00:00When is my little one going to hatch already?
00:02Mommy needs a night out.
00:06My baby, you're finally out.
00:08Huh?
00:09Wait a minute.
00:10Other phoenix babies are fluffy at birth.
00:13How come you're all bare like this?
00:17This little red thing does seem to be my baby after all.
00:22No, wait.
00:23Phoenix babies all have tiny wings.
00:25Why don't you have any wings?
00:27Did you lose them when you hatched?
00:37Are you hungry?
00:38It's mommy's fault.
00:39I should have known.
00:40I will take you to get something good.
00:42Better than the sweet berries from the fox clan.
00:49Shh.
00:50Keep your voice down.
00:51This is Aurelius King's prized ambrosia orchard.
00:53The best peaches in the realm are here.
00:55We'll eat to our heart's content today.
00:57Then we run.
00:57We can't be caught.
01:03Hungry.
01:04Peach.
01:05Peach.
01:06Easy now.
01:07Let me finish this.
01:08I'll give you a bite.
01:13Good girl.
01:14This peach is so sweet.
01:16You'll get yours soon.
01:23You mischievous phoenix again.
01:26You never learn.
01:27How dare you steal my peaches again.
01:29Spare me your majesty.
01:31Have mercy.
01:31I didn't mean it this time.
01:33I just brought my baby to see the world.
01:35Finding her something to eat on the way.
01:37You brought your baby.
01:38A reckless creature like you has no business raising a child.
01:40Calm down your majesty.
01:41I brought a gift this time to make amends.
01:43I promise you'll be pleased.
01:49I give you this child.
01:51Look your majesty.
01:51This is my very own flesh and blood.
01:53She can be your little attendant to repay you for the peaches.
02:02Take good care of her.
02:05I'll visit next time.
02:15A baby phoenix?
02:17Quite peculiar.
02:19You're born in human form.
02:21Your mother certainly knows how to pick a peace offering.
02:23Dumping her own baby on me and fleeing.
02:31So noisy.
02:33Milk.
02:33Milk.
02:34Milk.
02:35Milk.
02:36Milk.
02:38Milk.
02:39Milk.
02:39Milk.
02:40Insolence.
02:41Show some respect.
02:42I am not someone you can just grab at as you please.
02:48Your majesty.
02:49Perhaps you could let me tend to the little one?
02:52I know a thing or two about caring for infants.
02:55Hurry.
02:56Take her away and tend to her properly and stop her from crying.
03:07Look into this baby phoenix's origins.
03:10Find out which family she belongs to.
03:12We will return her tomorrow.
03:14I have no time for this unruly brat.
03:17Yes, your majesty.
03:21Your majesty.
03:22I have...
03:23I have looked into the little one's origins.
03:25But the fey realm says her bloodline is impure.
03:29She isn't of true phoenix descent.
03:30They refuse to take her back.
03:32What?
03:33They dare refuse her?
03:35Investigate again.
03:36Trace her exact lineage.
03:37Find out where she truly comes from.
03:39Even if you must search the whole fey realm, find the truth.
03:41Yes.
03:41I will look into it at once.
03:46Milk, milk.
03:47She's driving me crazy.
03:49Take her away.
03:50Don't cry, little one.
03:51I'll feed you right now.
03:55You little monster.
03:56That is an official memorial, not food.
03:59Unbelievable.
04:00Here's a spirit fruit.
04:01Stop biting the paper.
04:10That's it.
04:10His majesty will be angry.
04:12Such a troublemaker.
04:14Just like your mother.
04:15Forget it.
04:16I'll keep you for now.
04:18We'll decide once your lineage is clear.
04:21Good.
04:24My little lord.
04:26Those are spirit elixirs.
04:27Not candy.
04:29Too many will make your tummy burn.
04:31Yummy.
04:32Yummy.
04:35Oh, you.
04:36You are nothing but mischief.
04:39Oh, my dear lord.
04:40These are the threads of fate.
04:42You can't just pull on them.
04:44If you mess them up, chaos will fall.
04:50So pretty.
04:52I want the red one.
04:54With a little phoenix on it.
05:00Little one.
05:01Hold steady.
05:03Hold steady.
05:04Relax.
05:07Your majesty.
05:09Milk.
05:09I want milk.
05:10Go find the handmaiden.
05:12I have official duties.
05:14I can't play with you.
05:16Aria.
05:17Come here.
05:18I'll get your milk ready.
05:22Your majesty.
05:23Young beasts need milk on time.
05:25Not too much.
05:26Nor too little.
05:27You must also play with her.
05:28That way she'll grow up healthy.
05:30I know.
05:30Go on.
05:31What else should I note?
05:32Like when she had too many elixirs.
05:34What should be done?
05:34Your majesty.
05:35Are you learning how to feed me?
05:38Don't be ridiculous.
05:39I am merely checking whether the handmaiden is doing her job well.
05:42I was worried she might not care for you well enough and slow your growth.
05:45Whatever you say.
05:47Go play with the handmaiden.
05:49I must attend to my duties.
05:51Okay.
06:02Your majesty.
06:03I miss my mommy.
06:05She's probably fishing in the azure sea or stealing herbs from the west hills.
06:09Or maybe packing her things, ready to cause trouble somewhere else.
06:11Really?
06:12Let's go find her, shall we?
06:14I want to see my mommy.
06:15I want to ask her where she's been all these years and if she's missed me at all.
06:17Alright.
06:18I will take you to find her.
06:21Your majesty.
06:22You're more reliable than mommy.
06:24Mommy only runs around.
06:25But you actually play with me.
06:27Buy me fresh fruits.
06:28And even feed me my milk.
06:30Let's go.
06:31We'll check the azure sea first.
06:33We might find traces of your mother.
06:41Your majesty.
06:42Look.
06:42Is that a dragon?
06:43It's so big and majestic.
06:47Yes.
06:47They are the dragon clan of the azure sea.
06:49King Nereus is friends with your mother.
06:51He might know her whereabouts.
06:52Great.
06:53Let's go down quickly.
06:54We can ask King Nereus if he knows where mommy is.
06:56Hold still.
06:56Careful.
06:57You'll fall off.
06:57The azure sea is deep.
06:58You'll catch a cold if you fall in.
07:00Your majesty.
07:00I'll hold still.
07:01I promise.
07:01Don't worry.
07:06Welcome, your majesty.
07:08Forgive our delay.
07:09Please pardon me.
07:11No need for formalities, Nereus.
07:13I came today to ask about someone.
07:15Fiona Valerius.
07:16Have you seen her recently?
07:19And who is this?
07:23I'm the little phoenix raised by his majesty.
07:25My name is Aria Valerius.
07:27King Nereus?
07:28Have you seen my mommy?
07:29Her name is Fiona Valerius.
07:30So you're Aria.
07:31I am Orion, third son of King Nereus.
07:33You are so adorable.
07:34Shall I show you the coral garden?
07:35There are colorful corals there and little fish that glow.
07:38It's beautiful.
07:39Yes, yes.
07:40I...
07:41No rush.
07:41Let's handle our business first.
07:46Your majesty, please join me in the main hall.
07:49Regarding the whereabouts of Fiona, I do have some information.
07:52Orion, take this young lady to the side hall for some refreshments.
07:55Treat her well.
07:56Yes, father.
07:57Come on, Aria.
07:58Let's go.
07:58I'll take you to the side hall.
08:01Aria, take this abyssal pearl.
08:03The waters of the azure sea run cold.
08:05It'll keep your clothes dry so you won't get sick.
08:07The abyssal pearl is an ancient artifact.
08:09His majesty treats her so well.
08:13Aria, look.
08:14I had all of this prepared just for you.
08:16This is crystal cake.
08:17It's made from ground pearls of the azure sea.
08:20So sweet.
08:21And these are fish fillets.
08:22Freshly caught cod from the sea.
08:24Tender and tasty.
08:25You'll surely love it.
08:26Hmm?
08:27What are they saying?
08:28Did you hear?
08:29Aurelius King brought a little phoenix to the palace.
08:31She is so adorable.
08:32Oh, I know.
08:33I just saw Prince Orion take that little phoenix to the side hall.
08:35Prince Orion always knows how to charm the girls.
08:37Maybe he likes that little phoenix.
08:41Aria, don't mind their gossip.
08:43They are talking nonsense.
08:44Here, let me wipe your dress.
08:46I have even better treats over here.
08:48Would you like to try some?
08:49Let me get you some broth.
08:50It's really sweet.
08:52Your Majesty, why are you here?
08:57You're very kind, Prince Orion.
08:58But Aria has a weak stomach.
09:00She can't eat raw or cold seafood, lest she get sick.
09:03That was careless of me, Your Majesty.
09:04Please forgive me.
09:05I won't offer her anything raw or cold again.
09:08We should go.
09:09We have to find your mother elsewhere.
09:13Orion, goodbye.
09:15I'll come see the corals with you next time.
09:19Aria.
09:20Valerius.
09:21Your Majesty, to be honest, I haven't seen Fiona recently.
09:26The last time I saw her was decades ago.
09:29She came to steal my precious pearls.
09:31I caught her, and she made a huge scene with me.
09:34I haven't seen her since then.
09:36Your Majesty, Mommy isn't in the Azure Sea.
09:38Where do we find her?
09:40Don't be disappointed.
09:41We will look elsewhere.
09:42The High Sages of the Sanctum of Light are vastly powerful.
09:45They might know where your mother is.
09:46Your Majesty, you're right.
09:48High Sage Sophia of the Sanctum of Light and High Sage Linus are ancient beings.
09:53They must know Fiona's whereabouts.
09:55Besides, the Bodhi fruits there are tasty.
09:58Perfect for a little fairy like Aria to eat.
10:00Are they yummy?
10:01Better than peaches in your orchard?
10:03You'll know when we get there.
10:05I promise you won't be disappointed.
10:06Yeah.
10:16Perfect timing, Your Majesty.
10:18We are chanting prayers for blessings today.
10:19What a coincidence.
10:20And who is this little one?
10:21This is my little phoenix, Aria.
10:23I brought her out to see the world and to ask you sages about someone.
10:26Fiona Valerius, a golden red phoenix.
10:28Have any of you sages seen her?
10:30Kind sages, nice to see you.
10:31I'm looking for my mom.
10:33Her name is Fiona.
10:34She eats a lot and loves stealing.
10:35Have you seen her?
10:36What a cute child.
10:37I did see Fiona once.
10:39Decades ago, she came here to steal Bodhi fruits.
10:42I caught her in the act.
10:43I gave her some advice and she left.
10:44I haven't seen her since.
10:45I see.
10:46When will I finally find my mommy?
10:48Don't rush, little one.
10:50When the time is right, you will naturally meet your mother.
10:52Aria Phoenix's true form is very beautiful.
10:54Could you show us your true form?
10:56It would be an honor to witness it.
10:58Your Majesty, can I transform?
11:00Yes, just be careful.
11:01Don't tire yourself out.
11:13What a beautiful phoenix.
11:15It's full of spiritual energy.
11:16A great destiny surely awaits her.
11:18Your Majesty, do I look pretty?
11:20Mommy says our phoenix forms are the prettiest.
11:23Yes, very pretty.
11:24Prettier than your mom.
11:25Little one, since you're looking for your mother, you could check Mount Clearlight.
11:29The Mirror of Fates is there.
11:30It reveals one's past and present.
11:32It may show you your mother's whereabouts and unveil your own past.
11:35Really?
11:35Your Majesty, can we go take a look?
11:37I want to see what I was in my past life and find out where mom is.
11:40Since you want to go, we'll go to Mount Clearlight.
11:44Huh?
11:51Your Majesty, is this the Mirror of Fates?
11:54Can it truly see through time?
11:55Yes.
11:56Focus your mind in front of the mirror, and you will see your past and your fated one.
12:00What's a fated one?
12:02Is it like those men who hang around mom?
12:05You'll know when you see it.
12:14Is this me in my past life?
12:16So cute!
12:16I was a little fairy in my past life, and I could fly!
12:19Your Majesty, wasn't I cute in my past life?
12:22Yes.
12:23Very cute.
12:24Just as cute as you are now.
12:26But what about my faded one?
12:28Where is he?
12:29Is he cute too?
12:31That's strange.
12:32Why is it so blurry?
12:33Your Majesty, is it because I'm not focusing hard enough?
12:35I'll try again.
12:43Your Majesty, what did you see?
12:45What was your past life like?
12:47And who is your fated one?
12:54It's nothing.
12:55We should go back.
12:56It's getting late.
12:57We must find your mom elsewhere.
12:59Your Majesty, are you unhappy?
13:03Did I do something wrong?
13:05Or do you not want to find my mom anymore?
13:09No.
13:10I'm not unhappy.
13:11Nor have I given up on finding your mom.
13:13I was only considering where to search next, so that we might find her sooner.
13:17Actually, it's okay if we don't find her.
13:18Having you here is enough for me.
13:20But I still really want to see her.
13:22I want to tell her you treat me so well.
13:31Don't worry.
13:33We will definitely find her.
13:41Your Majesty, do you smell that?
13:44Smells so good.
13:46It smells sweet and warm.
13:50Yes.
13:51I smell it.
13:52Those are the foods of the mortal realm.
13:53Candied apples, roasted treats, and various pastries.
13:56Things you've never had.
13:58Your Majesty, can we go down and taste some?
14:00I want a sweet candied apple.
14:03And the warm roasted treats.
14:04Let's find your mom first.
14:06Once we find her, I'll take you down for mortal food.
14:10Deal?
14:10Okay then.
14:11Then let's find Mommy quickly.
14:13After we find her, you must keep your promise.
14:19This is definitely your mother's style.
14:24She has to show off everywhere she goes.
14:27She even picks such a flashy name.
14:29Your Majesty, let's go in.
14:31Mommy must be in there.
14:32Huh?
14:38You are so beautiful.
14:41My lady, please eat slowly.
14:43There are plenty more grapes.
14:44They are freshly picked.
14:45Very sweet.
14:47Mom?
14:48Mommy?
14:51Aria?
14:55Your Majesty, you're here too.
14:57What a lovely surprise.
15:01Fiona, you certainly seem to be enjoying yourself.
15:03Leaving your daughter in the heaven realm while you make merry here.
15:06Misunderstanding.
15:07It's a misunderstanding.
15:07Your Majesty, I was finding someone to care for Aria.
15:09You know how wild I am.
15:11I'm not the nurturing type.
15:12So I wanted to find someone reliable.
15:13I didn't expect you two to get along so well.
15:15So I thought I'd let you raise her.
15:22I understand now.
15:23Kiddo, you eloped with His Majesty.
15:25No wonder I couldn't find you for so long.
15:27You ran back to heaven with His Majesty.
15:30What are you talking about?
15:31Your daughter missed you.
15:33I brought her here to find you, lest a mother such as yourself forget she even has a daughter.
15:38You scared me.
15:39I thought you came to settle the score for the peaches I stole 30 years ago.
15:42Kiddo, come here.
15:44Let me look at you.
15:45My baby, why are you still so small?
15:47Didn't His Majesty feed you well?
15:48Look at you.
15:49You're nothing but skin and bones.
15:50I eat a lot every day.
15:51I eat those elixirs like candy.
15:52His Majesty often buys me fresh fruits.
15:54I'm not skinny at all.
15:55Now that we've found you, Aria will stay with you for a while.
15:58You can enjoy some mother-daughter time.
16:00Huh?
16:01Well, you see.
16:03Your Majesty, I must go to the Sapphire Sea for singing pearls.
16:07I'm afraid I have no time to care for Aria.
16:14Yes!
16:15Absolutely no problem.
16:17Leave Aria to me.
16:17I'll take good care of her.
16:19I won't let her go hungry or suffer any wrongs.
16:21Are you leaving, Your Majesty?
16:23When will you come see me?
16:25I still want you to take me to eat candied apples and roasted treats.
16:30Be good.
16:31I'll come see you after settling my duties.
16:36Here are some toys inside.
16:38Play with them when you're bored.
16:40There are also fresh fruits and pastries.
16:42Eat when you're hungry.
16:43Once I have finished my official duties, I'll come see you and take you for mortal food.
16:48Okay?
16:51Yes!
16:52Your Majesty, you must come see me soon.
16:54Don't break your word.
16:56Rest assured.
16:57I won't lie to you.
16:58This golden light is my core spiritual power.
17:00Should you be in any danger, I will know immediately, and I'll come save you right away.
17:04Did he bring half the heaven realm here?
17:06He is being far too good to my daughter.
17:08Could it be he's fallen for my daughter?
17:12Be a good girl.
17:14Take good care of yourself.
17:16I will come soon.
17:30Kiddo.
17:30You've won over the toughest man around.
17:34But that's okay.
17:35Mommy supports you.
17:37Alright.
17:38Alright.
17:39Stop looking like an abandoned puppy.
17:41Let's go.
17:42I'll show you what it means to have a good time.
17:45I'm going to show you all the best snacks and all the fun things.
17:49Dismissed, everyone.
17:50My daughter is the boss today.
17:52No time to play with you.
17:54Yes.
18:0717 days and 6 hours.
18:09She ran off again.
18:11Mommy is unbelievable.
18:12She's always in such a rush to leave, saying she's off to the Sapphire Sea for singing pearls.
18:17Last time she went for a thousand year mushroom, she brought back a bunch of weeds.
18:21She's probably been scammed again.
18:25Honestly, how improper.
18:28A young lady squats on the roof and gnaws food.
18:31Climbing up and down, you don't act like a proper lady at all.
18:35Who would want to marry you?
18:42Mind your own business.
18:43The view's better up here.
18:45And the sun is much warmer.
18:46It's way better than being cooped up doing needlework like you.
18:48You old fossil!
18:51The mortal world has way too many rules.
18:53Good thing I've held back a lot.
18:54If this were 130 years ago when I first arrived, I'd flash my phoenix tail and scare you to death.
19:10The treasures his majesty gave me back then were all wasted by mommy.
19:14Look!
19:15This is the new steed I bought!
19:18Help!
19:20Kiddo!
19:20Catch me!
19:22Oh mommy!
19:24That was just an untamed wild horse.
19:28Kiddo!
19:30It's a waste not to use his majesty's gifts.
19:32They'll just gather dust.
19:34Better to trade them for food and fun things.
19:36What a bargain!
19:36Those were meant for me!
19:38You can't trade them for booze!
19:39He will scold you!
19:41So what?
19:42He dotes on you so much.
19:44Even if he finds out, he'll only blame me.
19:46He won't scold you.
19:47Besides, I shared half my booze with you.
19:53That pearl had the power to summon the celestial river.
19:56And you traded it for a few jars of liquor.
19:59Mommy, you really don't care.
20:09It's been 130 years, your majesty.
20:13Where are you?
20:15You promised you'd come for me.
20:18You said we'd eat candied apples.
20:20You didn't see the lantern festival.
20:23Have you forgotten?
20:25Mommy!
20:26I wanna go find him!
20:27I wanna see him!
20:29Take me inside quickly!
20:32Little one, stop making a fuss.
20:34The heaven realm has rules.
20:35We can't just barge in.
20:37My ladies, I'd like to help.
20:39But I am truly sorry.
20:41His majesty fought in the outer realm and was gravely injured.
20:43He has been in seclusion since his return.
20:45It is unknown when he will emerge.
20:46No one is allowed to disturb him.
20:48Alas!
20:49See, kiddo?
20:50He has long forgotten you.
20:51He has a million things to do.
20:53He's busy keeping the realm safe.
20:55He has no time to think about a little phoenix.
20:58No!
20:59He wouldn't forget me!
21:01He said he'd come back!
21:05Alas!
21:13This is the dragon scale his majesty took from his collar in the Azure Sea Dragon Palace.
21:18Your majesty, you definitely still remember me, don't you?
21:25Thankfully, I still have you with me.
21:33Oops!
21:35I'll stop thinking about this.
21:37My stomach is growling.
21:39Mommy actually has a conscience this time.
21:41She left some coins.
21:53Only she would do such a thing.
21:55Hiding coins under the roast chicken.
21:57Isn't she afraid the rats would make off with them?
21:59Fresh bugs for sale!
22:00No!
22:09Yo, Aria is here.
22:10The usual, I assume?
22:11Two bowls of spice broth noodles, extra scallions, and less salt?
22:17Ma'am, let's change the order today.
22:20Just one bowl will do.
22:23Just one?
22:24Where is your mother?
22:25Doesn't she usually come with you and steal the scallions from your bowl?
22:30Huh?
22:30She ran off again.
22:31Said she's off to the Sapphire Sea for singing pearls.
22:34She'll probably play for a while before returning.
22:37Your mother really can't sit still.
22:39I'll cook you a bowl with extra scallions just for you.
22:42Thank you, ma'am.
23:02Hey, slow down, you lot.
23:04You're ruining my noodles.
23:06Sorry about that.
23:07Aria, we're in a huge rush.
23:09Albus White finished his class.
23:10If we're late, we won't get good seats and we'll miss his lecture.
23:14Yeah, Aria.
23:15He's talking about the Book of Myths today.
23:17It's very interesting.
23:18You should come too.
23:24Albus White?
23:25How capable can he be?
23:26He made all the girls in town go crazy over him.
23:28Before leaving, mommy urged me to go see him.
23:31I chased her out with a broom.
23:32Thinking about it now, good thing I didn't go.
23:35Aria, don't underestimate Albus.
23:37They say he's brilliant.
23:38And his looks are even more striking.
23:40He's more handsome than any gentleman painted in a scroll.
23:43The local girls are practically living at his academy these days.
23:45Huh, handsome?
23:47Is he even as handsome as his majesty?
23:49I don't believe it.
23:49Well, whether he's handsome or not, you'll know when you see him.
23:53Anyway, many girls say that once they've seen him, they can't even eat.
24:04I'm just going to see how impressive this Albus really is.
24:06It has nothing to do with curiosity about his looks.
24:09Right, just a look.
24:24Look over there.
24:25Albus is wearing cyan today.
24:27He looks even better than he did in his white robes yesterday.
24:29That's not all.
24:30His handwriting is also incredibly beautiful.
24:32Last time I begged him for one of his scrolls.
24:34I keep it by my bed and look at it every day.
24:35There are so many people.
24:37It's so crowded.
24:37What's so great to see?
24:38Forget it.
24:39I should just go back.
24:42Today, we'll discuss phoenixes from the Book of Myths.
24:45Let's talk about the Lord of Birds and its legendary rebirth through fire.
24:49About phoenixes?
24:50Why is he talking about phoenixes?
24:52And why does his voice sound so familiar?
25:05The phoenix has a male and a female form.
25:09It's said they are reborn in fire every 500 years.
25:11With wings like blazing flames, their cry echoes through the very heavens.
25:14That's not true.
25:16It's not 500 years.
25:17It's 1,000.
25:18His Majesty told me himself back then.
25:20The 500-year myth in the books is wrong.
25:22A true rebirth takes 1,000 years of fire.
25:25Oh, no!
25:28Careful, miss.
25:38Oh, my!
25:40Albus is holding Aria!
25:42Aria is so lucky to be held by Albus.
25:47You put me down.
25:54I'm sorry, Albus.
25:55I didn't mean to.
25:56I just wanted to hear you talk about phoenixes.
25:58I accidentally snapped the branch.
26:00Since you're so interested in phoenix legends, I will explain them to you.
26:04Don't blame yourself.
26:05Judging by your reaction just now, you seem quite well-read on the subject.
26:09Albus!
26:10Don't flatter her.
26:12Aria climbs around all day long.
26:14She can barely read.
26:15She knows nothing about phoenix legends.
26:17She's just babbling.
26:24Don't be shy, miss.
26:26Knowledge knows no hierarchy nor boundaries.
26:29Tomorrow, I'll explain the Azure Sea.
26:30Would you be willing to be my assistant?
26:32To help correct my oversights from today?
26:36Why does his aura match his majesties?
26:39And that golden glint in his eyes, who exactly is he?
26:45No, I can't stay here any longer.
26:50Aria, it's been a century.
26:53You're still so shy.
27:01Aria, Valerius, why are you panicking?
27:04He's just a common mortal schoolteacher.
27:07They just look alike and have similar auras.
27:10How could it be his majesty?
27:13His majesty is still in seclusion in heaven.
27:16Get a grip.
27:16You just got a hug from a stranger.
27:19What's there to panic about?
27:22But his embrace felt so familiar.
27:26It was exactly how it felt when his majesty held me all those years ago.
27:51Aria, come here.
27:55Come to me.
27:57Your majesty.
28:14Why did I have such a dream?
28:16Who exactly is he?
28:23Hey, lanterns for sale!
28:32Aria, off to Albus's lecture again!
28:36You've gone every single day this past month, more eager than the school kids.
28:42Nonsense.
28:43I'm just going to listen and to correct him whenever he makes a mistake.
28:49Oh, Aria, that butterfly hairpin is so pretty.
28:53Did you buy it especially for your visit to Albus?
28:57Absolutely not.
28:58I just thought it was pretty, so I bought it.
29:04Albus passes Willow Lane at 7.45 a.m.
29:07He loves lunging tea the most, and he absolutely hates cilantro.
29:11He subconsciously knits his brows while lecturing.
29:14He's so patient when explaining things to struggling students.
29:17His eyes are unbelievably gentle.
29:19All right.
29:21Today, we'll talk about merfolk tears.
29:23Legends say their tears turn into pearls.
29:25Each pearl is sparkling and translucent, worth a fortune.
29:28But these pearls aren't the most precious.
29:30It is.
29:31The tear of blood shed for their true love.
29:34Merfolk love only one person in their lifetime.
29:37Only tears shed for their true love will form a tear of blood.
29:40That tear of blood can protect their love for a lifetime.
29:50Aria, you're truly knowledgeable.
29:52That's exactly right.
29:53The tale of the merfolk's tears is known to very few.
29:57Yet you understand it so thoroughly.
29:59I just read it by chance.
30:01It's nothing.
30:02Oh no!
30:03In the heat of the moment, I blurted out a tale I read in His Majesty's study.
30:07Will he be suspicious?
30:16Aria, a moment please.
30:20Albus?
30:21Is there something else?
30:22I...
30:23I have to go home.
30:24I'm going to Mirror Lake to sketch tomorrow.
30:26I heard merfolk appear there.
30:27And the scenery is beautiful.
30:29You know a lot about merfolk legends.
30:32Would you like to come with me?
30:33You could help me identify them to see if the rumors are true.
30:38I...
30:39I have to mind the shop.
30:41My mother isn't home.
30:43No one else can watch it.
30:46It'll only take half a day.
30:47We'll leave early and return early.
30:49It won't delay you from minding the shop.
30:51At 7.45am, I'll wait at the pier.
30:54How about it?
30:55Take this.
30:56When you see this willow leave tomorrow, you'll know it's me.
31:14What do the merfolk in the Mirror Lake look like?
31:17The books in His Majesty's study said merfolk are good singers.
31:20Their voices soothe the soul.
31:25If Mommy were home, she'd laugh her head off.
31:28Saying I'm doing homework for an outing.
31:31But that's okay.
31:32I must perform well tomorrow.
31:34Can't let Albus think I'm bragging.
32:01Albus, I'm here.
32:04Get on the boat.
32:05We're about to leave.
32:09He's wearing a white gown today.
32:11He looks so handsome.
32:13He looks exactly like His Majesty.
32:15Just like how he was in the Ambrosia Orchard.
32:18What are you thinking about, Arya?
32:20You're so lost in thought.
32:22Nothing.
32:23Mirror Lake is prettier than I expected.
32:25And it's prettier than the Sapphire Sea Mom mentioned.
32:30Mirror Lake is indeed beautiful.
32:31But no scenery compares to the girl before me.
32:56The rain isn't heavy.
32:57But don't catch a cold.
32:59Hold the umbrella.
33:01This umbrella is too small.
33:03It's not big enough for the two of us.
33:07It's alright.
33:08It's enough if we stand closer.
33:22Will you come tomorrow?
33:23I'll tell tales of the Azure Sea Dragon Palace.
33:26I'm sure you'll be interested.
33:28Yes.
33:29I will definitely come.
33:34Good.
33:36Then it's a promise.
33:37I'll wait for you.
33:42I'll wait for you.
33:44What should I do?
33:45I think I care about him more and more.
33:49But who exactly is he?
33:52His Majesty is in seclusion in Heaven.
33:54But he looks so much like His Majesty.
34:03Kiddo!
34:05Wake up!
34:08Look what I brought back!
34:16Stop sleeping!
34:17Get up!
34:18Mommy has huge news for you!
34:20Guess what I heard at the South Heaven Gate!
34:23What news?
34:23I'm not interested.
34:25Keep it to yourself.
34:27It's about Aurelius.
34:29I heard he went into seclusion to comprehend some heavenly philosophy.
34:33He won't be out for a thousand years.
34:36Oh.
34:37What's it to me?
34:40Oh?
34:41I've never seen this necklace before.
34:47Ah.
34:48Such strong dragon aura.
34:50This is a dragon scale.
34:52Kiddo.
34:53Where did you get this?
34:58You're mistaken.
34:59It's just an ordinary necklace.
35:01No dragon aura at all.
35:05Actually.
35:06I also went to the Ninth Heaven.
35:09The Orchard Boy told me.
35:11Before His Majesty went into seclusion,
35:13he stood in the orchard for three whole days.
35:15Looking at the peach tree you love to climb.
35:18Without saying a word.
35:23Enough!
35:24I don't want to hear it!
35:26I don't want to know!
35:29He abandoned me.
35:30I thought you'd want to know.
35:32Who says he abandoned you?
35:33He clearly...
35:39Liar!
35:40You're all liars!
35:43You're all liars!
35:49Elvis, you're a liar too!
35:51You said you'd wait for me!
35:52Why aren't you here?
35:54Mommy was right!
35:56Waiting is the most foolish thing to do!
35:58I waited for His Majesty for 130 years.
36:01Now he's in seclusion for a thousand years!
36:03I thought you were him!
36:05I thought I wouldn't have to wait anymore!
36:07But you lied to me too!
36:12Aria, I'm sorry.
36:15I'm late.
36:19Albus!
36:20Mommy was right!
36:22Waiting is the most foolish thing to do!
36:34It's been three years.
36:35This guy is like clockwork every single day.
36:37He's more punctual than the heavenly morning bell.
36:39Wearing a white gown with a jade hairpin?
36:41He really reminds me of His Majesty back then.
36:43Goodbye, Albus!
36:45For tomorrow's Book of Songs class, you must talk about the Osprey's poem.
36:48Don't worry.
36:48I will teach it tomorrow.
36:50Take care on your way.
36:51Don't get distracted.
36:56Peeking again?
36:57Aria, your habit of peeking hasn't changed in three years.
37:02Who's peeking?
37:04Who's peeking?
37:04I wasn't!
37:05I'm sunning my phoenix feathers!
37:07Stop talking nonsense!
37:29Are they dry yet, my little phoenix?
37:35You...
37:35What did you call me?
37:37Only His Majesty calls me by that name.
37:43Here.
37:44I brought this for you.
37:46You said the roasted chestnuts from Nutty Nook weren't sweet.
37:49I had the boss add more sugar today.
37:51I merely complained in passing.
37:52I didn't expect him to take it to heart.
37:54But who exactly is he?
37:56How does he know the name only His Majesty uses?
37:58Why is he so good to me?
38:00Aria.
38:01I want to visit your mother tomorrow.
38:03I want to tell her.
38:04That I want to be with you forever.
38:08Oh!
38:09She's not home!
38:10She went to the Sapphire Sea for singing pearls!
38:12Said she's making me a pearl bracelet!
38:14I don't know when she'll be back!
38:17Every time you lie,
38:18your feathers pop out from your ears.
38:20Aria.
38:21You're busted again.
38:25Aria Valerius.
38:26It's been three years.
38:27I've been by your side for three whole years.
38:29I bring you roasted chestnuts every single day.
38:32Watching dawn and dusk with you in clear water,
38:34do you still not believe me?
38:48Aria.
38:49You must remember.
38:50You're still young and naive to the evils of the world.
38:53No matter what happens in the future,
38:54you must always remember.
38:55Only I will be completely devoted to you.
38:57I'll never lie to you.
38:58I'll always protect you.
38:59I believe you.
39:01I do believe you.
39:04But my mom really...
39:06I know where she is.
39:08I know where she is.
39:10She came back yesterday.
39:11She even disguised herself as a rouge peddler and peeked at me at the academy.
39:16Before leaving, she even cornered Amy to ask if I was engaged and if I had a good temper.
39:23Oh no, this is bad.
39:25Why would she peek at you there?
39:27This is embarrassing.
39:28Mom is being ridiculous.
39:31It's not embarrassing.
39:32In fact, I'm quite flattered.
39:34At least your mom cares about me.
39:37Albus White, right?
39:38I have a few questions for you.
39:40Answer honestly.
39:41Don't try to fool me.
39:42What's your background?
39:44Are your parents alive?
39:45What do you do for a living here?
39:46Well, Ms. Valerius, I am Albus White.
39:49My dad was a rogue mage in the West Hills.
39:50My mom died early.
39:51Having no one left to depend on, I came to Clearwater to open an academy.
39:54I teach students to make a living.
39:55What's your cultivation level?
39:56I sense spiritual energy ripples around you.
39:58You're not just a simple scholar.
40:00Besides, are you engaged?
40:02Do you like any girl?
40:04Mom, why ask so many questions?
40:06It's so rude.
40:07Albus is our guest.
40:09I'm asking your future husband.
40:10Don't make it complicated.
40:11Step aside.
40:12I'm checking him for you, so you don't end up being deceived.
40:16I am of little talent, just passing mystic stage.
40:19As for my personal life, I am not engaged.
40:22But I already have a girl in my heart.
40:25I came today to ask for your daughter, Aria Valerius, to marry me.
40:29Oh, bye!
40:33What are you saying?
40:36Who's marrying you?
40:40Are you sure?
40:42My daughter is...
40:43Never mind.
40:45You young people decide for yourselves.
40:46It's your decision to make.
40:48I won't meddle in this any further.
40:51Mom, how could you...
40:53What?
40:54Don't you want to marry him?
40:57It's been obvious that you've liked him for ages.
41:11Kiddo.
41:12Have you truly made up your mind to marry Albus?
41:16Albus treats me so well.
41:19Way better than certain people.
41:22Actually, His Majesty...
41:23Don't even mention him!
41:24He's a liar!
41:251-800-years!
41:26When he leaves seclusion, my very bones will have turned to ash!
41:31Okay, alright.
41:32We won't speak of him.
41:33As long as you're sure, I'll support you.
41:36Whatever you decide.
41:38I'll always be by your side.
41:48So beautiful.
41:50That's my girl.
41:51Awesome.
41:52In your bridal robes, you outshine any fairy.
41:56Mom, I'm a little scared.
41:58I'm afraid the future...
42:01Won't be what I imagine.
42:03I'm afraid he'll abandon me, like His Majesty did.
42:08Keep it on.
42:09His Majesty gave it to you back then.
42:11Even if he's not here, this necklace will keep you safe forever.
42:15Don't be afraid, kiddo.
42:17Mom will always be here.
42:19Albus will treat you well, too.
42:21Miss!
42:22The parade is here!
42:23Albus is waiting for you!
42:31Go now, my sweet girl.
42:33Your new life starts now.
42:50I have waited three years for this day.
42:53You're finally marrying me.
42:54Kiddo, take care of yourself.
42:56If he dares to bully you, send me a message, Rune.
42:58I'll burn his academy.
43:00Got it.
43:00Mom, you take care of yourself, too.
43:04Mom, you take care of yourself, too.
43:24You...
43:24Who are you?
43:25You're not Albus!
43:26Where is he?
43:27Arya, how have you been?
43:29That Albus you speak of.
43:31Ha ha ha.
43:31He was just a puppet conjured by my minion.
43:33I did this for the gold scale necklace and the precious blood in your body.
43:39Ah!
43:40Three years.
43:41You faked it for three whole years.
43:44To trick me.
43:46All for my blood in this necklace?
43:51It wasn't all an act.
43:53When I watched you care for that puppet daily, seeing you happy for him and blushing for him,
43:58I even got confused about who I am sometimes.
44:00I almost forgot I'm Orion, the prince from the Azure Sea instead of that mortal Albus.
44:07Ah!
44:07Don't rush.
44:08We can't break His Majesty's warding spell, but we can wait for you to take it off yourself.
44:13Or we can wait for it to lose its power.
44:16Then your precious blood will be mine.
44:25Waiting is the most foolish thing one can do.
44:27Mom, you were wrong this time.
44:30One, three and twenty-seven.
44:33One, three hundred and twenty-eight.
44:35One, three, twenty-nine.
44:37Mom!
44:38Please come quickly, I'm so scared.
44:45Aria, it is time for your meal.
44:47Don't starve yourself.
44:48Otherwise, your blood will taste bad.
44:50Get lost!
44:51I won't eat your food!
44:52You liars!
44:53Go to hell!
44:54Why the struggle, Aria?
44:55The more you resist, the more it will hurt later.
44:57Just be a good girl, and I might make it quick for you.
45:02Do you know what this is?
45:04It's a needle ground from the fiend bone.
45:06It is crafted specifically to break warding spells.
45:08With this, your phoenix shield is useless.
45:22So beautiful.
45:23The golden red heart blood of a phoenix.
45:25You were indeed fed on so many heavenly gifts.
45:26Brilliant.
45:27This will surely help me break through the limits of my lineage.
45:30What are you doing?
45:32Why do you need my heart blood?
45:34Shh!
45:35Don't speak.
45:36Save your strength.
45:36I'll need more tomorrow.
45:38For 49 days.
45:39Once I have enough of your heart blood, I can craft the apex elixir.
45:43By then, even Aurelius himself won't be able to stop me.
45:48Kiddo!
45:48Where is my kiddo?
45:59Narelius, I'll burn your palace to the ground.
46:05Fiona, what do you mean?
46:07When have we seen your daughter?
46:10Bullshit!
46:11Her scent is right down here!
46:23Despicable!
46:24Mom, run!
46:25Leave me!
46:30Take a good look, Arya.
46:32This is what happens to those who meddle in my business.
46:41My silly girl.
46:43Why didn't you summon me sooner?
46:45They blocked your message, Rune.
46:49Do you still have the necklace?
46:53Listen, when they take blood tomorrow, give me the necklace.
46:56No!
46:57It's from his majesty!
46:58That's exactly why it can save us.
47:01My true form plus his scale power can temporarily break the ward.
47:05Kiddo!
47:06I've never asked you for anything.
47:09Orion is so weak.
47:11He even needs a tool just to draw blood.
47:13What did you say?
47:16You...
47:19Oh no!
47:21Stop that, Phoenix!
47:29I'll settle the score with that jerk!
47:34Aurelius!
47:35Get out here!
47:37Your little phoenix is dying!
47:42His majesty is in seclusion.
47:43Intruders will be executed.
47:45Aurelius King!
47:46What did you promise me back then?
47:55Without the necklace's protection, this palace is so cold.
47:59Little phoenix, do you know why I need your heart blood?
48:02It's the key to making the apex elixir.
48:06Consuming it will allow me to transcend the limits of my lineage
48:09and transform me from a five-clawed dragon into a six-clawed one.
48:12In your dreams.
48:16I won't draw blood now.
48:18I'll drain your soul instead.
48:24His majesty.
48:36What's going on?
48:44What's going on?
48:56Your majesty.
48:58I'm here.
49:01I care not for the rights and wrongs.
49:04Let's see what your dragon clan can do.
49:29Bear with it.
49:36Mom.
49:38The necklace.
49:39Your mom is fine.
49:41As for the necklace.
49:47You are never allowed to take it off again.
49:53Weren't you in seclusion?
49:54I finished just in time.
49:57I told you before.
49:59Orion looked at you with nothing but ill intent.
50:04Don't move.
50:06Sleep now.
50:07You'll be home when you wake up.
50:14Your majesty.
50:16You are much more handsome than Albus.
50:20Be quiet.
50:21Save your strength to heal.
50:24I've waited for this embrace so long.
50:27Silly girl.
50:28You're such a handful.
50:33Hear my order.
50:34From this day forth.
50:36Arya Valerius shall reside in Zenith palace.
50:39And she shall be.
50:41Personally cared for by me.
