Chapter 16 - A Midnight Visitor In a small town located in the eastern province of the Lamperouge kingdom… In a building immersed in complete darkness, voices could be heard. “A request has been received from Sullivan Nommes for the assassination of Dyngir Maxwell.” The presence in the darkness rustled ever so slightly. 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…-

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 13 - Fools Never Stop Walking 【POV : Sullivan Nommes】 “Shit! Shit!! Why, why did this happen!?” My name is Sullivan. I am the crown prince of this kingdom...no, I was. The other day, because of a series of mistakes and misunderstandings, I was disinherited from the royal family and ended up having to marry into the family of some penniless baron in the sticks. I was in the room assigned to me in the Nommes manor, crushing a letter I had just received. The letter was a reply from a friend…

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,…

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…

Today was the day scheduled for the meeting with Baron Nommes and Sullivan. “Nnh..aah..ah..ah...” “Well, it’s not like they’re important guests or anything, they can wait a bit longer.” “Aahn...young master…!” “Hmm...I wonder what kind of face the crown…

Chapter 8 - We Met in a Fairytale 【POV : Selena Nommes】 Today is my wedding day. I was sitting by myself in the bride’s waiting room. There was no one else in the room. The maids left as soon as they finished helping me don the dress. The dress I was wearing was the same one my mother wore for her wedding. Ever since I was a child, I always dreamed of wearing my mother’s dress for my own wedding. Several years after that, my dream had finally come true. My heart, however, was mired in deep, dark…
