When Kassel woke up, he found himself engulfed in darkness, unable to see anything. He waited for his eyes to adjust to the dark, trying to recall what he had done before falling asleep. The memories of Janie greeting him warmly with a hug and dining with Falcon’s men were vivid. But after sitting down…

(TL Note: Warning, this chapter is also dark) By evening, Bading and his army had returned to Leang after completing their mission in Denmoju. The people of Leang, who had been tormented by the attacks of the Red Rose Count in recent days, didn’t need to be told that the cessation of those attacks was…

Ambrue had already become a ruin, a place so desolate that it wouldn’t have been strange if an army had swept through. Corpses, both civilians and soldiers, were heaped together in the village. Those few who had survived regarded Kassel with fearful eyes as he passed by on horseback. Finding Count Enoa’s mansion was not…

(TL Note: Warning, this chapter is quite dark.) Latilda couldn’t calm herself and continued to pace the lobby. Only when evening arrived did the cavalry who had been patrolling return.

In Normant, the soldiers were stationed in the fortress, waving their flags or holding up their spears, eager to demonstrate their strength. However, Luchi had known for some time that no other nobles’ reinforcements had arrived in Normant. ‘The march…

Perhaps feeling the intensity of Sheyden’s gaze, she lifted her hand and mimicked his posture. “What are you staring at? Rude kid.” With a nod of his head in a particular direction, Sheyden walked away. As Azwin followed him, she…

‘She’ hid momentarily behind a wall and waited. Two guards, each leading a guard dog, were engaged in a heated discussion as they walked by. She moved past them in sync with their conversation. They didn’t notice her at all. Dressed in tight-fitting black clothes that clung to her body, and wearing a hood that…
