“Kugh…” “Insignificant bastards acting all cocky.” The knight who took Lowell’s strike collapsed with a thud. She didn’t kill him. They weren’t worth that much. Having regained her freedom, Lowell stretched her body. To think they didn’t use mana restraints on her. “Even if they were in a hurry, still. What a bunch of idiots.”…

“You’ve all likely already heard, but the true culprit behind this incident has been revealed to be Nade. Or more accurately, I should say Baron Kelven in disguise.” “That can’t be…” “It’s a lie, right? There’s no way someone so wonderful and kind could be Baron Kelven!” As soon as Caron finished his brief briefing,…

“Hmm…” Adonis, who had been half-asleep while leaning against a rough boulder, scratched his ear. His ear was itching strangely. Was someone talking about him behind his back? “No one’s left alive to talk badly about a dead man… How odd.” As Adonis stretched out a little, his joints cracked and groaned. He might’ve looked…

“I never said that! You must’ve misheard me.” Despite her words, Lowell was busy avoiding my eyes. Which meant she absolutely remembered our bet. The bet where she’d staked a ‘Wish Ticket’ that could grant anything. “Keke, not keeping your promise? Has wearing that uniform made your mind regress to a child’s?” “W-What are you…

The reason why all our gazes were drawn to Lowell was perfectly understandable. Her youthful features that could easily pass for a student’s, her petite height and slender frame, her outstanding abilities, and even her somewhat childish mannerisms. She embodied every single condition we’d imagined for the perfect fit. Truth be told, the only thing…

“Everyone, try to focus for a moment. It seems like there’s a fresh perspective emerging here.” At Lowell’s words, the children’s gazes naturally shifted toward me. She must have intended to embarrass me, but unfortunately for her, that didn’t quite work out. ‘I know the correct answer.’ And not just any answer, but the perfect…

Knight Pjol remained confined to his room as before. Aside from the occasional visits from Daike, during which they exchanged a few words, his days passed in near-total silence. Yet Pjol did not find it stifling in the least. Time simply slipped away as he immersed himself in meditation and prayer, or let his mind…

Lowell fled from Caron’s grasp as though her life depended on it. Only after glancing back and confirming that he wasn’t pursuing her did she finally release a deep sigh of relief. “Phew… It’s the first time I’ve ever seen Caron so fixated on someone like that.” That alone was proof enough of just how…

“If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t. I’ll figure it out myself.” Lowell crossed her arms and grumbled. She looked dead set on actually making a deal with a demon. ‘Is she that cornered?’ I’d never heard anything in the game about Lowell contracting with a demon. Which meant she probably met her…

“Alright, then let’s talk right away.” Lowell rubbed her hands together, looking expectant. It was a stark contrast to her previous reluctance, where she wouldn’t agree to the deal even on pain of death. “Keke, your attitude changed quickly.” “I’m not the type to look back. If I decide to do it, I just do…
