Short filmTranscript
00:03Apollo is mine, you little brat.
00:06What gives you the right to marry him?
00:09Just because you're pretty?
00:10Go to hell!
00:12The day before my wedding to Apollo, my own sister killed me.
00:15When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day we chose our gifts.
00:20You can choose either combat talent or beauty.
00:23Phaedra didn't even let him finish.
00:25He grabbed the glowing light of the universe.
00:27That's when I knew she had come back too.
00:30In my last night, my sister Phaedra didn't hesitate.
00:33She chose combat because the gods of Olympus value strength of the world.
00:37Kalista, you're too dumb.
00:39Beauty suits you better.
00:40I'll take all the pain of training for you.
00:43I believed her.
00:44I really thought she was doing it for my good.
00:46But Apollo, the man she loved, chose me as his wife because of my beauty.
00:51Blinded by jealousy, Phaedra destroyed my face and pushed me off a cliff.
00:56Kalista, Olympus values strength the most.
00:58I gave you the best option.
01:01You should be grateful.
01:03I looked at her.
01:05This time, I saw everything clearly.
01:07Her jealousy and her greed.
01:09Kalista, then you can only choose the combat gift.
01:12Do you accept?
01:13I accept.
01:14After all, the gods of Olympus value strength above everything.
01:17What could be better than a combat gift?
01:19Kalista, you poor brat.
01:21This time, Apollo's wife will be me.
01:24And you'll die on the battlefield.
01:26The next day, we both awakened our gifts.
01:29Phaedra looked in the mirror, completely stunned by her own beauty.
01:32As for me, my face was plain.
01:34My body thin and weak.
01:36She glanced at me and burst out laughing.
01:39Oh my god, you're so ugly.
01:42When Lord Apollo sees you this time, he'll be disgusted.
01:45Phaedra, being a clingy vine that lives off a man isn't as nice as it sounds.
01:50With my combat gift, I got into the Olympus Academy.
01:53I became Apollo's classmate.
01:55He was still the same.
01:56Cold, distant, untouchable.
01:58Girls gathered around him like moths to a flame, including Phaedra.
02:02She got exactly what she wanted.
02:04She clung to him, stayed by his side, followed him everywhere.
02:09Men gathered around Phaedra because of her beauty.
02:11Then she started telling everyone.
02:14Kaleta and I are twin sisters.
02:17But she got jealous of my beauty.
02:19She pushed me off a cliff and left me to be attacked by beasts.
02:24I was badly hurt and lost my ability to combat.
02:29Her lies spread through the academy like wildfire.
02:33Within days, everyone believed her.
02:35And I became the target.
02:37First, small things.
02:38My Olympian robes would go missing.
02:41My books would be soaked in water.
02:42My food would accidentally be knocked onto the ground.
02:46Then it got worse.
02:47I started finding cockroaches and disgusting bugs.
02:50They poured out from the folds of my bed, skittering over the sheets.
02:53By the next morning, the smell had already soaked into everything.
02:56One day in the hallway, someone bumped into me in a purse.
03:01Kalista doesn't shower.
03:03That's why she stinks so bad.
03:05So gross!
03:06Being ugly is one thing, but why is she so filthy?
03:10Disgusting!
03:11My sister only looks like this because she's working so hard on her magic.
03:15If she did something wrong, it's my fault as her beautiful big sister.
03:22Please!
03:23Don't bully her!
03:25Phaedra is so kind.
03:26Her beauty really comes from her heart.
03:29Unlike Kalita.
03:30Seriously, if I had a sister that beautiful, I'd be happy for her.
03:34Why would anyone be jealous?
03:36I headed back to my room.
03:38Didn't argue.
03:39Didn't explain.
03:40Not because I couldn't, but because it wasn't worth it.
03:43Meanwhile, Phaedra was living a best life.
03:45She stayed by Apollo's side at all times.
03:47As if she already belonged to him.
03:49They had already confessed their feelings to each other.
03:52I knew that.
03:53Because I had lived it before, but just like last time, Apollo refused to make it public.
03:58In front of everyone, he only called her a friend.
04:00The same lie.
04:01The same excuse.
04:03Back then, I believed him.
04:04I thought he was protecting me.
04:06Keeping me safe from jealousy, from gossip, from harm.
04:18The other people Phaedra hung out with were all from powerful, wealthy families.
04:22They handed her rare artifacts like they meant nothing, and she took all of it.
04:27But her power never improved, because she wasted everything on her face.
04:31On perfumes, on dresses, on anything that made her more beautiful.
04:36She truly believed beauty was enough.
04:38That as long as she stayed beautiful, the world would hand itself over to her.
04:41Then, the combat exam was announced.
04:44If you can't pass the test, and you're expelled from the Olympus Academy.
04:47That was when she came to me, as if nothing had ever happened.
04:52Calista, you have to help me pass this exam.
04:54How?
04:55Don't you have control magic?
04:56You can just manipulate my movements from the sidelines.
04:59That way, I'll pass.
05:01That's forbidden magic.
05:02If we're caught, we'll both be banished from Olympus.
05:04Then don't get caught.
05:06If you can't even do something that simple, what's the point of your combat talent?
05:10You have so many admirers.
05:12Why not ask them?
05:13Though they admire you, they won't take risk on you, right?
05:15Asking an outsider for help with something like this, it's embarrassing.
05:20But you're different.
05:21You're my own sister.
05:24I'm sorry, sister.
05:25I won't do it.
05:26Are you really refusing to help me?
05:29You can pass on your own.
05:30In my last life, I stayed by her side day and night.
05:33I burned through everything I had to save her, and she killed me for it.
05:37This time, she still can't get it enough.
05:40Calista, then don't blame me for not giving you a chance.
05:45Calista, no!
05:47Help me!
05:50Calista, what did you do?
05:52Apollo, please.
05:54Don't blame my sister.
05:57She only did this because she loves you.
06:00She was confused.
06:02Phaedra!
06:03How could you be so cruel to your own sister?
06:06Report her to Goddess Athena!
06:08Expels her from Olympus!
06:10A monster like her doesn't deserve to stay here!
06:13The trial against me began.
06:14Goddess Athena sat above us, her expression grave.
06:17Calista, do you realize what you've done wrong?
06:21I opened my mouth, but someone beat me to it.
06:24Dionysus, Phaedra's most loyal follower.
06:26Goddess Athena, I saw it with my own eyes.
06:29Calaita stabbed her!
06:31Phaedra brought her medicine because she was worried about Calaita, and Calaita attacked a her!
06:41She's still pretending to be innocent.
06:43With that kind of talent, all she thinks about is stealing someone else's man.
06:47She should look in a mirror.
06:48Who would ever choose her?
06:50Goddess, you always said that character is more important than strength.
06:54I ask that Calaita be punished.
06:56In our past life, when she ruined my face, Apollo defended me just like this.
07:00Back then, I was the only one who stood up and begged for her mercy.
07:04Calista is still my sister.
07:06I don't blame her anymore.
07:07I only hope she admits her mistake and become a better person.
07:12Still protecting her sister even now.
07:14Phaedra is too kind.
07:16Calista is disgusting.
07:18No, anyone who commits a crime must pay the price.
07:24That's Apollo's divine weapon.
07:26It could kill even a true god.
07:27He's going to kill her.
07:29Apollo, stop this at once.
07:31The truth has not been fully investigated.
07:34I saw everything with my own eyes.
07:36How could it be fake?
07:38Calita tried to kill Phaedra first.
07:40She deserves this.
07:41He's right!
07:42Goddess Athena!
07:43This is clearly Caleta's fault.
07:45Caleta doesn't deserve mercy.
07:50Apollo, don't.
07:52Apollo, wait.
07:54Before you kill me, take a look at this.
07:56The mirror of memory?
07:59Sister, you have to help me.
08:01You can control my movements from the sidelines so I can pass the exam.
08:04That's forbidden magic.
08:07We'd be banished.
08:08Then don't get caught.
08:10What good is your combat talent if you can't even do this?
08:18No, that's not true!
08:21She must have faked it!
08:22This isn't real!
08:24But everyone present knew the mirror of memory never lies.
08:28The mirror of memory is a divine artifact from Goddess Athena.
08:32It was meant to record my daily training progress.
08:35Because we are sisters, I didn't want to show this to the world.
08:40But I cannot sit by and let you destroy my name.
08:43I only allowed you into this academy because of Calista!
08:47I never imagined you could be this evil!
08:50Before she could even finish, Phaedra coughed up blood and collapsed.
08:53Her many protectors rushed to catch her.
08:56After the initial shock, they all knelt down to beg for her.
08:59Goddess Athena, please, give Phaedra one more chance!
09:02Her divine soul is damaged and her training has been hard.
09:04She just lost her way.
09:06Please, show her mercy!
09:07Look at that. Incredible beauty truly is a powerful force.
09:11There must be a price for such actions.
09:13Expel this woman from the Olympian Academy immediately.
09:17Spread the word.
09:19Anyone who shelters her is an enemy of Athena!
09:24And Apollo, you ignored the truth.
09:26I can no longer keep you here either.
09:29Leave.
09:30The people begging for mercy suddenly backed away, fearing they'd be next.
09:33Athena?
09:34You're actually kicking me out?
09:36Athena gave him a cold, sharp look.
09:39Is there any justice left in your heart?
09:41I don't blame Athena for being furious.
09:44Apollo tried to kill me without a second thought, completely ignoring the truth.
09:47He honestly thought Athena wouldn't dare to punish him.
09:50Only then did Apollo start to grovel.
09:52Sister, I was wrong.
09:54I see it now.
09:54I'll take any punishment you give me.
09:56Just please, let me stay.
09:58He might be the sun god, but he isn't Zeus' only son.
10:01If his reputation was ruined, his brothers would jump at the chance to mock him.
10:05The other gods quickly stepped in to speak up for him.
10:07Goddess Athena, it's his first offense.
10:10Please, give him one more chance.
10:12Athena was angry, but Apollo was her brother and their bond was deep.
10:16After everyone pleaded for him, she banned him from leaving the Academy for a hundred years.
10:21Athena told me privately why she chose that specific punishment.
10:25She wanted to keep him away from Phaedra so he'd stop drowning in romance and destroying himself.
10:30Sadly, Apollo completely wasted Athena's kindness.
10:33Before Phaedra left, he secretly slept with her.
10:36My incredibly stupid sister actually came to brag about it to my face.
10:40Even if I'm kicked off Mount Olympus, don't think you can steal Apollo from me.
10:46I've already given myself to him, and he promised to take care of me.
10:54Calista, you'll never win against me in this life.
11:00What's the point of having all that combat talent anyway?
11:04Look at how ugly you are.
11:06No man will ever truly love you.
11:09The war between gods and demons is coming soon.
11:13Try not to die out there.
11:15I still want to invite you to my wedding with Apollo.
11:18I felt a wave of exhaustion wash over me.
11:20Having a sister this stupid is honestly embarrassing.
11:23Her divine combat stats were already a disaster.
11:26And now she's wasting her energy on a man?
11:29She's not going to last long.
11:30Phaedra, you should really focus on your training.
11:35Men are never reliable.
11:37I knew my warning would fall on deaf ears, but after being sisters for two lifetimes, I didn't want to
11:43see her completely fall apart.
11:45Instead of listening, she got even angrier.
11:48You're just jealous, aren't you?
11:51In our last life, you were a nobody.
11:54But you still got to marry Apollo.
11:58Only ugly girls need to get strong, because they have no one to protect them.
12:03But with beauty like mine, I just wave my hand and men will die for me.
12:07Why would I ever waste my time with hard training?
12:10I never understood why your life was so perfect before.
12:14But now I see it.
12:15Beauty is the most powerful weapon of all.
12:18She laughed and walked away with her head held high.
12:21I just shook my head.
12:22She has no idea.
12:24Beauty paired with talent is a winning hand.
12:27On its own, it's a death sentence.
12:29But honestly, what does any of that have to do with me anymore?
12:34When the war between gods and demons arrived, Apollo led his army to battle, just as he had in our
12:40past life.
12:41But unlike before, this time Apollo demanded that I join him on the front lines.
12:45I knew exactly what he was doing.
12:47He was still bitter and looking for revenge.
12:50No!
12:51Calista's training isn't finished.
12:52Sending her to the battlefield now is a death sentence!
12:55Instead, he turned to me.
12:57Calista, what do you think?
12:59If you're too scared, I won't force you.
13:02He asked me if I was afraid right in front of everyone.
13:04He was clearly trying to humiliate me.
13:06He was certain I wouldn't dare to go.
13:08After all, the war of gods and demons isn't a school spar.
13:11It's a life or death struggle.
13:15Goddess Athena.
13:16I am willing to go and fight for the peace of Olympus.
13:20Calista, don't let Apollo's words get to you.
13:23You need a few more centuries of training to be truly ready for this.
13:28She's right, Calista.
13:29Don't push yourself.
13:31When I asked you to come along, I was just joking.
13:34Don't take it seriously.
13:35I still didn't give him a second of my attention.
13:37Instead, I quietly chanted a spell, and five massive generals in golden armor appeared.
13:43They all knelt simultaneously before Athena.
13:45In an instant, the entire hall was filled with the sound of people.
13:48How is this possible?
13:50When did you become a true god?
13:52After 300 years of training, he had only just touched the threshold of a demigod.
13:57But I had been training for less than 100 years.
14:01This kind of elite combat talent appears only once every 10,000 years.
14:06Athena was so shocked she couldn't speak for a long time.
14:09She finally placed her hand on my head to test my power.
14:12Then, unable to hide her excitement, she cried out,
14:15Calista, are you truly a true god?
14:21I've been training hard.
14:23And just yesterday, I finally ascended.
14:26With Athena's confirmation, no one dared to question my strength anymore.
14:30Olympus is, after all, a place where the strong are respected.
14:33If I were only slightly stronger than them, they would be jealous.
14:37But, when my power is so far beyond their reach, they can only look up to me in worship.
14:44Apollo, am I qualified to fight alongside you now?
14:47I expected him to feel insulted.
14:49Of course. No one is more qualified than you.
14:52Apollo looked at me with a complicated expression in his eyes.
14:55I didn't understand it, and I didn't care to.
14:58Once Athena gave the nod, I prepared to leave.
15:01I was eager to rush to the battlefield of gods and demons.
15:03It wasn't to win an argument with Apollo.
15:06It was because my training had hit a plateau, and the only way forward was the front lines.
15:11Only through the heat of real combat could I reach the next level of power.
15:15And that training had to be a battle of life and death.
15:19I couldn't think of a better way to do that than the war between gods and demons.
15:22When we arrived at the battlefield, the demon army had already reached the gates of Olympus.
15:27If they broke through, the entire divine realm would collapse.
15:30The demons would have a clear path to strike straight at the heart of our land.
15:35Mount Olympus itself was in grave danger.
15:37The casualties among the true gods were already heavy.
15:41If we hadn't arrived, Olympus wouldn't have lasted two weeks to secure his status, so he wanted to charge out
15:47and fight immediately.
15:49The first battle is always the most critical, and choosing the right lead is everything.
15:53When it came time to pick, Apollo hesitated for a moment, but he ultimately chose me.
15:58An old veteran stepped forward to protest.
16:00She's just a little girl.
16:02Don't let her mess this up.
16:03War is not a game.
16:05It's not just about her losing her life.
16:07If the demons find a weakness in her, she'll get us all.
16:10A goddess froze up on her first day, got possessed, and her whole army was wiped out.
16:16He probably thought I was just there to steal some credit.
16:19Plenty of people do that.
16:20He looked down on me and was total disgusted.
16:22Are you worried about my lack of experience, or do you just hate that I'm a woman?
16:27The battlefield belongs to men.
16:30If you want some easy glory, go to the back and brew some potions.
16:34Then how about a wage?
16:36A wager on what?
16:37When the battle starts, let's see who takes more heads.
16:41If you win, I'll be your servant for 300 years.
16:46But if I win, you give me your divine artifact as a trophy.
16:50Deal.
16:52Smith, change the bet!
16:54If you win, make her your bride instead!
16:56The moment those words left his mouth, Apollo's eyes turned cold as ice.
17:00He shot a sharp look at the talkative soldier, then turned his gaze toward Smith.
17:04Smith waved his hands frantically, shaking his head.
17:07No, no, absolutely not!
17:09I already have someone I love.
17:12Once we drive back the demon army, I'm going home to marry her.
17:17Only then did the tension leave Apollo's face and his gaze softened.
17:20He cleared his throat and went back to organizing the troops.
17:23Once the soldiers were fully assembled, the battle began instantly.
17:27The gates of Olympus swung wide and I led my squad charging in.
17:31Even though it was my first time on a real battle, I didn't feel attentive to him.
17:36Instead, my blood was boiling with excitement.
17:39I was ready to use this fight to push my power to the limit.
17:42As I cut down the enemy, flashes of my past life whispered through my mind.
17:47In that life, I was known across all of Olympus as a useless waste.
17:52Athena had been dead set against Apollo marrying me.
17:54She kept trying to set him up with powerful goddesses from Elite Fans.
17:58But Apollo was determined to have me as his wife.
18:00It wasn't because he loved me so deeply.
18:03It was for two selfish reasons.
18:05First, my beauty was so legendary that no one else could even compare.
18:09Second, I had a rare talent for crafting divine potions that surpassed everyone else.
18:13Whether he wanted to grow stronger or win a war, he couldn't survive without my medicine.
18:18And yet, everyone treated me like garbage, saying I wasn't good enough for him.
18:22They bullied me and looked down on me constantly.
18:25Whenever I went to him for comfort, he would just brush me off.
18:28Well, they aren't wrong. Your combat skills really are pathetic.
18:32You need to learn your place.
18:36Besides, who else is ever going to truly care for you except for me?
18:41But was he truly sincere with me?
18:44No.
18:45He allowed his admirers to bully and belittle me.
18:48He wanted to turn me into an isolated island, so I'd have no choice but to depend on him.
18:53But back then, what could I do?
18:55Olympus respects only the strong.
18:58Without power or a powerful protector, you're just great.
19:01A legendary face can attract countless admiring eyes, sure.
19:05But how much of that is real?
19:07Most are just shallow people lusting after a pretty face.
19:10Among those shallow options, Apollo was the best I had.
19:14He was a true god destined to be the most powerful god of war.
19:18No one would dare touch his woman.
19:19In that life, I regretted a thousand times that I hadn't grabbed the combat talent.
19:24But in this life, I finally have real power.
19:27I never have to live for someone else's approval again.
19:30Fueled by a lifetime of resentment, I fought until I saw a woman.
19:33I will get stronger.
19:35Stronger than everyone until no one dares to look down on me or hurt me ever again.
19:40By the time the battle ended, I was standing in a sea of corpses.
19:44The few remaining demons stared at me with pure terror, trembling in their boots.
19:49To them, I was more terrifying than any demon.
19:52Death or surrender?
19:57They dropped their weapons instantly and surrendered to me.
20:00When we returned to the city, I found Smith.
20:03He was wounded and pale.
20:04Without a word, he handed me his divine artifact.
20:09I lost.
20:10I am giving you my artifact as promised.
20:14No one laughed at him.
20:16Instead, they all looked at me with deep, silent awe.
20:19I smiled and asked,
20:21What's wrong?
20:22We won the battle, but no one seems happy.
20:24I reached out and held Smith to his feet.
20:27The bet was just a joke.
20:29Between us, there should only be mutual respect.
20:31On the battlefield, it doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman.
20:35If you can fight, you're a hero.
20:37Smith rubbed his head awkwardly and gave a goofy grin.
20:41I was running my mouth.
20:43Please, don't take it to heart.
20:45I'll never dare to look down on you again.
20:50Do you even know how many demons you killed by yourself?
20:53I didn't count.
20:56The count is finished.
20:58Twelve thousand three hundred.
21:01Is that a lot or a little?
21:06I've been on this battlefield for two hundred years.
21:10Smith looked like he was about to cry.
21:13The total number of loves I've demoned isn't even ten thousand.
21:16Demons are incredibly hard to kill, but you cut them down like vegetables.
21:20Everywhere you went, nothing was left alive.
21:23Even our own men were afraid to get close to you.
21:26We thought you'd kill us too.
21:29Sorry about that.
21:30First time, you know, no experience.
21:35The men didn't even know how to respond to that.
21:37If this is what no experience looks like, how scary are you going to be when you learn?
21:43The demon lord would probably run away the second he saw you.
21:46Smith's timid tone made everyone burst out laughing, and the tension finally broke.
21:51I laughed along with them.
21:53After that battle, no one dared to underestimate me again.
21:56But the battlefield changed in an instant, and the demons returned quickly.
21:59We had prepared as best we could.
22:01The demon army seemed to have gathered a massive force for a final showdown.
22:05They sent out three high-level gentlemen.
22:08Red Demon, Nightmare, and Colossus.
22:11Our top fighters were just me and Apollo.
22:13We were outnumbered.
22:15Apollo sent messengers back to Olympus for backup, but there was no reply.
22:20Only I knew the real reason why.
22:23In our past life, Apollo reached out to Athena for help during a crisis just like this.
22:28But his brothers, who were greedy for his throne, joined forces to block his message.
22:33They tricked Athena into going somewhere else and cut off all the news from the outside.
22:37Back then, I was the one who risked my life to find Athena and bring Reinforcer.
22:41But this time, I'm not there to help.
22:43Will Phaedra, who is too busy flirting to care, actually help him?
22:48Apollo should be grateful that even though I'm not behind the lines, I'm right here on the battlefield with him.
22:53Otherwise, he'd already be facing a fight he couldn't survive.
22:56This was the exact battle where Phaedra almost lost her soul in the original timeline.
23:00Because of my hard work and my strength, the soldiers under my command have won many fights.
23:05But Apollo's reinforcements are still nowhere to be found.
23:08I know the truth.
23:09We are outnumbered and outmatched.
23:12In this fight, many will not make it back alive.
23:14But if we keep waiting, even more people will die.
23:17All right, everyone, listen to my orders.
23:19To protect Olympus, we go out now.
23:22Fight for our home.
23:23The gates of Olympus swung open.
23:25I charged straight into the building.
23:28At first, nothing could have been in my way.
23:30But the moment I locked eyes with one of the enemy soldiers, my consciousness was suddenly ripped away into another
23:36dimension.
23:37The deafening sounds of war vanished.
23:40Suddenly, I was back at the Great Hall of Olympus.
23:43Apollo was holding Phaedra's hand, receiving blessings from the gods.
23:46It looked exactly like their wedding day.
23:50You are out there risking your life while the man you love is marrying your sister.
23:55Callista, how can you stand such a betrayal?
23:59A voice filled with dark temptation whispered in my ear.
24:01Is it really worth dying for a man like that?
24:05Look at me.
24:06The hero and the beauty.
24:08A match made in heaven.
24:10And look at you.
24:12Even with all your glory on the battlefield, what does it matter?
24:16Your sister does absolutely nothing, yet she gets to enjoy all the rewards.
24:20Did you know?
24:21It's only because of your victories that your sister is able to marry Apollo.
24:26She stole the honor that belongs to you.
24:28Don't you hate her?
24:29And Apollo, you're putting your life on the line for him.
24:33But he still loves your sister.
24:36How pathetic, Callista.
24:39You are truly pathetic.
24:41Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a black bird that didn't belong in the Great Hall.
24:46Chirp, chirp, chirp.
24:47You never shut up, do you?
24:52Is this really the best a demon god can do?
24:54How disappointing.
24:56With one punch, I shattered the illusion.
24:58Nightmare fell to the ground, coughing up blood, staring at me in total shock.
25:02You?
25:02How did you?
25:03I knew what he wanted to ask.
25:05He couldn't believe I saw it through his trap so quickly.
25:08Because none of that is what I actually want, you idiot.
25:11Do you really think every woman is trapped by her own romantic feelings?
25:14I don't care who Apollo's marries.
25:16It won't stop me from winning this war today.
25:19Instead of being someone's wife, I'd much rather be a goddess with my own name.
25:23With that, I finished Nightmare.
25:24His eyes stayed wide with shock as he took his final breath.
25:27This was a beautiful victory.
25:32After consulting with the gods, Athena recommended me to be a high goddess.
25:36I became the youngest high god in the history of Olympus.
25:39Before the victory banquet began, my sister came to find me again.
25:42She was as beautiful as ever.
25:44But her face was clouded with bitterness, which ruined her natural charm.
25:49Kalista, do you think being a high goddess makes you special?
25:51Apollo still loves me.
25:53And in the end, I'm the one who will be his wife.
25:57Mm-hmm.
25:59Congratulations to you.
26:00To me, it never mattered who she married or what she became.
26:02In both my lives, I never truly viewed her as a rival.
26:05What's with that attitude?
26:06Do you look down on me?
26:09Even as a high goddess, you'll always be jealous of me!
26:12She realized I truly didn't care, and it drove her insane.
26:15You're so smug, aren't you?
26:17Do you know why Apollo didn't bring reinforcements on time?
26:21Because I faked an injury.
26:23He stayed behind to save me and ignored the call.
26:26In his eyes, I am a hundred times more important than you.
26:30Well, then I should thank you, sister.
26:33If you hadn't held Apollo back,
26:34I never would have claimed all this massive military glory for myself.
26:39Suddenly, she rushed it, trying her old trick again.
26:42She grabbed my hand, shoved herself back, and tumbled downstairs.
26:45With a sharp scream, her pure white divine dress was stained red with blood.
26:50Apollo appeared right on cue.
26:52Phaedra clutched her stomach, moaning in pain.
26:54My prince, my stomach hurts so much.
26:57My sister, she pushed me.
27:00She wanted to kill our child.
27:02Apollo didn't help her up.
27:04Instead, he gave her a cold look and walked toward me.
27:06Coletta, the banquet is starting.
27:08You should head over first.
27:11My prince, why?
27:14He turned back and looked at her with eyes like ice.
27:17I saw everything just now.
27:19You fell on purpose.
27:21And because of your selfishness,
27:24you nearly cost the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers.
27:28It's time you were punished.
27:33I had no interest in the drama, so I turned to walk away.
27:37Calestra, you set me up again, didn't you?
27:40Sister, if you hadn't tried to set me up, how could I have trapped you?
27:45It was true.
27:46I had invited Apollo to wait in the next room and watch the show.
27:49I could overlook her trying to hurt me.
27:51But she crossed the line when she used the lives of innocent soldiers just to spite me.
27:55Apollo arrived late to the victory banquet, looking quite pale.
27:58I was surrounded by my fellow soldiers and had no desire to talk to him.
28:02But he insisted on pulling me aside and asked...
28:05Calista, would you be willing to marry me?
28:07I was genuinely shocked.
28:09My prince, you're taking this joke too far.
28:12I admit, I was shallow before.
28:13I was blinded by beauty.
28:14But while fighting by your side, I found myself uncontrollably drawn to you.
28:18Your face may not compare to Phaedra's,
28:19but your courage and strength are far more beautiful.
28:22Calista, please, give me a chance.
28:24I looked at him and wanted to laugh, but I couldn't even find the energy.
28:27He hadn't changed at all.
28:28He was still the same man who only ever cared about himself.
28:32I'm sorry, my prince.
28:33Even though my sister and I are enemies, she is still my sister.
28:37You two have already shared a bed.
28:39I simply cannot accept that.
28:41Thank you for the compliment.
28:43With your status, I'm sure you'll find a much better wife.
28:46I'm not a fool.
28:47I'm not jumping back into that fire.
28:48Is there anything better than being a high goddess through my own power?
28:52Why would I ever want to be a stepping stone for a man?
28:54To my surprise, Phaedra had been hiding in the shadows
28:57and overheard Apollo's confession to me.
29:00She waited until I was deep in my cups,
29:01then lunged on the darkness and shook.
29:04She spiraled into madness again.
29:06Why?
29:07Why do I lose to you no matter what I choose?
29:11No, I won't allow it.
29:12I want to start over again.
29:14The chill of her intent had already cleared the wine from my head.
29:17I looked at her with nothing but pity.
29:19Phaedra, do you still not understand?
29:21I never once viewed you as my rival.
29:24When you had the top-tier combat talent, did you cherish it?
29:27When you were my age, did you spend a single day actually training?
29:32You can choose your talent, but you can't replace your brain.
29:35Do you get it now?
29:36Impossible! That's impossible!
29:38It's all your fault!
29:40You bewitched Apollo, that's why he doesn't want me!
29:42Let's start over!
29:44Next time, I will win for sure!
29:46I'm sorry, but I don't feel like swapping anymore.
29:49She was pathetic, utterly fragile.
29:51In this life, she didn't even have the strength to drag me down to the grave with her.
29:55Why won't you kill me? Just kill me already!
29:58Kill her?
29:59There was absolutely no need for that.
30:02I'd much rather watch her continue to ruin her own life,
30:04one stupid mistake at a time.
