Chapter 53 - Jet-Black Lady When I first met her, Sue was wearing filthy, tattered clothes; but now she donned a dress worthy of the finest high-class lady. Which made perfect sense: Sue was indeed the daughter of one of Garnet’s finest noble houses. “Very pretty, is what I’d like to say…but I can’t get used to seeing you dressed like that yet. I still think you look better in a maid outfit.” “I think so too. I haven’t worn a dress since I entered the monastery, after all.” Sue blushed,…

Chapter 52 - Pure White Lady Several days passed since our fierce battle with Captain Drake, which ultimately made him abandon the Garnet Kingdom. We received word that the Lion Kingdom, which had taken over this kingdom and turned it into a colony, had been attacked by other pirates and annihilated. With the loss of a key commander such as Drake and the fall of the home country, the Lion King pirates controlling this country were shaken to the core. The surviving forces of the Garnet Kingdom, on the…

Chapter 51 - The Divine Curse and Postponed Conclusion “Nnnaaaahhh!!” The giant cannonball cleanly struck Drake’s torso. The short distance traveled and gunpowder gave the iron sphere terrific power and speed, but even more terrifyingly, Drake managed to stop the cannonball in its tracks. “GRAAAHHH!!” “Ooh!?” He then proceeded to deflect it, as if shoving away a human opponent that tried to tackle him. The cannonball smashed against the throne room’s wall, opening a large hole through…

Chapter 50 - The Final Move “Haah!!” “Ooh!?” It was definitely a sharp slash, but Drake managed to dodge at the last moment, twisting his body out of the blade’s path. “Tch…you and your goddamn instincts…!” “Ha! Hahaha!! Your luck is even more amazing, boy! To think you’d have a trump card like this!” I continued attacking, before Drake could recover his balance, but he dodged every single strike with superhuman-like agility. “Please…! Help my…

Chapter 5 - Here Comes the Villainess 【POV: Duke Rosais】 “Oh heavens, dear count! You and your jokes” “Hahaha, oh no…these lips speak nothing but the truth!” “Hoho, our count Louz is here on a mission!” “Hahahaha.” A group of youths was sitting at a round table, enjoying tea and biscuits. All the men present belonged to powerful noble families of the central province, either as the current head or heirs. In other words, the generation that would one day lead the future of the…

Chapter 49 - Unexpected Trump Card “Tch…!” I clicked my tongue as I leaped backward. I actually knew what I was facing, though it was my first time actually seeing it: the black dog-like beast was a “Garm”, which normally dwelled in the ancient ruins known as “Dungeons”. It wasn’t nearly as strong as a Dragon or a Hydra. Its fangs were powerful enough to pierce armor, however, and its thick hair protected it from most bladed weapons, making it a natural enemy of adventurers. “Lord…

Chapter 48 - Fated Encounter with the Immortal Man “The only place to slay a woman is on a bed. Only scum would enjoy torturing them.” “Haha, that stings.” The knife had without a doubt pierced Drake’s chest, but he pulled it out as if nothing had happened. The wound closed quickly, leaving no trace behind. “A magic tool boosting recovery…? No, that can’t be it.” I was familiar with that kind of recovery. I had witnessed it since I was a child, whether I liked it or not. “So that’s…

Chapter 47 - Fallen Man We arrived at the palace’s rear entrance and entered without a word from the guards. Following the light of the torches hanging on the walls and Sue’s directions, we proceeded deeper inside. Samuel, the minister, had probably made sure to keep the guards out: we did not encounter even one on our way to the throne room. And the exact moment we arrived in front of the door, a powerful explosion went off inside. “This is…gunpowder!” I opened the door, leading the…
