He had a delightful smile on his old face, looking pleased with my decision-making up to this point and waiting to see how I would handle this situation. Inwardly grinning with satisfaction and having successfully built up public anticipation, I nodded to the archbishop and continued speaking. But this time, as I started speaking, I subtly activated my title『Ruler of Light』and a gentle warmth started spreading across the hall, with me as the centre of it all. "Archbishop, according to what my…

After the initial whispering and unrest that came from the surprise of Selina's misery and the Archbishop's words, the room fell into a heavy silence as everyone processed the weight of the situation. The whole Greenberg family was almost on their knees in fright, and even the arrogant Selina was like a scared cat at this time, hiding in her mother's arms as she looked at the surrounding situation, which was getting worse and worse. She now finally understood the predicament they were in. That is how…

Noticing the glass in my hand and the warm smile on my face, a gleam flashed past in Selina's eyes, and she got a little elated, thinking that I was finally going to drink the beverage mixed with potion. However, she soon suppressed her excitement and controlled her emotions, turned her head and looked sideways to avoid catching my attention after confirming that I hadn't noticed her change, and acted as if she didn't care whether I would drink it or not. And this was exactly what I wanted, because as…

"Okay, mom, but first please bring your ears here; I have something to say." As I agreed to my mother's eviction order that she gave me, I first gestured for her to bow down to my level with the excuse of telling her something important in her ears, and then quietly I gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Muah!, hehehe... bye bye!" And before she could react, I instantly turned around and started walking away, towards an empty seat located slightly away from my mother's position. "You kid...!" However,…

Despite the fact that my mind was engaged in nefarious plotting, my exterior demeanour remained unchanged as I popped one meat-cheese ball after another into my mouth and slowly savoured their flavour. Do I even need to explain how melty, cheesy, and gooey these balls with a cheese filling that was flavoured with garlic and Italian seasoning were? All of this makes them really tasty! Some well-known dancers and singers from the royal capital, who had been booked especially for this night, took the…

My left ear twitched slightly as soon as the spy charm was activated. It immediately muffled the surrounding voices, and a crisp, melodious sound of a female entered my ear. "I have added her blood to it; now all that's left is to make that boy drink it." When I heard the voice, I immediately recognised it as Stacey's, and the boy she was referring to was me. But I didn't know who she was talking to because after she spoke, there was a silence from the opposite side, as if the other person were in…

Silence! A chill inducing, pin drop silence shrouded the hall. Crack! which was only broken by the splintering sounds of the silver sphere that could not withstand the force of my title for more than a few seconds. Crumble! turning into dust with a clattering sound like sand falling. Looking around the hall, I saw everyone dumbfounded, as if they couldn't believe their eyes. Taking this moment of silence as an opportunity, my father, who wasn't shocked as he knew the result years ago,…

"You all may already be aware that Luke is an early-stage sword apprentice. And I know it is quite surprising, as children are typically not permitted to train until they reach the age of seven." As my father took a pause in the middle, I flared up my aura for all the bigwits standing below to sense my rank. My aura suppressing ring was well hidden below my white gloves, so it wasn't a problem that someone would notice it and make weird assumptions. Woah! As soon as my aura spread, there was…

"Today, on the auspicious day of my son's seventh birthday, I request that everyone bless my son for a happy and prosperous life. Please raise your glasses and take a sip for my son's great future." As if being sentimental about his paternal love for me, my father raised his glass of wine with a proud face and then, under everyone's eyes, emptied the whole glass in one sip. "May my son have a life full of good fortune," he wished as he set the glass down. Watching my father's actions, the people…

As I gazed upon the lovely full moon with its immaculate, cold beauty, sparkling with an endless number of stars in the black night sky of Arcedia, I had the impression that I was in a magical world, which I actually was. Even though I have grown quite accustomed to this world, there are still some things that are always able to catch me off guard, and I simply can not help but become engrossed in the mystery that hides behind them. Turning away my attention from the alluring silver moon that was…
