    thank you for all the translations and spoilers!!

    I have a question about agnes though. Was she into Riftan but just accepted being friend-zoned? When she and maxi first meet and talk, it sounded like she was disappointed to see Maxi? Am I reading it wrong?

    hey, no, both of them see each other as comrades with no romantic feelings involved at all. I don’t think she was disappointed, I didn’t get that feeling from her. She values her friendship wirh Riftan as well as Maxi. It’s just that Maxi can sometimes read her intentions too deep because of jealousy like what she did with Rosetta, but there are no hidden feelings as I notice from Agnes side... would actually prefer Agnes and Uslin together to be honest :)

    The reason why Maxi was in the battle was because of:

    mainly they needed a healer. Ruth and Uslin went to war against an army of trolls first and Riftan got a message that they were trapped in a castle. So the remaining knights; Hebaron, Yuri Xion, Riftan, etc went to save them, but they needed a healer to accompany them because of how dangerous the expedition is. (And ofc Ruth was not with them) so Maxi volunteered herself. Riftan was against this but after a LOT of convincing (especially from the knights) he reluctantly agreed to bring her with them.

    Maxi lost her baby because of mana exhaustion, she lost a lot of blood, it was already too late to save the baby. She actually had a BIG role on defeating the enemy, even bards were making songs about her after the war.

    After defeating their enemy, Maxi went to the Palace to recuperate with her injuries, and her father went to the palace and told her that she had a miscarriage and was angry at her. She was speechless cause she didn’t know about this and thought Riftan didn’t want to see her again because of this so she decided to go with her Father back to Croix Castle.

    So I'm new to this website so I hope I'm not disturbing you or anything because I literally made an account just to ask this questions lol. So is Max and Riftan back together after the war ends, or are they still trying to figure things out? Like I know you said that Riftan is still upset about how things ended before and Max understands that, and how things are really awkward with each other; But after the war ends are they in a better place? Will they be able to get back together because they're such a cute couple, I will feel so devastated if they don't they fix them/

    yes as Maryoo45 said, the author stopped updating chapters because of her health.. So the book is currently happening in Ethylene castle where Riftan wanted to share a room with Maxi after the war. It seems he’s slowly trying to open up with her again.

    Actually I think agnes likes riftan but she also acknowladges that riftan is married with someone else and she is also happy with being friends with Maxi. However, sometimes she acts too friendly in my opinion

    Actually all the knights thought riftan and agnes would end up together so they were very suprised when riftan refused marriage. If i remember right the reason why uslin treated her worse than everyone is he is a noble and has close relationship with imperial family so he was kinda holding a grudge because of this or something. (I think it's ridicilous btw)
    And another thing is i don't think riftan sees agnes as a woman lol to him she's Just his commander in fact he only considers Maxi as a woman. He's a very devoted lover

    I think it's normal if she likes him i mean they worked together for 3 years and everyone says that they worked very well riftan is also a young handsome man but I don't think she would marry him Just because her father said so. Agnes is an independent woman and she makes her own desicions

    Can anyone share more of Riftan’s pov during the dragon expedition?

    I hope the author will have more pov in the future, since it’s interesting going back and read the chapters again.

    I can totally understand why the knights didn’t like maxi in the beginning since they didn’t know her lol. I’m reading the beginning chapters again and forgot how many times they went “pikachu-face” when they see riftan/maxi moments haha

    Actually the reason why the knights didn’t like Maxi is because they hate the Duke of Croix and what he did to Riftan. They don’t care about the title etc. The Duke of Croix humiliated Riftan, forced him to go to the dragon expedition which almost led to their deaths.

    As Ruth said:
    “The Duke Croix has passed on such a difficult and dangerous expedition to Lord Calypse. Even the daughter didn’t do the least to defend her husband, who had been pushed to death on behalf of her father.”

    “The Red Dragon was that terrifying. Three or four knights would have been killed without Lord Calypse. In fact, there are those who were very close to death back then. One of them was Lord Calypse himself, as he fought on the front lines and crossed paths with death several times.”

    “That’s what the knights who followed Lord Calypse have been always thinking.” Ruth placed his spoon down and talked with an expressionless face.

    and this also the reason why Uslin told Riftan “Have you no pride? Why are you together with his daughter.....”

    The only thing they didn’t know is that Riftan already knew Maxi before when they were children. So he himself didn’t have any problems marrying her.

    The knights prefer Agnes because of how strong willed, brave, and how she’s more worthy to stand beside Riftan, as she already knows how Riftan’s world is.

    Ofc their opinion changed one by one, Hebaron first, Elliot, then Uslin last. Yurixion and Garow has already been a fan of her.
    Ofc this all changed after:
    Uslin and Elliot saw how Maxi was badly beaten by her Father, that she’s just another victim of her father’s menacing deeds.

    (i don't know if it makes sense :blobjoy:) (english is not my first language btw so please forgive me if i do mistakes :blobflag:)

    I have the same impressions on Agnes. She's great overall, she just needs to refrain being too friendly. Be reminded that Riftan is a married man and that her father basically disregarded that marriage.:sneaky: On Uslin, I find his earlier attitude unbearable. No matter how they hated Duke Croix, he shouldn't have insulted her. Maxi deserves everyone's utmost respect regardless if she went to assist in the war or not. I'd like to believe that Uslin started to see her in a different light after he learned maxi's efforts to be a healer. He apologized to Maxi and he's a sweetheart in book2 so I forgave him lols.:LOL:

    I have written a short summary of Book 1+2. Just be prepared, these are MAJOR spoilers. I will start from where the translated novel is currently at now.

    - So, as we already know, Maxi is starting to learn magic from Ruth because she doesn't want to be useless. Her reason; She doesn't want to be discarded by Riftan.

    - They received information that Princess Agnes will come for a visit. She'll be staying in Anatol for a while, and Maxi, as the lady of the castle, is responsible for preparing for their stay; rooms, food, etc.

    - Princess Agnes arrives and meets Maxi. Our FL will be jealous because Riftan will become busier when Agnes arrives and will be spending more time with her than Maxi. Reasoning: Riftan doesn't really want Maxi to hang out with Agnes because Agnes can be manipulative, and he doesn't want Maxi to be one of her victims.

    - One day, Agnes and Riftan went to Anatorium Forest to hunt for Wyverns, and it went badly; Anatol was damaged, so Maxi went there to help heal the civilians without Ruth's help (He joined the hunt).

    - She used up all her mana and collapsed. She woke up with Riftan pampering her (sweetest chapter ever). Riftan was ofc angry at Ruth because he didn't inform her about mana exhaustion, and in Ruth's defense, "I didn't think she was that reckless."

    - So, because of what happened, Riftan got overprotective, didn't allow Maxi to heal anymore and forbade her from going out of the castle.

    - Agnes felt terrible about this, so she drags Maxi to the Spring Festival. Agnes told Maxi why she visited Anatol; to check what Riftan was doing because of the King's order; The King wanted to check how loyal Riftan was to him. Agnes complimented Maxi about her healing powers and suggested that she go to the Wizard World's tower. Agnes then went back to the Capitol.

    - After that, they got a letter saying that an army of trolls were attacking Livadon and the "Allies" have been called.

    - Maxi was worried that Riftan would go, but instead, Ruth, Elliot, Lombardo, and Uslin went to Livadon with other knights.

    - Maxi started to learn to heal again, Riftan got angry, and they had their first big fight; I think I already posted about that chapter.

    - They got a decree saying that the Allied Knights have been defeated and the battle in Livadon was still ongoing. The Remdragon Knights were fighting on the frontlines and got trapped inside Louisbell Castle with an army of trolls surrounding them. They needed help pronto. The remaining Remdragon knights in Anatol were ready to save their comrades but can't depart without a healer. Maxi wanted to join them as a healer, but ofc Riftan firmly refused. She talked to Hebaron instead about convincing Riftan. All the knights tried to help her, and Riftan reluctantly agreed, still against it.

    - Maxi joined the expedition to Livadon. Riftan gave her the cold shoulder throughout the journey because he was still mad at her.

    - Many things happened, Maxi got lost after being attacked by goblins, Riftan looked for her, etc.

    - After they arrived in Levan, Livadon's Capitol, Riftan left Maxi in a monastery. The rest of the knights departed to Louisbell Castle the same day to save their comrades and recapture the castle.

    - Maxi got to know 2 people, one of which was Ishilda. They got news about how the war was going and how it can be prolonged, advising them to return to their homes as the capital's living situation can be ugly. Worried about their loved ones, Maxi and Ishilda joined the rear unit secretly dressed up as priestesses.

    - Many things happened; Maxi was actually doing pretty well, not being caught by other knights and staying alive. She also healed the wounded. Mind you, these are "allies," so not only Remdragon knights were here but also the Holy Father knights, and etc.

    - Maxi heard that the knights successfully saved Ruth and the others. They are now staying at Etylene to prepare for the war against an army of trolls, the dead and a necromancer. Maxi reunited with Ruth, making him an unwilling accomplice. They were on their way to Etylene castle, where their base is located.

    - After a while, Maxi got found out by Riftan and was angry at the turn of events. (I posted a chapter about this) She stayed with them the base, and there she met Richt for the first time.

    - The war started, the Elite knights with Riftan went to the woods to trap the trolls, leaving Maxi, 20 wizards, the wounded, and some knights behind Etylene castle.

    - Suddenly, all the monsters attacked the castle; Maxi tried to heal the wounded, on the verge of mana depletion again. Yurixion and Garow drag Maxi out of the castle by Ruth's order. She was reluctant because she didn't want to leave Ruth and Ishilda behind.

    - Maxi saw a cliff full of rocks and broke the rock formation with her remaining mana leading to a rockslide. Because of this, a lot of the enemies died. She was already on the verge of collapsing, Yurixion noticed she was bleeding heavily and was in panic mode. They ran for help and found Kuahel, the Holy Father Knights' leader, and managed to save her.

    - Maxi woke up after a week. Everybody was sad whenever they talked to her but greatly appreciated what she has done because she saved their lives. Riftan was cold, didn't really talk to her much, and told her to go to the Capitol with Agnes.

    - Maxi went to the Capitol with Agnes, Uslin, and Elliot and recuperated there. Her Father came, got mad at her, and told her about her miscarriage. She was in shock, ran away from the room, and asked Uslin if what her Father was saying was true. They told her that Riftan didn't want to let her know because she was already severely injured. In shock, she followed her Father back to Croix Castle by this news.

    - She was in a depressed state, didn't eat, etc. Then she heard that Riftan was in the castle, but her father refused to let them meet, he got angry, and the beating chapter began. (I posted that chapter already)

    - Riftan witnessed the whole thing and was in rage mode. Riftan brought her back to Anatol after beating the shit out of the duke. They had a deep talk. And he got overprotective again. Maxi heard from Ruth that Riftan declared a war against the duke of Croix.

    - Rosetta and Agnes came to Anatol after a while to stop Riftan and ask him to withdraw his declaration of war because the King is not happy. He reluctantly agreed as he owes Rosetta a favor. (Rosetta was the one who drugged the security so that Riftan can meet Maxi but instead witnessed the beating)

    - This crisis is still not done though, the duke is persistent, so they went for a trial; Hebaron asked Maxi to stand as a witness against the duke. If Riftan loses this, he will lose his title, and Anatol and Maxi didn't want that to happen, so she agreed. Riftan disagreed on bringing Maxi to the Capitol again for the trial because he doesn't want her to meet her Father. The trial went on for days. There was no hope for Riftan even though the King was on his side because of other nobles' power, so Agnes came up with a plan.

    - The plan was that the duke can't touch either Riftan or Maxi again if Maxi went to the World's Tower to become one of their wizards; because they will protect one of their magicians. Ofc, Maxi wants to protect Riftan, so she agreed to become one of their members, but to be a wizard officially, she needed to stay in Nornui for 3 years. Riftan was in a rage when he found out about their plan (The duke backed out of the trial after hearing this) and told Agnes that she was forbidden to set foot of Anatol.

    - Maxi and Riftan got into a huge argument, Riftan didn't care if he lost his title and land as long as he has Maxi, but Maxi didn't want that. She meant that Riftan worked hard for his life to be like this, and she didn't want him to lose all of it because of her. (I posted a chapter about this)

    - Riftan gave up, didn't talk to her, and Maxi left for the tower. She was escorted by the knights. Hebaron felt guilty he asked her to stand as a witness in the trial, and Uslin apologized about his behavior to her, and that was the end of Book 1. (I posted a chapter about this)

    - Took place after 2-and-a-half-year Maxi left. It started with Riftan going to the Capitol to meet the king and attending Rosetta's baby's birthday.

    - Maxi, still in the tower, tries to win a competition because she wants to go back to Anatol earlier than discussed. She's one of the most competent students, and her magic is related to earth.

    - Calto Serbel (notice the last name, he's a relative of?), a known wizard, formed an expedition to Pamela Plateau to investigate remnants of black magic. Maxi was one of the chosen members, the reward for completing the mission: guess what, going home early.

    - The chosen wizards and Maxi went to Anatol first to wait for the Knights of the Holy Father to accompany them. (I posted a chapter about the reunion) That's when Maxi heard from Uslin that Riftan will take the title of a Count soon after their mission in Livadon. And Maxi's father can't harm them no longer as Riftan is getting stronger politically wise.

    - Ofc, after hearing that Maxi is going to Pamela Plateau again, Uslin got mad. However, he can't do anything about it because Maxi was still not officially "out" from the tower yet and is doing duty. "The Wizards of the World Tower must follow the World Tower laws. There's no exception to royalty, not aristocrats. She's a member of us, and she's sworn to obey our laws. If you're going to force her to stay here, you're going to force the Wizard of the World Tower into custody." – Calto

    - Uslin taught her self-defense instead, and Yurixion sent a message to Riftan about Maxi's arrival and mission. When the Holy Father's Knights arrived, Uslin tried to convince them to let Maxi bring some Remdragon Knights, but Kuahel refused, saying it was not needed. They made a deal; Maxi brings Yurixion to accompany her, and they also get some food, horses, and materials required for their expedition. Kuahel agreed.

    - On their way to a village, they were attacked by the dead and were losing. The Remdragon knights came and helped them, and Riftan discussed with Kuahel telling him they will accompany them to the following location.

    - When they arrived there, Riftan got a message from Sejour Aren about what he discovered in Etylene (where the war was previously in Book 1). He tried to convince Calto and Kuahel that Remdragon will also accompany them to Pamela Plateau, as they need to investigate the area as well for more information; if not, he will inform the Seven Kingdoms and the council that the Knights of the Holy Father has hidden vital information about the previous war; they found a strategic map of the allies.

    - Calto and Kuahel had no choice but to agree with his demands.

    After a long journey, they arrived in Pamela Plateau, went inside the cave to investigate, and were suddenly attacked by Golems. Maxi fell off a cliff with Riftan trying to save her. They were stuck in a cave for a while.

    - After their rest, they went out to find the others and accidentally found the "base" of the enemy. They eventually reunited with the group and informed them what they have discovered. (the dice chapter happened here where they played a game, and the one who lost will accompany the scouting teams)

    - Of course, Maxi lost, the scouting team was divided into two groups; to investigate two different enemy's base locations.

    - Maxi and Riftan were in different teams, they agreed to meet in their meeting place after two days, the first to arrive was Maxi's team. Riftan's team still hasn't arrived after two more days, and Maxi got dead worried. She tried to secretly go after Riftan but was caught by Ruth and Kuahel.

    - Many things happened, and they finally found Riftan and his team in a cave, very severely injured. Maxi got into a fight with Riftan because she was worried about him etc.

    - They went back to Etylene castle (which was now thriving after the war) and rested there. They were waiting for the "Allies" to assemble and start another war after telling the council what they have found.

    - Riftan didn't want Maxi to come (I posted a chapter about this), but Maxi didn't listen to him. She was then assigned to lead the Rear Unit.

    - The plan was for Riftan to secretly infiltrate the enemy's base and control the wyverns they found inside before. Maxi and Riftan had a heart-to-heart talk before taking his plan into action.

    - Well, everyone thought Riftan failed because they haven't heard anything from him, so they started attacking the enemy's gates. There were a LOT of casualties, no Remdragon knights died, but one; Garow, badly lost his eyesight on the Right (or left eye). After while they saw wyverns flying up and attacking the goblins and trolls inside the castle (Riftan succeeded)

    - Riftan and Maxi reunited, they went back to Etylene castle to rest and finally will share a room. yes.. that was the end of book 2 as of now.. still updating, though.
