      by Sienna NMRJKM Side Story Chapter 5 As I cried louder in my sorrow, I could feel Carlothian getting restless. Yeah. You should be flustered. You have no idea how ridiculous my day has been. As I sniffled and looked to the side, I saw Dorothy. "Ah... I'm exhausted." "Ah, so what’s going on with you two?!" I shouted back. "First, sit down, Ariadeline." Dorothy said calmly. I sniffled and sat down with Carlothian. I held his hand tightly. He’s my husband. Seeing the expression on my face, Dorothy looked…

      by Sienna "No one knows what will happen once we go in." "I know." "......" Luciano had no response. Well, he must have a lot on his mind. I decided to leave him be and looked at Carlothian. "I can’t shake the feeling that we were lured here." Carlothian agreed. "It definitely feels like they wanted us to come." The curses that appeared on the way to the Emperor's palace were scattered like breadcrumbs in a fairy tale. "We need to be careful." "......I’m most worried about you." "I feel the same…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Side Story Chapter 2 Carlothian looked at Luciano, who was now the emperor, with a sideways glance. The Emperor, Luciano said. "Just wipe them out." "Are you really going to handle politics like that?" "Then should we just let those who are looking to take advantage of the Empire’s current weakness go unchecked?" "Still, an emperor should be able to see the bigger picture." Luciano glanced off into the distance for a moment. Carlothian couldn’t even manage a hollow laugh and immediately…

      by Sienna Ariadeline realized too late. It was clearly trying to take over her body. The one said to be shaped by the will of the gods. It had been crouching and waiting all this time to seize her body. But then. "AAH-!" As the darkness consumed him, his groans grew louder. Ariadeline did not approach. No, she couldn't approach. "Don’t come!" He shouted. He was struggling to hold onto the darkness that had swallowed him. "No, that’s not right..." She muttered helplessly. "You wanted me...!" Ariadeline…

      by Sienna   As my blood poured out and stained him black, he gradually began to find his color again. Beneath the red hue, his pale skin was visible. I sang while vomiting blood. I widened the wound in my pierced chest even more. Why does my wound heal with the song? Why? Why? Why isn’t your wound healing? "Stop, stop! Stop, Ariadeline!" Luciano ran towards me. He forced my hands, which were widening the wound, to stop. He took the sword from my hands. I did not stop singing. Even as my throat felt like it…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Side Story Chapter 4 "...Yes, I think so." "I’m glad to see you both happy." Ariadeline replied excitedly. "Of course! We promised to go to the villa after the season changes!" "Oh my, where to?" "Oh, it’s a place by the sea..." Ariadeline let go of Carlothian’s arm and leaned towards Dorothea, starting to speak enthusiastically. Carlothian gently followed the ends of her softly cascading blonde hair with his eyes. Ah, I see. Now, I’m looking at you with those eyes too. And. "What…

      by Sienna After confirming that he had lost consciousness, Ariadeline opened her mouth. A beautiful song flowed out. A song that illuminated the darkness and healed wounds. Thanks to that song, the penetrating wound on Luciano's abdomen slowly began to heal. "He's fainted." The healing was complete. However, since he had fainted from blood loss, it would take some time for him to regain consciousness. As Ariadeline spoke, Carlothian glanced at her once. And then... Clang, bang! In an instant, he forcefully…

      by Sienna There was only darkness. Carlothian was floating alone in that darkness. He felt nothing. No temperature, no sensation. But his mind was filled with thoughts of her. Ah, in the end, he was able to protect her. He would cry a lot, but still. He slowly opened his eyes. Even when he opened them, it felt like he hadn’t. All he could see was darkness. Soon, from within the thick darkness, something began to rise before his eyes. Was it like seeing a mirage? But what appeared before him was not the path…

      by Sienna As we walked towards the emperor's palace, we surveyed our surroundings. The scenery was bizarre, but so far, nothing dangerous had occurred. Carlothian stayed close behind me. "Just in case, stick close." "You're not worried about me at all." The Crown Prince, who might soon become the most esteemed person in the empire, said this. Carlothian didn’t even scoff. "Your Highness, you should take care of yourself." "That’s disrespectful." "Yes, Your Majesty, the next emperor." As I chuckled and…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Side Story Chapter 3 After finishing the hunting festival, the night banquet that followed. Contrary to his intention to mingle moderately, he became the winner of the hunting festival. "I didn’t know the nobles were this bad at hunting." For the record, he was also a noble. After all, how could someone who survived the battlefield compare to a noble leisurely catching rabbits in the capital? His plan to return to the mansion immediately after the hunting festival was also dashed due to the…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Epilogue Chapter 1 The fact that Carlothian had come back to life turned the royal family upside down. No, rather than saying the royal family was turned upside down, it would be more accurate to say that Luciano and Dorothea were thrown off balance. "So, he just came back to life?" At that, I looked at Carlothian. He crossed his arms and said, "Yes." Hmm, it seemed he wasn't inclined to explain further. Since the person who had come back to life was keeping quiet, I just smiled and shrugged it…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Side Story Chapter 1 The seasons have changed. The palace staff of the imperial palace has been sufficiently replenished, and the empire is beginning to stabilize once again. Of course, my husband has had a lot of hardships in the meantime. "The neighboring kingdom caused some trouble at the border." "So what did you do?" "…I sent them away." "Oh, you sent them to hell. Good job." Carlothian seemed to be trying not to tell me any harsh stories, but I understood perfectly. He made a troubled…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Epilogue Chapter 2 Confidently lifting my chin, I entered and sat down on the sofa. "Bring out the most expensive fabric, all of it!" "Yes!" At my words, the staff began to move busily. I hummed a tune while leaning against the arm of the Carlothian sitting next to me. Oh, look at how firm it is. "How about this navy blue? Black is nice too, but it's too dull. Ah, this one has a nice sheen and should be good." As I diligently chose the fabric, he slightly furrowed his brow and picked the navy…

      by Sienna NMRJKM Chapter 141 Carlothian held the sword. The one who made this happen. He had known it all along. If he had suspected the Emperor from the beginning, if he hadn't acted foolishly, she could have been saved. Such an event wouldn't have happened. Perhaps she could have gently taken his hand by now. Arriving at the Imperial Palace with his sword drawn, he looked at the soldiers who tried to stop him with empty, hollow eyes. The tip of the sword aimed at him looked dull. He felt no fear. Only the…

      by Sienna   He killed dozens. The golden floor was stained with blood. He slashed and slashed until the blood flowed beneath his black hair. I covered my face with outstretched hands. It was overwhelming to bear the flood of tears. "Stop……!" He was trying to abandon himself. To escape a world without me, he was willing to give up his life. Eventually, he arrived in a vast room and faced a man wearing a golden crown. Having etched deeper into his heart hatred, and deeper still into resignation, he…

      by Sienna At those words, I blinked. Ah, well. That is true. If it’s the blood of those with divine power, I should at least gather some of it; if only my blood is effective, I would have to struggle alone for many days to collect it. "……But that’s the only method we have." "No." "Huh?" "No." Carlothian looked down at me with a serious expression. Shadows fell across his face. "I don’t want you to get hurt." "Uh..." That’s true. Of course, he wouldn’t want that. Thinking about it, if it were…
