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