'father...'
His father smiles softly as he's trying to convey his mind.
'son... don't be disappointed yet... we never know after all.'
His father doesn't lose hope yet. He believed there was more to it.
Because, this young man's smile while catching him fall just a while ago, wasn't a lie. It's a very sincere smile.
That's why,
He shakes his head toward his son. He's trying to tell him to wait and listen up first. Don't jump to a conclusion. Sometimes some words could cloud over our judgment without hearing the rest so, don't bite onto this young man's first words instead, hearing the rest is the best.
"Sir... and how should they pay the fees with??"
Kelt who seems to be believed in his young master's way of thinking quickly follows up on his young master's remarks. He

Kelt sometimes wonders if Leon really is not the real son of Duke Fronti.This is because, from what he sees, sometimes, Leon's side looks so similar to his adoptive father Duke Carl.Or maybe, this looks like that because Leon was taken care of since childhood by them.'Maybe this is just my imagination ??'Kelt tried to forget his strange thoughts by shaking his head as Leon's voice continued ringing to both of their ears."Sir... if you are so unsure about accepting my offer... I give you 3 days to think about it... in the meantime..."Leon gives his glance to Kelt.Kelt noticed it and focused on him. The father also did the same."Give your address to Lek...

Duke's Son Wish To Follow The Story Chapter 53 : Eldest Forest
Well, if we're looking at the name, it looks simple and ordinary. But the truth was the opposite.In the novel, this Eldest Forest was described as the manslaughter forest.Day and night, people who enter that forest will disappear but it's more troublesome during the night.Some still disappear during the day but, it's not much because the light that shines in the forest helps them to see the devil that might devour them.However, the author still states that,'You may avoid the night away from the devil yet during the day don't close your eyes, for that is the only way for you to survive..'That means they still need to be wary on a plain day, but it's still better than travelling at night as their eyesight didn't help them during that time."Eldest Forest..."Leon murmurs those names as he contemplates and looks down.The Eldest Forest in the novel was said to have caused many deaths. At first, people didn't believe it, they thought it might be just a bandit. But, after an investig

"What should we do now sir??? should we just enter??"With the question coming from Kelt, Leon opened his eyes and gazed outside. The sun was still rising. The sky was clear. They stop their carriage right in front of the forest entrance.Leon's eyes focus on the forest. He could feel the sinister aura coming from it. The forest was looking gloomy and creepy. The inside looks dark but there seems to be sunshine still entering it.'I really don't want to enter that forest...'He thought.His expression still looks stoic but his heart is beating quite fast with nervousness. The others were waiting for his command but to be honest, he just wishes to fly from that place."How is the preparation??"He asks.He just wants to make sure everything was prepared thoroughly before going. They already make a plan at the village earlier before departing here so, it should be enough to serve as the way for them to survive."We're read

Swoosh !!!The sound of grass and foliage scattered the surroundings as the breeze blew.Yet not a single sound came from the unwanted owners of this forest.The sound of the horses and the carriages they rode was ignored by them. Leon and his crew have no voice in this kind of atmosphere. For them, this situation is like the silence before a storm hits. That's why they did not stop looking around and be ready.'Young master said if something unexpected happens... he will give us command for that... so for now... we need to stay vigilant...'Thought Noxin.Leon had already told them back then when they were at the village that, in this forest, they never know what might happen. Even with a plan on their hand, if something unexpected happens to them that far off from their own expectancy then, At that time,He will cease aside all of their plans so far and command them to proceed with the most less causality outcome.Because of

Not just him, the others were the same.But, Kelt who heard him saying that didn't answer him.Instead, the one who answers his question was Noxin."it'll be fine... if it's the young master then... it's all will be fine..."He says with full of conviction.The others grip the horses' rope tighter hearing it. They both then nodded their head in agreement and smile while chuckling a little bit.Somehow with just those tiny little words in the middle of this current situation, it's already enough to let their stiffened and tense feeling disappear.That's why,"yeah... the young master we know... will always be fine..."Kelt manages to answer that way while snickering.However,<

The witch grabs the door of the carriage. She could feel her heart beating fast in excitement. The smell of the blood inside caused her saliva to flow out of her mouth, making her already ugly face distorted disgustingly. She wipes that away as she thought,'it smells fresh and...'Licks*She licks her lips and swallowed her saliva.'I want to eat it so bad... no... I want to drink it like wine...'Creekkk!!!Thoughts her while opening up the door slightly. A stench smell of blood then escapes from between the door gap and enters her nose. And that totally couldn't help but make her smile grow wide.'it smells strong... real strong!!!'Her mouth watered more and she swallowed her saliva once again.She is the witch who couldn't see anything but, she could still smell and hear things very well.

Leon doesn't really seriously plan to sacrifice anyone here. He just acts that way to fool them and leads them to this situation. But,'well... they don't know so...it couldn't be helped...'As they didn't know anything, their emotion isn't as rational as his at the moment.Meanwhile,Kelt in the meantime didn't bother with them. He rather looks down as he whispers to his young master."Young master..."[what....??]"hmm...you..."He pauses for a moment, contemplating something.But, as he didn't give his young master an answer for a while, his young master then interferes.He says,[did you think I did this on purpose???]"-!!!"Chills*Kelt feels a chill around his neck.

The pair fell into a brief silence upon hearing Leon's words.Indeed, their visit here wasn't solely for this investigation.As narrated in the novel, at this point, the duo should have been progressing on their journey somewhere in the eastern lands. Upon discovering clues regarding the dragon's presence there, they set out to investigate.Yet, somehow, they find themselves here instead.This unforeseen circumstance likely stems from the butterfly effect of Leon's attendance at the banquet, causing the issue to escalate to a point where they couldn't ignore it.It's not that Leon failed to grasp their perspective; rather,'They ought not to divert their attention this way. They should continue their journey. Otherwise, the narrative would veer off course.'That's why Leon gently reminds them, despite the risk of raising suspicion."...It's true that we had other matters to attend to, but... how did you become aware of that, Your Majesty? I don't recall mentioning it, do you, Josh?""

Joshua and Luis exchanged glances. Having heard the recounted story, they now identified the culprit responsible for everything that had occurred. However, this revelation didn't automatically translate into complete trust in the witch's narrative, even considering her close association with the duchess and duke. They were well aware of the witches' notorious reputation. Furthermore, recognizing that only one side of the story didn't guarantee authenticity, Joshua stated, "We need to delve deeper into our investigation if we want to find the truth."Luis agreed, saying, "I agree. For now, let's return to your majesty and hear his side of the story before drawing any more conclusions." Subsequently, they expressed their gratitude and took their leave.Julia and the witches were once again left alone in the cabin. The place then lapsed into silence for a moment. Contemplating something, Julia finally made up her mind and spoke, "Ellen... could you assist me with something?""Me?"******

We're friends.""Hahaha, right, we're friends. But still, you must be shocked to see me like this.""...I'm more surprised to see you suddenly change like that. Did the curse break?"Julia inquired, a bit curious after witnessing Ellen, the witch, transform her appearance into her past beautiful self right before her eyes."Ah, that... it's thanks to Daniel.""Hmm? Why thanks to him?""Well, I don't know yet, but you know about my weaknesses, right?""Your core, yes, I know. So?""I don't know why, but whenever that guy touches me or my core, my appearance reverts back to the old me.

Chapter 224 : Mother 3
The dragon known to Leon as Tania had a past when she was called Tania Ermir. This was the name she bore before marrying her late husband, Daniel Arwin. As an egg, she was discovered by the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom, who took care of her since her mother passed away shortly after laying the egg. Despite their care, Tania had to fend for herself during the crucial moments of her egg's survival. After centuries in her egg form, Tania emerged as a beautiful snake dragon. The Cloud's Kingdom royalty treated her as their own, giving her the name Tania and adopting their family name, Ermir. However, driven by adult dragon instincts, Tania eventually left the kingdom to journey on her own, only to return and find her hometown no longer existing. 'She had a challenging journey,' Leon thought before continuing, "in any case, now you comprehend the ties I have to that forest and the clouds, and you've discovered my identity. Thus, that concludes the first question, doesn't it?" Luis no

Leon's eyes briefly swept across the three figures, offering them a slight bow before returning his attention to Ellen. He felt no compulsion to extend excessive greetings to them. His focus shifted, driven by a more pressing matter."Anyway, how did this happen?" His question aimed to unravel the current situation before him. Ellen had been in this condition for an extended period, making her sudden ability to contact her friends a dubious development.The notion of her meeting his mother seemed implausible, given the duchess's infrequent outings. As for forming acquaintanceship with the boys, especially Joshua, it appeared highly unlikely. Joshua, with his temperament, would unquestionably eliminate her, just as he had done to Tania. After all, the witch was notorious for her atrocities.And what about the duke, Carl? Carl possessed the ability to travel great distances, using methods unknown to Leon. If he intended to return home without utilizing his unique abilities, Leon was con

"Anyway, Gray... I'll be departing from this place tomorrow."CrackThe glass in Gray's hand cracked the moment Leon finished his sentence. Gray swiftly shifted his attention to Leon, his other hand still gripping a jug of water, as he inquired, "I will follow you, right? Your Majesty?""Hmm?" Leon took a bite of the bread he had soaked in mushroom soup."I will be leaving alone, though," he casually stated."What!? Then... then, what about me?""You'll stay here.""But why? Your Majesty... is there something you don't like about me? I'll fix it—""Fix your way of calling me first," Leon muttered sternly, though his demeanor remained casual."Alright... Milord. I will call you that... is that okay?""Hmm, much better. Even so, you won't follow me.""What? Why?"Gray's question made him look like an abandoned puppy, but Leon wasn't moved in the slightest."You still have things to do here for me. So, stay. I will go home alone."In the end, Gray had to give up."...Haa, I will do as yo

Anyway, that's what transpired. However, when it came to the conversation between Daniel and the cloud people, Gray remained unaware. He was preoccupied being given a tour by the Cloud's inhabitants.Upon leaving the location, Daniel handed him a piece of canvas and explained that he had used it to secure their entry to the palace.Confusion clouded Gray's mind about how it happened. Nevertheless, witnessing Daniel's familiarity with the cloud people and hearing them address him as "Milord," Gray had no doubt about the truth of his current master's words.Furthermore,'Even though he said he would just pretend to be the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom... I'm pretty sure that this man— he was indeed the king of these people!'There was a misunderstanding in Gray's mind that Daniel was, in fact, a royal figure.From that moment onward, the way Gray treated Leon changed. Instead of addressing him as sir or milord, he now referred to him as his majesty, fitting of his lord's status. Althou

Despite Gray's incredulity at what he was witnessing, both he and Leon found themselves on the cloud. People who appeared engrossed in their own activities halted their work and approached the duo, forming a crowd. Leading them was an elderly man who greeted Daniel as if they were familiar. "Milord, we have come as you called. Is there something the matter?" "Hey Anan, sorry to call you suddenly, but... I just wanted to ask you something. Can we talk for a moment?" "Sure. But that man..." "Ah, he's my servant. I'll leave him in the care of others for a moment. Can you guys show him around, perhaps?" "Sure, it's my joy to do so!" "We will do it for you, milord!" "Yeah, young man, please follow us!" While Gray was being led around by the cloud's inhabitants, Leon ventured to a secluded spot with Anan. "By the way, Anan...

"Arghhh* RAN!!! Please help us!! De-demon!! A child watches as his village burns down. All around him, the air is filled with screams from the villagers. His hands clench tightly onto the body of his mother, who carries him while running. His father was left behind to protect them both. Although at first, his mother hesitated, for him, she ran. How long has it been? He didn't know. However, the only time his mother stops is when they no longer see the village in their sight. His mother leans down behind a tree, still tightly hugging him and patting him, telling him everything will be fine, that she will protect him. "Mother..." The small child utters those words unconsciously, trying to look up to see his mother's face. Thud* Suddenly, at that moment, his ears hear the sound of something falling near him. His eyes stop turning at his mother; instead, his head instinctively turns to look at what had fallen. 'What is that?' His head questions, looking at an unknown object l
