Short filmTranscript
00:00I had an accident while I was still in the egg.
00:02My mother caught my father glancing at a maid.
00:05And in a rage, she used me as a weapon,
00:09throwing me at the maid to kill her.
00:11I hatched early, my magic core was damaged,
00:15and I turned into an ugly, bald, sickly phoenix.
00:19Because I was born broken,
00:21I couldn't even take human form until I was ten,
00:24which became my mother's greatest shame.
00:28She regretted everything,
00:30and often beat me black and blue.
00:34What kind of sin did I commit to birth such a stupid, worthless loser?
00:38Do you know how embarrassed I am?
00:41Why won't you just die?
00:43If you don't drop dead soon, you're going to be the death of me!
00:48She finally pulled out her sword to kill me.
00:51My father stopped her.
00:53Serafina, she's not worth the trouble.
00:57But killing your own flesh and blood will make the whole magical world despise you,
01:01and you'll be punished.
01:02My mother finally calmed down, dropped the sword.
01:05I really don't know what to do.
01:07You have to think of something.
01:08Just looking at her makes me sick.
01:10Then let's send her far away.
01:12Out of sight, out of mind.
01:14It just so happened that Marnie,
01:17the owl who had served the family for a hundred years,
01:20was retiring to her hometown.
01:22My mother gave her three bags of crystals and dumped me on her.
01:25I don't care if she lives or dies.
01:27Just keep her away from me.
01:30Marnie looked at me, covered in scars,
01:33and decided to take me with her.
01:35Marnie, is mother angry with me?
01:39Come learn some skills with Marnie.
01:42Once you're strong and capable,
01:45your mother won't be mad anymore.
01:47At that time, we both thought that if I just got smarter and stronger,
01:51my mother would finally love me.
01:54I followed Marnie back to her home,
01:57the Blackwood Forest.
01:59Later, my parents had another phoenix.
02:02A healthy one.
02:03Perfect in every way.
02:05I often heard the magical creatures of Blackwood
02:08talking about my parents and my sister.
02:10They said my sister, Elena,
02:12was the greatest beauty of the phoenix clan,
02:15gifted,
02:15and took human form the moment she was born.
02:18Unlike me,
02:19I don't have a drop of magic,
02:21just stupid and slow.
02:23They also said my parents built a golden castle
02:26for my sister as a first birthday gift.
02:28They even spent millions of crystals
02:30to send her to St. Augustine Academy.
02:32She was destined to become
02:33a more powerful phoenix mage than my mother.
02:36Unlike me,
02:37a useless chicken.
02:39Maybe my parents made a mistake.
02:41Maybe I'm not even phoenix blood.
02:44Later,
02:45they laughed at me and threw stones at me.
02:47They hit me until I was covered in blood.
02:50Marnie had to rush out to chase them away.
02:52Sylvia,
02:53you are phoenix blood.
02:54You will become a powerful phoenix mage.
02:57Don't give up because of what others say.
02:59If you give up,
03:00that's when life truly ends.
03:02But among the people who hit me
03:03was the son of the Blackwood Lord.
03:05After offending the Lord,
03:07Marnie could no longer stay in her homeland,
03:09so she could only wander around everywhere with me.
03:13In order to help me transform earlier,
03:16Marnie took out all her savings
03:18and sent me to Pine Castle Academy to study.
03:21But my talent was truly too poor.
03:25Even a normal magic academy like Pine Castle
03:27would not accept me.
03:29Marnie went to the headmaster
03:31and traded her precious feather.
03:34That's how I became a part-time student
03:36at Pine Hold Academy.
03:37But my magic core
03:38was severely damaged.
03:41And my spiritual power
03:43had never awakened,
03:45making learning extremely difficult.
03:47Even my mentor often shook his head
03:49and sighed at me.
03:51He told Marnie to give up early
03:52and not waste her effort.
03:55But Marnie refused to believe it.
03:57To prevent me from being expelled
03:59from the academy every night,
04:01she personally taught me meditation,
04:04guided my magic,
04:06and transferred her own power to me.
04:08She traveled into dangerous magic realms
04:10to find rare potions
04:12that could repair my core.
04:14Many times,
04:14she was seriously injured
04:16by beasts guarding the medicine,
04:17barely surviving.
04:19I was afraid of losing Marnie,
04:21so I begged her not to go anymore.
04:23I would rather be a useless fool forever.
04:25Don't say dust useless things.
04:27The more I look down on you,
04:29the more you must wait up.
04:30You need to prove them wrong.
04:32Sylvia,
04:33I can't stay with you forever.
04:35You must learn to survive
04:36in this magical world on your own.
04:39Why can't Marnie stay with me forever?
04:41She didn't answer,
04:42only sighed and fed me the potion.
04:44I didn't want Marnie to risk herself for me anymore,
04:47so I studied magic even harder,
04:49after I don't know how many years.
04:51I finally transformed.
04:53Even though I was still plain and ugly,
04:56I finally awakened my magic talent
04:58and became a formal junior student
05:01of Pine Castle Magic Academy.
05:03Our little phoenix is getting more and more beautiful.
05:06Marnie always said proudly,
05:08she worked even harder to find magic potions
05:10and rare materials for me,
05:12trying to repair my damaged magic potions.
05:14She still always came back injured.
05:17She didn't think to me.
05:20The magical world is vast,
05:22and miracles happen all the time.
05:25If one day I become strong,
05:28will my parents love me like they love my sister?
05:30They will.
05:32Our Sylvia is so well-behaved,
05:34who wouldn't love you?
05:36That night,
05:37Marnie borrowed a vision mirror from the headmaster.
05:39Through the door crack,
05:40I saw her talking to someone through the mirror.
05:43In the mirror,
05:43appeared a noble and elegant woman.
05:46She was combing the hair of a girl
05:48who looked somewhat like me.
05:50Her face showed a tenderness
05:51I didn't recognize from my memory.
05:53When Marnie asked to take me back
05:55to the phoenix homeland,
05:56her expression immediately changed.
05:59I've said it many times.
06:01I will not see her.
06:02Don't bother me with her anymore.
06:04I already consider I have no such daughter.
06:06She waved her hand
06:07and disappeared from the mirror.
06:09Only Marnie's teared eyes
06:11were reflected in the glass.
06:13After that,
06:14I never mentioned my parents again,
06:16I thought.
06:17Having Marnie's love was enough.
06:21Since I successfully took human form,
06:24it felt like I suddenly understood everything.
06:27From a low-level mage
06:28to a top-tier mage,
06:30it only took me 100 years.
06:32I became the strongest student
06:34in the history of Pine Castle Magic Academy,
06:37just in time for the Academy Tournament.
06:40My mentor took me
06:42and the junior students with him.
06:43This was my first time
06:45leaving Pine Castle Island,
06:46and in hundreds of years,
06:48it was also the first time
06:49I saw my parents
06:50and my sister.
06:52When I saw my sister Elena,
06:54she was surrounded by people,
06:56smiling and chatting.
06:57My junior Mina looked at her,
06:59then at me,
06:59and asked,
07:00Sylvia?
07:02That St. Augustine female student,
07:05she looks a lot like you.
07:06Is she your relative?
07:08Before I could answer.
07:09You're really flattering yourself.
07:13How can a turkey be compared to a phoenix?
07:15How are they alike at all?
07:16Elena also turned her gaze toward me.
07:19She looked slightly surprised and confused.
07:22There was even a hint of grievance
07:24as she looked around for something.
07:26Suddenly,
07:27I felt a sharp, cold gaze behind me,
07:30and I turned around.
07:31I saw a face both unfamiliar
07:34and familiar.
07:35Elena's eyes lit up.
07:37She pushed through the crowd
07:38and threw herself into her arms.
07:41Mother!
07:41I thought you weren't coming.
07:43How could I?
07:45I would never miss
07:46any important moment of yours.
07:48My mother gently stroked her face
07:50with affection.
07:50I want to personally witness
07:52my little princess
07:53grow into the most outstanding mage
07:56in the magic world.
08:00Mother, do you know her?
08:02She looks just like me.
08:05Silly girl.
08:07How can you compare yourself
08:08to a lowly person?
08:10You are the noblest princess
08:11of the phoenix clan.
08:13There is only one princess
08:14of the phoenix clan.
08:16And that is my daughter,
08:19Elena.
08:20She held my sister's hand
08:21and walked toward the high platform
08:23without even looking at me again.
08:25I was left standing there,
08:26swallowed by the laughter around me.
08:29So shameless!
08:31A turkey actually dares
08:32to pretend to be a phoenix!
08:35Exposed personally by the queen!
08:37How embarrassing can that be?
08:38My juniors and seniors
08:40were also mocked together with me.
08:42I felt guilty and said softly,
08:44Don't argue with them.
08:46I'm not a phoenix princess anyway.
08:48What right does someone
08:49who isn't even acknowledged
08:50by her own mother
08:51have to call herself a princess?
08:53But I didn't expect my juniors
08:55to be so brave
08:56and argued fiercely with them.
08:58We've seen Sylvia's true form
09:01with our own eyes!
09:02She's a nine-tailed golden flame phoenix!
09:05But the others simply didn't believe it.
09:07Prince Elena is the only
09:08rightful phoenix heir.
09:10Your senior?
09:11Never even heard of her!
09:12The argument escalated
09:14from shouting into physical conflict.
09:16One disagreement
09:17and they started fighting.
09:19At that moment,
09:20the grand mentor, Cyrus,
09:22who had been watching
09:22finally stepped in
09:24and separated us.
09:25After seeing our academy badges,
09:27he said,
09:28Throw out
09:28all these troublemakers.
09:31And what about them?
09:32I pointed at the others
09:33who had also fought.
09:34The grand mentor frowned.
09:37His gaze turned sharp
09:38and an overwhelming pressure
09:40fell on me.
09:41Cold sweat instantly formed
09:43on my forehead,
09:43but I forced myself
09:45to stand straight
09:46and faced him.
09:47Your judgment is unfair.
09:48I don't accept it.
09:50He frowned slightly.
09:52In the end,
09:53Then all of you
09:55disqualified.
09:57Elena arrived
09:58and looked at Cyrus pleadingly,
10:00all pitiful and fragile.
10:02Mr. Cyrus,
10:04this all started because of me.
10:06Please show mercy
10:07and don't punish my classmates.
10:10This tournament only happens
10:12once every hundred years.
10:13If they miss it,
10:15they'll have to wait
10:15another hundred years.
10:17That punishment is too severe.
10:19She bowed deeply,
10:21her attitude sincere and humble.
10:23But from beginning to end,
10:25she never mentioned anyone
10:27from our Pine Castle Academy.
10:29Mentor Cyrus was clearly softened,
10:32and after hearing everyone say
10:33we were the ones who started it,
10:35he made a quick decision
10:36and ordered us to be thrown out.
10:39I refused to back down
10:41and shouted loudly,
10:43Wait!
10:44Mentor Cyrus!
10:45Please check the full record crystal
10:47and confirm who struck first.
10:50If the truth is unclear
10:51and we are punished anyway,
10:53then even if I have to go to court,
10:55I will seek justice.
10:57At that moment of stalemate,
10:59the Phoenix Queen stepped forward.
11:01She glanced at me
11:02with pure disgust.
11:05You impersonated my Phoenix Princess
11:07and caused public outrage.
11:10I already showed mercy
11:11by not punishing you.
11:13If you keep making trouble,
11:15I will not show you any mercy!
11:18And a blazing flame
11:19instantly ignited in front of me.
11:21It burned the edges
11:22of my new robe black.
11:24Just half an inch closer,
11:26the flame would have killed me.
11:28Sylvia!
11:29Let's go!
11:29My junior was scared
11:31and pulled me back.
11:32I gently pulled her hand away
11:33and stepped forward,
11:35staring straight at the Phoenix Queen
11:37without fear.
11:38Are you trying to use your power
11:39to bully me, Queen of Phoenix?
11:43When did I ever impersonate
11:45a Phoenix Princess?
11:46If she dared to say
11:48I was impersonating,
11:49I would expose her lies
11:51in front of everyone,
11:52let the world see
11:53how she harmed her own child
11:55and abandoned me.
11:57She avoided my gaze,
11:59feeling guilty.
11:59A no-name academy
12:01like Pinus
12:02still wants to make a scene
12:03and gain attention?
12:06This academy competition
12:08is not a place
12:08for low-level mages
12:10to act wild.
12:11Even though fights
12:12are supposed to be controlled,
12:14there have been cases
12:15where people died
12:16on the arena.
12:20If you overestimate yourself,
12:23you will pay a heavy price.
12:25I looked straight
12:27at the Phoenix Queen.
12:28How about a bet,
12:30Queen of Phoenix?
12:31If I defeat
12:32your precious daughter,
12:33you publicly apologize to me.
12:36I admit it,
12:38I couldn't swallow
12:39this humiliation.
12:40She damaged
12:41my magic core,
12:42despised me,
12:44tortured me,
12:45and finally abandoned me.
12:47Now she insults me
12:48and humiliates me
12:49in public again.
12:50If she thinks
12:51I'm a useless fool,
12:52then I will make her
12:53see it clearly for herself.
12:55How this useless daughter
12:57defeats the princess
12:58she raised like a treasure.
13:00You're overestimating yourself.
13:02You won't even survive
13:03the first round,
13:04let alone beat Elena.
13:06Are you afraid
13:07to make the bet,
13:07Queen of Phoenix?
13:08Afraid your princess
13:10will lose to a nobody like me,
13:11a so-called turkey?
13:13Why would I be afraid of you?
13:15The Phoenix Queen sneered.
13:17Since you're looking for death,
13:18I won't stop you.
13:21But what if you lose?
13:23Then I will destroy
13:25my own magic core
13:26and cut all ties
13:27with you forever.
13:28Her pupils shrank violently.
13:30Confused gazes
13:31from the crowd
13:31fell on both of us
13:32as if they were beginning
13:33to understand something.
13:38Fine.
13:39I accept.
13:40Elena,
13:41if you meet her in the arena,
13:43show no mercy.
13:47In the end,
13:48we were still allowed to stay.
13:50But as the St. Augustine students left,
13:53In the first round of Chaos Battle,
13:55no one is allowed to touch anyone
13:56from Pinecast Academy.
13:57They are our prey
13:58from St. Odyssey.
14:01The juniors were full of regret.
14:04Sylvia,
14:04we shouldn't have spoken up
14:05and caused trouble.
14:07What do we do now?
14:08They will definitely try to kill us.
14:10In the Magic Academy Tournament,
14:12although killing
14:13is officially forbidden.
14:14During chaotic battles,
14:16magical power
14:17can easily spiral
14:18out of control.
14:19And deaths often happen.
14:21No one sympathizes
14:22with the losers.
14:24The path of magic
14:25is survival of the fittest.
14:27And anyone can fall
14:29at any time.
14:30This is the awareness
14:31every mage must have.
14:33Maybe we should just admit defeat
14:35and withdraw.
14:37No more coward talk like that!
14:39No more coward talk like that!
14:41We will never run away!
14:45We cannot let Pinecrest Magic Academy
14:47become a joke
14:47in the entire Magic world!
14:51Don't be afraid.
14:52Stay behind me.
14:53As long as I'm alive,
14:54no one will hurt you.
14:56Sylvia,
14:56it's all my fault.
14:58I should have held back
14:59and not argued with them.
15:00I knew they were all
15:01standing up for me.
15:02When the match began,
15:03as expected,
15:04the other academies
15:05deliberately hoarded us.
15:07The St. Augustine students
15:08surrounded us.
15:09One of them said to Elena,
15:11Elena,
15:11just watch from the side.
15:13I'll take care of this
15:14group of trash for you.
15:16Elena stood there
15:16like a lucky mascot,
15:18protected by everyone.
15:20She also had no intention
15:21of acting in the first round.
15:23I set up a strong,
15:24magical barrier
15:25to protect my juniors inside.
15:27Seeing me shielding them,
15:29All of you together
15:30don't stand a chance
15:31and you think you can fight alone?
15:32You're clearly ready to die!
15:35If that's the case,
15:36I'll grant your wish.
15:38Everyone step back.
15:39I loan him enough
15:40to deal with her.
15:43He froze for a moment,
15:44slightly dazed,
15:45but still raised his wand
15:47and attacked me.
15:48In the blink of an eye,
15:50I passed by him.
15:51The battle ended,
15:52so fast that no one
15:53even had time to react.
15:55The spectators
15:56were still confused.
15:57My opponent slowly
15:58fell to the ground,
16:00turned his head
16:01unwillingly to look at me,
16:02and then passed out.
16:05Only then
16:05did everyone finally react
16:07with rage.
16:09That witch must have
16:10used dirty tricks!
16:11Everyone be careful!
16:12Attack her together!
16:14I let out a slight sigh.
16:16Looks like this is going
16:17to take some effort.
16:18I removed the heavy gravity
16:20magic shackles I had worn
16:21on my hands and feet
16:22for years.
16:23My speed instantly
16:25reached the extreme.
16:26I don't have any lost,
16:28ancient, powerful magic,
16:29nor any noble inheritance.
16:31After 200 years
16:33of clumsy training,
16:34I only remembered
16:35one trick.
16:37In the world of magic,
16:38speed is everything.
16:40Facing more than 20 enemies,
16:42I turned into a shadow
16:43and moved through them.
16:45I knew they wouldn't
16:46give me many chances.
16:47Every attack
16:48had to be a clean hit.
16:50In a short moment,
16:51only 10 of them
16:52were still standing.
16:54This time,
16:54no one dared
16:55to underestimate me anymore.
16:57Countless eyes
16:57were focused on me.
16:59Some were impressed.
17:00Some were mocking.
17:02I felt an even colder
17:03killing intent
17:04from my opponents.
17:06Kill us!
17:07And they began
17:08forming a magic array.
17:10I refused to sit
17:11and wait for death
17:12and rushed straight
17:13into the center
17:14of the formation
17:15at lightning speed,
17:16disrupting it.
17:17But they reacted quickly
17:19and immediately changed
17:21the formation,
17:22trapping me inside.
17:23I felt a storm
17:24of wind blades
17:25rushing toward me
17:26like a spiral.
17:27I had no choice
17:28but to reveal
17:29my true form
17:30using Phoenix's
17:31sacred fire
17:32to form armor.
17:34I unleashed
17:35a violent
17:35flamethrone
17:36to counterattack.
17:37After a Phoenix cry,
17:39all the St. Augustine
17:40Academy students
17:41fell to the ground.
17:43The arena fell
17:44into terrifying silence.
17:46She really is a Phoenix!
17:48A nine-tailed
17:49golden flame Phoenix!
17:51Does the Phoenix
17:51royal family
17:52have two princesses?
17:53Why have we never
17:53heard of this?
17:54I returned to human form
17:56and stood in front
17:57of Elena.
17:58For some reason,
17:59Elena suddenly
18:00cried out loudly.
18:01I am the only princess
18:03of the Phoenix clan!
18:04She is fake!
18:05Then she revealed
18:06seven Phoenix feather wands,
18:08the highest sacred artifact
18:10of the Phoenix clan.
18:11The seven feathers
18:12activated at once,
18:14sending a destructive force
18:16straight toward me.
18:17Sylvia!
18:18I heard my junior
18:19screaming behind me.
18:20I didn't turn back.
18:22My eyes instinctively
18:24looked toward my mother
18:25sitting on the high platform.
18:26If I died,
18:27she would probably
18:28feel relieved.
18:30Just when everyone
18:31thought I was surely
18:32going to die,
18:33the seven Phoenix feathers
18:35stopped right in front of me,
18:37only a hair's breadth
18:38away from piercing my body.
18:40Elena!
18:40Don't let her go!
18:41She injured so many of us!
18:43If we don't kill her,
18:44what about St. Augustine's honor?
18:45Oh.
18:46They thought Elena
18:47didn't want to kill me.
18:49I quickly chanted
18:50a spell silently.
18:51The seven sacred artifacts
18:52suddenly reversed direction
18:54and flew toward Elena,
18:56surrounding her.
18:58In an instant,
19:00even the air seemed to freeze.
19:04Sylvia is amazing!
19:06Oh my God!
19:07Elena looked at me
19:08in disbelief.
19:09She desperately waved her wand,
19:11trying to regain control,
19:13but it was useless.
19:30She threw herself back
19:32as if I had hit her,
19:33but my weapons
19:34were still inches away from her.
19:42Sylvia!
19:44Stop!
19:48My mother fired
19:49a massive wave of fire at me.
19:51I was sent flying
19:52and hit the ground,
19:54tasting blood.
19:57I could have dodged it,
19:59but I suddenly felt,
20:01this is fine.
20:02From now on,
20:03we're even.
20:06A wave of anger
20:07exploded around me.
20:09This is too much!
20:10This breaks the rules!
20:11This is unfair!
20:12Where is the judge?
20:13A senior stepped in!
20:14How can this still be a ma-
20:14The Phoenix Queen roared.
20:16What does it have to do with you?
20:17This bad girl
20:18tried to kill her own sister.
20:20As her mother,
20:21I'm just teaching her a lesson.
20:23That's only right!
20:28Oh!
20:29At this moment,
20:31she admitted
20:32I was her daughter again.
20:34Didn't stop her
20:36from hating me.
20:37If I had known earlier,
20:38I would have killed you.
20:40Where did you steal
20:42the Phoenix Clan's
20:43Sacred Wand spell from?
20:48Bring me the Holy Spring Water!
20:50Quickly!
20:51She immediately ordered
20:52Sacred Spring Water
20:53to be brought,
20:54cleansing the wand
20:55again and again.
20:56The Sacred Artifact
20:57has been touched by her!
20:59It's filthy!
20:59If Elena uses it again,
21:01she'll be contaminated
21:02by impurity!
21:04She finished speaking,
21:05holding her precious daughter,
21:06and flew away.
21:08All eyes in the arena
21:09fell on me,
21:10some full of sympathy
21:11and pity,
21:12others with disdain
21:13and mockery.
21:14The Phoenix Queen
21:16is so mean!
21:17Why would Sylvia
21:19is also this
21:20to her daughter?
21:22The junior schoolmate
21:24cried so hard,
21:25tears and snot
21:27all over her face.
21:28I just slowly got up,
21:30swallowed the blood
21:31in my mouth,
21:32and asked the judge
21:33standing at the side,
21:35Did I win?
21:36He froze for a second,
21:38then nodded hard.
21:40I smiled and thanked him,
21:41then released
21:42the magic barrier.
21:46The junior schoolmate
21:48ran over,
21:49hugged me,
21:49and cried loudly.
21:51Sylvia,
21:52if the Phoenix Queen
21:53doesn't want you,
21:54I do!
21:54I'll go home
21:55and tell my mom
21:55to adopt you!
21:56From now on,
21:57you're my big siszy!
21:58The others burst
21:59in her laughter.
22:02I couldn't help
22:03but laugh too,
22:04even though my eyes
22:05felt sore.
22:06This world is never
22:07short of people
22:08who love me.
22:08I won the Grand Championship
22:10with overwhelming strength.
22:12Alaric,
22:13the High Elder
22:14of St. Augustine Academy,
22:15personally presented
22:17my prize.
22:21Child,
22:22consider transferring
22:23to St. Alex Gamble.
22:24With your talent,
22:25you'll surely become
22:26a legendary mage
22:27before long.
22:29Thank you for the offer,
22:31but I already have a mentor.
22:37You stay true to your roots
22:39and value loyalty.
22:39If you ever need help,
22:40come find me at St. Augustine.
22:41My juniors were overjoyed.
22:43They didn't want me to leave.
22:44I had long considered
22:45Pine Hill Academy home,
22:46mine and Marnie.
22:47The thought of Marnie
22:48made me desperate to return.
22:50Part of the championship prize
22:51was a plate of everlasting grass.
22:54I wanted to give it to Marnie,
22:56but when I got home,
22:57Marnie was gone.
23:00There were only a few lines
23:02on the table
23:02telling me to come
23:03to the Phoenix Castle
23:04to find her.
23:05I had a terrible gut feeling
23:07and I rushed
23:08to the Phoenix Castle
23:09and moved to her.
23:16I haven't been back
23:17in centuries.
23:19This place is even more
23:20extravagant than before.
23:22They've added more palaces
23:23and the most beautiful one
23:25is the Golden Palace
23:26where Elena lives.
23:27After waiting for a long time,
23:28I finally saw
23:30the Phoenix Emperor
23:30and Queen.
23:32Where is Marnie?
23:34Where are you hiding her?
23:36Such poor manners.
23:38You don't even greet
23:39your parents
23:40just caring about
23:41an old servant.
23:42Let it be.
23:43She's lived with that owl Marnie
23:45for years.
23:45They're bound to be close.
23:50Sylvia,
23:51your sister has been
23:52in an accident
23:53after losing to you.
23:54She's suffered trauma
23:55and magical instability
23:56and her magic core
23:57is severely damaged.
23:58I hope you can show
23:59some sibling there
24:00and give her half
24:01of your magic core.
24:02Give half my magic core
24:04to her?
24:05Exactly.
24:06Our Phoenix Clan
24:07is different from
24:08other magical races.
24:09Our magic cores
24:10can regenerate
24:11and be reshaped.
24:12Especially your
24:13sacred soul core.
24:14You're the perfect example.
24:15Wasn't your core
24:17shattered at birth?
24:18And look,
24:18it grew back just fine.
24:20You can easily
24:21grow a new one.
24:23If your sister
24:24gets half of your
24:24sacred soul core,
24:26she'll have the most
24:27perfect foundation.
24:29He said it so
24:29matter-of-factly,
24:30as if he were asking me
24:31to share half a piece
24:32of candy.
24:33But that is
24:34my magic core.
24:35It's the core
24:35that Marnie spent
24:36hundreds of years
24:37risking her life
24:39countless times
24:40and suffering
24:40countless wounds
24:41just to help me
24:42heal piece by piece.
24:44Sir, I can't do that.
24:47You ungrateful wretch!
24:50Let him stop!
24:55You ungrateful wretch!
24:57Let him stop!
25:02If you hadn't
25:04defeated her
25:04at the championship
25:05and shattered her spirit,
25:07causing her magic
25:09to spiral out of control,
25:10would her core
25:11be damaged
25:12in the first place?
25:13You owe her this!
25:14If you won't
25:15give it to her,
25:15I'll rip your core
25:16out myself
25:16and give the whole
25:17thing to her!
25:18Don't forget
25:18I gave you life!
25:19Your core was
25:20something I bestowed
25:21upon you
25:21in the first place!
25:22In that moment,
25:24I finally understood.
25:26Any relationship
25:27in this world
25:28depends on a bond.
25:30She and I
25:31were never meant
25:32to have a mother-daughter
25:33connection.
25:34She doesn't love me,
25:36so I don't need
25:37to love her either.
25:39Where is Marna?
25:43She's dead.
25:46She's dead.
25:51Your mother is just
25:52saying that out of anger.
25:54Marnie is currently
25:55at the Golden Palace
25:55taking care of your sister.
25:57She also hopes
25:58you'll be willing
25:59to share half
25:59your magic core with her.
26:01I want to see
26:02Marnin first.
26:03If I don't see her,
26:05we have nothing
26:06to talk about.
26:06You've really
26:07grown some nerve!
26:08Is that any way
26:10to speak to your parents?
26:11I should have killed you
26:13with a single
26:13sword stroke
26:14back then!
26:17Why didn't you?
26:24Elena is still
26:25waiting to be saved.
26:29Now you, Sylvia.
26:30They told me
26:31to wait here,
26:32promising that
26:33Marnie would come
26:34to see me shortly.
26:40But the moment
26:41that imposter appeared,
26:42I knew
26:43she wasn't Marnie.
26:45Marnie would never
26:46look at me
26:47with such a stranger's gaze.
26:49And she certainly
26:50wouldn't start
26:51by trying to persuade me
26:52to hand over
26:53the magic core
26:54I'd sacrificed
26:54my life to build,
26:56just to gift it
26:57to the
26:57princess.
27:01Where is my Marnie?
27:04You foolish girl.
27:06Don't you recognize me?
27:09Hurry up
27:10and cut out
27:11your magic core.
27:13Her Highness
27:13the princess
27:14is waiting.
27:15Where is Marnie?
27:16What have you
27:17done to her?
27:20Silly child,
27:21I'm right here.
27:23She stubbornly
27:25insisted she was Marnie,
27:27but I had lost
27:28all patience.
27:29With a sharp flick
27:30of my wrist,
27:31I unleashed
27:32the true Phoenix fire,
27:34forcing her
27:35to reveal
27:36her true form.
27:38She shrieked
27:39for help.
27:40The Phoenix Emperor
27:42and Queen
27:42rushed in,
27:43physically restraining
27:45my frenzied attack.
27:52What have you
27:53done to her?
27:58If you return
27:59her to me safely,
28:00I will give
28:01half my magic core
28:03to Elena.
28:04I didn't care
28:04about the power.
28:05I didn't care
28:06about the cost.
28:07I just wanted
28:09Marnie back.
28:09I would give
28:11them everything.
28:12Everything I had
28:13if it meant
28:14she could be safe.
28:16The Phoenix Emperor
28:17avoids my eyes
28:18and the Phoenix Empress
28:20gives a signal
28:21to the servants
28:22outside.
28:23She has so many wounds,
28:24still bleeding,
28:26dripping all the way
28:27across the floor.
28:28I call her name,
28:29but she can't even
28:31answer me anymore.
28:33Marnie,
28:35please wake up.
28:36I brought you
28:37the eternal herb.
28:38You're going to be okay.
28:39My hands shaking.
28:41Just open your mouth,
28:42Marnie.
28:46It's useless for her.
28:47Better to save it
28:48for your sister.
28:50Take this and give it
28:51to the princess.
28:52My eyes turn bloodshot
28:53as I look at her.
28:54Back.
28:56I rush forward,
28:58trying to grab it back.
29:01A strong wind
29:03suddenly strikes
29:04from behind,
29:05but I don't feel
29:06anything.
29:07The moment I turn
29:08Marnie has shifted
29:10back into her true form.
29:12Wings spread wide,
29:14shielding me from behind.
29:24There's a massive hole
29:26in her chest.
29:27Quick.
29:28Run.
29:30Go.
29:32Sylvia.
29:35You have to
29:36stay alive.
29:38You're not going
29:39anywhere today.
29:40Since you won't share
29:41half your magic core
29:42with your sister,
29:43then give it all
29:45back to me,
29:46along with your life.
29:47The phoenix empress
29:49tries to stop me.
29:50Marnie grabs
29:51onto her legs.
29:52Even after she's
29:53completely lost
29:54her spark of life,
29:56I run forward,
29:57not caring about
29:58anything else,
29:59though I have no idea
30:01where I can possibly
30:02go without Marnie.
30:03But I have to keep running.
30:05I can't die.
30:06I have to survive.
30:10I think of Elder Alaric
30:12of St. Austin.
30:15This Sylphina.
30:17Maybe he's the only one
30:19who can save me,
30:20but there's no way
30:21I can handle the empress
30:22and the emperor right now.
30:24St. Austin is too far.
30:26I'll never make it there.
30:29Not to mention
30:30the tens of thousands
30:31of guards in the phoenix castle,
30:33but the abyss
30:34of the fallen gods.
30:36It's just right
30:37around the corner.
30:44Two days later,
30:45you justę»äŗäøåŗå¤©č”£ę ē¼ēč½¦ē„ø,
30:49fromę¤äøäøåę ę
ē“§ę£. I
30:50was still wondering if
30:51you've always been so loving,
30:53you really want to
30:54leave him? No,
30:57no.
