00:01Today, I pushed open that chamber door.
00:05Sunlight blinded me.
00:06He stood there.
00:08Golden eyes burning into mine.
00:12Then he swept me off my feet.
00:14His voice cracked.
00:16Do you know how long I've waited?
00:17I couldn't answer.
00:19Because he kissed me before I could.
00:21Not gentle.
00:22He bit down on my lip.
00:24All the hunger of three years.
00:26Released in one breath.
00:27When he finally pulled back,
00:29a single tear slid down his cheek.
00:32If you ever lock me out again,
00:34I'll bite through the door.
00:36The silver dagger pierced my chest.
00:39The one gripping the handle was my beloved Lysander.
00:42He was the silver serpent I had personally lifted from his egg.
00:46The one I had named myself.
00:48I had fed him drops of blood from my fingertips.
00:50I had held him close in my blankets during nights when he feared the darkness.
00:54I had turned down three marriage proposals from the Azure Scale Society for his sake.
01:00And now.
01:01He was using the dagger I had forged for him to pin me.
01:05Lycia.
01:07Why?
01:09Elara.
01:11I loved Serafina from the start.
01:14You were the one who was delusional.
01:16He pushed the dagger deeper.
01:19My breath caught for half a second.
01:21Behind him crouched another face.
01:23Serafina.
01:24The sister I had grown up with since childhood.
01:27The color was creeping back into her pale face.
01:30Fed by my blood.
01:31From the wound in my chest.
01:33She opened her eyes.
01:35Lazily hooking her arm around Lysander's neck.
01:38Darling.
01:40A little more.
01:42Her blood isn't enough yet.
01:45My magic core still isn't fully healed.
01:50Elara.
01:51She smiled so sweetly.
01:54Lysander has only ever loved me.
01:57Blood filled my throat.
01:59I couldn't speak.
02:00Couldn't scream.
02:01Couldn't even breathe.
02:04Seraphina Veil.
02:06Not even as a ghost!
02:09The moment the dagger was pulled out, I closed my eyes.
02:13Darkness swallowed me whole.
02:17My eyes snapped open.
02:20Elara.
02:20This golden egg is for you.
02:22The sunlight was so bright it hurt.
02:25This wasn't the deathly gray of Shadow's Abyss.
02:28This was real.
02:29Brilliant morning light streaming through the Silverblade Order's Great Hall.
02:34I looked down.
02:35No dagger in my chest.
02:37No blood.
02:38Just a neatly pressed apprentice uniform.
02:41I raised my hand.
02:43My fingers were trembling.
02:45Seraphina Veil stood before me.
02:47She was looking at me with gentle blue eyes.
02:50Pushing a gleaming golden dragon egg toward me.
02:53This beautiful one is for you.
02:54She smiled with perfect innocence.
02:58Even if I can't hatch anything.
03:00But you're different.
03:02My brothers will help me find another.
03:04You have nothing.
03:05This one suits you better.
03:07Over 200 apprentices in the hall turned to stay.
03:10What the hell?
03:12And they were right.
03:13Seraphina Veil.
03:15Only daughter of House Veil.
03:17Giving away something valuable?
03:19This was rarer than snow falling in the Northern Territories in July.
03:25Master Aldrich set down his wine goblet from the high seat.
03:29Sarah, are you certain?
03:31Certain.
03:32The master nodded with satisfaction.
03:35Sarah has grown up.
03:36I lowered my head, hiding the curve of my lips.
03:39If I hadn't died once before, I probably would have been moved to tears by those blue eyes of hers.
03:46In my previous life, Seraphina had chosen the golden egg without hesitation.
03:52Alara, this egg is too expensive.
03:55I'm afraid it would drain your family's resources.
03:59I'll reluctantly take it.
04:01And what happened?
04:01She poured all her family's treasures into ancient ruins.
04:05Tears of starlight.
04:06Everything she had.
04:08The golden egg's light dimmed day by day.
04:11After a month, it went completely dark.
04:14Stillborn.
04:14And me?
04:16My dull gray egg hatched the first nine-coiled silver serpent dragon this continent had seen in a thousand years.
04:24Elders from the Azure Scale Society rushed over overnight, kneeling before me, calling me their lord.
04:30All of the Silverblade Order's resources flowed toward me.
04:34Seraphina was consumed with jealousy.
04:36She tried to cause trouble for me repeatedly, only to be scolded back by the master each time.
04:43Even her proud brothers advised her.
04:45Stop making a scene.
04:47That silver serpent only acknowledges Alara.
04:50But only I knew the truth.
04:52White serpents were inherently evil.
04:54Masters of manipulating human hearts.
04:57After I repeatedly refused his requests for a magical resonance pact, he had set his sights on Seraphina.
05:04Because she was born with a magical resonance constitution.
05:09On the last day of my previous life,
05:12Seraphina and I both fell into Shadow's Abyss.
05:15That place was the burial ground of the Shadow World,
05:18capable of corroding souls.
05:21Seraphina's magic core was corrupted.
05:24To save her,
05:26Lysander drained every drop of blood from my body.
05:29He said my blood was rich with magical power.
05:32It could repair her magic core.
05:35Before I died,
05:36I saw Seraphina curled up in Lysander's arms.
05:40Alara, you see?
05:42Lysander has only ever liked me.
05:44You're the one who forcibly stole him from my side all these years.
05:48She never mentioned that she had been the one to steal the golden egg first.
05:53I died.
05:54My soul floated above the order.
05:56I watched them get engaged.
05:58I watched Lysander tell her in bed.
06:01Compared to Alara,
06:03you're more beautiful.
06:05Seraphina smiled foolishly.
06:07She didn't know.
06:09Lysander never understood the meaning of contentment.
06:12But after my rebirth,
06:14Seraphina had preemptively stolen the silver serpent's egg.
06:17She had been reborn too.
06:20I smiled.
06:22She thought she had seized love and a future.
06:25But she didn't know.
06:26This time, there would be no need to help suppress Lysander.
06:30Know my blood.
06:32Know me as a scapegoat.
06:33What will you use to feed him?
06:38I carried that dull gray golden egg back to my tower.
06:42I casually placed it on the stone table.
06:45The most valuable thing in this entire tower was probably myself.
06:50Seraphina's family had treasures.
06:51I had none.
06:53All I had was a drop of blood squeezed from my fingertip.
06:57I let the blood drop onto the eggshell.
06:59The shell rippled in circles.
07:01Then quickly stilled.
07:04I got up and went to the library.
07:06Turning to that particular page.
07:09Golden Radiance eggs contain innate intelligence.
07:13Such eggs do not rely on external forces for hatching.
07:16Depending solely on their own will to break free.
07:20Thus, the key to hatching lies in bringing them joy.
07:23I looked at the dull, gray egg in my arms.
07:27The egg didn't move.
07:31I tried everything.
07:33Sunbathing.
07:34Music.
07:35Gossip from around the order.
07:37Finally, I discovered.
07:39It loved hearing stories most.
07:41Specifically, stories told by me.
07:44I was the worst at coaxing children.
07:46The stories I told would make even the youngest apprentices in the order cry.
07:51But this egg loved them.
07:52I sat at the stone table, holding it in my arms.
07:56Once upon a time, there was a little trout.
08:00It got lost and couldn't find its mother.
08:03The eggshell swayed, like it was listening.
08:06I smiled.
08:07I didn't know what creature was growing inside this egg.
08:10But I knew that it and I were slowly growing closer.
08:14Every night I told it another story.
08:17About warriors.
08:18About dragons.
08:20About stars that fell from the sky because they were lonely.
08:23The egg listened.
08:25Sometimes it swayed gently.
08:27Sometimes it grew warm against my palm.
08:30Six months passed like this.
08:34At dawn on the 180th day, the entire Silverblade Order's towers shook violently.
08:41Storm clouds gathered across thousands of miles in the sky.
08:44I set down my storybook.
08:46Lysander was about to emerge.
08:49On the training grounds.
08:51Seraphina stood in the center.
08:53One after another, artifacts covered in runes were hurled into the sky.
08:58Golden magic circles exploded among the clouds.
09:00Each artifact was priceless.
09:03Yet she threw them away like garbage.
09:05Without a second thought.
09:07Soon the clouds dispersed.
09:09A snow white serpent coiled around her arm.
09:13Nine tails dangled down.
09:15Gleaming coldly.
09:16It raised its head.
09:18Red eyes scanning the entire field.
09:21Elders from the Azure Scale Society rushed over overnight.
09:24Falling to their knees before Seraphina.
09:27Truly the nine coiled silver serpent dragon.
09:31Lord Vale.
09:32Our dew scale clan will serve you for generations.
09:36Seraphina held the serpent tightly.
09:38The triumph in her eyes was impossible to hide.
09:41She walked slowly toward me.
09:44Alara.
09:45It's been half a year.
09:49She smiled.
09:51She smiled.
09:51Your egg.
09:52Any progress?
09:56I lowered my head.
09:58It was true something.
09:59Why?
10:00Seraphina smiled even sweeter.
10:02Reaching out to pull me close.
10:04I shook her off.
10:06Seraphina stepped back.
10:08I'm so sorry.
10:10I shouldn't have brought Lysander out.
10:12I didn't know your egg hadn't yet.
10:14I really didn't mean it.
10:16Her eyes going red.
10:17Lara can't even hatch a single egg.
10:20And she still dares to be cheap?
10:22Step aside for Seraphina!
10:24The training ground erupted.
10:26I raised my head and scanned the crowd.
10:28The loudest voice belonged to that fat apprentice Barney.
10:32I had scolded him several times for slacking off.
10:35He'd held a grudge ever since.
10:37Those joining in the jeering were all the same people who had flattered me in my previous life.
10:42I almost laughed.
10:44Strength was all that mattered here.
10:46People were predictable.
10:47The title of chief had always been a burden anyway.
10:51Better to be rid of it.
10:53Seraphina made a show of declining.
10:55I'm not capable of such responsibility.
10:58Alara is the most suitable.
11:00Barney immediately chimed in.
11:04Seraphina is too modest!
11:06Alara doesn't deserve that position at all!
11:09I turned and walked away.
11:11Before leaving, I glanced back at Seraphina.
11:20Lysenar hasn't experienced the heavenly punishment lightning.
11:26Seraphina, take care of yourself.
11:31Back in my tower, I poked the dull gray egg on the stone table.
11:35You?
11:37When will you finally come out?
11:40The egg swayed.
11:41I rubbed my eyes.
11:43Beneath that gray, cloudy shell, I could actually see a faint trace of golden red.
11:48It was angry.
11:50I couldn't help laughing.
11:52All right, all right.
11:53My mistake.
11:55I'll tell you a story.
11:56I sat down.
11:58Holding it in my arms.
11:59I told it about Lysander's emergence.
12:02About Seraphina's performance.
12:04About those apprentices who mocked me.
12:07Halfway through the story, the egg shell suddenly grew hot.
12:10A warm current flowed from inside the egg.
12:13Traveling up my wrist and into my magic core.
12:16I flinched.
12:18It was a power I had never felt before.
12:20Blazing.
12:21Pure.
12:22I looked at it.
12:24You're helping me?
12:26The egg fell silent again, but I knew it understood.
12:30From that moment on, I trained my magical power every day.
12:34Not to compete for first place.
12:36Not to keep my position as chief.
12:38But so that, the next time Lysander bared his fangs, I could personally sever them.
12:46Six months later, Master Aldrich's communication crystal lit up.
12:51The Misty Tower Sanctuary had opened.
12:53The Misty Tower Sanctuary was the most dangerous ancient ruin in all the northern territories.
12:59It opened once every 50 years.
13:02Inside lay ancient treasures and lost magic.
13:05And the Heart of Life extension.
13:07In my previous life, I had died on the night we fought for the Heart of Life extension.
13:12When I arrived at the gathering point, the entire team was waiting for me.
13:17Seraphina stood in the center of the crowd.
13:20Beside her stood a man.
13:21Dressed in snow white robes, silver hair flowing loose.
13:25His features were so enchanting they seemed inhuman.
13:29Lysander had taken human form.
13:31The moment he saw me, his eyes lit up.
13:34Seraphina spoke with acidic sarcasm.
13:37Alara really is a busy person.
13:40I couldn't be bothered with her.
13:42I bowed to the Elder.
13:45Apologies for being late.
13:46The Elder waved his hand.
13:47It's not time yet.
13:49Seraphina's expression changed.
13:51She hooked her arm through Lysander's, deliberately raising her voice.
13:55Alara hasn't met him yet, right?
13:57This is Lysamar.
13:58The continent's one and only nine-coiled silver serpent dragon.
14:02He took human form in just three months.
14:05Lysander.
14:07My heart jolted.
14:08Wasn't that the name I had given him in my previous life?
14:11I looked toward Lysander.
14:13His eyes had been fixed on me the entire time.
14:16He walked toward me slowly.
14:18His face deathly pale.
14:21Alara, you...
14:22His voice cracked.
14:24Like he was choking back something desperate.
14:26Something he'd been holding onto across two lifetimes.
14:29The air around us grew heavy.
14:32Seraphina's grip on his arm tightened.
14:34Her smile didn't reach her eyes.
14:36I stood perfectly still.
14:38Waiting for what came next.
14:42Before he could finish,
14:44Seraphina cut him off sharply.
14:46Oh right, Alara.
14:47Where's your egg?
14:48Her voice was too bright.
14:50Too deliberate.
14:52Like she was throwing sand into gears that were already grinding.
14:56Lysander's face instantly went white.
14:58The color drained from his lips.
15:00He shook off Seraphina's arm like it burned him.
15:03Rushed toward me.
15:04Grabbing my shoulders with both hands.
15:06His fingers dug into my skin.
15:08Your egg?
15:10Alara?
15:11You have another egg?
15:12His golden eyes were wild.
15:15Desperate.
15:16Like a drowning man who'd finally spotted land.
15:18Behind us, the entire team fell silent.
15:22Over a hundred pairs of eyes fixed on the three of us.
15:26Seraphina's composure cracked.
15:28Her perfect mask slipped for one fraction of a second.
15:31I saw it.
15:33Fear.
15:33She was afraid.
15:35She was afraid.
15:35Afraid of what Lysander's reaction meant.
15:38Afraid of what I might say next.
15:40I looked at Lysander.
15:41At the man who had killed me in my previous life.
15:44Who now stood before me with the face of a stranger.
15:47And the eyes of someone who remembered everything.
15:52Silence stretched between us.
15:54Thick enough to cut with a knife.
15:56Seraphina froze in place.
15:58Watching this farce unfold.
16:00Her hands were clenched at her sides.
16:02I suddenly laughed aloud.
16:04The sound echoed across the gathering point.
16:07Cold.
16:08Clear.
16:09Unmistakable.
16:10Lysander had been reborn too.
16:13Of course he had been.
16:14How could the gods be so cruel?
16:17Giving both of us a second chance.
16:20I spoke unhurriedly.
16:21Yes, Lysian.
16:23There were two eggs originally.
16:25She chose you.
16:28And I got the other one.
16:30His face went completely white.
16:32All the blood drained away.
16:34He reached for my hand.
16:36Trembling.
16:37I shook him off.
16:38Stepping back.
16:39I looked at him.
16:41Calm.
16:42Measured.
16:42Final.
16:45Your master is over there.
16:47He spun around to look at Seraphina.
16:50Seraphina's face had already turned green.
16:52Her lips parted.
16:54No sound came out.
16:56Lysadar.
16:57What were you just doing?
16:59My voice was light.
17:00Almost casual.
17:02Like I was commenting on the weather.
17:04But everyone heard the steel underneath.
17:06I had no interest in watching their melodrama.
17:09I turned and walked toward the airship.
17:11My steps were steady.
17:13My back straight.
17:15Behind me.
17:16I heard Seraphina's voice crack.
17:18And Lysander's broken whisper.
17:20Good.
17:21Let them choke on it.
17:25I walked into the airship's cabin.
17:27Closed the door behind me.
17:29The noise of the crowd faded.
17:31Finally.
17:32Quiet.
17:35I took the egg from inside my coat.
17:37It was warm against my fingers.
17:41I lay down on the narrow bunk.
17:42The egg seemed to sense my mood.
17:45It actually floated up.
17:48Nuzzling my cheek.
17:50Then my hand.
17:51The swaying motion made me dizzy.
17:53So I pressed it against my chest.
17:58Little egg.
18:02Let me tell you another story.
18:07In my previous life.
18:09When I brought Lysana to the Misty Tower Sanctuary.
18:12He looked at me the same way.
18:14The first day he took human form he told me.
18:17Alara.
18:18Let's form a magical resonance pact.
18:21I refused.
18:23Once.
18:25Twice.
18:27Three times.
18:31He hated me.
18:33Hated me enough that the moment I obtained the Heart of Life extension.
18:39He pushed me into the mouth of a Frostbane tiger.
18:43Ah!
18:48The eggshell began to burn hot.
18:56Later he cried and apologized to me.
18:59Said he was too nervous.
19:01Said it wasn't intentional.
19:03Said he was just trying to hold Serafina.
19:06I believed him.
19:08I really believed him.
19:10The eggshell suddenly became scalding.
19:12A violent current burst from inside.
19:15Like anger.
19:16Like heartbreak.
19:18Like something ancient feeling moved for the first time.
19:21I held it tight.
19:23Tears fell onto the shell.
19:24Dropping one by one.
19:26Sinking into the gray surface.
19:29Little egg.
19:32This lifetime I'll never trust anyone again.
19:36The eggshell shivered.
19:38It pressed closer against my palm.
19:40Warm.
19:41Steady.
19:42Alive.
19:43The gates of the Misty Tower Sanctuary opened.
19:46In my previous life,
19:48Lysander and I had ventured into the deepest depths
19:51and obtained the Heart of Life extension.
19:54This lifetime.
19:55I had no interest in that pearl anymore.
19:58I sat alone in a cave deep within the sanctuary.
20:01Roasting a fish over a crackling fire.
20:04Waiting.
20:05Not for the pearl.
20:06For someone to personally deliver it to me.
20:11Before long, Lysander found me.
20:14His snow white robes were burned and blackened.
20:17His silver hair was tangled and matted.
20:19Ash covered his pale face.
20:21He looked like he'd crawled through hell to get here.
20:24He approached slowly.
20:26Holding out a blood-stained pearl with both hands.
20:32Hilara.
20:33His voice trembled.
20:35The Heart of Life extension.
20:38I brought it back for you.
20:40I looked at that pearl.
20:41It gleamed faintly in the firelight.
20:44Such a pity.
20:45Some things.
20:46Once you've missed them,
20:48you never want them again.
20:49The Heart of Life extension was like that.
20:52Lysander was the same.
20:54I laughed coldly.
20:57Did you use the same tricks you used on me in our previous life to deceive Serafina?
21:02His hands began to shake.
21:04The pearl wobbled between his fingers.
21:09Let me guess.
21:09I spoke slowly.
21:11Enunciating each word.
21:13Pushed her out to distract the Frostfail tiger so you could escape.
21:17When she woke up,
21:19you cried and told her you panicked and didn't mean it.
21:23Then you pretended.
21:26Then you pretended to be pitiful.
21:29Saying you didn't know where the Heart of Life extension went.
21:32What?
21:32His face was white as death.
21:35Am I right, Lysander?
21:36I curved my lips.
21:41Yes, Lysander.
21:43I died once and came back to life.
21:45I don't want you anymore.
21:48Tears filled his eyes.
21:50Spilling over.
21:51Tracking down his ash-streaked face.
21:54Lysander threw himself at my feet.
21:57Wrapping his arms around my knees.
22:01Elara.
22:02Give me one more chance.
22:07Just one.
22:08Looking at his pathetic state.
22:10A wave of satisfaction surged through me.
22:13This was the person who had pushed me into the tiger's mouth in my previous life.
22:18This was the person who had drained all my blood in my previous life.
22:22This was the person who had scattered my ashes into shadows abyss in my previous life.
22:27I lifted my foot.
22:28And kicked him away.
22:30Hard.
22:31He skidded across the cave floor.
22:33Lysander.
22:34I gave you a chance once.
22:36You didn't want it.
22:38Lysander stood up.
22:40His eyes turned red.
22:42Not with tears.
22:43With something darker.
22:45Elara, you can't do this.
22:48He kept coming closer.
22:49Step by step.
22:52You were so good to me before.
22:55You did so much for me!
22:57How could you not want me anymore?!
22:59How could you not want me anymore?!
23:02I drew my sword.
23:04The blade sang free of its sheath.
23:06The tip pointed at his chest.
23:08He acted as if he couldn't see it.
23:10Walking step by step onto the blade.
23:13Blood flowed down the steel.
23:15Yet he showed no reaction.
23:17Elara, look at me.
23:19His voice became soft.
23:21His voice became soft.
23:23Clinging.
23:24Honeyed.
23:25You've always loved me.
23:28We promised to be together forever.
23:30Enchantment magic.
23:32My mind went blank for a moment.
23:35This was the nine-coiled silver serpent dragon's innate ability.
23:39Mind manipulation.
23:40In my previous life, I had resisted it countless times.
23:44But this lifetime was different.
23:47He hadn't undergone the heavenly punishment lightning's cleansing.
23:50His enchantment magic was more than twice as strong as in my previous life.
23:55My grip on the sword began to weaken.
23:57My arm dropped an inch.
23:59Two inches.
24:02I bit through my lower lip.
24:04The sharp pain cleared my mind for an instant.
24:07Copper taste flooded my mouth.
24:09But the illusion grew deeper.
24:11Like vines wrapping around my thoughts.
24:13My body moved toward him.
24:16Beyond my control.
24:17My feet carried me forward.
24:19Just as I was about to fall into his arms.
24:22Boom.
24:23A golden red flame burst from outside the cave.
24:26It swept me off my feet.
24:28And caught me securely in a blazing embrace.
24:31I flinched.
24:32The heat was intense, but it didn't burn.
24:34It felt... safe.
24:37I looked up.
24:38I saw a face both strange and familiar.
24:41Golden red hair.
24:43Like molten sunlight.
24:44Golden eyes.
24:46Burning with ancient fire.
24:48His features carried the divine authority that only the old god clans possessed.
24:52He looked down at me.
24:54His voice soft.
24:55Little one.
24:59Why didn't you tell me a story today?
25:03Did the little trout find its mother?
25:05I stared for a full three seconds.
25:07My brain refused to process.
25:11You...
25:11Your little egg?
25:13He raised an eyebrow, looking disgusted.
25:16Don't call me little egg.
25:18My name is Pyraxis.
25:20That way don't.
25:22Ancient solar true dragon, Pyraxis.
25:26I'm your husband.
25:29I hadn't even processed the word husband yet.
25:32A hoarse voice cut in behind me.
25:35It's him again.
25:37Lysander crawled up from the ground.
25:39The wound on his chest was still bleeding.
25:41He stared at Pyraxis with deadly intensity.
25:46Elara! Who is he?
25:48His face twitched.
25:49The recognition hit him like a physical blow.
25:52It was him! In the previous life!
25:55He killed me to avenge you!
25:57Now it's him again!
25:58His pupils shrank.
26:00His eyes went sharp.
26:01Like something clicked into place.
26:03So you were already involved with him!
26:05He laughed maniacally.
26:08No wonder!
26:09No wonder he talked about eliminating karma!
26:13He crawled toward me on his knees, trying to grab my skirt.
26:19Elara!
26:20Elara!
26:21Elara!
26:22We're the same kind of people!
26:25You betrayed Lysander too, didn't you?
26:27I can pretend nothing happened.
26:31Let's call it even.
26:33Let's be like we used to be, okay?
26:35I looked at this wretched man.
26:38I had expected to feel anger.
26:40But my heart felt nothing at all.
26:42Nothing.
26:43He was a stranger.
26:45A chapter I had already closed.
26:48Lysander.
26:49Don't measure others by your own filthy heart.
26:52I spoke coolly.
26:53Magic gathered at my sword tip.
26:55Golden red flames spread along the blaze.
26:58The sword threw dragon fire.
27:00I swung the sword.
27:04This strike is for pushing me into the frost-tailed tiger's mouth.
27:08The blade pushed through his shoulder.
27:10Blood sprayed out.
27:11This strike is for draining all my blood.
27:16The second sword stabbed into his chest.
27:19Lysander let out a piercing scream.
27:21I stepped back, raised my sword.
27:24This strike is for being divine bloodline, yet repaying kindness with cruelty.
27:30The third sword penetrated his body, pinning him to the rock wall.
27:35Nine coiled silver serpent dragons had amazing self-healing abilities.
27:39He wouldn't die.
27:41But these three wounds would take him a thousand years to heal.
27:45Death would be too easy.
27:47There was still a grand show ahead.
27:49Waiting for him to play his part.
27:51I sheathed my sword.
27:53Took Pyraxi's hand.
27:55Walking out of the cave without looking back.
27:57Before leaving, I left one final statement.
28:01Lysander.
28:02From this day forward we have nothing to do with each other.
28:06Only after leaving the cave did I belatedly realize.
28:09I was holding a strange man's hand.
28:11A hand with distinct knuckles that was burning hot.
28:14I instinctively tried to pull away, but he clasped my hand in return.
28:19Little one was so cool just now!
28:21Who... who's your little one?
28:24Pyraxi's voice rang out excitedly from behind me.
28:26How can you be like this?
28:28Just two days ago you were still sleeping while holding me.
28:32You get out of bed and forget all about me?
28:34My head buzzed.
28:36I was perfectly fine on my own.
28:38When did I ever sleep holding a grown man?
28:41Wait.
28:42I suddenly realized.
28:43You mean... when you were in the egg?
28:47Yes.
28:48He nodded.
28:49Don't call me Little Egg. My name is Pyraxis.
28:55I looked at him nervously.
28:57Logically, I should be your hatcher.
28:59Why do you say I'm your wife?
29:02Because we solar true dragons choose their mates by hatching them personally.
29:07Since you hatched me, you're my wife.
29:10Pyraxis said it like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
29:14I didn't know whether to laugh or scream.
29:16He must have noticed my hesitation.
29:19Pyraxis turned me around to face him.
29:21His golden eyes grew serious.
29:23It's too late to back out now.
29:25I've already marked you.
29:29Anywhere you go in this world, you can't escape.
29:32I blinked.
29:33A mark?
29:34He said nothing.
29:36Taking my hand...
29:37Close your eyes.
29:39Channel the power from the deepest part of your magic core.
29:42I followed his instructions as if possessed.
29:45Power surged from deep inside my magic core.
29:48It flowed along my arm to my fingertips.
29:50I opened my eyes.
29:52Released a blast of magic from the distant forest.
29:55Boom.
29:56The entire forest burst into flames in an instant.
30:00Turning to ash.
30:01Only the scorching heat lingered in the air.
30:04I stared at my hand in disbelief.
30:07Pyraxis smiled.
30:08My little one is amazing.
30:10The flame just now...
30:12That was the mark you mentioned?
30:14He nodded.
30:14Ordinary people can't combine their magic with true dragon fire to this extent.
30:19When I was in the egg...
30:20My abilities were weak.
30:22I could only let your magic absorb a tryst of solar dragon engines.
30:27Everything else was your own training.
30:29You're the most diligent human I've ever seen.
30:32I bit my lip.
30:34Looked at him steadily.
30:37Without Pyraxis, my revenge against Lysander would never have been this simple.
30:45After leaving the Misty Tower Sanctuary, the atmosphere was oppressively heavy.
30:51The leading elder saw the strange man beside me and paused.
30:55Who is this?
30:56I bowed.
30:58Pyraxis.
30:59A dragon egg I happened to hatch in the Sanctuary.
31:01The elder stroked his beard.
31:03Asked no further questions.
31:05What happened?
31:06I took the opportunity to ask what had happened.
31:10He sighed.
31:11This expedition to the Misty Tower Sanctuary...
31:14The Order lost too many Apprentice.
31:18Of this team of over a hundred, more than fifty Apprentice's life tokens shattered.
31:25Initially, he suspected something had gone wrong in the Sanctuary.
31:28But other Order's casualties were within normal ranges.
31:32When we return to the Order, how will I explain this to the Commander?
31:36I was silent for a moment.
31:39Elder...
31:39Could I see the shattered life tokens?
31:41He handed them over.
31:43I went through each one.
31:44My stomach dropped.
31:46All the deceased had been part of the group that usually surrounded Serafina.
31:51Including that fat Apprentice, Barney.
31:53Who had demanded I step down from the Chief position that day.
31:56At this time in my previous life.
31:59Serafina's several good brothers had suddenly stopped supporting her.
32:03I hadn't understood why then.
32:06Now I understood.
32:07How had these Apprentices died in this lifetime?
32:11I thought of Lysander.
32:12Whom I had stabbed three times.
32:14I thought of the subtle, abnormal aura around Serafina.
32:18That aura.
32:20Dark.
32:21Viscous.
32:22Like something flowing through her blood.
32:24If my guess was correct, she had already fallen to the shadows.
32:28And Lysander knew it.
32:30The sins of these two were piling up.
32:34When we returned to the Order, Master Aldric personally investigated.
32:38But ultimately came up empty handed.
32:41Master Aldric summoned me to the main hall.
32:44When I entered, Serafina and Lysander were already there.
32:48At first glance, I noticed.
32:50Lysander, who had just been stabbed three times by me, should have been gravely injured.
32:56Stood elegantly and calmly in the Great Hall.
32:59Completely unharmed.
33:01The self-healing ability of the nine-coiled silver serpent dragon was truly astonishing.
33:07And Serafina, whom I hadn't seen in a while.
33:10Her magic core was shattered.
33:12She had become a complete mortal.
33:14The Master's sword was pointed at Lysander's chest.
33:18Serafina stood firmly in front of him.
33:20Master, Lysander is innocent!
33:24Innocent?
33:25The Master's voice was ice cold.
33:28Tell me.
33:29Your magic core is shattered like this.
33:33Yet he only suffered surface wounds.
33:35You call this innocent?
33:38Serafina Vale.
33:39He's your blood-packed Phanalic.
33:41When facing danger, you should share the burden together.
33:45Not have you bear all the disasters alone.
33:49He didn't!
33:51Seeing me enter, she grabbed onto me like a lifeline.
33:56Master!
33:57It's all Alara's fault!
33:59My magic core shattered because of Alara!
34:02It's all her fault!
34:05The Master looked toward me.
34:08Alara, tell me.
34:10What really happened?
34:13I bowed respectfully.
34:15Master.
34:17In the Sanctuary, I was focused solely on honing my own power.
34:21What's wrong with that?
34:23Serafina's face twisted.
34:24When I was in danger, why didn't you come save me?
34:28Serafina's shrill voice echoed through the Great Hall.
34:30You should have shielded me from disaster!
34:34Serafina Vale!
34:35No!
34:36The Master shouted.
34:38Master struck her face with a resounding slap.
34:41The crisp sound echoed throughout the hall.
34:44Serafina covered her face, staring at him in disbelief.
34:48Master?
34:50You hit me?
34:51You hit me for this waste?!
34:53Serafina!
34:54She is your companion!
34:56She is not!
34:59She's inferior to me in every way!
35:04Why?!
35:05She seemed to suddenly think of something.
35:07She turned and clung tightly to Lysander.
35:09Lysander!
35:10Tell me!
35:11Who's better?
35:12Me or Alara?
35:14Tell me!
35:16Sometime during this, tears had streamed down her face.
35:20Lysander glanced at her, then mercilessly pushed her away.
35:23What do you think you are?
35:25His voice was ice cold.
35:28Do you even deserve to be compared to Alara?
35:31Hitting a stone pillar, blood came up.
35:34Alara, please look at me.
35:37I don't like her.
35:38I don't like her at all.
35:40Take me away, please.
35:41Serafina lunged forward to push me.
35:44Lysander blocked her with one arm.
35:45She crashed into the steps, choking on blood.
35:49Alara!
35:50It's all you!
35:51Why did you come to steal Lysand?
35:54You just can't stand that he likes me, can you?!
35:57Serafana.
35:58I glanced at her coolly.
35:59No one covets your Lysander.
36:02After all, not everyone treasures trash.
36:08Back in my tower from the Great Hall, for once.
36:12I didn't train my magic.
36:14Pyraxes appeared from somewhere behind me.
36:16The emotions I had suppressed too long, finally burst like a dam.
36:20Tears flowed uncontrollably, soaking his shirt front.
36:23He said nothing, just silently embraced me, buried in his arms.
36:28Pyraxes.
36:29I spoke through my sobs.
36:30Why is this world so unfair?
36:32Some people are born to be cherished by everyone, yet they're still not satisfied.
36:36They even want to steal away the few precious things others have.
36:39At this time in my previous life, the Master had also summoned me.
36:43Only that time, I was the one injured.
36:46My magic core had developed cracks that could never be healed.
36:50I came back only to be scolded by the Master.
36:53Seraphina had already tearfully complained to the Master, painting everything as my being overly competitive, wanting to monopolize the heart
37:01of life extension.
37:02I looked hopefully toward Lysander.
37:04He averted his eyes, said with tears.
37:07Valera, wrong is wrong. Just admit it.
37:11The hope drained out of my eyes. All I could manage was one sentence.
37:15It was my fault. I accept whatever punishment the Master deems fit.
37:20But why in this lifetime? Even when the Master was disappointed, he would set aside his dignity to ask me
37:27to spare her?
37:29Hyraxes listened quietly to everything I said.
37:37Alara.
37:40You're different from her.
37:45She was born pampered and lazy. Can only rely on others' protection.
37:49But you're different.
37:50His gaze was more serious than ever before.
37:53Alara.
37:55You're destined to become a god.
37:59My eyes slowly lit up.
38:01Yes. I was destined to become a god.
38:05Gods possess absolute power.
38:07They can protect all beings.
38:09They can protect those they love.
38:11Relying on others ultimately only makes one a dependent.
38:14Only by relying on yourself can you truly obtain your own life.
38:19My stagnant magic core suddenly loosened.
38:22A light emerged from its depths.
38:24Warm. Bright. Growing stronger.
38:27I had found my path.
38:30I happily hugged Paraxes.
38:33Then mercilessly pushed him out of the tower and shut the door.
38:37Leaving Paraxes alone.
38:38I'm going into the training chamber.
38:42Three years of seclusion.
38:44Bewildered in the wind.
38:48Three years passed.
38:50When I pushed open the training chamber door.
38:53Sunlight stabbed my eyes so I couldn't open them.
38:56A man stood outside the door.
38:59Pyraxes.
39:00His golden eyes stared at me intensely.
39:03Not speaking. Not moving.
39:04Like a statue carved from sunlight.
39:08Then he walked toward me.
39:10I didn't see it coming.
39:11He had already swept me into his arms.
39:14Three years.
39:15His voice was frightfully hoarse.
39:17Do you know how I spent these three years?
39:19I was stunned.
39:21Pyraxes.
39:21He didn't let me finish.
39:23He lowered his head and kissed me directly.
39:26Not gentle.
39:27He bit down.
39:29Carrying three years of suppressed possessiveness.
39:32He pressed me against the chamber door.
39:34I couldn't breathe.
39:36After a long while, he finally released me.
39:39His golden eyes were wet.
39:43Alara.
39:44If you dare lock me outside for three years again.
39:49I'll bite through that door.
39:51I stared at him stupidly.
39:53Suddenly realizing.
39:55This man.
39:56Had guarded my door for three years without leaving.
39:59A communication crystal lit up at that moment.
40:02From an apprentice I had been on good terms with.
40:07Senior Alara.
40:08Did you forget about the Order's grand ceremony?
40:10Come to the training grounds quickly.
40:12We're overwhelmed here.
40:14The Order's grand ceremony happened once every century.
40:18This year marked the 5000th anniversary of the Silverblade Order's founding.
40:23I used this as an excuse to escape from Pyraxes.
40:29But the moment I reached the training grounds.
40:31Serafina and Lysander stood right there.
40:34After not seeing her for so long.
40:37Serafina had regained her former splendor.
40:39But those with discerning eyes could tell.
40:42What she wore now was worlds apart from before.
40:45Ever since her magic core shattered.
40:48Serafina had lost all her advantages.
40:50But after Lysander took human form.
40:53Serafina ultimately couldn't resist the temptation.
40:56She formed a magical resonance pact with him.
40:58I ignored the chattering Lysander beside me.
41:01Turning to leave.
41:02In my heart.
41:03I contacted Pyraxes through secret methods.
41:07Telling him of my discovery.
41:08After ending the communication.
41:11I smiled.
41:12This grand show depended entirely on Serafina to open it.
41:17The ceremony began.
41:19As night fell.
41:20All apprentices and elders gradually arrived.
41:23I ate the grilled trout that Pyraxes had deboned for me.
41:26Elara.
41:28I was wrong to suspect you before.
41:31Lysander really isn't a good man after all.
41:34I'm sorry Elara.
41:36Can you forgive me?
41:38Exchanging a glance with Pyraxes.
41:40I reached out to take the wine cup.
41:42Just at that critical moment.
41:45A flash of magic struck down.
41:47Shattering the cup in her hand.
41:49The wine spilled on the ground.
41:51A thick wave of shadow corruption rose from the ground.
41:55I turned around.
41:56It was Lysander.
41:58His face was covered in sweat.
42:00His white shirt stained with blood.
42:02That wine.
42:03It's corrupted with shadows.
42:05His shout drew the attention of everyone on the training grounds.
42:08Commotion exploded instantly.
42:10But before they could react.
42:12Serafina burst into wild laughter.
42:17The ribbon binding Serafina's hair snapped from the violent shadow energy.
42:22Serafina's silver hair fell loose.
42:24Her eyes turned a piercing blood red.
42:27A crimson mark bloomed on her forehead.
42:30The sign of falling to shadow corruption.
42:34Apprentices around us retreated in terror.
42:37Someone ran to fetch the elders.
42:39I waved my hand.
42:40Sending pirates back into his own form.
42:46Serafina looked at-
42:47Alara.
42:48Why aren't you surprised?
42:53How can you be so calm?
42:55I looked at her cruelly.
42:57I'm not surprised at all.
42:59After all.
43:00You fell to shadow corruption in the previous life too, didn't you?
43:04She froze.
43:05Her face showed an expression more painful than crying.
43:08In my previous life, no one suspected she had fallen to shadow corruption, including myself.
43:15Only this afternoon, seeing her, I finally understood.
43:19Shadow's abyss was so dangerous.
43:21How could Serafina, who would never risk her own neck, possibly gamble her own life just to harm me?
43:28The only possibility was, she had already fallen to shadow corruption.
43:33So she had no choice but to go to shadow's abyss.
43:36Had no choice but to drain my blood.
43:39Had no choice but to gamble with my life for her chance at purification.
43:44Serafina looked at me, no longer hiding anything.
43:47Alara!
43:48Why do you have to steal my things?
43:50My status in the previous life was...
43:53Lysan's heart in this life!
43:55Why?
43:56Why do all the good things belong to you?
43:59Serafina...
44:01Don't you understand even now?
44:03It's all because you don't know contentment!
44:09Don't know contentment?
44:10She laughed nightly.
44:12Shadow energy gathered around.
44:14I was always meant to be favored by the gods!
44:17Why should I be content?
44:19I summoned my magic to meet her again.
44:22The moment Solar True Dragonfire contacted Shadow Corruption, it burst into flames.
44:28Golden red firelight illuminated Serafina's face.
44:32Solar True Dragonfire?
44:34Serafina paused.
44:37Alara!
44:39Look!
44:40Good things really are all with you!
44:42I had no patience left for her nonsense.
44:45Then let strength do the talking.
44:47I bit my fingertip.
44:49Let blood drop onto my sword.
44:51Instantly.
44:52Golden light burst from the blade.
44:54A golden red True Dragon phantom spiraled up along the sword edge.
44:59Letting out an earth-shaking dragon's roar.
45:01Solar True Dragonfire and Dragonsong intertwined.
45:05Forming a heaven-destroying, earth-shattering pillar of golden red light.
45:09Rushing toward Serafina.
45:12Serafina tried to mobilize Shadow Power to resist.
45:15Only to discover her body was already hollow.
45:18She stared at me in shock and rage.
45:20Alara!
45:22What did you-
45:23What did you-
45:23I smiled.
45:25Serafina.
45:26Did you think forming a magical resonance pat with a white serpent was a good thing?
45:31Your body has long been drained dry.
45:33Right now you're just at the end of your rope.
45:36You've lost.
45:37The golden light burned.
45:40Serafina spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at me unwillingly.
45:43Alara.
45:45So you knew all along.
45:47I looked at her coldly.
45:48Serafina.
45:49The more you gain, the more you often have to pay.
45:52Is that so?
45:54But Alara!
45:57You miscalculated one thing.
46:00I still have a trump card!
46:04As her words fell, Serafina used her last bit of strength to break through the mist.
46:10And lunge at me.
46:12Serafina clutched something in her hand.
46:14A dark aura that lingered endlessly.
46:17My eyes went wide.
46:18It was a shadow core.
46:20The legendary source of shadow corruption.
46:23Once tainted by it, there was only one path.
46:26Complete fall into darkness.
46:29Pyraxes, disguised in his egg form, was jumping around frantically.
46:33I touched my storage pouch to signal him not to move.
46:36While summoning true dragon fire to form a protective barrier.
46:40But just as the shadow core was about to touch me,
46:43it hit someone who suddenly appeared.
46:46My sander blocked in front of me.
46:47The shadow core embedded deeply in his chest.
46:50He turned to look at me.
46:52His eyes full of hope.
46:56This time, I protected you.
47:00Serafina had already gone mad.
47:05Lysander! Lysander!
47:09Why?!
47:10You wanted magical resonance plect.
47:13I gave you everything you asked for!
47:18In the sanctuary, when you were gravely injured and dying, it was me!
47:24I killed nearly 50 order members.
47:28Using their blood as sacrifice to heal your wounds.
47:33Later, when my magic core shattered and I lost everything!
47:38I still never abandoned you!
47:40Lysander!
47:43Lysander!
47:45Why?!
47:46There is no why.
47:48Lysander answered calmly.
47:50Shadow energy slowly wrapped around his body.
47:53There is no why.
47:55His snow white silver hair turned black again.
47:58The wound on his chest actually healed itself.
48:01He walked slowly towards Serafina, reaching out his hand.
48:04He pierced through her body, just as she was about to die.
48:10He took out the heart of life extension from his chest, keeping her alive.
48:14Then once again thrust his hand into her chest, expressionless.
48:20In the previous life,
48:23I was blinded by obsession.
48:29Desperately wanting to become stronger just to touch her.
48:33But in the end,
48:34I personally killed her.
48:37I deserve to atone.
48:44As his words ended,
48:46Lysander lifted the half-dead Serafina,
48:48and knelt before me.
48:51Elara.
48:53I will take her to Shadow's Abyss.
48:55I'll spend the rest of my life atoning to you.
48:58I looked at him for a long moment.
49:00The man who had killed me twice over.
49:02Who had drained my blood.
49:04Who had scattered my ashes.
49:05Now kneeling before me, begging for forgiveness.
49:09I turned my head away.
49:11I said coolly.
49:12Go.
49:13And so the curtain fell on this affair.
49:15When Master Aldrich learned everything,
49:17he said nothing more.
49:19Only he seemed to age another dozen years overnight.
49:22The fifty dead apprentices of the Order could never return.
49:26The commander specially requested priests from the Holy Temple to pray for them.
49:30Everything gradually returned to normal.
49:33For me, who was currently trying to placate Paraxes,
49:37the night I released Paraxes from his egg,
49:40He silently pressed me against the wall.
49:42Holding me tightly.
49:44Refusing to let go.
49:46Just holding me like that.
49:47I struggled several times to no avail.
49:49And had to give up.
49:51Then I felt something wet on my neck.
49:56Elara.
49:57Elara.
49:57Pyraxes choked as he spoke.
49:59You scared me to death, you know.
50:02I'm clearly the best at suppressing shadow corruption.
50:05You knew that.
50:07Watching you nearly get infected by the Shadow Core.
50:09I was terrified.
50:12Afraid you wouldn't want me.
50:15Elara.
50:16Elara.
50:17Could you let me face danger together with you?
50:20The proud ancient dragon was crying.
50:23Tears streaking down his face.
50:25His golden eyes red-rimmed.
50:28His voice breaking.
50:29My heart softened.
50:31I reached up.
50:33Wiped the tears from his face.
50:34Looking at him steadily.
50:37Pyraxes.
50:39I promise you.
50:41It won't happen again.
50:43I hooked my arms around his neck.
50:46And kissed him fiercely.
50:47Not a gentle kiss.
50:49I kissed him back for every single day he had waited outside my door.
50:54Pyraxes went rigid all over.
50:56The next second, Pyraxes took control.
50:59Held me tight.
51:00Pressing me against the wall.
51:02His golden eyes burned like two flames.
51:04He lowered his eyes.
51:06Locked on mine.
51:08Elara.
51:10Marry me.
51:12Tears ran down my face.
51:15Pyraxes.
51:18I do.
51:30The ceremony was simple.
51:32Just the two of us.
51:34Under the starlight that night,
51:35Pyraxes produced a ring forged from a scale of his own true dragon form.
51:40Ancient solar true dragon scale.
51:42It glowed with inner warmth.
51:44Like holding a piece of captured sunlight.
51:46I slipped it on.
51:47It fit perfectly.
51:49Like it had been waiting for my finger all along.
51:52He pulled me close.
51:53His forehead rested against mine.
51:57His forehead rested against mine.
51:57From now on.
51:58Wherever I go.
52:00You go too.
52:02No more locking doors.
52:04No more three year waits.
52:06I'm keeping you.
52:10Forever.
52:11I laughed through my tears.
52:14Who says I wanted to escape.
52:16You're the one who needs watching.
52:19An ancient dragon.
52:21With the temperament of a child.
52:22He pretended to be offended.
52:24What did you say?
52:25My temperament is excellent.
52:27I am majestic.
52:29Divine.
52:30Regal.
52:31You're the one who's childish.
52:34Crying over stories about lost trout.
52:37I poked his chest.
52:39At least the trout found its mother.
52:41Did you?
52:43He went quiet.
52:44Then smiled.
52:45The softest smile I had ever seen on him.
52:48I found something better.
52:52My mate.
52:54My wife.
52:57My everything.
53:04The next morning.
53:06News spread through the entire order.
53:09The ancient solar true dragon had chosen a mate.
53:12Elders from every corner of the northern territories sent congratulations.
53:17Gifts piled up at my tower door.
53:19Seraphina's brothers came personally.
53:21Their expressions complicated.
53:23They had protected Seraphina all their lives.
53:26Blind to what she had become.
53:30Now they knew the truth.
53:32The eldest brother bowed.
53:34Hilara.
53:35We failed you.
53:37We should have seen what she was doing.
53:39Please.
53:41Forgive us.
53:43I helped him up.
53:45The past is past.
53:48What matters is what comes next.
53:51They left with heavy hearts.
53:54Pyraxes watched them go.
53:56Then turned to me.
53:58Do you regret it?
54:01Any of it?
54:02I thought about it.
54:04The death.
54:05The rebirth.
54:07The revenge.
54:08The love.
54:11No.
54:13Not a single thing.
54:17Every step led me here.
54:20To you.
54:22To this.
54:25He kissed my forehead.
54:29Then let's start walking.
54:31Together.
54:33From here on out.
54:35Every step.
54:36Side by side.
54:39Years later.
54:41Years later.
54:42I stood at the peak of the Silverblade Order's highest tower.
54:45Wind rushed past.
54:47Below me.
54:48The northern territories stretched endlessly.
54:51Mountains.
54:52Rivers.
54:52Cities.
54:53All bathed in golden sunlight.
54:56Beside me.
54:57Pyraxes stood in his human form.
54:59His golden hair flowing in the wind.
55:02His hand found mine.
55:03Little one.
55:04He still called me that.
55:06Even after all these years.
55:08Yes.
55:09Do you remember the first story you told me?
55:11I smiled.
55:12Of course.
55:14The little trout who got lost.
55:16Couldn't find its mother.
55:18He squeezed my hand.
55:20It found its way home.
55:22Eventually.
55:23Because someone kept telling its stories.
55:26Kept believing in it.
55:28Kept waiting.
55:29I leaned my head against his shoulder.
55:32And the egg.
55:39The dull grey egg that nobody wanted.
55:42He laughed.
55:43Low and warm.
55:45That egg was never dull.
55:47It was waiting for the right person.
55:50To hatch it.
55:51To tell its stories.
55:53To love it.
55:56The wind carried his voice to me.
55:59Soft.
56:00Certain.
56:01Eternal.
56:03I am that egg, Alara.
56:05And you.
56:06You are my home.
56:08You are my home.
