Memories that usually didn’t come to mind when moaning and groaning with a bandaged head tended to suddenly resurface at unexpected moments. Before falling asleep, Azwin briefly recalled the things Gerald had said. Gerald said he had already been tempted. At first, she thought it was just a joke, but it didn’t seem to be….

As Rontlos returned, the Lemif soldiers finally began to move actively. They spoke and acted with renewed hope and motivation. No one ordered them, but they finished preparing meals as soon as morning came, and as soon as the meal was over, preparations for moving were complete. Along with that, Azwin and Gerald also had…

Knadil yawned and lay down on its belly. The self-illuminating red scales reflected Tanya’s healing light and looked like a giant ruby. The genteel eyes intently watched the two, and the breath from its nose was warm. Things that had only existed as outlines within Tanya’s vision the whole time began to absorb the light…

“Is that the appearance you chose?” The Queen of Aranthia, whom Tanya was meeting for the first time with Tailed, asked with a smile. It was a mature smile, but there was a childlike curiosity on one side of it. If you stared for a long time, it became hazy. To ordinary people, Queen Sanadiel…

Except for a couple of hours of taking turns sleeping in the middle, the group barely rested at all.

In front of Nontil’s death, Sinabia couldn’t stop crying. Lofin laid down Vena Esarck and recited a short poem in memory of the deceased Nontil. The red glow of the Vena Esarck, a sword known to kill dragons, contrasted with the emerald light of the chamber, seemed to add color to the dragon’s face. The…

The Lemif soldiers, after a long discussion without Rontlos, decided to use a pit that looked like it had been dug by a giant beast as their lodging for the night. Azwin said, “If we just lay down some fallen leaves at the entrance, it’ll be the best hiding place, indiscernible to friend or foe…

At first, Rontlos had taken care of them kindly, but now that he had returned to being the commander leading the troop, he had no choice but to neglect them. Sermei, who always smiled, did show a friendly appearance but did not speak. The other Lemifs were wary of the two. Thanks to this, they…

During their brief exchange of words, Azwin learned that the elves were called Lemifs and humans were referred to as Ugeh.

Azwin decided to use the words Lemif and Ugeh…
