“Rosebelia, are you okay?”
At Lucas’s question, I who suddenly came to my senses nodded my head.
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
It just so happened that a troupe member who was running away frantically hit my shoulder, and it was none other than Raymon, who has the best physique in the knights, and Ian caught me as I stumbled.
He seemed to have been far away, so when did he get here?
“Raymon, you need to be careful. Rose, is your arm okay? Is it dislocated?”
As Ian straightened me up, Edwin, who had approached unnoticed, lightly shook my arm.
“Dis, dislocated? You don’t think that’s happened to me, do you?”
Raymon, who had collided with me and was standing in his place, widened his eyes.
“I’m fine, Raymon. My shoulder hurts a bit, but my arm is not dislocated or…”

“What? You think your shoulder is dislocated?”
As Edwin made a fuss, Raymon’s face turned pale.
Raymon, despite his robust physique, had quite an innocent side.
“Edwin, stop it. Raymon really believes it.”
At my words, Raymon blinked his eyes with a stunned face.
Only then did Raymon, realizing Edwin’s joke, come closer to me, touching the back of his head.
“Rosebelia, so you’re okay?”
“Yeah. Your physique is good, but my shoulder is not that weak.”
“Really?”
“Indeed.”

Raymon, after seeing me rotate my shoulder three times, finally left with a relieved expression.
“Are you really okay?”
Ian asked. I, feeling his gaze examining my face, shrugged my shoulders.
“Of course, I’m fine. Just a little startled.”
“I’m glad then.”
Wait, did I thank Ian?
“Thank you, rookie.”
“I only did what I should. You shouldn’t get hurt, senior.”
I noticed the hidden meaning in his words as I saw the corner of his mouth rising.
“Yes, I shouldn’t get hurt.”

Ian, who said he couldn’t forget the moment when our swords met.
If I were to get hurt, we wouldn’t be able to spar, so you exerted superhuman strength to get here?
I see right through you. I see everything.
“Are you Klein?”
Edwin asked.
“Yes, senior.”
“That desire to protect, it was quite impressive.”
“Yes?”
Edwin answered with a smile, looking back and forth between me and Ian.
That smile, why does it feel ominous?
“Lucas and I will leave you two alone. Talk privately with Rose.”
Privately? Did I hear wrong?
“Ed? Ian and I have nothing more to talk about.”
“Seems like there is more on that side? So we’ll leave now.”
What is he saying now?
Come to think of it, did he say that Ian’s proposal was not a confession but a challenge?
Could Ian still be under the delusion that he likes me…
“Hey, Edwin!”
That’s not what you think!
“Why is Senior Edwin suddenly stepping aside?”

“That’s what I’m wondering too.”
“Perhaps…”
“I have something urgent, so I’ll go now.”
Leaving Ian, who seemed to sense something odd, tilting his head, I fled to the library of the knights.
Inside the library, which was the quietest place in the knights, there was, as expected, no one. Although small, it was a fairly wellfurnished library.
Orange lights hung at regular intervals on the high arched ceiling, and large arched windows were located between the large bookshelves.
Shall I start looking for a book?
As I stepped toward the bookshelf near the entrance of the library, a breeze that slipped through the window made the lights sway lightly.
The wind that enveloped the interior of the library carried the smell of old books and the somewhat musty smell from the carpet, grazing the tip of my nose.
Having liked secondhand bookstores and libraries in my previous life, I naturally smiled at the familiar sensation.

“There should be a book about aura in here…”
I had high hopes for the library inside the knights, but the book about aura was not easily noticeable.
After all, detecting aura itself is difficult, and becoming a Swordmaster who properly utilizes aura is an even rarer case.
“The Great Knight of the Empire, Lawrence Glazer?”
I reached out over a particularly eyecatching book. Embracing a book that was surely more than a foot thick, I immediately flipped to the first chapter.
“Lawrence Glazer is the pride of the Glazer family, a great knight who remains in the history of the Phonnese Empire as a Swordmaster. This book contains the biography of Lawrence Glazer.”
“I found it.”
Relief swelled in my chest. Turning from the shelf, I sat at the spacious desk and examined the chapter.
“It’s here, something about aura… it’s here!”
“This chapter is written with reference to the records of ‘aura’ left by ‘Lawrence Glazer’ during his lifetime.
Aura is a blessing. Only those who have reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship can detect aura, and at the detection stage, the amount of aura flowing through the body is so small that one can never use it.

Those who properly wield aura are called Swordmasters, having reached the highest realm of swordsmanship.
Pushing the aura that flows within the body outwards is called the manifestation of aura, and it is said that the light of the aura manifested differs from swordsman to swordsman.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
