Chapter 33 - The Commander’s Newfound Youth “What the hell just happened…?” I scratched my head, looking at the golden-haired young man standing in front of me. He was the spitting image of Valon Sphinx: the only major difference was that this Valon sported a well-trimmed golden beard. I then moved my eyes to the copper-colored ring the young man wore on his finger. “That ring is a Magic Tool, right? That makes you…turn younger?” “Correct!” The young man — Vert Sphinx puffed out his…

Chapter 34 - The (Brother) Spy Fails After the victory at the third fort, House Sphinx — from a state of nearly assured destruction — gained new life and began its counterattack. More than half of the “Terror Armies” creatures that had invaded the western province had gathered at the fort, while the others were spread throughout the province haphazardly, looking for prey. Now that the enemy’s main force had been taken down, the House Sphinx soldiers, together with the adventurers at my command…

Chapter 38 - The Conspirants’ Secret Meeting 【 POV: Nahib Massab】 “What is going on here! Blast it all!!” Unable to contain my anger, I smashed the glass in my hand onto the table. It was a fine piece of work from overseas, worth at least 10 gold coins — at least before it shattered in a thousand pieces. But I had much more important things to deal with at the moment. Undead creatures called the “Terror Armies” had invaded the Lamperouge Kingdom’s western province from the desert. Being…

Chapter 35 - The (Sister) Spy Scolds Not to toot my own horn, but I could say with confidence that the “Fangs of Steel”, the covert intelligence operations organization at my command, was rather excellent. Their level of prowess was top class, if not the top, not only in the whole Kingdom of Lamperouge, but possibly the entire continent. I was thus very surprised to learn that there was someone capable of avoiding being tracked by such spies, whose skills belonged more to the realm of fantasy than…

Chapter 36 - Aged Warrior After I finished drinking my tea, and Sakuya had finished administering due punishment to her older brother, a visitor arrived at my residence. It was a messenger from House Sphinx: apparently the head of the clan, Vert Sphinx, had something to discuss with me. “Oh? Are you going out commander?” “Yeah, just to House Sphinx.” As I left the residence with Sakuya, one of the adventurers — who was training in the garden — called out to me. Since I wasn’t very pleased…

Chapter 24 - Tears, Resolve, Manliness I went to the room Mist had directed me to and lightly knocked on the door. “Ahem…Naam.” “Please, do not come inside.” As soon as I called her, Naam replied immediately — by denying me entry. I smiled wryly and continued. “Well, what happened just now was an accident, wasn’t it? You shouldn’t mind it too much.” “...........” “I can imagine the embarrassment a girl feels after being seen like that…but if possible, I’d like to speak face…

Chapter 25 - The Last Resort? After that, Naam and I went back to the guest room. Mist, who was sitting inside and sipping on a cup of tea, watched us come in with a mischievous smile. “You’ve made our little girl cry, haven’t you. You bad man.” “I suppose…I should apologize?” “Oh no, I’m very thankful. It’s unhealthy when children do not cry when they need to.” Mist patted Naam — her eyes swollen from crying — on the head, then her expression turned serious. “Well then…what…

Chapter 26 - The Falling Fortress 【POV : Jaar Menfis】 After the fall of the border fort, the “Terror Armies” spread throughout the western province like a wildfire. More than half of the Sphinx domain had fallen into the undead’s hands: after Fort Giza, the first and second defense forts had fallen as well. The only remaining bastion before the capital of Thebes was the third fort. “This place won’t last much longer either…” Vert Sphinx, current leader of the clan, spoke with a heavy…
