Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I lay on the stone bed of the sacred infirmary, trembling violently.
00:00:05Every doctor in the Wind Kingdom was on edge for my sake, yet my husband, Lord Ronan,
00:00:13was nowhere to be seen. I was used to his coldness. But at this moment,
00:00:20having gambled my life and burned my manna to bear this child, the ridiculous shred of hope
00:00:27still flickered in my heart years ago. When I was in a desperate situation, the young Ronan saved my life.
00:00:36That kindness became my lifelong obsession. But he had no idea that I was the sole pure-blooded
00:00:45daughter of the High Elfin King. When I met with disaster in my youth, I was rescued by him,
00:00:54the lord of a mere mid-tier Elfin Kingdom. To repay that debt, I concealed my supreme identity,
00:01:02even using a forbidden ritual to seal away the radiant wings of nature
00:01:08on my back that symbolized supreme divine authority. I willingly became an ordinary female elf,
00:01:15with no background, marrying into his territory. Under a false name for years, I remained gentle and
00:01:24submissive, using my own pure-blooded mana to nourish his family, all for a sliver of his affection.
00:01:35Yet, I could never warm a heart of stone. In Ronan's heart, there was only ever room for his
00:01:42first 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. Yet, 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. Please deliver the child on your
00:02:10own, and do not delay the lord's business. At 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. After an entire day and night
00:02:23of
00:02:23deathly struggle, a soft, fragile wile finally shattered the silence of the infirmary. This was
00:02:30my daughter, a precious treasure, bought at the cost of all my mana. I named her Iris.
00:02:39At that exact moment, my personal guard rushed in to report.
00:02:43My lady, the lord has finished his external affairs, and has returned to the main manor in
00:02:49his unicorn sacred carriage. Within my deadland heart, a tiny spark suddenly ignited. I instinctively
00:02:55assumed that no matter how cold or selfish he might be, at least he would at least want to look
00:02:59at his
00:02:59newborn flesh and blood. Forcing my exhausted, severely depleted body up, I carefully held my
00:03:04daughter in her swaddling clothes, making my way toward the promenade of the main temple to see my
00:03:08husband. But just as I reached the promenade and looked through the lush courtyard of the sacred
00:03:13elven tree, I froze instantly, the blood in my veins turning to ice. My husband stood there,
00:03:21tall and elegant in his black robes, and right beside him stood a woman, the first love he had
00:03:26yearned for and never forgotten. It was Vanessa. What struck me like a bolt from the blue was that in
00:03:31front of them stood a little elfin boy, roughly three years old, with long pointed ears and a pair of
00:03:36eyes that flashed with a cunning disguised as inonence. Countless absurd possibilities flashed
00:03:42through my mind. My hands shook uncontrollably from shock and rage, but I forced myself to stand
00:03:47my ground, enduring the tearing pain of the postpartum mana reverse flow. Vanessa looked up and spotted me,
00:03:54her mouth curving into a flitting, provocative smirk. She intentionally leaned closer, into Ronin's
00:03:59embrace, her voice soft yet dripping with malice.
00:04:02Ronin, so she's the one who stole my man and my title while I was away?
00:04:07Tenderness instantly flooded Ronin's eyes as he wrapped his arm around her. He comforted her softly,
00:04:14even placing a lingering kiss upon her forehead, right in front of me. When he turned to me,
00:04:21his tone was piercingly cold and dismissive.
00:04:24Think nothing of it, Vanessa. You are my true love.
00:04:30I have never loved her. She is nothing more than a tool to manage the tribe.
00:04:36Ronin, look closely. This is the daughter I just risked my life to give you. Look at her,
00:04:42she was just born. Look how beautiful she is!
00:04:44Ronin cast a brief, indifferent glance downward. In his eyes, there was not a shred of paternal
00:04:49emotion, only naked disgust and annoyance. He swiftly averted his gaze, as though looking at his
00:04:54own flesh and blood for even a second longer would defile his relationship with Vanessa.
00:04:58Vanessa's gaze locked onto the infant in my arms, a flash of venom crossing her eyes. Promptly,
00:05:05she lifted her pitiful face, gazing up at Ronin with a trembling sob.
00:05:10Ronin, she has already born a child for the tribe. Then what about our Jasper? He followed me,
00:05:16wandering among foreign kingdoms, and suffered for three long years. He is your eldest son,
00:05:22the future heir of the Wind Kingdom. Looking at that three-year-old
00:05:25elf and child clinging to their side, I felt as if my soul had been struck by lightning. It turned
00:05:31out
00:05:31that my suspicion was actually the truth. What exactly is going on here? Ronin looked down at me,
00:05:38entirely devoid of guilt, and let out a righteous, cold snot.
00:05:43Good, you saw it. Saves me the trouble of explaining. When Vanessa left three years ago,
00:05:47she was already pregnant with my child. For these three years, she raised Jasper alone among foreign
00:05:50kingdoms, enduring endless grievance. Now that she has returned, I must make it them properly,
00:05:55restoring everything that belongs to them a thousand times over.
00:05:59I stared at the picture-perfect family of three before me, as a boundless despair swallowed me like
00:06:06a tidal wave. Just as I was on the verge of collapsing, Ronin's mother, Elodie, walked over
00:06:12hoarsely, flanked by attendants. Three-year-old Jasper was incredibly sweet-talked, twitching his delicate
00:06:18little elven ears. He immediately ran over on his short legs and tightly hugged Elodie's leg.
00:06:25Grandma! I finally get to see you! Mother said you are the most benevolent
00:06:32and noble elder in the entire kingdom! Elodie, who was extremely superstitious about bloodlines and male
00:06:40esters, melted instantly. She gathered Jasper into her arms, treating him like her ultimate treasure,
00:06:48seizing the moment. Venetha leaned into Ronin'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
00:07:03starving in exile. Elodie's heart ached for them. She snapped her head around to look at me with my
00:07:09deathly pale face and my weakly wailing daughter, her eyes instantly turning into daggers of piercing
00:07:17disgust. You nearly died just to produce a magicless, useless girl? What a pathetic waste!
00:07:28Pack up that defective brat and drag yourselves to the Withan Tower at the border right now!
00:07:33I won't let you bring your bad luck near my precious grandson!
00:07:40Ronin, Iris is your flesh and blood too. How can you just let them trample all over us?
00:07:48But Ronin's face remained completely indifferent, his tone dripping with disdain.
00:07:54Mother is right. Jasper 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. Since 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, and Ronin walked in.
00:09:17Silhouetted against the light.
00:09:20In that single instant, a ridiculous shred of hope,
00:09:24actually flared up once more, in my deadland heart.
00:09:28He was the child's father.
00:09:30Had he finally softened, coming to bring some mana, to ward off the cold?
00:09:36Or to take my daughter and me back?
00:09:38Forcing my mana depleased body up, my pale looks trembled.
00:09:43Did you come to see Iris?
00:09:45She 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,
00:09:57Ronin took a disgusted step backward.
00:09:59Serafana.
00:10:00As if the child and I were some kind of...
00:10:02I only came here to warn you.
00:10:06Stay in your withered tower quietly.
00:10:08Sign this declaration, relinquishing your rights as the primary mistress.
00:10:11And 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, not to cast a single glance at your own daughter,
00:10:31but merely to force me to give up my position.
00:10:34And to warn me?
00:10:36Ronin let out a cold laugh, his eyes filled with arrogance, and a fierce protectiveness for Vanessa.
00:10:43Vanessa 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.
00:11:23Ronin, however, did not bother to spare even a glance from the corner of his eye.
00:11:27He turned, and departed resolutely.
00:11:30The heavy iron door slamming shut, with a resounding thud.
00:11:33Holding my child, I collapsed into the freezing mud, laughing at my own stupidity.
00:11:39He came only to warn me.
00:11:41The night sky hung low, as the freezing wind raged,
00:11:45through the dead silence of the withered tower,
00:11:47preventing even a single slimmer of moonlight from penetrating the darkness.
00:11:52I 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,
00:12:04who was running a continuous low fever inside her swaddling clothes.
00:12:07Yet at this very moment, inside the Wind Kingdom's main temple,
00:12:12there 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 beast skins,
00:12:22basking in the attention and adoration of all the high-ranking elves in the kingdom.
00:12:28Three-year-old Jasper fluttered the tiny green elban wings that had just begun to develop on his back.
00:12:33Holding an exquisite elban sacred berry in his hands, his face completely smeared with juice,
00:12:38Elada sat high upon her throne, grinning from ear to ear, her eyes overflowing with a dotting pride.
00:12:45Watching this warm and harmonious scene, the more Elada 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,
00:12:55she impatiently turned to prompt my husband, Ronan, who was standing beside her.
00:12:58Ronan, 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.
00:13:14How 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,
00:13:23into the bedchambers that rightfully belong to 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,
00:13:33and then at the child, who was sweetly calling him father. The scales in his heart had already tipped
00:13:38completely. Without a shred of hesitation, he nodded his agreement coldly on the spot.
00:13:44Mother is right. The best location in the main manor should naturally be reserved for the heir who
00:13:49truly carries the excellent bloodline of our kingdom.
00:13:53Seeing her son agree so readily, Eloi's face flushed with even more delight,
00:13:57standing up hauntily while leaning on her staff, she addressed all the tribal high officials present,
00:14:02in a grand, supreme tone.
00:14:04Not only that! Wind Kingdom has thrived to this day, and our bloodline is supreme!
00:14:09Jasper is exceptionally bright, displaying astonishing magical talent at such a tender age.
00:14:14He deserves the recognition of all kingdoms!
00:14:16I propose that in three days, we hold the most grand and magnificent official announcement celebration
00:14:21for three-year-old Jasper. We shall high-profilely declare him as the primary heir of our Wind Kingdom's
00:14:28future!
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
00:14:37Wind Kingdom. Dressed in extravagant silks, she glided through the temple flanked by her entourage,
00:14:42soaking in the endless, shallow flattery. Yet a stubborn sliver of anxiety remained buried deep in
00:14:47her chest. Whenever night fell, she would catch Ronan standing on the balcony, staring with a
00:14:52conflicted expression towards that dark, desolate, withered tower. Though he spoke with absolute
00:14:56coldness, subconsciously, he still harbored a faint trace of worry for my baby and me,
00:15:01a worry he refused to admit even to himself. This lingering gaze made Vanessa's jealousness and
00:15:06paranoia grow wild. As long as my daughter and I were breathing, her position and Jasper's future
00:15:12would never be safe. An opportunity presented itself sooner than expected. Early this morning,
00:15:17desperate to give my frail daughter a single drop of clean water, my completely helpless self was
00:15:22forced to drag my broken body out of the tower, heading deep into the woods to harvest pure spring
00:15:26water filtered by ancient divine marks. Learning of this, Vanessa's eyes turned ice-cold. She knew
00:15:32her moment had arrived. She quietly dismissed the guards around the main manor, taking only a few of
00:15:37her most ruthless disconfidence, as she slipped into the dark, abandoned withered tower. The wooden door
00:15:43creaked open, letting in the piercing chill. Vanessa stepped over the debris, advancing slow pace
00:15:50by slow pace, until she stopped right in front of the primitive stone bed. Inside her swaddling clothes,
00:15:56newborn Iris was sleeping soundly. Though her little face was pale, the faint golden divine mark shimmering
00:16:02on her forehead radiated an undeniable nobility and purity. A mark that made Vanessa's eyes burn with
00:16:07pure envy. You pathetic little freak. You think you're worthy of Ronan's blood? If you want to blame
00:16:15anyone, blame your useless mother. The mask of innocence slipped from Vanessa's face, her eyes
00:16:22twisting with pure malice. From her wide sleeve, she slowly pulled out a porcelain vial that emitted an
00:16:29eerie green glow. Inside was a forbidden, lethal toxin she had purchased at an exorgent price from the
00:16:35black market. Soul-eating elixir, specifically designed to dissolve a newborn elf's mana core,
00:16:41and cause their soul to rot away inch by inch. With a trembling hand, she popped the cork and violently
00:16:47clamped her fingers over my baby's fragile jaw. The sharp pain forced my sleeping princess to snap her eyes
00:16:55open, letting out a weak, agonizing cry. But Vanessa was entirely unfazed. With a distorted,
00:17:02demonic sneer, she forced the entire bottle of icy, corrosive poison straight down my infant's tender throat.
00:17:09When I returned to the withered tower, thoroughly exhausted, and clutching that tiny container of
00:17:15pure spring water tightly to my chest, what greeted me was not the gentle sound of my daughter's breathing,
00:17:20but a deathly silence. My 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.
00:17:38Iris...
00:17:39Mommy is back.
00:17:41The moment my trembling hands pulled back the swaddling clothes, the sight before me caused me to drop
00:17:48into an abyss of ice. Her originally pink little face was now completely white,
00:17:57even faintly tinged with an eerie sickly green deathly energy. What truly shattered my soul was that the
00:18:05faint golden elven divine mark on her forehead, which had been flickering softly, was now darkened
00:18:12across a massive area. Iris! Wake up! Look at Mommy! Don't scare Mommy!
00:18:23Sprinting once more toward the Wind Kingdom's infirmary,
00:18:30I slammed the infirmary doors open with immense force. The sitting doctor took one look at the
00:18:37infant in my arms, who 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.
00:18:59The child's natural core is withering away, inch by inch. She is in critical danger and will not
00:19:05survive past half a month. The doctor's words were like a massive hammer, smashing my heart,
00:19:11to the point where I wished I could die on the spot. To suppress this aggressive toxin,
00:19:19we must immediately inject a powerful, compatible mana from her father's kingdom to protect her heart
00:19:26path. Otherwise... Trembling, I closed my eyes, disregarding any cost. I forcibly reversed the
00:19:34remaining essence within my body, frantically activating the soul transmission unique to the
00:19:39elven race. A connection never lightly opened unless it was a matter of life or death.
00:19:45Rowan, save our daughter! Save our daughter! From the other end, there was only a deathly silence,
00:19:51followed by a completely heartless rejection. Rowan had actually severed my soul transmission,
00:19:57treating 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.
00:20:20Even though maintaining it for every additional second brought a tearing, agonizing pain to my dried
00:20:25up sea of consciousness, I refused to let go. At this moment inside the Wind Kingdom's main manor,
00:20:32Ronan was patiently keeping Vanessa and her son company. Three-year-old Jasper, dressed in a luxurious
00:20:38outfit embroidered with green leaves and gold thread, was pulling back a delicate short wooden mana bow.
00:20:48When he hit the bullseye, it drew bursts of gasps and praise from the surrounding attendants, perhaps
00:20:54perturbed and annoyed by my weeping, blood-soaked pleas that continuously echoed in his mind like an act
00:21:02of self-mutilation. After coldly cutting it off over a dozen times, Ronan finally accepted the connection.
00:21:09His phantom projection materialized in mid-air, looking down at my battered and wretched form from
00:21:14a great height, his eyes filled with absolute impatience and disgust.
00:21:19Serafana, haven't you thrown enough of a tantrum? Is the soul transmission something you use
00:21:27as a prop to throw jealous fits?
00:21:30Ronan, no! Iris has been poisoned, her mana core is about to shatter, and the doctor said we must have
00:21:37the compatible mana from your body immediately to protect her heart path. I beg you, come and see her.
00:21:45Poisoned? The moment Vanessa and Jasper move into the main house, you begin fabricating such an
00:21:53absurd lie. Are you trying to curse my heir? I am not lying! She is really about to die.
00:22:06Enough! I know you are resentful, because you gave birth to a daughter, and your position as the
00:22:14Lord's Concord is insecure. But I am warning you, do not use a child as an excuse
00:22:24to disturb me. Jasper has to try on his robes for the dawn celebration in a moment. I have no
00:22:31time
00:22:34to play mad with you! Dropping these piercingly cold words, Ronan did not wait for me to utter another
00:22:44syllable before callously cutting off the soul transmission with a wave of his hand.
00:22:51The phantom projection in mid-air dissolved instantly, and along with it, the very last
00:22:57shred of my hope was crushed to pieces. After the soul transmission was severed,
00:23:05Ronan stared at his empty palm, his brow frowned tightly together. Even though he utterly detested
00:23:10Serafina's jealous fits, he hearing a word like dying still caused a faint inexplicable wave of
00:23:15irritation and uneasiness to ripple through the depths of his heart. Vanessa, who was watching
00:23:19from the side, keenly captured the shift in Ronan's expression. A flash of panic crossed her eyes,
00:23:26but it was quickly replaced by a profound, calculating look. Vanessa stepped forward gently,
00:23:32considerably smoothing out the wrinkles on Ronan's groves as she spoke in a strained,
00:23:36high-pitched voice. Ronan, the primary mistress wept so heartbreakingly during the soul transmission,
00:23:42it has left my heart in a bit of a flutter as well. How about we go to the infirmary
00:23:46to take a
00:23:46look right now? After all, the little princess is also your flesh and blood. We absolutely mustn't
00:23:52let anything terrible happen. Seeing Vanessa being so magnanimous and understanding, the irritation in
00:23:57Ronan's heart dissipated quite a bit, and he nodded immediately. Very well. We will do as you say.
00:24:05I want to see what kind of trick she can fabric. Then I will go prepare some mana spring water
00:24:11to soothe the child's mind. Wait for me a moment. Vanessa turned around, and the moment she was at
00:24:17an angle where Ronan could not see her, the tenderness on her face stently transformed into a twisted,
00:24:22venomous malice. She did not go to prepare any spring water. Instead, she dispatched Trust Vicent
00:24:27carrying heavy gold mana crystals to secretly bribe the doctor who had received Iris. When Vanessa
00:24:33accompanied Ronan and arrived at the infirmary in a hurried rush, she took advantage of a gap while
00:24:38Ronan was speaking with the nurses outside, using the excuse of checking in, first to stealthily slip
00:24:43into the patient room ahead of him, entirely unnoticed. Staring at the infant on the hospital bed who was
00:24:48hanging onto life by a mere thread. The divine mark on her forehead flickering erratly. She ruthless
00:24:54gleam flashed through Vanessa's eyes. She pulled an advanced, consecutive illusion potion from her
00:25:02sleeve. A 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
00:25:15hesitation. The instant the illusion potion entered her mouth, the sickly green deathly energy on the
00:25:21little princess's face began to recede rapidly and the divine mark that was on the verge of cracking,
00:25:27eerily smoothed over. Even her burning body temperature began to return to normal at a rapid
00:25:33pace. Aside from falling into a deep slumber, she looked exactly like a healthy infant who had merely
00:25:39caught an ordinary chill and was sleeping peacefully. The moment Ronan pushed open the door to the patient
00:25:46room. I was collapsed by the bedside, my eyes filled with absolute disbelief as I stared at my daughter.
00:25:53Just moments ago after Vanessa came in, under a false pretext, the deathly energy on Iris's face
00:26:00suddenly vanished. Even her shriveled, divine mark smoothed out. Ronan stepped forward with a freezing
00:26:08expression. He only touched her forehead. Irisa, her temperature was normal, her breathing was steady.
00:26:22Then he whipped his head around, staring dead at my deathly pale face. His voice was sharp, cutting, and poisoned.
00:26:32Seraphana! This is the life-threatening danger you spoke of? This is the shattered core you claimed?
00:26:41Her temperature is normal, her breathing is steady. As the Lord's Concord, you dared to deceive me.
00:26:49Using your newborn daughter as bait for a jealous tantrum. You disgust me. Looking at his furious face,
00:26:58my entire body turned cold. No! Ronan, listen to me! Just moments ago, she was not like this! It was
00:27:05Vanessa!
00:27:06She came in just now! She fed something to Modell! But Ronan did not believe me for even a second.
00:27:12So I turned to the doctor beside us, as if he were my last saving straw. Doctor, speak up!
00:27:21You clearly told me, had been struck by a forbidden poison! You said it was destroying her core, and she
00:27:27would not survive half a month! But the doctor, who had been pale with Tara moments ago, had already
00:27:33accepted Vanessa's massive bribe. He did not dare look at me. Then, syllable by syllable, he pushed me into
00:27:39the abyss. Reporting to the Lord, the little princess merely caught a bit of a breeze, but there may be
00:27:44no-double. It is only ordinary discomfort. The primary mistress is unsettled after childbirth,
00:27:49overly sensitive and blowing a small matter out of proportion. My entire world shattered like a bolt
00:27:53from Moments of Blue. How could it suddenly change? Watching me fall to the ground in a
00:27:57distrevelled, helpless state, Vanessa, hidden just behind Ronan, let a fleeting, venomous smile of
00:28:03triumph play on the corners of her lips. Then, stepping forward at the perfect moment, she submissively
00:28:09wrapped her arm aground Ronan's, practically melting half her body into his embrace. While casting feigned
00:28:15looks of pity at the little princess on the sickbed, she continuously blew poisonous whispers into Ronan's
00:28:20ear. Ronan, don't blame the primary mistress too much. Iris is a girl, after all, born with a weak
00:28:27constitution. It is only natural she panicked when a minor chill threw the child into such a state.
00:28:33It's just, the primary mistress is far too sensitive. Always catching at shadows and blowing minor
00:28:40inconveniences entirely out of proportion. She looked up, her eyes brimming with tenderness and
00:28:46adoration. Jasper's succession ceremony is in just two days. That is the true matter of gravity for
00:28:52the kingdom's legacy. We cannot let Serafina delay your proper business over these trivial backyard squabbles.
00:29:01Let us return to the main manor. We shouldn't let her hysteria ruin our precious time with Jasper.
00:29:11Ronan averted his eyes in disgust, refusing to grant even half a glance to his biological daughter on
00:29:17the sickbed. Vanessa, you are the one who is truly sensible. Come, let us return. And ignore this mad
00:29:25woman. If she wishes to stay here and make a spectacle of herself, let her be. Leaning triumphantly
00:29:31against Ronan, Vanessa accompanied him as he strode out of the infirmary. Only when the footsteps of
00:29:36the pair had completely faded, did the doctor, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly collapse
00:29:42in a heap. He scrambled on his hands and knees to my feet, quoting frantically while crying out in
00:29:49absolute despair. Madam Vanessa has officially moved into the Lord's main mansion with the air
00:30:04and enjoys the Lord's absolute favor. She is the future primary mistress of the kingdom.
00:30:11Before the Lord entered just now, she pulled me aside and threatened that if I did not cooperate,
00:30:15she would take my entire family's lives tonight and even have the Lord take my head. She would
00:30:19truly kill me. Listening to the doctor's desperate wails, I looked at my daughter on the sickbed,
00:30:23whose condition was forcibly masked as peaceful by the illusion of poison. Ronan, to cater to your
00:30:27first love, you personally abandoned the sole opportunity to save your biological daughter. You will
00:30:32live to regret this. Three days later, Elid spared no expense. Utilizing over half of the Wind
00:30:42Kingdom's treasury to organize an incredibly extravagant dawn trial for three-year-old Jasper. The streets of
00:30:49the main city were carpeted with sacred florencent petals and they went so far as to exceptionally tame
00:30:57nine pure white unicorns to draw a crystal-invented float in 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 and ascended the float, waves of deafening cheers erupted
00:31:22across the skies of the Wind Kingdom. Meanwhile, in a dark corner of the Grand Hall, I cradled my
00:31:27daughter, whose life force was growing fainter by the moment, watching this absurd fast with cold
00:31:33detachment. Without the Lord's explicit permission, my daughter and I lacked even the right to enter the
00:31:39main hall, forced to stand in the freezing wind of the outer gallery. Just then, Vanessa, basking in the
00:31:48adoration atop the float, spotted my figure from afar. With a flicker in her eyes, she intentionally
00:31:54walked towards me with a smug smile. Covering her mouth with a handkerchief, she let out a feigned
00:31:59sigh of self-reploach, though her eyes were filled with condescending charity. Sister, do not blame
00:32:06Mother and Ronin for being heartless. The Withered Tower is peaceful, making it the perfect place for your
00:32:11magic-deficient daughter to recuperate. Today is our Jasper's succession celebration. You shouldn't have
00:32:16brought her out in the first place. Look at her. Even her divine mark is on the verge of dispersing.
00:32:22We must not let her clash with Jasper's unicorn fortune after today. Jasper will be the rightful
00:32:28first heir, while you, the primary mistress, are fit only to watch us ascend to the peak from the mud
00:32:34for
00:32:34the rest of your life! While Vanessa subjected me to endless mockery, the parade reached its absolute
00:32:39climax. Clad in a magnificent silver white robe, a commanding and majestic Ronin ascended the central
00:32:46divine altar under the gaze of the masses. Raising his hands, he used amplification magic to declare to
00:32:53the entire field his voice echoing through the heavens, arrogant and ecstatic.
00:32:58Today is not only the celebratory feast, establishing my son Jasper's status as heir, but the starting point for
00:33:05our Wind Kingdoms to march towards the peak of all kingdoms! I officially announce here that we are
00:33:11exerting every effort to secure multiple major cooperations with the mysterious and supreme High
00:33:17Elven King of the Sanctuary! I couldn't help but laugh. The supreme High Elven King they were so
00:33:22desperately trying to fawn over? That's my father. It's time for me to turn the tables.
00:33:27The moment these words were spoken, a massive uproar rippled through the crowd. The High Elven King was
00:33:36the supreme ruler of the entire Elven world. A god-like existence. If they could obtain even a
00:33:46shred of that lord's favor, the Wind Kingdom could instantly ascend into the ranks of the Super Kingdoms.
00:33:53Ronan's face was flushed with absolute pride, his features bearing an unmaskable arrogance,
00:33:59as he turned an affectionate gaze to Vanessa and Jasper.
00:34:05Once this cooperation is finalized, Jasper will not only be the king of the Wind Kingdom,
00:34:12but the most noble young commander of the future sanctuary! I shall use the eternal prosperity of
00:34:19the supreme sanctuary to make up for the Grieges. Vanessa and her son suffered over the past three
00:34:27years! Vanessa cast a provocative glance at me, her eyes brimming with ostentations and disdain.
00:34:35Ronan's gaze toward me was also filled with ultimate coldness, as if mocking my instant
00:34:40magnificence and incompetence. However, watching Ronan's self-righteous declaration, I felt not a
00:34:46single shred of anger. Instead, I lowered my head and gently kissed the suppressed divine mark on my
00:34:52daughter's forehead. The sole direct bloodline of the High Elven King is, at this very moment, lying
00:35:01within the swaddling clothes you have dismissed as worthless garbage. Ronan, Vanessa, the supreme divinity
00:35:12you are scheming to please, by any means necessary, is the very person you have personally pushed into the
00:35:19abyss and trampled upon in every way. Me, the corners of my lips furved into an icy arc, and the
00:35:27suppressed
00:35:27rage and hatred in my heart transformed into the most ruthless anticipation at this moment. Wind Kingdom,
00:35:34the final revelry of your lives ends here.
00:35:42After a few days of revelry, the disguise of the illusion potion finally collapsed, like a castle of sand.
00:35:51Lying on the stone bed of the withered tower, the toxins within my daughter's body broke past all
00:35:56restraint, erupting violently. She fell into a prolonged coma, her tiny body burning with a terrifying fever,
00:36:03her lips cracked and pale, her breathing reduced to a flickering candle in the wind,
00:36:10liable to extinguish at any moment. I knelt by the bedside, my magic entirely dried up,
00:36:18leaving me helpless as I pressed my cheek against her icy little hand. My tears long since dried.
00:36:26Just as I was on the verge of despairing unto death, the wooden door of the high tower was suddenly
00:36:32pushed open in a frenzy. The Wind Kingdom doctor burst in, dripping with sweat, his eyes a tangled mess
00:36:39of guilt and terror. With trembling hands, he presented a crystal bottle, radiating a warm, sacred golden light,
00:36:47like the midday sun. This medicine can neutralize all poisons, save those on the brink of death,
00:36:53and immensely nourish the bloodline of an elven babe. Please, feed it to the little princess quickly!
00:36:59This is her sole path to survival! Staring at that ball of sacred golden light, my deadened heart began
00:37:04to beat frantically. I snatched the spiritual medicine, clutching it tightly to my chest,
00:37:08my heart overflowing with joy as I believed my my daughter was finally saved. Trembling,
00:37:14I pulled the cork, preparing to feed this life-saving drop into my daughter's mouth. When the tower door
00:37:21was violently blown open with a resounding clash, a wild wind rushed in as Alina, flanked by her
00:37:28attendants, strode in with a majestic yet greedy expression. Before I could even react, she ruthlessly
00:37:34snatched the crystal bottle right out of my hands! Illion gripped the flask of sacred tree extract tightly.
00:37:43Feeling the boundless sacred energy swirling within, a fanatical greed erupted in her eyes.
00:37:49Give it back to me! That is Iris' life-saving medicine! I lunged forward like a madman to reclaim the
00:37:55medicine.
00:37:56Give it back! Only to be ruthlessly pinned to the ground by two high-tier guards using their magical staffs.
00:38:03My knees slammed against the hard stone tiles, emitting a sickening crack. Following closely behind,
00:38:11Ronan looked down at me with cold detachment, devoid of any pity.
00:38:16Aleda trembled with excitement, refusing to grant even a single glance to the dying daughter on the
00:38:22sickbed, her mind and heart entirely occupied by her precious eldest grandson.
00:38:26Roran! Look at this! This is the legendary sacred tree extract!
00:38:30Though three-year-old Jasper is extraordinarily gifted, his skeletal frame hasn't fully matured yet.
00:38:36If we let him drink this divine item, his wind magic will undergo a complete metamorphosis,
00:38:41allowing him to grow taller and more powerful than any peer, entirely solidifying his position as the
00:38:47first heir under the kingdom spotlight! Mother is correct. Leaving such a bloodline treasure in the
00:38:54withered tower would be an utter waste of a divine gift. Only Jasper is worthy of enjoying it.
00:39:01Vanessa walked in at that moment carrying three-year-old Jasper, looking at me pinned to the
00:39:05ground by the guards, coughing up blood in a disheveled state. The triumph and amusement in
00:39:10her eyes threatened to spill over. The three of them huddled together, admiring the item as if
00:39:14inspecting a supreme treasure filled with praises, while I could only watch helplessly as the saving
00:39:19straw belonged to my daughter, was stripped away completely. Amid my agonized weeping,
00:39:26that priceless flask of sacred tree extract was gently yet forcefully poured into the mouth of
00:39:33the perfectly livable Jasper by Eladid. The moment the divine item entered his mouth, a blinding golden
00:39:39current erupted across Jasper's body. Not only did his wind attribute magic surge instantly, but his height
00:39:45even seemed to increase slightly. The three-year-old toddler excitedly brashed at his magic in the hall,
00:39:52while Ronan and Vanessa surrounded him, letting out waves of absolute delight. The happier their laughter,
00:39:59the more shattered my heart became. Ronan looked down upon me as I lay limp on the ground,
00:40:04his cold words cutting like blades.
00:40:06Seraphina, cease your weeping here. Jasper is the future hope of the kingdom.
00:40:13Giving this medicine to him ensures it is put to its proper use. As for Iris,
00:40:18it has been said she merely has a common chill.
00:40:22It is not worth delaying proper business over her, and she certainly does not deserve a divine
00:40:27object like the sacred tree extract. Flicking his sleeves, Ronan turned and left heartlessly,
00:40:33taking the room's laughter with him. When they departed entirely, the tower plunged back into a
00:40:39deathly silence. I crawled to the bedside, looking at my empty hands, and then at my daughter,
00:40:46whose core was withering, as she spit out another mouthful of black blood from the poison gripping
00:40:51her heart. My daughter opened her eyes weakly, rubbing against my palm with a touch of attachment,
00:40:56before sinking entirely into a deathly coldness. Slowly raising my right hand, I spared no cost
00:41:03to force out the final drop of supreme golden blood from my heart, drawing a sacred golden-winged
00:41:09armor in the void. Through the array, a connection was instantly forged to the deepest depths of the
00:41:16sanctuary, unleashing a supreme pressure that made all kingdoms tremble.
00:41:20My daughter, you are finally willing to contact your father. You have suffered these past three
00:41:25years. Cradling the icy form tightly in my arms, tears of blood tracing down my face. My voice was
00:41:30completely calm, devoid of a single ripple has been from emotion. My daughter is dying. Please open the
00:41:35gates of the sanctuary and take us mother and daughter home. The supreme array faded into the air,
00:41:40and forcing my dying, battered body forward, I carried my daughter out of the withered tower.
00:41:46My daughter's fragile form barely clung to life. Without disturbing anyone, I walked step-by-step to
00:41:53the center of the territory, stopping before the tree of life. Then I was rome beroed of to stand into
00:41:59the Yubur Mayan number stool. Swearing by the supreme bloodline, I sever the covenant and erase my holy name
00:42:08here today.
00:42:12Inside the main manor, Ronan felt a sudden violent spasm of pain strike his chest.
00:42:21Ronian, three years of marital devotion has been personally severed by your hand today.
00:42:26The trampling you granted me, I have accepted. From this day forward, we shall not meet again in life
00:42:30nor death. Serafina, what madness are you throwing now over such a trivial matter you would go so
00:42:35far as to harm your own body to forge a fortune backlash? I have no time to play these cat
00:42:40and
00:42:40mouse games with you. If you have the ability to leave, then ensure you never return!
00:42:46Death has simply been spoiled by you. In a couple of days, once she has suffered enough outside,
00:42:51she will naturally come back begging on her knees. Let us ignore her.
00:42:57That night, the entire main manor of the Wind Kingdom was brightly lit and adorned with festive
00:43:06decorations. To celebrate three-year-old Jasper consuming the sacred tree extract and experiencing
00:43:13a surge in magic, Aline ordered an all-night festival of music and dance. Inside the magnificent
00:43:20main hall, the aroma of fine wine filled the air, as countless high-tier elves raised their glasses
00:43:25in unison, surrounding Vanessa and her son at the center, with absolute flattery and obdaciousness.
00:43:31Ronan sat upon his throne, looking at his triumphant eldest son, his eyes filled with pride
00:43:38and certainty that the kingdom was about to ascend to the peak of all kingdoms. The hypocritical and
00:43:45fanatical cheers echoed through the night sky, transforming the entire temple into a city that
00:43:52never slept. Yet no one noticed that on the desolate path, at the outmost edge of the main city, leading
00:43:58towards the Forbidden Forest, a slender and resolute figure was carrying a sweatling cloth, stepping into
00:44:04the boundless curtain of night. The freezing rain slammed down merseusely. Serafina's face was deathly still,
00:44:09but her hands held the daughter in her arms with absolute tightness. Iris's breathing within the
00:44:14cloth was faint, her tiny body gradually turning stirby and cold. Serafina did not cast a single
00:44:19glance back at the false prosperity of the Wind Kingdom behind her. Her eyes held no more tears,
00:44:24only an indifference that chilled to the bone. The singing and dancing inside the main hall continued,
00:44:29and Ronan was smiling as he accepted the fine wine handed to him by Vanessa. At that exact instant,
00:44:34deep within the dark forest far away, the violent cold wind came to an abrupt halt without warning,
00:44:38a sliver of incredibly noble, sacred and tore through the darkness of the polar night. The
00:44:42frame foes at the edge of the dark, silent forest. The sounds of the Wind Kingdom's celebratory songs
00:44:47and laugh still echoed faintly, but the moment the mother and girl's slender yet matchlessly noble
00:44:52fears that sliver of golden light, they instantly transformed into a remnant gleam, vanishing completely
00:44:57into the endless night. The sacred light erupted outward at the center of the royal hall in the
00:45:03supreme sanctuary. Holding my daughter, who had practically stopped breathing, I finally collapsed
00:45:09onto my knees against the flawless white jade floor tiles, my strength entirely spent. My long hair
00:45:15was soaked through by the torritious rain sticking messily to my deathly pale cheeks. The weakness of
00:45:18postparting recovery, comboled with the trauma of forcibly reversing my source power, caused me to leave
00:45:23a striking trail of blood with every step. Sitting high upon his throne, my father rose abruptly, when he
00:45:28clearly saw my broken state at the bottom of the steps. His majestic noble face, which had 10,000
00:45:32years of history, trembled violently with immense shock and heartache. Moving like a blur, he materialized
00:45:38by my side in an instant, his hands shaking as he tried to lift me up. My daughter! How did
00:45:45you become
00:45:45like this? Your supreme magic, which even 10,000 kingdoms look up to, why has it withered to such an
00:45:54extent?
00:45:56I slowly raised my head. The tears of blood at the corners of my eye long since dried. I did
00:46:01not cry
00:46:01out. I merely used the final shred of strength in my body to tremblingly present the swaddling cloth to
00:46:06my father. Father, save her. She is Ronin's biological flesh and blood, yet they dismissed her as a lowerly
00:46:12wretch. To steal her life-saving medicine, they fed my iris forbidden illusion potions to forcibly mask the
00:46:18truth. She has been poisoned with soul-eating grass, and her magic core is on the verge of shattering.
00:46:23My father took the tiny swatting cloth with trembling hands. When his divine sense swept
00:46:28across his granddaughter's battered natural core, which was being ravenously consumed by the poison,
00:46:33this supreme Gyatty who ruled over the entire sanctuary felt his eyes turn instantly bloodluck.
00:46:39Immediately following, a terrifying, world-destroying pressure erupted violently from his body.
00:46:47In an instant, the skies above the entire supreme sanctuary shifted dramatically as the once bright
00:46:53heavens were enveloped by rolling black clouds and violent thunderbolts. The ancient vines surrounding
00:46:57the royal hall, which had flourished for tens of thousands of years, seemed to feel the king's
00:47:01ultimate fury, trembling wildly and thrashing against the ground as the entire sacred mountain
00:47:06shook violently under the divine rage. My father raised his right hand high, the destructive divine
00:47:11lightning flashing frankly at his fingertips. He stared dead at his dying granddaughter within the
00:47:16cloth, his gnashing words wrapped in supreme divine authority as they echoed through heaven and earth.
00:47:21The wind kingdom? Runon! You ants dare to torture my only daughter in such a manner,
00:47:26and strike ruthlessly against my newborn granddaughter. Pass down my dissension pathways, the wind kingdom!
00:47:32Whosoever dares harm my glorish, I shall demand their entire kingdom accompany her in death!
00:47:38To rescue Iris from the brink of death, my father did not hesitate for a moment, immediately ordering the
00:47:44opening of the life core of the ancient sacred tree that had lived for 100,000 years within the
00:47:49forbidden grounds. This was the energy source of the entire elfin world, a place where even the high
00:47:55priests of the sanctuary had no right to approach normally. Yet it was fully open today for my daughter.
00:48:02Every top holy tier healer within the sanctuary was assembled overnight.
00:48:12The golden life core floated gently above the sickbed, radiating a soft, vast and ocean-like purity of
00:48:17magic. A canopy of brilliant golden light wrapped around Iris' tiny body layer by layer, like a coon,
00:48:22nourished by this immense life force. The faint golden divine mark on Iris' forehead, which had been nearly
00:48:28cracked and extinguished, finally flickered with a weak resonance under the caress of the divine light.
00:48:34I kept watch by the bedside, my face pale, never leaving her side for a single pace.
00:48:40I watched with my own eyes as those holy gris healers transformed secret medicines into golden needles,
00:48:46extracting the stubborn soul-eating grease poison from my daughter's body, inch by inch.
00:48:51Every time that the poison was forced out, my daughter would let our faint kitten-like whipper of pain,
00:48:56and those drops of black toxic blood would instantly corrode scorched hole into the pure white sheets upon
00:49:02hitting them. My daughter, watching her suffer, tore at my heart as if it were being cut by 10,000
00:49:08blades.
00:49:09Ronan, Vanessa, the pain you inflicted upon my child, I will ensure you repay it a thousand times.
00:49:14It was a grueling two days and nights of hovering between life and dithe.
00:49:21As the first ray of the sanctuary's warm morning sun pierced through the window frame on the third day,
00:49:27Iris suddenly let out a resounding cry from the bed. That cry was no longer weak and filled with despair
00:49:33like before, but brimming with the strength of a new life. The golden divine mark on her forehead
00:49:39restored completely, and her once pale little face began to flush with color, her skin radiating a
00:49:44healthy glow. Congratulations, king. Congratulations, holy princess. The virilest poison within the little
00:49:50princess's body has completely dissolved. Not only is her life secured, but her bloodline has completely
00:49:54awa- Looking at my daughter's face as she clenched her tiny fists and blue bubbles,
00:49:58the tears I had suppressed for three long years finally broke through the floodgates.
00:50:03The morning sun spilled across the luxurious couch where Vanessa was gently helping Ronan into his
00:50:08robes. However, Ronan's brow was furrowed tightly. His handsome face clouded with undeniable irritation
00:50:13and gloom. Right then, a panic-starting bell rang out from outside the main temple. Several elders
00:50:18scrambled into the hall, their faces as white as sheets. Lord, disaster has struck! The soldiers guarding the
00:50:23ascension platform just reported that our kingdom's passage to the sanctuary has been violently locked
00:50:28from above by an unspeakable supreme divine authority. The gates of the divine realm are closed to us.
00:50:36What did you say? The passage is locked? Who could possibly have such power? In that instant,
00:50:46the image of Seraphina's cold, ruthless phantom before her departure flashed through his mind,
00:50:51and his heart sank. Could it be... Seraphina? But the moment the thought arose, it was instantly
00:50:57crushed by the deep-rooted arrogance in his heart. He let out a cold, self-decricketing laugh. Seraphina
00:51:03was nothing more than a lowly woman with no background, inferior even to a low-tier elf of the
00:51:08Wintuary that happened to affect their kingdom. Seeing his distress, Vanessa quickly moved closer,
00:51:15wrapping her arms around his to comfort him, teasingly. Exactly, Lord. Sister ran away in a
00:51:22tantrum, and is probably hiding in some inn using that sickly brat to threaten you until you soften.
00:51:28How could she possibly have the power to lock the ascension platform?
00:51:34Ronan pressed his throbbing temples. A strange sensation of losing his kingdom's fortune made him
00:51:39increasingly restless. Pushing Vanessa away, he strode toward the Covenant Temple with a dark expression.
00:51:47However, the moment Ronan stepped into the Covenant Temple, the priest on duty collapsed to the floor
00:51:52in sheer terror, his face deathly pale. What are you panicking for? Bring out the
00:51:56Covenant Jade plaques for Seraphina and the infant. I want to see where they are hiding and laughing at me!
00:52:01My Lord, spare my life! They cannot be brought out! Just three days ago, the primary mistress
00:52:08covenant mark under the Tree of Life was forcibly erased! What did you say? Forcibly erased?
00:52:16Not only is it gone, but the mother and daughter used an ancient secret ritual to completely delete
00:52:21all their holy names from the Elfin race. Half of the Tree of Life has withered. I used every tracking
00:52:26method available, but they are all untraceable! They have completely severed their bloodline and
00:52:32connection with the Wind Kingdom. Well played, Seraphina! To resort to such a self-harming,
00:52:37despicable trick as deleting your holy name! Do you think you can escape just by doing that? I want
00:52:43to see how many days you can last out there with your dying daughter without the protection of the Wind
00:52:49Kingdom! Watching her daughter sleep peacefully in the divine light of the Sacred Tree,
00:52:55Seraphina slowly stood up. The mole the tender she turned to vanished from her eyes,
00:53:00replaced by a bottomless coldness and resolve. Father, I was too foolish in the past to repay a
00:53:06trivial mortal deed. I degraded myself to cater to a blind, cold-blooded mortal. In return,
00:53:12they trampled all over me and nearly caused my daughter's death! She raised her hand, slicing through
00:53:17the air like a blade. As an invisible emotional barrier shattered, the painful memories of her humiliation,
00:53:24Ronin's neglect, and Vanessa's framing in the Wind Kingdom were sealed deep within her heart.
00:53:29From this day forward, the lowly, submissive consort of the Wind Kingdom no longer exists,
00:53:35to ensure we are never trampled on again, and to control my daughter's destiny.
00:53:38I willingly accept the royal bloodline baptism. Looking at his daughter, whose gaze had become
00:53:43as sharp as a hawk, the high-elval king felt a surge of relief and pride. He immediately gave his
00:53:48stern approval. Half an hour later, the gates to the sanctuary's core Forbidden Grounds swung open.
00:53:52This was the sacred training pool exclusive to the heirs of the Supreme Royal Family, filled with
00:53:56primeval Priadan magic accumulated over 10,000 years, and to an ordinary high elf would explode and
00:54:01die from touching even a single drop, and to enduring the agonizing pain of a complete bone-shattering
00:54:05transcendent.
00:54:06Without any hesitation, under the Avarstek gaze of 10,000 pure-blooded elven guards,
00:54:11Serafina stepped relutely into the terrifying, surging sacred pool, clad in a simple white robe.
00:54:16Boom! The moment her body was completely submerged, the ancient magic erupted, unleashing towering golden
00:54:21waves. The violent propezzanard energy slashed through her merpicrians and bones like countless
00:54:25blades. Yet, she did not even flinch. The nine sore seals she had petitioned herself to repay her debt to
00:54:30Ronin began to shatter and unravel, completely awakening her to dormant power under the furious
00:54:34onslaught.
00:54:35Smash! Ronin shattered his communication array for the 12th time. Every time he tried to connect with
00:54:41Serafina through a soul transmission, he was met with nothing but a cold empty echo, and the piercing
00:54:46pain of magical backlash. His frustration reached its peep as a suffocating panic of losing control gripped
00:54:53his throat. Just then, the hall doors pushed open, and Vanessa walked in smiling, holding three-year-old
00:54:59Jasper by the hand.
00:55:01Roman, look! After taking the sacred tree extract today, Jasper can already control two high-tier
00:55:07windblades! He truly is your eldest son.
00:55:13Ronin turned his irritated gaze onto Jasper, who was shouting and playing with a toy. But as he looked,
00:55:18his breath caught. Whether it was due to the sudden loss of his kingdom's fortune,
00:55:22looking at Jasper's arrogant and brash face felt unprecedentedly discordal.
00:55:27The child's features lacked even a trace of the Wind Kingdom royal family's elegance,
00:55:31showing instead a crude vulgarity. What terrified him most was that the wind-attributed magic
00:55:35radiating from Jasper was crosse and wild, sharing absolutely no bloodline resonance,
00:55:40with the pure biting royal bloodline in his own body. When Vanessa gave birth to the child outside
00:55:46years ago, crying that she had been hunted by enemies and forced to wander, Ronin pitied her
00:55:52and never questioned the bloodline. But now…
00:55:59Ronin, why are you looking at Jasper like that? Did he do something wrong?
00:56:05Rokon stared dead at the flash of panic in Vanessa's eyes. His hands clenched tightly
00:56:09beneath his robes as something shattered within his heart. Taking a deep breath to suppress his
00:56:13immense suspicion, he put on a cold disguise. It is nothing. I am simply tired. You may leave.
00:56:20The moment the doors closed, Ronin's eyes turned incredibly sinister. He looked toward
00:56:24the empty air and gave a ruthless command. Someone, bring out the royal family's most
00:56:29secretive bloodline apriation, Arapis. Remember, prepare it in secret. Find an opportunity to gather
00:56:34Jasper's hair and finger blood later. Vanessa must not know a single thing about this. If I find that
00:56:41his bloodline does not match. I will ensure them die without a burial place!
00:56:47Meanwhile, in the sanctuary, around the forbidden sacred pool grounds, 10,000 pureblood high elven
00:56:52generals, high priests, and gradually cards of the divine king knelt across the mountains.
00:56:56Everyone held their breath, looking up at the gradually calming sacred pool in awe.
00:56:59Suddenly, faint golden ripple carrying supreme authority spread from the center of the pool.
00:57:04A graceful noble figure slowly rose from the center of the water. Seraphina's postpartum weakness and
00:57:09blast were entirely gone. Her skin shone like flawless white jade, flowing with a sacred light,
00:57:14and her once withered long hair turned into a dazzling golden color, skating down to her ankles.
00:57:19Under the baptism of the ancient presided energy, her appearance and magic were completely restored,
00:57:24far surpassing her past peak. The moment her feet left the water and she hovered in mid-air,
00:57:29the space behind her tore violently. Boom! Accompanied by a divine phoenix cry that echoed through the
00:57:34heavens. A pair of dazzling supreme natural wings radiating boundless life and destruction unfurled
00:57:39behind her back. The divine wings were massive, each feather condundated from the purest golden
00:57:43light of natural law. With a slight flutter, a terrifying pressure swept past like a tsunami.
00:57:48Unable to withstand the bloodline pressure from the depths of their souls, the 10,000 pureblooded
00:57:53elves slammed their foreheads against the ground as the sacred roof and echoed in harmony.
00:57:58We welcome Her Majesty's ascension to the throne!
00:58:07Standing amid the golden light, Seraphana looked down at her subjects. She raised her hand slightly,
00:58:13feeling the terrifying magic capable of destroying heaven and earth, a cool, cold smile playing on her
00:58:17lips. The submissive, lowly consort who had once begged for a flask of pure spring water for her
00:58:21daughter in the Withern Tower had completely died in this sacred pool today. The one who lived now was the
00:58:26supreme empress, who held the power over life and death for the entire elven sanctuary.
00:58:31She turned her gaze towards the direction of the Wind Kingdom, her murderous intent radiating palpably.
00:58:39Since Seraphina's departure, Vanessa carried herself completely as the new mistress of the Wind
00:58:44Kingdom. Without the restraint of the legitimate primary mistress, she tore off her past gentle disguise.
00:58:49The first thing she did upon moving is replace all the decorations with the most luxurious gold
00:58:53silks. She lived extravagantly and wastefully, bathing in the rarest floral dew daily, and even
00:58:59forcibly withholding nearly half of the lower-tier elf's winter ravens, just to fashion a sweeping
00:59:03dress embedded with deep-sea magic krills. Furthermore, Vanessa was arrogant and harsh to the point of
00:59:08cruelty toward the servants and lower-class elves of the kingdom.
00:59:11Mistress, this is the silver-needle tea you requested. The temperature is just right.
00:59:15It's-
00:59:16Scolding, you useless wretch! Are you trying to ruin my face on purpose? Someone, strip her of her elfin badge
00:59:21and banish her entire family to hard labor at the Wither Tower!
00:59:26Panic gripped the main manor, and the lower-tier elves filled the air with grievances.
00:59:29Sitting in his study, Ronin listened to the constant shouting, face-slapping and crying from outside,
00:59:34his temples throbbing. Looking at the ledger, submitted by the Council of Elders,
00:59:38which detailed Vanessa's waste of tens of thousands of magic crystals over the past few days,
00:59:42his face turned grim. In the past, when Serafina managed the household,
00:59:45the entire Wind Kingdom was orderly. She was always gentle, understanding and proper,
00:59:49choosing to live frugally rather than misappropriate a single penny from the kingdom.
00:59:53Even using her own source Morna to nourish injured low-tier soldiers,
00:59:56Roman instinctively touched the empty space beside his throne, an unprecedented emptiness and regret
01:00:01washing over him like a tidal wave. He began to desperately miss the woman who had always quietly
01:00:06waited for him. But now, no matter how much he searched the Wind Kingdom's territory,
01:00:11he could no longer find a single trace of Serafina.
01:00:15Yet Ronin had no idea that while he was drowning in endless regret and agony,
01:00:19a dim storle lamp was burning in the most secluded subterranean chamber of the main manor.
01:00:22Dressed in her luxurious gown, Vanessa showed none of her usual arrogance,
01:00:26slumping limply into the embrace of her old lover Oswin, the chief captain of the guards.
01:00:30Oswin's rough, calloused hands gripped her slender waist tightly as their breaths mingled in a display
01:00:34of immacity and wanton behavior. That suspicious Rhett Ronin stared at Jasper for a long time today.
01:00:39Could he have discovered something?
01:00:42My darling, with me here, what are you afraid of? Even if his suspicions lead him to test the bloodline,
01:00:48he will never find a problem. Don't forget, when he sent me to draw our son's blood, I swapped it
01:00:53with my
01:00:53own. That broken appraisal Askel of his will only show an absolute blood relative!
01:00:57Oskyn pulled Vanessa closer, tilting her chin up proudly.
01:01:01If Ronin hadn't been heavily injured and unconscious during the war three years ago,
01:01:05allowing you to slip into my bed amid the chaos, how else would he have become this cheap father
01:01:11and felt guilty enough to search for you for three whole years?
01:01:15Vanessa's beautiful eyes flashed with a venomous light as she laughed and pinched the man,
01:01:19who told Ronin to pride himself on being deeply affectionate when he is actually a fool who is
01:01:24easily deceived. For three years, he trampled Seraphina, the legitimate mistress, into the
01:01:29dirt for the sake of Jasper and mine. Little does he know, the heir he personally cherishes is actually
01:01:34your child! A wild and greedy ambition as his flashed, his voice turned low and vicious.
01:01:39Ronin is completely distracted every day because of Seraph's disappearance and the kingdom's fortune
01:01:43has mostly vanished for some reason. The ascension passage is even closed. In just a few more days,
01:01:48we will deliver the fatal blow.
01:01:52The inner frustration and the mysterious loss of his kingdom's fortune drove him near madness.
01:01:57His mind troubled. He walked aimlessly through the streets of the main city,
01:02:00and inadvertently stopped in front of the infirmary. Looking at the somewhat dilapidated doors,
01:02:05the image of Seraphina weeping in absolute despair here suddenly flashed through his mind.
01:02:10I must be losing my mind to have walked all the way here. Just as he turned to leave,
01:02:14a stealthy figure carrying a bundle prepared to flee from inside the infirmary.
01:02:17It was the doctor from before. Ever since Seraphina Umister raised her holy name and left,
01:02:21causing half of the tree of life to wither, this doctor had been tormented night and day by guilt
01:02:25and fear, finally breaking down and preparing to escape overnight. Ronin's eyes turned sharp.
01:02:29Moving like lightning, he materialized before the doctor, blocking his path.
01:02:33Where do you think you are running? What are you panicking for upon seeing me?
01:02:37Looking at Ronin's rage distorted face, and thinking of the rampant rumors about the primary
01:02:41mistress disappearance and the sacred trees withering, the doctor's psychological defense
01:02:44collapsed completely. Even needing to use a soul-searching technique, he fell to his knees in
01:02:48terror, now coating frantically as tears and muses strummed down his face.
01:02:51Lord, spare my life! I deserve to die! I dare not hide it any longer!
01:02:54The primary mistress did not lie! She was not throwing a tamper fighting for effect!
01:02:58Ronin's heart skipped a beat, a profound sense of foreboding enveloping his entire body.
01:03:03Make yourself clear! What do you mean she didn't lie?
01:03:06It was your daughter! Your daughter Iris didn't catch an ordinary chill at all!
01:03:10She was poisoned with the highly insidious soul-eating grass, and her core had already
01:03:14begun to wither! Boom, the doctor's words exploded in Ronin's ears like a thunder mist,
01:03:18leaving his pail and make him sway on his feet. Ronin grabbed the terrified fleeing doctor by the
01:03:23collar, his eyes bloodshot like a cornered beast. Impossible! I checked her myself that day!
01:03:29Her breathing was steady, and her temperature was normal! Even you personally diagnosed it as a
01:03:34common chill! How deprecate a poisoning story to me now! It was all fake! Madame Vanessa forced me to do
01:03:44it!
01:03:44It was her! She fed the little princess a forbidden illusion potion before you arrived,
01:03:49forcibly creating a false appearance of health! The doctor's words cut like knives,
01:03:57tearing Ronin's self-rightless arrogance to pieces. Madam Vanessa bribed me and threatened my
01:04:02family's lives to maintain the illusion, all to make you believe the primary mistress was just
01:04:06throwing a jealous fit, so you would ignore the mother and daughter, leaving the little princess
01:04:10to die from the poison! And... and that flask of sacred tree extract! Hearing the words sacred
01:04:16tree extract, Ronin's body shook violently, his face draining of all color. That spiritual medicine
01:04:22was given to the primary mistress out of my sudden flash of consciousness! It was not only an antidote to
01:04:26all poisons, but the soul hoped to save the little princess's life! Yet you, you detested the primary
01:04:31mistress and forcibly snatched that medicine away to secure the position of the perfectly healthy
01:04:36Jasper! Roman felt as if he'd been struck by lightning, all strength instantly draining from
01:04:41his body. Boundless darkness and immense regret swallowed him like a tsunami. He finally realized
01:04:47that Seraphina had been telling the truth all along. It was him, he, the father, blinded by favoritism
01:04:53and interest, who had personally snatched away his daughter's life-saving straw, pushing his newborn
01:04:59child into the abyss of death! A spray of crimson blood erupted from Ronin's mouth as he collapsed
01:05:06onto his knees on the freezing stone pavement, clutching his agonizingly painful chest, letting
01:05:12out a desperate, piercing streel. Seraphina! Iris! What have I done? What on earth have I done?!
01:05:22Immense regret drove Ronin completely mad. Disregarding the blood on his lips, he scrammed back to his feet
01:05:26and ran back to the main hall like a madman. At this moment, he no longer cared about supreme
01:05:32cooperation or reaching the peak. He only wanted to find his wife and save his daughter's life.
01:05:39Search! Mobilize all forces of the Wind Kingdom! Search every inch of land! And even if you have to hunt
01:05:45through the Forbidden Forest, bring back the primary mistress and the princess! Go now!
01:05:53However, one day passed, then two days, and for three whole days and nights, the elite high elves brought
01:06:00back nothing but the desperate news of no trace found. Seraphina seemed to have dissolved into the
01:06:05wind, vanishing completely without a trace. Failing to find his wife, Ronin's grief and self-blame
01:06:11gradually transformed into a towering Merlison test. He finally thought of the instigator, Vanessa.
01:06:17Vanessa! You vicious wretch! I will tear you into ten thousand pieces!
01:06:22Gripping the great sword of the Wind God that symbolized his kingdom's power,
01:06:26he strode toward Vanessa's bedchamber, brimming with murderous intent. He wanted to settle the score
01:06:31with that evil woman and use the blood of Vanessa and her son to atone for his actions against his
01:06:36wife
01:06:36and daughter. However, when he reached the chamber, he found it completely empty. Unleashing his divine
01:06:43sense, he followed a faint trace of magic straight into the desolate forest behind the temple.
01:06:49The moon was dark and the wind howled through the silence of the desolate forest behind the temple.
01:06:53Ronin concealed his presence, moving step by step into the shadow of the ancient trees with his great
01:06:58sword. But before he could see clearly, faint whispers and strugglings came from the thicket,
01:07:02falling clearly into his ears. Slow down. If that fool Ronin finds out, we are dead.
01:07:06What are you afraid of? He is completely distracted every day because of that wretch running around
01:07:10the world like a madman. How could he have time for us? I've already coordinated with Governor Gamma,
01:07:14while he will strip the treasury of all magic crystals and public funds tonight and run! Boom!
01:07:18Ronin's mind went completely blank. He knew these voices all too well. One belonged to his chief
01:07:22captain of the guards, Oswin, and the other belonged to Vanessa White Moonlight first love he had cherished
01:07:25for three years. Ronin trembled violently, staring dead at the disheveled man and woman entwiled behind the tree.
01:07:30Speaking of which, Ronin really is an absolute fool. For the past three days,
01:07:34he has been holding that fake bloodline report, comforting himself that Jasper is his child,
01:07:38completely unaware that the heir he raised with the kingdom's sacred medicine is actually your
01:07:41biological flesh and blood! The truth slapped Ronin across the face, shattering his remaining
01:07:47self-respect and pride. It turned out he was not only the murderer who had personally pushed his
01:07:50biological daughter to her death, but also the world's biggest fool who had raised a bastard child
01:07:54for a pair of adulterers. For three years, the kingdom was being eustopted.
01:07:59Insolent fools! You will pay for this!
01:08:03Unleashing and devluncted soul out when Ronin erupted the great sword dream of rock with unleashedly
01:08:06sentiment seals and the sentry green people flying. Oswin and Vanessa screamed as they hit the ground,
01:08:11when Vanessa saw Ronin, who stood there with overwhelming ferocity. She lost her wits and terror.
01:08:17Ronan! Listen to me explain it's not what it looks like! Shut up, you vicious horn! I will kill you!
01:08:23Oswin and Ronin have exhausted invite giant realized Zord off course due to a lax limit
01:08:27at the magic. Though this strike his teeth, he pulled Vanessa up and pringseled several
01:08:30poisonous smoke bombs. With a loud explosion, a toxic mist filled the area. By the time the storm
01:08:35blew the mist away, the disheveled couple had off-leaded the wind forest using their familiarity
01:08:39with the ground. As the cold wind blew, he looked around at the empty surroundings, appearing as
01:08:43though he had aged a hundred years. Ronin fell to his knees, his fingers digging into the dirt,
01:08:49as he wept desperately, like a beaten dog in the dead of night.
01:08:55Meanwhile, inside the flawless Radiant Temple of Life in the Supreme Sanctuary, Iris had completely
01:09:00recovered. She was now dressed in garments woven from the rarest golden silk and sitting in a cradle
01:09:05carved from 10,000-year-old Moonwa jiggling and blowing bubbles. The Supreme Divine mark on her forehead
01:09:10flowed with brilliant colors, exuding an incredibly noble bloodline. Standing beside the cradle,
01:09:15Serafina gently played with her daughter, her eyes filled only with maternal love.
01:09:19As for the past humiliations and affection, the High Elfin King slowly walked over to his daughter.
01:09:24Looking at his reborn granddaughter with affection, he then turned a serious gaze toward Serafina.
01:09:29My daughter, I have already ordered a complete block out against all past complications with the
01:09:34Wind Kingdom. Now that your bloodline has fully awakened and the supreme natural wings have grown
01:09:39behind your back, it is time for you to assume your rightful responsibilities.
01:09:44Serafina withdrawed her hand and turned to face her father, her gaze calm and instaurative,
01:09:48completely deblined of mortal weakness. Father, I understand. Romantic attachments are nothing but a
01:09:53self-inflicted trap. Only supreme power can allow me to control my destiny and protect my Iris for a
01:09:59lifetime of peace. The father laughed with relief and immediately announced. Good. I have already
01:10:05issued a decree to all kingdoms that the sanctuary ceremony will begin shortly. You will officially
01:10:09inherit the throne and become the first High Elfin Queen of our supreme sanctuary in 10,000 years.
01:10:16Meanwhile, the Wind Kingdom, far at the edge of the continent, had fallen into a perilous situation.
01:10:20Due to Vanessa and Oswin's betrayal and thief of the funds, a fierce internal conflict erupted within
01:10:25the kingdom. Worse still, because Serafina had erased her holy name and severed the tree of life
01:10:29withered, causing the kingdom's overall magic to rapidly decline and their barrier to... Romans sat
01:10:33on his broken throne, emaciated and covered in stubble, showing none of his past glory as a lord.
01:10:39Just then, an old servant tremblingly presented a gathering order from the supreme sanctuary.
01:10:44My lord, a divine oracle has arrived from the supreme sanctuary. The new supreme empress is about to
01:10:50ascend the throne, and the coronation ceremony requires all kingdoms to pay homage. Does our
01:10:55kingdom attend? A final ember of fanatical hope erupted in Ronan's eyes. He had no heart to manage
01:11:03the kingdom's mundane affairs, because he knew time was running out for the Wind Kingdom. Their only
01:11:08salvation lay in aligning with the supreme sanctuary. Go! Prepare the highest specification of gifts,
01:11:15and the entire kingdom will accompany me to the sanctuary to pay homage. Tupian-1 gripped the
01:11:20order tightly as if catching a final saving straw. I have heard that this Nuhai-His-Har-Welf is the
01:11:25swore of the wrecked of bloodlines and possessing immense warfare, and our Moro-Trov just sent me,
01:11:29along as we act as a perfectly submissive and respected to Camargo's protection from that
01:11:33steamius empress. Our kingdom will be completely saved! Little did he know, the opportunity he was so
01:11:39desperate to grovel for. Belonged to the very wife he had personally pushed into the abyss.
01:11:46Before the sanctuary coronation ceremony, the Fynding-Gwart belouched a rest in the simplest
01:11:50Eid at the Sekreshanth edge of Shengguang-Tung's out. It-nate stood a loon on the noon in the
01:11:54other Jathing-Belog-Sukat-I-Sant-Mar-The-D of Trun-Shempil surging through Bav-Fort-Nariad.
01:11:58Ronan's mins raced it as if something canate was awakening within that divine light. Images of Seraphina
01:12:03began to flash uncontrollably through his mind. Her shyness when they first met. Her tenderness when healing
01:12:09his wounds, and her cold, resoluced gaze as she left the withered tower holding their daughter.
01:12:17Aloina walked up behind him wearing a cloak. Looking at her distracted son, she let out a deep sigh.
01:12:23Roran, stop thinking about it. Tomorrow is the critical day to meet the Supreme Empress.
01:12:27The survival of our Wind Kingdom relies entirely on this single action. You must not lose your composure.
01:12:32Rayon withdraw his gaze, cripping his racing chest, a bitter smile playing on his lips.
01:12:36Mother, I was just thinking Rufina was still here. With her pure bloodline, would she also be happy
01:12:40for me seeing this grand sight of 10,000 kingdoms paying homage tomorrow?
01:12:43Regrettably, and no one could answer his belated affection and self-reflection.
01:12:47On the day of the ceremony, the Supreme Sanctuary shone with magnificent golden light,
01:12:51piercing the sky. The entire sacred mountain was to look invincible. Holy unicorns soared through the
01:12:56air as tribal leaders and ancient deities gathered to elders. Meanwhile, Rizmissli in the most remote
01:13:00corner at the outmost edge of the main hall, not even daring to raise their heads. As a sacred,
01:13:05ancient bell echoed through the heavens, a grand and vast chant filled the world.
01:13:08Silence across all kingdoms! We welcome the ascension of Her Majesty, the High Elven Queen!
01:13:14A supreme throne radiating immense authority slowly rose from the center of the tree.
01:13:19Ronan and his mother Aleda pressed their heads firmly against the freezing floor tiles,
01:13:23their bodies trembling violently under the supreme bloodline pressure that descended from above.
01:13:27Near of a strange procession under the immense pressure, Ronan managed to raise his head with
01:13:30great difficulty, wanting to look upon the mysterious Antress who could save his kingdom's life.
01:13:34However, when his gaze pierced through the golden light, and clearly saw the figure sitting upon the
01:13:41supreme throne, the massive natural wings unfurled behind her back, and the daughter she held in
01:13:47her arms sucking her fing, Roman's pupils shrank violently in an instant as if struck by lightning,
01:13:52his breath catching completely in his throat. That face, that noble, cold, and peerless High Elven
01:13:59Queen who ruled over the entire sanctuary was actually Seraphina!
01:14:06Seraphina?!
01:14:06Ronan's startled cry shattered the silence of the temple.
01:14:09High Priestess Alonda looked up and recognized the beautiful Empress, radiating absolute authority
01:14:14from the altar. She misconnected.
01:14:15I was wrong! I truly know I was wrong! Please, the useless woman they had trampled in the withered
01:14:20town. Two golden spears struck down with the force of natural law.
01:14:27She looked down upon him, who lay like a dead dog at the bottom of the steps while Iris blew
01:14:31bubbles
01:14:31in her arms. There was no hatred in her eyes. Only the disgust one would feel looking at an open
01:14:36sewer.
01:14:37Ronan, do you think you are worthy of speaking my holy name? Do you think you are worthy of calling
01:14:41my
01:14:41daughter's name? A golden beam of law became a massive hand of divine power and struck Fethi
01:14:45Ronan across the face. Slap! Half of his facial bones shatter against, and this slap is for your
01:14:51blindest side of his face and him comb-scheming woman to true wife. Slap! The harder backhand twisted
01:14:56your utter lack of conscience for personally stealing your biological daughter's life-saving medicine.
01:15:01The leaders of the various kingdoms expressed their disdain and spit in disapproval. Clutching his
01:15:07swollen face. Self-respect was publicly trampled before all kingdoms. His reputation was completely
01:15:13destroyed. Ronan, once a proud general, now knelt in the dust. His pleas echoed, empty and desperate.
01:15:29Seeing an opportunity, Alita cast aside all dignity and began copycating frantically.
01:15:32Your divine majesty for this of the Wind Kingdom being of the royal family thousand years, please
01:15:36stay your hand and save our withering tree of life! Looking at the mother and icon who were
01:15:40still calculating for benefits even now, the mockery on Seraphina's boobs deepened to the extreme.
01:15:46Save you? The Wind Kingdom only enjoyed its past glory because I nourished it with my supreme source
01:15:50power, since you will reclaim everything I granted you. She slowly raised her hand,
01:15:53curving her fingers, and made a grasping motion toward Ronan and Alation from afar.
01:15:57In an instant, the ancient wind lords inside Ronan and Alina, which had been granted by the royal
01:16:01family, turned into strands of golden light and were violently stripped from their bones and souls!
01:16:07My magic! My cultivation!
01:16:13It was a stripping process more painful than death. Within moments, Ronan's cultivation plummeted
01:16:17from a high tea lord to something inferior even to an ordinary low-tier elf, turning him into a complete
01:16:21and vital. Pass down my divine ethuk-kane-funtai-zibic-karen of the ward-kind to point of his
01:16:25age, he reduced to sinful withered wood, forbidden from ever entering the sanctuary.
01:16:28Someone, throw this disgusting pile of garbage out! A divine guard kicked Ronan hard in the abdomen,
01:16:33sending the two broken, stripped, and thoroughly disgraced wretcheds tumbling down the nine layers
01:16:39of the altar, amid the laughter of all kingdoms. Internal conflict spread like wildfire through
01:16:45the Wind Kingdom, and the anger of the lower-tier elves completely overthrew the main manor.
01:16:49Meanwhile, lying on a bed in a side purveal, the old woman Alina trembled inside the empty room.
01:16:53She had previously been blinded by greed, secrecy accepting mass amounts of illicit wealth from
01:16:56Vanessa, Oswin, and Gamma to secure their positions. Even the forceful snatching of
01:16:59Iris' sacred tree extract had been driven largely by her own greed now. Retribution had arrived.
01:17:04The kingdom was ruined, the treasures were lost, and even the eldest grandson Jasper,
01:17:08whom she had cherished night and day as the future hope of the kingdom, was confirmed to be nothing to
01:17:12dirty bastard. The heavy and terrifying karmic backlash transformed into invisible bullets,
01:17:16cutting at her guilty soul night and day. The extreme fear and massive mental shock drove the normally
01:17:20arrogant and harsh old woman completely sane. That night, as the sounds of rioting echo outside,
01:17:26the old woman ended her guilty life with a white silk cord hanging from a beam in the cold, lonely
01:17:31main manor. The next morning, when Ronan pushed open the door and saw his mother's stiff body hanging
01:17:40in mid-air, he only let out a few horny, tragic laughs, unable to squeeze out even a single tear.
01:17:48Meanwhile, thousands of miles away from the Wind Kingdom at the frozen border,
01:17:51an incredibly luxurious sacred carriage was hurtling through the sky. The carriage compartment was
01:17:55stuffed with radiant, rare treasures, the entire foundation of the Wind Kingdom,
01:17:59that Vanessa and Chief Cap two wolves shone only with absolute Oz greed for wealth.
01:18:03Vanessa! This chest of divine items belongs to me! Without my guard team coordinating, you wouldn't
01:18:09have even made it out the main gates of the manor. Nonsense! Without the Lord's Talisman that I stole,
01:18:13what would you even be? These treasures are my reliance for the rest of my life! Don't you dare take
01:18:17a
01:18:17single penny! In the face of interest, their past familiarity vanished completely. Due to an unfair
01:18:21distribution of the spoils, malice erupted in both of them, and they immediately engaged in a fierce
01:18:26magical brawl inside the narrow carriage. Wild wind blades and toxic mist clashed violently inside
01:18:31the compartment, creating continuous loud explosions. As the out-of-control carriage traveled along a highly
01:18:35treacherous mountain path. The draught bears panicked and went wild. Amid a piercing streak, the out-of-control
01:18:52carriage plunged off the cliff edge, carrying the couple and the treasures they had schemed so hard
01:18:56to steal, crashing heavily into the boulder-street bottom of the deep valley. Beneath the deep valley,
01:19:03the rain poured heavily, the carriage had shattered completely, with broken wood and magic crystals
01:19:07scattered across the ground. Amid the rubble, the bodies of Vanessa and Oshwick lay twisted together,
01:19:12torn apart by the wild magic to the point of being unrecognizable, dying an incredibly gruesome death.
01:19:17That green tea face that had once used illusion potions to maintain a false appearance of
01:19:22perfection was now sliced and bloodied by the rocks.
01:19:28Buzz!
01:19:28Space rippled slightly as several royal guards clad in pure gold robes quietly descended upon
01:19:33the crash site. Seraphina did not even need to act personally, merely sending the sanctuary's
01:19:37cleanup group to wrap things up. This is the heavenly karma for those who betray her majesty.
01:19:42The guards raised their hands, golden light surging from from their palms. As the magic
01:19:46arenas activated, the scattered ancient treasures and sacred resource of the Wind Kingdom were entirely
01:19:50gathered and reclaimed. These items carried a significant amount of fortune, and now that they were
01:19:54continuously funneled into the treasury of the supreme always had. The villains had calculated
01:19:59everything, only to lose their lives in the end, and turn the Wind Kingdom's thousands of years of
01:20:05accumulation into a stepping stone to secure Seraphia's supreme royal power, which was ironic to the
01:20:11extreme. Having lost everything, he sank completely into boundless darkness. He had no mother,
01:20:17no kingdom, and no status to pride himself on. Whenever night fell across the empty ruins,
01:20:21he seemed to hear her gentle voices and another's painful cries from her swaddling clothes. Those
01:20:24memories transformed into the most brutal torture, tearing his mind apart bit by bit.
01:20:29Seraphina, look I brought the sweetest spring water for our daughter today. He began to exhibit
01:20:33severe split personality symptoms. At times he would kneel on the ground and slap himself frantically,
01:20:38crying out that he shouldn't have snatched his daughter's life-saving medicine. At other times,
01:20:42he would embrace the empty air gently, pretending his wife and child were still by his side.
01:20:46Vanessa, you vicious red! Give me back my daughter! Give me back my happiness!
01:20:53He drowned his sorrows in alcohol all day, his mind becoming increasingly fractured,
01:20:57as he remained trapped indefinitely within the endless 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
01:21:08broken by regret. His hands were blooded and his fingernails filled with mud, from frantically
01:21:14digging through the rubble for garments Seraphina had left behind.
01:21:19Look at that. That's the wise lord who trampled his true wife for a green tea woman back then.
01:21:29He really is a pathetic dog. Ronian was completely deaf to these mocks,
01:21:35merely clutching a tattered cloth doll tightly to his chest, a toy he had fashioned for Iris from memory.
01:21:40Since his magic was entirely gone, his appearance was aging at a visible rate,
01:21:44his long hair turning into dry white strands. Whenever the harsh alcohol hit his throat,
01:21:50he would begin to self-harm. He used sharp stones to carve the name Seraphina deeply into his arms,
01:21:58drawing blood, yet it could not stop the splitting pain in his chest.
01:22:02Ha ha ha! Seraphina! This is retribution! This is my retribution! You let me live,
01:22:12only to find that every second of being alive is an absolute hell!
01:22:17The once high and mighty king had ultimately transformed into a mentally degranged madman
01:22:21fighting with wild dogs for food in the ruins. Death would be a merciful release for him,
01:22:27and remaining conscious to endure this life sentence of regret, was his ultimate punishment.
01:22:33As for Jasper, the three-year-old fake he who had been pampered by the entire kingdom,
01:22:37he was, after all, an innocent and ignorant child who did not understand the greed and sins of adults.
01:22:43With the deaths of Vanair and Osquin, the vanity, privileges and flambrity that had once
01:22:46surrounded him vanished overnight. Once the truth of the royal bloodline array spread,
01:22:50he was no longer the high and mighty young master, and the silver of magic he had forced out by
01:22:54stealing
01:22:54iris sacred tree extract completely withered due to a lack of subsequent nourishment. The forged mark
01:22:59on his forehead disappeared, and he was reduced to a perfectly ordinary, mediocre child.
01:23:04Take him away. Let him become an ordinary farming child at the border.
01:23:10This ruin of the Wind Kingdom should not retain a bloodline of sin.
01:23:30He no longer had a luxurious golden cradle or a crowd of attendants surrounding him.
01:23:35He was sent to a remote village far from power struggles, becoming an ordinary orphan who knew
01:23:40nothing of his birth parents. Perhaps, staying far away from the grievers here.
01:23:46The coronation ceremony lasted for seven days before finally came to a successful conclusion.
01:23:51Serafina stood atop the highest altar of the Supreme Sanctuary, with past severing her ties,
01:23:55completely submission, weakness, and ridiculous mortal affection,
01:23:58to radiate in natural wings behind her back over all the war. And by her side,
01:24:02she held the hand of a beautiful, smiling young girl. Iris had completely recovered. Not only was the
01:24:06supreme bloodline within her body fully awakened, but her large eyes shone as brightly as a galaxy.
01:24:10Shaking her little head, she held Seraf onto the divine throne that symbolized the highest power
01:24:14of the Elfin world amid the mountain-shattering worship of all living beings.
01:24:18Mother, it's so beautiful here. Will anyone dare to bully us from now on?
01:24:25Serafina looked down, gently stroking the brilliant supreme golden mark on her forehead,
01:24:30her eyes filled with maternal resolve.
01:24:33No, my darling. From this day forward, Mother will protect you,
01:24:37and no one will ever be able to harm you in the slightest.
01:24:40Mother and daughter sat side by side upon the divine throne.
01:24:42Beneath 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,
01:24:49ruling over the sanctuary and beginning a legendary era that belonged entirely to them.
