00:00My sister screamed for three days and sighed inside of the devil's seal before she died.
00:06No one came.
00:08My parents were too busy throwing a banquet for Lilith, the orphan they loved more than their own blood.
00:15And my husband? He was in Lilith's bed.
00:18For five years I tore this world apart looking for my elder sister Sophia.
00:23They told me she vanished. They told me she left willingly.
00:26They told me to stop asking questions and be grateful. Grateful that Lilith sacrificed her flesh and blood to seal
00:33the devil's lies.
00:34Every word built on my sister's bones.
00:37Sophia didn't vanish. She was sealed alive inside the devil's abbess.
00:42Her soul devoured. Her screams swallowed by darkness.
00:46And above her grave, Lilith smiled for the crowd and played the saint.
00:52Filled with rage and determined to avenge her, I suddenly heard her voice.
00:57Elara, I have returned to the Celestial Kingdom.
01:00Hurry and die, so you can come back too.
01:03My memories flooded back an instant.
01:06Good thanks to her reminder.
01:08I had truly forgotten.
01:11I was an ancient archangel.
01:14Descending to the mortal realm to undergo a divine trial.
01:17Yet I believed I was just a native of this world.
01:20I had failed my love trial, but I still had to uphold my sacred duty.
01:24I decided to do one last good deed before I die.
01:27Seal the devils completely.
01:29As I approached the devil's seal, I received voice transmissions from my husband and parents.
01:33Drama queen.
01:34You've come up with such a foolish trick.
01:37Just trying to imitate Lilith by sealing devils.
01:40Step into the seal and you'll die for sure.
01:42Dare you really go through with it?
01:44It was that Lilith again.
01:46For her, everyone had lost their mind.
01:49I touched the time-hearing crystal in my arms and stepped boldly into the seal.
01:57A dragon general could not help but urge me.
02:00He's only taking a mistress.
02:02You will still be his only official wife.
02:07Even if you're angry, you don't have to risk your life.
02:10Just to spite his pine as the crown prince.
02:13I'm really not doing this for him.
02:15My words were sincere, yet no one believed me.
02:18Everyone assumed I was furious that Alexander was taking Lilith as his mistress.
02:23Staking my life to put on a grand show and ruin Lilith's happiness.
02:27I was no longer Alara, the mortal princess consumed by love.
02:31As I stepped closer and closer to the seal, the communication amulet at my waist suddenly lit up.
02:39You'll stop at nothing to prevent me from marrying Lilith.
02:44Lilith's father saved your knave.
02:46Five years ago, she sacrificed her sure flesh and blood to seal the devils.
02:51She's in poor health.
02:53Only when you'll wister with me, just as a Mordens.
02:56We abuse you leave her in a peace.
02:58On our winding day, you threaten me with your life and drive away from the Belle, Ren, Gui, and Longzous,
03:05humiliating Lilith.
03:06Alara, I hope you really dare to die.
03:13Alara, I hope you really dare to die.
03:16Or I'll lose all respect for you.
03:19His voice was furious, almost a snar, and alongside it came Lilith's sobbing, pitiful whimpers.
03:26Alara, you and your sister Sophia are truly siblings.
03:29She was lead and shameless, abandoning righteousness for a man and fleeing during the prayer ceremony, forcing Lilith to sacrifice
03:35her flesh and blood.
03:36And you, following her example, consumed by jealousy, humiliating her on her wedding day.
03:40I give you one last chance.
03:43Return with the guests to the wedding, and kneel to apologize to Lilith.
03:49Or else.
03:51He ground his teeth.
03:52Malice is dripping from his voice.
03:54Even if you are a princess, I will still divorce you.
03:59Alara, stop this farce.
04:03You're just as hypocritical as your worthless sister.
04:06I've had the worst luck.
04:09Both my own daughters, Borat, are vicious and despicable.
04:16Ungrateful Wret.
04:18Lilith's father saved your lives.
04:23A sharp pain pierced my heart, and I trembled with anger.
04:28Even though I knew this was only a love trial, the love and pain I felt were real.
04:32My elder sister Sophia had died in the Devil's Seal in this life five years ago and still bore such
04:38vile slander.
04:39During the great war between angels and devils, my sister and I fought side by side.
04:45But General Blackwood was distracted, and later died carelessly in battle.
04:50When we returned to the Angelic Realm, a rumor spread for no reason.
04:53General Blackwood had died on the battlefield saving the two princesses.
04:56Everyone mourns General Blackwood.
04:58No one will believe you if you say he didn't save you.
05:01Lilith, the hero's daughter, fainted at his funeral, sending everyone's sympathy soaring.
05:06Under public pressure, I will adopt Lilith.
05:08But rest assured, I know the truth.
05:11He said Lilith could never compare to my sister and me.
05:15But as days turned to months, the adopted daughter eventually overshadowed his own flesh and blood.
05:21But General Blackwood never saved us.
05:23You call my sister and I vicious and dispillable.
05:25Then what about the Blackwood family?
05:27Have you lied so much, pretended for so long, that falsehood has become true?
05:31My father's scolding fell silence, and the other end of the communication amulet went dead quiet.
05:35The princess is denying my father's life-saving grace!
05:39It's my fault!
05:40I angered the princess and tarnished my dead father's reputation.
05:46My father devoted his life to the Angelic Realm.
05:49He cannot bear the princess's slander.
05:52You hate my husband for loving me and jeetled me.
05:55I can ginsho, but I never tolerate you, Sander, my father.
05:58I will give my life to defend my father's innocence!
06:07Enough!
06:07Alar, you've lost your mind to jealousy.
06:09Everyone knows General Blackwood saved you.
06:11How dare you speak such nonsense!
06:13Lilith has fainted from grief.
06:15Return at once and fix this mess.
06:17Do you want your father and I to be shamed for mistreating the hero's daughter?
06:20It was my own weakness.
06:22Having lived for 10,000 years, I had fallen to a love trial.
06:25Family love and romantic love, I had gained neither.
06:28Let's go.
06:29I had not walked far, when shouts erupted behind me.
06:33Deadly attacks rained down from the sky.
06:36Traitors!
06:37Witch!
06:38Drop deed!
06:39Ungrateful monster!
06:40You don't deserve to live!
06:42How tragic that General Blackwood died for saving someone like you!
06:46He should never have saved you!
06:47You repay kindness with cruelty and bully the hero's daughter!
06:50We'll avenge Miss Lilith!
06:51These men had all served under General Blackwood.
06:54They had attended Limith's wedding and heard my words through the communication amulet.
06:58Filled with righteous indignation, they rushed to defend Limith.
07:01More and more people swarmed to attack me.
07:04Sword blades sliced my arm, whip blasted my body.
07:07He never saved me!
07:09The Blackwood family are the liars!
07:11Even now you won't tell the truth?
07:13Don't you really know if my sister is dead or fled?
07:16I'm being cursed and attacked, don't you feel even a shred of pity?
07:18I found the secret letter my sister left me!
07:20The Blackwood family colluded with-
07:22Silence!
07:23I'll beat you to death, you ranting monster!
07:28I'll beat you to death, you ranting monster!
07:31Yet the pain on my face was not even a hundredth of the pain in my heart.
07:36My mother was this agitated.
07:38Why would she not let me finish speaking?
07:40I stared at her, covering my stinging cheek, and saw a flash of guilt cross her face and my father's.
07:46Before I regained my angelic memories, I had loved my parents in this life with all my heart.
07:52Even when they favored Lilith, I had made endless excuses for them.
07:56But now, I understood everything.
07:59Very well, let's say I'm ranting nonsense.
08:01I only ask you do not stop me from sealing the devils and give the innocent a chance to live.
08:06The moment I finished, my father waved his hand and knocked me micently to the ground.
08:11Even now you still refuse to yield.
08:13What ability do you have to seal the devils?
08:15Last time, your sister boasted the same, vowing to pray and seal the devils.
08:19And what happened?
08:20She fled that very day.
08:21Only Lilith sacrificed her flesh and blood to save us all.
08:25Now you'll make the same fool of yourself.
08:30My sister did not flee.
08:32The day before, she said she had a secret about the Blackwood family to reveal at the prayer ceremony.
08:38The next day, Sophia vanished.
08:40Too much of a coincidence.
08:42Everyone claimed she had run away.
08:44Even her husband, Lucien, refused to believe her.
08:47Lilith became the hero who saved everyone.
08:49And my sister, Sophia, cursed by thousands.
08:53Stripped of her title as princess, Lucien became Lilith's loyal lap hog.
08:59I realized this lifetime of love and hate was nothing but a trial of family and love.
09:04We had both failed.
09:05No one truly loved us.
09:07No one trusted us.
09:08Before returning to the Celestial Kingdom, sealing the devils was the last thing I could do for this world.
09:14Speak one more word slandering Lilith and the Blackwood family and I will divorce you.
09:20Elara, I give you one final chance.
09:23Kneel and apologize to Lilith and General Blackwood's spirit.
09:27War looked at him calmly and sneered.
09:29Then divorce me.
09:31Before he could react, I tore the engagement ring through my finger and smashed it violently to the ground.
09:39From this day on, all ties between us are severed just like this ring.
09:45To regain my freedom before death, it was a small comfort.
09:53How far will you go?
09:55How could you break our engagement ring so easily?
09:58On our wedding day, we each held a matching ring, dripped our blood onto it, and swore love for three
10:03lifetimes.
10:04I'm not acting out.
10:06I mean every word.
10:08Alexander, if you love Lilith, why bind me to you for three lifetimes?
10:14And this heart, beating in my chest.
10:17Years ago, I had been injured and stranded in the Eastern Sea.
10:21Alexander had saved me, placing a dragon crystal he had cultivated for half his lifetime, inside my heart to heal
10:27my body.
10:29I had once thought this was proof of his love.
10:32On countless nights of heartache and sorrow.
10:37It's time to give it back.
10:42I stabbed the dagger deep into my chest, and a glowing dragon crystal appeared in my hand.
10:51Uncontrollable blood burst from my mouth, soaking my robes.
10:55Allura!
10:57How could you be so reckless?
10:59All you had to do was kneel and apologize.
11:00Why hurt yourself like this?
11:02Even if I take Limith, you will still be my only wife.
11:05No wonder he misunderstood.
11:07Everyone had seen how deeply I once loved him.
11:10The angelic realm respected strength above all, regardless of gender.
11:13In this life, I had been born with extraordinary angelic power.
11:16Barring accident, I would have been the next empress of the angelic realm.
11:20Yet after traveling to the Eastern Sea for training, I had stubbornly insisted on marrying.
11:24I gave up my title as future empress to become the crown princess of the dragon climb,
11:29devoting myself to husband and children, spending my life with Alexander.
11:34I endured the confusion and mockery of my clan, telling myself countless times,
11:39as long as I could be with Alexander, everything was worth it.
11:46Princess Allura, why do you hate me so much that you threaten my foster parents and husband with your life?
11:52My father died for you, yet I bear you no grudge.
11:55A shadow flashed across her eyes, gone in an instant.
11:59Very well, you are a princess, I dare compete.
12:02Let me day and everyone will be at peace.
12:05Her eyes reddened and she pressed a dagger to her wrist.
12:10Lilith!
12:11My mother screamed and rushed to hold her, while my father kicked me hard.
12:17You won't rest until you've killed us!
12:20Must you drive Lilith to her death?
12:23Die if you want, but don't harm Lilith!
12:26I collapsed to the ground, my vision darking.
12:29My father had used his full strength.
12:31Without the dragon crystal protecting me, my heart veins were fragile,
12:35and I trembled in agony.
12:36Through blurry eyes, I watched my parents and husband crowd around Lilith.
12:44Princess Allura, perhaps you should stop this.
12:46They've left.
12:47Someone beside me sighed, pity in their voice.
12:49I forced a bitter smile and struggled to stand.
12:52Let them leave!
12:53I truly came to seal the devils.
12:56I'm not putting on a show for them.
12:57At that moment, the devil's seal roared loudly,
13:00cracks tearing outward in all directions,
13:02the runes fading in an instant.
13:04Chilling winds howled.
13:05Sand and stones flying.
13:14No!
13:15The devils are about to break free!
13:17Archangel Emperor, bring Lilith back at once!
13:20The seal is breaking!
13:21We need to reseal it!
13:23Devil King, are you also joining my worthless daughter's nonsense?
13:27Just left, the seal was perfectly stable.
13:32The seal is cracking!
13:33Your daughter, Allura, is going to sacrifice herself to seal it!
13:37Can you really bear that?
13:38Last time, Lilith gave only a little blood and sealed the devils.
13:41If she sacrifices a drop more, your daughter won't have to die!
13:45Can't you tell what's more important?
13:46Lilith has suffered enough today.
13:48How much longer will Allura bully her?
13:50Let her die if she wishes!
13:52Empress!
13:53Princess Allura is your own daughter!
13:55Can you really bear this?
13:57Your drop for the blood!
13:59Adaptive daughter or the life of life of their daughter!
14:01Which matters more?
14:02My mother's voice cut through, cold and clear.
14:07Lilith matters more.
14:13My heart shattered.
14:15I stepped without hesitation into the devil's seal.
14:19Princess Allura!
14:21Panicked shouts rang out behind me.
14:24My flesh and blood turned to golden threads,
14:27wrapping tightly around the sealing wounds,
14:29forcibly restraining the raging devils.
14:32I could feel my life fading rapidly.
14:34My consciousness slipping away until everything went dark.
14:37Come home, Allura.
14:41Come home, Allura.
14:43The devils shrieked in rage,
14:46demonic energy swirling and roaring in defiance,
14:49before being dragged back into the earth.
14:51At the same time,
14:53Alexander, holding Lilith, froze abruptly.
14:56The wedding ring he wore on his finger shattered into dust.
15:00The archangel emperor and ventress felt a sharp pain in their souls.
15:07The soul lamps linked to their daughters had gone out completely.
15:12What's happening?
15:13Allura is hurt.
15:14She really entered the seal?
15:15She was always cowardly and afraid to death,
15:18giving up her angelic throne just to be my wife.
15:21How could she truly sacrifice herself?
15:23Impossible.
15:24They raced back to the devil's seal in a frenzy,
15:28only to find the leaders of the five clans standing there, grief-stricken.
15:33None had believed I would truly seal the devils, or give my life to do so.
15:38If only we had stood up for her when they cursed and hurt her.
15:43Yes, she was in such pain, and she cried until the very end.
15:48How much did she pay you to lie?
15:51This is all an act! I know it's fake!
15:54Now you panic.
15:55I told you again and again she was sacrificing herself, that she would die.
15:59What did you say? Tell her to die!
16:02I've heard that angelic children are bound to their parents by soul lamps from birth.
16:07You know better than anyone if she's dead.
16:10My parents turned pale as snow.
16:15Silence fell over the world.
16:18Impossible.
16:19How could she...
16:21How could she bear to die?
16:24She must be angry that I'm marrying Lilith.
16:27Soul lamps!
16:28Allura has great power.
16:30She must have tricked us.
16:32A prank. She's always just...
16:34Yes.
16:34Both sisters are naughty.
16:36When Sophia fled before, she faked her soul lamp going out to scare us.
16:41When they come back, I'll punish them severely.
16:45How dare they do this!
16:47Foster father, foster mother, it's all my fault.
16:51If not for me, Alara and Sophia wouldn't have done this.
16:54I shouldn't have lived.
16:56Let me die to atone.
16:57This is not your fault.
16:58Your father saved their lives, yet they were jealous and cruel to you.
17:05Alexander Wright, you deserve to live.
17:07They were willful and reckless.
17:09This is not your fault.
17:11They huddled together, crying and consoling one another, unaware of the disgusted stares around them.
17:17I can't watch this any longer.
17:19Archangel Emperor, your daughter sacrificed herself to save the world and seal the devils, and you call her willful and
17:25reckless?
17:25Even if Lilith is a hero's daughter, how can you favor her this much?
17:29Which one is your adopted daughter, and which is your own flesh and blood?
17:39My daughter had always lied, cowardly and selfish.
17:43You've been tricked.
17:44She would never sacrifice herself.
17:46She's not dead.
17:47She's not dead.
17:49She's hiding somewhere, watching us grieve.
17:53A clod of mud slammed into my mother's face, silencing her bitter words.
17:58A clod of mud slammed into my mother's face, silencing her bitter words.
18:03More filth and stones rained down on my parents and Alexander.
18:06We watched her step into the seal.
18:08She didn't hesitate, not even turning back.
18:12She truly meant to give her life.
18:15Feel the runes on the seal.
18:17Can't you feel your daughter's flesh and blood woven into them?
18:23My mother was forced to the edge of the seal, trembling as she reached out.
18:27The moment her fingers touched the wounds, golden light blazed, the flesh and blood retinacnizing its mother.
18:34My mother froze, terror twisting her face.
18:38The mother froze, terror twisting her face.
18:42Seeing her reaction, Alexander's face contorted.
18:46He channeled all his spiritual power.
18:48Clearing the mist above the seal, scanning desperately.
18:52Until at the very core, he spotted a lifelike marble statue.
18:56Angelic marble bone those who die in sacrifice turned to stone.
18:59The statue at the heart of the seal had a peaceful face, eyes gently closed.
19:02It was me.
19:03Golden threads woven from my flesh, blood, and angelic power formed a death's net.
19:08Trapping the roaring devil's feet under the ground.
19:12It's my Alara.
19:13Not far from my statue stood another faded marble carving.
19:18When my mother saw it, her composure shattered completely.
19:22It's my Sophia!
19:24She lunged madly toward the seal.
19:27My daughters!
19:28Both my daughters are dead!
19:31You'll die too if you go in!
19:34My father held her back tightly, his face grim.
19:37I'd rather die!
19:42My mother screamed, biting and scratching him.
19:49Why does it hurt you?
19:52You told me Sophia was alive, that she faked her soul lamp, that she fled.
19:56She never ran.
19:58She died in the seal.
20:02What were you thinking?
20:04Why did you lie to me?
20:05She collapsed to the ground, beating her chest and wailing.
20:12Both my daughters, neither survived!
20:16My father clenched his fists.
20:19Agony etched on his face.
20:21I suspected.
20:22But I never thought she was truly dead.
20:25I only ignored it to keep my throne stable.
20:28Everyone had celebrated Lilith's heroic sealing of the devils.
20:33My father had wanted the scandal of Sophia's supposed desertion buried.
20:38He did not want to investigate.
20:41He dared not investigate.
20:44He had accepted the lie that Sophia had fled selfishly.
20:49You knew?
20:50You suspected and did nothing?
20:53A figure lunged forward, roaring at my father.
20:56It was Lucian, my sister's husband.
20:59How could you ignore your own daughter's fate?
21:01How could you ignore your own daughter's fate?
21:03If you hadn't lied, I would never have believed Sophia was so selfish.
21:11He shoved my father, grief and rage consuming him.
21:15Sophia died sealing the devils.
21:17And I cursed and despised her every day after.
21:20My father stumbled back, snarling in anger.
21:24Don't blame me.
21:25If you truly loved her, you wouldn't have believed such ridiculous rumors.
21:30He turned to my mother.
21:32And you rage at me now.
21:34But you helped hide the truth and favor Limith every step of the way.
21:42Now you face the consequence.
21:45Wait!
21:46The Ghost King, silent until now, let out a cold laugh.
21:50I'm still confused.
21:52What secrets has the angelic realm hidden?
21:55Princess Alara sacrificed herself for justice.
21:58We must avenge her wrongs.
22:00The crowd surrounded them.
22:02And Princess Sophia in the seal.
22:04What truly happened to her?
22:06Faced with the furious mob, my father shouted darkly.
22:10What do you want?
22:12This is angelic clan business.
22:14None of your concern.
22:15At that moment, blazing golden light burst above the seal.
22:19At that moment, blazing golden light burst above the seal.
22:25A low, resonant hum cut through space and time.
22:28And an ancient round mirror hovered in the sky.
22:31The time-viewing crystal I had brought into the seal had finally absorbed Sophia's remaining flesh and blood.
22:39Unraveling the past, revealing the truth.
22:41Light and color rewinded rapidly in the mirror until the scene froze, clear and steady.
22:50Lilith, I know everything.
22:52Sophia's voice rang out.
22:54Your father colluded with the devil clan, plunging the three realms into chaos and death.
22:59Silence fell over the entire world.
23:02Everyone stared in shock at the mirror's vision.
23:06It was the night before the prayer ceremony, one year prior.
23:09Sophia's face burned with fury as she pointed at Lilith.
23:12No wonder General Blackwood was distracted during the war.
23:16He never wanted us to win.
23:18Do you know how many died in that battle?
23:21We tolerated you pretending to be our savior.
23:24But your father colluded with devils?
23:27A criminal of the three realms, yet you wear the mask of a hero and worshipped by all.
23:32The Blackwood family has no shame.
23:35Lilith in the mirror smiled sweetly, but cruelty glinted in her eyes.
23:39I underestimated you.
23:42I give you two choices.
23:44Confess your father's crimes to everyone, or I will expose everything at the prayer ceremony tomorrow.
23:52I choose neither.
23:54Guess whether your father and mother already know.
23:57Guess whether your father and mother already know.
24:00The crowd outside the seal stared in shock at my parents.
24:05I'll give you two choices instead.
24:09She patted Sophia's cheek, tempt you intemptuously, and stabbed a dagger into her chest.
24:16Your husband Lucian has been poisoned by me.
24:20Step willingly into the devil's seal, I'll cure him.
24:24You care so much for the people.
24:26Well, the devils need sealing.
24:29A noble angelic princess like you is far more useful than your prayers.
24:33Go.
24:34Save your husband.
24:36Seal the devils.
24:37Save the world.
24:38Or your parents will die, too.
24:40The strange dagger pinned Sophia in place, unable to move.
24:44Lilith dragged her to the seal, and pushed her inside.
24:49Such precious angelic bones.
24:52What a waste not to use them.
24:54The prayer ceremony, where everyone condemned Sophia for deserting her post.
24:59My father was a hero, and I, too, will sacrifice my flesh and blood to seal the devils.
25:07But when she cut her flesh and tossed the blood into the seal,
25:12Sophia inside exploded into flesh and blood, sealing the devils.
25:24Outside the seal, the crowd cheered, kneeling to thank Lilith for her sacrifice,
25:29while a look of triumph flashed across her face, gone in an instant.
25:36I'll kill you!
25:46I was blind!
25:48I believed your lies, and hurt Sophia all these years!
25:52You used my life to threaten her and kill her!
25:55He screamed and wept, despair and regret crushing him.
25:59It was my fault.
26:01She died for me.
26:02Sophia was always righteous, loved me deeply.
26:05I was a fool to doubt her!
26:08Calm down.
26:09Even if she's guilty, the Archangel Emperor must judge her.
26:12You have no right to kill her.
26:15Archangel Emperor?
26:17Didn't you hear?
26:18He knew the Blackwood family lied from the start!
26:21He deceived everyone!
26:22He gasped for breath, chest heaving.
26:25You were all blinded by her!
26:27I saw how you favored Limith and tormented Ellara!
26:31I did the same to Sophia!
26:33Alexander, now you know she's a vile monster!
26:36Will you still protect her?
26:37It's different.
26:39Ellara wasn't killed by Lilith.
26:42Lucian ignored him and slammed his palm into Lilith's chest.
26:46She flew backward, crashing into the time-viewing's crystal,
26:49and spit a mouthful of blood.
26:52Elizabeth, save me.
26:57Alexander stared at her pitiful face, ready to move.
27:02When the mirror flickered and shifted again, they created us.
27:06How could our heroic Blackwood family produce a traitor who colludes with devils?
27:09You've killed so many, how can I face the world?
27:12Commoners are worthless.
27:14Their deaths mean nothing.
27:16When the Devil Lord succeeds, I'll be the Devil Queen.
27:21Who dares judge me?
27:24It wasn't your father who colluded with devils!
27:26It was you!
27:28I always thought you were innocent, hurt by your father's crimes,
27:32and I pitied you, favored you.
27:34No wonder your father confessed to colluding with devils!
27:38He was covering for you!
27:39General Blackwell had sent a secret letter to my father before his death,
27:43admitting his own supposed crimes,
27:45and begging the Archangel Emperor to spare his daughter.
27:53Lilith is kind and pure.
27:54She could never collusion with devils.
27:57There must be a mistake!
27:58Impossible!
27:59Your Highness, wake up!
28:00Look how she killed!
28:01She called commoners worthless,
28:03bragged about becoming Devil Queen,
28:05and aiding the Devil Lord.
28:06My father and brother died in that war!
28:08I'll kill this monster!
28:09Me too!
28:09My family perished!
28:11Count me in!
28:11I'm a commoner, worthless as they say!
28:13I'll die with her!
28:14And the Archangel Emperor and Empress,
28:17hiding the truth,
28:19conspying with this witch!
28:21It was my fault.
28:22My father was pinned to the ground,
28:24tears streaming down his face.
28:26The general colluded with devils under my rule,
28:28and I feared being called incompetent.
28:30I didn't want the scandal, so I hid the truth.
28:32I never thought a small lie would lead to all this.
28:34My mother clutched her chest,
28:36sobbing hysterically.
28:37My two daughters are both dead!
28:39I was weak!
28:41My eldest daughter was murdered,
28:42and I didn't seek the truth.
28:44I lied and cursed her,
28:45and forced my youngest to die to avenge her.
28:48It's all your fault!
28:49She lunged at the beaten Lilith,
28:51and bit off her ear.
28:53What did we ever do to you?
28:54Your father confessed.
28:56We took you in,
28:57loved you,
28:58what more did you want?
28:59Why did you hurt my girl?
29:01If you hadn't targeted them,
29:02Sophia would never have investigated you,
29:04and she might still be alive.
29:07Lilith,
29:08why did you collude with devils?
29:11As long as the real daughters live,
29:14the adopted one can never rise.
29:16I, Lilith,
29:17am no less than them!
29:18Why were they born princesses,
29:20married to such powerful men?
29:22So what if I colluded with devils?
29:24They promised me the throne of Devil Queen.
29:26I don't care how many die.
29:28As long as I win,
29:31nothing else matters!
29:32My father was a fool,
29:35but I'm different.
29:36Then I found a better way.
29:39Remove Alara and Sophia,
29:40and the angelic realm will be mine.
29:43The dragon clan too.
29:46The dragon clan too.
29:48Alara was smart enough to die on her own.
29:50I would have killed her anyway.
29:55Her laughter was drowned out by the mob's attacks.
29:58My parents were stripped of their thrones
29:59and imprisoned in purgatory.
30:01They had abandoned their daughters for power,
30:03only to lose everything in the end.
30:05Day after day,
30:06they toiled in purgatory,
30:07paying for their sins.
30:09Lucian melt outside the Devil's Seal every day,
30:12repenting,
30:12drinking himself into a flazzer,
30:14crying Sophia's name with a wine bottle in his arms.
30:18Sophia!
30:19This is all Elidra left me.
30:20It holds our oath.
30:22If I can fix it,
30:23she loved me so deeply she'll forgive me.
30:25Alexander blinded by lust,
30:27was stripped of his title as dragon crown prince,
30:29but he seemed not to care.
30:30He spent every day holding shards of the engagement ring,
30:33trying to glue them back together.
30:35Turn it off.
30:50After returning to the Celestial Kingdom,
30:52I finally saw Sophia again.
30:55Ancient angels dwelled in the Celestial Kingdom,
30:58seemingly lofty and untouchable,
31:00yet bound by the invisible laws of heaven.
31:02Our path of cultivation was tangled with heavy karma.
31:05Descending to the Man-Lamb to undergo trials,
31:07living among humans,
31:08could purify our angel hearts.
31:10Devils ran parampus in this world,
31:12so we chose to descend,
31:14not only to undergo trials,
31:16but also to seal the devils.
31:18A perfect plan.
31:19We had thought it simple,
31:21back then,
31:22though most of our angelic power
31:24would be sealed in the mortal realm.
31:26If we lived peaceful lives there,
31:28when our trials ended,
31:30and we died of natural causes,
31:32our remaining angelic power
31:34would be enough to seal the devils forever.
31:37But no one could have foreseen,
31:39you don't have to grieve.
31:41I've let it all go.
31:43Sophia patted my hand.
31:44We've survived life and death trials,
31:46witnessed pure good and evil,
31:48but this time,
31:49it was a love trial.
31:50Being an angel for so long,
31:52I forgot how twisted and flaky nature can be.
31:55Failing this trial is a blessing in disguise.
31:57We could not linger.
31:59Having failed our love trial,
32:00a new one would come soon.
32:02It is a blessing.
32:03We both sacrificed ourselves to seal the devils,
32:06and heaven has recognized our virtue.
32:10We failed this trial of family and love,
32:13but we've been rewarded.
32:14Our next love trial will be happy and peaceful.
32:17Heaven was always fair.
32:19Furthermore,
32:20everyone who hurt us,
32:21our mortal parents,
32:23Lucian Alexander,
32:25will be punished by heaven
32:26for the rest of their lives.
32:27They will suffer in life
32:29and be cast into the deepest hell after death.
32:32They would fall into eternal torment.
32:35A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.
32:39Our next love trial was perfect.
32:42Sophia and I both had loving husbands
32:44and devoted parents,
32:45living happy, peaceful lives.
32:48When we return to the celestial kingdom once more,
32:51our angelic power had grown even stronger.
32:54Come.
32:55It's time to cut all remaining karma.
32:59We return to the mortal realm once more.
33:03The devils in the devil's seal lay dormant,
33:06and the sight outside took our breath away.
33:09The seal was covered in fresh flowers and offerings
33:12left by grateful mortals over the past century.
33:16The blooms were vibrant,
33:17the food fresh,
33:19clearly replaced often.
33:21Nearby stood several simple fapped huts.
33:24Lucian and Alexander lived there,
33:26staring blankly at the marble statues in the seal.
33:30The two women stood before the seal,
33:32their eyes sweeping over the thapped huts and the flowers.
33:35They spotted us the moment we appeared.
33:38Alara!
33:38Alara, you've finally returned.
33:40I knew if I fixed the ring, you'd come back.
33:43Sophia,
33:44you've come to see me,
33:46which means you've forgiven me, right?
33:48Their shouts roused the others in the huts.
33:50The door creaked open,
33:51and my aged, freel parents stumbled out.
33:54My daughters have returned.
33:57Mother knew you'd always come back to see us.
34:00We came to sever all ties with this mortal life.
34:03When two archangels descended to you,
34:05you could have gained divinity and ascended
34:06if we'd succeeded in our trials,
34:08but you destroyed everything.
34:09The marble statues had sat in the seal for a century,
34:11cold and unyielding.
34:12It's time to take back everything.
34:14The devils are sealed,
34:15and the divine protection for this world is over.
34:17The statues turned to glowing light in our hands,
34:20fading into the sky.
34:21At the same time,
34:22the ground beneath their feet vanished,
34:23and the bitter winds of hell swept over them.
34:26Good deeds bring virtue.
34:27Evil deeds bring sin.
34:28All judged by heaven's law.
34:30Sophia and I took one last look at this mortal world,
34:32then turned and left.
34:34In the celestial kingdom atop the sea of clouds,
34:36our trials complete,
34:37our hearts pure.
34:38We walked barefoot on starlight and mist,
34:40listening to the whispers of countless mortal realms.
34:43All living things warm and bright,
34:45clear and peaceful at last.
