02:58sister i realized it instantly he was reborn to gods you may choose your partners the high king announced
03:06the start of the ceremony in my last life chiron was the first to choose he walked straight to me
03:13and picked me instantly but this time he walked straight to my sister leah father i wish to marry
03:19princess leah of the elf clan chynron are you sure yes father my mind is made up my sister was
03:25overjoyed
03:26she grabbed chiron's hand only then did chiron turn to look at me as if by accident his eyes were
03:33like a knife stabbing deep into my heart suddenly a warm hand grabbed my wrist i turned around and
03:39looked into a pair of dark ink colored eyes he held my wrist high and announced to everyone i want
03:46her
03:48no one expected leon the proud god of fire to choose me chiron's face darkened leon don't say i
03:55didn't warn you choosing such a weak elf princess as your wife will only lead to regret later my chest
04:02tightened and i wanted to speak but leon's hand slid down and gripped mine firmly chiron worry about
04:09your own partner and stay out of my business i like this elf girl whether she is weak or her
04:14aura
04:15damaged i find her charming i'm taking her my heart skipped a beat no one had ever chosen me so
04:20firmly
04:21everyone else was stunned too then the queen laughed behind her hand breaking the awkward silence
04:28leon has always been like this if he likes her let them be together leon was the favorite child
04:34and the king and queen spoiled him deeply beside us chiron glared at me and let out a cold laugh
04:40leon
04:41who would want such a useless piece of trap in less than a hundred years you'll hate her i'll be
04:46waiting
04:47to see the day you cry and regret my older sister and i returned to the elf realm to wait
04:51for our
04:52wedding on the wedding day leah came to my room she looked at my thin poor dowry and mocked me
04:58ella
04:59even we both marrying gods you are still just a lowly elf you must remember i am marrying the future
05:06king while you are marrying a god with a violent temper don't come crying to me when you suffer in
05:12the
05:12god realm i don't want to deal with you i looked at leah's arrogant face and laughed inside my dear
05:17sister i hope you never experienced the pain i felt in my last life my sister and i were both
05:24married
05:24into the god realm as the eldest son of the king chiron's wedding was incredibly grand leah's wedding
05:31was spectacular everyone in the elf and human realms praised her they said she had reached the heavens and
05:39would one day be queen bringing luck to the world i looked up at leah sitting on the back of
05:45a divine
05:45beast with chiron but i felt no envy at all in my last life i was the one in that
05:52spot back then i
05:55naively thought chiron was perfect and that we would be happy forever while i was lost in thought the shadow
06:03of a giant black dragon suddenly appeared in the sky the dragon's roar shook the world and pierced through
06:10the clouds the crowd gasped in shock until the dragon landed in front of me and turned into a man
06:16leon wore
06:17a long black robe he reached out grabbed my waist and pulled me tightly into his arms then right in
06:25front
06:25of everyone he gave me a firm kiss on my cheek forget those boring rituals come with me suddenly i
06:32was
06:33lifted off my feet under the gaze of the entire elf realm leon carried me straight up to the god
06:38realm
06:40chiron and leah's spotlight was completely stolen leon was deeply loved by the king and queen
06:45and his palace sat in the most beautiful spot in the realm after bringing me back leon said
06:51ella from now on this is your home my heart suddenly felt tight and emotional
06:59since my mother passed away i haven't had a home the leon in front of me was not as arrogant
07:05as the legend said i remembered in my last life whenever he appeared with leah he always seemed
07:12distracted and impatient there were even rumors among the maids that leah only got pregnant so fast
07:18because she used love spells but back then i was too worried about my own life to care about their
07:26relationship i used to think leon was hard to get along with but now i see that isn't true he
07:32is taller
07:33and more handsome than chiron when he looks at me his dark eyes are always bright almost as if
07:41as if he has been looking at me like this for a long time my cheeks turned bright red leon
07:48smiled
07:48and gently tilted my chin up
07:55suddenly the voice of a soldier came from outside
07:59lord leon typhon has escaped from the abyss
08:04wait for me he whispered before turning toward the battlefield i watched him go my heart a swirl
08:11of unspoken emotions meanwhile rumors spread of chiron and leah's perfect romance chiron showered
08:19her with rare herbs and accompanied her home in a display of public devotion
08:24naturally the people of the elf realm didn't miss the chance to mock me
08:29what was the point of that flashy wedding she's just a lonely widow in a big house now how pathetic
08:37no one came to serve my palace since leon left likely on someone's orders aside from my two original
08:44maids i was left entirely alone even the standard offerings of celestial herbs and spirit stones
08:50vanished without a trace but i didn't care my palace was full of treasures leon told me to use freely
08:56having been weak since my mother's death i finally began to heal using the divine herbs
09:02daily i repaired my cracked core within years my sickly pale skin began to glow even my maids
09:09noticed ella is becoming so radiant lord leon will be enchanted when he returns i blushed at the thought
09:15but leon had yet to return soon a dark rumor began to circulate throughout god realm they whispered
09:22that princess ella carried fire curse that would bring ruin to her partner and that leon might never
09:30return from the abyss because of it the tension surrounding me and the fire palace finally reached
09:40a breaking point at a grand feast organized by chiron i hadn't planned on attending but my sister leah
09:45sent a formal invitation claiming that with leon away it was my duty to represent him i had no choice
09:52but to
09:52go i had my maids craft a sweeping black robe and pulled my soft flowing hair into a high sharp
09:58ponytail
10:00i looked like a mirror image of leon himself
10:03when i arrived the entire hall fell silent in shock
10:08leah however did not look well after these few years her face had an unnatural flush her figure was
10:15bloated and her eyes were clouded with exhaustion when she saw me her gaze instantly
10:20filled with malice and envy ella i didn't expect you to thrive so much while leon is missing i smiled
10:29calmly sister you flatter me i am simply waiting for my husband's return at that moment chiron who had
10:37been staring at me in silence suddenly spoke husband how affectionately you call him my expression remained
10:44unshaking as i met his face chiron surely reject leon and i are wed husband is the only natural title
10:52as soon as those words left my mouth chiron's expression turned deathly cold even leah noticed
10:59something was wrong chiron what is the meaning of this to everyone's shock chiron violently shook off her hand
11:09he stared at me ella do you truly think marrying a warm warring god of fire gave you a good
11:16home
11:18how can you even compare to leah and how can leon possibly compare to me the entire hall fell into
11:25a
11:25stunned silence in the quiet i let out a soft laugh kynon leon has never cared to compare himself to
11:33you
11:33and there is no need to compare me to my sister but as the eldest brother it is improper for
11:41you
11:41to speak el of my husband in my presence with that i turned to leave but my words seemed to
11:48snap
11:49chiron's restraint entirely he lunged forward and grabbed my arm with terrifying force ella you
11:55wouldn't dare you wouldn't dare fall for him i tried to shake him off but his grip was like an
12:02iron
12:02shackle just as the tension reached its breaking point a streak of crimson light flashed into the
12:08hall from outside a razor sharp blade sliced through the air aimed directly at the arm chiron used to
12:14hold me startled leah got spooked and hid the momentum sent me stumbling backward but a second later
12:21a familiar powerful arm caught me firmly by the waist i heard that voice
12:26kiren i show you respect only because you are my elder brother lay one hand on her again and i
12:34will
12:34sever this arm from your body
12:39leon's sudden appearance completely shifted the energy of the feast
12:42as the eldest son chiron held a supreme position in god realm but leon's power as the god of war
12:48was
12:48not to be underestimated in all the years prior the two had never clashed openly leon was usually
12:55easygoing and indifferent to most things showing no interest in the throne which led chiron to keep
13:00a respectful distance in my past life chiron even warned me to avoid leon to prevent unnecessary rumors
13:07blinded by my love for him i never disobeyed i died without ever seeing them tear off their masks of
13:13civility but in this life the unexpected was happening chiron stared at leon who held me
13:19protectively in his arms his expression twisted with suppressed rage after a long moment he regained
13:26a forced calm you're back leon i was merely having a chat with ella why such anger has years of
13:34war made
13:34your temper even more explosive he was the one being insulting yet he had the nerve to claim leon was
13:40the
13:40one losing control in that moment i finally understood how the rumors of leon's explosive
13:45temper had started chiron's plan was simple who would want a volatile unstable god on the throne
13:53to the world the gentle god of water was the obvious choice for king i glanced at leon but he
13:59looked completely unbothered clearly used to chiron slander a surge of rage boiled inside me if not
14:06for my past life even i wouldn't have known that chiron was a total hypocrite in my last life he
14:12spent
14:12decades forcing me to take forbidden drugs he watched me cough up blood and scream and agony from the
14:18backfiring spells only to sneer at me with contempt how is it your sister produced a griffin so easily
14:27yet you can't even carry a single cub drink it drink every last drop if you can't give me a
14:36kid
14:37you might as well be dead yet that same cruel monster would act like a devoted doting husband
14:43the moment anyone else was watching living with that extreme duality was a constant nightmare
14:49he tortured me then and now he was trying to ruin leon the hatred from two lifetimes boiled over i
14:56gripped
14:56leon's hand tightly and raised my voice in defiance chiron your words are utterly absurd you just laid
15:04hands on me without cause is this how a god behaves if leon hadn't returned in time you would have
15:10surely broken my arm a woman's reputation is everything had leon not seen this with his own eyes rumors
15:17would have run wild and i would have had no way to clear my name you were the one who
15:22acted
15:23disrespectfully before the gods yet you dare blame leon for his anger while leon and his warriors bled
15:29in the abbess to protect olympus you sat comfortably in this hall instead of worrying for his safety you
15:35insulted his wife where is the justice in that do you not fear disheartening every warrior currently
15:41fighting on the front lines as my words echoed through the hall everyone stood frozen in absolute
15:46shock since arriving on god realm i had been silent and invisible i never saw conflict which was why
15:53they felt so comfortable neglecting me even leon was stunned by my fierce rebuttal his eyes widened with
16:00a look of pure joyful surprise chiron on the other hand looked as though his face had been carved from
16:06permafrost yet he couldn't find a single word to counter me the banquet ended in a disastrous chill
16:14soon rumors began to swirl that the god of water had acted improperly toward the god of fire's wife
16:19while he was away at battle because i had framed it as an insult to every soldier on the front
16:24lines
16:25the scandal exploded when the high king caught wind of it he summoned chiron and gave him a scathing
16:31reprimand he even ordered chiron into isolation to reflect on his actions a massive blow to his pride
16:39in a way i had finally avenged the version of myself from my past life leon returned victorious
16:46but he was still buried in military affairs i too hadn't quite figured out how to act around him
16:52that day leon went to the high king's palace for a meeting but an uninvited guest arrived at my palace
17:00i looked at leah's venomous expression and felt a wave of weariness since we both married into the god
17:06realm if we can't support each other fine but why make things so difficult when did you seduce chiron
17:13you made him humiliate himself for you at the feast
17:18your mother was just a lowly servant who seduced our father and you're just like her how dare you ruin
17:25my perfect marriage her insults toward my late mother turned my blood cold sister if it were truly a
17:33perfect marriage how could i ruin it so easily besides in all these years i've barely seen the
17:40god of water and you were always there when exactly did you see me seduce him
17:47let me be clear my heart belongs only to my husband
17:52i adore him and i couldn't care less about your precious water god just as the words left my mouth
17:59a soft chuckle came from the doorway i turned to find leon standing there his eyes sparkling with
18:06mischief and delight my face instantly turned bright red what on earth did i just say leah left with a
18:13face pale from fury meanwhile leon having heard my passionate confession slowly approached blushing and
18:23speechless i backed away until he pinned me against the couch a playful smirk on his lips
18:30my lady what was it you just said
18:38nothing i said nothing i could have sworn i heard you say you adore me i
18:45before i could protest leon silenced me with a kiss when the union finally began he revealed the
18:52predatory nature of a primordial god he was relentless leaving me breathless and half spent
18:57only after such intimacy did i realize that the volatile god of fire could be so incredibly tender
19:02to his wife since then leon and i truly began our life together as a married couple gradually
19:10i discovered that the previously dormant core within my body was beginning to clear
19:19my chronically cold hands and feet grew warm as if an ethereal flame were burning within me
19:26yet it didn't feel scorching instead i felt my soul and body strengthening day by day i finally
19:34understood why i could never conceive in my past life my inner core is fire attributed while chiron is the
19:42god
19:43of water his core was icy and damp a fatal mismatch for mine in my previous life simply neutralizing the
19:52water energy he forced upon me exhausted all my core strength with a volatile and weakened foundation
20:00how could i have ever nurtured a kid the baby i finally conceived after being forced to ingest countless
20:08forbidden drugs was heartlessly crushed to death by him now that i am married to the god of fire our
20:17cores are in perfect harmony during our occasional dual cultivation i feel my body becoming warm and
20:25incredibly light it made me wonder what could my true form be just as i was lost in thought a
20:34piece of
20:34news swept through the god realm princess leah the wife of the water god was pregnant the princesses of
20:43the mortal realm leah and i all wed on the same day while leon was at war the two mortal
20:49princesses both
20:50conceived and gave birth to kid meanwhile the rumors grew cruel elf princesses were less fertile than humans
21:00since leon had been away i wasn't concerned but i knew leah had secretly sought spirit medicines many
21:07times i understood chiron's agonizing forbidden arts better than anyone leah's life these past few years
21:14must have been a misery that withered her beauty now finally pregnant she could hold her head high
21:21her news even restored the high king standing with zeus placing him back at the center of power
21:28i saw her again at a god realm banquet her face was caked in thick powder yet it failed to
21:34mask her
21:34deathly pallor still the moment she saw me she struck a triumphant pose and sneered ella you and leon have
21:42been married for years now why hasn't there been any news of a child you can't even give birth of
21:47a kid
21:47you're a disgrace to our demigod clan if people start thinking our kind is infertile how will you
21:54take responsibility for ruining our reputation i looked at her sickly pale face and sighed there are
22:01many fire bloodlines in the elf clan and you are no exception now that you're pregnant you know best
22:07how much you're suffering instead of bickly with me you should spend that energy figuring out how to
22:13survive what's coming as i spoke chiron stepped forward and wrapped an arm around leah's waist
22:19our child is our business don't bother yourself with it ella perhaps i shouldn't say this but a
22:27useless woman who can't conceive really ought to stay hidden at home don't bring your bad luck into public
22:32spaces he turned a mocking grin toward leon who was standing right behind me my poor brother
22:41i'm afraid you won't see a child for a hundred years best of luck with that the surrounding
22:46immortals cast pitying and scornful glances at us i looked at leon feeling a sharp pang of guilt
22:53i knew how much a child meant to a god having a brilliant and powerful divine beast as an heir
22:58is a crucial factor in becoming the successor to the high king
23:03in my last life even though leon and my sister were at odds she still bore him a griffin which
23:10ultimately helped him ascend to the throne but in this life though we have been married for years
23:15and are deeply in love my womb remained silent my heart sank at the thought and my eyes began to
23:22sting with unshed tears leon however didn't spare a glance for the mocking crowd he reached out gently
23:29pinching my cheek why are you crying what does a child matter are the two us not happy together
23:39no butts leon gripped my hand turning his back on the staring gods as he led me out i have
23:45you
23:45and that is enough i know what you're worried about ella but you have to trust me your husband
23:51is the god of war the throne was never meant to be won through a child my tears finally spilled
23:57over
23:57as leon pulled me into a tight embrace on an ordinary morning i was suddenly overcome by nausea and
24:04chest tightness leon was terrified doctor and summoned the celestial physician only to discover
24:11i was already three months pregnant he spun me around in his arms radiating pure joy even the high
24:18king and queen were overjoyed granting her countless magical herbs leah now heavily pregnant and nearing her
24:26term looked at me with bitter resentment i wonder what desperate methods a lowly body like yours had
24:32to use to conceive i tilted my head with a smile i suppose because your own journey was so difficult
24:39you assume everyone else must resort to extreme measures she shot me a glare and stormed off i watched
24:48her go my smile fading into a heavy sigh a dark lingering premonition began to crawl into my heart
24:55sure enough on the day leah gave birth wild winds roared through the god realm accompanied by thunder and
25:02lightning the high king and queen led the other gods waiting outside the room but after a day and a
25:09night of
25:09leah's agonizing screams she gave birth to a harpy hatchling a slick twisted creature with mangled wings
25:18a bird's torso and a fish's tail it was hideous a grotesque deformity of nature
25:27what is this thing why isn't it a griffin where is my kid useless you are all useless
25:42how could you kill him he was your own flesh and blood you butcher i'll kill you i'll avenge my
25:51child
25:52this is not my child i could never father such a freak
