Translator: Kii Editor: EllieKit “The user you have dialled is temporarily unavailable, please try again later…” “Beep, beep, beep…” The terminal received the system’s busy tone for the nth time. Light hung up the call, the screen switching back to their chat interface. In the column of messages he had sent on the right, Mu Chen had not replied to any of them. An hour ago, he was in a state where he was unreachable. Because he couldn’t reach Mu Chen, Light could…- 136.0 K • Ongoing
Chapter 18: Acknowledging Weakness (Part 3) (Final Chapter of the Childhood Arc) As soon as I returned to my room, I thanked Zain and watched him leave before diving onto my bed and letting out a sigh. "Are you asleep?" "Nox!" I was startled by Nox's voice and jumped up. I rushed to him and hugged him tightly, and his strong arms wrapped around me. "What's wrong?" "I want to tell you something, Nox." Talking about the past is scary, but I feel like I can tell…- 29.7 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 17: Acknowledging One's Weakness (Part 2) I focused my gaze on the sword's dull blade, illuminated by the sunlight, and drew Oreole from my waist as instructed. I kept the scabbard on, as Nox had told me not to remove it. Without understanding what was happening, I held Oreole up, ready to face Alan. In that instant, Alan vanished from in front of me and reappeared behind me, his polished blade pressed against my neck. "You're too slow." I stumbled forward, almost falling, as Alan…

- Chapter 16: Acknowledging One's Weakness (Part 1) When I woke up, I realized I was being hugged by something big and slightly hard. As I lifted my face, I saw Nox's handsome face with his eyes closed, and my heart began to beat faster. I was worried that my heartbeat might wake him up, but he didn't stir. I brought my index finger close to Nox's lips. Just as I was about to touch him gently, our eyes met, and I saw his deep crimson eyes, which were still blurry from sleep. I quickly withdrew my…

- Chapter 14: Let’s Go See the Simurgh! (Part 1) After finishing my usual magic practice, I headed to the stables with Oreole and Beatrice to see the Simurgh. A few days ago, I received word that the preparations to accommodate the Simurgh were complete, and it had been moved to the stables. It’s still a child, so it could stay in my room for now, but once it grows, it’ll become too large to fit. Nox had arranged for it to be cared for in the stables. “The stables are also…

- Chapter 15: Let's Go See The Simurgh! (Part 2) Perhaps because of the cake incident, I had developed a slight sense of discomfort towards Alan. Although Alan had reluctantly agreed. "Sol, remember what you said the other day? You wanted to become strong and create a world where everyone can be happy. I want to help you with that. Will you take my hand?" Nox's serious gaze pierced through me. It felt truly happy to have someone I loved say something like that. I wanted to take his hand. I felt…

- Chapter 13: I Have Fallen Ill ② A few weeks had passed since I arrived at the Demon King’s castle. So much had happened, and it felt like my emotions couldn’t keep up. I had things I liked, and whenever I told Nox, he always made sure I had them. Everyone treated me kindly, and I felt happy. But sometimes, I wondered if I really deserved all of this. I wanted things, but I had lived without them for so long that there were times when I felt like I could manage without them. Nox had told me…

- Chapter 12: I've Fallen Ill ① Since the cake incident, I feel like I've been thinking about Nox more and more. While practicing magic, I couldn't help but remember the kiss on my forehead, and my heart raced. "Hey, focus!" "Ah, wha! I'm sorry!" I panicked when Zain scolded me. My emotions had fluctuated, disturbing my magical energy, causing the flames I had conjured to flicker and shift into various shapes, big and small. Thanks to my magic control practice, I had been able to handle it…

- Chapter 11: The Demon King Arrives in a Pinch! (Part 3) The boy looked at me as if I were something disgusting. His eyes were just like my mother’s—cold and filled with silent disdain. “Aren’t you angry? Did you… poison it or something?” “…I would never do that.” “I don’t trust you.” With that, he raised his foot. His target was the cake, which still retained a faint semblance of its original shape. The sweet, delicious strawberries were crushed, looking almost…

- Chapter 10: The Demon King Arrives in a Pinch! (Part 2) Finally, the cake was baked. After letting it cool, I started decorating it. I swirled lightly sweetened whipped cream around the cake. The first attempt was messy, but I got better and eventually made it look nice. I topped it with strawberries and an ornament handmade by Thomas. The little figurines that looked just like me and Nox were adorable. And with that, my favorite cream-filled cake was complete! “Can I take this to Nox…
