Tanya slowed down as they neared the Gold Gate and soon came to a stop. Kassel, who had his eyes tightly shut and was trembling, cautiously got off the side and then collapsed as his legs gave way. Tanya quickly transformed from a wolf back into a human, standing with her hands neatly folded. Kassel,…

“The enemy… Captain Welch?” None of the Wolf Knights could believe it, and they were shaken. ‘Luckily, the Wolf Knights aren’t dismissing this lightly, as I had feared.’ Kassel explained slowly. “What Suvel said isn’t a lie. As Master Irine said yesterday, the ‘resurrected from death’ attacking here tomorrow is someone who once went by…

Behind the castle of Nadium, even though the Aynacast Mountain was not a volcano, it boasted hot springs from its heated underground waters. The Queen’s Garden bordered the mountain, and right next to it was a hot spring exclusive to the Queen herself. It was the place where Kassel and Tanya were summoned for a…

A lot had changed while Jaymer dozed off briefly. The sun had almost set, and the Wolves, previously unable to train due to a ‘standby’ restriction, were back to clashing wooden swords. At the next seat, Putier and Kassel were playing chess with serious expressions, while Coen was distracting Putier with small talk. Sildire was…

When Jay arrived at the training ground, most of the Wolves were already there. There was an emergency standby order, so no training was taking place.

Irine and Kassel were out on the veranda, earnestly discussing something, while the other knights were engaged in a heated debate about…

The path to the White Gate was straight as always, with no obstacles in sight. However, the advance of the black knights was only slightly faster than walking off their horses. It wasn’t that they deliberately slowed down for battle. Judging from their appearance so far, the black warhorses that everyone, including Suvel, was riding…

The Gold Gate stood imposingly across the field of vision, exuding a tremendous sense of awe. Billy closed his eyes and imagined the battle that had taken place here long ago. He saw himself at the center of the scene he had witnessed with one foot dipped into the River of Death and the imaginings…

Sanadiel soon excused herself, saying she would see them shortly. Until just moments ago, she had been dressed like the other maids, receiving the same treatment, but now she walked like a Queen, flanked by maids on either side. Though her appearance and clothing remained the same even with her hair down, she looked completely…

Dragged by Selina, Kassel found himself frantically carrying food and barrels of liquor. Despite being a man unknown to them, no one in the kitchen, filled only with women, questioned his presence with remarks like, ‘What are you doing here?’ The female head chef, who seemed to weigh twice as much as Kassel, blatantly ordered…
