079 Long-Distance Judgment
A deafening rumble tore through the tranquility of the Thousand Monster Forest. The ground quaked violently beneath the march of a hundred thousand steel-clad boots.The Barbor Kingdom's army moved like a colossal iron dragon, crawling forward with slow, inevitable dread. The stench of stale sweat, rust, and thick, suffocating bloodlust poisoned the forest's pristine air.Barely a few kilometers past the treeline, they had already lost two hundred soldiers to a barrage of vicious monster attacks.Yet, the massive formation's advance didn't slow in the slightest. If anything, the tempo of their march only grew faster and more aggressive by the minute.Heavily armed soldiers weren't the only terror they brought with them. Giant beasts had been forced to march at the vanguard and along the flanks.Hundreds of Rank C monsters snarled wildly. Dozens of Rank B monsters dripped venomous saliva onto the soil. And over a dozen Rank A monsters trudged forward with terrifying, hollow gazes.Fast
078 The King's Decree
A stack of parchment shifted softly, the faint rustle serving as the only sound in the dead quiet of the royal study.Krai spun his quill lazily between his fingers. If he weren't actively trying to dodge a reputation as a king who ran from his responsibilities, he would have long since curled up in his soft, warm bed.Off to the side, Evelyn organized documents with precise, calculated movements, while Shizuku brewed a pot of tea that filled the room with a nerve-soothing aroma.Agnes’s absence made the study feel just a little emptier than usual. She was still out there somewhere, tracking the faded trail of the previous Chaos Master, dumping the brunt of their domestic duties onto the remaining three.'Haa… this political nonsense is practically sucking my soul away,' Krai thought, staring blankly at the kingdom's progress report on his desk.Suddenly, the rhythmic spinning of his quill stopped.Krai rose from his grand chair. Without a word, he walked over to the massive glass win
077 The Blood Crown and the Countdown
The air inside the Barbar Kingdom's throne room was heavy, reeking of rusted iron. At the far end of the hall, flanked by towering black stone pillars, King Barbor slouched against his throne. His face was as impassive as carved stone, his eyes staring downward without a single spark of human warmth.At the foot of the dais, a soldier lay sprawled across the red carpet. Both of his legs had been crushed. His breaths came in desperate, ragged wheezes as his fingers clawed at the carpet's threads in a futile attempt to anchor himself against the agonizing pain."You..." King Barbor's voice echoed slowly, bouncing off the cold stone walls. "...dare to return in such a state?"The soldier looked up, his face deathly pale and slick with cold sweat. "Your Majesty... I—""Enough."The single, barked word choked the soldier into silence. King Barbor didn't shift his posture. He merely rolled his eyes slowly toward the right side of the room, fixing a piercing gaze on the court mage standing w
076 A Warm Grasp Behind the Curtains
Krai’s eyelids fluttered open, allowing a sliver of golden light from the gap in the curtains to touch his pupils. No emotion rippled through his gaze; it held only a stillness as cold as a frozen lake. His thoughts were already wandering far beyond the borders of his territory.'So that's how it is. The Barbarian Kingdom,' Krai thought, his fingertips rhythmically tapping against the silk sheets. 'What an irritating neighbor. I've heard enough about how they treat outsiders like livestock. A rotten existence like that will only become a thorn in my side if left alone for too long. It would be better to just raze it to the ground.' The soft creak of the wooden floorboards shattered his reverie. The silhouette of a girl in a black-and-white maid uniform slipped closer to the bed."Master~"Her voice was low, sweet, and heavy with a deliberate temptation meant solely for Krai’s ears. Shizuku tilted her head just a fraction, letting strands of her hair fall to frame her collarbone.Krai
075 The Price of Arrogance
*Slash!*A geyser of high-pressure blood erupted from the severed neck, drenching Stromveil's white stone floor like a deep crimson fountain.The stout man’s head tumbled down, landing with a heavy thud before rolling slowly to a stop against the tip of his comrade’s boot.All the color drained from the faces of the remaining Barbar Kingdom envoys in an instant. Their mouths hung agape, their vocal cords completely paralyzed as they witnessed the gruesome end of their comrade in a matter of seconds.The silence didn't last. From atop the walls, from behind the stone pillars, and out of the tree shadows, dozens of figures descended.Their dark green cloaks billowed briefly before they touched the ground in near-absolute silence. Jagged arrowheads and the tips of drawn blades now tightly boxed in the surviving envoys. The air grew incredibly heavy, thick with the suffocating, murderous aura of the elite elven warriors."What the hell is this?!" one of the envoys shrieked, his voice crac
074 Uninvited Guests at the Gates of Stromveil
The wind swept past the white stone gates of the Stromveil Kingdom, carrying the crisp scent of pine.But this morning, that clean air was tainted by the stench of cheap liquor, sour sweat, and the damp musk of animal hides. A troop of envoys from the Barbarian Kingdom stood squarely in the main courtyard, hands on their hips. Their wild eyes darted around, like predators freshly unleashed into a pasture.Huda pulled his cloak a little tighter. As the leader of the elven race, he stepped forward, parting the ranks of the guards. He lowered his head in a slow, measured bow, a deliberate act of submission performed solely for the sake of diplomatic courtesy."Welcome to the Stromveil Kingdom," Huda's voice was calm and even, cutting through the restless scuffling of the envoys' mud-caked boots. "My name is Huda. I will be your guide during your stay here."The leader of the barbarian delegation, a stout, barrel-chested man with a nasty scar jagged across his jaw, gave a low snort. His m
