Ezekiel hugged Ezra all the way back to the hotel. His mind was lost in everything that was revealed to him about the Sorcery and the Diamond Duchy. Silently, he could still hear Ezra's small, muffled sobs that were buried in his shoulder, but he didn't know how to calm her down. When they got to the hotel, he took Ezra down from the carriage and went straight to their room. “We need to talk,” Ezekiel said as he kicked the door behind him shut. He sat Ezra down on the bed and pulled a stool over to sit facing her. With a worried look, Ezekiel tried to see Ezra's drooping face. But he was surprised when he saw the blank look in Ezra's black eyes was much deeper than usual. "Ezra?" he called softly. Ezekiel tried to touch Ezra's cheek, but the woman didn't respond at all. What happened? The worry that made his chest uncomfortabl

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK Ezra was drying her hair when she heard a knock on the door. She pulled a robe over her short nightgown and opened the door. She stared in bewilderment at the three men at her door, who emitted a strong smell of alcohol from their bodies. Heinrich at the back, lowered his head while leaning against the wall, while Ezekiel who looked completely wasted was being held by Zaha. "What are you doing…? Didn't we just drink yesterday?" asked the confused Ezra. "This is Crown Prince Hyacinth's idea," Zaha said flatly. He came forward to carry Ezekiel into the room and laid him on the bed. Meanwhile, Heinrich who was standing up and leaning against the wall had started to limp and sit cross-legged on the floor. His body felt weak and his head is dizzy. But they are surprisingly quiet. "And why are you drinking this much, anyway? Even yesterday they weren't this dru

In front of the hotel, Ezra who felt sleep deprived yawned while covering her mouth with her elbow. Her pose was thuglike, and her eyes felt heavy, but they had to go home today. Heinrich stood next to her, yawning too because her yawning was contagious. His eyes watered and his body felt very uncomfortable. Maybe last night he drank more than Ezekiel. “Ugh… looks like I can't bring you guys home with my ravens. I'm going to get airsick…” When leaving here, he would often take their entourage with his ravens for faster travels, so they only needed 3 to 4 days' trip from the capital. But this time, it felt like he wanted to just lie down in the horse carriage. "Ah!" Ezra shouted quickly. She just realized that everything that happened last night was caused by this man. "You! You should just go home to the West Continent! You are a bad influence on His Highness!”

“Duchess… could you put the box on the table?” Zaha asked when they had reached the living room again. "Please be careful with it." “W-what is this? Is this a dangerous object? W-Would it explode if I did something wrong…” Harriet, who was caught in a panic because of Zaha, then treated it with more care than before, placing it on the centre table in the living room. "You three, go and guard the door," Zaha said to their three teenage children. It wasn't until the three teenagers left that Zaha turned to Harriet who was looking at him worriedly. “W-what…” Harriet was bewildered. It was in her brother's bag and it made Zaha so panicked… but why? “Duchess, how can your brother have the Elixir of Life?!” Zaha asked quickly. “How would I know? I was just as surprised as you are&hell

"I think your conclusion, well, some of it, is the correct one." Liam raised his eyebrows, though his face was still as level and cold as before. "But don't forget that my sister has reason to say everything she says," Heath said, straightening himself after he managed to catch his breath. “What do you mean reason? I know she already understands that once I swallow the stone, I will be cursed with immortality. And one day, she will leave me alone," Liam said. “How could she have the heart to let me live such a life?” “Your Grace, have you forgotten that even now you are already half-immortal?” Heath asked. Liam furrowed his brows even more. "But I can still die." "You're not dead even after 70 years of living without your heart, Your Grace," Heath spoke quickly, almost cutting Liam's words off. The two of the
