your perception of it and understand it from a different perspective.”Kazuki wasn't surprised by this. He had thought about the consequences of what he did, even to the extent that maybe his relationship with Shiori was known by her father. If that happened, he had already prepared a counterattack to defend himself.He used the same method as when he confronted Sir Dawson, who asked him about it.The room was filled with tension as Shendo's threatening question hung in the air. Kazuki's response was calm, measured, and factual, but it only served to increase the tension in the room. Shendo's eyes narrowed as he listened to Kazuki's explanation, his expression gro

***Sruuptt~Cracks…Throw….Kazuki, who was casually walking home, was drinking a bottle of coffee while carrying several plastic bags of groceries.Earlier, after leaving the company building owned by the Shirasaki Group, he stopped by a nearby convenience store.Buying some groceries and a few bottles of coffee, he enjoyed his drink while leisurely walking towards the station across the wide river.As he drank his coffee, Kazuki pondered on the ways to help Shendo.“…Do I need to kill the opposing owner of the Shirasaki company?” he muttered.[…In my opinion, killing him can only be used as an option, and not the main option.]"I know that, that's why I'm thinking of a way."It was true that killing him would be easier for Kazuki, but it would only raise unnecessary suspicions and complicate the existing problem.Even if he could erase the traces of the murder, it would be difficult to eliminate the connection with him once he had declared that he would help Shendo save Shiori from

*** At this moment, the political world of the Arthia Empire was in a state of terrifying turmoil within its capital city. Nivaria, the name of the Arthia Imperial Capital, was a magnificent city located in the center of the mainland, between the prairie and the coast with towering mountains nearby. The city was surrounded by a formidable wall, making it safe from enemy attacks, but it was in a state of crisis due to the ongoing war. With a total area of approximately 5000 square kilometers, the city was separated into many districts, with the central district being the main district that sustained the majority of the political, economic, and military power of the Imperial Capital. The Imperial Palace was also located in the central district. The city was famous for its beautiful and luxurious architecture, with magnificent buildings towering into the sky. Large parks and squares were scattered throughout the city, providing places for people to gather and socialize. However, the st

***Staring out from her stagecoach, Livy watched the trees pass as her party approached the Capital City of Nivaria. However, they felt that something was amiss and decided to leave the group, staying in the city they passed before.The sight of nobles and caravans heading towards the Capital made Livy feel that something important was happening there. She could only guess uncertainly about what was going on, as she did not receive a definite answer even after Sir Robert asked a caravan that was on the same route. They only learned that there would be a grand event in Nivaria.They decided to disguise themselves and cautiously make their way to the Capital. It only took them a few more days to reach their destination.***Meanwhile, on Earth, specifically at the Igarashi Dojo, which was Kazuki's home, Ryuto and Kazuki were chatting while eating the hotpot they had made earlier. They talked about various topics, such as magic, Ryuto's eccentric dissertation, and trivial matters, inclu

"Are you telling the truth?" Ryuto asked.Kazuki answered calmly, "Of course."Hearing this, Ryuto became even more curious. "What kind of gate is it? Is it a gateway to another world?""That gate is used to open a portal to a different world than the Earth we live in. That world is called Galliather, and I want to take you there so you can learn more about the Secret Palace," Kazuki replied with a smile on his face. "Yes, it's another world. I have a power that belongs to me and its environment."Ryuto was increasingly confused and curious about the other world that Kazuki was referring to. "How can there be another world besides Earth? Galliather? And the Secret Palace? What is that?" he asked.Kazuki smiled and explained, "Galliather is another world inhabited by creatures that are different from those on Earth. There are dragons, orcs, and many more. The Secret Palace is where I live there. I want you to see that place and some of its rooms like the weapons room, bedroom, throne r
