Mariax may not have thought so, but so far, she had been treated quite politely. That was because she had proven to be highly effective as a painkiller. With no way to identify the cause of the curse’s calming, the plan was to keep her nearby and gradually uncover the truth. But Gart was saying he would tear her apart right now, painkiller or not, to see what was inside. It would result in losing the painkiller with nothing gained. A very high probability. It was the first lead in a long time. No one…-

Ah, right. Gart nodded briefly. “I had forgotten my hometown.” A distant past rose to mind. Though a hundred years had passed, the image of Paradise remained vividly clear. The god had been beautiful. With gentle, clear eyes, she wore the face of a benevolent woman and smiled innocently like a child. But it wasn’t mere beauty that had allowed her to rule over humans. All beings on the continent were once believed to have been part of a single divine entity. So when people met someone they felt…

As the men confidently delivered their story with dramatic flair, Mariax couldn’t help but finally show a reaction. A strange glint flickered across her clear eyes. Eight years old. Gart at eight… She couldn’t picture his childhood in the slightest. He seemed like someone who had been born with a sturdy body and immense power from the very start. “The god known as ‘Paradise’ was Anir’s very first sacrifice!” “She had the power to enthrall all living beings. It’s said she…

Every table was filled to the brim with plates, to the point where there wasn’t even room to place an extra glass. Hard bread with butter, stew, strong liquor, grilled meat, stir-fried meat, steamed meat, minced meat… Unlike the diverse flavors and aromas of continental cuisine, which used a wide range of spices, vegetables, and fruits, food in the north was incredibly simple. But as a region that lived for meat, their mastery of meat dishes was unparalleled. The golden-brown grilled meat glistened…

Their eyes met. The moment Gart’s brow furrowed ever so slightly, a fierce pressure surged forward. It was a murderous aura so intense that even hardened warriors instinctively stepped back. Mariax trembled, unable to breathe properly. As he stared coldly at her, he suddenly turned on his heel. Without looking back once, he walked through the castle gate and disappeared. Just as Mariax was about to collapse from her legs giving out, Oze swiftly appeared and supported her from behind. “Goodness,…

Darkness had settled over the land. Mariax was still among the humans. No one paid much attention to who she was or why she was there. The recent events had left everything so chaotic that no one had the luxury to question her presence. The Faldoa sisters, who had brought Mariax here, had flown off cursing furiously after the yak god left, shouting that they’d find those bastards and hack them into 188 pieces each. A group had followed in their wake, yelling that the “mad dogs have been unleashed,…

“Ha, this isn’t something we do for just anyone. Consider yourself lucky today.” “Wanna play hunting game? We drop you, and see who catches you first.” “We only mess up once out of ten times. And even that one time, it was ‘cause we were drunk, so we’re fine now. Probably.” “The one who fell didn’t die either. Though their memory’s a little fuzzy now… but they smile more and have a sunnier outlook.” They were mad. Truly, utterly insane. Mariax shook her head with all…

Three Thousandth shook off his shock and began closely examining the flower before him—the number of petals, the shape of its stem and leaves, its fragrance, its color… It was a very familiar flower. He knew the only place where it bloomed. The Forest of Ulterra. A flower that only bloomed in the forest where the divine tree gifted by the great Creator Goddess—the one and only Mother—stood. Three Thousandth slumped onto the sofa. His mind overflowed with thoughts about Mariax. The cool beauty…

After that, Three Thousandth continued to ask only the kinds of questions that, by Mariax’s standards, seemed utterly pointless. Starting from her name, age, what her parents did, what her home address was, how much property she owned… Of course, he didn’t use the words “home address” or “property” verbatim, but the meaning was essentially the same. This is… kind of weird. It didn’t feel like research. More like… more like… “Lady Mariax, what do you think of our…

But not a single one succeeded. Most ended up crawling away on all fours, sobbing, overwhelmed by Gart's murderous aura. And that’s just the women. When someone, suspecting Gart’s preferences, put the most handsome man on the continent in his bed, the man fainted on the spot and had to be carried out by the servants—his eyes rolled back, drooling in disgrace. Having lived far longer than others, Gart had met thousands of gods and thousands of monsters. Those superior to humans or other races,…
