00:00don't care about her empire. I was an orphan, taken in by my adoptive parents when I had nothing.
00:05My sister is their biological daughter, the bloodline they left behind. Before they passed
00:09away, their trembling hands held mine, making me promise to protect her with my life. I gave them
00:13my word. If my cosmic knowledge has made me powerful today, the only thing I want to exchange
00:19it for is my sister's life. For the first time, Elena's frozen mass cracks. Her wintry eyes
00:25softened by a fraction as she looks at me, as if truly seeing me for the very first time.
00:30Your sister will be safe, Elena says. Her voice is completely flat, businesslike, and stripped of
00:36all emotion. She will have a courtyard in the inner sanctum and a squadron of my personal guards. No
00:42one will touch her. But... She pauses, her gaze dropping to the small gray egg resting on her
00:47lap. Her face remains completely cold. But what? You will provide me with the exact step-by-step
00:52methodology to incubate this specimen. And you will ensure its soul bond links directly to my mana
00:58signature. I am referring to... hatching it myself. She says it so seriously, so professionally,
01:06as if she isn't secretly dying to have a legendary, armored, divine beast of her own.
