‘When did the feeling of loneliness become an excuse for love?’ Eryn thought as she stared at the unfamiliar ceiling. After Claude killed the King of Sistina in the heat of the moment, the two of them escaped from the castle and left the capital. With his unstoppable strikes that could sever flesh and magic,
Prince Oswald Gallon de la Sistina – the next in line for the crown. He strove to follow in the footsteps of his father, King Reginald. As such, he became every bit the powerful warrior and military leader of Sistina, pursuing the shadow of the great unifier. Chancellor Lamps Magellan – an Electi summoned by
The next moments completely derailed the trajectory of Eryn’s fate up to this point. One guard charged forward, sneering at Claude’s glowing eyes. But then, Claude simply slashed horizontally with the sword in his grip. It looked like he missed at first, but then, the upper half of the guard’s body split off and fell

At first, only a few of us were planning to come, but one look around had us retreating back to call for reinforcements.

An alarm rang out across Yakuman the moment a portal opened up near its borders. The city itself was equipped with a holy barrier that guarded against magic from the outside, so portals could not be directly cast into the area.
