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.
00:00:28Years ago, when I was in a desperate situation, the young Ronan saved my life.
00:00:36That kindness became my lifelong obsession.
00:00:39But he had no idea that I was the sole pure-blooded daughter of the High Elfin King.
00:00:49When I met with disaster in my youth, I was rescued by him, the lord of a mere mid-tier
00:00:56Elfin Kingdom.
00:00:58To repay that debt, I concealed my supreme identity, even using a forbidden ritual to seal away the radiant wings
00:01:06of nature on 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, using my own pure-blooded mana to nourish his
00:01:28family, 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.
00:01:59Yet, 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, a soft, fragile wile finally shattered the silence of the infirmary.
00:02:29This was my daughter, her precious treasure, bought at the cost of all my mana.
00:02:37I named her Iris.
00:02:39At that exact moment, my personal guard rushed in to report.
00:02:43My lady!
00:02:45The lord has finished his external affairs, and 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,
00:02:58at least he would at least want to look at his newborn flesh and blood.
00:03:01Forcing my exhausted, severely depleted body up,
00:03:03I carefully held my daughter in her swaddling clothes,
00:03:06making 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.
00:03:18My 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, with long pointed ears and a pair of eyes that flashed with a cunning disguised as
00:03:38inonence.
00:03:40Countless absurd possibilities flashed through my mind.
00:03:42My hands shook uncontrollably from shock and rage, but I forced myself to stand my ground,
00:03:48enduring the tearing pain of the postpartum mana reverse flow.
00:03:52Vanessa looked up and spotted me, 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.
00:04:12He comforted her softly, even placing a lingering kiss upon her forehead, right 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.
00:04:30I have never loved her.
00:04:31She is nothing more than a tool to manage the tribe.
00:04:36Ronan, look closely.
00:04:38This 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.
00:04:44Ronan cast a brief, indifferent glance downward.
00:04:46In his eyes, there was not a shred of paternal emotion, only naked disgust and annoyance.
00:04:52He 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.
00:05:10Ronan, 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.
00:05:20He is your eldest son, the future heir of the Wind Kingdom.
00:05:24Looking at that three-year-old elf and child clinging to their side, I felt as if my soul had
00:05:29been 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
00:06:07wave.
00:06:08Just 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.
00:06:25Grandma! I finally get to see you!
00:06:29Mother 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.
00:06:48Seizing the moment, Vanessa leaned into Ronan's embrace, weeping with feigned grievance.
00:06:54It's all my fault! If I had been stronger, your perfect grandson wouldn't have spent three years starving in exile.
00:07:04Elodie's heart ached for them. She snapped her head around to look at me, with my deathly, pale face, and
00:07:11my weakly, wailing daughter, her eyes instantly turning into daggers of piercing disgust.
00:07:17You nearly died, just to produce a magicless, useless girl?
00:07:25What a pathetic waste!
00:07:27Pack up that defective brat, and drag yourselves to the Wythen Tower at the border right now!
00:07:33I won't let you bring your bad luck near my precious grandson!
00:07:40Ronan, Iris is your flesh and blood too.
00:07:44How can you just let them trample all over us?!
00:07:49But 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.
00:08:07She is utterly unworthy of living in the main manor.
00:08:13Going to the tower is your only option.
00:08:17Vanessa threw a provocative glance my way, squeezing her throat to spit out the most poison words.
00:08:23Loser.
00:08:24Since you possess no noble bloodline, staying 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.
00:09:04By ten thousand winds.
00:09:07Just when I was completely helpless and desperate,
00:09:10the heavy wooden door of the tower was suddenly pushed open,
00:09:14and 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 lips trembled.
00:09:43Did you come to see Iris?
00:09:45She 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, Ronan took a disgusted step backward.
00:09:59Serafana.
00:10:00As if the child and I were some kind of thing.
00:10:02I only came here to warn you.
00:10:06Stay 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.
00:10:13I felt as though I had been struck by lightning, taking a shocked step back.
00:10:18I 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.
00:10:28Not to cast a single glance at your own daughter, but merely to force me to give up my position.
00:10:35And to warn me?
00:10:36Ronan let out a cold laugh, his eyes filled with arrogance.
00:10:40And 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.
00:11:07If I discover that you dare to secretly harm them.
00:11:12Or 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, the heavy iron door slamming shut with a resounding thud.
00:11:33Holding my child, I collapsed into the freezing mud, laughing at my own stupidity.
00:11:38He came only to warn me.
00:11:41The night sky hung low as the freezing wind raged through the dead silence of the withered tower.
00:11:47Preventing even a single slimmer of moonlight from penetrating the darkness.
00:11:51I had burned through the vast majority of my mana during childbirth.
00:11:55The 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, inside the Wind Kingdom's main temple,
00:12:11there was a completely different scene of brilliant lights, music, and extravagant luxury.
00:12:18Vanessa and her son sat on a soft couch covered in the rarest luminescent bee skins,
00:12:22basking in the attention and adoration of all the high-ranking elves in the kingdom.
00:12:27Three-year-old Jasper fluttered the tiny green elban wings that had just begun to develop on his back.
00:12:32Holding an exquisite elban sacred berry in his hands, his face completely smeared with juice,
00:12:38Elayda sat high upon her throne, grinning from ear to ear, her eyes overflowing with a dotting pride.
00:12:44Watching this warm and harmonious scene, the more Elayda looked at this chubby grandson,
00:12:49the more pleasing he seemed to her eye. Stroking the staff that symbolized her power as the High Priestess,
00:12:54she impatiently turned to prompt my husband, Ronan, who was standing beside her.
00:12:59Ronan, Vanessa and her son have wandered among foreign kingdoms for years, enduring endless hardships.
00:13:06Now my precious eldest grandson is already three years old, and the wind-attributed mana within his body is so
00:13:12abundant.
00:13:13How can he continue to stay in the guest room so illegitimately?
00:13:17Tonight, you must have Vanessa and Jasper officially move into the Lord's main manor, into the bedchambers that rightfully belong
00:13:25to the primary mistress and the heir!
00:13:27Ronan lowered his eyes, looking at Vanessa's adoration-filled face, as she leaned coyly against him, and then at the
00:13:34child, who was sweetly calling him father.
00:13:36The scales in his heart had already tipped completely. Without a shred of hesitation, he nodded his agreement coldly on
00:13:43the spot.
00:13:44Mother is right. The best location in the main manor should naturally be reserved for the heir who truly carries
00:13:50the excellent bloodline of our kingdom.
00:13:52Seeing her son agree so readily, Eloi's face flushed with even more delight. Standing up hauntily while leaning on her
00:13:59staff, she addressed all the tribal high officials present, in a grand, supreme tone.
00:14:04Not only that, Wind Kingdom has thrived to this day, and our bloodline is supreme. Jasper is exceptionally bright, displaying
00:14:11astonishing magical talent at such a tender age. He deserves the recognition of all kingdoms!
00:14:15I propose that in three days, we hold the most grand and magnificent official announcement celebration for three-year-old
00:14:22Jasper.
00:14:23We shall high-profilely declare him as the primary heir of our Wind Kingdom's future!
00:14:29In three days, Jasper would be declared the primary heir.
00:14:33Following her move into the main manor, Vanessa began to carry herself entirely as the queen of the Wind Kingdom.
00:14:38Dressed in extravagant silks, she glided through the temple flanked by her entourage, soaking in the endless, shallow flattery.
00:14:44Yet, a stubborn sliver of anxiety remained buried deep in her chest.
00:14:48Whenever night fell, she would catch Ronan standing on the balcony, staring with a conflicted expression towards that dark, desolate,
00:14:54withered tower.
00:14:55Though he spoke with absolute coldness, subconsciously, he 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 and paranoia grow wild.
00:15:08As long as my daughter and I were breathing, her position and Jasper's future would never be safe.
00:15:13An opportunity presented itself sooner than expected.
00:15:16Early this morning, desperate to give my frail daughter a single drop of clean water,
00:15:20my completely helpless self was forced to drag my broken body out of the tower,
00:15:24heading deep into the woods to harvest pure spring water filtered by ancient divine marks.
00:15:28Learning of this, Vanessa'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 ruthlessest confidence,
00:15:39as she slipped into the dark, abandoned, withered tower.
00:15:42The wooden door creaked open, letting in the piercing chill.
00:15:46Vanessa stepped over the debris, advancing slow pace by slow pace,
00:15:51until she stopped right in front of the primitive stone bed.
00:15:54Inside her swaddling clothes, newborn Iris was sleeping soundly.
00:15:58Though her little face was pale, the faint golden divine mark shimmering on her forehead
00:16:02radiated an undeniable nobility and purity, a 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?
00:16:14If you want to blame anyone, blame your useless mother.
00:16:18The mask of innocence slipped from Vanessa's face, her eyes twisting with pure malice.
00:16:24From her wide sleeve, she slowly pulled out a porcelain vial that emitted an eerie green glow.
00:16:30Inside was a forbidden, lethal toxin she had purchased at an exorgent price from the black market.
00:16:36Soul-eating elixir, specifically designed to dissolve a newborn elf's mana core,
00:16:41and cause their soul to rot away inch by inch.
00:16:44With a trembling hand, she popped the cork and violently clamped her fingers over my baby's fragile jaw.
00:16:50The sharp pain forced my sleeping princess to snap her eyes open, letting out a weak, agonizing cry.
00:16:58But Vanessa was entirely unfazed.
00:17:01With a distorted, demonic sneer, she forced the entire bottle of icy,
00:17:05corrosive poison straight down my infant's tender throat.
00:17:09When I returned to the withered tower, thoroughly exhausted,
00:17:13and clutching that tiny container of pure spring water tightly to my chest.
00:17:17What greeted me was not the gentle sound of my daughter's breathing, but a deathly silence.
00:17:22My heart skipped a beat, and a boundless panic instantly seized me in a death grip.
00:17:30I practically crawled and scrambled my way toward that freezing stone bed.
00:17:40The moment my trembling hands pulled back the swaddling clothes.
00:17:44The sight before me caused me to drop into an abyss of ice.
00:17:51Her originally pink little face was now completely white.
00:17:57Even faintly tinged with an eerie, sickly green, deathly energy.
00:18:02What truly shattered my soul was that the faint golden elven divine mark on her forehead,
00:18:08which had been flickering softly, was now darkened across a massive area.
00:18:14Iris!
00:18:17Wake up!
00:18:20Look at mommy!
00:18:21Don't scare mommy!
00:18:23I was sprinting once more toward the Wind Kingdom's infirmary.
00:18:31I slammed the infirmary doors open with immense force.
00:18:35The sitting doctor took one look at the infant in my arms,
00:18:39who was hanging onto life by a mere thread, and his face instantly changed color.
00:18:44His hands trembled as he probed the fluctuations within my daughter's body, his eyes filling with horror.
00:18:53Heavens!
00:18:54This is the forbidden poison that destroys the mana core!
00:18:59The child's natural core is withering away, inch by inch.
00:19:03She is in critical danger and will not survive past half a month.
00:19:07The doctor's words were like a massive hammer, smashing my heart to the point where I wished I could die
00:19:14on the spot.
00:19:15To suppress this aggressive toxin, we must immediately inject a powerful, compatible mana from her father's kingdom to protect her
00:19:26heart path.
00:19:29Otherwise…
00:19:29Trembling, I closed my eyes, disregarding any cost.
00:19:33I forcibly reversed the remaining essence within my body, frantically activating the soul transmission unique to the elven race.
00:19:40A connection never lightly opened unless it was a matter of life or death.
00:19:45Rowan, save our daughter! Save our daughter!
00:19:48From the other end, there was only a deathly silence, followed by a completely heartless rejection.
00:19:54Rowan had actually severed my soul transmission, treating my soul cry for hair entirely as nothing.
00:20:15I knelt on the freezing floor of the infirmary, sending out the soul transmission over and over again, even though
00:20:20maintaining it for every additional second brought a tearing, agonizing pain to my dried up sea of consciousness.
00:20:25I refuse to let go.
00:20:28At this moment inside the Wind Kingdom's main manor, Ronan was patiently keeping Vanessa and her son company.
00:20:35Three-year-old Jasper, dressed in a luxurious outfit embroidered with green leaves and gold thread, was pulling back a
00:20:42delicate short wooden mana bow.
00:20:47When he hit the bullseye, it drew bursts of gasps and praise from the surrounding attendants, perhaps perturbed and annoyed
00:20:56by my weeping, blood-soaked pleas that continuously echoed in his mind like an act of self-mutilation after coldly
00:21:04cutting it off over a dozen times.
00:21:06Ronan finally accepted the connection.
00:21:09His phantom projection materialized in mid-air, looking down at my battered and wretched form from a great height, his
00:21:15eyes filled with absolute impatience and disgust.
00:21:19Serafana, haven't you thrown enough of a tantrum?
00:21:23Is the soul transmission something you use as a prop to throw jealous fits?
00:21:30Ronan, no, Iris has been poisoned.
00:21:33Her mana core is about to shatter, and the doctor said we must have the compatible mana from your body
00:21:38immediately to protect her heart path.
00:21:41I beg you, come and see her.
00:21:45Poisoned?
00:21:46Poisoned?
00:21:47The moment Vanessa and Jasper move into the main house, you begin fabricating such an absurd lie.
00:21:54Are you trying to curse my heir?
00:21:56I am not lying!
00:21:58She is really about to die.
00:22:04Enough!
00:22:07I know you are resentful, because you gave birth to a daughter, and your position as the Lord's Concord is
00:22:15insecure.
00:22:16But I am warning you, do not use a child as an excuse to disturb me.
00:22:27Jasper has to try on his robes for the dawn celebration in a moment.
00:22:30I have no time, to play mad with you!
00:22:38Dropping these piercingly cold words, Ronan did not wait for me, to utter another syllable,
00:22:45before callously cutting off the soul transmission with a wave of his hand.
00:22:50The phantom projection in mid-air dissolved instantly, and along with it, the very last shred of my hope was
00:22:59crushed to pieces.
00:23:03After the soul transmission was severed, Ronan stared at his empty palm, his brow frowned tightly together.
00:23:08Even though he utterly detested Serafina's jealous fits, he hearing a word like dying still caused a faint inexplicable wave
00:23:15of irritation and uneasiness to ripple through the depths of his heart.
00:23:18Vanessa, who was watching from the side, keenly captured the shift in Ronan's expression.
00:23:23A flash of panic crossed her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a profound, calculating look.
00:23:30Vanessa stepped forward gently, considerably smoothing out the wrinkles on Ronan's groves as she spoke in a strained, high-pitched
00:23:37voice.
00:23:38Ronan, the primary mistress, wept so heartbreakingly during the soul transmission, it has left my heart in a bit of
00:23:43a flutter as well.
00:23:44How about, we go to the infirmary to take a look right now?
00:23:47After all, the little princess is also your flesh and blood.
00:23:50We absolutely mustn't let anything terrible happen.
00:23:54Seeing Vanessa being so magnanimous and understanding, the irritation in Ronan's heart dissipated quite a bit, and he nodded immediately.
00:24:01Very well. We will do as you say.
00:24:05I want to see what kind of trick she can fabric.
00:24:09Then I will go prepare some mana spring water to soothe the child's mind.
00:24:13Wait for me a moment.
00:24:15Vanessa turned around, and the moment she was at an angle where Ronan could not see her,
00:24:19the tenderness on her face stently transformed into a twisted, venomous malice.
00:24:23She did not go to prepare any spring water.
00:24:25Instead, she dispatched Trust Vicent carrying heavy gold mana crystals to secretly bribe the doctor who had received Iris.
00:24:32When Vanessa accompanied Ronan and arrived at the infirmary in a hurried rush,
00:24:36she took advantage of a gap while Ronan was speaking with the nurses outside,
00:24:40using the excuse of checking in, first to stealthily slip into the patient room ahead of him, entirely unnoticed.
00:24:46Staring at the infant on the hospital bed who was hanging on to life by a mere thread,
00:24:51the divine mark on her forehead flickering erratly.
00:24:54She ruthless gleam flashed through Vanessa's eyes.
00:24:58She pulled an advanced, consecutive illusion potion from her sleeve,
00:25:03a formula capable of temporarily suppressing toxicity and forging a false appearance of health.
00:25:10Pinching the little princess' delicate neck, she poured the illusion potion down without the slightest hesitation.
00:25:16The instant the illusion potion entered her mouth,
00:25:18the sickly green deathly energy on the little princess' face began to recede rapidly,
00:25:23and the divine mark that was on the verge of cracking eerily smoothed over.
00:25:29Even her burning body temperature began to return to normal at a rapid pace.
00:25:33Aside from falling into a deep slumber, she looked exactly like a healthy infant
00:25:38who had merely caught an ordinary chill and was sleeping peacefully.
00:25:43The moment Ronan pushed open the door to the patient room,
00:25:47I was collapsed by the bedside, my eyes filled with absolute disbelief as I stared at my daughter.
00:25:52Just moments ago, after Vanessa came in,
00:25:56under a false pretext, the deathly energy on Iris' face suddenly vanished.
00:26:01Even her shriveled, divine mark smoothed out.
00:26:06Ronan stepped forward with a freezing expression.
00:26:12He only touched her forehead.
00:26:21Then he whipped his head around, staring dead at my deathly, pale face.
00:26:27His voice was sharp, cutting, and poisoned.
00:26:31Seraphana!
00:26:33This is the life-threatening danger you spoke of?
00:26:37This is the shattered core you claimed?
00:26:41Her temperature is normal.
00:26:43Her breathing is steady.
00:26:45As the Lord's Concord, you dared to deceive me.
00:26:49Using your newborn daughter as bait for a jealous tantrum.
00:26:54You disgust me.
00:26:56Looking at his furious face, my entire body turned cold.
00:27:00No!
00:27:01Ronan, listen to me!
00:27:02Just moments ago, she was not like this!
00:27:04It was Vanessa!
00:27:06She came in just now!
00:27:07She fed something to Modell!
00:27:09But Ronan did not believe me for even a second.
00:27:12So I turned to the doctor beside us,
00:27:15as if he were my last saving straw.
00:27:18Doctor!
00:27:19Speak up!
00:27:21You clearly told me,
00:27:23had been struck by a forbidden poison.
00:27:25You said it was destroying her core,
00:27:27and she would not survive half a month!
00:27:29But the doctor, who had been pale with Tara moments ago,
00:27:32had already accepted Vanessa's massive bribe.
00:27:35He did not dare look at me.
00:27:37Then, syllable by syllable,
00:27:38he pushed me into the abyss.
00:27:40Reporting to the Lord,
00:27:41the little princess merely caught a bit of a breeze,
00:27:43but there may be O-double.
00:27:44It is only ordinary discomfort.
00:27:46The primary mistress is unsettled after childbirth,
00:27:49overly sensitive and blowing a small matter out of proportion.
00:27:51My entire world shattered like a bolt for moments of blue.
00:27:53How could it suddenly change?
00:27:55Watching me fall to the ground in a distrevelled, helpless state.
00:27:59Vanessa, hidden just behind Ronan,
00:28:01let a fleeting, venomous smile of triumph play on the corners of her lips.
00:28:05Then, stepping forward at the perfect moment,
00:28:08she submissively wrapped her arm aground Ronan's,
00:28:10practically melting half her body into his embrace.
00:28:13While casting feigned looks of pity at the little princess on the sickbed,
00:28:17she continuously blew poisonous whispers into Ronan's ear.
00:28:20Ronan,
00:28:21don't blame the primary mistress too much.
00:28:24Iris is a girl, after all,
00:28:26born with a weak constitution.
00:28:28It is only natural she panicked when a minor chill threw the child into such a state.
00:28:33It's just,
00:28:34the primary mistress is far too sensitive.
00:28:37Always catching at shadows,
00:28:39and blowing minor inconveniences entirely out of proportion.
00:28:43She looked up,
00:28:44her eyes brimming with tenderness and adoration.
00:28:47Jasper's succession ceremony is in just two days.
00:28:50That is the true matter of gravity for the kingdom's legacy.
00:28:53We cannot let Serafina delay your proper business
00:28:56over these trivial backyard squabbles.
00:29:01Let us return to the main manor.
00:29:03We shouldn't let her hysteria ruin our precious time with Jasper.
00:29:11Ronan averted his eyes in disgust,
00:29:13refusing to grant even half a glance to his biological daughter on the sickbed.
00:29:18Vanessa,
00:29:18you are the one who is truly sensible.
00:29:20Come, let us return.
00:29:23And ignore this mad woman.
00:29:25If she wishes to stay here,
00:29:27and make a spectacle of herself,
00:29:29let her be.
00:29:30Leaning triumphantly against Ronan,
00:29:32Vanessa accompanied him as he strode out of the infirmary.
00:29:35Only when the footsteps of the pair had completely faded,
00:29:38did the doctor,
00:29:39who had been kneeling on the ground,
00:29:41suddenly collapse in a heap.
00:29:43He scrambled on his hands and knees to my feet,
00:29:46cooting frantically,
00:29:48while crying out in absolute despair.
00:29:49Your iris, primary mistress!
00:29:52Please do not blame me!
00:29:55I deserve to die!
00:29:57I deserve to die!
00:29:59Why did you lie just now?
00:30:00Madam Vanessa has officially moved into the Lord's main mansion with the heir,
00:30:04and enjoys the Lord's absolute favor.
00:30:08She is the future primary mistress of the kingdom!
00:30:11Before the Lord entered just now,
00:30:13she pulled me aside and threatened that if I did not cooperate,
00:30:15she would take my entire family's lives tonight,
00:30:17and even have the Lord take my head.
00:30:18She would truly kill me!
00:30:19Listening to the doctor's desperate wails,
00:30:21I looked at my daughter on the sick path,
00:30:23whose condition was forcibly masked as peaceful by the illusion of spoison.
00:30:26Ronan,
00:30:26to cater to your first love,
00:30:28you personally abandoned the sole opportunity to save your biological daughter.
00:30:31You will live to regret this.
00:30:36Three days later,
00:30:38Elid spared no expense,
00:30:40utilizing over half of the Wind Kingdom's treasury
00:30:42to organize an incredibly extravagant dawn trial
00:30:46for three-year-old Jasper.
00:30:48The streets of the main city
00:30:50were carpeted with sacred florencent petals,
00:30:53and they went so far
00:30:55as to exceptionally tame nine pure white unicorns
00:31:00to draw a crystal-invented float
00:31:04in a high-profile parade across the territory.
00:31:09As Vanessa held the hand of a magnificently dressed Jasper,
00:31:13his delicate little elven wings fluttering,
00:31:17and ascended the float,
00:31:19waves of deafening cheers erupted
00:31:22across the skies of the Wind Kingdom.
00:31:24Meanwhile, in a dark corner of the Grand Hall,
00:31:26I cradled my daughter,
00:31:28whose life force was growing fainter by the moment,
00:31:31watching this absurd fast with cold detachment.
00:31:34Without the Lord's explicit permission,
00:31:36my daughter and I lacked even the right
00:31:38to enter the main hall,
00:31:42forced to stand in the freezing wind of the outer gallery.
00:31:46Just then, Vanessa,
00:31:47basking in the adoration atop the float,
00:31:50spotted my figure from afar.
00:31:52With a flicker in her eyes,
00:31:53she intentionally walked towards me
00:31:55with a smug smile,
00:31:56covering her mouth with a handkerchief.
00:31:58She let out a feigned sigh of self-reploach,
00:32:01though her eyes were filled with condescending charity.
00:32:04Sister,
00:32:05do not blame Mother and Ronin for being heartless.
00:32:08The Withered Tower is peaceful,
00:32:09making it the perfect place
00:32:11for your magic-deficient daughter to recuperate.
00:32:13Today is our Jasper's succession celebration.
00:32:15You shouldn't have brought her out in the first place.
00:32:17Look at her.
00:32:18Even her divine mark is on the verge of dispersing.
00:32:21We must not let her clash with Jasper's unicorn fortune after today.
00:32:27Jasper will be the rightful first heir,
00:32:29while you, the primary mistress,
00:32:31are fit only to watch us ascend to the peak from the mud for the rest of your life!
00:32:35While Vanessa subjected me to endless mockery,
00:32:38the parade reached its absolute climax.
00:32:41Clad in a magnificent silver-white robe,
00:32:43a commanding and majestic Ronin,
00:32:45ascended the central divine altar
00:32:47under the gaze of the masses.
00:32:49Raising his hands,
00:32:50he used amplification magic
00:32:52to declare to the entire field
00:32:54his voice echoing through the heavens,
00:32:56arrogant and ecstatic.
00:32:58Today is not only the celebratory feast,
00:33:01establishing my son Jasper's status as heir,
00:33:04but the starting point for our wind kingdom
00:33:06to march towards the peak of all kingdoms!
00:33:09I officially announce here
00:33:10that we are exerting every effort
00:33:12to secure multiple major cooperations
00:33:14with the mysterious and supreme
00:33:16High Elfin King of the Sanctuary!
00:33:19I couldn't help but laugh.
00:33:20The supreme High Elfin King
00:33:21they were so desperately trying to fawn over?
00:33:23That's my father.
00:33:24It's time for me to turn the tables.
00:33:27The moment these words were spoken,
00:33:31a massive uproar rippled through the crowd.
00:33:35The High Elfin King was the supreme ruler
00:33:37of the entire Elfin world.
00:33:41A god-like existence.
00:33:44If they could obtain even a shred
00:33:46of that lord's favor,
00:33:48the Wind Kingdom could instantly ascend
00:33:50into the ranks of the super kingdoms.
00:33:53Ronan's face was flushed with absolute pride,
00:33:55his features bearing an unmaskable arrogance.
00:33:59As he turned an affectionate gaze
00:34:01to Vanessa and Jasper.
00:34:05Once this cooperation is finalized,
00:34:07Jasper will not only be the king
00:34:09of the Wind Kingdom,
00:34:12but the most noble young commander
00:34:14of the future Sanctuary.
00:34:16I shall use the eternal prosperity
00:34:18of the supreme Sanctuary
00:34:20to make up for the greegious.
00:34:23Vanessa and her son
00:34:25suffered over the past three years!
00:34:29Vanessa cast a provocative glance at me,
00:34:31her eyes brimming with ostentatience and disdain.
00:34:35Ronan's gaze toward me was also filled
00:34:36with ultimate coldness,
00:34:38as if mocking my instant magnificence
00:34:41and incompetence.
00:34:42However, watching Ronan's self-righteous declaration,
00:34:44I felt not a single shred of anger.
00:34:47Instead, I lowered my head
00:34:49and gently kissed the suppressed divine mark
00:34:51on my daughter's forehead.
00:34:53The sole direct bloodline of the High Elven King
00:34:57is, at this very moment,
00:35:00lying within the swaddling clothes
00:35:02you have dismissed
00:35:04as worthless garbage.
00:35:08Ronan, Vanessa,
00:35:10the supreme divinity
00:35:11you are scheming to please
00:35:13by any means necessary
00:35:15is the very person
00:35:17you have personally pushed into the abyss
00:35:19and trampled upon in every way.
00:35:22Me,
00:35:23the corners of my lips
00:35:24furved into an icy arc,
00:35:26and the suppressed rage
00:35:27and hatred in my heart
00:35:28transformed into
00:35:30the most ruthless anticipation
00:35:31at this moment.
00:35:33Wind Kingdom,
00:35:35the final revelry of your lives
00:35:37ends here.
00:35:42After a few days of revelry,
00:35:45the disguise of the illusion potion
00:35:47finally collapsed,
00:35:49like a castle of sand.
00:35:51Lying on the stone bed
00:35:52of the withered tower,
00:35:53the toxins within my daughter's body
00:35:55broke past all restraint,
00:35:57erupting violently.
00:35:58She fell
00:35:59into a prolonged coma,
00:36:01her tiny body
00:36:01burning with a terrifying fever.
00:36:04Her lips cracked and pale,
00:36:05her breathing reduced
00:36:07to a flickering candle in the wind,
00:36:10liable to extinguish at any moment.
00:36:13I knelt by the bedside,
00:36:16my 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,
00:36:30the wooden door of the high tower
00:36:31was suddenly pushed open
00:36:33in a frenzy.
00:36:34The Wind Kingdom doctor burst in,
00:36:36dripping with sweat,
00:36:37his eyes a tangled mess
00:36:39of guilt and terror.
00:36:41With 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 can neutralize
00:36:50all poisons,
00:36:52save those on the brink of death,
00:36:53and immensely nourish
00:36:54the bloodline of an elven babe.
00:36:56Please,
00:36:57feed it to the little princess quickly.
00:36:59This 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.
00:37:13Trembling,
00:37:13I pulled the cork,
00:37:15preparing to feed this
00:37:17life-saving drop
00:37:18into my daughter's mouth.
00:37:20When the tower door
00:37:20was violently blown open
00:37:22with a resounding clash,
00:37:24a wild wind rushed in
00:37:26as Alina,
00:37:27flanked by her attendants,
00:37:29strode in with a majestic,
00:37:31yet greedy expression.
00:37:32Before I could even react,
00:37:33she ruthlessly snatched
00:37:35the crystal bottle
00:37:36right 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.
00:37:49Give it back to me!
00:37:51That is Iris'
00:37:52life-saving medicine!
00:37:53I lunged forward
00:37:54like a madman
00:37:55to reclaim the medicine.
00:37:56Give it back!
00:37:58Only to be ruthlessly
00:37:59pinned to the ground
00:38:00by two high-tier guards
00:38:02using their magical staffs.
00:38:03My knees slammed
00:38:05against 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 with 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 Jasper
00:38:31is extraordinarily gifted,
00:38:33his skeletal frame
00:38:34hasn't fully matured yet.
00:38:35If we let him drink
00:38:37this divine item,
00:38:38his wind magic
00:38:39will undergo
00:38:39a complete metamorphosis,
00:38:41allowing him to grow taller
00:38:42and more powerful
00:38:43than any peer,
00:38:44entirely solidifying
00:38:46his position
00:38:47as the first heir
00:38:48under the kingdom spotlight.
00:38:50Mother is correct.
00:38:52Leaving such a bloodline
00:38:53treasure in the
00:38:54withered tower
00:38:55would be an utter waste
00:38:56of a divine gift.
00:38:57Only Jasper
00:38:59is worthy of enjoying it.
00:39:01Vanessa walked in
00:39:02at that moment
00:39:02carrying three-year-old Jasper.
00:39:04looking at me
00:39:05pinned 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
00:39:12huddled together,
00:39:13admiring 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
00:39:20belonged to my daughter
00:39:21was stripped away
00:39:22completely.
00:39:24Amid my agonized weeping,
00:39:26that priceless flask
00:39:27of sacred tree extract
00:39:29was gently yet
00:39:30forcefully poured
00:39:31into the mouth
00:39:32of the perfectly
00:39:33lival Jasper
00:39:34by Eladid.
00:39:35The moment the divine item
00:39:37entered his mouth,
00:39:38a blinding golden current
00:39:40erupted across Jasper's body.
00:39:42Not only did his wind
00:39:42attribute magic
00:39:43surge instantly,
00:39:45but his height
00:39:45even seemed to increase
00:39:47slightly.
00:39:48The three-year-old toddler
00:39:49excitedly brashed
00:39:50his magic in the hall,
00:39:52while Ronan and Vanessa
00:39:53surrounded him,
00:39:54letting out waves
00:39:55of 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
00:40:03on the ground,
00:40:04his cold words
00:40:05cutting like blades.
00:40:06Seraphina,
00:40:08cease your weeping here.
00:40:10Jasper is the future
00:40:11hope of the kingdom.
00:40:12Giving this medicine
00:40:13to him ensures
00:40:14it is put to its proper use.
00:40:16As for Iris,
00:40:18it has been said
00:40:19she merely has
00:40:20a common chill.
00:40:22It is not worth
00:40:23delaying proper business
00:40:24over her
00:40:25and she certainly
00:40:26does not deserve
00:40:27a divine object
00:40:28like the sacred tree extract.
00:40:30Flicking 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 entirely,
00:40:37the tower plunged back
00:40:39into a deathly silence.
00:40:41I crawled to the bedside,
00:40:42looking at my empty hands
00:40:44and then at my daughter,
00:40:46whose core was withering
00:40:47as she spit out
00:40:49another mouthful
00:40:49of black blood
00:40:50from the poison
00:40:51gripping her heart.
00:40:52My daughter opened
00:40:53her 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
00:41:03to force out
00:41:04the final drop
00:41:05of supreme golden blood
00:41:06from my heart,
00:41:07drawing a sacred
00:41:08golden-winged armor
00:41:10in the void.
00:41:11Through the array,
00:41:12a connection
00:41:13was instantly forged
00:41:14to the deepest depths
00:41:15of the sanctuary,
00:41:17unleashing 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.
00:41:24You have suffered
00:41:25these past three years.
00:41:26Cradling the icy form
00:41:27tightly in my arms,
00:41:28tears of blood
00:41:29tracing down my face.
00:41:30My 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
00:41:35of the sanctuary
00:41:35and take us mother and daughter
00:41:36home.
00:41:38The supreme array faded
00:41:39into the air
00:41:40and forcing my dying,
00:41:42battered body forward,
00:41:44I carried my daughter
00:41:45out of the withered tower.
00:41:46My daughter's fragile form
00:41:48barely clung to life.
00:41:50Without disturbing anyone,
00:41:51I walked step by step
00:41:53to the center of the territory,
00:41:55stopping before the tree of life.
00:41:57Then I was well be road of
00:41:58to stand into the
00:41:59Yurumaya number stool.
00:42:02Swearing by the supreme bloodline,
00:42:04I sever the covenant
00:42:05and erase my holy name
00:42:08here today.
00:42:12Inside the main manor,
00:42:14Ronan felt a sudden
00:42:16violent spasm of pain
00:42:18strike his chest.
00:42:21Ronan,
00:42:22three years of marital devotion
00:42:23has been personally severed
00:42:25by 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
00:42:30in life nor death.
00:42:31Seraphina,
00:42:32what madness are you throwing now
00:42:34over such a trivial matter
00:42:35that you would go so far
00:42:36as to harm your own body
00:42:37to forge a fortune backlash.
00:42:38I have no time to play
00:42:39these cat and mouse games
00:42:40with you.
00:42:41If you have the ability
00:42:42to leave,
00:42:43then ensure you never return.
00:42:46Sister has simply been spoiled by you.
00:42:48In a couple of days,
00:42:50once she has suffered
00:42:50enough outside,
00:42:52she will naturally come back
00:42:53begging on her knees.
00:42:55Let us ignore her.
00:42:57That night,
00:42:59the entire main manor
00:43:01of the Wind Kingdom
00:43:02was brightly lit
00:43:04and adorned
00:43:05with festive decorations.
00:43:07To celebrate
00:43:07three-year-old Jasper
00:43:09consuming 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.
00:43:19Inside the magnificent
00:43:20main hall,
00:43:21the aroma of fine wine
00:43:22filled the air
00:43:23as countless high-tier elves
00:43:24raised their glasses
00:43:25in unison,
00:43:26surrounding Vanessa
00:43:27and her son at the center
00:43:28with absolute flattery
00:43:30and obdaciousness.
00:43:31Ronan sat upon his throne,
00:43:33looking at his triumphant
00:43:35eldest 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.
00:43:44The hypocritical
00:43:45and fanatical cheers
00:43:46echoed through the night sky,
00:43:48transforming the entire temple
00:43:51into a city
00:43:52that never slept.
00:43:53Yet no one noticed
00:43:54that on the desolate path
00:43:56at the outmost edge
00:43:57of the main city,
00:43:58leading towards
00:43:59the forbidden forest,
00:44:00a slender
00:44:01and resolute figure
00:44:01was carrying
00:44:02a sweatling cloth,
00:44:03stepping into
00:44:04the boundless curtain
00:44:05of night.
00:44:05The freezing rain
00:44:06slammed down mercisely.
00:44:08Serafina'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.
00:44:13Iris's breathing
00:44:13within the cloth
00:44:14was faint,
00:44:15her tiny body
00:44:16gradually 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
00:44:23no more tears,
00:44:24only an indifference
00:44:25that chilled to the bone.
00:44:27The singing and dancing
00:44:28inside the main hall
00:44:29continued,
00:44:29and Ronan was smiling
00:44:30as he accepted
00:44:31the fine wine
00:44:31handed to him
00:44:32by Vanessa.
00:44:33At that exact instant,
00:44:34deep within the dark forest
00:44:35far away,
00:44:36the violent cold wind
00:44:37came to an abrupt halt
00:44:38without warning.
00:44:38A sliver of incredibly noble,
00:44:40sacred and tore through
00:44:41the darkness
00:44:41of the polar night.
00:44:42The frame foes
00:44:43at the edge
00:44:43of the dark,
00:44:44silent forest.
00:44:45The sounds of the Wind Kingdom
00:44:46celebratory songs
00:44:47and laughs
00:44:47still echoed faintly,
00:44:49but the moment
00:44:49the mother and girl's
00:44:50slender yet matchlessly
00:44:51noble fears
00:44:52that sliver of golden light,
00:44:53they instantly transformed
00:44:54into a remnant gleam,
00:44:56vanishing completely
00:44:57into the endless night.
00:44:59The sacred light
00:45:00erupted outward
00:45:01at the center
00:45:02of the royal hall
00:45:03in the supreme sanctuary,
00:45:05holding my daughter,
00:45:06who had practically
00:45:06stopped breathing.
00:45:08I finally collapsed
00:45:09onto my knees
00:45:10against the flawless
00:45:10white jade floor tiles,
00:45:12my strength entirely spent.
00:45:14My long hair
00:45:14was soaked through
00:45:15by the terricious rain
00:45:16sticking messily
00:45:17to my deathly pale cheeks.
00:45:18The weakness
00:45:18of post-parting recovery,
00:45:19combled with the trauma
00:45:20of forcibly reversing
00:45:21my source power,
00:45:22caused me to leave
00:45:23a striking trail of blood
00:45:24with every step.
00:45:25Sitting 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
00:45:33of history,
00:45:33trembled violently
00:45:34with immense shock
00:45:35and heartache.
00:45:36Moving like a blur,
00:45:38he 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
00:45:59at the corners of my eye
00:46:00long since dried.
00:46:01I did not cry out.
00:46:02I merely used
00:46:02the final shred
00:46:03of strength in my body
00:46:04to tremblingly present
00:46:05the swaddling cloth
00:46:05to my father.
00:46:06Father, save her.
00:46:08She is Ronin's
00:46:09biological flesh and blood,
00:46:11yet they dismissed her
00:46:12as a lowly wretch.
00:46:13To steal her
00:46:13life-saving medicine,
00:46:15they fed my iris
00:46:16forbidden illusion potions
00:46:17to forcibly mask the truth.
00:46:18She has been poisoned
00:46:20with soul-eating grass,
00:46:21and her magic core
00:46:22is on the verge
00:46:22of shattering.
00:46:23My father took
00:46:24the tiny swatting cloth
00:46:25with trembling hands.
00:46:26When his divine sense
00:46:28swept across his granddaughter's
00:46:29battered natural core,
00:46:30which was being
00:46:31ravenously consumed
00:46:32by the poison,
00:46:33this supreme gaiety
00:46:34who ruled over
00:46:35the entire sanctuary
00:46:36felt his eyes turn
00:46:37instantly blood-lucked.
00:46:39Immediately following
00:46:39a terrifying,
00:46:41world-destroying pressure
00:46:43erupted 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
00:46:54by rolling black clouds
00:46:55and violent thunderbolts.
00:46:56The ancient vines
00:46:57surrounding the royal hall,
00:46:58which had flourished
00:46:59for tens of thousands of years,
00:47:00seemed to feel
00:47:01the king's ultimate fury,
00:47:02trembling wildly
00:47:03and thrashing against the ground
00:47:05as the entire
00:47:05sacred mountain
00:47:06shook violently
00:47:07under the divine rage.
00:47:08My father raised
00:47:09his right hand high,
00:47:10the destructive divine lightning
00:47:12flashing 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
00:47:19as they echoed
00:47:20through heaven and earth.
00:47:21The Wind Kingdom?
00:47:22Run on!
00:47:23You ants dare to torture
00:47:25my only daughter
00:47:25in such a manner
00:47:26and strike ruthlessly
00:47:28against my newborn granddaughter.
00:47:29Pass down my
00:47:30dissension pathways,
00:47:31the Wind Kingdom.
00:47:32Whosoever dares harm my grawish,
00:47:34I shall demand
00:47:34their entire kingdom
00:47:35accompany her in death!
00:47:38To rescue Iris
00:47:39from the brink of death,
00:47:40my father did not hesitate
00:47:41for a moment,
00:47:43immediately ordering
00:47:43the opening of the life core
00:47:45of the ancient sacred tree
00:47:46that had lived
00:47:47for 100,000 years
00:47:48within the forbidden grounds.
00:47:50This was the energy source
00:47:51of the entire elfin world,
00:47:54a place where even
00:47:55the high priests
00:47:56of the sanctuary
00:47:56had no right
00:47:58to approach normally.
00:47:59Yet it was fully open today
00:48:01for my daughter.
00:48:02Every top holy tier healer
00:48:04within the sanctuary
00:48:05was assembled overnight.
00:48:12The golden life core
00:48:13floated gently above the sickbed,
00:48:14radiating a soft,
00:48:15vast,
00:48:16and ocean-like purity
00:48:17of magic.
00:48:17A canopy of brilliant golden light
00:48:19wrapped around Iris'
00:48:20tiny body layer by layer,
00:48:21like a coon,
00:48:22nourished by this
00:48:23immense life 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
00:48:31with a weak resonance
00:48:32under the caress
00:48:33of the divine light.
00:48:34I kept watch
00:48:35by the bedside,
00:48:36my face pale,
00:48:38never leaving her side
00:48:39for a single pace.
00:48:40I watched with my own eyes
00:48:42as those holy gris healers
00:48:43transformed secret medicines
00:48:45into golden needles,
00:48:46extracting the stubborn
00:48:47soul-eating grease poison
00:48:48from my daughter's body,
00:48:49inch by inch.
00:48:51Every time that the poison
00:48:52was forced out,
00:48:53my 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
00:49:00scorched hole
00:49:00into the pure white sheets
00:49:01upon hitting them.
00:49:03My 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,
00:49:10Vanessa,
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
00:49:16two 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
00:49:26on 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
00:49:32weak and filled
00:49:33with despair like before,
00:49:34but brimming with
00:49:35the strength of a new life.
00:49:36The golden divine mark
00:49:38on her forehead
00:49:39restored completely,
00:49:40and her once pale
00:49:41little face began
00:49:42to flush with color,
00:49:43her skin radiating
00:49:44a healthy glow.
00:49:46Congratulations, king!
00:49:47Congratulations, holy princess!
00:49:48The viriless poison
00:49:49within the little princess's
00:49:50body has completely dissolved.
00:49:52Not only is her life secured,
00:49:53but her bloodline
00:49:54is completely awa-
00:49:54Looking at my daughter's face
00:49:55as she clenched
00:49:56her tiny fists
00:49:57and blue bubbles,
00:49:58the tears I had suppressed
00:49:59for three long years
00:50:00finally broke
00:50:01through the floodgates.
00:50:03The morning sun
00:50:04spilled across
00:50:05the luxurious couch
00:50:06where Vanessa was
00:50:07gently helping Ronan
00:50:07into his robes.
00:50:09However, Ronan's brow
00:50:10was furrowed tightly.
00:50:11His handsome face
00:50:12clouded with undeniable
00:50:13irritation and gloom.
00:50:14Right then,
00:50:15a panic-starting bell
00:50:16rang out from outside
00:50:16the main temple.
00:50:17Several elders
00:50:17scrambled into the hall,
00:50:19their faces as white as sheets.
00:50:20Lord, disaster has struck.
00:50:22The 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.
00:50:36What did you say?
00:50:38The passage is locked.
00:50:42Who could possibly
00:50:43have such power?
00:50:44In that instant,
00:50:45the image of Seraphina's
00:50:47cold, ruthless phantom
00:50:48before her departure
00:50:49flashed through his mind
00:50:51and his heart sank.
00:50:52Could it be
00:50:54Seraphina?
00:50:55But the moment
00:50:55the thought arose,
00:50:56it was instantly crushed
00:50:57by the deep-rooted arrogance
00:50:59in his heart.
00:51:00He let out a cold,
00:51:01self-decricketing laugh.
00:51:03Seraphina was nothing more
00:51:04than a lowly woman
00:51:04with no background,
00:51:06inferior even to
00:51:07a low-tier elf
00:51:07of the Windsuary
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
00:51:18teasingly.
00:51:20Exactly, Lord.
00:51:21Sister ran away in 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
00:51:30to lock the ascension platform?
00:51:34Ronan 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.
00:51:41Pushing 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
00:51:49the 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.
00:51:55What are you panicking for?
00:51:56Bring out the Covenant
00:51:57Jade plaques
00:51:57for Seraphina and the infant.
00:51:59I want to see where
00:51:59they are hiding
00:52:00and laughing at me.
00:52:01My lord,
00:52:02spare my life.
00:52:04They cannot be brought out.
00:52:06Just three days ago,
00:52:07the primary
00:52:08Mistress Covenant mark
00:52:09under the Tree of Life
00:52:10was forcibly erased.
00:52:13What did you say?
00:52:15Forcibly erased?
00:52:16Not only is it gone,
00:52:18but 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.
00:52:24Half of the Tree of Life
00:52:25has withered.
00:52:25I used every tracking method
00:52:27available,
00:52:27but they are all
00:52:28untraceable.
00:52:29They have completely severed
00:52:30their bloodline
00:52:31and connection
00:52:32with the Wind Kingdom.
00:52:33Well played,
00:52:34Seraphina.
00:52:35To resort to such
00:52:36a self-harming,
00:52:37despicable trick
00:52:38as deleting
00:52:39your holy name.
00:52:40Do you think you can escape
00:52:42just by doing that?
00:52:43I want to see how many days
00:52:44you can last out there
00:52:46with your dying daughter
00:52:47without the protection
00:52:48of the Wind Kingdom.
00:52:51Watching her daughter
00:52:52sleep peacefully
00:52:53in the divine light
00:52:54of the sacred tree,
00:52:55Seraphina slowly stood up.
00:52:57The mole that tended
00:52:58as she turned
00:52:59to vanish from her eyes,
00:53:00replaced by a bottomless
00:53:02coldness and resolve.
00:53:03Father,
00:53:04I was too foolish
00:53:04in the past
00:53:05to repay a trivial
00:53:06mortal deed.
00:53:07I degraded myself
00:53:09to 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,
00:53:17slicing through the air
00:53:18like a blade.
00:53:19As an invisible
00:53:20emotional barrier shattered,
00:53:21the painful memories
00:53:22of her humiliation,
00:53:24Ronin's neglect,
00:53:25and Vanessa's framing
00:53:26in the Wind Kingdom
00:53:27were sealed deep
00:53:28within her heart.
00:53:30From this day forward,
00:53:31the lowly,
00:53:32submissive 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
00:53:46of relief and pride.
00:53:47He immediately gave
00:53:47his stern approval.
00:53:48Half an hour later,
00:53:49the gates to the sanctuary's
00:53:50core forbidden ground
00:53:51swung open.
00:53:52This was the sacred
00:53:53training pool exclusive
00:53:54to the heirs of
00:53:54the supreme royal family.
00:53:55Filled with primeval
00:53:56Priadan magic
00:53:57accumulated over
00:53:5810,000 years,
00:53:59and 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
00:54:05bone-shattering transcendent.
00:54:06Without any hesitation,
00:54:07under the Averstek gaze
00:54:08of 10,000 pure-blooded
00:54:10elven guards,
00:54:11Seraphina stepped relutely
00:54:12into the terrifying
00:54:13surging sacred pool
00:54:14clad in a simple
00:54:15white robe.
00:54:16Boom!
00:54:17The moment her body
00:54:17was completely submerged,
00:54:19the ancient magic erupted,
00:54:20unleashing towering
00:54:21golden waves.
00:54:22The violent pre-pezzanard energy
00:54:23slashed through her
00:54:24Merpicrians and bones
00:54:24like countless blades.
00:54:26Yet, she did not even flinch.
00:54:27The nine sore seals
00:54:28she had petitioned herself
00:54:29to repay her debt to Ronion
00:54:30began to shatter and unravel,
00:54:32completely awakening
00:54:32her de-dormant power
00:54:33under the furious onslaught.
00:54:35Smash!
00:54:36Ronin shattered his
00:54:37communication array
00:54:38for the 12th time.
00:54:40Every time he tried
00:54:41to connect with Seraphina
00:54:42through a soul transmission,
00:54:43he was met with
00:54:44nothing but a cold,
00:54:45empty echo,
00:54:46and the piercing pain
00:54:47of magical backlash.
00:54:48His frustration reached
00:54:49its peep
00:54:50as a suffocating panic
00:54:51of losing control
00:54:52gripped his throat.
00:54:53Just then,
00:54:54the hall doors pushed open
00:54:56and Vanessa walked in smiling,
00:54:58holding three-year-old Jasper
00:54:59by the hand.
00:55:00Roman, look!
00:55:02After taking the sacred
00:55:03tree extract today,
00:55:05Jasper can already control
00:55:06two high-tier wind blades!
00:55:09He truly is your eldest son.
00:55:12Ronin turned his irritated gaze
00:55:14onto Jasper
00:55:15who was shouting
00:55:16and 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
00:55:21of his kingdom's fortune,
00:55:22looking at Jasper's arrogant
00:55:24and brash face
00:55:25felt unprecedentedly discordal.
00:55:27The child's features
00:55:27lacked even a trace
00:55:28of the Wind Kingdom
00:55:29royal family's elegance,
00:55:31showing instead
00:55:31a crude vulgarity.
00:55:33What terrified him most
00:55:34was that the wind-attributed
00:55:35magicic radiating from Jasper
00:55:37was 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?
00:56:03Did he do something wrong?
00:56:05Rokon stared dead
00:56:05at the flash of panic
00:56:06in Vanessa's eyes.
00:56:07His hands clenched tightly
00:56:09beneath 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,
00:56:14he put on a cold disguise.
00:56:15It is nothing.
00:56:16I am simply tired.
00:56:18You may leave.
00:56:20The moment the doors closed,
00:56:22Ronin's eyes turned
00:56:22incredibly sinister.
00:56:24He looked toward the empty air
00:56:25and gave a ruthless command.
00:56:26Someone,
00:56:27bring out the royal family's
00:56:28most secretive bloodline
00:56:29apriation arabis.
00:56:30Remember,
00:56:31prepare it in secret.
00:56:33Find an opportunity
00:56:34to gather Jasper's hair
00:56:35and finger blood later.
00:56:37Vanessa must not know
00:56:38a single thing about this.
00:56:39If I find
00:56:40that his bloodline
00:56:41does not match,
00:56:42I will ensure them
00:56:43die without a burial place!
00:56:47Meanwhile,
00:56:48in 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
00:56:54of the divine king
00:56:55knelt across the mountains.
00:56:56Everyone held their breath,
00:56:57looking up at the gradually
00:56:58calming sacred pool
00:56:59in awe.
00:56:59Suddenly,
00:57:00faint golden ripple
00:57:01carrying supreme authority
00:57:02spread from the center
00:57:03of the pool.
00:57:04A graceful noble figure
00:57:05slowly rose from
00:57:06the center of the water.
00:57:07Seraphina's postpartum
00:57:08weakness and plast
00:57:09were entirely gone.
00:57:10Her skin shone
00:57:11like flawless white jade,
00:57:12flowing with a sacred light,
00:57:14and her once withered long hair
00:57:15had turned into a dazzling
00:57:16golden color,
00:57:17skating down to her ankles.
00:57:19Under the baptism
00:57:19of the ancient
00:57:20presided energy,
00:57:21her appearance and magic
00:57:22were completely restored,
00:57:24far surpassing her past peak.
00:57:25The moment her feet
00:57:26left the water
00:57:27and she hovered in midair,
00:57:29the space behind her
00:57:30tore violently.
00:57:31Boom!
00:57:31Accompanied by a divine
00:57:32phoenix cry
00:57:33that echoed through the heavens,
00:57:34a pair of dazzling
00:57:35supreme natural wings
00:57:36radiating boundless life
00:57:37and destruction
00:57:38unfurled behind her back.
00:57:39The divine wings
00:57:40were massive,
00:57:41each feather
00:57:41condundated from the purest
00:57:42golden light
00:57:43of natural law.
00:57:44With a slight flutter,
00:57:45a terrifying pressure
00:57:46swept past like a tsunami.
00:57:47Unable to withstand
00:57:48the bloodline pressure
00:57:49from the depths
00:57:50of their souls,
00:57:51the ten thousand
00:57:52pure-blooded elves
00:57:53slammed their foreheads
00:57:54against the ground
00:57:55as the sacred roof
00:57:56and echoed in harmony.
00:57:58We welcome
00:57:59Her Majesty's
00:57:59ascension to the throne!
00:58:03You will actually
00:58:04divine power go 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
00:58:12slightly,
00:58:12feeling the terrifying magic
00:58:13capable of destroying
00:58:14heaven and earth,
00:58:15a cruel,
00:58:16cold smile
00:58:16playing on her lips.
00:58:17The submissive,
00:58:18lowly 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,
00:58:22had completely died
00:58:23in this sacred pool today.
00:58:24The one who lived now
00:58:25was the Supreme Empress,
00:58:27who held the power
00:58:28over life and death
00:58:29for the entire
00:58:30elven sanctuary.
00:58:31She turned her gaze
00:58:32towards the direction
00:58:33of the Wind Kingdom,
00:58:35her murderous intent
00:58:36radiating palpably.
00:58:39Since Seraphina's departure,
00:58:41Vanessa carried herself
00:58:42completely as the new
00:58:43mistress of the Wind Kingdom.
00:58:44Without the restraint
00:58:45of the legitimate
00:58:46primary mistress,
00:58:47she tore off
00:58:48her past gentle disguise.
00:58:49The first thing she did
00:58:50upon moving is
00:58:50replace all the decorations
00:58:52with the most luxurious
00:58:53gold 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
00:59:01elf's winter ravens,
00:59:02just to fashion
00:59:03a sweeping dress
00:59:04embedded with deep sea
00:59:04magic krills.
00:59:05Furthermore,
00:59:06Vanessa was arrogant
00:59:07and harsh to the point
00:59:08of cruelty toward the
00:59:09servants and lower class
00:59:10elves of the kingdom.
00:59:11Mistress,
00:59:12this is the silver needle
00:59:12tea you requested.
00:59:14The temperature is just right.
00:59:15It's...
00:59:16Scalding,
00:59:16you useless wretch!
00:59:17Are you trying to ruin
00:59:18my face on purpose?
00:59:20Someone,
00:59:20strip her of her elfin badge
00:59:21and banish her entire family
00:59:23to hard labor
00:59:23at the Wither Tower!
00:59:25Panic gripped the main manor,
00:59:27and the lower tier elves
00:59:28filled the air with grievances.
00:59:29Sitting in his study,
00:59:30Ronan listened to the
00:59:31constant shouting,
00:59:32face slapping
00:59:33and crying from outside,
00:59:34his temples throbbing,
00:59:35looking at the ledger
00:59:36submitted by the
00:59:37Council of Elders,
00:59:38which detailed
00:59:38Vanessa's waste
00:59:39of tens of thousands
00:59:40of magic crystals
00:59:41over the past few days,
00:59:42his face turned grim.
00:59:43In the past,
00:59:44when Serafina managed
00:59:44the household,
00:59:45the entire wind kingdom
00:59:46was orderly.
00:59:47She 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.
00:59:53Even using her own source
00:59:54Morna to nourish
00:59:55injured low-tier soldiers,
00:59:56Roman instinctively
00:59:57touched the empty space
00:59:58beside his throne,
00:59:59an unprecedented emptiness
01:00:00and regret
01:00:01washing over him
01:00:02like a tidal wave.
01:00:03He began to desperately
01:00:04miss the woman
01:00:05who had always quietly
01:00:06waited for him.
01:00:07But now,
01:00:08no matter how much
01:00:09he searched the wind
01:00:10kingdom's territory,
01:00:11he could no longer
01:00:11find a single trace
01:00:12of Serafina.
01:00:15Yet Ronan had no idea
01:00:16that while he was
01:00:17drowning in endless
01:00:18regret and agony,
01:00:19a dim storal lamp
01:00:19was burning in the most
01:00:20secluded subterranean
01:00:21chamber of the main
01:00:22manor.
01:00:22Dressed in her luxurious
01:00:23gown,
01:00:24Vanessa showed none
01:00:24of her usual arrogance,
01:00:26slumping limply into
01:00:27the embrace of her old
01:00:27lover Oswin,
01:00:28the chief captain of the
01:00:29guards.
01:00:30Oswin's rough,
01:00:31calloused hands
01:00:31gripped her slender
01:00:32waist tightly,
01:00:32as their breaths
01:00:33mingled in a display
01:00:34of immacity and
01:00:35wanton behavior.
01:00:36A suspicious
01:00:37Rhett Ronan
01:00:37stared at Jasper
01:00:38for a long time
01:00:39today.
01:00:39Could he have
01:00:40discovered something?
01:00:42My darling,
01:00:43with me here,
01:00:44what are you afraid
01:00:44of?
01:00:45Even if his
01:00:45suspicions lead him
01:00:46to test the bloodline,
01:00:48he will never
01:00:48find a problem.
01:00:49Don't forget,
01:00:50when he sent me
01:00:50to draw our son's
01:00:51blood,
01:00:52I swapped it
01:00:52with my own.
01:00:53That broken
01:00:54appraisal,
01:00:55Askel,
01:00:55of his will only
01:00:56show an absolute
01:00:56blood relative.
01:00:57Askel pulled
01:00:58Vanessa closer,
01:00:59tilting her chin
01:01:00up proudly.
01:01:01If Ronan
01:01:02hadn't been
01:01:02heavily injured
01:01:03and unconscious
01:01:03during the war
01:01:04three years ago,
01:01:05allowing you
01:01:06to slip into
01:01:07my bed amid
01:01:07the chaos,
01:01:09how else would
01:01:09he have become
01:01:10this cheap
01:01:11father and
01:01:12felt guilty
01:01:12enough to
01:01:13search for you
01:01:13for three
01:01:14whole years?
01:01:15Vanessa's
01:01:15beautiful eyes
01:01:16flashed with a
01:01:17venomous light
01:01:17as she laughed
01:01:18and pinched the
01:01:19man,
01:01:19who told Ronan
01:01:20to pride himself
01:01:21on being deeply
01:01:22affectionate when
01:01:23he is actually
01:01:23a fool who
01:01:24is easily
01:01:24deceived.
01:01:25For three
01:01:26years,
01:01:26he trampled
01:01:27Seraphina,
01:01:27the legitimate
01:01:28mistress,
01:01:28into the dirt
01:01:29for the
01:01:29sake of
01:01:30Jasper and
01:01:30mine.
01:01:31Little does
01:01:31he know,
01:01:32the heir
01:01:32he personally
01:01:33cherishes
01:01:33is actually
01:01:34your child!
01:01:35A wild
01:01:36and greedy
01:01:36ambition
01:01:36as his
01:01:37flashed,
01:01:37his voice
01:01:38turned low
01:01:38and vicious.
01:01:39Ronan
01:01:40is completely
01:01:40distracted
01:01:41every day
01:01:41because of
01:01:41Seraphis'
01:01:42disappears
01:01:42and the
01:01:42kingdom's
01:01:43fortune
01:01:43has mostly
01:01:43vanished
01:01:44for some
01:01:44reason.
01:01:45The
01:01:45ascension
01:01:45passage
01:01:46is even
01:01:46closed.
01:01:47In just
01:01:47a few
01:01:48more days,
01:01:48we will
01:01:49deliver
01:01:49the
01:01:50fatal
01:01:50blood.
01:01:52The
01:01:53inner
01:01:53frustration
01:01:53and the
01:01:54mysterious
01:01:54loss of
01:01:55his
01:01:55kingdom's
01:01:55fortune
01:01:55drove
01:01:56him
01:01:56near
01:01:56madness.
01:01:57His
01:01:57mind
01:01:57troubled,
01:01:58he walked
01:01:58aimlessly
01:01:59through the
01:01:59streets of
01:02:00the main
01:02:00city and
01:02:01inadvertently
01:02:01stopped in
01:02:02front of
01:02:02the infirmary.
01:02:03Looking at
01:02:04the somewhat
01:02:04dilapidated
01:02:05doors,
01:02:05the image
01:02:05of Seraphina
01:02:06weeping in
01:02:07absolute
01:02:07despair here
01:02:08suddenly flashed
01:02:09through his
01:02:10mind.
01:02:10I must be
01:02:11losing my
01:02:11mind to
01:02:11have walked
01:02:12all the
01:02:12way here.
01:02:12Just as
01:02:13he turned
01:02:13to leave,
01:02:14a stealthy
01:02:14figure carrying
01:02:15a bundle
01:02:15prepared to
01:02:16flee from
01:02:16inside the
01:02:16infirmary.
01:02:17It was
01:02:18the doctor
01:02:18from before.
01:02:19Ever since
01:02:19Seraphina
01:02:19umits erased
01:02:20her holy
01:02:20name and
01:02:20left,
01:02:21causing
01:02:21half of
01:02:21the tree
01:02:22of life
01:02:22to
01:02:22wither,
01:02:22this
01:02:23doctor
01:02:23had been
01:02:23tormented
01:02:24night and
01:02:24day by
01:02:24guilt and
01:02:25fear,
01:02:25finally breaking
01:02:26down and
01:02:26preparing to
01:02:26escape
01:02:27overnight.
01:02:27Ronan's
01:02:28eyes turned
01:02:28sharp.
01:02:29Moving like
01:02:29lightning,
01:02:30he materialized
01:02:30before the
01:02:31doctor,
01:02:32blocking his
01:02:32path.
01:02:33Where do
01:02:33you think
01:02:33you are
01:02:34running?
01:02:35What are
01:02:35you panicking
01:02:42withering?
01:02:43The doctor's
01:02:43psychological
01:02:43defense collapsed
01:02:44completely,
01:02:45even needing
01:02:45to use a
01:02:46soul-searching
01:02:46technique.
01:02:47He fell to
01:02:47his knees
01:02:47in terror,
01:02:48now coating
01:02:48frantically as
01:02:49tears and
01:02:49muses strem
01:02:50down his
01:02:50face.
01:02:55Ronan's
01:02:58heart skipped
01:02:59a beat,
01:02:59a profound
01:03:00sense of
01:03:00foreboding
01:03:01enveloping his
01:03:02entire body.
01:03:03Make yourself
01:03:03clear!
01:03:04What do you
01:03:05mean she
01:03:05didn't lie?
01:03:06It was your
01:03:06daughter.
01:03:07Your daughter
01:03:08Iris didn't
01:03:08catch an
01:03:09ordinary chill
01:03:09at all.
01:03:10She was
01:03:11poisoned with
01:03:11the highly
01:03:12insidious
01:03:12soul-eating
01:03:13grass and
01:03:13her core
01:03:14had already
01:03:14begun to
01:03:14wither.
01:03:15Boom,
01:03:15the doctor's
01:03:16words exploded
01:03:16in Ronan's
01:03:17ears like
01:03:17a thunder
01:03:17mist leaving
01:03:18his pail
01:03:18and make
01:03:19him sway
01:03:19on his
01:03:19feet.
01:03:20Ronan
01:03:21grabbed
01:03:21the terrified
01:03:22fleeing
01:03:22doctor by
01:03:23the collar,
01:03:23his eyes
01:03:24bloodshot
01:03:25like a
01:03:25cornered
01:03:25beast.
01:03:27Impossible!
01:03:27I checked
01:03:28her myself
01:03:28that day,
01:03:29her breathing
01:03:30was steady
01:03:30and her
01:03:31temperature
01:03:31was normal,
01:03:32even you
01:03:32personally
01:03:33diagnosed
01:03:33it as
01:03:34a common

01:03:43to do
01:03:44it!
01:03:44It was
01:03:44her!
01:03:45She fed
01:03:45the little
01:03:46princess a
01:03:46forbidden illusion
01:03:47potion before
01:03:48you arrived,
01:03:49forcibly creating
01:03:50a false
01:03:51appearance of
01:03:52health!
01:03:53the doctor's
01:03:54words cut
01:03:55like knives,
01:03:56tearing
01:03:57Ronan's
01:03:57self-rightless
01:03:58arrogance
01:03:59to pieces.
01:04:00Madame
01:04:00Vanessa
01:04:01bribed me
01:04:01and threatened
01:04:02my family's
01:04:03lives to
01:04:03maintain
01:04:03the illusion,
01:04:04all to
01:04:04make you
01:04:05believe the
01:04:05primary

01:04:13flask
01:04:14of

01:04:15Hearing

01:04:17Ronan's
01:04:17body

01:04:19his face
01:04:20draining
01:04:20of all
01:04:20color.
01:04:21That
01:04:21spiritual
01:04:21medicine
01:04:22was
01:04:22given
01:04:22to

01:18:19their
01:18:19past
01:18:19familiarity
01:18:20vanished
01:18:20completely
01:18:20due to an
01:18:21unfair distribution of the spoils
01:18:22malice erupted in both of them
01:18:24and they
01:18:24immediately engaged in a fierce
01:18:25magical brawl inside the narrow
01:18:27carriage
01:18:27wild windblades and toxic mist clashed violently inside the compartment
01:18:31creating continuous loud explosions
01:18:33as the out of control carriage traveled along a highly treacherous mountain path
01:18:37the draft bears panicked and went wild
01:18:49amid a piercing streak the out of control carriage plunged off the cliff edge
01:18:53carrying the couple and the treasures they had schemed so hard to steal
01:18:57crashing heavily into the boulder stretch bottom of the deep valley
01:19:01beneath the deep valley the rain poured heavily the carriage had shattered completely
01:19:06with broken wood and magic crystals scattered across the ground amid the rubble
01:19:09the bodies of vanessa and ashwick lay twisted together torn apart by the wild
01:19:13magic to the point of being unrecognizable dying an incredibly gruesome death that green
01:19:18tea face that had once used illusion potions to maintain a false appearance of perfection
01:19:23was now sliced and bloodied by the rocks
01:19:27buzz
01:19:28space rippled slightly as several royal guards clad in pure gold robes quietly descended upon
01:19:33the crash site
01:19:33seraphina did not even need to act personally merely sending the sanctuary's cleanup group
01:19:37to wrap things up
01:19:38this is the heavenly karma for those who betray her majesty
01:19:42the guards raised their hands
01:19:43golden light surging from from their palms
01:19:45as the magic arenas activated the scattered ancient treasures and sacred resource of the
01:19:49wind kingdom were entirely gathered and reclaimed
01:19:51these items carried a significant amount of fortune and now that they were continuously funneled into the treasury of the
01:19:56supreme always had the villains had calculated everything only to lose their lives in the end and turn the wind
01:20:03kingdom's thousands of years of accumulation into a stepping stone to secure seraphia's supreme royal power which was ironic to
01:20:11the extreme
01:20:40having lost everything
01:20:41he would embrace the empty air gently pretending his wife and child were still by his side
01:20:52he drowned his sorrows in alcohol all day his mind become increasingly fractured as he remained trapped indefinitely within the
01:20:59endless regret he had personally fashioned
01:21:02roman curled up in the corner of a freezing stone seat his clothes tattered his once proud spine broken by
01:21:09regret his hands were blooded and his fingernails filled with mud from frantically digging through the rubble for garments seraphana
01:21:16had left behind
01:21:19look at that
01:21:20that's the wise lord who trampled his true wife for a green tea woman back then
01:21:29he really is a pathetic dog
01:21:32Ronian was completely deaf to these mocks
01:21:34merely clutching a tattered cloth doll tightly to his chest
01:21:37a toy he had fashioned for iris from memory
01:21:40since his magic was entirely gone
01:21:42his appearance was aging at a visible rate
01:21:44his long hair turning into dry white strands
01:21:47whenever 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
01:21:56deeply into his arms
01:21:57drawing blood
01:21:58yet it could not stop the splitting pain in his chest
01:22:02ha ha ha ha
01:22:03seraphina
01:22:05this is retribution
01:22:07this is my retribution
01:22:09you let me live
01:22:12only to find that every second of being alive
01:22:14is an absolute hell
01:22:16the once high and mighty king had ultimately transformed into a mentally degranged madman
01:22:21fighting with wild dogs for food in the ruins
01:22:24death would be a merciful release for him
01:22:27and remaining conscious to endure this life sentence of regret
01:22:30was his ultimate punishment
01:22:32as for Jasper
01:22:34the three year old fake he who had been pampered by the entire kingdom
01:22:37he was, after all, an innocent and ignorant child
01:22:40who did not understand the greed and sins of adults
01:22:42with the deaths of Vener and Osquin
01:22:44the vanity, privileges and flambority that had once surrounded him
01:22:47vanished overnight
01:22:48once the truth of the royal bloodline array spread
01:22:50he 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
01:22:58the forged mark on his forehead disappeared
01:23:00and 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
01:23:17father, mother, where did you go?
01:23:25Jasper will be good from now at once
01:23:30he no longer had a luxurious golden cradle or 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
01:23:46the coronation ceremony lasted for seven days before finally came to a successful conclusion
01:23:50Serafina stood atop the highest altar of the supreme sanctuary
01:23:53with past severing her ties, completely submission, weakness and 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 Seraf onto the divine throne that symbolized the highest power of the elfin world
01:24:15amid the mountain shattering worship of all living beings
01:24:17mother, it's so beautiful here
01:24:20will anyone dare to bully us from now on?
01:24:25Serafana looked down
01:24:26gently 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 mother will protect you
01:24:37and 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
01:24:45the empress who had cast aside romantic attachments now stood alone in her divinity
01:24:48ruling over the sanctuary and beginning a legendary era that belonged entirely to them
01:24:52you in the ultimate memory of the alŽ
01:24:52and the self-crime structure continue to be a part of the future
01:24:52it is so little as our brothers and sisters
01:24:52you don't have such strong won all the angels
