Ex-husband Stole My Daughter's Cure, Regretted Knowing I'm The Elven Queen englishsub watchfull⚡️🍿⚡️
Transcript
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 manna to bear this child,
00:00:25the ridiculous shred of hope still flickered in my heart years ago.
00:00:28When 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, the lord of a mere mid-tier
00:00:55Elfin Kingdom.
00:00:57To repay that debt, I concealed my supreme identity,
00:01:02even using a forbidden ritual to seal away the radiant wings of nature
00:01:08on my back that symbolized supreme divine authority.
00:01:12I willingly became an ordinary female elf, with no background, marrying into his territory.
00:01:19Under a false name for years, I remained gentle and submissive,
00:01:24using my own pure-blooded mana to nourish his family, all 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, Vanessa.
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, bought 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, the lord has finished his external affairs
00:02:46and 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, the blood in my veins turning to ice.
00:03:19My husband stood there, tall and elegant in his black robes,
00:03:23and right beside him stood a woman, the 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,
00:03:33with 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,
00:03:51Vanessa looked up and spotted me, her mouth curving into a flitting, provocative smirk.
00:03:56She intentionally leaned closer into Ronan's embrace, her voice soft yet dripping with malice.
00:04:02Ronan, so 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, even placing a lingering kiss upon her forehead,
00:04:17right in front of me.
00:04:19When he turned to me, his tone was piercingly cold and dismissive.
00:04:24Think nothing of it, Vanessa.
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, look closely.
00:04:37This is the daughter I just risked my life to give you.
00:04:41Look at her, she was just born.
00:04:42Look how beautiful she is.
00:04:43Ronan cast a brief, indifferent glance downward.
00:04:46In his eyes, there was not a shred of paternal emotion, only naked disgust and annoyance.
00:04:51He swiftly averted his gaze, as though looking at his own flesh and blood for even a second longer would
00:04:56defile his relationship with Vanessa.
00:04:58Vanessa's gaze locked onto the infant in my arms, a flash of venom crossing her eyes.
00:05:04Promptly, she lifted her pitiful face, gazing up at Ronan with a trembling sob.
00:05:09Ronan, she has already born a child for the tribe.
00:05:13Then what about our Jasper?
00:05:14He followed me, wandering among foreign kingdoms, and suffered for three long years.
00:05:19He is your eldest son, the 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, entirely devoid of guilt, and let out a righteous, cold snot.
00:05:43Good, you saw it. Saves me the trouble of explaining.
00:05:45When Vanessa left three years ago, she was already pregnant with my child!
00:05:48For these three years, she raised Jasper alone among foreign kingdoms, enduring endless grievance.
00:05:52Now that she has returned, I must make it them properly, restoring everything that belongs to them a thousand times
00:05:57over!
00:05:59I stared at the picture-perfect family of three before me, as a boundless despair swallowed me like a tidal
00:06:06wave.
00:06:07Just as I was on the verge of collapsing, Ronan's mother, Elodie, walked over hoarsely, flanked by attendants.
00:06:15Three-year-old Jasper was incredibly sweet-talked, twitching his delicate little elven ears.
00:06:19He immediately ran over on his short legs and tightly hugged Elodie's leg.
00:06:24Grandma! I finally get to see you!
00:06:28Mother said you are the most benevolent and noble elder in the entire kingdom!
00:06:36Elodie, who was extremely superstitious about bloodlines and male esters, melted instantly.
00:06:42She gathered Jasper into her arms, treating him like her ultimate treasure.
00:06:47Seizing the moment, Vanetha leaned into Ronan's embrace, weeping with feigned grievance.
00:06:53It's all my fault! If I had been stronger!
00:06:57Your 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 and my weakly, wailing daughter, her
00:07:13eyes 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 Wythen Tower at the border right now!
00:07:33I won't let you bring your bad luck near my precious grandson!
00:07:39Ronan, Iris 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, his tone dripping with disdain.
00:07:54Mother is right.
00:07:56Jasper is the future and 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, squeezing her throat to spit out the most poison words.
00:08:22Loser.
00:08:24Since you possess no noble bloodline.
00:08:26Staying here will only bring you self-inflicted humiliation.
00:08:32Looking at their hypocritical, I clenched my fingers, and the very last ember of gratitude within me was completely extinguished.
00:08:41The cold wind wowed through the withered tower, a place that never saw a single ray of moonlight.
00:08:48I held my frail little daughter close, huddling in the corner of the freezing stone wall.
00:08:54Having barely survived childbirth, and with my mana completely burned out,
00:09:00my chest felt as if it were being torn apart.
00:09:03By ten thousand winds.
00:09:06Just when I was completely helpless and desperate,
00:09:10the heavy wooden door of the tower was suddenly pushed open,
00:09:14and Ronan walked in, silhouetted against the light.
00:09:19In that single instant, a ridiculous shred of hope actually flared up once more in my deadland heart.
00:09:28He was the child's father.
00:09:30Had he finally softened coming to bring some mana, to ward off the cold?
00:09:36Or to take my daughter and me back?
00:09:38Forcing my mana-depleased body up, my pale looks trembled.
00:09:43Did you come to see Iris?
00:09:44Iris, she caught a chill, and the divine mark on her forehead is growing weaker and weaker.
00:09:52Please, 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...
00:10:02I only came here to warn you.
00:10:05Stay in your withered tower quietly.
00:10:08Sign this declaration relinquishing your rights as the primary mistress,
00:10:10and don't try any clever tricks.
00:10:12I felt as though I had been struck by lightning,
00:10:15taking a shocked step back.
00:10:17I stared firmly at the man.
00:10:20I 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 and a fierce protectiveness for Vanessa.
00:10:44Vanessa 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 to 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 to secretly harm them.
00:11:11Or attempt to steal the resources that belong to Jasper.
00:11:16I will absolutely show you no mercy!
00:11:19In the darkness, my daughter let out a faint, protesting cry.
00:11:23Ronan, however, did not bother to spare even a glance from the corner of his eye.
00:11:27He turned and departed resolutely,
00:11:29the heavy iron door slamming shut with a resounding thud.
00:11:33Holding my child, I collapsed into the freezing mud,
00:11:36laughing at my own stupidity.
00:11:38He came only to warn me.
00:11:40The night sky hung low as the freezing wind raged
00:11:44through the dead silence of the withered tower,
00:11:46preventing even a single slimmer of moonlight
00:11:49from penetrating the darkness.
00:11:51I had burned through the vast majority of my mana during childbirth.
00:11:54The magic within my body had completely dried up.
00:11:57I could only hold my little princess tightly in my arms,
00:12:00using my own faint body wheat to provide warmth for my infant,
00:12:03who was running a continuous low fever inside 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, music, and extravagant luxury.
00:12:17Vanessa and her son sat on a soft couch,
00:12:20covered in the rarest luminescent beast skins,
00:12:22basking in the attention and adoration
00:12:24of all the high-ranking elves in the kingdom.
00:12:27Three-year-old Jasper fluttered the tiny green elbin wings
00:12:30that had just begun to develop on his back.
00:12:32Holding an exquisite elbin sacred berry in his hands,
00:12:35his face completely smeared with juice,
00:12:37Elayda sat high upon her throne, grinning 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 Elayda looked at this chubby grandson,
00:12:49the more pleasing he seemed to her eye.
00:12:51Stroking the staff that symbolized her power as the High Priestess,
00:12:54she impatiently turned to prompt my husband,
00:12:57Ronan, who was standing beside her.
00:12:58Ronan, Vanessa and her son have wandered
00:13:01among foreign kingdoms for years,
00:13:03enduring endless hardships.
00:13:05Now my precious eldest grandson is 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 in the guest room so illegitimately?
00:13:17Tonight, you must have Vanessa and Jasper
00:13:20officially move into the Lord's main manor,
00:13:23into the bedchambers that 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, who was sweetly calling him father.
00:13:36The scales in his heart had 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 for the heir
00:13:49who truly carries the excellent bloodline of our kingdom.
00:13:52Seeing her son agree so readily,
00:13:54Eloi's face flushed with even more delight.
00:13:57Standing up hauntily while 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 at 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 for three-year-old Jasper.
00:14:22We shall high-profilely declare him
00:14:25as the primary heir of our Wind Kingdom's future!
00:14:29In three days, Jasper 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.
00:14:37Dressed in extravagant silks,
00:14:39she glided through the temple flanked 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, subconsciously,
00:14:57he still harbored a faint trace of worry for 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 would never be safe.
00:15:13An opportunity presented itself sooner than expected.
00:15:15Early this morning,
00:15:17desperate to give my frail daughter
00:15:18a single drop of clean water,
00:15:19my completely helpless self
00:15:21was forced to drag my broken body out of the tower,
00:15:23heading deep into the woods
00:15:25to harvest pure spring water filtered 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 around the main manor,
00:15:36taking only a few of her most ruthless disconfidence
00:15:38as she slipped into the dark,
00:15:40abandoned, 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 of 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 shimmering on her forehead
00:16:02radiated an undeniable nobility and purity,
00:16:04a mark that made Vanessa's eyes burn with pure envy.
00:16:08You pathetic little freak.
00:16:11You think you're worthy of Ronan's blood?
00:16:13If you want to blame anyone,
00:16:16blame your useless mother.
00:16:18The mask of innocence slipped 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 from the black market.
00:16:36Soul-eating elixir,
00:16:37specifically designed to dissolve a newborn elf's mana core,
00:16:41and caused 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.
00:17:01With a distorted, demonic sneer,
00:17:03she forced the entire bottle of 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
00:17:14of pure spring water tightly to my chest,
00:17:17what greeted me was not the gentle sound
00:17:19of my daughter's breathing,
00:17:20but a deathly silence.
00:17:22My heart skipped a beat,
00:17:24and a boundless panic instantly seized me
00:17:28in a death grip.
00:17:30I practically crawled
00:17:31and scrambled my way toward 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, deathly energy.
00:18:01What truly shattered my soul
00:18:03was that the faint golden elven divine mark
00:18:06on her forehead,
00:18:07which had been flickering softly,
00:18:09was now darkened across a massive area.
00:18:14Iris!
00:18:17Wake up!
00:18:19Look at Mommy!
00:18:21Don't scare Mommy!
00:18:22I was sprinting 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 took 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 instantly changed color.
00:18:44His hands trembled
00:18:45as he probed the fluctuations
00:18:48within my daughter's body,
00:18:49his eyes filling with horror.
00:18:53Heavens!
00:18:54This...
00:18:55This is the forbidden poison
00:18:56that destroys the mana core!
00:18:59The child's natural core
00:19:00is withering away,
00:19:02inch by inch.
00:19:03She is in critical danger
00:19:04and will not survive
00:19:05past 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 where I wished
00:19:12I could die on the spot.
00:19:15To suppress this aggressive toxin,
00:19:18we must immediately inject
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.
00:19:32I forcibly reversed
00:19:33the 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.
00:19:44Rowan,
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 for 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
00:20:20for every additional second
00:20:22brought a tearing,
00:20:23agonizing pain
00:20:24to my dried up
00:20:24sea of consciousness.
00:20:25I refused to let go.
00:20:28At this moment,
00:20:29inside the Wind Kingdom's
00:20:30main manor,
00:20:31Ronan 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,
00:20:40was pulling back
00:20:42a delicate,
00:20:42short,
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
00:20:53attendants,
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
00:21:00like an act
00:21:01of self-mutilation
00:21:03after coldly cutting it off
00:21:04over a dozen times.
00:21:06Ronan finally accepted
00:21:07the connection.
00:21:09His phantom projection
00:21:10materialized in midair,
00:21:11looking 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.
00:21:18Serifana,
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 the compatible
00:21:37mana from your body
00:21:38immediately
00:21:39to protect her heart path.
00:21:41I beg you,
00:21:43come and see her.
00:21:45Poisoned?
00:21:46The 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!
00:22:06I 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 Concord
00:22:15is insecure.
00:22:16But I am warning you,
00:22:18do not use a child
00:22:21as an excuse
00:22:23to disturb me.
00:22:27Jasper has to try
00:22:28on his robes
00:22:28for the dawn celebration
00:22:29in 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 wait
00:22:42for me
00:22:42to utter another 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 projection
00:22:52in mid-air
00:22:53dissolved instantly
00:22:54and along with it,
00:22:55the very last shred
00:22:57of my hope
00:22:58was crushed
00:22:59to 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 unease news
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
00:23:21in Ronion's expression.
00:23:23A flash of panic
00:23:25crossed her eyes,
00:23:26but it was quickly
00:23:27replaced
00:23:28by a profound
00:23:29calculating look.
00:23:30Vanessa stepped
00:23:31forward gently,
00:23:32considerably smoothing
00:23:33out the wrinkles
00:23:34on Ronion's groves
00:23:34as 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
00:23:43as well.
00:23:43How about we go
00:23:45to the infirmary
00:23:45to take a look
00:23:46right now?
00:23:47After all,
00:23:48the little princess
00:23:48is also your flesh
00:23:49and blood.
00:23:50He absolutely mustn't
00:23:52let anything terrible
00:23:52happen.
00:23:53Seeing Vanessa
00:23:54being so magnanimous
00:23:55in understanding,
00:23:56the irritation
00:23:57in Ronion's heart
00:23:58dissipated quite a bit,
00:23:59and he nodded
00:24:00immediately.
00:24:01Very well.
00:24:02We will do
00:24:03as you say.
00:24:04I want to see
00:24:06what kind of trick
00:24:07she can fabric.
00:24:08Then I will go
00:24:09prepare some
00:24:10monaspring water
00:24:10to soothe
00:24:11the child's mind.
00:24:13Wait for me
00:24:14a moment.
00:24:14Vanessa turned around,
00:24:16and the moment
00:24:16she was at an angle
00:24:17where Ronion
00:24:18could not see her.
00:24:18The tenderness
00:24:19on 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
00:24:24any spring water.
00:24:25Instead,
00:24:25she dispatched
00:24:26trustficent
00:24:27carrying heavy
00:24:28gold monocrystals
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
00:24:37was 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.
00:24:45Staring at the infant
00:24:47on the hospital bed,
00:24:48who was hanging
00:24:48onto life
00:24:49by a mere thread,
00:24:50the 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.
00:24:57She pulled
00:24:58an advanced,
00:24:59consecutive illusion potion
00:25:01from her sleeve,
00:25:02a formula capable
00:25:04of temporarily
00:25:05suppressing toxicity
00:25:06and forging
00:25:07a false appearance
00:25:08of health.
00:25:09Pinching the little
00:25:10princess' delicate neck,
00:25:11she poured
00:25:12the illusion potion
00:25:13down without
00:25:13the slightest hesitation.
00:25:15the 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
00:25:29body 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,
00:25:35she 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
00:25:50as I stared
00:25:51at my daughter.
00:25:53Just moments ago
00:25:54after Vanessa came in,
00:25:56under a false pretext,
00:25:58the deathly energy
00:25:58on Iris's face
00:25:59suddenly 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,
00:26:18her breathing
00:26:19was steady.
00:26:22Then he whipped
00:26:23his head around,
00:26:24staring dead
00:26:24at my deathly
00:26:25pale face.
00:26:27His voice
00:26:28was sharp,
00:26:30cutting,
00:26:30and poisoned.
00:26:32Seraphana!
00:26:33This is the
00:26:34life-threatening danger
00:26:35you 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
00:26:58turned cold.
00:26:59No!
00:27:00Ronan,
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
00:27:06just now!
00:27:07She fed something
00:27:07to 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,
00:27:15as if he were
00:27:15my last saving straw.
00:27:17Doctor,
00:27:18speak up!
00:27:21You clearly
00:27:21told me
00:27:22had been struck
00:27:23by a forbidden
00:27:24poison.
00:27:25You said it was
00:27:25destroying her 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 Tara 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
00:27:51shattered like a bolt
00:27:52from Moments of Blue.
00:27:53How could it
00:27:53suddenly change?
00:27:55Watching me
00:27:56fall to 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,
00:28:01venomous smile
00:28:02of triumph play
00:28:03on the corners
00:28:04of her lips.
00:28:05Then,
00:28:05stepping 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
00:28:15on the sickbed,
00:28:17she continuously
00:28:17blew poisonous whispers
00:28:19into Ronan's ear.
00:28:20Ronan,
00:28:21don't blame the primary
00:28:22mistress too much.
00:28:24Iris is a girl
00:28:25after all,
00:28:26born with a weak
00:28:26constitution.
00:28:28It is only natural
00:28:29she panicked
00:28:29when a minor chill
00:28:30threw the child
00:28:30into such a state.
00:28:32It's just,
00:28:34the primary mistress
00:28:35is far too sensitive.
00:28:37Always catching
00:28:38its shadows
00:28:39and blowing
00:28:39minor 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
00:28:47ceremony is in
00:28:48just two 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 daughter
00:29:16on the sickbed.
00:29:17Vanessa,
00:29:18you are the one
00:29:19who is truly sensible.
00:29:21Come,
00:29:21let us return.
00:29:23And ignore
00:29:23this 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
00:29:37did 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
00:29:43on his hands
00:29:44and knees
00:29:45to my feet,
00:29:46co-oating frantically
00:29:47while crying out
00:29:48in absolute despair.
00:29:50Your highness,
00:29:51primary mistress,
00:29:52please do not blame me.
00:29:55I deserve to die.
00:29:56I deserve to die.
00:29:58Why did you lie just now?
00:30:00Madam Vanessa
00:30:01has officially moved
00:30:02into the Lord's main mansion
00:30:03with the heir
00:30:04and enjoys
00:30:05the Lord's absolute 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 cooperate,
00:30:15she would take
00:30:16my entire family's lives
00:30:17tonight and even
00:30:17have the Lord
00:30:18take my head.
00:30:18She would truly kill me.
00:30:19Listening to the doctor's
00:30:20desperate wails,
00:30:21I looked at my daughter
00:30:22on the sick head,
00:30:22whose condition
00:30:23was forcibly masked
00:30:24as peaceful
00:30:24by the illusionless poison.
00:30:25Ronan,
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
00:30:50with sacred florencent petals,
00:30:53and they went so far
00:30:55as to exceptionally tame
00:30:57nine pure white unicorns
00:31:00to draw a crystal-invented 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 dressed Jasper,
00:31:13his delicate little elven wings
00:31:15fluttering,
00:31:17and ascended the float,
00:31:19waves of deafening cheers 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,
00:31:30watching this absurd fast
00:31:32with cold detachment.
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
00:31:42in 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 from afar.
00:31:51With a flicker in her eyes,
00:31:53she intentionally walked 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 were filled
00:32:02with condescending charity.
00:32:04Sister,
00:32:05do not blame Mother and Ronin
00:32:06for being heartless.
00:32:07The Withered Tower
00:32:08is peaceful,
00:32:09making it the perfect place
00:32:10for your magic-deficient daughter
00:32:12to recuperate.
00:32:13Today is our Jasper's
00:32:14succession celebration.
00:32:15You shouldn't have brought 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 of dispersing.
00:32:21We must not let her clash
00:32:23with Jasper's unicorn fortune
00:32:25after today.
00:32:26Jasper will be
00:32:27the rightful first heir,
00:32:28while 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.
00:32:34While Vanessa subjected me
00:32:36to endless mockery,
00:32:37the parade reached
00:32:38its absolute climax.
00:32:41Clad in a magnificent
00:32:42silver-white robe,
00:32:43a commanding
00:32:43and majestic Ronin
00:32:45ascended the central divine altar
00:32:47under the gaze
00:32:48of the masses.
00:32:49Raising his hands,
00:32:50he used amplification magic
00:32:51to declare to 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 as heir,
00:33:03but the starting point
00:33:04for our wind kingdoms
00:33:05to 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 cooperations
00:33:14with the mysterious
00:33:15and supreme
00:33:16High Elfin King
00:33:17of the Sanctuary!
00:33:18I couldn't help but laugh.
00:33:19The supreme High Elfin 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,
00:33:30a massive uproar
00:33:32rippled through the crowd.
00:33:34The High Elfin King
00:33:36was the supreme ruler
00:33:37of the entire Elfin world.
00:33:40A 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
00:33:53was 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,
00:34:31her eyes brimming
00:34:32with ostentations
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 marking
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
00:34:45shred of anger.
00:34:47Instead,
00:34:48I lowered my head
00:34:49and gently kissed
00:34:50the suppressed
00:34:50divine mark
00:34:51on my daughter's forehead.
00:34:52The sole direct bloodline
00:34:55of the High Elven King
00:34:56is,
00:34:58at this very moment,
00:35:00lying within
00:35:00the swaddling clothes
00:35:02you have dismissed
00:35:04as worthless garbage.
00:35:08Ronan,
00:35:09Vanessa,
00:35:10the supreme divinity
00:35:11you are scheming
00:35:12to please
00:35:13by any means necessary
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
00:35:24firved 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.
00:36:13I knelt by the bedside,
00:36:15my magic entirely dried up,
00:36:18leaving me helpless
00:36:19as I pressed my cheek
00:36:21against her icy little hand.
00:36:23My tears long since dried.
00:36:26Just as I was on the verge
00:36:28of despairing unto death,
00:36:29the wooden door
00:36:30of the high tower
00:36:31was suddenly pushed open
00:36:33in a frenzy.
00:36:33The Wind Kingdom doctor
00:36:35burst in,
00:36:36dripping with sweat,
00:36:37his eyes a tangled mess
00:36:39of guilt and terror.
00:36:40With trembling hands,
00:36:42he presented a crystal bottle,
00:36:44radiating a warm,
00:36:46sacred golden light
00:36:47like the midday sun.
00:36:49This medicine
00:36:49can neutralize all poisons,
00:36:51save those on 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 little princess quickly.
00:36:58This is her sole path
00:37:00to survival.
00:37:01Staring at that ball
00:37:02of sacred golden light,
00:37:03my deadened heart
00:37:04began to beat frantically.
00:37:05I snatched the spiritual medicine,
00:37:07clutching it tightly to my chest,
00:37:08my heart overflowing with joy
00:37:10as I believed my 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
00:37:17into 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 with a majestic
00:37:30yet greedy expression.
00:37:31Before I could even react,
00:37:33she ruthlessly
00:37:34snatched the crystal bottle
00:37:35right out of my hands!
00:37:40Illion gripped the flask
00:37:41of sacred tree extract tightly.
00:37:43Feeling the boundless
00:37:44sacred energy swirling 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
00:38:01using their magical staffs.
00:38:03My knees slammed
00:38:04against the hard stone tiles,
00:38:06emitting a sickening crack.
00:38:09Following closely behind,
00:38:11Ronan looked down at me
00:38:12with cold detachment,
00:38:14devoid of any pity.
00:38:16Alayda trembled
00:38:17with excitement,
00:38:18refusing 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!
00:38:30Though three-year-old
00:38:30Jasper is
00:38:31extraordinarily 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 spotlight!
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 waste
00:38:56of a divine gift.
00:38:57Only Jasper
00:38:58is worthy of enjoying it.
00:39:01Vanessa walked in
00:39:01at that moment
00:39:02carrying three-year-old Jasper,
00:39:04looking 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 and 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
00:39:21completely.
00:39:23Amid my agonized weeping,
00:39:25that priceless flask
00:39:27of sacred tree extract
00:39:28was gently yet
00:39:30forcefully poured
00:39:31into the mouth
00:39:32of the perfectly
00:39:33livable Jasper
00:39:34by Eladid.
00:39:35The moment the 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 magic
00:39:43surge instantly,
00:39:44but his height
00:39:45even seemed to increase
00:39:47slightly.
00:39:48The three-year-old toddler
00:39:49excitedly brashed
00:39:50at his magic in the hall
00:39:51while Ronan and Vanessa
00:39:52surrounded him,
00:39:54letting out waves
00:39:54of absolute delight.
00:39:57The happier their laughter,
00:39:59the more shattered
00:40:00my heart became.
00:40:01Ronan looked down upon me
00:40:02as I lay limp
00:40:02on the ground,
00:40:03his cold words
00:40:04cutting like blades.
00:40:06Seraphina,
00:40:07cease your weeping here.
00:40:09Jasper is the future
00:40:11hope of the kingdom.
00:40:12Giving this medicine
00:40:13to him ensures
00:40:14it is put
00:40:14to its proper use.
00:40:15As 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 business
00:40:24over her,
00:40:25and she certainly
00:40:26does not deserve
00:40:27a divine object
00:40:27like the sacred tree 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 back
00:40:38into a deathly silence.
00:40:40I crawled to the bedside,
00:40:42looking at my empty hands,
00:40:44and then at my daughter,
00:40:46whose core was withering,
00:40:48as she spit out
00:40:48another mouthful
00:40:49of black blood
00:40:50from the poison
00:40:51gripping her heart.
00:40:52My daughter opened
00:40:52her eyes weakly,
00:40:54rubbing against my palm
00:40:55with a touch of attachment,
00:40:56before sinking entirely
00:40:57into a deathly coldness.
00:40:59Slowly raising
00:41:00my right hand,
00:41:01I spared no cost
00:41:02to force out
00:41:03the final drop
00:41:04of supreme golden blood
00:41:06from my heart,
00:41:07drawing a sacred,
00:41:08golden-winged armor
00:41:09in the void.
00:41:10Through the array,
00:41:12a connection
00:41:12was instantly forged
00:41:14to the deepest depths
00:41:15of the Sanctuary,
00:41:16unleashing a supreme pressure
00:41:18that made all kingdoms tremble.
00:41:20My daughter,
00:41:21you are finally willing
00:41:22to contact your father.
00:41:23You have suffered
00:41:24these past three years.
00:41:26Cradling the icy form
00:41:27tightly in my arms,
00:41:28tears of blood
00:41:28tracing down my face.
00:41:29My voice was completely calm,
00:41:31devoid of a single ripple
00:41:32has been from emotion.
00:41:33My daughter is dying.
00:41:34Please open the gates
00:41:34of the Sanctuary
00:41:35and take us mother and daughter
00:41:36home.
00:41:37The supreme array
00:41:39faded into the air
00:41:40and forcing my dying,
00:41:42battered body forward,
00:41:43I carried my daughter
00:41:44out of the Withered Tower.
00:41:46My daughter's fragile form
00:41:47barely clung to life.
00:41:49Without disturbing anyone,
00:41:51I walked step by step
00:41:53to the center of the territory,
00:41:54stopping before the Tree of Life.
00:41:57Many I was wrongly rode of
00:41:58to stand into the
00:41:59Yubur Mayan number stool.
00:42:01Swearing by the supreme bloodline,
00:42:03I sever the covenant
00:42:05and erase my holy name
00:42:07here today.
00:42:12Inside the main manor,
00:42:14Ronan felt a sudden
00:42:16violent spasm of pain
00:42:17strike his chest.
00:42:20Ronan,
00:42:21three years of marital devotion
00:42:23has been personally severed
00:42:24by your hand today.
00:42:26The trampling you granted me,
00:42:27I have accepted.
00:42:28From this day forward,
00:42:29we shall not meet again
00:42:29in life nor death.
00:42:31Serafina,
00:42:32what madness are you throwing now
00:42:33over such a trivial matter
00:42:34you would go so far
00:42:35as to harm your own body
00:42:36to forge a fortune backlash?
00:42:38I have no time to play
00:42:39these cat and mouse games with you.
00:42:41If you have the ability to leave,
00:42:42then ensure you never return!
00:42:45Sister has simply been spoiled by you.
00:42:48In a couple of days,
00:42:49once she has suffered enough outside,
00:42:51she will naturally come back
00:42:53begging on her needs.
00:42:54Let us ignore her.
00:42:57That night,
00:42:58the entire main manor
00:43:00of the Wind Kingdom
00:43:01was brightly lit
00:43:03and adorned
00:43:05with festive decorations.
00:43:06To celebrate
00:43:07three-year-old Jasper
00:43:08consuming the sacred tree extract
00:43:11and experiencing
00:43:12a surge in magic,
00:43:14Aline ordered
00:43:15an all-night festival
00:43:16of music and dance.
00:43:18Inside the magnificent main hall,
00:43:21the aroma of fine wine
00:43:22filled the air
00:43:22as countless high-tier elves
00:43:24raised their glasses in unison,
00:43:26surrounding Vanessa
00:43:27and her son at the center
00:43:28with absolute flattery
00:43:29and obdaciousness.
00:43:31Ronan sat upon his throne,
00:43:33looking at his triumphant
00:43:34eldest son,
00:43:36his eyes filled with 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 cheers
00:43:46echoed through the night sky,
00:43:48transforming the entire 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,
00:44:00a slender and resolute figure
00:44:01was carrying a sweatling cloth,
00:44:03stepping into
00:44:04the boundless curtain of night.
00:44:05The freezing rain
00:44:06slammed down merseusely.
00:44:07Serafina's face
00:44:08was deathly still,
00:44:09but her hands held
00:44:10the daughter in her arms
00:44:11with absolute tightness.
00:44:12Iris's breathing
00:44:13within the cloth
00:44:14was faint,
00:44:15her tiny body
00:44:15gradually turning
00:44:16stirby and cold.
00:44:17Serafina did not
00:44:18cast a single glance back
00:44:19at the false prosperity
00:44:20of the Wind Kingdom
00:44:21behind her.
00:44:22Her eyes held no more tears,
00:44:24only an indifference
00:44:24that chilled to 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
00:44:30the fine wine
00:44:31handed to him by Vanessa.
00:44:32At that exact instant,
00:44:34deep within the dark forest
00:44:35far away,
00:44:36the violent cold wind
00:44:36came to an abrupt halt
00:44:37without warning.
00:44:38A sliver of incredibly noble,
00:44:40sacred and tore through
00:44:40the darkness of the polar night.
00:44:42The frame foes
00:44:42at the edge
00:44:43of the dark, silent forest.
00:44:45The sounds of the Wind Kingdom's
00:44:46celebratory songs and laugh
00:44:47still echoed faintly,
00:44:48but the moment the mother
00:44:49and girl's slender
00:44:50yet matchlessly noble fears
00:44:51that sliver of golden light,
00:44:53they instantly transformed
00:44:54into a remnant gleam,
00:44:56vanishing completely
00:44:57into the endless night.
00:44:59The sacred light
00:45:00erupted outward
00:45:01at the center of 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
00:45:08onto my knees
00:45:09against the flawless
00:45:10white jade floor tiles,
00:45:11my strength entirely 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 of post-parting recovery,
00:45:19comboled with the trauma
00:45:20of forcibly reversing
00:45:21my source power,
00:45:22caused me to leave
00:45:22a striking trail of blood
00:45:23with 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 10,000 years
00:45:32of history,
00:45:33trembled violently
00:45:34with immense shock
00:45:35and heartache.
00:45:36Moving like a blur,
00:45:37he materialized by my side
00:45:39in an instant,
00:45:40his hands shaking
00:45:41as he tried
00:45:42to lift me up.
00:45:43My daughter!
00:45:44How did you become
00:45:45like this?
00:45:48Your supreme magic,
00:45:49which even 10,000 kingdoms
00:45:51look up to,
00:45:52why has it withered
00:45:53to such an extent?
00:45:56I slowly raised my head,
00:45:58the 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
00:46:02the final shred
00:46:03of strength in my body
00:46:03to 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
00:46:09biological flesh and blood,
00:46:10yet they dismissed her
00:46:11as a lowly wretch.
00:46:12To steal her
00:46:13life-saving medicine,
00:46:14they fed my iris
00:46:15forbidden illusion potions
00:46:16to forcibly mask the truth.
00:46:18She has been poisoned
00:46:19with soul-eating grass,
00:46:21and her magic core
00:46:22is on the verge of shattering.
00:46:23My father took
00:46:24the tiny swatting cloth
00:46:25with trembling hands.
00:46:26When his divine sense
00:46:27swept tross his granddaughter's
00:46:29battered natural core,
00:46:30which was being ravenously
00:46:31consumed by the poison,
00:46:33this supreme gaiety
00:46:34who ruled over
00:46:35the entire sanctuary
00:46:36felt his eyes
00:46:37turn instantly bloodluck,
00:46:38immediately following
00:46:39a terrifying,
00:46:41world-destroying pressure
00:46:42erupted violently
00:46:44from his body.
00:46:47In an instant,
00:46:49the 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
00:46:59of 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
00:47:06under 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
00:47:19through heaven and earth.
00:47:21The 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!
00:47:32Whosoever dares harm my glorish,
00:47:33I shall demand
00:47:34their entire kingdom
00:47:35accompany her in death!
00:47:37To rescue Iris
00:47:38from the brink of death,
00:47:40my father did not hesitate
00:47:41for a moment,
00:47:42immediately ordering
00:47:43the opening of 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
00:47:54the high priests
00:47:55of the sanctuary
00:47:56had no right
00:47:57to approach normally.
00:47:59Yet it was fully open today
00:48:00for my daughter.
00:48:02Every 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,
00:48:16and ocean-like purity
00:48:16of magic.
00:48:17A canopy of brilliant golden light
00:48:19wrapped around Iris' tiny body
00:48:20layer by layer,
00:48:21like a coon
00:48:22nourished by this immense
00:48:23life force.
00:48:24The faint golden divine mark
00:48:26on Iris' forehead,
00:48:27which had been nearly cracked
00:48:28and extinguished,
00:48:30finally flickered
00:48:30with a weak resonance
00:48:31under the caress
00:48:33of the divine light.
00:48:34I kept watch
00:48:35by the bedside,
00:48:36my face pale,
00:48:37never leaving her side
00:48:38for 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,
00:48:46extracting 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
00:48:51was forced out,
00:48:52my daughter would let
00:48:54our faint kitten-like
00:48:55whipper of pain,
00:48:56and those drops
00:48:57of 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,
00:49:04watching her suffer,
00:49:05tore at my heart
00:49:06as if it were being cut
00:49:07by ten thousand blades.
00:49:09Ronan,
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
00:49:25the window frame
00:49:25on the third day,
00:49:27Iris suddenly let out
00:49:28a resounding cry
00:49:29from the bed.
00:49:30That cry was no longer
00:49:31weak and filled
00:49:32with despair like before,
00:49:34but brimming with
00:49:35the 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
00:49:40little face began
00:49:41to flush with color,
00:49:42her skin radiating
00:49:44a healthy glow.
00:49:45Congratulations, king!
00:49:47Congratulations, holy princess!
00:49:48The virilest poison
00:49:49within the little princess's
00:49:50body has 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
00:49:56and blue bubbles,
00:49:57the tears I had suppressed
00:49:58for three long years
00:50:00finally broke through
00:50:01the floodgates.
00:50:03The morning sun spilled
00:50:04across the luxurious couch
00:50:06where Vanessa was gently
00:50:06helping Ronan
00:50:07into his robes.
00:50:08However, Ronan's brow
00:50:09was furrowed tightly.
00:50:10His handsome face
00:50:11clouded with 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 scrambled
00:50:17into the hall,
00:50:18their faces as white as sheets.
00:50:19Lord, 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.
00:50:31The gates of the divine realm
00:50:33are closed to us.
00:50:35What did you say?
00:50:38The passage is locked.
00:50:41Who could possibly
00:50:43have such power?
00:50:44In that instant,
00:50:45the image of Seraphina's
00:50:46cold, ruthless phantom
00:50:48before her departure
00:50:49flashed through his mind
00:50:50and his heart sank.
00:50:52Could it be Seraphina?
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,
00:51:01self-decricketing laugh.
00:51:02Seraphina was nothing more
00:51:03than a lowly woman
00:51:04with no background,
00:51:05inferior even to a low-tier
00:51:07elf of the Wintuary
00:51:08that happened to affect
00:51:09their kingdom.
00:51:11Seeing his distress,
00:51:13Vanessa quickly moved closer,
00:51:15wrapping her arms
00:51:16around his to comfort him,
00:51:17teasingly.
00:51:19Exactly, Lord.
00:51:21Sister ran away
00:51:22in a tantrum
00:51:23and is probably hiding
00:51:24in 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
00:51:29to lock the ascension platform?
00:51:33Ronan pressed
00:51:34his throbbing temples.
00:51:36A 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,
00:51:48the 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 Jade Plaques
00:51:57for Seraphina and the infant.
00:51:58I want to see where they are
00:51:59hiding and laughing at me!
00:52:01My lord,
00:52:02spare my life!
00:52:03They cannot be brought out!
00:52:06Just three days ago,
00:52:07the primary mistress
00:52:08covenant mark
00:52:08under 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 untraceable.
00:52:29They have completely severed
00:52:30their bloodline
00:52:31and connection
00:52:32with the Wind Kingdom.
00:52:33Well played, Seraphina!
00:52:35To resort to such a self-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
00:52:45with your dying daughter
00:52:47without the protection
00:52:48of the Wind Kingdom!
00:52:50Watching her daughter
00:52:51sleep peacefully
00:52:52in the divine light
00:52:53of the sacred tree,
00:52:55Seraphina slowly stood up.
00:52:57The mole that tended
00:52:58as she turned to
00:52:58vanished 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 mortal deet.
00:53:07I degraded myself
00:53:08to cater to a blind,
00:53:10cold-blooded mortal.
00:53:11In return,
00:53:12they trampled all 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 shattered,
00:53:21the painful memories
00:53:22of her humiliation,
00:53:24Ronan'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-elval 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 grounds
00:53:51swung open.
00:53:52This was the sacred
00:53:52training pool exclusive
00:53:53to the heirs of
00:53:54the supreme royal family,
00:53:55filled with primeval
00:53:56priatan magic
00:53:56accumulated over 10,000 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
00:54:04bone-shattering
00:54:05transcendent.
00:54:06Without any hesitation,
00:54:07under the avarstek gaze
00:54:08of 10,000 pure-blooded
00:54:10elven guards,
00:54:11Seraphina stepped
00:54:11relutely into the terrifying,
00:54:13surging sacred pool
00:54:14clad in a simple
00:54:15white robe.
00:54:16Boom!
00:54:16The moment her body
00:54:17was completely submerged,
00:54:18the ancient magic erupted,
00:54:20unleashing towering golden waves.
00:54:22The violent prepezzanard energy
00:54:23slashed through her
00:54:23Merpicreans and bones
00:54:24like countless blades.
00:54:25Yet, she did not even flinch.
00:54:27The nine sore seals
00:54:28she had plissioned herself
00:54:28to repay her debt to Ronion
00:54:29began to shatter and unravel,
00:54:31completely awakening
00:54:32her de-dormant power
00:54:33under the furious onsla-
00:54:35Smash!
00:54:36Ronin shattered his
00:54:37communication 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 nothing
00:54:44but a cold, empty echo
00:54:45and the piercing pain
00:54:46of magical backlash.
00:54:48His frustration reached
00:54:49its peep as a suffocating
00:54:51panic of losing control
00:54:52gripped his throat.
00:54:53Just then,
00:54:54the hall doors pushed open
00:54:56and Vanessa walked in smiling,
00:54:58holding three-year-old
00:54:58Jasper by the hand.
00:55:00Roman, look!
00:55:02After taking the
00:55:03sacred tree extract today,
00:55:04Jasper can already control
00:55:06two high-tier wind blades!
00:55:08He truly is your eldest son.
00:55:12Ronin turned his
00:55:13irritated gaze onto 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 arrogant
00:55:23and brash face
00:55:24felt unprecedentedly discordal.
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-attributed
00:55:35magicic radiating from Jasper
00:55:36was crose and wild,
00:55:38sharing 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 outside
00:55:46years ago,
00:55:47crying that she had been
00:55:48hunted by enemies
00:55:49and forced to wander,
00:55:51Ronin pitied her
00:55:52and never questioned
00:55:53the bloodline.
00:55:54But now...
00:55:58Ronin,
00:55:59why 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 suspicion,
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,
00:56:21Ronin's eyes turned
00:56:22incredibly sinister.
00:56:23He looked toward the 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, Arapis.
00:56:30Remember,
00:56:31prepare it in secret.
00:56:32Find an opportunity
00:56:33to gather Jasper's hair
00:56:35and finger blood later.
00:56:36Vanessa must not know
00:56:37a 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!
00:56:47Meanwhile,
00:56:47in the sanctuary,
00:56:48around the forbidden
00:56:49sacred pool grounds,
00:56:5010,000 pureblood
00:56:51high elven generals,
00:56:52high priests,
00:56:53and gradually cards
00:56:53of the divine king
00:56:54knelt across the mountains.
00:56:55Everyone held their breath,
00:56:57looking up at the gradually
00:56:57calming sacred pool
00:56:58in awe.
00:56:59Suddenly,
00:56:59faint golden ripple
00:57:00carrying supreme authority
00:57:02spread from the center
00:57:02of the pool.
00:57:03A graceful,
00:57:04noble figure
00:57:05slowly rose
00:57:05from the center
00:57:06of the water.
00:57:07Seraphina's postpartum
00:57:08weakness and plast
00:57:08were entirely gone.
00:57:10Her skin shone
00:57:11like flawless white jade,
00:57:12flowing with a sacred light,
00:57:13and her once withered
00:57:14long hair turned
00:57:15into a dazzling golden color,
00:57:17skating down to her ankles.
00:57:18Under the baptism
00:57:19of the ancient
00:57:20presided energy,
00:57:21her appearance
00:57:21and magic
00:57:22were completely restored,
00:57:23far surpassing
00:57:24her past peak.
00:57:25The moment her feet
00:57:26left the water
00:57:27and she hovered
00:57:27in midair,
00:57:28the space behind her
00:57:29tore violently.
00:57:30Boom!
00:57:31Accompanied by a divine
00:57:32phoenix cry
00:57:33that echoed
00:57:33through the heavens,
00:57:34a pair of dazzling
00:57:35supreme natural wings
00:57:36radiating boundless
00:57:37life and destruction
00:57:38unfurled behind her back.
00:57:39The divine wings
00:57:40were massive,
00:57:40each feather
00:57:41condundated from
00:57:42the purest golden light
00:57:43of natural law.
00:57:44With a slight flutter,
00:57:45a terrifying pressure
00:57:46swept past
00:57:46like a tsunami.
00:57:47Unable to withstand
00:57:48the bloodline pressure
00:57:49from the depths
00:57:50of their souls,
00:57:51the ten thousand
00:57:52pure-blooded elves
00:57:52slammed their foreheads
00:57:54against the ground
00:57:55as the sacred roof
00:57:56and echoed in harmony.
00:57:57We welcome
00:57:58Her Majesty's
00:57:59ascension to the throne!
00:58:02May your
00:58:03majesty's divine power
00:58:04go forever
00:58:05and may your life
00:58:06match the heavens!
00:58:07Standing amid
00:58:08the golden light,
00:58:09Seraphana looked down
00:58:10at her subjects.
00:58:11She raised her hand
00:58:11slightly,
00:58:12feeling the terrifying
00:58:13magic capable of
00:58:14destroying heaven and earth,
00:58:15a cruel,
00:58:15cold smile
00:58:16playing on her lips.
00:58:17The submissive,
00:58:17lowly 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,
00:58:41Vanessa carried herself
00:58:41completely as the new mistress
00:58:43of 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 is
00:58:50replace all the decorations
00:58:51with the most luxurious
00:58:52gold silks.
00:58:54She 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 elf's
00:59:01winter ravens
00:59:01just to fashion
00:59:02a sweeping dress
00:59:03embedded with
00:59:04deep sea magic krills.
00:59:05Furthermore,
00:59:06Vanessa was arrogant
00:59:06and harsh to the point
00:59:07of cruelty
00:59:08to toward the servants
00:59:09and lower class elves
00:59:09of the kingdom.
00:59:11Mistress,
00:59:11this is the silver needle
00:59:12tea you requested.
00:59:13The temperature is just right.
00:59:15It's...
00:59:15Scalding,
00:59:16you useless wretch!
00:59:17Are you trying to ruin
00:59:18my face on purpose?
00:59:19Someone,
00:59:20strip her of her elfin badge
00:59:21and banish her entire family
00:59:22to hard lavery
00:59:23at the wither tower!
00:59:25Panic gripped the main manor
00:59:26and the lower tier elves
00:59:28filled the air with grievances.
00:59:29Sitting in his study,
00:59:30Ronan listened to the
00:59:31constant shouting,
00:59:32face slapping and crying
00:59:33from outside,
00:59:34his temples throbbing.
00:59:35Looking at the ledger
00:59:35submitted by the council
00:59:36of elders,
00:59:37which detailed Vanessa's
00:59:38waste of tens of thousands
00:59:40of magic crystals
00:59:40over the past few days,
00:59:41his face turned grim.
00:59:43In the past,
00:59:43when Serafina managed
00:59:44the household,
00:59:45the entire wind kingdom
00:59:46was orderly.
00:59:46She was always gentle,
00:59:48understanding 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 washing over him
01:00:01like a tidal wave.
01:00:03He began to desperately
01:00:04miss the woman
01:00:04who had always quietly
01:00:05waited for him.
01:00:06But now,
01:00:07no matter how much
01:00:08he searched the wind
01:00:09kingdom's territory,
01:00:10he could no longer
01:00:11find a single trace
01:00:12of Serafina.
01:00:15Yet,
01:00:15Ronan had no idea
01:00:16that while he was drowning
01:00:17in endless regret and agony,
01:00:18a dim storal lamp
01:00:19was burning in the most
01:00:20secluded subterranean 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 Oswin,
01:00:28the chief captain
01:00:29of the guards.
01:00:29Oswin's rough,
01:00:30calloused hands
01:00:31gripped her slender waist
01:00:32tightly as their breaths
01:00:33mingled in a display
01:00:34of immacity
01:00:34and wanton behavior.
01:00:35That suspicious
01:00:36Rhett Ronan
01:00:37stared at Jasper
01:00:38for a long time today.
01:00:39Could he have
01:00:40discovered something?
01:00:41My darling,
01:00:43with me here,
01:00:43what are you afraid of?
01:00:44Even if his suspicions
01:00:46lead him to test
01:00:47the bloodline,
01:00:47he will never find
01:00:48a problem.
01:00:49Don't forget,
01:00:49when he sent me
01:00:50to draw our son's blood,
01:00:51I swapped it with my own.
01:00:53That broken appraisal
01:00:54Askel of his
01:00:55will only show
01:00:55an absolute blood relative.
01:00:57Oswin pulled Vanessa
01:00:58closer,
01:00:59tilting her chin up proudly.
01:01:01If Ronan
01:01:01hadn't been heavily injured
01:01:02and unconscious
01:01:03during the war
01:01:04three years ago,
01:01:05allowing you
01:01:06to slip into my bed
01:01:07amid the chaos,
01:01:08how else would he
01:01:09have become
01:01:10this cheap father
01:01:11and felt guilty enough
01:01:12to search for you
01:01:13for three whole years?
01:01:14Vanessa'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 Ronan
01:01:20to pride himself
01:01:21on being deeply affectionate
01:01:22when he is actually
01:01:23a fool who is easily deceived?
01:01:25For three years,
01:01:26he trampled Seraphina,
01:01:27the legitimate mistress,
01:01:28into the dirt
01:01:29for the sake of Jasper
01:01:30and mine.
01:01:30Little does he know,
01:01:31the heir he personally
01:01:32cherishes is actually
01:01:34your child!
01:01:35A wild and greedy ambition
01:01:36as his flashed,
01:01:37his voice turned low
01:01:38and vicious.
01:01:39Ronan is completely
01:01:40distracted every day
01:01:41because of Seraph's
01:01:41disappears and the kingdom's
01:01:43fortune has mostly vanished
01:01:43for some reason.
01:01:44The Ascension Passage
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.
01:01:57His mind troubled.
01:01:58He 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.
01:02:03Looking 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
01:02:11all the way here.
01:02:12Just as he turned to leave,
01:02:13a stealthy figure
01:02:14carrying a bundle
01:02:15prepared to flee
01:02:15from inside the infirmary.
01:02:17It was the doctor
01:02:18from before.
01:02:18Ever since Seraphina
01:02:19Umut erased her holy name
01:02:20and left,
01:02:20causing half of the tree
01:02:21of 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
01:02:25and preparing to escape
01:02:26overnight.
01:02:27Ronan'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 Ronan's
01:02:38rage-distorted face
01:02:39and thinking of the rampant
01:02:40rumors about the primary
01:02:40mistress' disappearance
01:02:41and the sacred trees withering,
01:02:42the doctor's psychological
01:02:43defense collapsed completely.
01:02:44With even needing to use
01:02:45a soul-searching technique,
01:02:46he fell to his knees
01:02:47in terror,
01:02:48know-coding frantically
01:02:48as tears and muses
01:02:49stremmed down his face.
01:02:50Lord, spare my life!
01:02:51I deserve to die!
01:02:52I dare not hide it any longer!
01:02:54The primary mistress did not lie!
01:02:56She was not throwing a tamper
01:02:56fighting for effect!
01:02:57Ronan's heart skipped a beat,
01:02:59a profound sense of foreboding
01:03:00enveloping his entire body.
01:03:02Make yourself clear!
01:03:04What do you mean she didn't lie?!
01:03:05It was your daughter!
01:03:07Your daughter Iris
01:03:08didn't catch an ordinary chill at all!
01:03:10She was poisoned
01:03:11with the highly insidious
01:03:12soul-eating grass
01:03:13and her core had already
01:03:14begun to wither!
01:03:15Boom!
01:03:15The doctor's words
01:03:15exploded in Ronan's ears
01:03:16like a thundermist
01:03:17leaving his pail
01:03:18and make him sway on his feet.
01:03:19Ronan grabbed the terrified
01:03:21fleeing doctor by the collar,
01:03:23his eyes bloodshot
01:03:24like a cornered beast.
01:03:26Impossible!
01:03:27I checked her myself that day!
01:03:29Her breathing was steady
01:03:30and her temperature was normal!
01:03:32Even you personally
01:03:32diagnosed it as a common chill!
01:03:35How dabricate
01:03:36a poisoning story to me now!
01:03:39It was all fake!
01:03:41Madame Vanessa
01:03:42forced me to do it!
01:03:44It was her!
01:03:45She fed the little princess
01:03:46a forbidden illusion potion
01:03:47before you arrived!
01:03:49Forcibly creating
01:03:50a false appearance
01:03:52of hell!
01:03:53The doctor's words
01:03:54cut like knives
01:03:55tearing Ronan's
01:03:57self-rightless
01:03:58arrogance to pieces.
01:04:00Madame Vanessa
01:04:00bribed me
01:04:01and threatened
01:04:02my family's lives
01:04:02to maintain the illusion
01:04:03all to make you believe
01:04:05the primary mistress
01:04:05was just
01:04:06throwing a jealous fit
01:04:07so you would ignore
01:04:08the mother and daughter
01:04:09leaving the little princess
01:04:10to die from the poison!
01:04:12And...
01:04:12and that flask
01:04:13of sacred tree extract.
01:04:14Hearing the word
01:04:15sacred tree extract
01:04:16Ronan's body
01:04:17shook violently
01:04:18his face
01:04:19draining of all color.
01:04:21That spiritual medicine
01:04:21was given to the primary mistress
01:04:23out of my sudden
01:04:23flash of consciousness!
01:04:24It was not only
01:04:25an antidote to all poisons
01:04:26but the sole hope
01:04:27to save the little princess's life!
01:04:29Yet you...
01:04:29you detested
01:04:30the primary mistress
01:04:31and forcibly
01:04:32snatched that medicine away
01:04:33to secure the position
01:04:34of the perfectly
01:04:35healthy Jasper!
01:04:36Roman felt as if he'd been
01:04:38struck by lightning
01:04:38all strength
01:04:39instantly draining
01:04:40from his body
01:04:41boundless darkness
01:04:42and immense regret
01:04:43swallowed him
01:04:44like a tsunami
01:04:45he finally realized
01:04:46that Serafina
01:04:47had been telling
01:04:47the truth all along
01:04:48it was him
01:04:50he
01:04:50the father
01:04:51blinded by favoritism
01:04:53and interest
01:04:53who had personally
01:04:55snatched away
01:04:55his daughter's
01:04:56life-saving straw
01:04:57pushing his newborn
01:04:58child
01:04:59into the abyss
01:05:00of death!
01:05:01A spray of crimson blood
01:05:03erupted from Ronan's mouth
01:05:05as he collapsed
01:05:06onto his knees
01:05:06on the freezing stone pavement
01:05:08clutching his
01:05:09agonizingly painful chest
01:05:11letting out
01:05:12a desperate
01:05:12piercing streel
01:05:15Serafina!
01:05:16Iris!
01:05:18What have I done?
01:05:19What on earth
01:05:20have I done?
01:05:21Immense regret
01:05:22drove Ronan
01:05:22completely mad
01:05:23disregarding the blood
01:05:24on his lips
01:05:25he scrammed back
01:05:25to his feet
01:05:26and ran back
01:05:27to the main hall
01:05:27like a madman
01:05:28at this moment
01:05:29he no longer
01:05:31cared about
01:05:31supreme cooperation
01:05:32or reaching the peak
01:05:34he only wanted
01:05:35to find his wife
01:05:36and save his daughter's life
01:05:38search
01:05:39mobilize all forces
01:05:40of the wind kingdom
01:05:41search every inch of land
01:05:43and even if you have to
01:05:44hunt through
01:05:44the forbidden forest
01:05:45bring back the primary mistress
01:05:47and the princess
01:05:48go now
01:05:53however one day passed
01:05:55then two days
01:05:56and for three
01:05:57whole days and nights
01:05:58the elite high elves
01:05:59brought back nothing
01:06:00but the desperate news
01:06:01of no trace found
01:06:02Serafina seemed to have
01:06:04dissolved into the wind
01:06:05vanishing completely
01:06:06without a trace
01:06:07failing to find his wife
01:06:09Ronan's grief
01:06:10and self-blame
01:06:10gradually transformed
01:06:11into a towering
01:06:12Merlison test
01:06:13he finally thought
01:06:14of the instigator
01:06:15Vanessa
01:06:16Vanessa
01:06:17you vicious wretch
01:06:19I will tear you
01:06:20into ten thousand pieces
01:06:21gripping the great sword
01:06:22of the wind god
01:06:23that symbolized
01:06:24his kingdom's power
01:06:25he strode toward
01:06:26Vanessa's bedchamber
01:06:27brimming with
01:06:28murderous intent
01:06:29he wanted to settle
01:06:30the score
01:06:30with that evil woman
01:06:32and use the blood
01:06:33of Vanessa and her son
01:06:34to atone for his actions
01:06:35against his wife
01:06:36and daughter
01:06:36however
01:06:37when he reached
01:06:38the chamber
01:06:39he found it
01:06:40completely empty
01:06:42unleashing his divine sense
01:06:43he followed a faint
01:06:44trace of magic
01:06:45straight into the
01:06:46desolate forest
01:06:47behind the temple
01:06:49the moon was dark
01:06:50and the wind howled
01:06:51through the silence
01:06:51of the desolate forest
01:06:52behind the temple
01:06:53Ronan concealed
01:06:54his presence
01:06:54moving step by step
01:06:56into the shadow
01:06:56of the ancient trees
01:06:57with his great sword
01:06:58but before he could
01:06:58see clearly
01:06:59faint whispers
01:07:00and strugglings
01:07:00came from the thicket
01:07:01falling clearly
01:07:02into his ears
01:07:02slow down
01:07:03if that fool
01:07:04Ronan finds out
01:07:05we are dead
01:07:06what are you afraid of
01:07:07he is completely
01:07:08distracted every day
01:07:09because of that wretch
01:07:09running around the world
01:07:10like a madman
01:07:11how could he have time
01:07:12for us
01:07:12I've already coordinated
01:07:13with governor gamma
01:07:14while he will strip
01:07:15the treasury
01:07:15of all magic crystals
01:07:16and public funds
01:07:17tonight and run
01:07:17boom
01:07:18Ronan's mind
01:07:18went completely blank
01:07:19he knew these voices
01:07:20all too well
01:07:21one belonged to his
01:07:22chief captain of the guards
01:07:22Oswin
01:07:23and the other belonged
01:07:23to Vanessa White Moonlight
01:07:24first love
01:07:25he had cherished
01:07:25for three years
01:07:26Ronan trembled violently
01:07:27staring dead
01:07:27at the disheveled man
01:07:28and woman entwiled
01:07:29behind the tree
01:07:30speaking of which
01:07:31Ronan really is
01:07:32an absolute fool
01:07:33for the past three days
01:07:34he has been holding
01:07:34that fake bloodline report
01:07:35comforting himself
01:07:36that Jasper is his child
01:07:37completely unaware
01:07:38that the heir he raised
01:07:39with the kingdom's
01:07:40sacred medicine
01:07:40is actually your
01:07:41biological flesh and blood
01:07:43the truth slapped
01:07:44Ronan across the face
01:07:45shattering his remaining
01:07:46self-respect and pride
01:07:47it turned out
01:07:48he was not only the murderer
01:07:49who had personally pushed
01:07:50his biological daughter
01:07:51to her death
01:07:51but also the world's
01:07:52biggest fool

01:08:08Osgain and Vanessa
01:08:09screamed as they
01:08:10hit the ground
01:08:10when Vanessa saw Ronan
01:08:12who stood there
01:08:12with overwhelming ferocity
01:08:14she lost her wits
01:08:15in terror

01:08:29and pringzled
01:08:29several poisonous smoke bombs
01:08:30with a loud explosion
01:08:32a toxic mist filled the area
01:08:33by the time the storm
01:08:34blew the mist away
01:08:35the disheathled couple
01:08:36had all flooded the wind forest
01:08:37using their familiarity
01:08:38with the de ground
01:08:39as the cold wind blew
01:08:40he looked around
01:08:41at the empty surroundings
01:08:42appearing as though
01:08:43he had aged a hundred years
01:08:44Ronan fell to his knees
01:08:46his fingers digging
01:08:47into the dirt
01:08:48as he wept
01:08:49desperately
01:08:50like a beaten dog
01:08:52in the dead of night
01:08:54meanwhile
01:08:55inside the flawless
01:08:56radiant temple of life
01:08:57in the supreme sanctuary
01:08:58Iris had completely recovered
01:09:00she was now dressed in garments
01:09:02woven from the rarest golden silk
01:09:03and sitting in a cradle
01:09:04carved from 10,000 year old
01:09:06moonwa jiggling
01:09:07and blowing bubbles
01:09:07the supreme divine mark
01:09:09on her forehead
01:09:09flowed with brilliant colors
01:09:10exuding an incredibly
01:09:12noble bloodline
01:09:13standing beside the cradle
01:09:14Serafina gently played
01:09:16with her daughter
01:09:16her eyes filled only
01:09:18with maternal love
01:09:18as for the past
01:09:19humiliations and affection
01:09:21the high elfin king
01:09:22slowly walked over
01:09:23to his daughter
01:09:23looking at his reborn
01:09:25granddaughter with affection
01:09:26he then turned a serious
01:09:27gaze toward Serafina
01:09:28my daughter
01:09:29I have already ordered
01:09:30a complete block out
01:09:31against all past
01:09:33complications
01:09:33with the wind kingdom
01:09:34now that your bloodline
01:09:36has fully awakened
01:09:37and the supreme natural
01:09:38wings have grown
01:09:39behind your back
01:09:40it is time for you
01:09:41to assume your
01:09:42rightful responsibilities
01:09:43Serafina withdrawed
01:09:44her hand
01:09:45and turned to face
01:09:45her father
01:09:46her gaze calm
01:09:47and instaurative
01:09:47completely to blind
01:09:48of mortal weakness
01:09:49father I understand
01:09:50romantic attachments
01:09:52are nothing but
01:09:52a self-inflicted trap
01:09:54only supreme power
01:09:55can allow me
01:09:56to control my destiny
01:09:57and protect my iris
01:09:58for a lifetime of peace
01:10:00the father laughed
01:10:01with relief
01:10:01and immediately announced
01:10:03good
01:10:03I have already issued
01:10:05a decree to all kingdoms

01:10:11high elfin queen
01:10:12of our supreme sanctuary
01:10:13in 10,000 years
01:10:15meanwhile
01:10:15the wind kingdom
01:10:16far at the edge
01:10:17of the continent
01:10:18had fallen into
01:10:19a perilous situation
01:10:19due to vanessa
01:10:20and oswin's betrayal
01:10:21and thief of the funds
01:10:22a fierce internal conflict
01:10:24erupted within the kingdom
01:10:25worse still
01:10:26because Serafina
01:10:26had erased her holy name
01:10:27and severed
01:10:28the tree of life withered
01:10:29causing the kingdom's
01:10:30overall magic
01:10:30to rapidly decline
01:10:31and their barrier to
01:10:32Romans sat on his
01:10:33broken throne
01:10:34emaciated and covered
01:10:35in stubble
01:10:36showing none of his
01:10:37past glory as a lord

01:11:01he had no heart
01:11:02to manage the kingdom's
01:11:03mundane affairs
01:11:04because he knew

01:21:33deaf
01:21:33to
01:21:33these
01:21:33mocks
01:21:34merely
01:21:34clutching
01:21:35a tattered cloth doll
01:21:36tightly to his chest
01:21:37a toy he had fashioned for Iris from memory
01:21:39since his magic was entirely gone
01:21:41his appearance was aging at a visible rate
01:21:44his long hair turning into dry white strands
01:21:46whenever the harsh alcohol hit his throat
01:21:49he would begin to self-harm
01:21:51he used sharp stones
01:21:53to carve the name Seraphina
01:21:55deeply into his arms
01:21:57drawing blood
01:21:58yet it could not stop the splitting pain in his chest
01:22:16the once high and mighty king had ultimately transformed into a mentally
01:22:20degranged madman fighting with wild dogs for food in the ruins death would be a merciful
01:22:25release for him
01:22:26and remaining conscious to endure this life sentence of regret
01:22:29was his ultimate punishment
01:22:32as for Jasper
01:22:33the three-year-old fake he who had been pampered by the entire kingdom
01:22:36he was
01:22:37after all
01:22:38an innocent
01:22:39and ignorant child
01:22:40who did not understand the greed and sins of adults
01:22:42with the deaths of Vanair and Osquin
01:22:43the vanity
01:22:44privileges
01:22:45and flambrity
01:22:45that had once around him
01:22:46him vanished overnight
01:22:47once the truth of the royal bloodline array spread
01:22:49he was no longer the high and mighty young master
01:22:52and the silver of magic he had forced out by stealing iris sacred tree extract
01:22:55completely withered due to a lack of subsequent nourishment
01:22:57the forged mark on his forehead disappeared
01:22:59and he was reduced to a perfectly ordinary mediocre child
01:23:04take him away
01:23:06let him become an ordinary farming child at the border
01:23:10this ruin of the wind kingdom should not retain a bloodline of sin
01:23:16father
01:23:17mother
01:23:19where did you go
01:23:25Jasper will be good from now at once
01:23:30he no longer had a luxurious golden cradle
01:23:32or a crowd of attendants surrounding him
01:23:34he was sent to a remote village far from power struggles
01:23:37becoming an ordinary orphan who knew nothing of his birth parents
01:23:41perhaps staying far away from the grievers here
01:23:45the coronation ceremony lasted for seven days
01:23:48before finally came to a successful conclusion
01:23:50seraphina stood atop the highest altar of the supreme sanctuary
01:23:53with past severing her ties
01:23:54completely submission
01:23:56weakness
01:23:56and ridiculous mortal affection
01:23:58to radiate in natural wings behind her back over all the world
01:24:01and by her side she held the hand of a beautiful smiling young girl
01:24:04iris had completely recovered
01:24:05not only was the supreme bloodline within her body fully awakened
01:24:08but her large eyes shone as brightly as a galaxy
01:24:10shaking her little head
01:24:11she held seraph onto the divine throne
01:24:12that symbolized the highest power of the elfin world
01:24:14amid the mountain-shattering worship of all living being
01:24:17mother
01:24:18it's so beautiful here
01:24:20will anyone dare to bully us from now on?
01:24:24seraphina looked down
01:24:25gently stroking the brilliant supreme golden mark on her forehead
01:24:29her eyes filled with maternal resolve
01:24:33no my darling
01:24:34from this day forward
01:24:35mother will protect you
01:24:36and no one will ever be able to harm you in the slightest
01:24:39mother and daughter sat side by side upon the divine throne
01:24:41beneath their feet lay the vast prospering territory of the elven royal family
01:24:44the empress who had cast aside romantic attachments
01:24:47now stood alone in her divinity
01:24:48ruling over the sanctuary
01:24:49and beginning a legendary era that belonged entirely to them
