Short filmTranscript
00:00:02I'm Leora Valeris, the most revered Duchess of the Arthurian continent.
00:00:07Right now, I'm standing at my coronation, basking in the adoration of my people.
00:00:25Why do you get to have all this supreme glory?
00:00:28If I had been the one Mary Marcus, all of this would be mine!
00:00:38My stepsister, Isolette, the glory Isolette brings, is just hell in disguise.
00:00:46If I had to do it all over again, I'd rather die than take a single step back into that
00:00:51life.
00:00:58I thought this was the end, but I never expected the World Tree Pendant to absorb our blood, and actually
00:01:06turn back time.
00:01:25I'm actually back. The husband's selection. The day that decided my fate three years ago.
00:01:35Leora, go find yourself a wealthy suitor and set a good example for your sister!
00:01:40In my past life, I stood right here and chose the Count's son, Marcus, walking step by step into a
00:01:47gilded tomb.
00:01:48This time, I won't let history repeat itself.
00:01:58Your Highness, this commoner's marriage selection is nothing but a farce for ruined families to trade power for cash.
00:02:04As a prince of the realm, how can you pick your future queen from a bunch of country bumpers?
00:02:09Royal power only buys fake obedience. What I want is true love.
00:02:14Someone who can look past this dirt and seize my soul. We're just passing by anyway, let's take a look.
00:02:29Count Montburne's son, Marcus, is actually here. The revival of our family depends entirely on today.
00:02:35You must use your looks and charm to seduce powerful nobles like him.
00:02:56My lord, I am willing to offer you my absolute loyalty, body and soul.
00:03:02Seeing the desperate look in Isol's eyes as she tried to steal my husband from my past life, it hit
00:03:08me.
00:03:08My vain little sister remembered everything too. She'd been reborn, just like me.
00:03:15Since your sister chose the Count's son, you go serve the old Count.
00:03:27I'm not marrying him.
00:03:28Only the old Count's wealth can bring our family back to the top.
00:03:33I gave you your beauty and you must make a sacrifice for the family!
00:03:39Only useless men sell their daughters for family glory!
00:03:42I'll say it again, I'm not marrying him!
00:03:47Father!
00:03:51Father, since my dear sister thinks she's too good for the old Count, why not just marry her off to
00:03:56that penniless trap on the corner?
00:03:58She's a useless piece of trash anyway, so they're a perfect match.
00:04:03You ungrateful wretch!
00:04:05If you don't marry the old Count, I'll do exactly what your sister suggested and toss you to that beggar
00:04:11like a stray dog!
00:04:19I know this choice is insane, but in this life, I refuse to be chained by power again.
00:04:29This man might just be my only salvation.
00:04:38As everyone wishes, I choose to marry you.
00:04:48To be right, she's still real.
00:04:49Is she crazy?
00:04:50The eldest daughter of a Baron, passing up nobles to pick a lowly street rat.
00:04:59Leora!
00:05:00How dare you make such a shameful trim bring this massive disgrace upon our family!
00:05:04And you! What right does a filthy brat like you have to step foot in such a noble gathering?
00:05:09Get the hell out of here right now!
00:05:14That's enough, Father! He might be a nobody off the streets, but he's more genuine than any of you elites!
00:05:19To me, he's better than all of you combined! He's the man I chose, and nobody gets to kick him
00:05:23out!
00:05:27What's your name? Will you marry me?
00:05:36I'm Rekers. Are you absolutely sure about this, my beautiful lady?
00:05:42In my last life, everyone envied my marriage into the highest tier of nobility, and my life of luxury.
00:05:48But who knew the pain and despair hiding beneath those glamorous dresses?
00:05:53I'd rather marry a beggar than those rotten, hypercritical nobles.
00:05:58Oh my God, Leora must have gone mad with jealousy over Issel snaggering the Count's son, driving her to make
00:06:06such a choice.
00:06:12Poor Leora. If you're really that desperate for my protection, how about being a good girl and becoming my mistress?
00:06:20I'd shower you in the finest silks and rubies. Definitely better than tagging along with this pathetic beggar.
00:06:35What's your name?
00:06:36Since you love this piece of trash so much...
00:06:41Let me help you celebrate.
00:06:43Let's see if this magicless tramp burns to death!
00:06:58Isselad, that's enough! Your vulgar and insolent behaviour is what's truly dragging our family's name through the mud!
00:07:05My dear sister, your fiancé doesn't even have the skills to put out a tiny fire! How useless!
00:07:14He's fine just the way he is. He doesn't wear your hippotical masks.
00:07:20And he isn't full of your filthy schemes. I am willing to marry him.
00:07:24This girl sees past the elite's masquerade. That brilliant mind is exactly what belongs on the throne next to me.
00:07:32You shameless disgrace of a daughter!
00:07:34If you dare marry this worthless trash who's worse than a dog, I'll disown you right here and strip you
00:07:42of the Valorius name!
00:07:49As you wish.
00:07:51From this day forward, I, Lyora, have nothing to do with the Valorius family.
00:07:55But I am still marrying him.
00:08:03Did you mean everything you just said?
00:08:06I have absolutely nothing, not even a decent set of clothes. Are you seriously gonna marry me?
00:08:11I meant every single word. I want to live the simplest life with you. The wedding is in three days.
00:08:17Will you accept?
00:08:20Of course. I'll be there in three days, right on time.
00:08:26I promise I will never let you endure hardship with me.
00:08:30Even if he really is just a tramp, his eyes are full of nothing but sincerity and tender.
00:08:35Unlike those fake nobles, five schemes and arrogance, I know I made the right choice.
00:08:45This dress is too plain. Am I really supposed to let her walk down the aisle in this?
00:08:49It's a complete insult to her.
00:08:51Your Highness, you're supposed to be a guy with nothing to his name.
00:08:54A bespoke gown covered in rare gems blows your cover instantly.
00:09:03I know the groom is supposed to handle the wedding dress, but with what little I have, this is the
00:09:07best I could do.
00:09:08I'm sorry for shorting you.
00:09:11Don't be silly. It might not be covered in diamonds, but it carries your true devotion.
00:09:16I absolutely adore it.
00:09:20After the wedding, let's settle in a sleepy town, build a little wooden house, and grow those white roses I
00:09:26love.
00:09:26None of that toxic elite drama. Just you and me, keeping things simple and sweet.
00:09:41I'm gonna go get ready. See you in three days.
00:09:44I'm gonna go get ready. See you in three days.
00:10:00I'm gonna go get ready.
00:10:01You have my word.
00:10:09Lyra, father paid a thort for Morris, the Empire's premier tailor, to bless my wedding gown with magic.
00:10:19I painstakingly designed the magic Korra rays on this gown.
00:10:23It's the only way to match supreme glory of the Montworth family.
00:10:28This white dress was specially sent over by Rhaegar.
00:10:31No magic, no jewels, but I am completely happy with it.
00:10:35My dear sister, look at those rags on you.
00:10:39Did that punder dig up a burial shrub from some flea market in the black market?
00:10:50What?
00:11:13This is impossible!
00:11:15What kind of wicked dark magic is this?
00:11:17Oh my god! Could this be the legendary Saint Dragon's Silk that vanished a whole century ago?
00:11:26Honored lady, only the future Empress of the Empire is worthy of wearing this divine gown.
00:11:32Who, who exactly are you?
00:11:38Impossible! How could a cheap slut like her possess a royal artifact?
00:11:43This has to be some cheap parlor trick!
00:11:45I couldn't have misread it.
00:11:48Saint Dragon's Silk is a closely guarded royal treasure.
00:11:51Not even a duke has the right to touch it!
00:11:54Where, where on earth did you get this?
00:12:19Count Marcus, your presence truly brings immense honor to the Valeus' family.
00:12:25See that? This is the supreme glory that truly belongs to the nobility.
00:12:31Did your tramp of a fiancé get scared and crawl back into the sewers?
00:12:41What a joke. That beggar definitely took one look at Count Marcus' grand entrance and ran for the hills.
00:12:50Leora!
00:12:51Where the hell is that piece of trash? Are you going to keep making a fool of us here? How
00:12:58did I ever raise such a shameless daughter?
00:13:01Oh, my dear sister, you are pitiful to the extreme.
00:13:05You threw away a life of luxury, and now even the lowest exile is disgusted by you and dumps you!
00:13:11You are an absolute laughingstock right now!
00:13:13I will absolutely not allow you to drag this family's honor through the mud on such an important day!
00:13:19Since that beggar ran off, you are going to marry the old Count immediately!
00:13:23At least that might salvage some of our family's dignity!
00:13:27Absolutely not. I've already made a vow to Ragon.
00:13:32He is the only man I'm marrying in this life.
00:13:35The family's face comes first! It's not up to you anymore!
00:13:39Today, I'm tossing you into the old Count's bed myself if I have to!
00:13:43Let go of me! I'm not going!
00:13:45Let go of me!
00:13:59Let her go!
00:14:03Oh, my God! Is that really the exile?
00:14:06His aura, it's even more overbearing than a Duke's!
00:14:13Damn it!
00:14:15How can a filthy beggar have such an aura?
00:14:21What are you doing?
00:14:24I'm sorry.
00:14:25I had to deal with some family errands on the way here.
00:14:28I kept you waiting.
00:14:48This is the most precious heirloom my mother left me before she died.
00:14:52From this moment on, my life and my loyalty belong entirely to you.
00:14:57I swear, no matter if the future holds poverty or hardship,
00:15:02I will cherish it as much as I cherish my own life.
00:15:20By the God of Light.
00:15:22Why does the totem on this ring look exact like the Saint Dragon Ring worn by the previous Queen?
00:15:27As recorded in the Temple's ancient texts.
00:15:29I must be drunk.
00:15:30A poor nobody, stripped of his name, owning a royal treasure.
00:15:34Impossible.
00:15:35It's probably just a rusty piece of scrap metal.
00:15:42Your Highness.
00:15:47Your Highness.
00:15:50The rebels are beginning to make their move,
00:15:52and His Majesty the King is in grave danger.
00:15:58Your Highness?
00:16:00Who exactly are you?
00:16:11Why haven't you changed your dress yet?
00:16:14He just called you Your Highness.
00:16:16And what's this about rebels?
00:16:17What's going on?
00:16:19Leola said she wants a simple life.
00:16:21It's better if I take care of the rebels before telling her my true identity.
00:16:25In the harsh northern exile lands, the one with the hardest fists gets to be king.
00:16:29The boys are just used to teasing me with that old title.
00:16:31As for the rebels, they're just thugs trying to steal our turf.
00:16:36Did something happen?
00:16:37There is indeed an urgent matter I need to handle.
00:16:41I'm so sorry, but I promise to be back as soon as possible.
00:16:51We need to resolve this mess immediately.
00:16:54Pass down the order.
00:16:55Pick out the grandest apology gift and have it sent to the Baron's estate.
00:16:59My wife absolutely will not be wronged.
00:17:02Yes, Your Highness.
00:17:12Pick out the grandest apology gift and have it sent to the Baron's estate.
00:17:33noble exile's wife.
00:17:35What's wrong?
00:17:36Did your peaver husband dump you right after getting married?
00:17:42Don't tell me you secretly gave him some money to hire him to put on a show with you.
00:17:47Now that the act is over, he took the cash and ran off.
00:17:51Are you done talking?
00:17:52Can I leave now?
00:17:54No, no.
00:17:54You're hardly, I was going to do something.
00:17:56How did you do?
00:17:59Lyola!
00:18:00You're causing me trouble again.
00:18:02That piece of trap abandoned you at the ball and humiliated this entire family.
00:18:06Don't be angry, my lord.
00:18:09Lyola just isn't as capable as our Isolde are.
00:18:13We found such a wonderful patron in the Count.
00:18:32The Count is truly too generous.
00:18:35It is the absolute honor of our entire family that Isolade could form this union with you.
00:18:43Take a good look.
00:18:44Did you see that?
00:18:45That is power.
00:18:47I bet your tramp couldn't even afford a single gift for your family and scurried back to the slums, didn't
00:18:54he?
00:18:55Raheola had an emergency to attend to.
00:18:57He'll be back soon.
00:18:58As long as he treats me with genuine sincerity.
00:19:01I don't care about any of these things.
00:19:05Bullshit!
00:19:06Bullshit!
00:19:07He can't even produce a decent gift.
00:19:09He's a complete fraud!
00:19:11The Vavolosus family absolutely refuses to recognize this marriage!
00:19:21The Royal Protocol Department?
00:19:24Why are they here?
00:19:26And with so many treasures?
00:19:29By royal decree, for the esteemed bride, Leora, we hereby stow 100,000 top priest star magic crystals.
00:19:39Three volumes of high-tier magic scrolls lost for a century, and a bushel of deep-sea murphish-tier pearls
00:19:48as a wedding gift to the Velodius family.
00:19:56Please open the box for inspection.
00:20:01What?
00:20:04My God, since when did the Baron's family have royal connections?
00:20:08Could that exile actually be some powerful figure in disguise?
00:20:14What on earth is going on?
00:20:17Did Raius really send these gifts?
00:20:20Shut up, all of you!
00:20:22Think about it!
00:20:23How could a beggar who can't even afford a meal order around the Royal Protocol Department?
00:20:29Duke Marcus's father is the chief inquisitor of the Empire and is deeply valued by His Majesty.
00:20:34The Royal Family obviously sent this reward to us out of respect for the Duke.
00:20:38This trifling gift is just a small token of the Royal Family's appreciation for the Monthold family.
00:20:44There will only be more rewards like this in the future.
00:20:48No matter how capable Roshian is, he couldn't possibly summon the Royal Protocol Department.
00:20:54There must be some mistake.
00:20:58Now, I'll open it and show you what real power looks like.
00:21:20Marcus!
00:21:48How is this possible?
00:21:50You must have secretly learned some wicked witchcraft and just got lucky!
00:21:54How could an exile's wife break a royal seal?
00:22:09Exactly!
00:22:10To fully break a royal seal, you need pure bloodlines like my father's.
00:22:15I was repelced because I only used half of my bloodline power just now.
00:22:20This crazy woman definitely just got lucky.
00:22:24So that's it!
00:22:26Count Marcus is right!
00:22:28How could such a heavy royal treasure be meant for the wife of an exile?
00:22:32Leora, you just want to show off at every turn.
00:22:36Marrying an exile and then trying to show off with someone else's reward?
00:22:41You make me sick!
00:22:51Follow me!
00:22:52We ride to welcome the Queen back to the palace!
00:22:56Yes!
00:23:01You worthless piece of trash!
00:23:04You worthless piece of trash!
00:23:05Not only did you marry a filthy beggar, you actually dared to use witchcraft to ruin your sister's moment!
00:23:11How did I ever raise a daughter like you?
00:23:14You made me live in a leaky attic, let my stepmother cut my rations, and even tried to sell me
00:23:21off like livestock to that brutal old count for a bit of coin!
00:23:25From the very beginning, you've never treated me like a daughter!
00:23:28Shut up, you damn ungrateful wretch!
00:23:54This is the royal family's exclusive saint dragon totem?
00:24:09Leora, how dare you forge a royal totem?
00:24:13That is a capital offense that will destroy this entire family!
00:24:17Are you trying to get us all killed?
00:24:19I'm going to destroy this piece of junk right now!
00:24:23Stop!
00:24:25You want it back?
00:24:27Fine.
00:24:28Just give me a deep bow right now.
00:24:31Apolishize loudly for stealing my spotlight earlier, and I'll return it.
00:24:40I'm sorry.
00:24:42I offended you earlier.
00:24:45Now please, give it back.
00:24:54I've changed my mind.
00:24:56Since you insist it isn't a fake, then prove your innocence by the laws of the Count's house.
00:25:14If you dare to walk barefoot across this path of heart-burning thorns, I'll give the ring back.
00:25:25I'll give it back.
00:25:26How bad.
00:25:27In my past life, I suffered inhuman torture in the Duke's estate.
00:25:31The pain of betrayed by my closest kin was a thousand times worse than this poisonous thornfire.
00:25:58The thorn's poison sank deep into my flesh.
00:25:58I will get back the ring you gave me, no matter what.
00:26:02I will get back the ring you gave me, no matter what.
00:26:04The thorn's poison sank deep into my flesh.
00:26:07The magic fire felt like a thousand needles, drilling through my bones and into my skull.
00:26:14Every breath I took tasted like blood.
00:26:17My vision was already blown.
00:26:20But I couldn't stop.
00:26:22I couldn't fall.
00:26:32I made it across.
00:26:34Give me back the ring.
00:26:56My dear sister, you really are a perfectly obedient dog.
00:27:01What a pity. I changed my mind.
00:27:12That ring is a relic from Reyes' mother, his most cherished possession.
00:27:22I can't just watch these hypocritical demons destroy it.
00:27:29Since you can't bear to part with this piece of junk, then go straight to hell with it.
00:27:39I have no strength left to dodge.
00:27:42Raheus, I'm so sorry. I did my best.
00:27:47I did my best.
00:28:02Impossible! My magic! How did it drop to zero in an instant?
00:28:10Aureola, I knew you would come.
00:28:15You, how dare you, hurt my lover!
00:28:30Leora, I'm too late.
00:28:35Rai, I didn't lose your token.
00:28:40Reyes, you filthy street rat! How dare you trespass onto a baron's territory with your thugs!
00:28:46Insolent! How dare you disrespect His Highness the Prince!
00:28:55Absurd! How does a beggar suddenly turn into a prince?
00:28:59But those really are royal guards, and that's the royal dragon totem!
00:29:03My lord! Let low-class parl tricks confuse you.
00:29:08This tramp definitely stole a bag of gold, hired a bunch of wild mercery from the Hake Market, and dressed
00:29:13them in fake armor to intimidate us.
00:29:16Exactly! He's nothing but a beggar!
00:29:24So that's it! What a blazing fraud! How dare you hire cheap mercenaries to impersonate royal knights!
00:29:30Sister, you are truly pathetic. Your tramp of a husband actually dared to blaspheme the royal crown, just to salvage
00:29:36his laughable pride.
00:29:37Just wait, there won't even be intact corpses left of you!
00:29:39You are the ones blaspheming the crown!
00:29:50How dare you!
00:29:53Vamys, I merely took a trashy ring. Leora was the one who insisted on charging into the magic array. How
00:29:59stupid.
00:30:00Watch your mouth! Despicable tramp!
00:30:03You've already committed a felony by breaking into the baron's estate, and now you have the goal to disrespect a
00:30:08noble!
00:30:08Exactly! For the dignity of the nobility, they must be executed!
00:30:13Guards! Hear my command! Arrest all these frauds!
00:30:19No, don't.
00:30:22In the name of the royal crown, arrest these traitors.
00:30:27Loyalty until death!
00:30:31No, no!
00:30:32No, no!
00:30:34No, no!
00:30:36No, no!
00:30:38No!
00:30:44Marcus! Save me!
00:30:46You lunatic!
00:30:48Tell them to stop!
00:30:49The Count's estate will never let you get away with this!
00:30:53Liorla! Are you trying to drag the entire baron's estate down to the grave with you?
00:30:57Lord Marcus is an Imperial Count!
00:31:01A Count?
00:31:03You hurt Leola, so you'd better be prepared to die!
00:31:08Vile street rat!
00:31:10How dare you offend a noble?
00:31:12You're dead meat!
00:31:14Leola!
00:31:15You are an absolute disgrace to this family!
00:31:19Hurry up and kneel down to apologize to Count Marcus!
00:31:22You reduced Leola to this state,
00:31:24and I'm going to make you pay for it.
00:31:26A hundredfold!
00:31:37Bastard!
00:31:38Let go of me!
00:31:39My father is Cedric,
00:31:42the Chief Inquisitor of the Royal Law Enforcement.
00:31:45If you dare touch a hair on my head,
00:31:47you'll all be sent to the guillotine!
00:31:50What?
00:31:51Finally know how to be scared?
00:31:53You commoner playing prince!
00:31:55Get on your knees and lick my boots!
00:31:57Maybe I'll show some mercy,
00:31:59and ask my father to leave your corpse intact!
00:32:02Cedric?
00:32:03I never imagined the Royal Court still harbored such scum
00:32:07who'd let their own families work from the inside out.
00:32:22Lord Chief Inquisitor!
00:32:24That damned exile in Leola did all of this!
00:32:27It has absolutely nothing to do with our baron's estate!
00:32:30Father!
00:32:30You're finally here!
00:32:32Hurry and kill this beggar who's impersonating royalty!
00:32:47Your highness!
00:32:50I don't know how to do it!
00:33:06Impossible!
00:33:07He's just a lonely beggar!
00:33:09Exactly!
00:33:10Father!
00:33:10This is all a paid disguise!
00:33:13How could a real Royal Highness ever appear in some remote baron's estate?
00:33:16Those words made Cedric waver.
00:33:19He began to carefully size Rachis up.
00:33:21And my father chose that exact moment to instigate further.
00:33:24They told Cedric that Rachis was nothing but a low-born fraud.
00:33:27Cedric was convinced.
00:33:28He decided to make his move against Rachis.
00:33:39Stand down!
00:33:42Is this how the Royal Chief Inquisitor enforces the law?
00:33:45Without distinguishing right from wrong?
00:33:48Are you even worthy of the title of Inquisitor?
00:33:50Shut your mouth!
00:33:52Despicable peasant!
00:33:54Trampling on noble dignity is leaking the capital offense!
00:33:56My father is an Inquisitor, personally appointed by his Magister King!
00:34:01You have no right to judge him!
00:34:03I have no right?
00:34:05Do you have any idea what the consequences are for offending the Royal Crown?
00:34:11Your Majesty, His Highness the Prince is currently at Baron Karl's estate,
00:34:15and he has even entered into a marriage contract with the Baron's daughter.
00:34:19Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:34:20That brat Rachis!
00:34:22He's been away from the palace for so long,
00:34:25and he actually went and found true love without making a peep?
00:34:29I must go see for myself exactly what kind of destined woman
00:34:34managed to capture my cold-hearted son's heart.
00:34:44Cedric, you abuse your power.
00:34:47You are not fit to be the Chief Inquisitor.
00:34:49How dare you insult the law enforcement!
00:34:52You've got a lot of nerve!
00:35:00Lord Inquisitor, I beg you to see the truth!
00:35:03We have absolutely nothing to do with this Leora!
00:35:06From this moment on, our family severs all ties with Leora!
00:35:09Lord Inquisitor, they offended the Majesty of the Royal Crown.
00:35:13They must be severely punished.
00:35:15That's right, Father!
00:35:17That lowly beggar forged a royal identity and blasphemed the Crown!
00:35:21He must be executed!
00:35:23Leora was in danger, and it was all because of me.
00:35:26I had to protect him.
00:35:28Lord Inquisitor, Leora did all of this because of me.
00:35:31Please, spare him!
00:35:35Leora!
00:35:45Trying to escape!
00:35:47Law enforcement knights!
00:35:49Stop them!
00:35:51Block these traitors!
00:35:53Kill anyone who stands in our way!
00:36:15Rega, how are you holding up?
00:36:23A lowly street rat could never trample on the dignity of nobles.
00:36:27Don't worry.
00:36:28He'll be dead any second now.
00:36:30Exactly!
00:36:31This is the price you have to pay.
00:36:34Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:36:42Just accept your fate like a good girl, my dear sister.
00:36:45Watching the man you love die right in front of you, doesn't it feel fantastic?
00:36:48I couldn't let Rayason die, even if it meant throwing away my dignity, as long as Rayason could live.
00:36:55I'm begging you, please let Rayolin go!
00:36:57I will take the blame for everything!
00:36:59Shut up, Leora.
00:37:00You are not allowed to beg them.
00:37:04Ryan, you got hurt because of me.
00:37:07I don't want you to die.
00:37:13What a tear-jerking couple.
00:37:15In that case, you can both just die together!
00:37:18Filthy trap.
00:37:20This is what happens when you cross me!
00:37:45Who dares touch my son on the soil of my empire?
00:37:49His majesty, the king!
00:37:54That son!
00:37:55Is the king calling that bregid his son?
00:37:58He really is his highness, the prince.
00:38:04Leora, what's wrong?
00:38:09Quickly!
00:38:10Have the chief priest come over immediately to heal the prince!
00:38:13Hurry and get Leora back for treatment.
00:38:15I want her completely safe and sound.
00:38:18Yes, your highness!
00:38:27Your highness, all the traitors have been apprehended.
00:38:30Please give the order for their punishment.
00:38:32My son, you...
00:38:37Son, impossible.
00:38:40This is absolutely impossible.
00:38:41How could he be the prince?
00:38:43Isn't he a beggar?
00:38:44How could he be his highness, the prince?
00:38:47Execute all members of Baron Karl's household without delay.
00:38:51Your highness, spare my life.
00:38:53Chief Inquisitor Cedric, you have abused your power.
00:38:56From this moment on, you and Marcus are stripped of your titles and thrown into the Frost Dungeon to await
00:39:00trial.
00:39:01Your highness, spare us!
00:39:02Your majesty, spare us!
00:39:03It's all my fault!
00:39:04We truly had no idea of your highness's true identity!
00:39:08Just because you didn't know my identity,
00:39:10does that give you the right to trample on others' dignity so recklessly?
00:39:13Is Lee did all of this!
00:39:14She was behind it all!
00:39:15It has nothing to do with me!
00:39:17Marcus!
00:39:18You coward!
00:39:19You were the one who wanted to kill them all along!
00:39:21Your majesty, the king, I beg of you, please forgive us for the sake of our family's century of loyalty
00:39:25to the Empire.
00:39:26Enough!
00:39:28Raycon, executing Baron Karl's family is far too cruel.
00:39:32Just exile them to the Frost All Wasteland.
00:39:34As for Marcus and his father, stripping them of their titles is already the most severe punishment.
00:39:39Father, my child, that girl is still waiting for you to take care of her.
00:39:45You may go.
00:40:00Father, you're finally awake.
00:40:02I have no idea what exactly happened that day, but I remember someone saved us.
00:40:08How are you feeling?
00:40:10Don't worry, we're safe now.
00:40:12The priest has already healed us, so just get some rest.
00:40:14Regan, where are we?
00:40:17What on earth is going on?
00:40:18The king saved us.
00:40:20The king!
00:40:25Father, I want Leora to be my queen.
00:40:30But Leora is merely a baron's daughter.
00:40:33If she becomes queen, many will stand in your way.
00:40:37She risked her own life to protect me.
00:40:40Besides, Leora and I have already sealed our marriage pact.
00:40:44She will be my queen, no matter what.
00:40:50Very well.
00:40:52I'm glad you've found true love.
00:40:55However, according to royal custom,
00:40:57a commoner must pass the royal trial to wear the queen's crown.
00:41:02I accept.
00:41:05But I have one condition.
00:41:09Until Leora passes the trial,
00:41:12you must never reveal your true identity to her.
00:41:16Otherwise, she will fail the trial and lose the right to be queen.
00:41:21You have my word.
00:41:24Right before I passed out,
00:41:26I clearly heard someone address Rhaegar.
00:41:28Your Highness!
00:41:29Yes, Your Highness!
00:41:30Rhaegar,
00:41:31right before I blacked out,
00:41:33didn't they call you Your Highness?
00:41:34And didn't the king call you his son?
00:41:39You misheard.
00:41:40It was because of this old royal armor I'm wearing.
00:41:43They mistook me for a member of the royal family.
00:41:46The king cleared up the misunderstanding later.
00:41:48What about my family and Marcus?
00:41:50Baron Carl's entire family was exiled to the Frostfall Wasteland.
00:41:54And Marcus and Cedric have been stripped of their title.
00:41:58Leora,
00:41:59let me protect you from now on.
00:42:01The king has settled us in Duke Edmund's castle.
00:42:04I've been enlisted in the knight's army,
00:42:06and you'll be working as a maid in the Duke's estate.
00:42:09When I'm not around,
00:42:11the power hidden inside this ring will protect you.
00:42:16Get up right now and scrub the stables,
00:42:19you new piece of trash,
00:42:20or I'll skin you alive!
00:42:22But the whip stopped dead in mid-air.
00:42:24I realized Martha was terrified of Rhaegar.
00:42:35My lord,
00:42:37I was blind to not see who you are.
00:42:39I'll take my leave at once.
00:42:46I have to report to the barracks now.
00:42:49Wait for me in the castle.
00:42:51Lady Catherine,
00:42:52you are Duke Edmund's daughter,
00:42:54and the prince is the man you've set your sights on.
00:42:57We can't let this cheap maid taint him.
00:43:13Leora,
00:43:14your job is to tend to these flowers.
00:43:17You bitch!
00:43:19This is Lady Catherine's garden!
00:43:21Get your filthy hands off those flowers right now!
00:43:26Lady Catherine,
00:43:27Leora is...
00:43:30She is nothing but a lowly maid.
00:43:32Anyone who tramples my garden must be punished.
00:43:38Slut!
00:43:39Go clean the stables in the backyard!
00:43:40Don't even think about eating until it's done!
00:43:53What do you think you're doing?
00:43:54I assigned her!
00:43:55What will you have to touch her?
00:43:56Know your place, housekeeper.
00:43:57A lowly slave is supposed to do the dirty work.
00:43:59This is Lady Catherine's order.
00:44:01Martha wanted to stand up for me,
00:44:03but Lady Catherine is the Duke's daughter.
00:44:05There was nothing she could do,
00:44:06and I didn't want Martha making enemies because of me.
00:44:09I accept the punishment.
00:44:24Take a break!
00:44:25If you keep this up,
00:44:26your hands will be ruined.
00:44:28Let me help you.
00:44:41Lady Catherine ordered that she must finish it all by herself.
00:44:48You idiot!
00:44:50You have no idea who she is!
00:44:52Her husband is...
00:44:56A mere housekeeper dares to yell at me?
00:44:59Since your heart bleeds for her so much,
00:45:02you can get punished right alongside her.
00:45:29Lady Catherine, this ring is engraved with a royal totem.
00:45:34This belongs to the Prince.
00:45:37Tina, you know what to do.
00:45:39Something like this shouldn't be in the hands of a cheap maid.
00:45:47This ring belongs to a noble!
00:45:49You filthy bitch!
00:45:50You thief!
00:45:51How dare you steal!
00:45:58I wasn't going to lose the ring this time, no matter what.
00:46:02You cheap thief!
00:46:03Since you want it so badly,
00:46:06I'll burn you and this ring to ashes together!
00:46:27You worthless slave!
00:46:28How dare you lay a hand on me!
00:46:37Set up the stake immediately!
00:46:39I want her dead right now!
00:46:42Yes, Lady Catherine.
00:46:43They're going to kill the Prince's wife?
00:46:46No!
00:46:46I have to report this to the Duke immediately!
00:46:50Duke Edmund, I hope you don't mind that I've settled Leora in your castle for her trial.
00:46:57Rest assured, your majesty, she is the Prince's wife after all.
00:47:01I will take good care of her.
00:47:03Terrible news!
00:47:04Lady Catherine has lost her mind!
00:47:07She's tying Lady Lima to the stake to burn her alive!
00:47:25Look at you, you lowly bug.
00:47:28You're about to be turned to ashes.
00:47:33Stop!
00:47:34Put out that fire!
00:47:40How dare you speak to me!
00:47:42This lowly slave stole a noble's magic ring!
00:47:45By law, she deserves to burn at the stake!
00:47:48No one is going to stop this!
00:47:50You!
00:47:50You rebellious wretch!
00:47:52Shut your mouth!
00:47:55The Duke lunged forward like a madman and slapped Catherine hard across the face.
00:48:00Father!
00:48:02You're hitting me over some cheap slave?
00:48:07Do you have any idea who she is?
00:48:14She's nothing but a maid!
00:48:17I don't care!
00:48:18She has to die today!
00:48:19I'm going to burn her to ashes!
00:48:26Father, what's possessed you?
00:48:29Why would you hit me to protect a pathetic maid?
00:48:32She stole from a noble!
00:48:41Nonsense!
00:48:42It hasn't been proven that she stole the ring!
00:48:45This concerns the reputation of the Duke's estate!
00:48:48We must investigate this thoroughly!
00:48:56This slut must have used some bewitching trick to beguile all of you!
00:49:02For the dignity of the nobility, you lowly slave must die today!
00:49:07Move!
00:49:08No!
00:49:10No!
00:49:11No!
00:49:13Shhh!
00:49:39Leora, are you okay?
00:49:40Leaning against his chest, tears spilled from my eyes.
00:49:43But panic quickly set in.
00:49:46Rhaegar had laid hands on the Duke's daughter just to save me.
00:49:48Rhaegar, are you crazy?
00:49:50This is the Duke's territory.
00:49:52Trespassing and injuring the Duke's daughter is a capital fence.
00:49:57Lord Duke! Have mercy!
00:50:00It's all my fault. I'll take all the blame. Please let him go.
00:50:03Leora!
00:50:04As long as I could save his life, I was willing to give up everything.
00:50:19Rhaegar and I knelt in the driving snow, waiting for our punishment.
00:50:25You injured my daughter, and by the rules, you must be severely punished.
00:50:31I sentence Leora to three days of confinement in the Frost Cellar.
00:50:35Thank you for your mercy, Lord Duke.
00:50:37I never expected the punishment to be so light.
00:50:40Just three days of confinement.
00:50:42I happily cow-toed to thank the Duke.
00:50:48Seeing that I was safe, Rhaegar left once again.
00:50:53The Frost Cellar was freezing, but to my surprise, Martha brought me a heavy coat and a brazier.
00:51:09Didn't the Duke send me here to be punished?
00:51:11The Duke specifically ordered me to take good care of you.
00:51:14Just rest easy for these three days and let your wounds heal.
00:51:18Martha and the Duke's attitude toward me felt so strange.
00:51:21What in the world was going on?
00:51:26My Lords, Leora has been settled in.
00:51:29The brazier and food have all been prepared.
00:51:32You may leave.
00:51:37Father Leora was almost burned alive today.
00:51:39How much longer does this damn trial have to go on?
00:51:45Ragian, the trial has reached its final stage.
00:51:49Once she passes my test, you can announce to the entire Empire that Leora is your queen.
00:51:55She will absolutely pass. I believe in her.
00:51:58I thought I was living peacefully, completely unaware.
00:52:02That the danger had never stopped.
00:52:04Why on earth does a cheap slave get to enjoy a brazier and good food while locked in the cellar?
00:52:13Lady Catherine, should we make our move?
00:52:16This time, I want to watch her get torn to shreds with my own eyes.
00:52:25Is everything ready?
00:52:27Don't worry, my lady.
00:52:29I've starved them for three days and three nights.
00:52:48I could faintly hear some blood-drecking grounds, but I didn't see anything unusual.
00:53:00Go on, rip her to shreds.
00:53:12My son, rip her to shreds!
00:53:18Is everything ready to be finished?
00:53:19I don't know.
00:53:24Why are you doing this?
00:53:25I don't know that you will lose you.
00:53:25Who won't solve your problems?
00:53:26Why are you gonna smell?
00:53:31Who won't solve?
00:53:33Who won't solve your problem?
00:53:34Who won't solve them?
00:53:34And be at all the problem.
00:53:34open. Catherine's twisted
00:53:36face emerged from the shadows,
00:53:39with Tina behind her,
00:53:40tightly gripping a thick iron chin.
00:53:43Catherine!
00:53:44What else do you want?
00:53:46The Duke has already handed down my
00:53:48punishment. You can't just do
00:53:50whatever you want!
00:53:54Do you
00:53:54really think my father would
00:53:56go against my wishes
00:53:58for a lowly slave?
00:54:00Tina was holding back three
00:54:02massive, vicious wolves.
00:54:04Help me!
00:54:10Release them!
00:54:11Let my darlings have a good taste
00:54:13of this peasant's flesh!
00:54:21Terror instantly flooded my mind,
00:54:23pale-faced. I kept
00:54:25backing away, until a stone
00:54:27tripped me, and I fell.
00:54:31Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
00:54:34Enjoy your final moments!
00:54:37I'll come collect your corpse
00:54:38first thing tomorrow morning.
00:54:40There was no way out,
00:54:42and Reyes wasn't here.
00:54:43Watching the savage wolves
00:54:45close in,
00:54:46I closed my eyes
00:54:48in total despair.
00:55:04I waited hopelessly for death to come,
00:55:06but the pain I expected never arrived.
00:55:09A beam of holy light appeared
00:55:10right in front of me.
00:55:19I recognized him.
00:55:21He was the old man who spoke up
00:55:22for me at the square.
00:55:23You're the old man who was with the Duke.
00:55:26Why did you save me?
00:55:32Give it back!
00:55:33That's Reyes' token to me!
00:55:38This is a sacred blood path.
00:55:41As long as you swear in blood
00:55:43to leave your pathetic
00:55:44tramp of a husband forever,
00:55:47not only will you walk out of here alive,
00:55:49but you'll also receive
00:55:51endless wealth.
00:55:53But if you refuse
00:55:54and insist on choosing this ring,
00:55:57you will die
00:55:58in this ice cellar,
00:55:59just like those three wolves.
00:56:02He gave me two choices.
00:56:03On one side,
00:56:04power and wealth.
00:56:05On the other,
00:56:07death
00:56:07and a beggar
00:56:08who had absolutely nothing.
00:56:09It was a cruel test.
00:56:15My choice is.
00:56:24But compared to losing Rhaegar,
00:56:26all this power and wealth
00:56:28meant absolutely nothing.
00:56:30I don't care about your wealth.
00:56:33I only want him.
00:56:38Even if I die here,
00:56:40I will never abandon Rhaegon.
00:56:43Do it.
00:56:47I made my choice
00:56:49and I saw him cast a spell.
00:56:51I squeezed my eyes shut,
00:56:53waiting for the end.
00:56:59Congratulations, Leora.
00:57:01You have passed the trial.
00:57:03Trial?
00:57:05What on earth are you talking about?
00:57:08You are brave and loyal.
00:57:11Now,
00:57:12I will tell you
00:57:13the whole truth.
00:57:24Damn it!
00:57:25Why does someone
00:57:26always save this cheap slave?
00:57:29My lady,
00:57:30the Frost Magic Core
00:57:31that sustains this teller
00:57:33is buried right underneath.
00:57:35If we detonate it,
00:57:37the entire cellar
00:57:38will cave in
00:57:38and no one can save them.
00:57:46Good!
00:57:47She must die today.
00:57:49Detonate it right now!
00:57:51I'm going to blow them to pieces!
00:58:03Actually,
00:58:04Rhaegon is...
00:58:05The old man was about to tell me the truth,
00:58:07but suddenly,
00:58:08the ground beneath my feet started shaking.
00:58:11What's going on?
00:58:12An earthquake?
00:58:13Get out!
00:58:13Quick!
00:58:14Neither of us had time to react.
00:58:16A terrifying force surged from beneath us,
00:58:19throwing me off balance and hard onto the ground.
00:58:22Before I could process it,
00:58:23and a devastating explosion shattered the stone floor from below.
00:58:27Boulders came crashing down on us.
00:58:29I was paralyzed on the ground with nowhere to run,
00:58:32but the old man threw himself in front of me
00:58:35and cast a protection spell.
00:58:37But the force of the collapse was too terrifying.
00:58:40Countless huge rocks smashed against the magic barrier
00:58:43with a sickening cracking sound,
00:58:45and the old man was severely injured because of it.
00:58:49What's up?
00:58:49A barrier completely shattered under the relentless bombardment of boulders.
00:58:54An avalanche of falling rocks,
00:58:56and heavy chunks of ice instantly buried up.
00:59:01The Selen was reduced to ruins.
00:59:04Luckily, we survived.
00:59:06The old man had been crushed by a boulder while trying to save me.
00:59:09He was bleeding profusely.
00:59:12Hey!
00:59:14How are you holding up?
00:59:16I couldn't just watch him die like this.
00:59:19I had a little bit of healing magic to help him.
00:59:31Ryaga, your judgment was right.
00:59:34This is the Empire's most perfect queen.
00:59:38I poured everything into healing him,
00:59:40hoping we could hold on until rescue arrived.
00:59:48That direction is the cellar.
00:59:50Leora!
00:59:56It's finally over.
00:59:58That lowly slave and that meddlesome fool are dead under this pile of rubble.
01:00:02With a collapse this severe,
01:00:04they won't even find a single bone.
01:00:17What?
01:00:18What did you do to the people inside?
01:00:20I had Tina detonate the magic core.
01:00:24They must be crushed flat by the rocks.
01:00:27It's just a filthy slave.
01:00:30Why are you so freaked out?
01:00:31You lunatic!
01:00:32Quick, order everyone to dig right now!
01:00:35If we don't save them,
01:00:36our entire family will suffer unimaginable consequences!
01:00:40Father, have you lost your mind?
01:00:42They're just cheap slaves.
01:00:44Who cares if they die?
01:00:53Father, you...
01:01:08Where is she?
01:01:11Where is Leora?
01:01:19I heard Raius' voice.
01:01:22He came to save me.
01:01:23Where is Leora?
01:01:25What happened to her?
01:01:27Your Highness,
01:01:28are you looking for that lowly slave?
01:01:30Stop looking!
01:01:31She and that meddlesome old man
01:01:33are buried under this pile of rocks.
01:01:36They're dead and gone!
01:01:38Your Highness,
01:01:39I will send men to rescue them immediately.
01:01:44I'm going to bury you with them!
01:01:46Your Highness,
01:01:48why are you raising arms against me
01:01:50over a lowly slave?
01:01:51All of you are turning against me for that slave.
01:01:53A slave?
01:01:55She is the future queen of the Empire.
01:01:57And that old man you buried down there with her
01:01:59is my father,
01:02:01the king of the Empire!
01:02:04The queen and the king?
01:02:06Oh my god, what have we done?
01:02:08No!
01:02:10Your entire family
01:02:12can prepare to join them in the grave!
01:02:17Regan!
01:02:18I see her!
01:02:23Riegar noticed my cry for help.
01:02:27Leora!
01:02:46Thank the gods,
01:02:47you're alive.
01:02:48Leaning into his familiar embrace,
01:02:51the sheer willpower I had been running on
01:02:53finally relaxed.
01:02:58If this child hadn't risked her life
01:03:00to cast healing magic on me,
01:03:02I would already be a corpse.
01:03:05It was simply the right thing to do.
01:03:11Suddenly,
01:03:12the old man transformed.
01:03:20His clothes,
01:03:21his face.
01:03:22He was the king of the Empire.
01:03:24It really is the king!
01:03:29What have I done?
01:03:31The king looked at me gently
01:03:33and declared that I had passed the royal trial.
01:03:36Leora,
01:03:37congratulations.
01:03:39You have passed the royal trial.
01:03:42A trial?
01:03:44Just as I was feeling confused,
01:03:46Rion told me the truth.
01:03:48I'm sorry for hiding my identity.
01:03:51I am the prince of the Empire.
01:03:54And you are the only one
01:03:55I acknowledge as my queen.
01:03:57Riegar told me that to become the queen,
01:03:59one must pass the royal trial.
01:04:01And as of this moment,
01:04:03I had passed it.
01:04:05His Majesty handed down the punishment
01:04:07to the Duke and the others.
01:04:09Your Majesty,
01:04:10my daughter Catherine was foolish.
01:04:12Please spare her life.
01:04:14I am willing to accept any punishment.
01:04:17Then half of your territory
01:04:19shall be stripped from you
01:04:20as punishment.
01:04:22Thank you,
01:04:23Your Majesty.
01:04:25Raffaeus had saved me once again.
01:04:28He took me away from the castle,
01:04:29deciding to bring me home
01:04:31and announce my existence
01:04:33to the entire Empire.
01:04:43Leora,
01:04:44to become the queen,
01:04:45you must possess a soul
01:04:46that bends to no power.
01:04:48This is a centuries-old royal tradition.
01:04:50It was never my intention
01:04:52to deceive you.
01:04:53Can you forgive me?
01:04:55The royal trial was cruel and ruthless,
01:04:58but the look in his eyes
01:04:59held only pure love.
01:05:01Seeing his tense face
01:05:03filled with guilt,
01:05:04I chose to forgive him.
01:05:06Rehaean,
01:05:06I love you for who you are,
01:05:08whether you're an exile
01:05:09or a prince.
01:05:10As long as you don't betray me,
01:05:12I'm willing to stand by your side.
01:05:18Leora,
01:05:19my wife,
01:05:21I love you.
01:05:38Since Leora has passed the royal trial,
01:05:41there's no need to wait.
01:05:42Pass down my decree.
01:05:44Begin preparations for the grandest royal wedding immediately.
01:05:47Your Majesty,
01:05:48thank you so much for your kindness,
01:05:50but a wedding isn't necessary.
01:05:52Raucas and I have already made our vows in the church.
01:05:55Though it was a simple ceremony,
01:05:57it's the most precious memory of my life.
01:06:00Since Raucas has chosen you,
01:06:02I won't let you suffer any more grievances.
01:06:05This is what you deserve.
01:06:09It's all right,
01:06:10Leora.
01:06:11You deserve the best this world has to offer.
01:06:13I want to announce to the whole continent
01:06:15that you are the one and only future lady of Arthurian Empire.
01:06:22Right,
01:06:22whatever you say.
01:06:27The date is sent
01:06:28for the holy fire sacrifice in three days.
01:06:32I want to personally crown you
01:06:34under the witness of all our people and the gods.
01:06:47Looking up at the solemn temple,
01:06:49I couldn't stop feeling nervous.
01:06:51In my past life,
01:06:53I endured endless cold stares and schemes from the nobles here
01:06:56and even lost my life.
01:06:59This time,
01:07:00I have someone by my side.
01:07:04I've waited too long for this day.
01:07:07Today,
01:07:07under the witness of the holy fire,
01:07:09I'm going to announce to the whole continent
01:07:11that you are my one and only love
01:07:14and the sole queen of the empire.
01:07:16The royal rules are so strict.
01:07:19I'm afraid I might stop at this grand ceremony
01:07:21and it'll reflect badly on you.
01:07:25Silly.
01:07:26With me here,
01:07:27you don't need to bow your head to anyone,
01:07:29much less worry about a thing.
01:07:31Leave everything to me
01:07:32and get ready to embrace the glory that belongs to you.
01:07:58something urgent came up that I need to handle right now.
01:08:01Take this runestone and go straight to the oracle's prime seat
01:08:04on the top floor without temple and wait for me.
01:08:07That seat belongs only to you.
01:08:11Okay,
01:08:12I'll wait for you there.
01:08:15I know that when he next appears in front of everyone,
01:08:18he will be the sole prince of Aetheria,
01:08:20and I will be at the very top waiting for my husband to come home.
01:08:40Without regard by my side,
01:08:41the nobles who once tried to trample me underfoot
01:08:43were once again giving me greedy and disdainful looks.
01:08:46But I didn't feel a sin of fear anymore.
01:08:48The runestone Rhaegar gave me led me straight to the oracle's prime seat.
01:08:52So this is the place he prepared for me.
01:08:55Stop right there.
01:08:56The queen's restricted area is ahead.
01:08:58Not even a duchess would dare step foot here without a royal decree.
01:09:01What gives a woman without even a noble crust the right to go up?
01:09:04I had no idea I needed to wear a crest.
01:09:06My husband arranged this seat for me.
01:09:13Oh my God, did I hear that right?
01:09:15Your husband, who didn't even have a noble crest,
01:09:18set you up with the queen's exclusive seat.
01:09:19You've got to be joking.
01:09:20A commoner literally throwing her life away for vanity,
01:09:23spouting such a massive in the temple.
01:09:25Do you want the inquisition guard to hang you on the spot?
01:09:31This is the proof my husband gave me.
01:09:47This is the unique royal mark.
01:09:50Who exactly are you?
01:09:52Just as I was about to tell them who the owner of this runestone was,
01:09:55a wildly arrogant laugh, dripping with raging malice, interrupted me.
01:09:59Lyra!
01:10:00Long time no see!
01:10:02I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you!
01:10:06Mia, daughter of Duke Hestia.
01:10:08Before the Valoricious family completely fell from grace,
01:10:11she used to be my old neighbor.
01:10:13She loved throwing herself around at major banquets,
01:10:17desperately trying to marry her way up the social ladder.
01:10:21I heard you married an exile stripped of his name.
01:10:25What?
01:10:26Are you so desperate now that you're stealing royal tokens and coming to a place like this to seduce men?
01:10:31I've never had such filthy thoughts.
01:10:34I'm standing here simply because this seat belongs to me.
01:10:37Still lying?
01:10:39Do you really think you can catch the royal family's attention with some fake stolen runstone?
01:10:45His Highness the Prince is so noble, he'd never bat an eye at a bottom-flitter like you who hangs
01:10:51around with exiles.
01:10:52The Duke's family is currently deeply favored by his majesty.
01:10:56Only someone with noble blood like Lady Mia is worthy of the royal family.
01:10:59Exactly.
01:11:00Who knows?
01:11:01After today's sacrifice ceremony, Lady Mia might just become the future queen of the empire.
01:11:05There's no room for a peasant like you to make a fool of yourself here.
01:11:08If they only knew that the exile they've been trampling on and humiliating was the very prince they revere so
01:11:12much,
01:11:13the look on their faces would be absolutely priceless.
01:11:18Is that so?
01:11:20Are you really that confident that you can become the queen?
01:11:25Mind your own business!
01:11:28Even if that queen's throne isn't mine,
01:11:30it definitely won't go to a lower-class peasant like you!
01:11:35Don't think I don't know your game.
01:11:36You sneak into the temple with a fake runstone just to find a chance to seduce His Highness the Prince.
01:11:41You're so shameless!
01:11:43In Mia's mind, the only reason a woman would try so hard to stand here is to sell herself for
01:11:49power.
01:11:49She doesn't get it at all.
01:11:51I couldn't care less about any of that.
01:11:53Look, everyone!
01:11:55Lyora Velatis threw away her noble status to marry a penless, disgraced exiled!
01:11:59She definitely reeks of a cursed stench!
01:12:06Good heavens!
01:12:08How did an exiled's family member get into the temple?
01:12:10Look at how ragged she is!
01:12:12She's practically polluting this holy ground!
01:12:14No wonder I felt a foul aura getting near her.
01:12:17Kick her out right now before her dilty curse rubs off on us!
01:12:20Guards, guards, what are you standing around for?
01:12:23Grab this wretch and toss her out of the temple right now!
01:12:35Open your eyes and take a good look.
01:12:38This is a Top Gear Royal token.
01:12:40Let's see who dares touch me today.
01:12:44You idiots!
01:12:45This is just some junk a street rat uses to scam people!
01:12:49Don't let this lying bitch fool you!
01:12:52Give it back!
01:12:56Oops!
01:12:57I'm so sorry.
01:12:58My hand slipped.
01:12:59This stone might actually command royal authority, but to me it's just my husband's token of love.
01:13:06Mia didn't just smash a rock.
01:13:08She smashed her own family's lifeline.
01:13:12Mia, I promise you, you're going to regret this foolish act today.
01:13:16Regret?
01:13:17That's hilarious!
01:13:19I smashed a piece of trash you picked up from the street.
01:13:22So what?
01:13:23What are you going to demand?
01:13:25I buy you a throne in return?
01:13:33Guards!
01:13:35As the daughter of a duke,
01:13:37I order you to throw this crazy woman out immediately!
01:13:44Since Lady Mia gave the order,
01:13:46get out you crazy woman!
01:13:48You have no right to kick me out of the temple.
01:13:50The Holy Fire Sacrifice is a sacred moment for the Empire that only happens once a century.
01:13:55If you screw up the ceremony, can you afford to take the blame?
01:13:59You bitch!
01:14:00I'm going to teach you a lesson today!
01:14:03Please calm down, Lady Mia.
01:14:05She's right.
01:14:05The Sacrifice Ceremony allows every citizen of the Empire to attend.
01:14:08We really don't have the authority to throw her out.
01:14:10The ceremony is about to start.
01:14:12His Highness the Prince will arrive at any moment.
01:14:14If you make a scene now and disturb him, it'll mean big trouble.
01:14:18Consider yourself lucky.
01:14:20But if you're staying for the ceremony, you need to stay where you belong.
01:14:24Kick her to the commoner's area at the very back.
01:14:28It's filthy and rubbed down.
01:14:30Completely fitting for her.
01:14:34Don't let her stench of poverty offend His Highness the Prince.
01:14:38Normally, I'd never let her humiliate me like this.
01:14:41But today is different.
01:14:44Rayon prepared for this ceremony for far too long.
01:14:47I can't ruin his plans just for a moment of spite.
01:14:49You don't need to push me.
01:14:51I can walk myself.
01:14:54I'll make you all understand that your true identity doesn't change just because of where
01:14:59you sit.
01:15:00You'll regret this soon enough.
01:15:06If it were my past life, I'd probably think this was a massive humiliation.
01:15:10But now, compared to the hypocritical scheming up in the noble seats, I actually feel at ease
01:15:15here.
01:15:16Maya always thinks a seating arrangement dictates a person's worth.
01:15:20She has no idea that true brilliance never needs to be proven by stepping on others.
01:15:26The ceremony is starting.
01:15:28Ryola said he'd come right after he finishes his business.
01:15:32All I need to do is wait for him here quietly.
01:15:34How is this fair?
01:15:36You've fallen so low, yet you still act like you're so high and mighty.
01:15:39Just die!
01:15:46Impossible!
01:15:47What the hell was that?
01:15:49What the hell was that?
01:16:19Arpas Veshek Siraf.
01:16:21In my past life, his eye of truth saw through so many of the nobles' filthy schemes.
01:16:26He was also the only one who didn't trample on me.
01:16:31Mia always wears her ambition on her sleeve.
01:16:34She thinks as long as she bows low enough and acts pious enough, the arts bishop will naturally
01:16:39bless her, paving her way to becoming the queen.
01:16:55Under the shocked gaze of thousands of top Triart's elites,
01:17:00This highly esteemed archbishop.
01:17:02Someone even the king shows deference to has stepped into this corner.
01:17:07The archbishop must have seen the cursed filth on that bitch Leora.
01:17:13Leora, I am going to watch you get judged by divine power and be torn to pieces.
01:17:22Everyone thinks I'm just garbage waiting to be swept away.
01:17:26Too bad they guessed wrong.
01:17:38The royal guards failed in their duty, letting Her Highness the Queen suffer such indignity in this filthy place.
01:17:46I deserve a thousand deaths.
01:17:59Queen?
01:18:01Impossible!
01:18:02Look closely, Your Grace!
01:18:04She's just an exiled wife who married a pupit!
01:18:14Ignorant fool!
01:18:16Are you blind?
01:18:18She wears the royal ring on her finger.
01:18:21What right do you have to question the queen here?
01:18:27Impossible!
01:18:28Your Grace!
01:18:29Grace, you must have mistaken her for someone else.
01:18:31She was abandoned by her family and publicly chose a begging exiled.
01:18:35The whole world, Dile, knows this.
01:18:39Insolence towards the queen must be punished.
01:18:45Ah!
01:18:46Ah!
01:18:46Ah!
01:18:47Ah!
01:18:48Ah!
01:18:49Ah!
01:18:50Ah!
01:19:09So this is how he was always meant to look.
01:19:11This farce aimed at me is finally coming to an end.
01:19:24I'm sorry I'm late.
01:19:26Honestly, whether he is wearing rags or heavy royal armor,
01:19:30as long as the way he looks at me hasn't changed,
01:19:33he is still the husband I chose back then.
01:19:35Were you the one who just said,
01:19:38my wife isn't worthy to sit here?
01:19:45Your Highness, let me explain.
01:19:48It's truly a misunderstanding.
01:19:49I really didn't know Leora was her Highness the Queen.
01:19:53If I had Noon, I wouldn't have shown her an ounce of disrespect.
01:20:02How do you want to punish her?
01:20:06Your Highness, stay your wrath.
01:20:09I acted foolishly and without thought.
01:20:12I beg you, pardon my ignorance this once.
01:20:15You angered my wife, begging me as useless.
01:20:21Your Grace the Queen.
01:20:22Our houses were once neighbors after all.
01:20:25By our old bond, please speak a word of grace on my behalf.
01:20:28You repent not out of true remorse,
01:20:31but only because I am your queen.
01:20:34If the person sitting here today were truly just a commoner without any background,
01:20:39they'd probably have no choice but to swallow all that humoration in silence.
01:20:42Since she made a mistake,
01:20:44don't use old ties as an excuse.
01:20:46She should face whatever punishment the Imperial Law dictates.
01:20:52Mia, daughter of the Duke,
01:20:55has blasphemed the Queen with malicious intent.
01:20:59She is hereby stripped of her surname
01:21:01and permanently banished from the city.
01:21:07Watching them get thrown out like trash,
01:21:10I don't even feel the slightest thrill of revenge.
01:21:13I just find it absurd.
01:21:15Let go of me!
01:21:16Even the most arrogant nobles can get scared.
01:21:18Father, save me!
01:21:20I want to be kicked out!
01:21:22It is all a scam.
01:21:24Everything's taken care of.
01:21:27Rhaegar, there are too many people here.
01:21:29I can walk up myself.
01:21:32No.
01:21:33I want everyone in this hall to open their eyes and see clearly.
01:21:36From today on, you are mine.
01:21:38No one will ever wrong you again.
01:21:40Back in the Belarus family,
01:21:42whenever I was wronged,
01:21:43Father would just tell me to consider the greater good.
01:21:46So this is what it feels like to be fiercely protected in someone's arms.
01:21:52Mia dreamed of climbing to this position.
01:21:55She always thought she could get everything by stepping on others' dignity.
01:21:58Never realizing that it was her own greed and malice that ruined her life.
01:22:03Empire, hear my command.
01:22:06Leora Valoris is the one and only Queen of Othurian.
01:22:10Long live Her Highness the Queen.
01:22:29Empire, hear my command.
01:22:31I hereby declare that during this moment on,
01:22:34all discriminant laws against exiles within the Empire
01:22:37are completely abolished.
01:22:42Because I, too,
01:22:44was once that exile you so casually trampled on.
01:22:46And the Queen you just relentlessly humiliated
01:22:49was my only salvation when I was trapped in the dark.
01:22:53In the past,
01:22:54all I wanted was a simple life free of scheming.
01:22:56I never expected that Raffas would not only save me,
01:23:00but almost personally dismantle all the injustices of this world for my sake.
01:23:04How lucky I am to have met him.
01:23:22Light the holy fire!
01:23:24Burn every last one of those shameful registries
01:23:27that track exiles in the lower class.
01:23:33Watching the fire consume everything.
01:23:35The cage of social class that trapped me for two lifetimes
01:23:39finally collapsed.
01:23:41Raka used his power to build a just world for me.
01:23:45From this day forward,
01:23:47the Othurian Empire has only one faith,
01:23:49and that is my Leora!
01:23:52Insulting her is treason.
01:23:54Defy her means your soul will be obliterated.
01:24:05Reion, thank heavens for letting me meet you.
01:24:08Thank you for everything you've given me.
01:24:10No, meeting you was my absolute honor, my Queen.
01:24:13Tell me more.
01:24:16Father...
01:24:21Look...
01:24:22...
01:24:22...
