Chapter 15 - The Lance Maiden is Relatively Easy “Hnn! Haah! Yaah!” “Hoh, phew, hah, mph.” The silver-haired beauty — Shana continued swinging her lance. The lance she was wielding now was a wooden one, so it was not lethal per se, but, if it struck a critical spot, it could still cause bone fractures. Each one of her strikes was meant to defeat the opponent before her, but I dodged all of them relatively casually. “And that’s all, folks!” “Khuh!” I waited for the perfect timing to…-

Chapter 14 - Fools Never Stop Sinking 【POV: Sullivan Nommes】 I followed Zaill deep into the town’s back alleys until we reached a small, isolated bar. “The place may seem small, but they serve very fine wine. It is the sort of place only connoisseurs frequent, so we will be able to drink in peace and quiet.” “Hmm, fine. Not bad at all.” We entered the dimly lit bar and I noticed there weren’t any other clients. A white-haired man was wiping glasses behind the counter. “Have a seat here,…

More precisely, the personal maid of Dyngir Maxwell, next in line to be margrave. “Then, I’m going out. I’ll be back late today.” “Very well.

Chapter 11 - Magic Lance and Magic Sword In a vacant lot in Avalon’s slums, the sounds of clashing metal echoed repeatedly. “Ha, ha, ha, hahaha!! This is so exciting!! Dyngir Maxwell!!” “Glad to hear that! I’m fighting for my life though!!” Just when I thought I had parried the blade coming from the left, she thrust the pole from the right. When I blocked her slashes from above, she attempted a strike from below. Shana’s seamless attacks forced me to take a defensive stance. The lance was…

Chapter 10 - The Night Life is Rife with Peril The largest city in the Maxwell territory was the district capital, Avalon. Located in the heart of the territory, Avalon was a city of two faces. One was its daytime face: as the largest commercial district of the eastern provinces, it housed a market frequented by traders coming and going from the central, northern, and southern provinces. The market was also crowded with merchants from the eastern province, looking to find new goods, and the local people…
