"So the two of you went out together to handle palace matters, a man decided to follow you, and for some reason, tried to kill you."

"That sums it up pretty well."

"And you don't know who he was."

"No."

"Or who sent him?"

"No, Harun."

"Or why?"

I took a sip.

"Harun, I would really appreciate it if you stopped organizing my problems like that. They seem bigger and worse when you put them all together."

He released a long sigh.

"Because apparently they are..."

Unfortunately, there was

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 57 — A Man Named Rashid

    Elara Veyne"So the two of you went out together to handle palace matters, a man decided to follow you, and for some reason, tried to kill you.""That sums it up pretty well.""And you don't know who he was.""No.""Or who sent him?""No, Harun.""Or why?"I took a sip."Harun, I would really appreciate it if you stopped organizing my problems like that. They seem bigger and worse when you put them all together."He released a long sigh."Because apparently they are..."Unfortunately, there was no argument against that.Harun drank some of his own tea, thoughtful."What did this man look like?"This time, I answered without lying, describing what I remembered.The simple clothes, the human appearance that didn't entirely fit Namarra, the knife.The way he had followed me through several streets without ever trying to speak to me.Harun continued, asking more specific questions.Height, accent. Whether the man had any marks, how he walked.Kian interrupted twice, adding details I hadn'

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 56 — A Convenient Lie

    Elara Veyne"So tell me, Elara. What exactly did you do to make someone decide they needed to kill you?"Harun's question settled in the middle of the table along with the scent of freshly poured tea.I stared at the dark liquid inside my cup.It was an excellent question.The problem was that the full answer would probably begin with I'm secretly treating the Crown Prince of Azhareth in exchange for access to the Nythrium mines and end with something involving poisoning, hidden documents, a suspicious queen, and a feral lupine who had apparently developed the habit of trying to kill anyone who threatened me.Maybe that was too much information to accompany tea.I lifted my eyes to Harun, and he was waiting.Kian remained seated beside me, silent.I could tell him the truth.Harun already knew parts of me that almost no one else in this kingdom knew. He knew about Edda, knew I had contacts in Aldervane, knew I wasn't exactly the innocent servant I pretended to be inside the palace.Bu

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 55 — Too Many Questions

    Elara Veyne“Yes.”That was strange.From what little I had seen of their relationship, Mireya didn’t seem like the kind of person who showed up in Kian’s chambers before dawn to make casual conversation.“What did she want?”Kian rested his forearms on his legs and leaned slightly forward.“She knew you were leaving.”“But you told the household I was taking the day off, right?”“Yes... but that wasn’t what concerned me.”I stayed quiet.His eyes met mine.“She said people are asking questions about my recovery.”My stomach turned cold.Kian continued.“And some of them have already connected you to it.”For a moment, I wasn’t sure I had understood him correctly.“They connected your recovery to me?”“Yes.”“How?”“She didn’t explain.”Tension returned to my shoulders, and before I realized it, I had turned my entire body toward Kian.Mireya...The Queen knew I was connected to Kian’s recovery.How much did she know?Did she know about the treatments?My blessing?The residue?What I

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 54 — Guard Dog

    Elara VeyneI stared at the letter for far too long.The words remained there, perfectly still, as though they hadn’t just torn something apart inside me.Another girl.Another... child.Another girl leaving through the back of the Church of the First Light, believing she had been chosen for a better life.I closed my eyes for a moment and forced air into my lungs.Enough.I could cry later.I could spend the entire night wondering what had happened to the girl with the braids, how many times she had begged for help, and whether there was anything I could have done differently.But there was another girl now.And this one, I could still save.That thought was enough to make something inside me fall back into place.I wiped my face, rubbing the tears away harder than necessary.I hadn’t wanted Harun to see that.Much less Kian.Maybe I should have opened the letter somewhere else. In a closed room, perhaps, alone.Far away from anyone who could watch me completely lose control because o

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 53 — Edda's Letter

    Elara Veyne"It doesn’t matter right now...""It matters quite a lot to me. He’s inside my house.""You have enough illegal things hidden in here to lose the right to be picky about visitors."Harun narrowed his eyes."And what if he tells someone?"I looked at Kian.Kian looked at me.It was one of those moments when I realized I probably should have thought more carefully before bringing a prince into a clandestine operation."He won’t."Harun didn’t look convinced."Are you sure?""I am."Kian remained silent, which didn’t help at all."He can sit over there and pretend he didn’t see anything," I said. "You can keep pretending this is a perfectly respectable shop. Everyone leaves happy."Harun studied me for a few seconds.Then he stepped closer and grabbed my arm to pull me discreetly aside.Kian moved, taking a step closer. Harun noticed when he did it, and so did I.I looked at Kian."It’s fine."He stopped.Harun slowly released my arm."I don’t even want to know what that was.

  • I Returned to Kill Monsters, and Created the Worst One   Chapter 52 — What Did You Bring?

    Elara VeyneIt took me a little longer than I would have liked to start breathing normally again.Kian remained standing in front of me, too quiet even by his standards, while I stayed leaning against the wall, trying to convince my lungs that there was no longer anyone running after us with a knife.At least, I hoped there wasn’t.I looked toward the street we had just come through. There was no sign of the man, no guards, and no sign of the small crowd that had begun gathering near the warehouses.Great.One catastrophe at a time.I looked back at Kian.Now that my heart was beginning to give up on its attempt to escape through my chest, I managed to observe him more closely.He really was dressed like an ordinary commoner.No royal clothes, ornaments, or anything that could easily reveal who he was. Just a long, dark, simple tunic, with light fabric over his shoulders and another piece wrapped around his head, covering his hair and the lower half of his face. If I didn’t know him,
