            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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’…]]></description>

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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[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…]]></description>

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…]]></description>

Given that he had sensed the attack first and reacted most sensitively to the mermaid’s song, it seemed his hearing was exceptionally sharp. &#8220;Doesn’t seem like there are any more.&#8221; Snow mermaids were a species that traveled in groups.

Cheers.&#8221; Three Thousandth raised an empty glass. “…Wait, this is the welcome-back banquet?” &#8220;He’s settling it with this? This half-hearted toast?&#8221; &#8220;This shamelessly?&#8221; The guests grumbled as they half-heartedly raised their glasses in return. Mariax glanced at Oze across the table.

            <description><![CDATA[Mariax quickly returned to the bed and sat down. Once her thirst had subsided a little, she finally had the leisure to look around. Her eyes were drawn to a wooden ornament hanging on the wall. It was quite large—strange that she hadn’t noticed it before. Something about it looked familiar. Then she remembered: the same pattern had been engraved on the castle gate.…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Mariax turned her gaze to the darkened window. The mountains were hidden by snow clouds. The master of Heimdrix was buried somewhere in that darkness. The inky black windowpane stirred her imagination. She envisioned the man suddenly awakening and calling out, “Mariax.” But the master of Heimdrix had been asleep for over a hundred years, showing no sign of waking. Even though she had…]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Mariax recalled Three Thousandth’s earlier question: “How are you feeling?” Almost unconsciously, she rubbed the back of her neck. Why did it hurt? It felt like she had been struck. Her last memory was of watching the morning sun—but after that, everything was a blank. Did something happen? &#8220;I&#8217;m glad to hear you&#8217;re alright,&#8221; Three Thousandth responded as though she had actually said something,…]]></description>

Three Thousandth placed a hand on Gart’s forehead and wrist, checking his temperature and pulse. His temperature was lower than usual, and his pulse was close to normal. In truth, just looking at his unusually smooth face…]]></description>

And yet, contrary to the feral aura flashing across his face, the man merely sat still, locking eyes with her. There was no escape. Though his massive body remained motionless, his ashen eyes carried all the chaos…]]></description>

She lifted her head. At a distance close enough to feel each other’s breath, their eyes met. Gart gazed deeply into her eyes. Her pink irises glowed transparently, even in the dark. “You have beautiful eyes.” He spoke…]]></description>

Gart let out a refreshing sigh and yanked the dagger out. Blood gushed from the red wound, only to disappear without a trace moments later. Gart took off his blood-soaked top and tore down a fine tapestry hanging on the wall to wipe himself off. To think that stabbing…]]></description>

I thought you&#8217;d died somewhere…” Three Thousandth, who had grown noticeably gaunt over the past year, glared at Gart. His eyes burned with resentment—resentment that the master of the house was never around, always gallivanting elsewhere while leaving him to…]]></description>

The twins, trying hard to wipe the despair off their faces, exchanged glances. They were sharing thoughts. Mariax calmly waited for an answer. “We spilled a bit while cooking.

The stew’s dark brown color wasn’t the issue. Nor was the meat being slightly charred, or the stray hairs floating here and there. What bothered her was the unfamiliar ingredient—thin and long, about the size of a pinky segment. And there wasn’t just one…]]></description>

This surreal scene of him walking alone toward the giant was worthy of the heroic tales she&#8217;d heard since childhood. Could he truly be that great hero? Tears welled up in the old woman’s eyes.
