00:00This familiar scene is exactly the same as in the previous life.
00:03The sky outside turned the color of a wound.
00:06A Lycan lord, in his full power, in human form.
00:09But how did the person in his arms become my sister?
00:11In my previous life, on the day of the sacred bonding rite,
00:15my sister chose the phoenix.
00:16She left the bear shifter, the one nobody wanted.
00:19It was fate.
00:21A cast off for a beast.
00:23Instead, I saved a Lycan lord by accident.
00:26He took me as his queen.
00:27After the bonding, I bore five heirs for the Lycan bloodline,
00:31a clan that had gone generations without children.
00:33I became a legend across the realm beyond.
00:35My sister, bonded to the phoenix, was cast out for barrenness.
00:39I came home with my youngest.
00:41My sister poisoned my bowl.
00:43Me and my child both.
00:50When I woke, it was the day of the rite again.
00:54Everyone present is a worthy son of their bloodline.
00:58Choose freely.
00:59The hall filled with glances.
01:00With quiet negotiations between bodies and bloodlines.
01:03I didn't want any of it.
01:05In my last life, childbirth had nearly killed me.
01:07I wasn't doing it again.
01:09I stood alone.
01:10Then the doors blew open.
01:11Time returns to the present.
01:13And for some reason, my sister has taken my husband from my previous life.
01:19Vivienne saved my life.
01:21From this day forward, she is my true mate.
01:23A Lycan lord choosing one of ours.
01:25Choosing her as first and only.
01:27It hadn't happened in living memory.
01:29I knew then.
01:30She'd been reborn too.
01:32Now I looked at her.
01:33Draped against the Lycan lord.
01:35Already victorious.
01:36She thought she'd won.
01:37She hadn't thought through what it would cost her.
01:40Lycan lords are of the fire element.
01:42Their mates sleep in fire.
01:44Eat fire-aspected food.
01:45For a bloodline like ours.
01:47Cold-aspected by nature.
01:49That's not a marriage.
01:50It's a slow execution.
01:52Last time, I had no choice but to pretend to like it.
01:55Every day.
01:56I smiled through the sacred fire walks.
01:58Through the meals that felt like swallowing coals.
02:01By the time I was pregnant, my core was already cracked.
02:04The children drew what was left.
02:06Vivienne was cold-aspected too.
02:08She just didn't know what she'd agreed to yet.
02:10The whole heat celebrated.
02:12Every unmated girl in the order delayed her own bonding to help prepare Vivienne's.
02:17The gift list ran ten feet long.
02:19The high lord nearly emptied the sanctuary's vaults.
02:22I was the only unmated woman left.
02:24That made me the obvious choice for handmaid.
02:27Vivienne stood over me and smiled.
02:29Before you were the elder, I deferred to you.
02:32How does this feel, sister?
02:34I said nothing.
02:35Ha!
02:36That look.
02:38You'll get used to it.
02:39The high lord has already agreed.
02:40You belong to me now.
02:42I'll hit you when I want.
02:43Praise you when I want.
02:45You have no say.
02:46Start learning.
02:48A courier arrived from the Lycan lord.
02:50A red and gold cloak.
02:52Light as feathers.
02:53Fire resistant.
02:54Enchanted for speed.
02:56Vivienne touched it with both hands.
02:58I knew that cloak.
02:59For fire-aspected bloodlines, it was a treasure.
03:02For cold-aspected bloodlines, it was a punishment.
03:05I'd worn it every day of my first marriage.
03:08It had carved away at my core for years.
03:11Vivienne would find that out eventually.
03:12Then a girl came running.
03:14Fire on the back mountain!
03:16What an awful omen.
03:17Today of all days.
03:18I didn't wait.
03:19I ran.
03:20The mountain was burning hard when I arrived.
03:23Black smoke.
03:24Screaming from inside the tree line.
03:26The elders stood at the edge and wouldn't move.
03:28Your sister, that fire belongs to a Lycan lord.
03:31We interfere, we offend him.
03:33Your sister's bonding is today.
03:34Don't make trouble.
03:35The rank valenties.
03:38I looked at him for a long moment.
03:40Then I went in.
03:42The smoke blinded me fast.
03:44The fire took my fur.
03:45But I was cold-aspected.
03:47Wherever I moved, frost spread behind me.
03:50It slowed the flames enough to matter.
03:54But I can't stop this fire with my own strength.
03:57I remembered what my foster mother taught me.
04:00Clear a line.
04:01Deny the fire somewhere to go.
04:02I shifted to full form and called out.
04:05Wolf.
04:06Eagle.
04:07Tiger.
04:07Bear.
04:08They came.
04:09They carried ice-hardened vessels in their jaws.
04:12An elephant used its trunk.
04:14Ants and mantises worked the fire breaks.
04:16We were losing.
04:17Then we weren't.
04:18Then the mountains shook.
04:20The ground split open.
04:21A dragon came out of it.
04:23Black.
04:24Ancient.
04:24Large enough to block the sun.
04:27He opened it up and it rained.
04:29The fire died.
04:30The dragon's voice didn't come from one direction.
04:33It came from everywhere.
04:35This mountain is mine.
04:38Who lit it?
04:39The elders said nothing.
04:40A thousand years in this valley.
04:42And nobody had thought to check whether something older already lived here.
04:45Then Vivienne pointed at me.
04:47Look at her.
04:47Ash everywhere.
04:48Burned fur.
04:49It had to be her.
04:51Every eye turned.
04:52Charred.
04:53Bleeding in two places.
04:54The same hands that had just spent an hour fighting the fire.
04:57I was certain someone would say it.
04:59Any of them.
04:59They'd all see me run in.
05:01The elder looked at me for a long time.
05:03Then he knelt.
05:06The dragon's sovereign.
05:07Our wayward daughter did this.
05:09She is yours to punish.
05:10We offer her freely.
05:12I stood still.
05:13Not one of them spoke for me.
05:16I had bent myself in half for these people in my last life.
05:19I had burned from the inside out.
05:22Carrying children for a clan that wasn't mine.
05:24For a man who never once made me warm.
05:27I'd done it for them.
05:28Kept them safe.
05:29Kept them proud.
05:30And now they were handing me to a dragon.
05:32To buy themselves a quite.
05:34The fire was liacon.
05:35Everyone here knows that.
05:36I'm cul-de-sected.
05:37How would I produce sacred flame?
05:38You're my handmaid.
05:39You had access to my husband's fire tokens.
05:41Easy enough to steal a spark.
05:42If I started it, why did I try to stop it?
05:44To look innocent.
05:45What do I have to gain?
05:47Any of it.
05:48What exactly do you think I wanted?
05:50Mara, just admit it.
05:52I'm done with this covenant.
05:53All every debt between us is settled.
05:55Enough.
05:56The girl comes with me.
05:57Whatever she is to you, she isn't anymore.
05:59When I opened them, I was somewhere else.
06:02Torchlight.
06:03Stone.
06:04A ceiling so high I couldn't see the end of it.
06:07He was in human form.
06:08Black robes edged in gold.
06:10He sat like someone who had never once needed anything from anyone.
06:14He was watching me with something almost like amusement.
06:17He said.
06:18Go ahead.
06:19Say what you want to say.
06:20You knew.
06:21You knew the whole time what happened.
06:23Why play along with them?
06:25Because you needed a reason to leave.
06:27And my palace is considerably more comfortable than a foxhole.
06:30I thought you might prefer it.
06:31I thought about what he'd said.
06:33In my last life, he had sent me a healing stone during my labor.
06:37Only later did I understand.
06:38The mountain was his.
06:40I had defended it.
06:41He remembered.
06:42Thank you, my lord.
06:44I'll serve faithfully.
06:45Don't do it again.
06:46He looked satisfied.
06:48Do what?
06:49Throw yourself at people who aren't worth it.
06:51He tilted his head.
06:53Get dressed.
06:54We're going to watch the bonding ceremony.
06:57He handed me a gown.
06:58Black, covered with shimmering scales.
07:01I put it on and stood beside him, and we looked like we matched.
07:04I felt my face go warm without meaning to.
07:07The ceremony hall blazed with firelight.
07:09Vivienne walked the red carpet on the Lycan Lord's arm.
07:13She looked extraordinary.
07:14She always did.
07:16Then they reached the threshold.
07:17Every Lycan bonding began the same way.
07:20The new mate had to walk a path of sacred embers.
07:23The Lycan Lord stepped onto the embers without pausing.
07:26For him, it was nothing.
07:28Vivienne stopped cold.
07:29People noticed.
07:30He pulled her toward the embers.
07:32She dug in.
07:33The hall went quiet in that particular way that means everyone is watching,
07:37while pretending not to.
07:38He leaned in and said something low and sharp.
07:42She went white.
07:43Then she walked.
07:44The sound when the fire touched her was something I would remember.
07:48She made it through.
07:50Barely.
07:50She knelt before the clan elder with shaking hands,
07:53and held a cup of tea for half an hour,
07:55before he finally took it.
07:56After the ceremony, in the corridor outside.
07:59No mate in our head have insulted the sacred fire at her own binding.
08:04Not one.
08:05You were the first.
08:07Congratulations.
08:08He walked.
08:09Don't wait up.
08:10I had turned to leave when my foot landed on a dry branch.
08:14Vivienne spun.
08:15How are you here?
08:16Her face twisted.
08:17She lunged.
08:18Her feet, still burned, betrayed her.
08:21She went down hard.
08:22The dragon should have killed you.
08:24I touched the fabric of my new gown.
08:27He's fair-minded.
08:28He doesn't punish the innocent.
08:29I looked at her.
08:30I'm his now.
08:32You can't touch me.
08:33She grabbed my throat.
08:35Her nails drew blood.
08:37You're lying.
08:38If he wanted you, he'd be here.
08:40He wouldn't leave you alone.
08:42One more inch, and she'd have managed it.
08:44I'll kill you right now, and no one will care.
08:47The air moved.
08:48Vivienne flew sideways.
08:50She hit the wall hard enough to cough blood.
08:53A hand settled at my waist.
08:55Warm.
08:56Steady.
08:57Power moving through it, like current.
08:59The dragon sovereign said pleasantly.
09:01I'm her intended.
09:03You can call me Aldric.
09:04Or dragon sovereign.
09:06Either works.
09:08Vivienne stared at him.
09:10You can't.
09:10She has no standing.
09:12She's nothing.
09:13The Lycan Lord appeared in the doorway.
09:15Took one look at the dragon sovereign.
09:17Your grace.
09:19I apologize for my mate's behavior.
09:21Today, of all days, I hope you'll forgive it.
09:24Your mate could use managing.
09:26The dragon sovereign glanced back at Vivienne.
09:29Then he took my arm, and we left.
09:32The next morning, his household was buzzing.
09:35The Lycan Lord's new bride had lost favor on her wedding night.
09:38She'd insulted the sacred fire.
09:39He'd taken a sparrow shifter servant to his bed, and elevated her to second mate.
09:44Vivienne had locked herself in her chambers.
09:46That news traveled fast.
09:48I found a mineral spring in the upper realm.
09:50I went every night for a month.
09:52One night I arrived and heard laughter.
09:54I looked.
09:55Then I wished I hadn't.
09:56Vivienne was in the water.
09:58With two men.
09:59Two dragon shifters.
10:00Junior officers by the look of them.
10:02I left quietly.
10:03The heat didn't go away.
10:05I wandered the grounds trying to walk it off.
10:07Aldric was outside his own chambers.
10:09Not sleeping either.
10:10He looked like the night had gotten into him.
10:12Dragonkind had their own rhythms.
10:14Their own seasons.
10:15I looked at him for a moment.
10:17Then I made a decision.
10:18I used the oldest skill our bloodline carried.
10:21He would experience it as a dream.
10:23He wouldn't remember clearly.
10:26You're too thin.
10:27I don't know how you're holding yourself up.
10:28His skin against mine carried a faint, natural coolness.
10:32Like stone in a river.
10:34It moved through me like relief.
10:52I'd planned to clear the memory.
10:53He seemed not to have noticed.
10:55Or not to care.
10:56Then my body reminded me of something.
10:58I recognized the feeling immediately.
11:00I was pregnant.
11:02Around the same time.
11:03So was Vivienne.
11:04The Lycan lord's servants spread it everywhere.
11:07Seven heirs expected.
11:08A miracle for a clan that hadn't produced children in generations.
11:11The keep rejoiced.
11:13Even Aldric's household received the announcement.
11:15I thought about those two men in the spring.
11:17I hoped for her sake, she knew what she was carrying.
11:20She came to see me a few weeks later, surrounded by attendants.
11:23She looked radiant.
11:25She always found a way to look radiant.
11:27She pressed her hand to my stomach.
11:29Then looked at my broom.
11:30I thought you'd found yourself a dragon sovereign.
11:32Looks like you're still sweeping floors.
11:34I'm going to be named holy sovereign of the Lycan clan.
11:36First woman in a thousand years to carry their heirs.
11:39The clan elder promised.
11:41Once these children come, I'll have everything.
11:43You should stay away from my hall once I'm settled.
11:46Don't embarrass yourself pretending we're still family.
11:49She turned.
11:50With a gesture, she scattered dead leaves across the path I'd just cleaned.
11:54Then Aldric appeared.
11:55The leaves reversed direction and hit Vivian in the face.
11:59My household staff aren't yours to entertain yourself with.
12:03I'm carrying the Lyland Lord's A's!
12:06You wouldn't dare hurt me!
12:07My wife is also expecting.
12:10You disrespect her!
12:12I haven't begun to address that yet!
12:14You!
12:15You have no bond!
12:16No ceremony!
12:17No standing!
12:18You're a hollowborn with a child and no covenant!
12:24Mara became my wife before heaven and earth witnessed it.
12:28This stone is my Lyne's oldest heirloom.
12:30It belongs to her now.
12:32She is my mate in full.
12:35A messenger arrived from the High Court.
12:37Mara of the Holy Maiden Bloodline,
12:39recognized for valor in defense of a sacred site,
12:41is hereby elevated to Holy Sovereign.
12:44Her bonding to the Dragon Sovereign Aldric is sanctioned and recorded.
12:47Let it be so!
12:48Vivian's eyes filled.
12:50She cried silently, and the tears were not the soft kind.
12:53The Lycan Lord arrived shortly after.
12:55Dragon Sovereign, I apologize.
12:58The pregnancy is affecting her temperament.
12:59Aldric looked at her one last time.
13:01She could use a firmer hand.
13:03Then he brought me home.
13:06That night.
13:08Do you remember it?
13:10My gift of recall isn't something your bloodline's arts can touch.
13:13You were never dreaming either.
13:15I wanted you.
13:17I've wanted you since I watched you fight a sacred fire to save animals that weren't yours,
13:22and people who didn't deserve it.
13:24I took you to my bed.
13:26I owe you a name for it.
13:28A name isn't enough.
13:29So I owe you the formal bond.
13:31Witnessed by heaven and earth.
13:33And every treasure in my line.
13:35And the largest bonding celebration the realm has seen in a century.
13:39You'll have all of it.
13:41After the children come, when you're ready.
13:44But you are mine, Mara.
13:48That part was settled the moment I chose it.
13:50I held on to him.
13:51And for the first time since waking into this second life.
13:54I didn't have to hold myself together.
13:56My body moved through the pregnancy with almost uncanny ease.
13:59I was tired.
14:00And hungry for strange things.
14:02And I slept too long.
14:03Vivian's nights were another matter.
14:05She screamed through them.
14:06Every night.
14:07Longer.
14:08The Lycan Lord put a silencing ward around her wing.
14:11It didn't reach the gossip.
14:12They sent fire aspected tonics.
14:14Womb strengthening remedies.
14:16All of it intensified the fire.
14:18None of it helped the mother.
14:19She came to show off.
14:21Still.
14:21By the time I saw her, she was enormous.
14:24Her face had hollowed out.
14:25Her hands and feet were swollen.
14:27She moved like it hurt.
14:28I took her arm before she fell.
14:30You shouldn't be walking around like this.
14:32She shook me off.
14:33My husband says movement makes labor easier.
14:36He knows more about this than you do.
14:38He knows Lycan physiology.
14:40That's not the same thing.
14:41She looked at me with complete contempt.
14:43You're jealous.
14:44You've got that cold little belly.
14:46And you know I've won.
14:49Seven heirs!
14:51Seven!
14:51What do you have?
14:53One.
14:56I'm going to be holy sovereign of the most ancient shifter bloodline in the realm.
15:00My children will be legends.
15:02Yours will be a footnote.
15:04She used her power to scatter leaves across my clean steps on the way out.
15:08I watched her go.
15:09Vivian.
15:10What's going to happen when those children arrive?
15:13And none of them are what anyone's expecting?
15:16Vivian went into labor before me.
15:18I brought snacks and found a good position near the back.
15:20She'd been sending celebration sweets to every household in the upper realm since she announced the pregnancy.
15:26Half the realm had shown up to witness the arrival of the Lycan clan's first heirs in a thousand years.
15:32The Lycan lord paced outside.
15:34His entire extended family had come in.
15:36The High Court had sent observers.
15:38They weren't there to congratulate anyone.
15:40They were there to record.
15:42I spotted the two dragon shifters from the spring.
15:44Both very still.
15:46Vivian screamed from midday to sunset.
15:48Then she went quiet.
15:49The crowd held its breath.
15:51The attending midwife came out first.
15:53Then six attendants behind her.
15:55One after another.
15:56Seven children.
15:57The Lycan lord went to look.
15:59He picked up the first one.
16:00It shifted in his hands.
16:02Black scales.
16:03His face had gone very wrong.
16:05What is this?
16:06My lord.
16:06Please.
16:07Don't.
16:08The Lycan lord looked at him.
16:09Then at the child.
16:11Then back.
16:11He understood.
16:12He picked up the next five.
16:14One by one.
16:15His hands were shaking by the third.
16:17None of them were Lycan.
16:19He looked up at the crowd.
16:21Hundreds of witnesses.
16:22The High Court observers with their recording stones.
16:25Then six more men stepped forward from different directions.
16:28Each one claiming a child.
16:30The seventh child was half sparrow.
16:32The same bloodline as the servant Vivian had despised enough to betray on purpose.
16:37The crowd didn't make any sound for a long moment.
16:40I found a clay urn by the back door.
16:42Inside was.
16:43Let's call it a person.
16:44Her whole body was stuffed in that urn like a captured seal.
16:47She had no arms or legs.
16:48Her hair tangled in knots.
16:49Face covered in filth.
16:51I was about to turn away.
16:52But right at that moment.
16:53I saw the back of her neck.
16:55There it was.
16:55The same birthmark as my daughter's.
16:58It hit me like a bolt from the blue.
17:00Because I had just received a letter from her.
17:02Saying she was living happily with House Ashburn.
17:05I dropped the potion bowl.
17:07And called my top undead knight.
17:10Gordon come to me quickly.
17:11Your subordinate is here.
17:13Awaiting your orders master.
17:15Go to Ashenhold and bring back the mistress.
17:18Bring them back alive or.
17:20Bring them back dead.
17:23My lady.
17:24This month's turnover is as follows.
17:26Mainly from the magic material trade.
17:31My lady.
17:33It's terrible.
17:34The back door.
17:35Speak clearly.
17:36What frightened you?
17:37A jar.
17:38A big earthen jar.
17:40Under the back door steps.
17:41You'd better not look.
17:42It's too scary.
17:43At the gate of my mountain city.
17:46There's nothing I can't see.
17:47A jar beneath the steps.
17:50With oozing blood.
17:51It's mouth wrapped in rags.
17:56Take off the rag.
17:58Inside lies a broken wretch.
17:59With all limbs severed.
18:01And body covered in wounds.
18:08The back door.
18:19The back door.
18:30And body covered in our eyes.
18:32The back door.
18:32What if she's cursed?
18:34I said, take her back.
18:40My lady, give up.
18:42Her broken bones were cursed with bone shattering spell, even the top bone regeneration spell
18:46can't heal her.
18:48Her tongue is destroyed, she can't speak forever, and her life is almost gone.
18:53Even if she can't be saved, we must try.
18:55Use the best potions to keep her alive.
18:57Go to my private pharmacy and get Phoenix Tears and Silverhorn Beast Blood.
19:00My lady, we can't waste such rare treasures like this.
19:04Do as I say.
19:11In the vast orchard of the universe, planets are ripe, juicy fruits waiting to be discovered.
19:19My lady, good news from Ash's castle.
19:22The mistress wrote in person, say the young master is healthy.
19:28Gordon, come to me quickly.
19:30Your subordinate is here, awaiting your orders, master.
19:33Go to Ash and Hold and bring back the mistress.
19:36Bring them back alive or bring them back dead.
19:44Cedric acted swiftly.
19:45Within two hours, he arrived at Ashford with his men, lying that the matriarch of the Blackstone
19:50family was on the verge of death and took the woman away before Lord Aldric returned.
19:58Mother!
20:02Mother!
20:04Mother!
20:05Mother!
20:05Mother, why are you so ill?
20:08You didn't send someone to tell me!
20:10I'm not ill.
20:14I just missed you.
20:18Mother!
20:18You scared me to death!
20:21I thought you were really...
20:26You're missing me.
20:27Just to send her anyone to tell me why.
20:30I bet you and just myself are to alarm the alarm too.
20:35How is your recovery after giving birth?
20:39Thank you for your concern, Mother.
20:41There was some misty anymore to do.
20:43It just hurt a lot.
20:45I never want to give birth again.
20:47Take off your outer garment.
20:50Mother?
20:51Let me see the birthmark on your neck.
20:57When she took off her clothes, I found out her birthmark was fake.
21:00Who would dare plot against my daughter?
21:02I will uncover them all and make them pay a hundredfold.
21:05Perhaps giving birth has weakened you.
21:07I told lies.
21:08Even the birthmark has faded.
21:11Only to uncover who was plotting against my daughter.
21:15It's good to have you back.
21:18During dinner, I wanted to test whether she was my real daughter or an imposter.
21:23Mmm.
21:25The chef's skill is still excellent.
21:27Do you remember the origin of this moon-watching soup?
21:32Of course I remember.
21:35When I was a child, I liked to watch the moon at night.
21:39You made this soup to keep me warm.
21:41You even gave it such a nice name.
21:44I finally confirmed she was an imposter.
21:46Killing intent surged in me at once.
21:48Yet I held it back to find the ones behind this.
21:52Yes.
21:53You remember everything.
21:55You imposter who stole my daughter's place.
21:59What did you and your husband Raymond do to my daughter?
22:04I will make you pay a thousand times.
22:08Ten thousand times.
22:13The shops of Wontong Magic Chamber are in good locations.
22:18Why not put them under my name as private property?
22:21As you wish.
22:23You are so kind, Mother.
22:28The roses are not energetic enough.
22:30Yes, my lady.
22:31The black tea is not at the right temperature.
22:34I'm sorry, lady.
22:37Kneel there for an hour as punishment.
22:42The lady seems to be getting muddled in her old age.
22:44She indulges her daughter too much.
22:48I really don't understand her choice.
22:55The lady looks more beautiful than flowers.
22:58Of course I do.
23:02Come with me.
23:03I'll show you something.
23:06What is it, Mother?
23:14It's getting darker and darker here.
23:17What place is this?
23:18It's dirty and smelly.
23:20It's dirty.
23:26Hurry up, mother.опрос
23:36of quote, Look
23:45at her.
23:46how poor she is.
24:10Do you know her?
24:12No, I don't.
24:14How could I know such a monster?
24:17I'm unwell.
24:18I need to go back to rest.
24:20The fake daughter fled in terror
24:22without daring to look back.
24:23I will hunt every single one of you down.
24:33Isabelle, don't be afraid.
24:35Mother is here.
24:38No one who hurt you will get away.
24:40I love you.
26:12I heard her ladyship has been resting in the mountain city for days.
26:16Thank you for your thoughtfulness, Lord Raymond.
26:18But she caught a cold and is unaccustomed to the climate, so she's not fit to move.
26:22Is that so?
26:23I heard there's something unclean in your mansion that scared her ladyship?
26:26You're joking, Lord Raymond.
26:27The Blackstone family has operated for generations receiving guests.
26:31There's nothing unclean here.
26:32Instead, you, as the Lord's brother, ignore clan affairs and surround an allied family's mountain city with guards?
26:37If this gets out, I'm afraid it will violate the teachings of the Alliance.
26:40Eleanor, I respect you as an elder, so I've been tolerating you repeatedly.
26:46You'd better be sensible and hand over her ladyship immediately!
26:59Lord Raymond, do you know where the fleets of my Wontong Magic Chamber of Commerce are now?
27:05The fleets are on the river heading south, carrying 30 carts of magic crystals and dragon crystal weapons.
27:10If these supplies arrive at the northern border on time early next month, your brother the Lord will achieve great
27:15marnite.
27:15My boat shin are rough men.
27:17They only recognize me as their boss.
27:19They said, if something happens to me, they'll be uneasy and their hands will shake.
27:25The ship carrying your future might sink.
27:28Mother-in-law, take care of yourself.
27:31Please tell Lord Raymond.
27:34The cerny of money he deposited in my Wontong Yinghong.
27:37For you, Iro Lefer, the gift money.
27:40I won't take Isin Bays of Lias.
27:43It's time to send a picket.
27:48Let's not bring them back dead.
28:00This war is now led by me.
28:02Raymond and Cecily were cornered by me.
28:05They planned to kill me off.
28:07Late at night, faint clashes and magic explosions echoed from the tower.
28:11I rose at once, only to find Cedric had already left.
28:15I stayed calm and waited inside.
28:17The tower was covered with my hidden spells and guards, and I knew Cedric would handle it all.
28:22Soon he returned, his horse hooves thudding on stone, reeking faintly of blood and sulfur.
28:30My lady, it's all done.
28:33There were twelve assassins, eleven dead and one alive.
28:39The survivor has been taken to the dungeon.
28:41Intensicate.
28:46I want to know who sent them.
28:59We are Raymond Ash's private soldiers and dead men.
29:04Ma'am Morris, besides Cecily, gave us the order.
29:08Clean it up completely.
29:11Use all of Vanton's intelligence network to investigate.
29:15Investigate Cecily's background, everything from her birth.
29:19Yes.
29:21Investigate everyone around my daughter Isabella before and after her marriage.
29:32Cecilia, a distant fallen branch of the Blackstone family.
29:36Her parents were infracted gamblers, died young.
29:40She grew up dependent on others, full of contempt.
29:48Cecilia secretly married Raymond Ash five years ago.
29:52Their marriage was unknown.
29:54Raymond needed her to be unmarried to infiltrate the two families.
29:57Raymond Ash, the gentle younger brother of the Patriarch,
30:00is secretly hunting for the lost ancient dragon soul horn of the Ash family.
30:05Legend says only the one who blows the horn can command all the dragons of the Ash family.
30:14The horn's approval requires not only bloodline, but also a witch with the Crescent Sky Seal as the sacrifice guide.
30:20The Crescent birthmark on the back of Isabelle's neck is the Semisic Sky Seal.
30:25An extremely rare, innate and magic mark.
30:29Raymond set this vicious trap just for this mark.
30:32He let Cecilia sneak into Blackstone City, steal Isabelle's habits and birthmark,
30:36then kidnapped her, turned her into a selfie and imprisoned her.
30:39Finally, let Cecilia pretend to be Isabelle to marry Aldrich, the Patriarch,
30:43to steal the dragon soul horn from inside.
30:51And Cecilia, for her husband's ambition,
30:54is willing to sacrifice herself to be another man's wife.
31:00Me, memory is awakened.
31:03Me remembered.
31:05There was indeed such a niece.
31:10My family suffered a disaster.
31:13I have nowhere to go.
31:14Please take me in, madam.
31:16I looked at Raid and you and Nur Sansa the Wolf and
31:19as changing to Goldlight.
31:27Aunt Eleanor, your tea.
31:29She was so kind to Cecilia.
31:31Treated her as real family.
31:33Shared everything good with her.
31:35Me thought me just took in a poor homeless girl.
31:37But me let a most vicious white-eyed wolf into the house.
31:40Me can't imagine how painful and desperate Isabelle was
31:43when was betrayed and hurt by her most trusted sister.
31:47Me.
31:52Copy a thousand copies and send them to the intelligence network.
31:57Find everyone who has seen this girl.
32:13I used to ride the young dragon at home and fell off.
32:18The ancient epic tells of endless sorrow and regret.
32:27The moon rises above the sea.
32:38Isabelle, it's Mother.
32:39Mother is here.
32:40Take your time.
32:42Write down what you want to tell me.
32:59I know I will find the truth.
33:03The revenge has just begun.
33:05Let go of me!
33:06You dogs!
33:07Do you know who I am?
33:08I will kill you all!
33:10Press her down in front of the bed!
33:16Look carefully.
33:18Look again.
33:30Sis.
33:30Sister.
33:32Sister.
33:38Your disguise is broken.
33:40Take her down and serve her well.
33:46No one is allowed to let her step out of the tower without my permission.
33:50No one is allowed to contact her.
33:58Her psychological defense has collapsed.
34:00Don't worry.
34:02I will avenge you.
34:06Raymond and Cecile will pay for what they did.
34:12I will make them suffer.
34:14Rest well.
34:15I will be with you.
34:24I will protect you forever.
34:30The truth will be revealed soon.
34:35My revenge has only just begun.
34:56Elinor!
34:57Eleanor!
34:57You madwoman!
34:58How dare you imprison me!
35:14Raymond won't let you get away
35:16Cecily
35:1722 years old
35:19Born into a declining branch in the north
35:26Orphaned
35:26Sold to an opera troupe at 5
35:28Fled at 10
35:305 years ago
35:31You secretly married Raymond Ash
35:33No one knew about it
35:38Because Raymond needed you
35:39To approach my Blackstone family
35:41As an unmarried woman
35:43At 18
35:44You entered Blackstone Castle
35:47Under the pretense of visiting relatives
35:51My daughter Isabel treated you
35:53Like a sister
35:54But you were cruel
35:56And greedy
35:572 years ago
35:59Before Isabel got married
36:01You bribed her maid
36:02Morris
36:03You were to
36:04Giz Pissin
36:05Sport a Tribble
36:06You put a sleeping potion
36:08In her tea in the Rose Garden
36:09Then abducted her with Raymond
36:11Raymond turned her into a Celtic
36:13And imprisoned her in a secret dungeon
36:18You put on her wedding dress
36:20Married Aldridge
36:22Just to steal the dragon soul horn for Raymond
36:26You're slandering me
36:28I didn't do it
36:33Really?
36:38Morris' family bought a big house
36:40In the North's capital
36:41Last year
36:42Living comfortably
36:47I wonder if her old mother
36:49In the countryside
36:50Can stand the prison sentence
36:57Do you really think Raymond loves you?
36:59You're just a pawn in his plan
37:02He needs a ruthless woman
37:04To help him achieve his ambition
37:05Do you think having five sons for him
37:07Will stabilize your position
37:09And make you worry free?
37:14Do you know how many of your five sons
37:16Were born to you
37:17And other ministers
37:18To win over them?
37:19The trial of Cecilia is just an appetizer
37:22The real main course
37:24Is Raymond Ash
37:26I no longer need anyone's help
37:28Or wait for the council's ruling
37:30I will avenge my daughter
37:32With my own hands
37:37This is where I have planned for decades
37:42From this day on
37:43The war machine of Wontong
37:45Will start operating
37:47First order
37:48All banks under Wontong
37:50Stop providing any credit
37:51To Raymond's faction
37:52This includes all wizards
37:54Merchants and landlords
37:56Related to him
38:00Second order
38:01Use all channels
38:02To spread the news
38:03About Raymond's manions
38:06Say they are about to suffer
38:07Huge losses
38:08Due to mismanagement
38:09And corruption
38:14Third order
38:15Buy all magic crystals
38:17Dragon scales
38:18And potion materials
38:21Spare no cost
38:22To buy them secretly
38:36A bloodless economic war
38:39Has begun suddenly
38:40Our funds are cut off
38:42We can't get any credit
38:43Pay us back
38:44We terminate the cooperation
38:47The price doubles
38:49No more stock
38:50Soon
38:50Eleanor
38:51I will not let you go
38:55Raymond's have to send people
38:56To Blackstone Mountain City
38:58To threaten her
39:04Get out
39:05Don't come here
39:06To make trouble
39:06All procedures
39:08Are complete
39:08No mistakes
39:10You can't touch
39:11Eleanor
39:12Or you'll face us
39:15I can't move her
39:16I can't
39:18I
39:19I remember
39:19Some of their
39:20Conversations
39:22Take your time
39:23Don't push yourself
39:24Too hard
39:25I want to help you
39:27Avenge me
39:31Who sent these
39:33Our secrets are exposed
39:36These are all true
39:37We must investigate
39:38It's a frame up
39:39Eleanor framed us
39:40You're praying again
39:41Extiguous
39:41No excuse
39:42We need an explanation
39:43Raymond is trapped
39:45He's going to destroy
39:46I won't lose
39:47I can't lose
39:49The decisive battle
39:50Is coming soon
39:53This time
39:53I don't need any trial
39:56I will do it myself
39:59I've gathered all my power
40:00Hold on my daughter
40:01Those who hurt you
40:02Are going to pay
40:08Let's go
40:12I couldn't wait
40:14To avenge my daughter
40:15I led my army
40:16Toward Raymond's castle
40:17Through the night
40:26Dragons
40:27Dragons
40:28Dragons are coming
40:28Enemy attack
40:29Enemy attack
40:40Bring them back alive
40:42Or bring them back dead
40:56Selica of Tento
40:59You do not
41:09What's going on?
41:16Raymond Ash
41:20I'm here for my daughter
41:26You
41:27How dare you
41:29I'm an elder
41:30Of the Ash family
41:31The lord won't
41:32Ignore this
41:33The lord
41:35You let your wife
41:36Pretend to be Isabel
41:37And marry your own brother
41:43This is the account
41:44Of your embezzlement
41:45Of council funds
41:46This is the secret letter
41:47Of your collusion
41:48With external forces
41:49This is the confession
41:51Of you abusing my daughter
41:52And inciting Cecily
41:53To impersonate her
41:54And
41:55This
41:56Is the handwritten letter
41:58From your elder brother
41:59Lord Aldrich
42:00You
42:00You can't kill me
42:02Cecian
42:04Cecius will
42:05Cecian
42:06Your beloved wife
42:07Has gone mad
42:09Do you want to see her
42:10I'll send you to her
42:23Take him away
42:46Your five precious sons
42:48Only one is Raymond's
42:50Biological child
42:55The other four
42:56Are the sons
42:57Of the council elders
43:22I apologize to you
43:23On behalf of the ashes family
43:28I will seal the ancient
43:30Dragon soul horn
43:36Find out all their
43:38Dirty secrets
43:38Yes madam
43:53From today on
43:54You are the
43:55Ted blood
43:55Frost eagle
43:58My money cannot be
44:00Oat
44:00My people cannot be touched
44:21I remembered what my foster mother taught me
44:23Clear a line
44:24Deny the fire somewhere to go
44:26I shifted to full form
44:28And called out
44:29Wolf
44:29Wolf
44:30Eagle
44:30Tiger
44:31Bear
44:32They came
44:33They carried ice hardened vessels in their jaws
44:35An elephant used its trunk
44:37Ants and mantises worked the fire breaks
44:39We were losing
44:41Then we weren't
44:42Then the mountain shook
44:43The ground split open
44:45A dragon came out of it
44:46Black
44:47Ancient
44:48Large enough to block the sun
44:50He opened the mountain
44:52And it rained
44:52The fire died
44:54The dragon's voice didn't come from one direction
44:56It came from everywhere
44:59This mountain is mine
45:01Who lit it?
45:03The elders said nothing
45:04A thousand years in this valley
45:06And nobody had thought to check whether something older
45:08Already lived here
45:09Then Vivian pointed at me
45:11Look at her
45:11Ash everywhere
45:12Burned fur
45:13It had to be her
45:14Every eye turned
45:16Charred
45:16Bleeding in two places
45:17The same hands that had just spent an hour fighting the fire
45:21I was certain someone would say it
45:22Any of them
45:23They'd all seen me run in
45:24The elder looked at me for a long time
45:26Then he knelt
45:29The dragon's sovereign
45:31Our wayward daughter did this
45:33She is yours to punish
45:34We offer her freely
45:35I stood still
45:36Not one of them spoke for me
45:38This familiar scene is exactly the same as in the previous life
45:41The sky outside turned the color of a wound
45:44A lichen lord
45:45And his full power
45:46In human form
45:47But how did the person in his arms become my sister?
45:50In my previous life
45:51On the day of the sacred bonding rite
45:53My sister chose the phoenix
45:54She left the bear shifter
45:56The one nobody wanted
45:57It was fate
45:59A cast off for a beast
46:01Instead
46:01I saved a lichen lord by accident
46:03He took me as his queen
46:05I became a legend across the realm beyond
46:07My sister
46:08Bonded to the phoenix
46:09Was cast out for barrenness
46:11I came home with my youngest
46:12My sister poisoned my bowl
46:14Me and my child both
46:22When I woke
46:23It was the day of the rite again
46:25Everyone present is a worthy son of their bloodline
46:29Choose freely
46:30The hall filled with glances
46:32With quiet negotiations between bodies and bloodlines
46:35I didn't want any of it
46:36In my last life
46:37Childbirth had nearly killed me
46:39I wasn't doing it again
46:40I stood alone
46:41Then the doors blew open
46:43Time returns to the present
46:44And for some reason
46:46My sister has taken my husband from my previous life
46:50I was mad at theastroph standard
46:50As let me show my husband you
46:50You had a Aleppo
46:50You were jagd
46:51You
