- Hadrian Pov - After what seemed like an endless and exhausting journey, I could finally make out the palace gate in front of me. Because when we left, it was still dark out, but now that the sun has come up, the temperature has risen, and the environment is much more pleasant here. The carriage I was riding in came to a stop in front of the entrance to the palace. However, there was no one there to greet me, not even the maids. But it makes no difference to me because my comeback was also unexpected. "We've arrived, Alice," I said as I got up from my seat, and without waiting for Alice and Sascha, who were still closing their eyes, I got off the carriage. Alice, who was still not ready because she had just woken up, fell to the side as a result of the sudden disappearance of me, who was her body support. "aww... why are you being so cruel to me..." Alice mumbled something in a low tone as she rubbed her head and wore a frustrated expression on her face. But, seeing that I wa
- Hadrian Pov - The three of us have arrived at the entrance to the location where I will be going. Two female guards are already seen guarding a staircase leading to the underground with only an iron bar as a barrier. The stairs appear very deep because I can only see darkness from the outside. When I, Emilia, and Sascha came closer, the two guards immediately saluted, and without any further ado, one of the guards reached into her pocket, took out the key and opened the door with the iron grilles. When the metal door opened with a loud 'clank' sound, I was the first person to walk through it, followed by Sascha, and then Emilia came in last. Without looking back, I could tell they were both a little tense when they entered this place, but after seeing me descend through these dark stairs, especially Sascha, who looked wary but immediately followed me without thinking. Emilia, who was in the very back, wanted to follow my lead but was still hesitating a little bit. When she rea
"ahhh... stop... please, I beg you..."There was suddenly a scream of pain in this once quiet and eerie room. This place also contains a large number of cells where prisoners are being held.When the prisoners heard the screams getting louder and louder, they immediately became terrified and tried to close their eyes. Some of them were already crying at this point.The scream was coming from one of the cells, and in front of the cell, it could be seen that there were already two women dressed in white robes and wearing masks that were engraved to describe an emotion.When you look inside the cell, there are already a few people there. However, there are three people who stand out the most, which prompts you to wonder why the three of them are in this extremely dim and gloomy place.Because the three people have such distinct and disparate auras, the two are women with stunning faces and bodies who are coveted by all women.The other individual was a male, but he had a very handsome fac
- Hadrian Pov -"What kind of nonsense are you talking about, brother!"The first thing that went through Alice's mind was irritation, and she shot back an immediate rebuttal, whereas her mother simply raised her eyebrows in surprise."Why don't you see your mother first after you get back to your house? Is there something else that's more important?" My mother spoke to me in a soft tone and with a questioning expression on her face, but all I did was respond with a wry smile and say something."It goes without saying that nothing is more important than mother, but before I come see you, I just wanted to make sure about something."I walked over to the sofa in the room that was vacant, and without giving it much thought, I sat down and made myself comfortable there.The absence of excessive decoration in this room gives it a very clean appearance, but it does not take away from the splendor on display.There are many books on the shelves, some ornamental plants with lovely flowers, an
- Alice Pov -"Who wants to be close to you... I can do it on my own... humm."I tried to look normal despite the rapid beating of my heart, but eventually, I just couldn't take it any longer, and without even realizing it, my steps got faster.After what seemed like an endless amount of time, I finally came to a halt on a spacious balcony on the second floor of this palace. When I turned around to look behind me, I didn't see my brother's figure either.I heaved a sigh and made the decision to take a seat on a bench that was not too far away from me.From here, I have a clear view of a gorgeous sunset accompanied by a very calming atmosphere.Caused my heart, which had been beating rapidly, to begin to slow down, and it eventually returned to its normal, calm state."What is my older brother thinking? Do I have to practice politics next... huff... just imagining it makes me sleepy," I said while putting my hands above my head and yawning slightly."Because of my mother's uncontrollab
- Hadrian Pov -"Young master, do you want to do it right now?" Remarked Sascha with a gentle tone and soft voice that, for some reason, exuded an undeniable air of endearment.I was speechless for a brief period of time, unable to respond to Sascha's words. After that, I moved closer to the bed and slowly climbed onto it.After that, I climbed on top of Sascha, who was now staring at me with a lustful expression and taking shallow breaths as though she was anticipating something.The more I examine Sascha in close proximity, the more I can see her beauty, which leaves me very impressed. She has a pointed nose and pink lips that appear very soft, and I can't wait to try tasting it."Young master, I'm getting impatient. Can I start taking off my clothes?""Please," Sascha pleaded while looking at me with her dark eyes, which did not blink as they fixed their gaze on me the entire time.After that, without further ado, I brought my face closer to Sascha, and with a rapacious "mmmh" soun
- Emilia Pov -I was walking to my room after dinner had finished, and everyone had gone back to their respective rooms.And, as is my habit, I like to read books every night before I go to bed. I like to keep reading until my eyes get tired, and then I fall asleep with a bunch of books surrounding me.The topics covered in the books I read were pretty varied, ranging from books on energy and magic to books on the history of this world.Sometimes I also help my mother with the affairs of this empire, and thanks to all the information I've read, I'm also gradually starting to understand the monster that is called the Zeitgeist Empire.And as soon as I became aware of it, for some reason, my shoulders immediately began to feel heavy, and I noticed that my breathing had started to become a little bit shallow; other people may say that I carry a heavy burden as a princess of the Zeitgeist empire, so it is only natural that I feel the pressure.But that wasn't what caused me to react so dr
- Sascha Pov -As soon as I opened my eyes, I was able to make out the white ceiling of my room. However, before I could take a deep breath of the fresh morning air, I experienced a sudden and severe headache, which caused my hands to clutch my head tightly.But then, all of a sudden, the pain went away. It was as if everything I was experiencing was just a hallucination, but regardless, I let out a sigh of relief.My entire body began to shake for no apparent reason due to the strange nature of the pain, which manifested itself and then vanished suddenly.But as soon as I turned to the side, I could see the figure of Hadrian, who was fast asleep beside me. At that moment, I forgot about all of the difficulties that I had been experiencing.I can see his handsome and charming face, which never fails to captivate me, and his clothes give the impression that he is only partially clothed because his shirt is unbuttoned, allowing me to see his bare chest.When I look slightly downward, I
