Chapter 18:Orham Baronate
The carriage rolled steadily forward along a single road lane.Guards of various beast-kin lined both sides of the road, standing at regular intervals—watchful, unmoving, their vigilance unbroken as the carriage passed between them.It bypassed the checkpoint swiftly before coming to a halt at a three-way intersection.Each lane was systematically constructed, its purpose clearly marked by signboards placed near the lane lines.The path to the right bore the mark "Guild."The one to the left read "Main Gate."And the road stretching straight ahead was labeled "Commoners' Ground."The coachman gently slid aside the small rectangular window behind him and spoke respectfully."Sir, shall I take the usual Guild route, then proceed through the V.I.P passage to reach the mansion?""No…" Elfrez replied after a brief pause. "Take the Commoners' Zone."There was a faint hint of indulgence in his tone."I don't know when I'll be able to roam freely again," he continued. "So I'll give our guests
Chapter 17: Welcome to Capital
Marfin popped his head out through the carriage window.Fresh air rushed in from all sides, ruffling his hair as his raccoon-like ears twitched instinctively beneath the sudden breeze.Far ahead, dominating his line of sight, rose a towering gate—systematically reinforced by stone-like walls that stretched wide and unyielding. Everything beyond them lay hidden, wrapped in secrecy. Yet even so, a lone clock tower pierced the skyline, visible above the fortress as if silently watching all who approached.Along the ramparts of the fortress, numerous beast-kin stood poised, bows drawn and arrows nocked, their silhouettes rigid against the stone. Every movement, every hardened gaze was trained outward—alert to the slightest threat that might endanger the city sheltered behind those walls."It's impressive…"Marfin silently praised the city's systematic defensive arteries, his gaze lingering on the towering walls and vigilant ramparts for several seconds longer than necessary.Then he shi
Chapter 16:A long Journey
"The necklace is safe—securely packed with me.""That's the top priority. No matter what happens, we can't lose it… or I don't even want to imagine what Rabetina would do this time.""Do you think she'd go on strike again? She's been oddly well-behaved these days, hasn't she?""That could just be her silence before the storm…" The voices lingered, etching themselves into Marfin's ears as his consciousness slowly surfaced.His eyelids fluttered open, greeted by a ceiling that swayed ever so slightly.At a single glance anyone could infer it as a well furnished and well crafted art. Soon, he could feel the faint tremor traveling through his body following by the warm sunlight brushing across his face, stealing his attention.His wandering eyes finally caught the glimpse of the moving scenerio outside. It was only then, as the pieces quietly fell into place, that he realized...He was inside a carriage.The firm weight resting on his lap confirmed it further. Mirai lay there, fast as
Chapter 15: Nirvana Grade-potion
"Saved you?"Eldrin muttered the words under his breath, his eyes snapping to Marfin at once. Disbelief rose unfiltered across his face."This peepsqueak?"He turned back to Elfrez while tilting his head slightly."You're not playing some kind of joke on me… are you?""Why would I joke about that?" Elfrez shot back."W-well…" Eldrin hesitated, rubbing the back of his neck. "If you're serious, then I don't even know how to feel about it. A raccoon-kin fending off threats that even Mr. Ryden couldn't finish?"Elfrez let out a sharp laugh."Hah! Did you even take any of the lessons I taught you seriously, Eldrin?"He leaned forward slightly, eyes narrowing with intent."Never judge anyone by their appearance.""R-right…" Eldrin let out a light sigh before turning to Marfin once more.Realizing the rudeness that had slipped from him earlier, he bowed shallowly."My apologies. It was simply… an impossible feat to imagine. Thank you for lending your hand to the President.""I only hope yo
Chapter 14: Eldrin Eniyon
Dawn's light spilled across the vast forest, painting its edges in pale gold.At the farthest outskirts, Marfin walked in silence beside Elfrez and Ryden.Mirai was tied to his back with a soft cloth, sleeping peacefully,her cheek pressed against his shoulder as a thin line of drool escaped her lips. As they pressed on, Ryden studied Marfin from the corner of his eye, his steps never slowing."You look tired. I can carry her for you."He said it as he extended his single hand.Marfin slapped it away."No need. I can carry her forever if I have to."He glanced sideways, rolling his eyes. "Besides, I wouldn't hand my sister to a creep—someone who'd probably slice her head off the moment his so-called duty demanded it." His tone dripped with sarcasm."You keep clinging to the same mistake," Ryden replied with a low hum. "Let it go already.""If it bothers you that much," Marfin shot back, "maybe you shouldn't have pointed that sword at us in the first place. You could've tried having a
Chapter 13: A calculated Gamble
Marfin stared at Elfrez for a few seconds, then tilted his head toward Ryden, who was wiping away his saliva, a deep frown stretched across his face.'They don't… remember.'The realization drew a deeper crease between Marfin's brows. His fingers tightened around Faceless as he studied the mask for a few seconds longer before lifting his gaze."It's fine… I have a rough idea of it, so there's no need to put it on right now," he said, offering the mask back to Elfrez."Keep it. It's your compensation," Elfrez replied with a light chuckle. "Weren't you concerned about your safety and secrecy?""Ah… so you're telling me to stay in disguise so no one recognizes me?" Marfin asked, tilting his head to the side."If you could remain disguised at all times, that would be even better for you," Elfrez said calmly. "After all, no one would ever learn your true identity. However…" His gaze sharpened slightly. "That kind of life would take a heavy toll on you, wouldn't it?"'Would it?' Marfin lamp
