Chapter 71 - The Desert Night Still Lingers Naam’s loss of consciousness brought the bath time to an abrupt end: I had to leave before I could really get a nice soak in. Mist and Sakuya took care of putting clothes on Naam and Nefertina, respectively, and brought them to a bedroom. While the two were put to sleep, I was in another room, sitting on a chair, thinking. It was still late afternoon when I got into the tub, but after spending time on this and that, the sun had set already. It was still early…

Chapter 72 - Night of Outer Temptations and Inner Struggles The words that came out from Mist’s mouth as a soft whisper were positively shocking. She looked up at me with watery eyes and traced a finger along her lips. “I will have to bear another man’s child, in any case…so I thought I would very much prefer that you, our savior, were the father. If I become pregnant with an heir, I will not be forced to marry anymore, so I will not have to be together with a man other than Valon…and I am sure…

Chapter 67 - The Birth of a Monstrous Rival “Is he…dead?” Oboro whispered. There was no trace of Benamis’ presence in the air. No body part, not even a shred of his clothing. “............” I deactivated Shape of Indra. However, I did not let my guard down and carefully scanned the surroundings. I had cut him down. I was sure of it. The feedback made that clear, but still, an alarm going off in my head. I just couldn’t feel like the battle was over. “The Magic Tool that, only once, can be…

Chapter 65 - The Sword Saint and the Poisoned Blade “Indeed, I am the mastermind behind it all. Are you surprised?” “Surprised? I sure am. I am so surprised, I could kill you.” “I’m afraid that would be an inconvenience, so I’m going to offer some resistance, Sir Dyngir.” Benamis chuckled, then raised in his right hand in my direction. The next instant, the blade piercing Nahib’s body started moving on its own, and returned to his hand. The blade, now fully visible, was enveloped in a…

Chapter 64 - The Other Mastermind “Well then…any last words, Viscount Massab?” “Y-You are Dyngir Maxwell…? Why are you here!?” Before me lay a fat white pig…more precisely, the “native noble” Nahib Massab, shaking like a leaf. I shot the man a cold glare and tapped the handle of the sword at my waist. “To be honest…I don’t want to believe that a pitiful man like you orchestrated this whole ordeal by yourself. Because of scum like you, Valon was killed, the western province was…

Chapter 70 - Naam’s Bath Rumble “…what’s going on here…?” In the bath of the residence borrowed from House Sphinx, I was currently soaking in a bathtub — with four other women. First it was just me and Sakuya, who were temporarily living in this residence, and Nefertina, who was in my care at present. This was the plan, so no problems here. The problem was the two remaining individuals. One was Naam Sphinx, heir to House Sphinx, and the other Mist Cairo, fiancee to the late Valon…

Chapter 68 - The Sword Saint’s Melancholy 【POV: Benamis Saverne】 “Jeez…that man was so terrifying…” My name is Benamis Saverne. I am the current head of House Saverne, a swordsman bestowed with the honored role of swordplay instructor for the royal family, and the title of “Sword Saint”. In the battle with Dying Maxwell, I was fatally wounded. The final blow unleashed by that man was so powerful that even using the Magic Tool meant to save the user from fatal damage, I was not able to…

Chapter 69 - Bath Time Invaders “Phew…” I was still in Thebes, capital of the Margrave Sphinx domain, sighing deeply while having a bath in the residence I was borrowing from House Sphinx. A few days had passed since Benamis Saverne had slipped through my fingers. After making my report to the Margrave, I was relieving the fatigue accumulated from the recent series of tumults via a dip in the bath. The House Sphinx territory was mainly dry land, so water was a precious resource. Filling a bathtub…
