Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I lay on the stone bed of the sacred infirmary, trembling violently.
00:00:05Every doctor in the Wind Kingdom was on edge for my sake.
00:00:09Yet my husband, Lord Ronan, was nowhere to be seen.
00:00:15I was used to his coldness.
00:00:18But at this moment, having gambled my life and burned my manor to bear this child,
00:00:25the ridiculous shred of hope still flickered in my heart.
00:00:28Years ago, when I was in a desperate situation, the young Ronan saved my life.
00:00:36That kindness became my lifelong obsession.
00:00:39But he had no idea that I was the sole pure-blooded daughter of the High Elfin King.
00:00:48When I met with disaster in my youth, I was rescued by him,
00:00:54the lord of a mere mid-tier Elfin Kingdom.
00:00:58To repay that debt, I concealed my supreme identity.
00:01:02Even using a forbidden ritual to seal away the radiant wings of nature on my back
00:01:09that symbolized supreme divine authority,
00:01:12I willingly became an ordinary female elf with no background,
00:01:17marrying into his territory.
00:01:19Under a false name for years, I remained gentle and submissive,
00:01:24using my own pure-blooded manor to nourish his family,
00:01:28all for a sliver of his affection.
00:01:35Yet, I could never warm a heart of stone.
00:01:38In Ronan's heart, there was only ever room for his first love,
00:01:44Vanessa.
00:01:48The agony intensified as the mana and bloodlines within my body surged in a violent reverse flow,
00:01:56but I held on to my last strength.
00:01:58Yet, all that arrived was a cold, ruthless message from a guard.
00:02:04My lady, the lord is busy with official matters and cannot come.
00:02:08Please deliver the child on your own, and do not delay the lord's business.
00:02:12At that moment, a self-deprecating laugh escaped my lips.
00:02:16This life of mine and the child in my womb never mattered to him.
00:02:21After an entire day and night of deathly struggle,
00:02:24a soft, fragile wile finally shattered the silence of the infirmary.
00:02:29This was my daughter, a precious treasure,
00:02:33bought at the cost of all my manor.
00:02:36I named her Iris.
00:02:39At that exact moment, my personal guard rushed in to report.
00:02:43My lady!
00:02:44The lord has finished his external affairs,
00:02:47and has returned to the main manor in his unicorn sacred carriage.
00:02:50Within my deadland heart, a tiny spark suddenly ignited.
00:02:54I instinctively assumed that no matter how cold or selfish he might be,
00:02:57at least he would at least want to look at his newborn flesh and blood.
00:03:00Forcing my exhausted, severely depleted body up,
00:03:03I carefully held my daughter in her swaddling clothes,
00:03:05making my way toward the promenade of the main temple to see my husband.
00:03:09But just as I reached the promenade and looked through the lush courtyard of the sacred elven tree,
00:03:14I froze instantly,
00:03:16the blood in my veins turning to ice.
00:03:18My husband stood there, tall and elegant in his black robes,
00:03:23and right beside him stood a woman,
00:03:25the first love he had yearned for and never forgotten.
00:03:27It was Vanessa.
00:03:28What struck me like a bolt from the blue was that in front of them stood a little elfin boy,
00:03:32roughly three years old,
00:03:34with long pointed ears and a pair of eyes that flashed with a cunning disguised as inonence.
00:03:39Countless absurd possibilities flashed through my mind,
00:03:42my hands shook uncontrollably from shock and rage,
00:03:45but I forced myself to stand my ground,
00:03:48enduring the tearing pain of the postpartum mana reverse flow.
00:03:52Vanessa looked up and spotted me,
00:03:53her mouth curving into a flitting, provocative smirk.
00:03:56She intentionally leaned closer into Ronan's embrace,
00:04:00her voice soft yet dripping with malice.
00:04:02Ronan.
00:04:03So she's the one who stole my man and my title while I was away?
00:04:07Tenderness instantly flooded Ronan's eyes as he wrapped his arm around her.
00:04:11He comforted her softly,
00:04:13even placing a lingering kiss upon her forehead,
00:04:17right in front of me.
00:04:19When he turned to me,
00:04:20his tone was piercingly cold and dismissive.
00:04:24Think nothing of it,
00:04:25Vanessa.
00:04:26You are my true love.
00:04:29I have never loved her.
00:04:31She is nothing more than a tool to manage the tribe.
00:04:36Ronan,
00:04:36look closely.
00:04:38This is the daughter I just risked my life to give you.
00:04:41Look at her.
00:04:41She was just born.
00:04:42Look how beautiful she is.
00:04:44Ronan cast a brief,
00:04:45indifferent glance downward.
00:04:46In his eyes,
00:04:47there was not a shred of paternal emotion,
00:04:49only naked disgust and annoyance.
00:04:51He swiftly averted his gaze,
00:04:53as though looking at his own flesh and blood for even a second longer
00:04:56would defile his relationship with Vanessa.
00:04:58Vanessa's gaze locked onto the infant in my arms,
00:05:01a flash of venom crossing her eyes.
00:05:04Promptly,
00:05:05she lifted her pitiful face,
00:05:07gazing up at Ronan with a trembling sob.
00:05:10Ronan,
00:05:10she has already born a child for the tribe.
00:05:13Then what about our Jasper?
00:05:14He followed me,
00:05:16wandering among foreign kingdoms.
00:05:17and suffered for three long years.
00:05:19He is your eldest son,
00:05:21the future heir of the Wind Kingdom.
00:05:24Looking at that three-year-old elfin child clinging to their side,
00:05:27I felt as if my soul had been struck by lightning.
00:05:30It turned out that my suspicion was actually the truth.
00:05:33What exactly is going on here?
00:05:36Ronan looked down at me,
00:05:38entirely devoid of guilt,
00:05:39and let out a righteous cold snot.
00:05:43Good,
00:05:43you saw it.
00:05:44Saves me the trouble of explaining.
00:05:45When Vanessa left three years ago,
00:05:46she was already pregnant with my child.
00:05:48For these three years,
00:05:49she raised Jasper alone among foreign kingdoms,
00:05:51enduring endless grievance.
00:05:52Now that she has returned,
00:05:53I must make it then properly,
00:05:55restoring everything that belongs to them a thousand times over.
00:05:59I stared at the picture-perfect family of three before me,
00:06:03as a boundless despair swallowed me like a tidal wave.
00:06:07Just as I was on the verge of collapsing,
00:06:10Ronan's mother,
00:06:11Elodie,
00:06:11walked over hoarsely,
00:06:12flanked by attendants.
00:06:14Three-year-old Jasper was incredibly sweet-talked,
00:06:17twitching his delicate little elven ears.
00:06:19He immediately ran over on his short legs,
00:06:21and tightly hugged Elodie's leg.
00:06:25Grandma,
00:06:26I finally get to see you.
00:06:28Mother said you are the most benevolent and noble elder in the entire kingdom.
00:06:36Elodie,
00:06:37who was extremely superstitious about bloodlines and male esters,
00:06:40melted instantly.
00:06:41She gathered Jasper into her arms,
00:06:45treating him like her ultimate treasure.
00:06:48Seizing the moment,
00:06:49Vanessa leaned into Ronan's embrace,
00:06:51weeping with feigned grievance.
00:06:53It's all my fault.
00:06:55If I had been stronger,
00:06:58your perfect grandson wouldn't have spent three years starving in exile.
00:07:04Elodie's heart ached for them.
00:07:06She snapped her head around to look at me with my deathly pale face,
00:07:10and my weakly wailing daughter,
00:07:13her eyes instantly turning into daggers of piercing disgust.
00:07:17You nearly died just to produce a magicless, useless girl?
00:07:25What a pathetic waste!
00:07:27Pack up that defective brat and drag yourselves to the Withan Tower at the border right now!
00:07:33I won't let you bring your bad luck near my precious grandson!
00:07:39Ronan,
00:07:40Iris is your flesh and blood too.
00:07:44How can you just let them trample all over us?
00:07:48But Ronan's face remained completely indifferent,
00:07:51his tone dripping with disdain.
00:07:54Mother is right.
00:07:56Jasper is the future,
00:07:58and hope of Wind Kingdom.
00:08:01The daughter you gave birth to has a dull divine mark.
00:08:06She is utterly unworthy of living in the main manor.
00:08:12Going to the Tower is your only option.
00:08:16Vanessa threw a provocative glance my way,
00:08:19squeezing her throat to spit out the most poison words.
00:08:23Loser.
00:08:24Since you possess no noble bloodline,
00:08:27Staying here will only bring you self-inflicted humiliation.
00:08:32Looking at their hypocritical,
00:08:34I clenched my fingers,
00:08:35and the very last ember of gratitude within me was completely extinguished.
00:08:41The cold wind wowed through the withered tower,
00:08:44a place that never saw a single ray of moonlight.
00:08:48I held my frail little daughter close,
00:08:51huddling in the corner of the freezing stone wall.
00:08:54Having barely survived childbirth,
00:08:56and with my manor completely burned out,
00:09:00my chest felt as if it were being torn apart.
00:09:03By ten thousand winds.
00:09:07Just when I was completely helpless and desperate,
00:09:10the heavy wooden door of the tower was suddenly pushed open,
00:09:15and Ronan walked in,
00:09:17silhouetted against the light.
00:09:19In that single instant,
00:09:21a ridiculous shred of hope
00:09:23actually flared up once more
00:09:26in my deadland heart.
00:09:28He was the child's father.
00:09:29Had he finally softened coming to bring some mana,
00:09:33to ward off the cold?
00:09:36Or to take my daughter and me back?
00:09:38Forcing my mana-depleased body up,
00:09:41my pale lips trembled.
00:09:43Did you come to see Iris?
00:09:45She caught a chill.
00:09:47And the divine mark on her forehead
00:09:49is growing weaker and weaker.
00:09:51Please, save her.
00:09:53But before I could even get close,
00:09:57Ronan took a disgusted step backward.
00:09:59Serafana.
00:10:00As if the child and I were some kind of filth.
00:10:02I only came here to warn you.
00:10:05Stay in your withered tower quietly.
00:10:08Sign this declaration,
00:10:09relinquishing your rights as the primary mistress,
00:10:10and don't try any clever tricks.
00:10:13I felt as though I had been struck by lightning,
00:10:16taking a shocked step back.
00:10:17I stared firmly at the man
00:10:19I had loved with my very life for three years.
00:10:24You came all the way to this desolate place,
00:10:27not to cast a single glance at your own daughter,
00:10:30but merely to force me to give up my position
00:10:34and to warn me?
00:10:36Ronan let out a cold laugh,
00:10:38his eyes filled with arrogance
00:10:40and a fierce protectiveness for Vanessa.
00:10:42Vanessa is kind-hearted.
00:10:46And she suffered terribly.
00:10:49While wandering among foreign kingdoms with our child,
00:10:52I will not allow anyone
00:10:53to disrupt Jasper's upbringing.
00:10:57I am warning you,
00:10:59put away that jealous face of yours.
00:11:02Stay where you belong.
00:11:04And do not provoke Vanessa and her son
00:11:06if I discover that you dare
00:11:08to secretly harm them
00:11:12or attempt to steal the resources
00:11:14that belong to Jasper.
00:11:16I will absolutely show you no mercy!
00:11:19In the darkness,
00:11:20my daughter let out a faint, protesting cry.
00:11:23Ronan, however, did not bother
00:11:25to spare even a glance from the corner of his eye.
00:11:27He turned and departed resolutely,
00:11:30the heavy iron door slamming shut
00:11:31with a resounding thud.
00:11:33Holding my child,
00:11:34I collapsed into the freezing mud,
00:11:36laughing at my own stupidity.
00:11:38He came only to warn me.
00:11:41The night sky hung low
00:11:42as the freezing wind raged
00:11:44through the dead silence of the withered tower,
00:11:47preventing even a single slimmer of moonlight
00:11:49from penetrating the darkness.
00:11:51I had burned through the vast majority
00:11:53of my mana during childbirth.
00:11:55The magic within my body
00:11:56had completely dried up.
00:11:57I could only hold my little princess
00:11:59tightly in my arms,
00:12:00using my own faint body wheat
00:12:02to provide warmth for my infant,
00:12:03who was running a continuous low fever
00:12:05inside her swaddling clothes.
00:12:07Yet at this very moment,
00:12:09inside the Wind Kingdom's main temple,
00:12:11there was a completely different scene
00:12:13of brilliant lights,
00:12:15music,
00:12:16and extravagant luxury.
00:12:17Vanessa and her son sat on a soft couch
00:12:19covered in the rarest luminescent beast skins,
00:12:22basking in the attention and adoration
00:12:24of all the high-ranking elves
00:12:25in the kingdom.
00:12:27Three-year-old Jasper fluttered
00:12:29the tiny green elbin wings
00:12:30that had just begun to develop on his back.
00:12:32Holding an exquisite elbin sacred berry
00:12:34in his hands,
00:12:35his face completely smeared with juice,
00:12:38Elada sat high upon her throne,
00:12:39grinning from ear to ear,
00:12:41her eyes overflowing with a dotting pride.
00:12:44Watching this warm and harmonious scene,
00:12:46the more Elada looked at this chubby grandson,
00:12:49the more pleasing he seemed to her eye.
00:12:51Stroking the staff that symbolized her power
00:12:53as the high priestess,
00:12:54she impatiently turned to prompt my husband,
00:12:57Ronan,
00:12:57who was standing beside her.
00:12:58Ronan,
00:12:59Vanessa and her son have wandered
00:13:01among foreign kingdoms for years,
00:13:03enduring endless hardships.
00:13:05Now my precious eldest grandson
00:13:07is already three years old,
00:13:09and the wind-attributed mana within his body
00:13:11is so abundant.
00:13:13How can he continue to stay
00:13:15in the guest room so illegitimately?
00:13:17Tonight,
00:13:18you must have Vanessa and Jasper
00:13:20officially move into the Lord's main manon,
00:13:22into the bedchambers
00:13:24that rightfully belong
00:13:25to the primary mistress and the heir!
00:13:27Ronan lowered his eyes,
00:13:28looking at Vanessa's adoration-filled face,
00:13:31as she leaned coyly against him,
00:13:33and then at the child,
00:13:34who was sweetly calling him father.
00:13:36The scales in his heart
00:13:37had already tipped completely.
00:13:39Without a shred of hesitation,
00:13:41he nodded his agreement coldly on the spot.
00:13:43Mother is right.
00:13:45The best location in the main manor
00:13:47should naturally be reserved
00:13:48for the heir who truly carries
00:13:50the excellent bloodline of our kingdom.
00:13:52Seeing her son agree so readily,
00:13:54Aloy's face flushed with even more delight.
00:13:57Standing up hauntily
00:13:58while leaning on her staff,
00:13:59she addressed all the tribal high officials present
00:14:01in a grand, supreme tone.
00:14:04Not only that,
00:14:05Wind Kingdom has thrived to this day,
00:14:07and our bloodline is supreme.
00:14:09Jasper is exceptionally bright,
00:14:10displaying astonishing magical talent
00:14:12at such a tender age.
00:14:13He deserves the recognition of all kingdoms!
00:14:15I propose that in three days,
00:14:17we hold the most grand and magnificent
00:14:19official announcement celebration
00:14:21for three-year-old Jasper.
00:14:22We shall high-profilely declare him
00:14:25as the primary heir
00:14:26of our Wind Kingdom's future!
00:14:29In three days,
00:14:30Jasper would be declared the primary heir.
00:14:32Following her move into the main manor,
00:14:34Vanessa began to carry herself entirely
00:14:36as the queen of the Wind Kingdom.
00:14:38Dressed in extravagant silks,
00:14:39she glided through the temple
00:14:40flanked by her entourage,
00:14:42soaking in the endless, shallow flattery.
00:14:44Yet a stubborn sliver of anxiety
00:14:46remained buried deep in her chest.
00:14:48Whenever night fell,
00:14:49she would catch Ronan standing on the balcony,
00:14:51staring with a conflicted expression
00:14:52towards that dark, desolate, withered tower.
00:14:55Though he spoke with absolute coldness,
00:14:56subconsciously,
00:14:57he still harbored a faint trace of worry
00:14:59for my baby and me,
00:15:00a worry he refused to admit even to himself.
00:15:03This lingering gaze made Vanessa's jealousness
00:15:05and paranoia grow wild.
00:15:07As long as my daughter and I were breathing,
00:15:10her position and Jasper's future
00:15:12would never be safe.
00:15:13An opportunity presented itself
00:15:14sooner than expected.
00:15:15Early this morning,
00:15:17desperate to give my frail daughter
00:15:18a single drop of clean water,
00:15:20my completely helpless self
00:15:21was forced to drag my broken body
00:15:23out of the tower,
00:15:24heading deep into the woods
00:15:25to harvest pure spring water
00:15:26filtered by ancient divine marks.
00:15:28Learning of this,
00:15:29Vanessa's eyes turned ice cold.
00:15:31She knew her moment had arrived.
00:15:33She quietly dismissed the guards
00:15:34around the main manor,
00:15:36taking only a few of her most
00:15:37ruthlessest confidence
00:15:38as she slipped into the dark,
00:15:41abandoned withered tower.
00:15:42The wooden door creaked open,
00:15:44letting in the piercing chill.
00:15:46Vanessa stepped over the debris,
00:15:48advancing slow pace by slow pace
00:15:50until she stopped right in front
00:15:52of the primitive stone bed.
00:15:54Inside her swaddling clothes,
00:15:55newborn Iris was sleeping soundly.
00:15:57Though her little face was pale,
00:15:59the faint golden divine mark
00:16:01shimmering on her forehead
00:16:02radiated an undeniable nobility and purity,
00:16:04a mark that made Vanessa's eyes
00:16:06burn with pure envy.
00:16:08You pathetic little freak.
00:16:11You think you're worthy of Ronan's blood?
00:16:14If you want to blame anyone,
00:16:16blame your useless mother.
00:16:18The mask of innocence
00:16:19slipped from Vanessa's face,
00:16:21her eyes twisting with pure malice.
00:16:23From her wide sleeve,
00:16:25she slowly pulled out a porcelain vial
00:16:27that emitted an eerie green glow.
00:16:30Inside was a forbidden, lethal toxin
00:16:32she had purchased at an exorgent price
00:16:34from the black market.
00:16:36Soul-eating elixir,
00:16:37specifically designed to dissolve
00:16:39a newborn elf's mana core
00:16:41and cause their soul to rot away inch by inch.
00:16:44With a trembling hand,
00:16:45she popped the cork
00:16:46and violently clamped her fingers
00:16:48over my baby's fragile jaw.
00:16:50The sharp pain forced my sleeping princess
00:16:53to snap her eyes open,
00:16:55letting out a weak, agonizing cry.
00:16:58But Vanessa was entirely unfazed,
00:17:00with a distorted, demomic sneer.
00:17:03She forced the entire bottle
00:17:04of icy corrosive poison
00:17:06straight down my infant's tender throat.
00:17:08When I returned to the withered tower,
00:17:11thoroughly exhausted,
00:17:13and clutching that tiny container
00:17:15of pure spring water
00:17:16tightly to my chest,
00:17:17what greeted me was not
00:17:18the gentle sound of my daughter's breathing,
00:17:20but a deathly silence.
00:17:22My heart skipped a beat
00:17:24and a boundless panic
00:17:26instantly seized me
00:17:28in a death grip.
00:17:30I practically crawled
00:17:31and scrambled my way
00:17:33toward that freezing stone bed.
00:17:36Iris.
00:17:39Mommy is back.
00:17:41The moment my trembling hands
00:17:42pulled back the swaddling clothes,
00:17:44the sight before me
00:17:46caused me to drop
00:17:47into an abyss of ice.
00:17:50Her originally pink little face
00:17:53was now completely white,
00:17:57even faintly tinged
00:17:59with an eerie, sickly green,
00:18:01deathly energy.
00:18:02What truly shattered my soul
00:18:04was that the faint
00:18:05golden elven divine mark
00:18:06on her forehead,
00:18:07which had been flickering softly,
00:18:10was now darkened
00:18:12across a massive area.
00:18:14Iris!
00:18:17Wake up.
00:18:19Look at Mommy.
00:18:21Don't scare Mommy.
00:18:23Sprinting once more
00:18:24toward the Wind Kingdom's infirmary.
00:18:30I slammed the infirmary doors open
00:18:32with immense force.
00:18:35The sitting doctor
00:18:36took one look
00:18:37at the infant in my arms,
00:18:38who was hanging onto life
00:18:40by a mere thread,
00:18:41and his face
00:18:42instantly changed color.
00:18:44His hands trembled
00:18:45as he probed
00:18:47the fluctuations
00:18:48within my daughter's body,
00:18:49his eyes filling with horror.
00:18:53Heavens!
00:18:54This is the forbidden poison
00:18:56that destroys the mana core!
00:18:59The child's natural core
00:19:00is withering away,
00:19:01inch by inch.
00:19:03She is in critical danger
00:19:05and will not survive
00:19:06past half a month.
00:19:07The doctor's words
00:19:08were like a massive hammer,
00:19:09smashing my heart
00:19:10to the point
00:19:11where I wished
00:19:12I could die
00:19:13on the spot.
00:19:15To suppress this aggressive toxin,
00:19:18we must immediately
00:19:19inject
00:19:20a powerful,
00:19:22compatible mana
00:19:23from her father's kingdom
00:19:24to protect her heart path.
00:19:28Otherwise...
00:19:29Trembling,
00:19:30I closed my eyes,
00:19:31disregarding any cost.
00:19:33I forcibly reversed
00:19:34the remaining essence
00:19:34within my body,
00:19:36frantically activating
00:19:37the soul transmission
00:19:38unique to the elven race.
00:19:40A connection
00:19:41never lightly opened
00:19:42unless it was a matter
00:19:43of life or death.
00:19:45Rowan,
00:19:45save our daughter!
00:19:46Save our daughter!
00:19:48From the other end,
00:19:49there was only
00:19:49a deathly silence,
00:19:51followed by a completely
00:19:52heartless rejection.
00:19:54Rowan had actually
00:19:55severed my soul transmission,
00:19:57treating my soul cry
00:19:58for hair
00:19:59entirely as nothing.
00:20:04Rowan!
00:20:05I beg you,
00:20:08connect to me.
00:20:12Save Iris.
00:20:14I knelt on the freezing floor
00:20:16of the infirmary,
00:20:17sending out the soul transmission
00:20:18over and over again.
00:20:19Even though maintaining it
00:20:21for every additional second
00:20:22brought a tearing,
00:20:23agonizing pain
00:20:24to my dried-up sea
00:20:25of consciousness,
00:20:26I refuse to let go.
00:20:28At this moment,
00:20:29inside the Wind Kingdom's
00:20:30main manor,
00:20:32Ronan was patiently
00:20:33keeping Vanessa
00:20:33and her son company.
00:20:35Three-year-old Jasper,
00:20:37dressed in a luxurious outfit
00:20:38embroidered with green leaves
00:20:40and gold thread,
00:20:41was pulling back
00:20:42a delicate short
00:20:43wooden mana bow.
00:20:47When he hit the bullseye,
00:20:49it drew bursts of gasps
00:20:51and praise
00:20:51from the surrounding attendants.
00:20:54Perhaps perturbed
00:20:55and annoyed
00:20:55by my weeping,
00:20:57blood-soaked pleas
00:20:58that continuously echoed
00:21:00in his mind
00:21:01like an act
00:21:01of self-mutilation
00:21:03after coldly cutting it off
00:21:05over a dozen times.
00:21:06Ronan finally accepted
00:21:07the connection.
00:21:09His phantom projection
00:21:10materialized in mid-air,
00:21:12looking down at my battered
00:21:13and wretched form
00:21:14from a great height,
00:21:15his eyes filled
00:21:16with absolute impatience
00:21:17and disgust.
00:21:19Seraphana,
00:21:20haven't you thrown
00:21:21enough of a tantrum?
00:21:23Is the soul transmission
00:21:24something you use
00:21:26as a prop
00:21:28to throw jealous fits?
00:21:30Ronan,
00:21:31no,
00:21:32Iris has been poisoned.
00:21:33Her mana core
00:21:34is about to shatter
00:21:35and the doctor said
00:21:36we must have
00:21:36the compatible mana
00:21:37from your body
00:21:38immediately
00:21:39to protect
00:21:40her heart path.
00:21:41I beg you,
00:21:43come and see her.
00:21:45Poisoned?
00:21:45The moment Vanessa
00:21:47and Jasper
00:21:48move into the main house,
00:21:50you begin fabricating
00:21:52such an absurd lie.
00:21:53Are you trying
00:21:54to curse my heir?
00:21:55I am not lying!
00:21:58She is really
00:21:59about to die.
00:22:04Enough!
00:22:07I know you are resentful
00:22:08because you gave birth
00:22:10to a daughter
00:22:12and your position
00:22:14as the Lord's
00:22:14concord
00:22:15is insecure.
00:22:16But I am
00:22:17warning you,
00:22:18do not use
00:22:20a child
00:22:21as an excuse
00:22:24to disturb me.
00:22:27Jasper has to try
00:22:28on his robes
00:22:29for the dawn celebration
00:22:30in a moment.
00:22:30I have no time
00:22:34to play mad
00:22:35with you!
00:22:38Dropping these
00:22:39piercingly cold words,
00:22:41Ronion did not
00:22:42wait for me
00:22:42to utter
00:22:44another syllable
00:22:44before callously
00:22:46cutting off
00:22:47the soul transmission
00:22:48with a wave
00:22:48of his hand.
00:22:50The phantom
00:22:51projection in mid-air
00:22:53dissolved instantly
00:22:54and along with it,
00:22:55the very last
00:22:57shred of my hope
00:22:58was crushed.
00:23:00To pieces.
00:23:02After the soul
00:23:03transmission was severed,
00:23:05Ronion stared
00:23:05at his empty palm,
00:23:06his brow frowned
00:23:07tightly together.
00:23:08Even though he utterly
00:23:09detested Serafina's
00:23:10jealous fits,
00:23:11he hearing a word
00:23:12like dying
00:23:12still caused a faint
00:23:13inexplicable wave
00:23:14of irritation
00:23:15and uneasiness
00:23:16to ripple
00:23:17through the depths
00:23:17of his heart.
00:23:18Vanessa,
00:23:18who was watching
00:23:19from the side,
00:23:20keenly captured
00:23:21the shift
00:23:22in Ronion's expression.
00:23:23A flash of panic
00:23:25crossed her eyes,
00:23:26but it was quickly
00:23:27replaced by a profound,
00:23:29calculating look.
00:23:30Vanessa stepped
00:23:31forward gently,
00:23:32consideratively smoothing
00:23:33out the wrinkles
00:23:34on Ronion's groves
00:23:35as she spoke
00:23:35in a strained,
00:23:36high-pitched voice.
00:23:38Ronion,
00:23:38the primary mistress
00:23:39wept so heartbreakingly
00:23:40during the soul transmission.
00:23:41It has left my heart
00:23:42in a bit of a flutter as well.
00:23:44How about we go
00:23:45to the infirmary
00:23:46to take a look right now?
00:23:47After all,
00:23:48the little princess
00:23:48is also your flesh and blood.
00:23:50He absolutely mustn't
00:23:52let anything terrible happen.
00:23:53Seeing Vanessa
00:23:54being so magnanimous
00:23:55and understanding,
00:23:56the irritation in Ronion's heart
00:23:58dissipated quite a bit
00:23:59and he nodded immediately.
00:24:01Very well.
00:24:02We will do as you say.
00:24:04I want to see
00:24:06what kind of trick
00:24:07she can fabric it.
00:24:08Then I will go prepare
00:24:09some mana spring water
00:24:10to soothe the child's mind.
00:24:13Wait for me a moment.
00:24:14Vanessa turned around
00:24:16and the moment she was
00:24:17at an angle
00:24:17where Ronion could not see her,
00:24:19the tenderness on her face
00:24:20stently transformed
00:24:21into a twisted,
00:24:22venomous malice.
00:24:23She did not go
00:24:23to prepare any spring water.
00:24:25Instead,
00:24:26she dispatched
00:24:26Trust Vicent
00:24:27carrying heavy gold
00:24:28mana crystals
00:24:29to secretly bribe
00:24:30the doctor
00:24:30who had received Iris.
00:24:32When Vanessa
00:24:32accompanied Ronion
00:24:33and arrived at the infirmary
00:24:35in a hurried rush,
00:24:36she took advantage
00:24:36of a gap
00:24:37while Ronion
00:24:38was speaking
00:24:38with the nurses outside,
00:24:39using the excuse
00:24:40of checking in,
00:24:41first to stealthily slip
00:24:42into the patient room
00:24:43ahead of him,
00:24:44entirely unnoticed.
00:24:46Staring at the infant
00:24:47on the hospital bed
00:24:48who was hanging
00:24:48onto life
00:24:49by a mere thread,
00:24:51the divine mark
00:24:51on her forehead
00:24:52flickering erratly.
00:24:53She ruthless gleam
00:24:54flashed through
00:24:55Vanessa's eyes.
00:24:58She pulled an advanced,
00:25:00consecutive illusion potion
00:25:01from her sleeve,
00:25:02a formula capable
00:25:04of temporarily suppressing
00:25:05toxicity
00:25:06and forging
00:25:07a false appearance
00:25:08of health.
00:25:09Pinching the little
00:25:10prince's delicate neck,
00:25:11she poured the illusion potion
00:25:13down without
00:25:14the slightest hesitation.
00:25:16the instant
00:25:16the illusion potion
00:25:17entered her mouth.
00:25:18The sickly green
00:25:19deathly energy
00:25:20on the little princess's face
00:25:21began to recede rapidly
00:25:23and the divine mark
00:25:24that was on the verge
00:25:25of cracking
00:25:27eerily smoothed over.
00:25:29Even her burning
00:25:30body temperature
00:25:30began to return
00:25:31to normal
00:25:32at a rapid pace.
00:25:33Aside from falling
00:25:34into a deep slumber,
00:25:36she looked exactly
00:25:37like a healthy infant
00:25:38who had merely
00:25:39caught an ordinary chill
00:25:40and was sleeping peacefully.
00:25:43The moment Ronan
00:25:44pushed open the door
00:25:45to the patient room,
00:25:46I was collapsed
00:25:47by the bedside,
00:25:48my eyes filled
00:25:49with absolute disbelief
00:25:51as I stared
00:25:51at my daughter.
00:25:53Just moments ago
00:25:54after Vanessa
00:25:54came in,
00:25:55under a false pretext,
00:25:58the deathly energy
00:25:59on Iris's face
00:26:00suddenly vanished.
00:26:01Even her shriveled,
00:26:03divine mark
00:26:03smoothed out.
00:26:06Ronan stepped forward
00:26:07with a freezing expression.
00:26:12He only touched
00:26:13her forehead.
00:26:16Irissa,
00:26:17her temperature
00:26:18was normal,
00:26:19her breathing
00:26:19was steady.
00:26:22Then he whipped
00:26:23his head around
00:26:23staring dead
00:26:24at my deathly
00:26:25pale face.
00:26:27His voice
00:26:28was sharp,
00:26:29cutting,
00:26:30and poisoned.
00:26:32Seraphana!
00:26:33This is the
00:26:34life-threatening
00:26:35danger you spoke of?
00:26:37This is the
00:26:38shattered core
00:26:39you claimed?
00:26:41Her temperature
00:26:42is normal,
00:26:43her breathing
00:26:43is steady.
00:26:45As the Lord's
00:26:45Concord,
00:26:46you dared
00:26:47to deceive me.
00:26:49Using your
00:26:50newborn daughter
00:26:51as bait
00:26:51for a jealous tantrum,
00:26:54you disgust me.
00:26:56Looking at
00:26:56his furious face,
00:26:58my entire body
00:26:59turned cold.
00:26:59No!
00:27:01Ronan,
00:27:01listen to me!
00:27:02Just moments ago,
00:27:03she was not like this!
00:27:04It was Vanessa!
00:27:05She came in just now,
00:27:07she fed something
00:27:08to Modell!
00:27:08But Ronan
00:27:09did not believe me
00:27:10for even a second.
00:27:12So I turned
00:27:13to the doctor
00:27:13beside us,
00:27:14as if he were
00:27:16my last saving straw.
00:27:17Doctor,
00:27:18speak up!
00:27:21You clearly
00:27:22told me
00:27:22had been struck
00:27:23by a forbidden poison.
00:27:25You said
00:27:25it was destroying
00:27:26her core,
00:27:27and she would not
00:27:27survive half a month!
00:27:29But the doctor,
00:27:30who had been pale
00:27:30with Terra moments ago,
00:27:32had already accepted
00:27:33Vanessa's massive bribe.
00:27:34He did not dare
00:27:35look at me.
00:27:36Then,
00:27:37syllable by syllable,
00:27:38he pushed me
00:27:39into the abyss.
00:27:40Reporting to the lord,
00:27:41the little princess
00:27:42merely caught a bit
00:27:42of a breeze,
00:27:43but there may be
00:27:44O double.
00:27:44It is only
00:27:45ordinary discomfort.
00:27:46The primary mistress
00:27:47is unsettled
00:27:48after childbirth,
00:27:49overly sensitive
00:27:49and blowing a small
00:27:50matter out of proportion.
00:27:51My entire world
00:27:52shattered like a bolt
00:27:52for moments of blue.
00:27:53How could it
00:27:53suddenly change?
00:27:55Watching me fall
00:27:56to the ground
00:27:56in a distrevelled,
00:27:57helpless state,
00:27:59Vanessa,
00:27:59hidden just behind
00:28:00Ronan,
00:28:01let a fleeting,
00:28:02venomous smile
00:28:02of triumph play
00:28:03on the corners
00:28:04of her lips.
00:28:05Then,
00:28:06stepping forward
00:28:06at the perfect moment,
00:28:07she submissively
00:28:08wrapped her arm
00:28:09aground Ronan's,
00:28:10practically melting
00:28:11half her body
00:28:12into his embrace.
00:28:13While casting
00:28:14feigned looks of pity
00:28:15at the little princess
00:28:16on the sickbed,
00:28:17she continuously
00:28:18blew poisonous whispers
00:28:19into Ronan's ear.
00:28:20Ronan,
00:28:21don't blame
00:28:22the primary mistress
00:28:22too much.
00:28:24Iris is a girl,
00:28:25after all,
00:28:26born with a weak constitution.
00:28:28It is only natural
00:28:29she panicked
00:28:29when a minor chill
00:28:30threw the child
00:28:31into such a state.
00:28:32It's just,
00:28:34the primary mistress
00:28:35is far too sensitive.
00:28:37Always catching
00:28:38at shadows
00:28:39and blowing
00:28:40minor inconveniences
00:28:41entirely out of proportion.
00:28:43She looked up,
00:28:44her eyes brimming
00:28:45with tenderness
00:28:45and adoration.
00:28:47Jasper's succession
00:28:48ceremony is in just
00:28:48two days.
00:28:49That is the true
00:28:50matter of gravity
00:28:51for the kingdom's legacy.
00:28:53We cannot let
00:28:53Seraphina delay
00:28:54your proper business.
00:28:56Over these trivial
00:28:57backyard squabbles.
00:29:01Let us return
00:29:02to the main manor.
00:29:03We shouldn't let
00:29:04her hysteria ruin
00:29:05our precious time
00:29:06with Jasper.
00:29:11Ronan averted
00:29:12his eyes in disgust,
00:29:13refusing to grant
00:29:14even half a glance
00:29:15to his biological
00:29:16daughter on the sickbed.
00:29:18Vanessa,
00:29:18you are the one
00:29:19who is truly sensible.
00:29:21Come,
00:29:21let us return.
00:29:23And ignore
00:29:24this mad woman.
00:29:25If she wishes
00:29:26to stay here
00:29:27and make a spectacle
00:29:28of herself,
00:29:29let her be.
00:29:30Leaning triumphantly
00:29:31against Ronan,
00:29:32Vanessa accompanied him
00:29:33as he strode out
00:29:33of the infirmary.
00:29:34Only when the footsteps
00:29:36of the pair
00:29:36had completely faded
00:29:38did the doctor,
00:29:39who had been kneeling
00:29:40on the ground,
00:29:41suddenly collapse
00:29:42in a heap.
00:29:43He scrambled
00:29:44on his hands
00:29:44and knees
00:29:45to my feet,
00:29:46cooting frantically
00:29:47while crying out
00:29:48in absolute despair.
00:29:49You're right
00:29:50as primary mistress.
00:29:52Please do not
00:29:53blame me.
00:29:55I deserve to die.
00:29:57I deserve to die.
00:29:58Why did you lie
00:29:59just now?
00:30:00Madam Vanessa
00:30:01has officially moved
00:30:02into the Lord's
00:30:03main mansion
00:30:03with the heir
00:30:04and enjoys
00:30:05the Lord's
00:30:05absolute favor.
00:30:07She is the future
00:30:09primary mistress
00:30:10of the kingdom.
00:30:11Before the Lord
00:30:11entered just now,
00:30:12she pulled me aside
00:30:13and threatened
00:30:14that if I did not
00:30:15cooperate,
00:30:15she would take
00:30:16my entire family's
00:30:17lives tonight
00:30:17and even have the Lord
00:30:18take my head.
00:30:18She would truly kill me.
00:30:19Listening to the
00:30:20doctor's desperate wails,
00:30:21I looked at my daughter
00:30:22on the sickle,
00:30:22whose condition
00:30:23was forcibly masked
00:30:24as peaceful
00:30:24by the illusion of poison.
00:30:26Ronan,
00:30:26to cater to your first love,
00:30:27you personally abandoned
00:30:28the sole opportunity
00:30:29to save your biological daughter.
00:30:31You will live
00:30:32to regret this.
00:30:36Three days later,
00:30:38Elid spared no expense,
00:30:40utilizing over half
00:30:41of the Wind Kingdom's treasury
00:30:42to organize an incredibly
00:30:44extravagant dawn trial
00:30:45for three-year-old Jasper.
00:30:47The streets of the main city
00:30:49were carpeted
00:30:51with sacred
00:30:51florencent petals
00:30:52and they went so far
00:30:55as to exceptionally tame
00:30:57nine pure white unicorns
00:30:59to draw a crystal
00:31:01invented float
00:31:03in a high-profile parade
00:31:05across the territory.
00:31:08As Vanessa held the hand
00:31:10of a magnificently
00:31:11dressed Jasper,
00:31:13his delicate little
00:31:14elven wings fluttering
00:31:16and ascended the float.
00:31:19Waves of deafening
00:31:20cheers erupted
00:31:21across the skies
00:31:22of the Wind Kingdom.
00:31:24Meanwhile,
00:31:24in a dark corner
00:31:25of the Grand Hall,
00:31:26I cradled my daughter,
00:31:28whose life force
00:31:29was growing fainter
00:31:29by the moment,
00:31:31watching this absurd fast
00:31:32with cold distachment.
00:31:33Without the Lord's
00:31:34explicit permission,
00:31:36my daughter and I
00:31:37lacked even the right
00:31:38to enter the main hall.
00:31:41Forced to stand
00:31:43in the freezing wind
00:31:44of the outer gallery.
00:31:45Just then,
00:31:46Vanessa,
00:31:47basking in the adoration
00:31:48atop the float,
00:31:50spotted my figure
00:31:51from afar.
00:31:51With a flicker
00:31:52in her eyes,
00:31:53she intentionally
00:31:54walked towards me
00:31:55with a smug smile.
00:31:56Covering her mouth
00:31:57with a handkerchief,
00:31:58she let out a feigned sigh
00:31:59of self-reploach,
00:32:00though her eyes
00:32:01were filled
00:32:02with condescending charity.
00:32:04Sister,
00:32:05do not blame Mother
00:32:06and Ronin
00:32:06for being heartless.
00:32:07The Withered Tower
00:32:08is peaceful,
00:32:09making it the perfect place
00:32:11for your magic-deficient
00:32:12daughter to recuperate.
00:32:13Today is our Jasper's
00:32:14succession celebration.
00:32:15You shouldn't have
00:32:16brought her out
00:32:16in the first place.
00:32:17Look at her.
00:32:18Even her divine mark
00:32:19is on the verge
00:32:20of dispersing.
00:32:21We must not let her clash
00:32:23with Jasper's
00:32:24unicorn fortune
00:32:25after today.
00:32:27Jasper will be
00:32:27the rightful first heir,
00:32:29while you,
00:32:30the primary mistress,
00:32:31are fit only to watch us
00:32:32ascend to the peak
00:32:33from the mud
00:32:33for the rest of your life!
00:32:35While Vanessa
00:32:35subjected me
00:32:36to endless mockery,
00:32:37the parade reached
00:32:38its absolute climax.
00:32:40Clad in a magnificent
00:32:42silver-white robe,
00:32:43a commanding
00:32:44and majestic Ronin
00:32:45ascended the central
00:32:46divine altar
00:32:47under the gaze
00:32:48of the masses.
00:32:49Raising his hands,
00:32:50he used amplification magic
00:32:52to declare
00:32:52to the entire field
00:32:54his voice echoing
00:32:55through the heavens,
00:32:56arrogant and ecstatic.
00:32:58Today is not only
00:32:59the celebratory feast,
00:33:00establishing my son
00:33:02Jasper's status
00:33:03as heir,
00:33:03but the starting point
00:33:04for our wind kingdoms
00:33:06to march towards
00:33:07the peak of all kingdoms!
00:33:08I officially announce here
00:33:10that we are exerting
00:33:11every effort to secure
00:33:12multiple major
00:33:13cooperations
00:33:14with the mysterious
00:33:15and supreme
00:33:16High Elven King
00:33:17of the Sanctuary!
00:33:18I couldn't help but laugh.
00:33:19The supreme High Elven King
00:33:21they were so desperately
00:33:22trying to fawn over?
00:33:23That's my father.
00:33:24It's time for me
00:33:25to turn the tables.
00:33:27The moment these words
00:33:29were spoken
00:33:29a massive uproar
00:33:32rippled through the crowd.
00:33:35The High Elven King
00:33:36was the supreme ruler
00:33:37of the entire Elven world.
00:33:41A godlike existence.
00:33:44If they could obtain
00:33:45even a shred
00:33:46of that lord's favor
00:33:47the Wind Kingdom
00:33:48could instantly ascend
00:33:49into the ranks
00:33:50of the super kingdoms.
00:33:52Ronan's face was flushed
00:33:54with absolute pride
00:33:55his features bearing
00:33:56an unmaskable arrogance
00:33:59as he turned
00:34:00an affectionate gaze
00:34:01to Vanessa and Jasper.
00:34:04Once this cooperation
00:34:06is finalized
00:34:07Jasper will not only
00:34:08be the king
00:34:08of the Wind Kingdom
00:34:12but the most noble
00:34:13young commander
00:34:14of the future sanctuary
00:34:16I shall use
00:34:17the eternal prosperity
00:34:18of the supreme sanctuary
00:34:20to make up
00:34:21for the grieges
00:34:22Vanessa
00:34:23and her son
00:34:24suffered
00:34:25over the past
00:34:26three years.
00:34:28Vanessa cast
00:34:29a provocative glance at me
00:34:30her eyes brimming
00:34:32with ostentatience
00:34:33and disdain.
00:34:34Ronan's gaze toward me
00:34:35was also filled
00:34:36with ultimate coldness
00:34:37as if mocking
00:34:39my instant
00:34:39magnificence
00:34:40and incompetence.
00:34:41However
00:34:42watching Ronan's
00:34:43self-righteous declaration
00:34:44I felt not a single
00:34:46shred of anger.
00:34:47Instead
00:34:48I lowered my head
00:34:49and gently kissed
00:34:50the suppressed
00:34:51divine mark
00:34:51on my daughter's forehead.
00:34:53The sole direct
00:34:54bloodline
00:34:55of the High Elven King
00:34:56is
00:34:58at this very moment
00:34:59lying within
00:35:01the swaddling clothes
00:35:02you have dismissed
00:35:04as worthless
00:35:06garbage.
00:35:08Ronan
00:35:08Vanessa
00:35:09the supreme divinity
00:35:11you are scheming
00:35:12to please
00:35:13by any means
00:35:14necessary
00:35:15is the very person
00:35:17you have personally
00:35:18pushed into the abyss
00:35:19and trampled upon
00:35:21in every way.
00:35:22Me
00:35:23the corners of my lips
00:35:24furbed into an icy arc
00:35:25and the suppressed rage
00:35:27and hatred in my heart
00:35:28transformed into
00:35:29the most ruthless
00:35:30anticipation
00:35:31at this moment.
00:35:33Wind Kingdom
00:35:34the final revelry
00:35:36of your lives
00:35:37ends
00:35:38here.
00:35:42After a few days
00:35:43of revelry
00:35:44the disguise
00:35:45of the illusion potion
00:35:46finally collapsed
00:35:48like a castle of sand
00:35:50lying on the stone bed
00:35:52of the withered tower
00:35:53the toxins
00:35:54within my daughter's body
00:35:55broke past all restraint
00:35:56erupting violently
00:35:57she fell
00:35:58into a prolonged coma
00:36:00her tiny body
00:36:01burning with a terrifying fever
00:36:03her lips cracked and pale
00:36:05her breathing reduced
00:36:06to a flickering candle
00:36:07in the wind
00:36:10liable to extinguish
00:36:12at any moment
00:36:12I knelt by the bedside
00:36:15my magic
00:36:16entirely dried up
00:36:17leaving me helpless
00:36:19as I pressed my cheek
00:36:21against her icy
00:36:22little hand
00:36:23my tears
00:36:24long since dried
00:36:26just as I was
00:36:27on the verge
00:36:28of despairing
00:36:29unto death
00:36:29the wooden door
00:36:30of the high tower
00:36:31was suddenly pushed
00:36:32open in a frenzy
00:36:33the Wind Kingdom
00:36:34doctor burst in
00:36:36dripping with sweat
00:36:37his eyes a tangled
00:36:38mess of guilt
00:36:39and terror
00:36:40with trembling hands
00:36:42he presented
00:36:43a crystal bottle
00:36:44radiating a warm
00:36:45sacred golden light
00:36:47like the midday sun
00:36:48this medicine
00:36:49can neutralize
00:36:50all poisons
00:36:51save those
00:36:52on the brink of death
00:36:53and immensely nourish
00:36:54the bloodline
00:36:55of an elven babe
00:36:56please
00:36:57feed it to the
00:36:57little princess quickly
00:36:58this is her
00:36:59sole path
00:37:00to survival
00:37:00staring at that ball
00:37:02of sacred golden light
00:37:03my deadened heart
00:37:04began to beat frantically
00:37:05I snatched
00:37:06the spiritual medicine
00:37:06clutching it tightly
00:37:07to my chest
00:37:08my heart overflowing
00:37:09with joy
00:37:10as I believed
00:37:10my daughter
00:37:11was finally saved
00:37:12trembling
00:37:13I pulled the cork
00:37:15preparing to feed
00:37:16this life-saving drop
00:37:18into my daughter's mouth
00:37:19when the tower door
00:37:20was violently blown open
00:37:22with a resounding clash
00:37:23a wild wind rushed in
00:37:25as Alina
00:37:26flanked by her attendants
00:37:28strode in
00:37:29with a majestic
00:37:30yet greedy expression
00:37:31before I could even react
00:37:33she ruthlessly
00:37:34snatched the crystal
00:37:35bottle
00:37:35right out of my hands
00:37:40Ilion gripped the flask
00:37:41of sacred tree extract
00:37:42tightly
00:37:43feeling the boundless
00:37:44sacred energy
00:37:45swirling within
00:37:46a fanatical greed
00:37:47erupted in her eyes
00:37:48give it back to me
00:37:50that is Iris'
00:37:52life-saving medicine
00:37:53I lunged forward
00:37:54like a madman
00:37:54to reclaim the medicine
00:37:55give it back
00:37:58only to be ruthlessly
00:37:59pinned to the ground
00:38:00by two high-tier guards
00:38:02using their magical staves
00:38:03my knees slammed
00:38:04against the hard stone tiles
00:38:06emitting a sickening crack
00:38:08following closely behind
00:38:10Ronan looked down at me
00:38:12with cold detachment
00:38:14devoid of any pity
00:38:16Alayda trembled
00:38:17with excitement
00:38:17refusing to grant
00:38:19even a single glance
00:38:20to the dying daughter
00:38:21on the sickbed
00:38:22her mind and heart
00:38:23entirely occupied
00:38:24by her precious
00:38:25eldest grandson
00:38:26Roran!
00:38:27look at this
00:38:27this is the legendary
00:38:28sacred tree extract
00:38:29though three-year-old Jasper
00:38:31is extraordinarily gifted
00:38:32his skeletal frame
00:38:34hasn't fully matured yet
00:38:35if we let him drink
00:38:36this divine item
00:38:37his wind magic
00:38:38will undergo
00:38:39a complete metamorphosis
00:38:40allowing him to grow
00:38:41taller and more powerful
00:38:43than any peer
00:38:44entirely solidifying
00:38:46his position
00:38:46as the first heir
00:38:47under the kingdom's
00:38:48spotlight
00:38:49mother is correct
00:38:52leaving such a bloodline
00:38:53treasure in the
00:38:54withered tower
00:38:54would be an utter
00:38:55waste of a divine gift
00:38:57only Jasper
00:38:59is worthy
00:39:00of enjoying it
00:39:01Vanessa walked in
00:39:02at that moment
00:39:02carrying three-year-old Jasper
00:39:03looking at me
00:39:04pinned to the ground
00:39:05by the guards
00:39:06coughing up blood
00:39:07in a disheveled state
00:39:08the triumph
00:39:09and amusement
00:39:09in her eyes
00:39:10threatened to spill over
00:39:11the three of them
00:39:11huddled together
00:39:12admiring the item
00:39:13as if inspecting
00:39:14a supreme treasure
00:39:15filled with praises
00:39:16while I could only
00:39:17watch helplessly
00:39:18as the saving straw
00:39:19belonged to my daughter
00:39:20was stripped away
00:39:22completely
00:39:23amid my agonized
00:39:25weeping
00:39:25that priceless flask
00:39:27of sacred tree extract
00:39:28was gently
00:39:30yet forcefully
00:39:30poured
00:39:31into the mouth
00:39:32of the perfectly
00:39:33lival Jasper
00:39:34by Eladid
00:39:35the moment
00:39:35the divine item
00:39:36entered his mouth
00:39:37a blinding golden current
00:39:39erupted across
00:39:40Jasper's body
00:39:41not only did his
00:39:42wind attribute
00:39:43magic surge instantly
00:39:44but his height
00:39:45even seemed
00:39:46to increase
00:39:47slightly
00:39:47the three-year-old
00:39:49toddler excitedly
00:39:50brashed at his magic
00:39:51in the hall
00:39:51while Ronan and Vanessa
00:39:53surrounded him
00:39:53letting out waves
00:39:55of absolute delight
00:39:57the happier
00:39:58their laughter
00:39:58the more shattered
00:40:00my heart became
00:40:00Ronan looked down
00:40:01upon me as I lay
00:40:02limp on the ground
00:40:03his cold words
00:40:04cutting like blades
00:40:06Seraphina
00:40:07cease your weeping here
00:40:09Jasper
00:40:10is the future hope
00:40:11of the kingdom

00:40:13to him ensures
00:40:14it is put to its
00:40:15proper use
00:40:16as for Iris
00:40:18it has been said
00:40:19she merely has
00:40:20a common chill
00:40:22it is not worth
00:40:23delaying proper
00:40:24business over her
00:40:25and she certainly
00:40:26does not deserve
00:40:27a divine object
00:40:28like the sacred
00:40:28tree extract
00:40:29flicking his sleeves
00:40:31Ronan turned
00:40:32and left heartlessly
00:40:33taking the room's
00:40:34laughter with him
00:40:35when they departed
00:40:36entirely
00:40:37the tower plunged
00:40:38back into a
00:40:39deathly silence
00:40:40I crawled to the bedside
00:40:42looking at my
00:40:43empty hands
00:40:44and then at my
00:40:45daughter
00:40:46whose core was
00:40:47withering
00:40:47as she spit out
00:40:48another mouthful
00:40:49of black blood
00:40:50from the poison
00:40:51gripping her heart
00:40:51my daughter
00:40:52opened her eyes
00:40:53weakly
00:40:53rubbing against my
00:40:54palm with a touch
00:40:55of attachment
00:40:55before sinking
00:40:56entirely into
00:40:57a deathly coldness
00:40:58slowly raising
00:41:00my right hand
00:41:01I spared no cost
00:41:03to force out
00:41:03the final drop
00:41:04of supreme golden
00:41:06blood from my heart
00:41:07drawing a sacred

00:41:09armor in the void
00:41:10through the array

00:41:14to the deepest
00:41:15depths of the
00:41:15sanctuary
00:41:16unleashing a

00:43:18inside the
00:43:19magnificent main
00:43:20hall
00:43:20the aroma of
00:43:21fine wine
00:43:22filled the air
00:43:23as countless
00:43:23high-tier elves
00:43:24raised their glasses
00:43:25in unison
00:43:26surrounding
00:43:26Vanessa and her
00:43:27son at the
00:43:28center
00:43:28with absolute
00:43:29flattery
00:43:29and obdaciousness
00:43:31Ronan sat
00:43:32upon his throne
00:43:32looking at his
00:43:34triumphant eldest son
00:43:35his eyes filled
00:43:37with pride
00:43:38and certainty
00:43:39that the kingdom
00:43:40was about to ascend
00:43:41to the peak
00:43:42of all kingdoms
00:43:43the hypocritical
00:43:45and fanatical
00:43:46cheers echoed
00:43:47through the night sky
00:43:48transforming the
00:43:49entire temple
00:43:50into a city
00:43:51that never slept
00:43:53yet no one noticed
00:43:54that on the desolate path
00:43:55at the outmost edge
00:43:57of the main city
00:43:58leading towards
00:43:58the forbidden forest
00:43:59a slender and
00:44:00resolute figure
00:44:01was carrying a
00:44:02swaddling cloth
00:44:03stepping into
00:44:04the boundless
00:44:04curtain of night
00:44:05the freezing rain
00:44:06slammed down
00:44:06merseusely
00:44:07Serafina's face
00:44:08was deathly still
00:44:09but her hands
00:44:10held the daughter
00:44:10in her arms
00:44:11with absolute
00:44:11tightness
00:44:12Iris's breathing
00:44:13within the cloth
00:44:14was faint
00:44:14her tiny body
00:44:15gradually turning
00:44:16stirby and cold
00:44:17Serafina did not
00:44:18cast a single glance
00:44:19back at the false
00:44:20prosperity of the
00:44:20wind kingdom
00:44:21behind her
00:44:21her eyes held
00:44:23no more tears
00:44:23only an indifference
00:44:24that chilled
00:44:25to the bone
00:44:26the singing and dancing
00:44:28inside the main hall
00:44:28continued
00:44:29and Ronan was smiling
00:44:30as he accepted
00:44:31the fine wine
00:44:31handed to him
00:44:32by Vanessa
00:44:32at that exact instant
00:44:34deep within the dark
00:44:35forest far away
00:44:35the violent cold wind
00:44:37came to an abrupt
00:44:37halt without warning
00:44:38a sliver of incredibly
00:44:39noble
00:44:39sacred and tore
00:44:40through the darkness
00:44:41of the polar night
00:44:42the frame foes
00:44:43at the edge
00:44:43of the dark
00:44:44silent forest
00:44:45the sounds of
00:44:45the wind kingdom
00:44:46celebratory songs
00:44:47and laughed
00:44:47still echoed faintly
00:44:48but the moment
00:44:49the mother and girl's
00:44:50slender yet matchlessly
00:44:51noble fears
00:44:52that sliver of golden light
00:44:53they instantly transformed
00:44:54into a remnant gleam
00:44:55vanishing completely
00:44:57into the endless night
00:44:59the sacred light
00:45:00erupted outward
00:45:01at the center
00:45:02of the royal hall
00:45:03in the supreme sanctuary
00:45:04holding my daughter
00:45:05who had practically
00:45:06stopped breathing
00:45:07I finally collapsed
00:45:09onto my knees
00:45:09against the flawless
00:45:10white jade floor tiles
00:45:11my strength
00:45:12entirely spent
00:45:13my long hair
00:45:14was soaked through
00:45:15by the torricious rain
00:45:16sticking messily
00:45:16to my deathly pale cheeks
00:45:17the weakness
00:45:18of postparting recovery
00:45:19comboldened with the trauma
00:45:20of forcibly reversing
00:45:21my source power
00:45:21caused me to leave
00:45:22a striking trail of blood
00:45:24with every step
00:45:24sitting high upon his throne
00:45:26my father rose abruptly
00:45:27when he clearly saw
00:45:28my broken state
00:45:29at the bottom of the steps
00:45:30his majestic noble face
00:45:31which had ten thousand
00:45:32years of history
00:45:33trembled violently
00:45:34with immense shock
00:45:35and heartache
00:45:35moving like a blur
00:45:37he materialized by my side
00:45:39in an instant
00:45:39his hands shaking
00:45:41as he tried to lift me up
00:45:43my daughter
00:45:44how did you become like this
00:45:48your supreme magic
00:45:49which even ten thousand
00:45:50kingdoms look up to
00:45:52why has it withered
00:45:53to such an extent
00:45:56I slowly raised my head
00:45:57the tears of blood
00:45:58at the corners of my eye
00:45:59long since dried
00:46:00I did not cry out
00:46:01I merely used the final
00:46:02shred of strength
00:46:03in my body
00:46:04to tremblingly present
00:46:04the swaddling cloth
00:46:05to my father
00:46:06father
00:46:07save her
00:46:08she is ronin's biological
00:46:09flesh and blood
00:46:10yet they dismissed her
00:46:12as a lowerly wretch
00:46:12to steal her
00:46:13life-saving medicine
00:46:14they fed my iris
00:46:15forbidden illusion potions
00:46:17to forcibly mask the truth
00:46:18she has been poisoned
00:46:19with soul-eating grass
00:46:20and her magic core
00:46:22is on the verge of shattering
00:46:23my father took the tiny
00:46:24swaddling cloth
00:46:25with trembling hands
00:46:26when his divine sense
00:46:28swept across his granddaughter's
00:46:29battered natural core
00:46:30which was being ravenously
00:46:31consumed by the poison
00:46:32this supreme gaiety
00:46:34who ruled over
00:46:35the entire sanctuary
00:46:36felt his eyes turn
00:46:37instantly bloodluck
00:46:38immediately following
00:46:39a terrifying
00:46:40world-destroying pressure
00:46:43erupted violently
00:46:44from his body
00:46:47in an instant
00:46:48the skies above
00:46:50the entire supreme sanctuary
00:46:51shifted dramatically
00:46:52as the once bright heavens
00:46:53were enveloped
00:46:53by rolling black clouds
00:46:54and violent thunderbolts
00:46:55the ancient vines
00:46:56surrounding the royal hall
00:46:57which had flourished
00:46:58for tens of thousands of years
00:47:00seemed to feel
00:47:00the king's ultimate fury
00:47:02trembling wildly
00:47:03and thrashing against the ground
00:47:04as the entire sacred mountain
00:47:06shook violently
00:47:07under the divine rage
00:47:08my father raised
00:47:09his right hand high
00:47:10the destructive divine lightning
00:47:11flashing frankly
00:47:12at his fingertips
00:47:13he stared dead
00:47:14at his dying granddaughter
00:47:15within the cloth
00:47:16his gnashing words
00:47:17wrapped in supreme divine authority
00:47:18as they echoed
00:47:20through heaven and earth
00:47:20the wind kingdom
00:47:22Ronan
00:47:23you ants dare to torture
00:47:24my only daughter
00:47:25in such a manner
00:47:26and strike ruthlessly
00:47:27against my newborn granddaughter
00:47:29pass down my dissension pathways
00:47:31the wind kingdom
00:47:31whosoever dares harm my glorish
00:47:33i shall demand their entire kingdom
00:47:35accompany her in death
00:47:37to rescue iris from the brink of death
00:47:40my father did not hesitate for a moment
00:47:42immediately ordering the opening
00:47:44of the life core
00:47:44of the ancient sacred tree
00:47:46that had lived for 100,000 years
00:47:48within the forbidden grounds
00:47:49this was the energy source
00:47:51of the entire elfin world
00:47:53a place where even the high priests
00:47:55of the sanctuary
00:47:56had no right to approach normally
00:47:58yet it was fully open today
00:48:00for my daughter
00:48:01every top holy tier healer
00:48:04within the sanctuary
00:48:05was assembled overnight
00:48:11the golden life core
00:48:13floated gently above the sickbed
00:48:14radiating a soft
00:48:15vast and ocean-like purity
00:48:17of magic
00:48:17a canopy of brilliant golden light
00:48:19wrapped around iris's tiny body
00:48:20layer by layer
00:48:21like a coon
00:48:22nourished by this immense life force
00:48:24the faint golden divine mark
00:48:26on iris's forehead
00:48:27which had been nearly cracked
00:48:28and extinguished
00:48:29finally flickered
00:48:31with a weak resonance
00:48:32under the caress
00:48:33of the divine light
00:48:34I kept watch by the bedside
00:48:35my face pale
00:48:37never leaving her side
00:48:39for a single pace
00:48:40I watched with my own eyes
00:48:42as those holy gris healers
00:48:43transformed secret medicines
00:48:44into golden needles
00:48:45extracting the stubborn
00:48:46soul-eating grease poison
00:48:48from my daughter's body
00:48:49inch by inch
00:48:50every time that the poison
00:48:52was forced out
00:48:52my daughter would let out
00:48:54faint kitten-like whipper of pain
00:48:55and those drops of black toxic blood
00:48:58would instantly corrode
00:48:59scorched hole
00:49:00into the pure white sheets
00:49:01upon hitting them
00:49:02my daughter
00:49:03watching her suffer
00:49:05tore at my heart
00:49:06as if it were being cut
00:49:07by ten thousand blades
00:49:08Ronan
00:49:09Vanessa
00:49:10the pain you inflicted
00:49:11upon my child
00:49:12I will ensure you
00:49:13repay it a thousand times
00:49:14it was a grueling
00:49:15two days and nights
00:49:17of hovering between
00:49:18life and death
00:49:21as the first ray
00:49:22of the sanctuary's
00:49:23warm morning sun
00:49:24pierced through the window frame
00:49:25on the third day
00:49:26Iris suddenly let out
00:49:28a resounding cry
00:49:29from the bed
00:49:30that cry was no longer weak
00:49:32and filled with despair
00:49:33like before
00:49:34but brimming with the strength
00:49:35of a new life
00:49:36the golden divine mark
00:49:37on her forehead
00:49:38restored completely
00:49:39and her once pale little face
00:49:41began to flush with color
00:49:42her skin radiating
00:49:44a healthy glow
00:49:45congratulations king
00:49:46congratulations holy princess
00:49:48the virilest poison
00:49:49within the little princess's body
00:49:50has completely dissolved
00:49:51not only is her life secured
00:49:53but her bloodline
00:49:53has completely awa-
00:49:54looking at my daughter's face
00:49:55as she clenched her tiny fists
00:49:57in blue bubbles
00:49:57the tears I had suppressed
00:49:59for three long years
00:50:00finally broke through
00:50:01the floodgates
00:50:03the morning sun
00:50:04spilled across
00:50:05the luxurious couch
00:50:06Vanessa was gently
00:50:07helping Ronan
00:50:07into his robes
00:50:08however Ronan's brow
00:50:09was furrowed tightly
00:50:10his handsome face clouded
00:50:12with undeniable
00:50:12irritation and gloom
00:50:14right then
00:50:14a panic-starting bell
00:50:15rang out from outside
00:50:16the main temple
00:50:17several elders
00:50:17scrambled into the hall
00:50:18their faces as white as sheets
00:50:20lord disaster has struck
00:50:21the soldiers guarding
00:50:22the ascension platform
00:50:23just reported
00:50:24that our kingdom's passage
00:50:25to the sanctuary
00:50:26has been violently locked
00:50:27from above
00:50:28by an unspeakable
00:50:29supreme divine authority
00:50:30the gates of the divine realm
00:50:33are closed to us
00:50:36what did you say
00:50:38the passage is locked
00:50:41who could possibly have
00:50:43such power
00:50:44in that instant
00:50:45the image of Serafina's
00:50:47cold ruthless phantom
00:50:48before her departure
00:50:49flashed through his mind
00:50:50and his heart sank
00:50:52could it be
00:50:53Serafina?
00:50:54but the moment
00:50:55the thought arose
00:50:56it was instantly crushed
00:50:57by the deep-rooted arrogance
00:50:58in his heart
00:50:59he let out a cold
00:51:00self-decricketing laugh
00:51:02Serafina was nothing more
00:51:03than a lowly woman
00:51:04with no background
00:51:05inferior even to
00:51:06a low-tier elf
00:51:07of the Wintuary
00:51:08that happened to affect
00:51:09their kingdom
00:51:11seeing his distress
00:51:12Vanessa quickly
00:51:13moved closer
00:51:14wrapping her arms
00:51:16around his
00:51:17to comfort him
00:51:18teasingly
00:51:19exactly lord
00:51:21sister ran away
00:51:22in a tantrum
00:51:23and is probably
00:51:23hiding in some inn
00:51:25using that sickly brat
00:51:26to threaten you
00:51:27until you soften
00:51:28how could she possibly
00:51:29have the power
00:51:30to lock the ascension platform?
00:51:33Ronan pressed
00:51:34his throbbing temples
00:51:35a strange sensation
00:51:37of losing his kingdom's fortune
00:51:39made him increasingly restless
00:51:40pushing Vanessa away
00:51:42he strode toward
00:51:43the covenant temple
00:51:44with a dark expression
00:51:47however
00:51:47the moment Ronan
00:51:49stepped into the covenant temple
00:51:50the priest on duty
00:51:51collapsed to the floor
00:51:52in sheer terror
00:51:53his face deathly pale
00:51:54what are you panicking for?
00:51:56bring out the covenant
00:51:56jade plaques for
00:51:57Serafina and the infant
00:51:58I want to see where
00:51:59they are hiding
00:52:00and laughing at me
00:52:01my lord
00:52:02spare my life
00:52:03they cannot be brought out
00:52:05just three days ago
00:52:07the primary mistress
00:52:08covenant mark
00:52:09under the tree of life
00:52:10was forcibly erased
00:52:12what did you say?
00:52:14forcibly erased?
00:52:16not only is it gone
00:52:17but the mother and daughter
00:52:18used an ancient secret ritual
00:52:20to completely delete
00:52:21all their holy names
00:52:22from the elfin race
00:52:23half of the tree of life
00:52:24has withered
00:52:25I used every tracking method
00:52:26available
00:52:27but they are all
00:52:28untraceable
00:52:29they have completely
00:52:30severed their bloodline
00:52:31and connection
00:52:32with the wind kingdom
00:52:33well played Serafina
00:52:34to resort to such a
00:52:36self-harming
00:52:37despicable trick
00:52:38as deleting your holy name
00:52:40do you think you can escape
00:52:41just by doing that?
00:52:43I want to see how many days
00:52:44you can last out there
00:52:46with your dying daughter
00:52:47without the protection
00:52:48of the wind kingdom
00:52:50watching her daughter
00:52:52sleep peacefully
00:52:52in the divine light
00:52:53of the sacred tree
00:52:55Serafina slowly stood up
00:52:57the mole the tender
00:52:58she turned to
00:52:59vanished from her eyes
00:53:00replaced by a bottomless
00:53:01coldness and resolve
00:53:03father I was too foolish
00:53:04in the past
00:53:05to repay a trivial
00:53:06mortal deed
00:53:07I degraded myself
00:53:08to cater to a blind
00:53:09cold-blooded mortal
00:53:11in return they trampled
00:53:12all over me
00:53:13and nearly caused
00:53:14my daughter's death
00:53:15she raised her hand
00:53:16slicing through the air
00:53:17like a blade
00:53:18as an invisible
00:53:19emotional barrier
00:53:20shattered
00:53:21the painful memories
00:53:22of her humiliation
00:53:23Ronin's neglect
00:53:25and Vanessa's framing
00:53:26in the wind kingdom
00:53:27were sealed
00:53:28deep within her heart
00:53:29from this day forward
00:53:30the lowly
00:53:31submissive consort
00:53:32of the wind kingdom
00:53:33no longer exists
00:53:34to ensure we are
00:53:35never trampled on again
00:53:36and to control
00:53:37my daughter's destiny
00:53:38I willingly accept
00:53:39the royal bloodline baptism
00:53:41looking at his daughter
00:53:42whose gaze had become
00:53:43as sharp as a hawk
00:53:44the high elvel king
00:53:45felt a surge of relief
00:53:46and pride
00:53:46he immediately gave
00:53:47his stern approval
00:53:48half an hour later
00:53:49the gates to the sanctuary's
00:53:50core forbidden ground
00:53:51swung open
00:53:52this was the sacred
00:53:52training pool exclusive
00:53:53to the heirs of the
00:53:54supreme royal family
00:53:55filled with primeval
00:53:56priadan magic
00:53:57accumulated over
00:53:5710,000 years
00:53:58and to an ordinary
00:53:59high elf would explode
00:54:00and die from touching
00:54:01even a single drop
00:54:02and to enduring
00:54:03the agonizing pain
00:54:04of a complete bone-shatterned
00:54:05without any hesitation
00:54:07under the avarstek gaze
00:54:08of 10,000 pure-blooded
00:54:10elven guards
00:54:10seraphina stepped
00:54:11relutely into the
00:54:12terrifying surging
00:54:13sacred pool
00:54:14clad in a simple
00:54:15white robe
00:54:15boom
00:54:16the moment her body
00:54:17was completely submerged
00:54:18the ancient magic
00:54:19erupted
00:54:19unleashing towering
00:54:21golden waves
00:54:21the violent
00:54:22propezzanard energy
00:54:23slashed through her
00:54:23merpicrians and bones
00:54:24like countless blades
00:54:25yet she did not
00:54:26even flinch
00:54:27the nine sore seals
00:54:28she had petitioned
00:54:28herself to repay
00:54:29her debt to ronian
00:54:30began to shatter
00:54:30and unravel
00:54:31completely awakening
00:54:32her deadormant power
00:54:33under the furious onslaught
00:54:34smash
00:54:35ronan shattered
00:54:37his communication array
00:54:38for the 12th time
00:54:39every time he tried
00:54:40to connect with seraphina
00:54:41through a soul transmission
00:54:43he was met with
00:54:44nothing but a cold
00:54:44empty echo
00:54:45and the piercing pain
00:54:47of magical backlash
00:54:48his frustration
00:54:49reached its peep
00:54:50as a suffocating panic
00:54:51of losing control
00:54:52gripped his throat
00:54:53just then
00:54:54the hall doors
00:54:55pushed open
00:54:56and vanessa
00:54:56walked in smiling
00:54:57holding three-year-old
00:54:59jasphid by the hand
00:55:12ronan turned his
00:55:13irritated gaze
00:55:14onto jasper
00:55:15who was shouting
00:55:15and playing with a toy
00:55:17but as he looked
00:55:18his breath caught
00:55:19whether it was due
00:55:20to the sudden loss
00:55:20of his kingdom's fortune
00:55:22looking at jasper's
00:55:23arrogant and brash face
00:55:24felt unprecedentedly
00:55:26discordal
00:55:26the child's features
00:55:27lacked even a trace
00:55:28of the wind kingdom
00:55:29royal family's elegance
00:55:30showing instead
00:55:31a crude vulgarity
00:55:32what terrified him most
00:55:34was that the wind
00:55:34attributed magic
00:55:35radiating from jasper
00:55:36was cross and wild
00:55:37sharing absolutely
00:55:39no bloodline resonance
00:55:40with the pure
00:55:41biting royal bloodline
00:55:42in his own body
00:55:43when vanessa gave birth
00:55:45to the child
00:55:45outside years ago
00:55:46crying that she had
00:55:48been hunted by enemies
00:55:49and forced to wander
00:55:50ronan pitied her
00:55:52and never questioned
00:55:53the bloodline
00:55:53but now
00:55:58ronan
00:55:58why are you looking
00:56:00at jasper like that
00:56:02did he do something wrong
00:56:04rokon stared dead
00:56:05at the flash of panic
00:56:06in vanessa's eyes
00:56:07his hands clenched
00:56:08tightly beneath his robes
00:56:09as something shattered
00:56:10within his heart
00:56:11taking a deep breath
00:56:12to suppress his immense
00:56:13suspicion
00:56:13he put on a cold disguise
00:56:15it is nothing
00:56:16i am simply tired
00:56:18you may leave
00:56:19the moment the doors closed
00:56:21ronan's eyes turned
00:56:22incredibly sinister
00:56:23he looked toward
00:56:24the empty air
00:56:24and gave a ruthless command
00:56:26someone
00:56:26bring out the royal family's
00:56:28most secretive bloodline
00:56:29apriation arabis
00:56:30remember
00:56:30prepare it in secret
00:56:32find an opportunity
00:56:33to gather jasper's hair
00:56:35and finger blood
00:56:36later
00:56:36vanessa must not know
00:56:38a single thing about this
00:56:39if i find
00:56:40that his bloodline
00:56:41does not match
00:56:42i will ensure them
00:56:43die without a burial place
00:56:46meanwhile in the sanctuary
00:56:48around the forbidden
00:56:49sacred pool grounds
00:56:50ten thousand pureblood
00:56:51high elven generals
00:56:52high priests
00:56:53and gradually cards
00:56:54of the divine king
00:56:54knelt across the mountains
00:56:55everyone held their breath
00:56:56looking up at the
00:56:57gradually calming
00:56:58sacred pool in awe
00:56:59suddenly faint golden
00:57:00ripple carrying supreme
00:57:01azority spread from
00:57:02the center of the pool
00:57:03a graceful noble figure
00:57:05slowly rose from the
00:57:06center of the water
00:57:07seraphina's postpartum
00:57:08weakness and plast
00:57:09were entirely gone
00:57:10her skin shone like
00:57:11flawless white jade
00:57:12flowing with a sacred
00:57:13light
00:57:13and her once withered long
00:57:15hair turned into a
00:57:16dazzling golden color
00:57:17skating down to her ankles
00:57:18under the baptism of the
00:57:19ancient presided energy
00:57:20her appearance and magic
00:57:22were completely restored
00:57:23far surpassing her past
00:57:25peak
00:57:25the moment her feet
00:57:26left the water
00:57:27and she hovered in midair
00:57:28the space behind her
00:57:29tore violently
00:57:30boom
00:57:31accompanied by a divine
00:57:32phoenix cry that
00:57:33echoed through the heavens
00:57:34a pair of dazzling
00:57:35supreme natural wings
00:57:36radiating boundless life
00:57:37and destruction
00:57:38unfurled behind her back
00:57:39the divine wings were
00:57:40massive
00:57:40each feather condundated
00:57:41from the purest golden
00:57:43light of natural law
00:57:44with a slight flutter
00:57:45a terrifying pressure
00:57:46swept past like a tsunami
00:57:47unable to withstand
00:57:48the bloodline pressure
00:57:49from the depths of their souls
00:57:51the ten thousand
00:57:52pure-blooded elves
00:57:53slammed their foreheads
00:57:54against the ground
00:57:55as the sacred roof
00:57:56and echoed in harmony
00:57:57we welcome her majesty's
00:57:59ascension to the throne
00:58:07standing amid the golden light
00:58:09seraphana looked down
00:58:10at her subjects
00:58:10she raised her hand
00:58:12slightly
00:58:12feeling the terrifying magic
00:58:13capable of destroying
00:58:14heaven and earth
00:58:15a cruel cold smile
00:58:16playing on her lips
00:58:17the submissive lowly consort
00:58:18who had once begged
00:58:19for a flask of pure spring water
00:58:20for her daughter
00:58:21in the withern tower
00:58:21had completely died
00:58:22in this sacred pool today
00:58:24the one who lived now
00:58:25was the supreme empress
00:58:26who held the power
00:58:28over life and death
00:58:29for the entire elven sanctuary
00:58:31she turned her gaze
00:58:32towards the direction
00:58:33of the wind kingdom
00:58:34her murderous intent
00:58:36radiating palpably
00:58:39since seraphina's departure
00:58:40vanessa carried herself
00:58:41completely as the new
00:58:43mistress of the wind kingdom
00:58:44without the restraint
00:58:45of the legitimate
00:58:46primary mistress
00:58:47she tore off
00:58:47her past gentle disguise
00:58:49the first thing she did
00:58:50upon moving
00:58:50is replace all the decorations
00:58:51with the most luxurious
00:58:53gold silks
00:58:53she lived extravagantly
00:58:55and wastefully
00:58:56bathing in the rarest
00:58:57floral dew daily
00:58:58and even forcibly
00:58:59withalding nearly half
00:59:00of the lower tier
00:59:01elf's winter ravines
00:59:02just to fashion
00:59:02a sweeping dress
00:59:03embedded with deep sea
00:59:04magic krills
00:59:05furthermore vanessa was arrogant
00:59:07and harsh to the point
00:59:07of cruelty
00:59:08toward the servants
00:59:09and lower class elves
00:59:10of the kingdom
00:59:11mistress this is the
00:59:12silver needle tea
00:59:12you requested
00:59:13the temperature is just right
00:59:15it's scolding you
00:59:16useless wretch
00:59:17are you trying to ruin
00:59:18my face on purpose
00:59:19someone strip her
00:59:20of her elfin badge
00:59:21and banish her entire family
00:59:23to hard labor
00:59:23at the wither tower
00:59:25panic gripped the main manor
00:59:27and the lower tier elves
00:59:28filled the air with grievances
00:59:29sitting in his study
00:59:30ronin listened to the
00:59:31constant shouting
00:59:32face slapping
00:59:32and crying from outside
00:59:33his temples throbbing
00:59:34looking at the ledger
00:59:35submitted by the council
00:59:37of elders
00:59:37which detailed vanessa's
00:59:39waste of tens of thousands
00:59:40of magic crystals
00:59:40over the past few days
00:59:41his face turned grim
00:59:42in the past
00:59:43when seraphina managed
00:59:44the household
00:59:45the entire wind kingdom
00:59:46was orderly
00:59:46she was always gentle
00:59:47understanding and proper
00:59:49choosing to live frugally
00:59:50rather than misappropriate
00:59:51a single penny
00:59:52from the kingdom
00:59:52even using her own source
00:59:54morna to nourish
00:59:54injured low tier soldiers
00:59:56roman instinctively
00:59:57touched the empty space
00:59:58beside his throne
00:59:59an unprecedented emptiness
01:00:00and regret
01:00:01washing over him
01:00:01like a tidal wave
01:00:02he began to desperately
01:00:04miss the woman
01:00:05who had always
01:00:05quietly waited for him
01:00:06but now
01:00:07no matter how much
01:00:08he searched
01:00:09the wind kingdom's territory
01:00:10he could no longer
01:00:11find a single trace
01:00:12of seraphina
01:00:15yet ronin had no idea
01:00:16that while he was
01:00:17drowning in endless
01:00:17regret and agony
01:00:18a dim storle lamp
01:00:19was burning in the
01:00:20most secluded
01:00:20subterranean chamber
01:00:21of the main manor
01:00:22dressed in her luxurious gown
01:00:23vanessa showed none
01:00:24of her usual arrogance
01:00:25slumping limply
01:00:26into the embrace
01:00:27of her old lover
01:00:27oswin
01:00:28the chief captain
01:00:29of the guards
01:00:29oswin's rough
01:00:30calloused hands
01:00:31gripped her slender
01:00:31waist tightly
01:00:32as their breaths
01:00:33mingled in a display
01:00:34of immacity
01:00:34and wanton behavior
01:00:35that suspicious

01:01:15vanessa's beautiful eyes
01:01:16flashed with a venomous light
01:01:17as she laughed
01:01:18and pinched the man
01:01:19who told ronin
01:01:20to pride himself
01:01:21on being deeply affectionate
01:01:22when he is actually
01:01:23a fool
01:01:23who is easily deceived
01:01:25for three years
01:01:26he trampled seraphina
01:01:27the legitimate mistress

01:01:38and vicious
01:01:39ronin is completely
01:01:40distracted every day
01:01:41because of seraph's
01:01:41disappears
01:01:42and the kingdom's fortune
01:01:43has mostly vanished
01:01:44for some reason

01:01:45is even closed
01:01:46in just a few more days
01:01:48we will deliver
01:01:49the fatal blow
01:01:52the inner frustration
01:01:53and the mysterious loss
01:01:54of his kingdom's fortune
01:01:55drove him near madness
01:01:56his mind troubled
01:01:57he walked aimlessly
01:01:59through the streets
01:01:59of the main city
01:02:00and inadvertently stopped
01:02:01in front of the infirmary
01:02:02looking at the somewhat
01:02:04dilapidated doors
01:02:05the image of seraphina
01:02:06weeping in absolute despair
01:02:08here suddenly flashed
01:02:09through his mind
01:02:10I must be losing my mind
01:02:11to have walked
01:02:12all the way here
01:02:12just as he turned
01:02:13to leave
01:02:13a stealthy figure
01:02:14carrying a bundle
01:02:15prepared to flee
01:02:16from inside the infirmary
01:02:17it was the doctor
01:02:18from before
01:02:18ever since seraphina
01:02:19umister raised
01:02:20her holy name
01:02:20and left
01:02:20causing half of the
01:02:21tree of life to wither
01:02:22this doctor had been
01:02:23tormented night and day
01:02:24by guilt and fear
01:02:25finally breaking down
01:02:26and preparing to escape
01:02:26overnight
01:02:27ronin's eyes turned sharp
01:02:28moving like lightning
01:02:29he materialized
01:02:30before the doctor
01:02:31blocking his path
01:02:32where do you think
01:02:33you are running
01:02:34what are you panicking
01:02:35for upon seeing me
01:02:37looking at ronin's
01:02:38rage distorted face
01:02:39and thinking of the rampant
01:02:40rumors about the
01:02:40primary mistress
01:02:41his disappearance
01:02:41and the sacred trees
01:02:42withering
01:02:42the doctor's
01:02:43psychological defense
01:02:44collapsed completely
01:02:44with even needing to
01:02:45use a soul-searching
01:02:46technique
01:02:46he fell to his knees
01:02:47in terror
01:02:48now coating frantically
01:02:49as tears and muses
01:02:49strem down his face

01:02:57for effect
01:02:57ronin's heart skipped
01:02:58a beat
01:02:59a profound sense
01:03:00of foreboding

01:03:13and her core had
01:03:13already begun to wither
01:03:15boom the doctor's
01:03:15words exploded in
01:03:16ronin's ears
01:03:17like a thunder mist
01:03:17leaving his pail
01:03:18and make him sway
01:03:19on his feet

01:03:21terrified fleeing
01:03:22doctor by the collar

01:04:18his face draining
01:04:20of all color
01:04:20that spiritual medicine
01:04:21was given to the
01:04:22primary mistress
01:04:23out of my sudden
01:04:23flash of consciousness
01:04:24it was not only an
01:04:25antidote to all
01:04:26poisons but the
01:04:27sole hope to save
01:04:27the little princess's
01:04:28life
01:04:28yet you
01:04:29you detested the
01:04:30primary mistress

01:04:33to secure the position
01:04:34of the perfectly
01:04:35healthy jasper
01:04:36roman felt as if he'd
01:04:38been struck by
01:04:38lightning all strength
01:04:40instantly draining from
01:04:41his body boundless
01:04:42darkness and immense
01:04:43regret swallowed him
01:04:44like a tsunami he
01:04:45finally realized that
01:04:46seraphina had been
01:04:47telling the truth all
01:04:48along it was him he
01:04:50the father blinded by
01:04:52favoritism and interest
01:04:53who had personally
01:04:55snatched away his
01:04:56daughter's life-saving
01:04:57straw pushing his
01:04:58newborn child into the
01:05:00abyss of death a spray
01:05:02of crimson blood erupted
01:05:04from ronin's mouth as he
01:05:05collapsed onto his knees
01:05:07on the freezing stone
01:05:08pavement clutching his
01:05:09agonizingly painful chest
01:05:11letting out a desperate
01:05:12piercing streel
01:05:16seraphina iris what have
01:05:19i done what on earth
01:05:20have i done immense regret
01:05:22drove ronin completely
01:05:23mad disregarding the
01:05:24blood on his lips he
01:05:25scrammed back to his feet
01:05:26and ran back to the main
01:05:27hall like a madman at
01:05:29this moment he no longer
01:05:31cared about supreme
01:05:32cooperation or reaching
01:05:33the peak he only wanted
01:05:35to find his wife and save
01:05:37his daughter's life search
01:05:39mobilize all forces of
01:05:41the wind kingdom search

01:05:45forest bring back the
01:05:46primary mistress and the
01:05:47princess go now
01:05:53however one day passed
01:05:55then two days and for
01:05:57three whole days and
01:05:58nights the elite high
01:05:59elves brought back nothing
01:06:00but the desperate news of no
01:06:02trace found seraphina seemed
01:06:04to have dissolved into the
01:06:05wind vanishing completely
01:06:06without a trace failing to
01:06:08find his wife ronin's grief
01:06:10and self-blame gradually
01:06:11transformed into a towering
01:06:12merlison test he finally
01:06:14thought of the instigator
01:06:15vanessa vanessa vanessa you
01:06:18vicious wretch i will tear you
01:06:20into ten thousand pieces
01:06:21gripping the great sword of the
01:06:23wind god that symbolized his
01:06:24kingdom's power he strode toward
01:06:26vanessa's bedchamber brimming
01:06:28with murderous intent he wanted
01:06:30to settle the score with that evil
01:06:31woman and use the blood of
01:06:33vanessa and her son to atone for
01:06:34his actions against his wife and
01:06:36daughter however when he reached
01:06:39the chamber he found it
01:06:40completely empty unleashing his
01:06:42divine sense he followed a faint
01:06:44trace of magic straight into the
01:06:47desolate forest behind the temple
01:06:49the moon was dark and the wind
01:06:51howled through the silence of the
01:06:52desolate forest behind the temple
01:06:53ronin concealed his presence
01:06:54moving step by step into the
01:06:56shadow of the ancient trees with
01:06:57his great sword but before he
01:06:58could see clearly faint whispers
01:07:00and strugglings came from the
01:07:01thicket falling clearly into his
01:07:02ears slow down if that fool ronin
01:07:04finds out we are dead what are you
01:07:06afraid of he is completely
01:07:08distracted every day because of

01:07:11have time for us i've already
01:07:12coordinated with governor gamma
01:07:14while he will strip the treasury of
01:07:15all magic crystals and public funds
01:07:17tonight and run boom ronin's mind
01:07:19went completely blank he knew these
01:07:20voices all too well one belonged to
01:07:22his chief captain of the guards
01:07:22oswin and the other belonged to
01:07:24vanessa white moonlight first love he
01:07:25had cherished for three years
01:07:26ronin trembled violently staring dead
01:07:27at the disheveled man and woman in
01:07:29twilight behind the tree
01:07:30speaking of which ronin really is an
01:07:32absolute fool for the past three days
01:07:34he has been holding that fake
01:07:35bloodline report comforting himself
01:07:36that jasper is his child
01:07:37completely unaware that the heir he
01:07:39raised with the kingdom's sacred
01:07:40medicine is actually your biological
01:07:42flesh and blood
01:07:43the truth slapped ronin across the face
01:07:45shattering his remaining self-respect
01:07:47and pride it turned out he was not
01:07:49only the murderer who had personally
01:07:50pushed his biological daughter to her
01:07:51death but also the world's biggest
01:07:52fool who had raised a bastard child for

01:08:06trees and the century green people
01:08:08flying oswin and vanessa screamed as
01:08:10they hit the ground when vanessa saw

01:08:13ferocity she lost her wits and terror

01:08:26lax limit at the magic though this

01:08:29and pringzled several poisonous smoke
01:08:30bombs with a loud explosion a toxic mist
01:08:33filled the area by the time the storm
01:08:34blew the mist away the disheveled couple
01:08:36had all flooded the wind forest using
01:08:38their familiarity with the ground as the
01:08:39cold wind blew he looked around at the
01:08:41empty surroundings appearing as though he
01:08:43had aged a hundred years ronin fell to
01:08:45his knees his fingers digging into the
01:08:48dirt as he wept desperately like a
01:08:51beaten dog in the dead of night
01:08:54meanwhile inside the flawless radiant
01:08:57temple of life in the supreme
01:08:58sanctuary iris had completely recovered
01:09:00she was now dressed in garments woven
01:09:02from the rarest golden silk and sitting
01:09:04in a cradle carved from ten thousand
01:09:06year old moonwa jiggling and blowing
01:09:07bubbles the supreme divine mark on her
01:09:09forehead flowed with brilliant colors
01:09:10exuding an incredibly noble bloodline
01:09:13standing beside the cradle
01:09:14seraphina gently played with her
01:09:16daughter her eyes filled only with
01:09:18maternal love as for the past
01:09:20humiliations and affection the high
01:09:21elfin king slowly walked over to his
01:09:23daughter looking at his reborn
01:09:25granddaughter with affection he then
01:09:26turned a serious gaze towards

01:09:44hand and turned to face her father her
01:09:46gaze calm and instaurative completely
01:09:48to blind of mortal weakness father i

01:10:17far at the edge of the continent had
01:10:18fallen into a perilous situation due to
01:10:20vanessa and oswin's betrayal and thief
01:10:22of the funds a fierce internal conflict
01:10:24erupted within the kingdom worse still
01:10:26because seraphina had erased her holy name
01:10:27and severed the tree of life withered causing
01:10:29the kingdom's overall magic to rapidly
01:10:31decline and their barrier to romans sat on
01:10:33his broken throne emaciated and covered in
01:10:36stubble showing none of his past glory as a

01:12:06when they first met her tenderness when
01:12:08healing his wounds and her cold resolute
01:12:12gaze as she left the withered tower holding
01:12:15their daughter aloena walked up behind him
01:12:18wearing a cloak looking at her distracted
01:12:20son she let out a deep sigh
01:12:22roran stop thinking about it tomorrow is
01:12:24the critical day to meet the supreme
01:12:26empress the survival of our wind kingdom
01:12:28relies entirely on this single action
01:12:29you must not lose your composure rayon
01:12:32withdraw his gaze cripping his racing
01:12:33chest a bitter smile playing on his lips
01:12:36mother i was just thinking rafina was
01:12:37still here with her pure bloodline would
01:12:39she also be happy for me seeing this grand
01:12:41sight of ten thousand kingdoms paying homage
01:12:42tomorrow regrettably and no one could
01:12:44answer his belated affection and self-reflection
01:12:46on the day of the ceremony the supreme
01:12:49sanctuary shone with magnificent golden
01:12:50light piercing the sky the entire sacred
01:12:52mountain was to look invincible holy
01:12:54unicorns soared through the air as tribal
01:12:56leaders and ancient deities gather to
01:12:58elders meanwhile was missly in the most
01:13:00remote corner at the outmost edge of the
01:13:01main hall not even daring to raise their
01:13:03heads as a sacred ancient bell echoed
01:13:05through the heavens a grand and vast chant
01:13:07filled the world silence across all kingdoms
01:13:10we welcome the ascension of her majesty the
01:13:12high elfin queen a supreme throne radiating
01:13:16immense authority slowly rose from the center
01:13:18of the tree ronan and his mother eleda
01:13:20pressed their heads firmly against the
01:13:22freezing floor tiles their bodies trembling
01:13:23violently under the supreme bloodline
01:13:25pressure that descended from above
01:13:26near of a strange procession under the
01:13:28immense pressure ronan managed to raise
01:13:29his head with great difficulty wanting to
01:13:31look upon the mysterious antrus who could
01:13:33save his kingdom's life however when his
01:13:36gaze pierced through the golden light and
01:13:39clearly saw the figure sitting upon the
01:13:41supreme throne the massive natural wings
01:13:43unfurled behind her back and the daughter
01:13:46she held in her arms sucking her fing
01:13:49roman's pupils shrank violently in an instant as if struck by lightning his breath catching completely in his throat that
01:13:55face that noble cold and peerless high elven queen who ruled over the entire sanctuary was actually seraphina
01:14:06ronan's startled cry shattered the silence of the temple high priestess alonda looked up and recognized the beautiful empress radiating
01:14:13absolute authority from the altar she lives connect i was wrong i truly know i was wrong please the useless
01:14:18woman they had trampled in the withered tap
01:14:26she looked down upon him who lay like a dead dog at the bottom of the steps while iris blew
01:14:30bubbles in her arms there was no hatred in her eyes only the disgust one would feel looking at an
01:14:35open sewer
01:14:37ronan do you think you are worthy of speaking my holy name do you think you are worthy of calling
01:14:41my daughter's name
01:14:42a golden beam of law became a massive hand of divine power and struck vithi ronan across the face
01:14:46slap half of his facial bones shatter gents and this slap is for your blind side of his face and
01:14:51him comb scheming woman to true wife
01:14:53slap the harder backhand twisted your utter lack of conscience for personally stealing your biological daughter's life-saving medicine
01:15:00the leaders of the various kingdoms expressed their disdain and spit in disapproval clutching his swollen face
01:15:07self-respect was publicly trampled before all kingdoms his reputation was completely destroyed
01:15:15yes i deserve to be beaten i am a beast
01:15:18serami as long as you vent your anger you can talk to me however you like just please let me
01:15:22rest our daughter kingdom
01:15:23ronan once a proud general now knelt in the dust his pleas echoed empty and desperate
01:15:28seeing an opportunity alita cast aside all dignity and began copycating frantically
01:15:32your divine majesty for the sub the wind kingdom being of the royal family thousand years please stay your hand
01:15:37and save our withering tree of life
01:15:38looking at the mother and icon who were still calculating for benefits even now the mockery on seraphina's boobs deepened
01:15:44to the extreme
01:15:45save you the wind kingdom only enjoyed its past glory because i nourished it with my supreme source power since
01:15:50you will reclaim everything i granted you
01:15:51she slowly raised her hand curving her fingers and made a grasping motion toward ronan and alation from afar
01:15:56in an instant the ancient wind laws inside ronan and alina which had been granted by the royal family
01:16:02turned into strands of golden light and were violently stripped from their bones and souls
01:16:06my magic my cultivation
01:16:13it was a stripping process more painful than death within moments ronan's cultivation plummeted from a high tea lord to
01:16:18something inferior even to an ordinary low tier elf
01:16:20turning him into a complete and vital pass down my divine it took came from ty's but kieran of the
01:16:24ward can took quite of his lee age be reduced to sinful withered wood
01:16:26forbidden from ever entering the sanctuary someone throw this disgusting pile of garbage out a divine guard kicked
01:16:31ronan hard in the abdomen sending the two broken stripped and thoroughly disgraced wretcheds tumbling down the nine layers of
01:16:39the altar
01:16:39amid the laughter of all kingdoms
01:16:43internal conflict spread like wildfire through the wind kingdom and the anger of the lower tier elves completely overthrew the
01:16:48main manor
01:16:48meanwhile lying on a bed in a side purveal the old woman alina trembled inside the empty room she had
01:16:53previously been blinded by greed
01:16:54secrecy accepting massive amounts of illicit wealth from vanessa oswin and gamma to secure their positions
01:16:58even the forceful snatching of iris's sacred tree extract had been driven largely by her own greed
01:17:02now retribution had arrived the kingdom was ruined the treasures were lost and even the eldest grandson jasper
01:17:08whom she had cherished night and day as the future hope of the kingdom was confirmed to be nothing to
01:17:11dirty bastard
01:17:12the heavy and terrifying karmic backtrack transformed into invisible bullets cutting at her guilty soul
01:17:16night and day the extreme fear and massive mental shock drove the normally arrogant and harsh old woman
01:17:21completely sane that night as the sounds of rioting echo outside the old woman ended her guilty life with
01:17:28a white silk cord hanging from a beam in the cold lonely main manor
01:17:33the next morning when ronan pushed open the door and saw his mother's stiff body hanging in mid-air he
01:17:41only let out a few horny tragic laughs unable to squeeze out even a single tear meanwhile thousands
01:17:48of miles away from the wind kingdom at the frozen border an incredibly luxurious sacred carriage was
01:17:53hurtling through the sky the carriage compartment was stuffed with radiant rare treasures the entire
01:17:57foundation of the wind kingdom that vanessa and chief cap two wolves shown only with absolute
01:18:01oz greed for wealth vanessa this chest of divine items belongs to me without my guard team coordinating
01:18:07you wouldn't have even made it out the main gates of the manor nonsense without the lord's palisman
01:18:12that i stole what would you even be these treasures are my reliance for the rest of my life don't
01:18:16you
01:18:16dare take a single penny in the face of interest their past familiarity vanished completely due to an unfair
01:18:21distribution of the spoils malice erupted in both of them and they immediately engaged in a fierce
01:18:25magical brawl inside the narrow carriage wild wind blades and toxic mists clashed violently inside
01:18:30the compartment creating continuous loud explosions as the out of control carriage traveled along a highly
01:18:35treacherous mountain path the draft bears panicked and went wild
01:18:46damn damn it amid a piercing streak the out of control carriage plunged off the cliff edge
01:18:53carrying the couple and the treasures they had schemed so hard to steal crashing heavily into the
01:18:58boulder stretch bottom of the deep valley beneath the deep valley the rain poured heavily the carriage
01:19:04had shattered completely with broken wood and magic crystals scattered across the ground amid the rubble
01:19:09the bodies of vanessa and ashwick lay twisted together torn apart by the wild magic to the point of
01:19:14being unrecognizable dying an incredibly gruesome death that green tea face that had once used illusion
01:19:20potions to maintain a false appearance of perfection was now sliced and bloodied by the rocks
01:19:27buzz space rippled slightly as several royal guards clad in pure gold robes quietly descended upon the
01:19:32crash site seraphina did not even need to act personally merely sending the sanctuary's cleanup
01:19:37group to wrap things up this is the heavenly karma for those who betray her majesty the guards raised their
01:19:43hands golden light surging from from their palms as the magic arenas activated the scattered
01:19:47ancient treasures and sacred resource of the wind kingdom were entirely gathered and reclaimed these
01:19:51items carried a significant amount of fortune and now that they were continuously funneled into the
01:19:55treasury of the supreme always had the villains had calculated everything only to lose their lives in
01:20:01the end and turn the wind kingdom's thousands of years of accumulation into a stepping stone to secure
01:20:07seraphia's supreme royal power which was ironic to the extreme having lost everything he sank completely
01:20:14into boundless darkness he had no mother no kingdom and no status to pride himself on whenever night fell
01:20:19across the empty ruins he seemed to hear her gentle voices and another's painful cries from her
01:20:23swaddling clothes those memories transformed into the most brutal torture tearing his mind apart bit by
01:20:27bit seraphina look i brought the sweetest spring water for our daughter today he began to exhibit severe
01:20:33split personality symptoms at times he would kneel on the ground and slap himself frantically crying
01:20:38out that he shouldn't have snatched his daughter's life-saving medicine at other times he would embrace
01:20:42the empty air gently pretending his wife and child were still by his side vanessa you vicious red give me
01:20:50back my daughter give me back my happiness he drowned his sorrows in alcohol all day his mind become
01:20:56increasingly fractured as he remained trapped indefinitely within the endless regret he had personally
01:21:00fashioned roman curled up in the corner of a freezing stone seat his clothes tattered his once proud
01:21:07spine broken by regret his hands were blooded and his fingernails filled with mud from frantically
01:21:13digging through the rubble for garments seraphana had left behind look at that that's the wise lord
01:21:22who trampled his true wife for a green tea woman back then
01:21:29he really is a pathetic dog ronian was completely deaf to these mocks merely clutching a tattered cloth
01:21:36doll tightly to his chest a toy he had fashioned for iris from memory since his magic was entirely gone
01:21:42his appearance was aging at a visible rate his long hair turning into dry white strands whenever the harsh
01:21:48alcohol hit his throat he would begin to self-harm he used sharp stones to carve the name seraphina
01:21:55deeply into his arms drawing blood yet it could not stop the splitting pain in his chest
01:22:16the once high and mighty king had ultimately transformed into a mentally degranged madman
01:22:21fighting with wild dogs for food in the ruins death would be a merciful release for him and remaining
01:22:27conscious to endure this life sentence of regret was his ultimate punishment as for jasper the three
01:22:34year old fake he who had been pampered by the entire kingdom he was after all an innocent and
01:22:39ignorant child who did not understand the greed and sins of adults with the deaths of vanair and oswin
01:22:44the vanity privileges and flamberty that had once around him him vanished overnight once the truth of the
01:22:48royal bloodline array spread he was no longer the high and mighty young master and the silver of magic he
01:22:53had forced out by stealing iris sacred tree extract completely withered due to a lack of subsequent
01:22:57nourishment the forged mark on his forehead disappeared and he was reduced to a perfectly
01:23:01ordinary mediocre child take him away let him become an ordinary farming child at the border
01:23:10this ruin of the wind kingdom should not retain a bloodline of sin
01:23:30he no longer had a luxurious golden cradle or a crowd of attendants surrounding him he was sent to
01:23:35a remote village far from power struggles becoming an ordinary orphan who knew nothing of his birth parents
01:23:41perhaps staying far away from the grievers here the coronation ceremony lasted for seven days before
01:23:48finally came to a successful conclusion seraphina stood atop the highest altar of the supreme sanctuary
01:23:53with past severing her ties completely submission weakness and ridiculous mortal affection to radiate
01:23:59and natural wings behind her back over all the world and by her side she held the hand of a
01:24:02beautiful
01:24:03smiling young girl iris had completely recovered not only was the supreme bloodline within her body fully
01:24:07awakened but her large eyes shone as brightly as a galaxy shaking her little head she held seraph onto
01:24:12the divine throne that symbolized the highest power of the elfin world amid the mountain shattering worship
01:24:16of all living being mother it's so beautiful here will anyone dare to bully us from now on seraphana looked
01:24:25down
01:24:26gently stroking the brilliant supreme golden mark on her forehead her eyes filled with maternal resolve
01:24:33no my darling from this day forward mother will protect you and no one will ever be able to harm
01:24:38you in the slightest mother and daughter sat side by side upon the divine throne beneath their feet lay
01:24:42the vast prospering territory of the elven royal family the empress who had cast aside romantic
01:24:46attachments now stood alone in her divinity ruling over the sanctuary and beginning a legendary era that
01:24:50belonged entirely to them
