00:00Our human princess Chloe marrying the great Prince Liam is an absolute supreme honor for our entire kingdom.
00:07A mortal woman with absolutely no magic.
00:09If it weren't for the complete annihilation of those despicable, vile, dark elves,
00:13would our noble crown prince really sloop to marry her?
00:16Three years. After today, I'll be the light elf queen.
00:21Your highness.
00:27Your highness.
00:30They're all waiting for your bride.
00:34Bride? That thing that doesn't even have elfin blood?
00:39Disgusting. I can't stand looking at that mortal face for a second. Not like you.
00:44At least your mother was a light elf.
00:47Then why marry her?
00:48Once the contract signed, I can use the ancient artifact in her possession.
00:53That artifact lets me complete blood ascension and rule this world completely.
01:01After you get it, toss her in the mines. Let her dig with the half-beast slaves till she drops
01:06dead.
01:06Sure. Do what you want with a used-up thing.
01:09Then the light elf queen's seat?
01:12Was always yours.
01:15The mines, till I drop dead. But she carries the artifact bloodline. What if she catches on?
01:26No magic, no allies. Even her daddy's on our side. She's nothing.
01:31A tool. Use it. Toss it.
01:45Let me show you all what happens when the tool snaps.
02:03My bride. You've kept everyone waiting.
02:07Distinguished guests, before I sign, I have one question for my fiancé.
02:13Of course. Ask away.
02:15After you get the artifact. Tossing me in the mines right away, or waiting till after the ascension.
02:21Chloe, what are you saying?
02:23I'm just now in the side room. While you were on top of my stepsister, your exact words.
02:27A tool. Use it. Toss it.
02:34Light elf purity. Go ask your Mia how much she's got left.
02:40This wedding is off.
02:42Chloe, what's gotten into you? Come, let's talk in the back.
02:45Cut the act. Even my father's on your side, right?
02:48Chloe, calm down.
02:50You don't have the guts to stand with me, so don't say anything.
02:56Royal Guard, seal all exits.
02:59Last chance. Hand over the artifact, and I might let you live.
03:06Stop her! The artifact can't be lost!
03:16Here it is. The night caught.
03:20Get out alive. Then settle the score.
03:42Intruder, kneel.
03:45Take me to your king.
03:48A mortal giving order.
03:52A human princess, in her getaway gear, stumbling into my territory. What do you want?
03:59Marry me.
04:00You know who I am?
04:02The rumored dark elf king who lost all his magic due to a damaged magic core.
04:07You've done your homework.
04:09But what makes you think I'd say yes?
04:11The ascension artifact.
04:13My mother's legacy, the strongest of the ancient relics.
04:16It can heal your damaged magic core.
04:19Go on.
04:20The artifact has an ancient restriction.
04:23Only someone formerly bonded with me as a spouse can activate its power.
04:27So, what do you want?
04:29Help me take revenge on the light elks.
04:31Crush every single one of those sanctimonious bastards under feet.
04:34You know what a pact with me means.
04:36Break it.
04:37Then kill me.
04:38I'm not afraid to die.
04:40I'm only afraid of dying before I see them on their knees.
04:44Interesting.
04:46Once a blood oath is formed, it ends only in death.
04:50Sure about this?
04:52Do it.
05:00From now on, you belong to the Court of Midnight.
05:04But remember, this is just a transaction.
05:07Don't imagine I will ever truffle in love with you.
05:10I don't care.
05:11From now on, you owe me a reckoning.
05:17The artifact isn't on me.
05:19The astrolap is still in the capital, my mother's quarters.
05:21Didn't mention it when you signed.
05:24Mentioning it now.
05:26Would you have let me go back?
05:28Crush it, and I lock onto your location.
05:30Dark Elite Squad escorts you in.
05:40And you?
05:41Me showing up would blow the whole thing.
05:43You know that city better than I do.
05:45The whole city's hunting me.
05:48And you're sending a handful of guys?
05:50Enough.
05:55It better be.
06:00What if I don't come back?
06:04You will.
06:08Princess, what's up there?
06:10My mother's room.
06:12No one's been in for 19 years.
06:13Wait here.
06:14Quick in, quick out.
06:17Mom, got it back.
06:22Fresh ward.
06:24Exit sealed.
06:25Left side tunnel leads to the drainage.
06:27Tear the ground apart.
06:28She's down here.
06:30Chloe!
06:30Come out on your own.
06:31I might still let you keep some dignity.
06:36Dead end.
06:39Crush it.
06:40No.
06:41Not yet.
06:42Not the last resort.
06:47You said you weren't coming.
06:49Said showing up would blow it.
06:50Didn't say I wouldn't come.
06:51You followed the whole way?
06:53I thought your magic core was damaged.
06:57Concealment doesn't need a core.
06:59Parlor trick.
07:02Damaged magic core.
07:03He should struggle just walking.
07:05But he followed all night.
07:07Easier than me.
07:08How much is this man hiding?
07:12Take it.
07:13It's yours now.
07:14My end of the deal.
07:16As I thought.
07:17The relic answers to your blood.
07:18I can borrow its power.
07:19Can't claim it.
07:20So I'm not useless to you yet?
07:21You think I keep you around just for this?
07:22Keep it.
07:23Activate it when the time comes.
07:24Follow me.
07:25Since the relic's bound to you,
07:26you need something to keep you alive.
07:28The obsidian blade.
07:29Only one on the continent.
07:31Severs the magic source.
07:32Whatever power keeps someone alive,
07:33one cut and the link snaps.
07:34Giving this to me?
07:35Not worried I'll use it on you?
07:37If you can get close enough, be my guest.
07:39What if I actually do someday?
07:40Then I deserve it.
07:42Come, I'll teach you.
07:45Reverse grip.
07:46Thumb on the pommel.
07:50Arc the slash.
07:52Don't thrust.
07:53This blade doesn't need force.
07:54It needs angle.
08:02Again.
08:03On your own.
08:07How was that?
08:09Third one's good.
08:10First two.
08:10Hesitant.
08:12Hesitate in a fight and you die first.
08:14I've never been in a fight.
08:15You will be.
08:17Soon.
08:17Your Majesty!
08:18Light Elf army massing at the north border.
08:203,000 armored.
08:21The Light Elf prince leads them in person.
08:23Faster than I expected.
08:24I'm coming.
08:25He came looking for trouble.
08:27I want him to see exactly who I stand with.
08:29Keep that blade close.
08:30What I just taught you.
08:32Might need it soon.
08:53King of the Dark Court.
08:55Heard your core's half shattered.
08:58Can't even hold your own wards.
09:02And now you're harboring a fugitive?
09:07What, Victor Seal crushed you so hard you can't talk?
09:10Or maybe you're just meant to be a mortal woman's guard dog.
09:15You done, yeah?
09:17Oh.
09:18A few nights warming a Dark Elf's bed and you've got nerve.
09:22Chloe.
09:24Beg me on your knees, I might still let you walk back alive.
09:273,000 soldiers just to talk shit.
09:29Liam, how scared of me are you?
09:32Needing an army for courage.
09:33Scared of you?
09:34A woman spit out by her own-
09:36Fat out!
09:37I'm the one who ripped your face off in front of everyone and throw it on the ground.
09:41Forgot?
09:42Or were you on your knees too fast to see?
09:44You think a crippled backer lets you mouth off at me?
09:48He can't even protect himself.
09:51Protection?
09:51I don't need anyone's protection.
09:55I just need someone beside me.
09:57To clap when you're on your knees.
09:59Go ask your Mia, while I was being spat out, whose bed was she?
10:05Bitch, shut your mouth!
10:14Look.
10:16At.
10:17Me.
10:18She's mine.
10:19Next time you aim at her, that's when you stop breathing.
10:26Cheap tricks.
10:29I'm a cripple with a shattered core.
10:31Don't try to bluff me.
10:33RIE!
10:35NOOOO!
10:40Foolish.
10:45Impossible.
10:46His core was supposed to be...
10:48What is this power?
10:53Your Highness!
10:54We're pulling back!
10:55Move!
10:57Impossible!
10:58His core is shattered!
11:00He can't have that kind of power!
11:09Was that...
11:10Even the same person?
11:21Explain.
11:25Explain what?
11:26You said your core was damaged.
11:29You save energy just walking.
11:31Then you crush a light spear barehanded and force 3,000 soldiers to their knees.
11:35That's damaged?
11:38What did you bring me?
11:41What?
11:42The artifact.
11:44The Ascension artifact.
11:46You think it's just for show?
11:49You're saying that power back there was from the artifact?
11:53The relic answers to your bloodline, but it resonates with my core.
11:57It doesn't just patch the cracks.
11:59It can temporarily amplify.
12:00Those few seconds out there, I was borrowing its power.
12:03And you?
12:03Your own strength?
12:04How much do you actually have left?
12:10Not enough to protect you twice.
12:13So, what you just did, that was already your limit?
12:16More or less.
12:17The artifact has a code round.
12:19Next time I can use it is in three days.
12:22If Liam comes back before then...
12:23He won't dare.
12:24He was terrified today.
12:26He won't be back anytime soon.
12:32Why didn't you say so earlier?
12:34The artifact means that much to you.
12:37You should have told me from the start.
12:39Tell you what?
12:40That I'm dying?
12:41Please marry me and save my life?
12:42At least that's better than lying to me.
12:44I didn't lie.
12:45The pact is a fair trade.
12:47You want revenge?
12:48I need the artifact.
12:50Motive doesn't change the outcome.
12:55Three days.
12:55I'll hold down the fort for three days.
12:57You rest properly.
13:03No need.
13:06I'm not asking.
13:08You're half dead and won't let anyone help.
13:11What's wrong with you?
13:15Suit yourself.
13:20This man.
13:21Barely holding on and still too proud to admit it.
13:25Can't even say I need help.
13:51Victor, he's already reached in.
13:54The seal only blocks his body. His influence and servants slip right through.
13:59Seen enough?
14:00Door opened on its own. Artifact bloodline?
14:03Yeah, no defense against you in here.
14:07Victor, you've been studying how to fight him.
14:093,000 years ago he descended once. Half the continent turned to ash. Three races nearly went extinct.
14:16Something on that level? And you're planning to face it alone?
14:20In my current state. No chance head on.
14:24You said the artifact amplifies your power. Even with that you can't win?
14:29The amplification's temporary. Victor is a 3,000 year ancient demon. One burst won't cut it.
14:39Then what's your plan?
14:40This. Ancient banishment array. Same one that sealed Victor 3,000 years ago.
14:45I don't need to beat him. Just lure him in. Artifact power seeped into my core.
14:49I stand at the center as bait. Victor chases it in. The moment he enters, the array activates. Sealed again.
14:54You're at the center. Won't you get sealed in too?
14:56Array only targets abyss in blood. I'm a dark elf.
14:59You've been preparing since the first crack appeared.
15:02Yeah.
15:02The artifact. Marrying me. All for this.
15:05At first, yes.
15:06And now? Fine if you don't answer. I've already decided to help you anyway.
15:09Now you know. This room's open to you anytime. Break the seal. Release the wings.
15:14Only then will the array have enough power. 120 seconds. Past that, the abyssal brand devours my mind completely.
15:21I become another Victor.
15:25She can't know. She'd stop me.
15:34Found you, little girl.
15:40Here we go.
15:42Arc. Angle was right.
15:53Someone!
15:58Are you hurt?
16:01Leg got grabbed. I can move.
16:04How many?
16:05Two. Killed the first one myself.
16:09Victor's toxin. Spreads if untreated.
16:12All these things keep coming. Then what? Can't just wait to get moored every night.
16:17From tonight, I'm outside your door. They come again. They die. You almost died. On my territory. Under my watch.
16:26But I didn't. You came. You always come.
16:39You know what you're doing.
16:42Yeah.
16:44I'll be outside tonight. Sleep.
16:47Dante.
16:47Mm.
16:47What's the day?
16:50Mm...
16:55Mm...
16:55...
16:56Mmm...
16:58Who is the soul in the world today?
16:58Mm-hmm.
16:59...
17:14Hmm.
17:15.
17:45.
18:15.
18:45.
19:15.
19:45.
19:45.
19:45.
19:46.
19:46.
19:46.
19:47.
19:47.
19:48.
19:48.
19:59.
19:59.
20:03.
20:11Something's off.
20:12What's wrong?
20:13The creature is Victor's, yes.
20:15But there's light elf bloodline mixed into the magic high concentration.
20:19Light elf?
20:19What do you mean?
20:20A light elf has been offering blood to Victor willingly.
20:23Not forced, not in small ghosts.
20:25Long term.
20:27Massive.
20:27Consensual.
20:28Who would willingly bind themselves to an abyss demon?
20:31Victor's creatures carry its visual fragments.
20:33Whatever it's seen recently stays inside the creature.
20:36I'll extract it.
20:37You can see what Victor has seen?
20:38Incomplete.
20:39Just fragments.
20:40But enough.
20:43You sure you want to see this?
20:45Play it.
21:04This is...
21:05A demon Futus.
21:08Your step-sisters carrying an abyss demon spawn.
21:11She sleeps with Liam, then turns around and mates with a demon.
21:14It's not just depravity. A demon futa serves as Victor's vessel at birth.
21:16Once it's born, my seal won't matter anymore.
21:18Why would she do this? She already has Liam.
21:19Your stepster's bloodline Puritan falls short. One tear below the crown forever.
21:22This crystal, how long does it keep?
21:24Permanently.
21:25Perfect. A little present for Liam.
21:39A personal letter from the Light Elf Crown Prince to the Court of Midnight and the former princess sheltering.
21:51The Midsummer Star Festival approaches.
21:53The Crown Prince cordially invites the Court of Midnight.
21:57Also, bring the stray bitch along. Let her see what a real queen's coronation looks like.
22:01Mia will officially be crowned queen to be at the ceremony. All continental nobility attending.
22:06The Prince says, last chance at dignity. Miss it. It's gone.
22:16Coronation. He's making me a queen.
22:19Going?
22:22Of course.
22:23Got a gift to deliver.
22:25Almost forgot.
22:26Another message from the Prince.
22:28Ask her if she's used to being a pet in the Dark Elf Den.
22:33Homesick?
22:34There's still a spot in the mines waiting.
22:37Relay two things.
22:38First, keep that mining spot for himself.
22:40Second, see him at the ceremony.
22:48How high does he want to build that stage?
22:51Higher the better.
22:53Build it to the clouds when it falls.
22:56The whole continent hears the crash.
23:12The stray bitch actually showed.
23:15Thought you'd chickened out.
23:16You called.
23:17You called.
23:17I came.
23:18Cut the crap.
23:20Last chance.
23:21Hand over the artifact before the ceremony.
23:24I'll let you live as a commoner.
23:27Best deal you'll get.
23:28Mia's about to be queen, and you're still after my stuff?
23:31Mia has the purest Light Elf blood.
23:34She deserves the throne.
23:35You not fit to carry her shoes.
23:41Purest?
23:42Let me show you how pure your purest really is.
24:05Fake!
24:06This is fake!
24:07You fabricated!
24:09Fabricated!
24:09Visual residue from Victor's creature.
24:12I can't fake this.
24:14And the Dark King has no reason to bother.
24:17She said only me.
24:19She said only...
24:21That thing in her belly isn't yours.
24:23Demon's fawn.
24:25Your pure queen-to-be.
24:26Has been mating with an Abyss demon all along.
24:38See you at the ceremony.
24:40Then the whole continent will know exactly what your queen is.
24:58Take me to your king.
25:00Please.
25:07The Light Elf crowned prince.
25:10Barefoot on my doorstep.
25:11What an honor.
25:16I want in.
25:17In on what?
25:19The festival.
25:20You're planning to expose that recording.
25:22I'll help.
25:22I'll put Mia on the pedestal myself.
25:24Push her to the very top.
25:26Then you blow it apart.
25:27Three months ago you said,
25:29toss me in the mines to die.
25:31Now you're kneeling here.
25:32She played me.
25:34Made me in front of everyone.
25:35The fool who got cocketed by a demon.
25:38So you hate her now.
25:40Done using her so you want to toss her too?
25:42I want her to fall from the highest point.
25:44The whole continent watching her face ground into the dirt.
25:47You want that too.
25:48I know you do.
25:52How?
25:53Specifically?
25:53At the festival I declare Mia the purest bloodline of the Light Elves.
25:59Crown her myself.
26:00Let her bask in glory before the whole continent.
26:02Then you play the crystal.
26:04Pedestal to abyss.
26:06One step.
26:08Deal.
26:09But one condition.
26:11After it's done, you don't touch Mia.
26:13How she's dealt with is my call.
26:29Six squads from tonight seal every boundary gate around the festival grounds.
26:34Locked tight.
26:36No exits left.
26:52Nervous?
26:53No.
26:54Been waiting too long for this.
26:56After tomorrow, no going back.
26:57Mia's done.
26:58Helena snaps.
26:59Your father-
27:00I don't have a father.
27:01Not since he chose their side.
27:04Good.
27:05Then tomorrow,
27:06show them who you are.
27:11Sleep early.
27:13Tomorrow's a long day.
27:47Cage sealed.
27:50Tomorrow,
27:51nobody runs.
28:06Oh, my ungrateful stepdaughter.
28:08Actually has the nerve to come back.
28:22Fled the capital.
28:23Defected to the Dark Elves.
28:25Now showing up at the festival.
28:27Chloe,
28:28your skin gets thicker by the day.
28:31Mother,
28:32don't be upset.
28:33Sister has been with Dark Elves so long,
28:35she's probably forgotten basic etiquette.
28:37We shouldn't pick on her.
28:40Today is Mia's coronation.
28:42The purest light alien blood,
28:44about to become queen.
28:46You,
28:47a mortal with no magic,
28:49a traitor,
28:50what are you here for?
28:51To see what you lost?
28:53Hmm.
28:59You're right.
29:00I'm here to watch
29:02how high you can still stand.
29:13Mother,
29:15she doesn't seem angry at all.
29:16That's exactly why.
29:44Lords and ladies,
29:46at this Midsummer Star Festival,
29:49I have an announcement
29:49for the entire continent.
30:05See?
30:06The purity arc,
30:07it doesn't react.
30:08My daughter's bloodline,
30:10beyond question.
30:11A thousand years of light elf blood,
30:14the purest heir,
30:16Mia.
30:16Today I proclaim her
30:18queen to be
30:18of the light elves.
30:28The purity array didn't react.
30:31Of course not.
30:32The thing inside her
30:33hasn't taken form.

42:18You come back.
42:36Stab chest.
42:39Cut it off.
43:16Take me home.
43:35How long?
43:37Two days.
43:38Victor's dead completely.
43:40Nothing from underground.
43:45You've been here the whole time.
43:48Get up when you can.
43:50There's something to do.
43:52What?
43:56My mother's death.
44:10Here.
44:15Stardust powder.
44:18Microdose every three days.
44:20Month 14.
44:22Target begins showing false bloodline decline.
44:25Three years.
44:27A full three years.
44:31Helena's handwriting.
44:33But Stardust powder can only be prepared by-
44:36Royalty.
44:36My father supplied it.
44:38Helena administered.
44:40Tomorrow.
44:41The Elder Council.
44:42I'm collecting this debt in front of everyone.
44:53Princess Chloe.
44:55You bring soldiers into our sacred hall.
44:58What is your intent?
45:00Collecting a debt.
45:10This is a Stardust powder dosage log.
45:15Subject, Princess Iris, your mother.
45:18Three years of chronic poisoning.
45:19Helena's handwriting.
45:20Source.
45:21Only royalty can prepare it.
45:23I want my father here.
45:33Chloe, that's-
45:34I don't need your explanation.
45:36I need your confession.
45:38It was me.
45:39I took the Stardust powder from the Royal Apothecary.
45:42Gave it to Helena.
45:44Murder of a spouse.
45:44Assassination of Royal Bloodline.
45:46Under Light Health law.
45:47Aldrich.
45:48Stripped of all noble status and royal blood privileges.
45:51Life imprisonment in the Bottomless Dungeon.
45:53Chloe!
45:54She was your mother!
45:56I'm still your father!
45:58You're not.
45:59From the day you handed Helena that poison, you're nothing.
46:04Helena.
46:05I want her alive.
46:08Find her.
46:12For the first time in a thousand years,
46:15the Elder Council crowns directly.
46:18Today's recipient,
46:19daughter of Princess Iris,
46:22rightful heir of the Light Elf Bloodline.
46:44A mortal body.
46:46No magic.
46:47What makes you fit to rule?
46:48I don't need magic.
46:50What I need,
46:51I earned myself.
47:17I have slain the beast and claimed my crown.
47:20Behold my people.
47:23I don't promise purity.
47:24I promise truth.
47:38What are you looking at?
47:40You.
47:46What's wrong?
47:57What does this mean?
47:58A life signature?
47:59A life signature.
48:00Not yours.
48:01Another's.
48:02Gold is the mark of Light Elf blood.
48:05I'm mortal.
48:07You're a dark elf.
48:08It shouldn't be possible.
48:09The impossible.
48:10Already happened.
48:13Blood oath.
48:14You traded the artifact for my protection.
48:17Now Victor's dead.
48:18The artifact's in your hands.
48:19You're queen.
48:20You don't need this pact anymore.
48:22I'm dissolving it now.
48:24From today,
48:25you're free.
48:27You owe me nothing.
48:31Done?
48:33Done.
48:34Then my being with you now
48:35isn't because of a pact.
48:37Not because of convenience.
48:39Not because of any deal.
48:42It's because I choose to.
48:56Promise not to be late.
48:58Two minutes over.
49:00There's something.
49:01Put it off a long time.
49:03Thought of a hundred ways to say it.
49:05All too stupid.
49:07So I'll just say it.
49:10I've lied to you many times.
49:12Probably will do stupid things again.
49:14But one thing was never a lie.
49:16I want to be with you.
49:18Not a year or two.
49:20As long as...
49:21As long as possible.
49:31No magic.
49:33The human way.
49:38Because you...
49:38I know why.
49:52There's one thing
49:53I never lied to you about either.
49:55What?
49:57What?
50:01I know.
50:02I know.
