Black and White Crows

Monica Buendía.

It is the name of the maid who assassinated Prince Abel on the previous timeline. Prince Abel, known as a famous playboy, was said to be a victim of a crime of passion but the details were not really revealed.



Let us rewind time a little. Back to the day when Mia and Sion fell into the river.

Monica was walking down the corridor of the Royal Castle of the Remno Kingdom. Her destination the office of a certain official. She stood in front of the door and knocked in a certain rhythm. The door opened silently.

“Graham”

“Monica …”

Graham looked more down than usual and greeted Monica with a face that didn’t hide his sullenness.

“The freaking guys from the Diamond Legion… why haven’t done anything yet? Is this caused again by that damn Wisdom of the Empire?”

Graham muttered in a paranoid tone as if believing in such a conspiracy. He finally looked up to Monica.

“So, what do you want?”

” I received this this morning.”

Monica revealed in her hand a small piece of folded papyrus and handed it to Graham.

“Ku…! Princess Mia and Prince Sion… Argh!”

Graham, who read it, muttered bitterly. Then, after sighing, he gave Monica another piece of papyrus.

“Send this back home.”

“Right away.”

It is Monica’s job to encrypted letter to send them to the messenger birds. Monica frowned after reading the letter she received from Graham.

“Are you sure this is right?”

“What do you mean?”

“This is the wrong information that will drag our home country into war… is it really okay to send this?”

“You guys are black crows. It’s best for you to just keep on collecting information in the shadows so that you don’t stand out. But I am a white crow. Whereas your job ends with information, mine starts with it. I must use it as a weapon for the glory of our homeland.”

Monica bit her lips hard hearing his words.

Kingdom of Sunkland’s intelligence unit is called the Wind Crows. It was established by a king several generations ago. Its primary job is to infiltrate other countries and bring back various information back to Sunkland. The intelligence brought back is vital for the diplomatic and military decision makings. The wind crows were considered to be a passive organization.

However, changes started happening with a man named Jem. He advocated for a territorial expansion. No longer would they just bring back information. They will also actively use it to weaken and divide other kingdoms. Then they can conquer it in the name of justice thereby expanding Sunkland.

A unit was created within the Wind Crows to carry out the plan. They were called the White Crows. They were the white birds that will announce the glory of Sunkland to the whole continent.

“Our mission as White Crows take precedence over anybody else’s.”

“……Yes”

Monica nodded, but she was swirling with emotions that she couldn’t digest.



Leaving Graham’s room, Monica sighed a little.

What am I even doing?

Monica was proud of her home country, Sunkland. The royal family, which values ​​justice and justice, and the royal government, which does not overlook injustice, was a glorious homeland for her.

This… this thing we are doing… isn’t this a smear to Sunkland’s glory?

Tendril of doubt being to envelop her heart. Her breathing started to quicken. Just then, someone rammed into her.

“Ah…”

She fell hard on the spot and the documents she had in her hands were scattered. The papyrus was in plain sight. Even though it was encrypted, it was still not good to be seen by others.

Monica rushed to pick it up, but suddenly a boot stomped on the papyrus.

“Ah……”

When she looked up, she saw a middle-aged official grinning.

“Don’t be sitting there woman. Move!”

The man said disdainfully.

Monica’s mission was to gather intelligence as a royal maid. In Remno Kingdom, women were looked down on, so the lips of senior officials could be shockingly loose around them. They assumed that women didn’t have the capacity to grasp the importance of what they hear. This works perfectly to her advantage.

But despite this being an advantage, suffering is still suffering. The advantage doesn’t ease the fact of being insulted or hit. Especially when she saw how her colleague maids are treated. She could barely hold in the eruption of her hatred

A country like this might okay to perish.

If this unreasonableness can be changed with the blood of the people, shouldn’t it be fair for Sunkland to rule it? Her thoughts started to swallow her. But then…

“Pick. Those. Up.”

A boy’s voice reached her ears. It was still young, but it was a dignified voice with a certain unfaltering will. Monica looked back and saw the owner of the voice.

“Did you not hear me? Pick those up! Then apologize to her.”

It was the figure of Abel Remno, the second prince of the Kingdom of Remno.

Translator’s Note:

The author at the end of this chapter added notes about the Wind Crows. But it is already something that was written. Basically, that Wind Crows are the spy network of Sunkland. Black Crows gather the information behind scenes. He also added a character introduction note for Graham. But that has already been added in the second part of Character Introduction.
