Chapter 22 - Invitation to Despair 【POV : Selena Nommes】 “Lord Sullivan...” I was in my room in the Nommes manor looking at the night sky from my window. About one week ago, Maxwell soldiers visited house Nommes. Their objective was to arrest Sullivan, my husband, on charges of the attempted assassination of my former fiance, Lord Dyngir. “Oh, Lord Sullivan...why did you change so…?” The Lord Sullivan I talked with in the flower garden of the academy and the Lord Sullivan that married…-

Chapter 21 - A Fool’s Demise “Looks like it’s over.” Shana walked towards me, looking at Sullivan’s mass of flesh, which was sinking in a pool of blood. “Yeah, looks like it. It always ends too quickly.” I nodded and sheathed my sword. Thinking about it, my sword 【Siegfried】, which had the power to neutralize magic, could have negated Sullivan’s immortality, maybe. (Oh well, who cares.) I had no intention of letting him die easily anyway. This way I didn’t have to go to the…

Chapter 20 - How to Kill an Immortal “MAXWEEELLLL!!!” “You don’t need to shout. I can hear you just fine.” Sullivan swung his fists at me repeatedly. I dodged each one, stepping to the right, left, front, and back as needed. “Hey, Sullivan. I’m not the petty person you seem to think I am, you know. I said something different when I scolded you, that’s true, but I don’t throw away a person after a single mistake.” I talked, even though I was fully aware that he wasn’t listening.…

Chapter 2 - Countermeasures are Crafted in Bed As soon as I returned to my home province, I reported the whole incident to my father and wrote a letter of protest to the king and Baron Nommes. Apparently, His Majesty the king had already been informed about the commotion in the academy, and immediately sent a letter of apology. Thanks to the proper response of the royal house and the abundant sum included as recompensation, the matter could be considered resolved, for the time being. On the other…

Chapter 19 - The Hero’s Bracelet “Haha...hahaha...” “What…?” Sullivan started laughing all of a sudden, so Lowen frowned. He then noticed that Sullivan was now wearing a silver bracelet and looked at him, wide-eyed. “What’s that bracelet!? Men, restrain him!!” “Yes sir!!” Lowen did not know what the bracelet really was, but he was sure it was a magic tool — so he immediately ordered his subordinates to move. However— “Gwaaaahhh!!!” Sullivan roared and swung his…

Chapter 18 - The Final Struggle 【POV : Sullivan Nommes】 “Shit!! Why haven’t they reported back yet!!” I was sitting on a chair in my room in house Nommes, nervously tapping the armrests. I tried my hardest to contain my irritation these past few days. Two weeks ago, I met a man called Zaill in a tavern in town. He introduced me to the band of assassins 『Fangs of Steel』, to whom I requested the murder of Dyngir Maxwell. The man from the 『Fangs of Steel』 accepted the request, saying…

Several other presences surfaced, then another voice echoed in the dark. “Hohoho...for the disinherited crown prince to wish for the death of the eastern hero. How…
