“Thud, thud, thud...”
A series of hurried footsteps echoed, occasionally accompanied by the sound of branches snapping with a “crack, crack” in the forest outside Sedona City.
Chris took the War Wolves as they navigated through the woods. They had received news of an intruder around four in the morning.
Aiden had arranged for sentries and scouts to be positioned dozens of kilometers away from their territory. Last night, the sentry sp...

"Hehehe~" An Akiyama giggled happily, her eyes glowing as she stared at the food in front of her.
"And here's your lunchbox for noon, the same as Tsuki-chan and An-chan's. Is that alright?" Mrs. Akiyama pulled out three lunchboxes.
One small white box, one large pink box, and one large blue box.
"I've always wanted to try bringing a lunchbox. I'll be counting on you for future meals, Mrs. Akiyama." Shuichi Chiba said with a smile, without being overly formal.<...

Watching the two twin sisters leave, Shuichi Chiba stroked his chin, lost in thought, and began analyzing Sayuki Ogawa's behavior.
From their interactions over the past few days, it was clear that Sayuki Ogawa had a dominant personality, always wanting to take the upper hand in every situation.
Yes, that kind of meaning.
Shuichi Chiba strongly suspected that even in certain... intimate matters, Sayuki Ogawa liked to be on top, taking the lead...

"It’s... similar to what’s happening right now, but it only requires a little..." Fumika’s face was bright red, the words almost too much for her to say. Speaking them out loud seemed to take every ounce of her courage.
She then turned around and pushed Chiba on the bed and put her lips on his to escape from the embarrassment to say it. Chiba followed her action and kissed her back while Fumika hands work on Chiba’s pants. She opened it and took out the cock and...

Casually throwing together some breakfast, Shuichi Chiba didn't have to wait long before Fumika Ogawa came over on her own.
Just as Shuichi was about to send a message, he was pleasantly surprised. After all, Fumika was incredibly shy, and he had thought that after what happened last time, she would be too embarrassed to see him. For her to come over on her own now was quite rare.
"I was just thinking whether Fumika-san would come today. This is great."

"Of course, I'm against it. If you compare the forest and here, the answer is obvious, right? I don't want to risk my life based on your uncertain prediction. I don’t see the need to leave this city and face the same dangers as yesterday."
Although there was a glimmer of hope, it was as expected. Lee Yun-Jung cast her vote against, bringing the count to one vote for and one against. I felt a bit uneasy, but decided to wait and see how things would unfold.

"Crack, crack..."
The sound of brittle tree branches breaking became increasingly frequent and louder, carrying far into the quiet night sky.
Freya and Bella were leading the way. Strategy? Not needed; in the face of absolute strength, all small tricks are meaningless.
"Who goes there?"
A knight on guard at night suddenly looked up into the darkness, and the next second, he saw a pair of orange eyes and a large sword reflecti...

The next morning had dawned. After speaking with An Hyun at dawn, I was able to return to my room and switch off from night duty and nursing shifts. Even though I insisted that it was fine, that they could sleep longer, they stubbornly pushed me out of the way, leaving me no choice. Since things had turned out this way, I lay down in a corner of the living room with the intent to close my eyes for a short while, but it seemed I had fallen into a deep sleep. I decided to reflect a little on th...

The night deepened, with dark clouds drifting across the sky, and midnight was approaching.
“Crack, crack…”
“Rustle, rustle…”
The sound of dry branches snapping underfoot echoed through the forest, as robust figures moved swiftly among the trees, their movements indicating they were well accustomed to the wilderness.
“Stop.”
A somewhat alluring voice rang out as Bella emerged from behind the s...

The sound of a hundred horses' hooves echoed as Baron Adam looked back at his impressive cavalry. His face was filled with pride and arrogance.
He hadn't expected that his father, Count George, would value him so highly. To send a hundred knights, especially considering these were the Count’s knights—not like the two hundred horse thieves of Baron Omar.
The knights of Baron Omar were essentially just strong...

Lucas exhaled a warm breath, tugging at his collar as he gazed out the window at the clear blue sky, lost in thought. "The weather is getting colder. It seems like the cold front from the Forbidden Mountains is moving in."
"Young Master, according to last year’s records, there's only about five or six days left before the first snow of winter." Nicole said softly as she poured him a cup of hot tea.
"I see." Lucas furrowed his brow,...

After the meeting ended, I immediately checked on An Sol under An Hyun's guidance. Seeing her fast asleep on a single blanket, breathing softly, made me feel sympathy. I placed my hand on her forehead to check her condition and, as expected, her magical energy was in disarray. Although it wasn’t beyond repair and would naturally return to its original state after some time, I decided to help.
"It’s probably better if someone stays with An Sol to watch over her during the ...

When bedtime came and the promised fresh side dishes still hadn't arrived, Shuichi Chiba thought that Sayuki Ogawa might be sulking and refused to deliver them. He decided to wash up and head to bed early.
His hormones from the previous day had mostly subsided, and his sleep was much better. However, he still dreamed about white clouds and the Sumida River. The sensation of the white clouds became increasingly vivid, wrapping around his body in a more detailed and encompassin...

That evening, in the cramped Akiyama household, the mother and her two daughters were busy packing up some personal belongings.
Although the moving company offered a full packing and unpacking service, there were always certain things that were either too private to be seen by others or important enough to be carried by hand.
“Mom, what’s in this big box? Do we need to take it ourselves?” An Akiyama, having finished her own tasks, asked curiously ...

It was unclear how much time had passed before Fumika Ogawa, covering her face, fled from Shuichi Chiba's bedroom. As soon as she reached downstairs, she bumped right into her younger sister.
"S-Sayuki?"
"What's the rush? Your face is so red. What exactly were you doing upstairs?" Sayuki Ogawa teased with a knowing smile.
"N-nothing really..." Fumika tried to deny it, but her attempt at lying was so obvious that no one would believe her.

A pizza shop's business was booming every day, especially after more merchants from Sedona City started coming around. Many people were eager to try this strange-sounding dish.
After all, "pizza" was a word that no one had heard of in this era, and Lucas was the first to call it that, piquing everyone's curiosity.
"Table 5, one large pizza." A pizza shop staff member softly called as she passed a slip of paper through the window to the kitchen. "Elisa, here's...

"Old man, are you feeling alright? What nonsense are you talking about?" Hal stared wide-eyed at him.
"Maybe..." Peter sighed and turned to look at the distant figure walking away. Had he just been lonely for too long?
"Come on, don’t scare me like that." Hal let out a sigh of relief. He’d been working with this old man for years, always relying on Peter's wisdom to secure their bounties.
Peter shook his head. He really did feel a bit tir...

I don't know how much time has passed. Fumika Ogawa was panting as she lifted her head, revealing a flushed face.
Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were now completely dazed, exuding a seductive charm. Even a casual glance was incredibly enticing.
Her allure seemed to have intensified, as if her full charm had been awakened.
Shuichi Chiba was also slightly out of breath. He licked his lips, savoring the memory of the recent "treatment" process...

Fumika’s hands were very soft, and compared to some old traditional Japanese medicine practitioners who could almost crush bones, her strength was much gentler.
But fortunately, Shuichi Chiba was already quite thin and frail, so the masseuse didn't need much effort to penetrate his muscles. She could easily feel his tendons and joints.
"You are a bit stiff, Chiba-kun. You should move around more often. Massage alone isn’t enough. Maybe later you can ask S...

After meditating for a while Chiba reached an epiphany. At this moment, Shuichi Chiba, who was suffering from a bad reputation, also felt a bit of regret. He had been impulsive just now, carried away by the moment.
However, it wasn’t that he thought it was too much to do to a young girl—after all, that girl's characteristics were known, and this was what Tsuki Akiyama had anticipated.
The impulsive part was more about the potential trouble if it had turne...

Shuichi Chiba sighed and said earnestly, "I remember you had excellent grades? If you become a significant figure in Tokyo in the future, I might be interested in adjusting to that."
This obvious tone of concern and advice made Tsuki Akiyama's heart flutter, and her gaze softened.
But soon, she started feeling a bit defiant. They're the same age, so why did he have to talk to her in such a condescending, elder-like way? It was infuriating.

Tsuki Akiyama rubbed her forehead, gritting her teeth as he said, “That guy’s intention is definitely aimed at my sister; he definitely means no good.”
“Hmm…” Mrs. Akiyama tilted her head, blinked, then looked at her younger daughter and said casually, “Does An-chan like Chiba-kun? If she does, then it’s fine.”
An Akiyama rubbed her reddened cheeks and shook her head blankly, “I don’t know. I’m hungry and want to eat.”

Just after Ryan left with Liza and his family, people from the other ships began to disembark one after another. They were all from different cities.
Some were merchants, others were commoners, and there were even a few beastkins hiding among them. The good reputation of Sedona City, which spread after it supported Sakura City and eliminated the bandits, made many people naturally fond of Sedona City.
Additionally, with James secretly spreading stories ...
