00:00:09Transmigrate
00:00:10Did I just... Transmigrate?
00:00:15Transmigrate
00:00:16My name is Cynthia Shaw, an agent from the 23rd century.
00:00:20Everyone else transmigrates into a stunning beauty or a powerful noble.
00:00:24Why am I stuck in the body of a fat ugly girl?
00:00:29No, this isn't just obesity. This foul stench can only mean poison.
00:00:38Fat slob, have you ever looked in a mirror? You think you deserve me?
00:00:46I can't believe you turned out this ugly.
00:00:50If someone like you doesn't deserve to live, just die already!
00:00:55I can't believe you.
00:01:01Rest assured, Miss Winona. All these years, just as Mrs. Shaw ordered, I've been dosing her food with poison.
00:01:07She's bloated like a pig now. Hard to even look at. She'll never outshine you or Miss Mona.
00:01:13Well done.
00:01:22Cynthia!
00:01:24Did you break the roof?
00:01:25Eat your food!
00:01:31Is this a meal or pig slop?
00:01:33Eat up!
00:01:33Eat up!
00:01:34You're not leaving until it's finished!
00:01:38Just as I thought.
00:01:40She really was being poisoned.
00:01:42From the original host's memories, she's the eldest daughter of the Shaws, but she was too timid.
00:01:48Marquis Genovia has three daughters. The eldest, Cynthia, was born to his first wife. Mona and Winona, the second and
00:01:54third daughters, were born to her stepmother.
00:01:57Her stepmother feared Cynthia would outshine her daughters, so she banished her to this country estate, then had the maids
00:02:03poison and abuse her.
00:02:07Eat up! What are you staring—?
00:02:17All these years, I respected you as my wet nurse and let things slide, but you've forgotten your place.
00:02:24And who the real mistress here is, you.
00:02:35Today, if you don't finish every dish on this table, I'll twist your head off and shove it down your
00:02:42throat.
00:02:56I'm your wet nurse. How dare you!
00:03:01So what if you're my wet nurse?
00:03:03You—
00:03:06Eat up!
00:03:11Is the food poisoned?
00:03:15That's nonsense!
00:03:18What are you doing?
00:03:19Slow-acting poison, combined with forced overeating. This ugly body of mine is all thanks to you.
00:03:25So you knew!
00:03:27Eat or die. Pick one.
00:03:40Lock her in the backyard. Tell everyone she's caught a contagious disease. And must not be seen.
00:03:47From now on, deliver the meals to her room every day.
00:03:52What? Am I not clear enough?
00:03:56She tried to poison me. If this reaches my grandfather, you'll wish you were never born.
00:04:02Yes, Miss Shaw. Whatever you say.
00:04:04Lucky for me, I know medicine. But a poison this deep won't be easy to cure.
00:04:11The first priority is to burn off all this fat quickly. And force the toxins out.
00:04:20the first priority is to burn out.
00:04:24We are just in trouble when we're respectful of others.
00:04:24Her features aren't bad. Once she slims down, she won't look ugly.
00:04:28He's been poisoned. He won't get far. Kill him.
00:04:36Help me.
00:04:39Experience has taught me to be more careful about helping strangers.
00:04:46Help me, and I'll repay you.
00:04:55Well, for the right price, I can be persuaded.
00:04:59Conveniently, I could use this for herbs.
00:05:08Boil it for two hours. I want a herbal bath.
00:05:10Miss Shaw, you seem a little different.
00:05:13Oh. Different how?
00:05:15You look much thinner, but it's more than that. It's like you're a different person.
00:05:23Miss Shaw, Shirley's face is covered in sores and getting fatter by the hour.
00:05:28She's terrified. She says she'll confess all if you spare her life.
00:05:32She brewed the poison herself. A few days of her own medicine, and she's already lost it.
00:05:36But keep an eye on her. She'll still be useful.
00:05:40This country estate is already this grand.
00:05:46She's hideous. Fatter than my hogs. Marrying her costs extra.
00:05:52Take a look, Cynthia.
00:05:54Even Wade the Butcher doesn't want to marry you.
00:05:56I had to beg just to arrange this match for you.
00:06:00You're old enough to marry now.
00:06:02And Ray has already broken off your engagement.
00:06:04Father thinks you've shamed the family.
00:06:06He's told Mother to marry you off quickly.
00:06:09Wade may not be rich, but his work is honest.
00:06:13Once you marry him...
00:06:16If he's so great, you marry him.
00:06:20Cynthia...
00:06:20How... how dare you hit me?
00:06:23Stop barking at me.
00:06:24Scram.
00:06:24Cynthia, just you wait.
00:06:27I'll have Mother marry you off to some beggar.
00:06:37Scram!
00:06:45Thank you for saving me.
00:06:46I used my finest secret medicine to save you.
00:06:48Suppressing the poison in your body wore me out.
00:06:51A single gold ingot isn't enough.
00:06:53Then what... do you want?
00:06:56You...
00:06:57Tell me your name and where you live, so your family can retrieve you for ten gold ingots.
00:07:03Too many people want me dead.
00:07:04I can't return yet.
00:07:07I need to stall.
00:07:09Miss...
00:07:10I've lost my memory.
00:07:11I can't pay you right now.
00:07:14How about...
00:07:15No credit.
00:07:17Then...
00:07:18I'll take you instead.
00:07:23When I saved you, you had gold on you and fine clothes.
00:07:28It doesn't take much to figure out you're someone important.
00:07:31If you want to recover here, there's a price.
00:07:35She may be plain, but she's clever.
00:07:39Marry me.
00:07:40Help me avoid some unnecessary trouble.
00:07:42You can stay here and heal.
00:07:44Once you're well, you leave, and we go our separate ways.
00:07:47A temporary cover would keep my plans on track.
00:07:56Don't worry.
00:07:58I won't touch you.
00:08:04Fine.
00:08:05I agree.
00:08:11Miss Shaw, your face.
00:08:14Get out.
00:08:15Get out.
00:08:32Everything takes patience.
00:08:38You look...
00:08:39Hmm?
00:08:41Nothing.
00:08:42You seem...
00:08:43different today.
00:08:45Drink up.
00:08:51Cynthia.
00:08:53Father has made his decision.
00:08:55You're marrying Wade today.
00:08:57Tie her up and take her to Wade's place.
00:09:06Need a hand with us?
00:09:11You're injured.
00:09:12Just sit back and watch.
00:09:15Then be careful.
00:09:18I'll give you one chance.
00:09:19Go back and tell the Marquis that I'm already married.
00:09:22This is my husband.
00:09:24Cynthia.
00:09:25Marrying this beggar is nothing compared to Wade.
00:09:28Get her.
00:09:34You...
00:09:35You know martial arts?
00:09:38Impossible.
00:09:39Her technique is unfamiliar.
00:09:42Sharp and lethal.
00:09:43Every strike is a clean killing move.
00:09:46You want Wade that badly?
00:09:48Then you marry him yourself.
00:09:50I hear she's the Shaw's third daughter.
00:09:52Your stepmother's child.
00:09:53If you kill her, won't Marquis Genovia come after you?
00:09:55That's exactly what I want.
00:09:57If you're scared, you can leave early.
00:09:59Just pay me the gold.
00:10:00Money grubber.
00:10:02I'm your husband.
00:10:03Where would I go?
00:10:14Ms. Shaw really delivered.
00:10:17This kind of prize is all I'll ever need.
00:10:24Get off me, you filthy pig.
00:10:27Don't touch me.
00:10:28Help!
00:10:28Father, mother, Mona, help me.
00:10:39What kind of technique is that?
00:10:41A fat-burning workout.
00:10:44Clearly.
00:10:45You've lost a lot of weight.
00:10:47But starving yourself isn't the way.
00:10:48What if your health gives out?
00:10:52Take it away.
00:10:53I can handle it.
00:10:55Your food won't tempt me.
00:10:57Impressive restraint.
00:10:58Then I'll eat.
00:11:01Do you have to eat in front of me?
00:11:11Does looks really matter that much?
00:11:13Everyone loves a pretty face.
00:11:15Don't pretend you evoke lunatic.
00:11:16I prefer personality.
00:11:18Pretty faces are everywhere.
00:11:20Interesting people are rare.
00:11:22Lunatic.
00:11:24Ms. Shaw.
00:11:25The manor.
00:11:26They've sent people here.
00:11:31Ms. Shaw.
00:11:32You cruelly abused Ms. Winona.
00:11:35Lord Shaw has ordered us to bring you back for judgment.
00:11:41It seems Ms. Winona didn't pass our message.
00:11:44Cynthia is now my wife.
00:11:45She belongs with me.
00:11:47My wife isn't yours to judge.
00:11:51Ms. Shaw.
00:11:53Marriage is a serious matter.
00:11:55It follows tradition and your parents' approval.
00:11:58Yet you secretly ran off with some lowly beggar.
00:12:01You're beyond saving.
00:12:02Men, take Ms. Shaw back to the manor.
00:12:06Take Ms. Shaw back to the manor.
00:12:22You...
00:12:23You're a disgrace to this family.
00:12:25Go tell Marquis Genovia and Ruth.
00:12:27I'll return myself.
00:12:29They can wait for me at the manor.
00:12:30If anyone bothers me again,
00:12:32I'll send word to my grandfather
00:12:33and have him deal with it.
00:12:35Your grandfather is old and far off at the border.
00:12:38He can't protect you forever.
00:12:40Once he's dead,
00:12:41let's see if you still act so proud.
00:12:43Want me to go with you?
00:12:44Aren't you here to hide your identity
00:12:46while recover in secret?
00:12:48Don't make promises you can't keep.
00:12:55Your Highness,
00:12:56matters in Aldera are pressing.
00:12:58We must depart now.
00:13:22Miss Shaw,
00:13:23you're beautiful.
00:13:25This was all Shirley's fault.
00:13:27If she hadn't poisoned you,
00:13:29no one would have called you a pig
00:13:30all these years.
00:13:35Miss Shaw,
00:13:36Sir has left.
00:13:37He departed before dawn.
00:13:39He left behind a pouch
00:13:40and a letter.
00:13:51Not bad.
00:13:52Miss Shaw,
00:13:53with your husband gone,
00:13:56the Shaws will surely force you
00:13:58to marry Wade again.
00:14:02Send a fast rider
00:14:03to give my grandfather this letter.
00:14:06If it arrives late,
00:14:07you'll answer for it.
00:14:14Send word to Marquis Genovia Manor.
00:14:17I'm coming home.
00:14:18Tell them to be ready to receive me.
00:14:21Yes, Miss.
00:14:23The real show is about to begin.
00:14:27Mother,
00:14:28Cynthia had me dumped in a shack
00:14:30with someone like Wade.
00:14:32If word gets out,
00:14:33my reputation will be ruined.
00:14:35I've already had Wade silenced.
00:14:38No one will ever find out.
00:14:40Mother,
00:14:41word just came from the country estate.
00:14:44Cynthia is returning
00:14:45and we're to prepare to receive her.
00:14:47The nerve of her.
00:14:49Ordering us to receive her?
00:14:51Mother,
00:14:52if she wants attention,
00:14:54let's invite every noble in the capital.
00:14:56That fat, ugly freak
00:14:58will become a laughing stock.
00:15:00And Winona will get her revenge.
00:15:04Mother,
00:15:05she's hideous.
00:15:06Ray once said,
00:15:07if Cynthia ever came back,
00:15:09he'd break her legs.
00:15:10If we invite all the nobles,
00:15:12Ray will lose his temper.
00:15:14And then...
00:15:18Today is Cynthia's homecoming banquet.
00:15:21Thank you all for coming.
00:15:22Of course,
00:15:23after all these years,
00:15:26we're all curious
00:15:28to see how she has grown.
00:15:30I hear Ray Howard
00:15:32called off the engagement,
00:15:34saying,
00:15:35Miss Cynthia was monstrously ugly.
00:15:38Monstrously ugly?
00:15:39I was hoping to match her
00:15:40with my useless son
00:15:41for a good alliance.
00:15:43She is legitimate,
00:15:44after all.
00:15:45Her grandfather is General Beck,
00:15:46a distinguished name.
00:15:48What a pity.
00:15:49Go check.
00:15:50Why isn't Miss Cynthia here yet?
00:15:54Once Cynthia becomes
00:15:56a laughing stock,
00:15:58Ray will surely choose you instead.
00:16:00You're right, mother.
00:16:02That ugly woman dares to come back?
00:16:04If she mentions the engagement,
00:16:06I'll kill her.
00:16:07Calm down, Ray.
00:16:09She would eventually
00:16:10come home.
00:16:12Indeed.
00:16:13We,
00:16:13and the Howards,
00:16:15do have a marriage agreement.
00:16:17I'd never marry her.
00:16:18If I must follow the agreement,
00:16:20I'd rather marry Mona
00:16:21than that fat slob.
00:16:24Lord Shaw,
00:16:25Mrs. Shaw,
00:16:26Miss Cynthia has arrived.
00:16:28Cynthia,
00:16:29you're about to be ruined.
00:16:55Heavens!
00:16:56Miss Cynthia looks as if
00:16:57she descended from the heavens.
00:16:59Even goddesses
00:17:01can't compare to her.
00:17:04Who said she was ugly?
00:17:05She's a true gem.
00:17:07If Ray doesn't want her,
00:17:09our family will gladly take her.
00:17:12Not so fast.
00:17:13Our family wants her too.
00:17:19You're not Cynthia.
00:17:21Cynthia is supposed to be
00:17:22a fat, hideous freak.
00:17:23Who are you?
00:17:25Impossible.
00:17:27How could you be that big?
00:17:29Miss Cynthia has lost weight.
00:17:31She's beautiful now.
00:17:32Mr. Howard,
00:17:34you let go of someone
00:17:35this beautiful.
00:17:36Don't blame us
00:17:37for stepping in.
00:17:41Enough.
00:17:42Cynthia is my betrothed.
00:17:44We are engaged.
00:17:52Mr. Howard,
00:17:53you handed me
00:17:54the annulment letter.
00:17:55Have you already forgotten?
00:18:04Cynthia,
00:18:05I'm being generous.
00:18:06Today,
00:18:07you can either marry me
00:18:08or remain unmarried
00:18:10as a nun.
00:18:11Is that so?
00:18:15You talk big.
00:18:17To openly seize
00:18:19another man's wife,
00:18:20do you feel no shame?
00:18:22No.
00:18:42Cynthia,
00:18:44why didn't you tell me
00:18:45you were visiting
00:18:45your parents today?
00:18:55Didn't you love me
00:18:56the gold
00:18:57and divorce papers?
00:19:00What divorce papers?
00:19:02I left a note
00:19:04telling you
00:19:04to wait three days.
00:19:14Not bad.
00:19:19She actually got married.
00:19:26Cynthia,
00:19:28which family
00:19:29is your husband from?
00:19:30He's a striking man.
00:19:32A fine match for you.
00:19:33He has the bearing
00:19:35of nobility.
00:19:35He looks familiar.
00:19:36Where have I seen him before?
00:19:38Is he...
00:19:42Could he be a prince?
00:19:46Don't be fooled
00:19:47by his looks.
00:19:48He's just a beggar.
00:19:50Cynthia took him in
00:19:51and kept him.
00:19:52A beggar?
00:19:54He doesn't look like one at all.
00:19:58Are you sure?
00:20:00Mother,
00:20:02I've seen him before.
00:20:04When Cynthia
00:20:05was at the country estate
00:20:07with him,
00:20:07I had someone look into him.
00:20:10He's just a beggar
00:20:11who nearly starved to death.
00:20:17Cynthia,
00:20:18you couldn't possibly
00:20:19still be bitter
00:20:20about Rey leaving you.
00:20:23So you
00:20:24married
00:20:25a beggar?
00:20:27Out of spite?
00:20:28Cynthia,
00:20:30you're the woman
00:20:31I discarded.
00:20:32In all of Aldera,
00:20:33who would dare
00:20:34wed you?
00:20:35Who is he?
00:20:37Does he have a death wish?
00:20:46Someone like you
00:20:50is beneath my notice.
00:20:55He said Mr. Howard
00:20:57is beneath his notice.
00:20:59Could he be royalty?
00:21:00Sire,
00:21:00the emperor
00:21:00has three sons.
00:21:01The only one
00:21:02who went to war
00:21:03at such a young age
00:21:03is the third prince,
00:21:04war god Jeremy Malcolm.
00:21:06Is he the third prince?
00:21:07Is it true?
00:21:08Don't take the bluff
00:21:09too far.
00:21:10It'll be hard
00:21:10to back out then.
00:21:11Relax.
00:21:12The third prince
00:21:13stays at the border.
00:21:15Hardly anyone
00:21:15has ever seen him.
00:21:16So you're just
00:21:17pretending.
00:21:18My mother
00:21:19is the empress's
00:21:20sister.
00:21:21The emperor
00:21:22has only three sons.
00:21:23The crown prince
00:21:24is my cousin.
00:21:25The second
00:21:25died young.
00:21:26And as for the third,
00:21:28he guards the border
00:21:29and rarely returns.
00:21:30I think you're
00:21:31using this excuse
00:21:32to pose as a prince.
00:21:34That's a death sentence.
00:21:36Are you certain
00:21:38he's a beggar?
00:21:38I'm certain.
00:21:40Everyone at the estate knows.
00:21:42Cynthia took him
00:21:43in off the streets.
00:21:44What are you waiting for?
00:21:45Seize him at once.
00:21:55Stop!
00:21:57Father,
00:21:58Cynthia came home today
00:21:59and brought a beggar
00:22:00who claims to be
00:22:01the third prince.
00:22:02Father,
00:22:02not only will she
00:22:03disgrace the family,
00:22:04but she will also
00:22:05destroy us entirely.
00:22:07Posing as royalty
00:22:07is a serious crime.
00:22:09Lord Shaw,
00:22:10you once oversaw
00:22:11the border grain shipments
00:22:12and must have seen
00:22:13the third prince.
00:22:14He's impersonating
00:22:14the third prince.
00:22:15How should he be punished?
00:22:17You claim to be
00:22:18the third prince?
00:22:19Do you have proof?
00:22:20We never said
00:22:21he was the third prince.
00:22:22It's all just
00:22:23their guess.
00:22:26Cynthia,
00:22:27done pretending?
00:22:27I know you didn't
00:22:28want to shame the family,
00:22:30so you used this beggar
00:22:31as a cover.
00:22:32But with this many
00:22:33noble houses here,
00:22:34this stunt has only
00:22:35made us a laughing stock.
00:22:37You ingrate!
00:22:38You've gone too far.
00:22:40Daring to impersonate
00:22:41the third prince.
00:22:43Lock her in the woodshed.
00:22:45And kick that beggar out.
00:22:55My grandfather
00:22:57has guarded the border
00:22:58through three reigns.
00:23:00Who dares?
00:23:04Cynthia,
00:23:05you brought a beggar
00:23:07to play prince.
00:23:08If word reaches the emperor,
00:23:11no one will be able
00:23:12to save you.
00:23:13Since you look decent now,
00:23:14I'll give you one chance.
00:23:20Ray,
00:23:21didn't you promise me
00:23:22that once you left her,
00:23:24you'd take me as your wife?
00:23:31Divorce this beggar now.
00:23:33Kneel and beg me,
00:23:34and I'll let you
00:23:35be my concubine.
00:23:49You think you deserve me?
00:23:51A concubine?
00:23:53You don't deserve even that.
00:23:59She's lost her mind.
00:24:01Father,
00:24:01she's lost her mind.
00:24:03That's the son
00:24:03of Marquis Norvale,
00:24:05the empress's nephew.
00:24:08She's insane.
00:24:10What are you waiting for?
00:24:12Stop her.
00:24:21I'd like to see
00:24:23who dares.
00:24:24He really is
00:24:25the third prince?
00:24:26No beggar
00:24:27would dare forge
00:24:28a prince's token.
00:24:29That's a death sentence.
00:24:31Exactly.
00:24:32Father,
00:24:33that beggar
00:24:33is still pretending
00:24:34to be a prince,
00:24:35even forging
00:24:36a prince's seal.
00:24:37He'll drag
00:24:37the whole family
00:24:38down with him.
00:24:39Lord Shaw,
00:24:40every noble house
00:24:41in Aldera is here.
00:24:42She's disgraced
00:24:43the entire family.
00:24:47Cynthia,
00:24:48you came home today
00:24:50just to make trouble
00:24:51for us,
00:24:52didn't you?
00:24:55Father,
00:24:56you only realize
00:24:57that now?
00:24:58Ray!
00:25:00Cynthia,
00:25:01you and this beggar
00:25:02dared to strike me
00:25:03and forged
00:25:04a prince's seal?
00:25:08I'll report this
00:25:09to the emperor
00:25:10at once.
00:25:11Just you wait.
00:25:17Father,
00:25:18what do we do?
00:25:19If the emperor
00:25:20punishes us,
00:25:21our whole family
00:25:22will suffer for her.
00:25:23Lord Shaw,
00:25:24you are Cynthia's father.
00:25:25You have every right
00:25:26to discipline her.
00:25:27Even if General Beck
00:25:28hears of it,
00:25:29he can say nothing.
00:25:30But if you let this slide,
00:25:31she'll bring disaster
00:25:33upon us all.
00:25:34You came prepared.
00:25:36Will this be enough
00:25:37to destroy them?
00:25:40Wiping them out
00:25:41completely
00:25:42may take some time.
00:25:44No rush.
00:25:45We'll take it slow.
00:25:47My foolish daughter
00:25:48has humiliated
00:25:49the entire family.
00:25:49This man dared pose
00:25:51as the third prince
00:25:52and forge
00:25:52a prince's seal.
00:25:53Both are capital crimes.
00:25:55I, Conrad Shaw,
00:25:56hereby disown her
00:25:57from the family.
00:25:58We're done.
00:25:59Lord Shaw
00:25:59is disowning Cynthia?
00:26:01I thought disowning them
00:26:03would take some effort.
00:26:04But it turns out
00:26:06to be easy.
00:26:10Bring me
00:26:11the severance letter.
00:26:13Turns out
00:26:14you had the severance letter
00:26:16ready all along.
00:26:17Looks like
00:26:18the so-called
00:26:19homecoming banquet
00:26:20was really just a setup
00:26:22to sever ties
00:26:23with my consort.
00:26:25You're still impersonating
00:26:26Prince Jeremy?
00:26:27You have a death wish.
00:26:31You came back for this,
00:26:32didn't you?
00:26:34You're smart.
00:26:38Take the severance letter
00:26:39and leave this family.
00:26:41From now on,
00:26:42you're no longer my daughter.
00:26:44Everyone present,
00:26:46please bear witness.
00:26:48I, Cynthia Shaw,
00:26:49no longer have any ties
00:26:50to the Shaw family.
00:26:51But severing ties
00:26:52is one thing.
00:26:53Everything my mother
00:26:54left behind,
00:26:55I will take back in full.
00:26:57Not a single item less.
00:27:05What, what are you talking about?
00:27:07What do you mean?
00:27:10You've been kicked
00:27:11out of the family.
00:27:13You've no right
00:27:13to take anything.
00:27:15Throw her out immediately.
00:27:17What's the rush?
00:27:18The show is just
00:27:19about to begin.
00:27:21All these years,
00:27:22the entire Marquis
00:27:24Genovia Manor
00:27:25was maintained
00:27:25with my mother's expenses.
00:27:28And yet I,
00:27:29her own daughter,
00:27:30was banished
00:27:31to the country estate
00:27:31where I was mistreated.
00:27:33My dear stepmother
00:27:34even bribed my wet nurse
00:27:35and had me poisoned
00:27:36since childhood.
00:27:39We're going to
00:27:41settle every score today.
00:27:46Her previous condition
00:27:47was actually caused
00:27:49by poisoning?
00:27:50What are you talking about?
00:27:51You've lost your mind.
00:27:53Back then,
00:27:54General Beck's wife
00:27:55came from a wealthy
00:27:56merchant empire.
00:27:57When he married off
00:27:57his daughter,
00:27:58he gave a large amount
00:27:59of money to the Shaw family.
00:28:01Without Cynthia's mother,
00:28:02they wouldn't be
00:28:03where they are today.
00:28:04Exactly.
00:28:05They're living off
00:28:06someone else's wealth,
00:28:07yet they mistreating
00:28:08their granddaughter.
00:28:10The Shaws are truly shameless.
00:28:13Cynthia Shaw,
00:28:14when your mother married in,
00:28:16her assets became mine.
00:28:18I've given you the severance letter.
00:28:21Throw her out immediately.
00:28:30Cynthia Shaw,
00:28:31how dare you go against me?
00:28:40It's him!
00:28:42This beggar impersonated
00:28:43Prince Jeremy
00:28:44and even allowed
00:28:45that mad woman
00:28:45to hit me!
00:28:48Each of these crimes
00:28:49is a capital offense.
00:28:52Do you confess
00:28:53to your crimes?
00:28:54Cynthia,
00:28:55your end is near.
00:28:56How convenient!
00:28:58Saves me a trip
00:28:59to the Ministry of Justice.
00:29:01The impersonation
00:29:02was my doing alone.
00:29:03I take full responsibility
00:29:04for all charges.
00:29:06But I had my reasons
00:29:07for doing it.
00:29:09Mr. Cole,
00:29:10don't listen to her.
00:29:11What she did
00:29:12is a capital offense.
00:29:14I've already cut ties
00:29:15with her.
00:29:16Take her away at once.
00:29:18I'm curious to know,
00:29:19if I don't reveal
00:29:21my identity,
00:29:22how is she going
00:29:23to deal with this?
00:29:28Take her away.
00:29:33I have the Imperial
00:29:34Pardon Token
00:29:35bestowed by the late Emperor
00:29:36upon my late grandfather,
00:29:38General Marlon Beck.
00:29:39It even grants immunity
00:29:40to capital offenses.
00:29:41Mr. Cole,
00:29:42do you recognize this?
00:29:44That Pardon Token
00:29:46was from the late Emperor himself.
00:29:48General Beck actually
00:29:49gave it to his granddaughter.
00:29:50General Beck really
00:29:51dotes on Cynthia.
00:29:53That old geezer
00:29:54actually gave Cynthia
00:29:56the Pardon Token?
00:29:58Even with the Pardon Token,
00:30:00impersonating the Prince
00:30:00is a grave offense.
00:30:02She can't escape punishment.
00:30:04The Imperial Pardon Token
00:30:05can indeed spare your life.
00:30:07But impersonating a Prince
00:30:09is a grave matter.
00:30:10You will still need
00:30:11to come with us.
00:30:12After the investigation,
00:30:13I will report to His Majesty
00:30:14for a final decision.
00:30:16Who said I'm impersonating
00:30:17a Prince?
00:30:18Aaron Cole.
00:30:19It's only been a few years,
00:30:21but you can't recognize me already?
00:30:29I'm sorry.
00:30:44He's just a beggar!
00:30:45Prince Jeremy was young
00:30:47when he left Aldera.
00:30:48Marquise Genovia
00:30:48has never seen him before.
00:30:50But I was Prince Jeremy's
00:30:51study companion.
00:30:52I'd never be mistaken.
00:30:57He's really Prince Jeremy.
00:30:59Your Highness,
00:31:00please forgive me.
00:31:01Your Highness,
00:31:02we were too ignorant.
00:31:05If it weren't for your ignorance,
00:31:07I might never have witnessed
00:31:09such an entertaining display.
00:31:11I knew it.
00:31:12Spirians taught me
00:31:13to watch out
00:31:13when helping strangers.
00:31:14Turns out he's a prince.
00:31:15I should have demanded more gold.
00:31:19Marquise Genovia,
00:31:21since you've cut ties
00:31:22with my consort,
00:31:24she has nothing to do
00:31:25with your family anymore.
00:31:27Summon more people
00:31:28to Marquise Genovia Manor
00:31:29to help the consort move out.
00:31:31Yes, Your Highness.
00:31:32Your Highness,
00:31:33this is a misunderstanding.
00:31:34I was momentarily confused.
00:31:36It doesn't count.
00:31:36It's in black and white.
00:31:38Of course it counts.
00:31:39You may leave,
00:31:40but you can't take
00:31:41your mother's assets with them.
00:31:43They now belong to us.
00:31:45You're quite shameless.
00:31:46The lady of the household
00:31:48has the right
00:31:48to dispose of her own assets.
00:31:50Cynthia,
00:31:51your mother left
00:31:51everything to me.
00:31:53You're not taking anything.
00:31:54Who said my granddaughter
00:31:55has no right
00:31:56to take the assets?
00:32:01Grandfather!
00:32:02My dear,
00:32:04you're so grown now.
00:32:05I've wronged you.
00:32:07I've been at the frontier
00:32:08unaware that these bastards
00:32:09have been mistreating you.
00:32:12Grandfather,
00:32:12it's not your fault.
00:32:13They're responsible for this.
00:32:14The Deputy Minister of Justice
00:32:16is here.
00:32:16I'll settle every score with them.
00:32:18General Beck,
00:32:19you've traveled the long way.
00:32:20Why didn't you inform us?
00:32:22How else would I have caught you
00:32:23trying to harm my granddaughter?
00:32:25You've got nerve!
00:32:25It's a misunderstanding.
00:32:27Really?
00:32:28Your wife bribed this servant
00:32:29to hurt my granddaughter?
00:32:31I have the evidence.
00:32:32How would you explain yourself?
00:32:33Mrs. Shaw told me to poison
00:32:35Miss Cynthia's food.
00:32:36Her previous appearance
00:32:37was due to poisoning?
00:32:41She's so cruel.
00:32:44How could she be so ruthless?
00:32:47Mrs. Shaw,
00:32:48are you going to explain yourself?
00:32:49It's a lie!
00:32:50She's slandering me!
00:32:52She's slandering me!
00:32:57These are all the letters
00:32:58you've exchanged over the years,
00:33:00along with the jewelry
00:33:01and money you gave her.
00:33:02Don't deny it!
00:33:05If you have nothing to say,
00:33:07please come with us.
00:33:10Don't take my mother away!
00:33:12Ray, please help my mother!
00:33:14Please!
00:33:15She brought it upon herself!
00:33:20Lord Shaw, save me!
00:33:28General Beck,
00:33:29I had no idea
00:33:30this had been happening.
00:33:31I've truly wronged, Cynthia.
00:33:32From now on,
00:33:34I'll make it up to her.
00:33:35Really?
00:33:36We've already cut ties.
00:33:38Don't bother.
00:33:39I'm taking my mother's assets with me.
00:33:42Cynthia Shaw,
00:33:43I'm your father!
00:33:46Conrad Shaw,
00:33:48my daughter obtained a decree
00:33:49before she passed away.
00:33:51After her death,
00:33:52Cynthia will inherit
00:33:53all of her assets.
00:33:54Are you defying the decree?
00:33:58Take the inventory list,
00:33:59move everything
00:34:00that belongs to my mother.

00:38:21about the emperor's illness what do you think of prince frank and prince jeremy prince frank appears
00:38:27kind on the surface but he's actually corrupt he listens to false mystics and in pursuit of
00:38:32immortality harms innocent lives this is also why the emperor hasn't given him the throne
00:38:40this is also why the emperor
00:38:44hasn't given him the throne
00:38:46as for prince jeremy he's upright and cares for the people he has both talent and ability
00:38:53he's the best candidate for the throne

00:39:52merits alone but unfortunately you were simply too powerful and outstanding the emperor is seriously
00:39:57ill but he has no intention of handing power to prince frank most court officials side with you
00:40:02believing your ability far surpassed prince frank prince frank's faction became desperate and tried to
00:40:07kill you that's right i returned after a secret message from father yet i was ambushed you saved me

00:51:29the poison has spread too far
00:51:30even i can't save him
00:51:36remy it's been a long time since i called you that
00:51:39father
00:51:41that witch
00:51:44has wanted you dead for years

00:51:50do you resent me
00:51:52no
00:51:53i've been waiting for this day all along
00:51:56waiting for frank and that witch to expose their scheme
00:52:00waiting for you to return covered in glory and backed by the people
00:52:05i always thought such love didn't exist in the palace
00:52:08i never expected his majesty to risk even his own life for remy's future
00:52:16the person i've wronged most in this life is your mother
00:52:22i ascended the throne young with no power of my own
00:52:26the empress's family controlled everything
00:52:28i had no choice but to make her empress
00:52:31your mother committed suicide after giving birth to you so i'd have no burdens left
00:52:36i've been living like an empty shell ever since
00:52:39sometimes i think dying sooner would let me reunite with her
00:52:42don't say that father you'll recover
00:52:46i knew that woman was poisoning me but i played along
00:52:52i did it to lower their guard so i could slowly reclaim power
00:53:09remy
00:53:10your chances come
00:53:12cynthia
00:53:13since remy insisted on marrying you
00:53:17you must be extraordinary

00:53:25your majesty we were just working with each other
00:53:28i
00:53:37are you abandoning me too

00:58:07general beck already received
00:58:09father's secret decree
00:58:09the reason he came back
00:58:10was to secretly mobilize troops
00:58:12frank is finished
00:58:14your father really went all out
00:58:16for your sake
00:58:20you
00:58:27you
00:58:48Marlin, are you trying to rebel?
00:58:51I'm here to execute the traitors under His Majesty's orders.
00:58:54You both try to murder the Emperor and seize the throne.
00:58:57Execute them immediately.
00:59:01Impossible. I'm the Crown Prince.
00:59:03Father wouldn't do this to me. I want to see him.
00:59:05I want to see His Majesty. I want to see His Majesty.
00:59:14Bridget, you've lost.
00:59:18You already knew our plan.
00:59:20So you had Marlin return to the capital
00:59:22under the excuse of visiting his granddaughter
00:59:24while secretly mobilizing troops.
00:59:26Your maternal family's influence ran deep.
00:59:28It took me ten years to remove you all.
00:59:31If you'd just stayed in line,
00:59:32I could have still spared you.
00:59:34What a shame.
00:59:37Kill them.
00:59:39Leave no one alive.
00:59:43Father, I'm your son too.
00:59:45Why, why are you doing this to me?
00:59:49Why don't you ask your mother
00:59:52who your father really is?
01:00:04You already knew.
01:00:06So you already knew.
01:00:08Now that's shocking.
01:00:10The Crown Prince is actually a bastard?
01:00:14I just found out too.
01:00:19This is all your fault.
01:00:20The throne should have been mine.
01:00:22I am the Crown Prince.
01:00:24Kill them.
01:00:25Wipe out everyone in the Eastern Hall.
01:00:32Why are you still alive?
01:00:34Why are you still alive?
01:00:34I'm still waiting to take your position.
01:00:37Why you.
01:00:38You.
01:00:39Move everything valuable from her room to mine.
01:00:41She's practically dead.
01:00:43She won't need it.
01:00:46Miss Larson.
01:00:47She's dead.
01:00:48Finally, about time.
01:00:56You bitch.
01:00:58To save yourself,
01:00:59you didn't even care about me.
01:01:00I'm the legitimate daughter.
01:01:02You're just my sister.
01:01:03So what if you die for me?
01:01:04Enough.
01:01:05You're still fighting at this rate?
01:01:11Once the Emperor dies,
01:01:12His Highness will take the throne.
01:01:14As long as it's not Jeremy.
01:01:15That bitch Cynthia can't touch us.
01:01:28Lord Shah, something happened at the palace.
01:01:30His Majesty has passed away.
01:01:32The throne has been passed to Prince Jeremy.
01:01:34The Crown Prince and the Empress

01:02:22Father!
01:02:23Cynthia took her mother's wedding gifts with her.
01:02:25We don't have any money now.
01:02:27Father!
01:02:35Father entrusted me to you before he died.
01:02:38You can't go back on your word.
01:02:40Jeremy, stop playing dumb.
01:02:41We agreed this was just a partnership.
01:02:43You've already seen my body.
01:02:45You have to take responsibility.
01:02:47Cynthia, be my Empress.
01:02:49You'll be my only woman.
01:02:51I'll offer you the Empire and its Treasury.
01:02:54All trade routes in Xandria will be yours to command.
01:02:57I'll give you anything you want.
01:02:59The Treasury?
01:03:00Then I'd be loaded.
01:03:02I'm Her Majesty's biological father.
01:03:05I want to see the Empress.
01:03:06You can't strip me of my status.
01:03:08I want to see His Majesty.
01:03:31Mero died.
01:03:32Winona went insane.
01:03:33Mona eloped with Rey.
01:03:34Both were slain by bandits.
01:03:36Norvale was found corrupt.
01:03:37His family ruined.
01:03:38Conrad lost his title and wealth to his concubines,
01:03:41and now he begs for the empress.
01:03:43Give this to him and tell him this.
01:03:45When he and Ruth killed my mother,
01:03:47he should have seen this coming.
01:03:49I won't kill him.
01:03:51I want him to live in misery,
01:03:53because death would be too easy for him.
01:03:55Cynthia, from now on, I'll be your family.
