00:00:00I thought of Raven's cold, expressionless face. He didn't look weak without it at all.
00:00:05Everyone's buying Incubi online these days. I couldn't afford one, so I grabbed mine off the street.
00:00:10The quality wasn't great. He'd rather starve than feed.
00:00:14I snapped a photo of his Incubus mark, messaged the seller how to train him. He freaked out.
00:00:19Are you fucking kidding me? That's not an Incubus! That's a demon. The worst kind.
00:00:24After work, I casually asked one of my coworkers,
00:00:27What do you do if your Incubus refuses to feed?
00:00:30That's not possible. They live on that. Mine feeds three times a week. My friend's even worse. Five times isn't
00:00:35enough.
00:00:36They're that needy?
00:00:37I thought of Raven's cold, expressionless face. He didn't look weak without it at all.
00:00:42Well, there are a couple of possibilities.
00:00:44Like what?
00:00:46Either he already bonded with a previous owner, or there's something wrong with him. You should probably ask the seller.
00:00:53I couldn't tell her the truth. I hadn't bought my Incubus. I'd found him in a dumpster.
00:00:57Still, she'd given me an idea. That night, after I got home, I studied Raven. Dark skin. Solid muscle. Sharp
00:01:06jaw. A face anyone would stop and stare at.
00:01:09What?
00:01:10Do you feel off at all?
00:01:12I'm perfectly fine.
00:01:13Raven had a terrible temper. Nothing like those obedient, affectionate Incubi people showed off online. To figure out what was
00:01:21wrong with him, I reached over and started checking him myself. The moment my palm touched them, the muscles tensed
00:01:27beneath his skin.
00:01:28What the hell are you doing? Who said you could touch me? Get your filthy hands off me!
00:01:32My gaze drifted lower. Raven panicked.
00:01:35What are you looking at? You think a human's allowed to look there, Iris?
00:01:38It was highly possible that Pard was the problem. Otherwise, who would throw away an Incubus this gorgeous?
00:01:43I emerged from the bedroom, having changed into something different. I had to find out for myself. I swung a
00:01:51lag over his lap.
00:01:52Are you hungry?
00:01:54Get off me. What did you make me take? I can't fight back.
00:01:57A little Incubo medication?
00:01:59You drugged me? Iris! I'm going to kill you!
00:02:02You should be calling me Master.
00:02:04I'm not some pathetic lower life form. I'm a pure blood dem-
00:02:07He stopped himself. His eyes locked onto mine, as if he were holding something back, with every ounce of will
00:02:13-
00:02:13He shoved me away hard enough that I stumbled backward.
00:02:17You think that little drug is enough to control me? Humans are idiots.
00:02:22I watched him storm out of the room. Case closed. Not only had he had another master before, he still
00:02:29couldn't forget her.
00:02:30I'd actually suspected it for a while. After all, he wasn't factory fresh. I found him on the street.
00:02:36Everyone's buying Incubi online. They say they'll do anything to please their owners. Some of them even cook and clean.
00:02:43I'd always wanted one. I just couldn't afford it.
00:02:46A month ago, I found Raven lying beside a dumpster. His face was deathly pale, and he looked like he
00:02:52was gonna die in any second.
00:02:55Getting him home was a nightmare. He was ridiculously heavy and tall. All muscle. I practically dragged him the whole
00:03:02way.
00:03:02I gave him food and drink. His hands shook as he lifted the glass. It was the first time I'd
00:03:08ever seen him with his guard down.
00:03:09Do you remember where you came from? Once you're feeling better, I'll help you find your owner.
00:03:14I don't have one.
00:03:16What?
00:03:16I don't have an owner!
00:03:18But he had a name. Incubi didn't name themselves. Their owners did. So I figured he'd been thrown away.
00:03:23I let Raven stay. Now I understood why. He'd never gotten over his previous owner.
00:03:29A few days later, my suspicion was confirmed. That weekend, I took Raven to the beach.
00:03:35Considering you've been living off my fridge, if a giant wave comes at us, you're saving me first.
00:03:39Raven grunted, but he didn't sound interested. But when we got there, something suddenly made him alert.
00:03:45I followed Raven's gaze and realized he was staring at a girl. I was sure she was his former owner.
00:03:51Suddenly, a massive wave came crashing toward the shore. Raven left me without a second thought.
00:03:56He ran straight to the girl. I didn't get out of the way in time.
00:03:59Do you know her?
00:04:01I came down with a cold.
00:04:03Humans are so fragile. A little water and you're already sick.
00:04:07Good evening. We've received a report of an unregistered creature in the area. We'd appreciate your cooperation.
00:04:10An unregistered creature?
00:04:12That's right. Under current regulations, any unregistered creature must be taken into custody.
00:04:17Get in!
00:04:22Can't you make yourself smaller?
00:04:24You think I can change my height?
00:04:26Then crouch!
00:04:29The officers searched my apartment and found nothing. Then their eyes landed on the closet.
00:04:34Would you mind opening that for us?
00:04:35I stepped in front of it.
00:04:36No.
00:04:37We need to inspect every part of the apartment.
00:04:39It has my underwear in there. And a few outfits that are for my boyfriend's eyes only.
00:04:44The two officers exchanged an awkward look.
00:04:46And if we insist?
00:04:47It's already crossing the line for you to break into my house in the middle of the night, and now
00:04:51you want to humiliate me too?
00:04:52Then knock me out first.
00:04:54They hesitated, then quietly disgusted among themselves.
00:04:57Never mind. A girl like you couldn't hide anything dangerous.
00:05:00Dangerous?
00:05:00We mean a demon.
00:05:02I remembered the news I'd seen a few days earlier.
00:05:05There had been reports of a demon in the area.
00:05:07Citizens were told to stay alert.
00:05:09Once the officers finally left, Raven climbed out of the closet.
00:05:13Why didn't you hand me over?
00:05:14Because you'd probably end up dead.
00:05:15You heard them? They're looking for a demon.
00:05:18They're looking for a demon. What does that have to do with a little incumper like you?
00:05:22Incumper?
00:05:22Mm-hmm.
00:05:23Incumper mark.
00:05:24I pointed to the mark on his waist.
00:05:26You've got an incumper mark. You seriously want me to believe you're a demon?
00:05:29I had no idea what I'd said wrong, but he was glaring at me again.
00:05:33Still, even if you don't like me, or never accept me as your master, I'll still protect you.
00:05:38Why?
00:05:38Because I like you. That's enough.
00:05:41Somehow, Raven took it the wrong way. His ears turned red. And somehow, I could see him blush.
00:05:47It started at the tips of his ears, then crept across his cheeks.
00:05:51W-what are you talking about?
00:05:52He stammered.
00:05:54You're... way too forward.
00:05:56I was going to help him get back to his former owner. Until then, I'd keep him safe.
00:06:01Considered later, I asked the girl out for coffee. I got her number that day, at the beach.
00:06:06It wasn't hard to make a call. Her name was Tara. She was adorable. I asked her,
00:06:11Did you ever abandon an incubus?
00:06:13How did you know?
00:06:14Tara's eyes went wide.
00:06:15Was he dark-skinned?
00:06:16Yeah, he was really tall, around 6'3", and he had horns and wings. His incubus mark is on his
00:06:21waist.
00:06:21It was Raven.
00:06:22Can I ask why you got rid of him?
00:06:24Well, to be honest...
00:06:27I didn't like his personality.
00:06:29Fair enough.
00:06:30Raven wasn't exactly easy to live with.
00:06:32The store shut down after I bought him. I couldn't return him, so I let him go.
00:06:36You found Hamden, didn't you?
00:06:38He misses you.
00:06:39I kind of regretted it afterward. He was actually pretty great. Tall, handsome, and very... capable.
00:06:45Then get him back.
00:06:47Abandoning an incubator is no different than abandoning a pet.
00:06:49Why not?
00:06:50Sunrise. He opened his eyes and sighted a body bag.
00:07:04Hold back the dark.
00:07:13Tonight, none of you leave this town alive.
00:07:29Who are you looking for?
00:07:34I see you, Dawn Order.
00:07:37Every shadow in this town belongs to me.
00:07:40You cannot hide her.
00:07:42I will find the pureblood child.
00:07:51Winter nights in St. Victor City were always damp.
00:07:54Before that night, he always thought he was lucky.
00:07:56His name is Ethan Gray.
00:07:57Ethan had an ordinary job filing fire department records.
00:08:00A gentle wife named Mara, and a daughter, Lily, who covered the fridge in crayon drawings.
00:08:05That evening, Mara came home from the hospital.
00:08:07Pale, she said she'd found a batch of impossible transfusion records in the old archives.
00:08:11The dead were still signing their names years after they'd died.
00:08:14Ethan figured she was just exhausted and poured her a hot coffee.
00:08:17Outside, a crow landed on the streetlight and stared at their window.
00:08:20Late that night, Lily suddenly asked.
00:08:22Daddy, why are there people without shadows standing at the door?
00:08:27Ethan turned.
00:08:28The glass showed only the lamp inside.
00:08:29The next second, the doorbell rang.
00:08:31Back then, he didn't know the people outside weren't guests.
00:08:34They were the start of every nightmare to come.
00:08:35As he reached for the doorknob, Mara grabbed his wrist.
00:08:38Her fingers were terribly cold.
00:08:41Don't believe a word they say.
00:08:44Ethan checked the monitor.
00:08:45Three figures in long black coats stood outside, faces pale as freshly dug corpses.
00:08:50The lead man smiled.
00:08:51The hospital sent us to verify some files.
00:08:54Mara heard the voice.
00:08:55Her cup shattered in her hand.
00:08:57She lunged to lock the door, but the deadbolt had already been snapped from outside, without a sound.
00:09:02The three slipped into the living room like fog.
00:09:04Ethan grabbed the iron fireplace hook and charged.
00:09:06A casual swipe sent her crashing into the wall.
00:09:09Lily hid under the dining table.
00:09:11Mara planted herself in front of her.
00:09:13The man sniffed the air and smiled.
00:09:15Found it.
00:09:16The pureblood child.
00:09:18Ethan crawled up, face-licked with blood, and finally saw the fangs sliding out of their mouths.
00:09:22That was when he understood, the secret Mara never finished telling him had already shoved their family into the middle
00:09:27of a hunting ground.
00:09:28Ethan tried to follow.
00:09:30The man turned and smiled at him.
00:09:31It wasn't the smile a man gives an enemy.
00:09:33It was.
00:09:34The smile a man gives a delivery slip he's just signed for.
00:09:39And then drove a broken table leg into one of their chests.
00:09:42The thing shrieked.
00:09:43Black smoke pouring from the wound.
00:09:44The other two looked stunned for the first time.
00:09:46An ordinary man wasn't supposed to manage that.
00:09:49But he was still too weak.
00:09:50Ethan watched Mara fall in a pool of blood.
00:09:52Ethan watched the dark swallow Lily's crying just as fangs were closing on his throat.
00:09:56Heels clicked over broken glass at the door.
00:09:58A silver-haired woman in red lipstick walked in.
00:10:00Every vampire dropped to their knees.
00:10:02She looked down at him like she was studying a dying wolf that still wanted to bite.
00:10:07Interesting.
00:10:09Leave him a breath.
00:10:11Ethan thought he'd been saved.
00:10:13Later, he learned she'd just picked a different hell for him.
00:10:15Ethan clawed toward the basement.
00:10:17Serafina raised a hand.
00:10:18The dark came down like a tide.
00:10:19Lily's lap in the blood court.
00:10:21She didn't comfort him.
00:10:22She didn't explain.
00:10:23She knelt.
00:10:23Pried his jaw open.
00:10:24And let a single drop of dark gold blood fall onto his tongue.
00:10:27I.T. burned like molten iron sliding down his throat.
00:10:30His bones felt like they were growing again.
00:10:32But his ears went sharp.
00:10:33Terrifyingly sharp.
00:10:34Ethan could hear his own heartbeat slow.
00:10:36Ethan could hear rats running 10 streets over.
00:10:39Ethan could hear Mara's blood going cold.
00:10:40Serafina leaned close to.
00:10:42His ear.
00:10:42Live Ethan Gray.
00:10:44Let me see what kind of monster human hatred can raise.
00:10:47Then she dumped him in a graveyard outside the city before sunrise.
00:10:51He opened his eyes inside a body bag.
00:10:52The wounds were already closed.
00:10:54What the queen gave him wasn't life.
00:10:56It was a collar.
00:10:56Ethan tried to spit the blood out.
00:10:58I.T. had already taken root.
00:10:59Worse.
00:11:00He could hear his own heart starting to answer it.
00:11:03When he crawled out of the body bag.
00:11:05The first ray of dawn touched the back of his hand.
00:11:07His skin charred and smoked.
00:11:09Ethan bolted into the shadow of a headstone.
00:11:10Throat burning with a hunger he couldn't bear.
00:11:12The night watchman heard the noise and walked over.
00:11:14Ethan nearly threw himself on his throat.
00:11:16I.T. the last second.
00:11:17Lily's voice.
00:11:19Cut through him.
00:11:20Ethan slammed his head into the stone.
00:11:21Until blood ran down his face.
00:11:23After nightfall.
00:11:23He went home.
00:11:24The scene had been scrubbed clean.
00:11:26The police report called it a gang break-in.
00:11:28His wife and daughter's bodies had already been cremated.
00:11:30In the ashes.
00:11:31He found Lily's red hair clip.
00:11:32Dot on the back was a rose brand he'd never seen.
00:11:35Before daylight would burn him.
00:11:36Blood would tempt him.
00:11:37And his daughter might not be dead at all.
00:11:39Ethan closed his fist around that hair clip.
00:11:40Until his knuckles went white.
00:11:42The rose didn't look like a marker.
00:11:43It looked like an invitation.
00:11:45Left for him on purpose.
00:11:46Ethan survived his first day in the cemetery.
00:11:48And that was when he truly understood what Serafina had given him.
00:11:51Not a second life.
00:11:52But an invisible set of chains.
00:11:54Sunlight burned him.
00:11:55Blood called to him.
00:11:55The breathing of normal people sounded like torture.
00:11:57But every time the hunger pushed him to the edge.
00:12:00He remembered Lily's voice under the dining table calling daddy.
00:12:02That sound was a nail.
00:12:04It pinned him to the human side.
00:12:05The rose brand led him to an underground bar.
00:12:07The music was deafening.
00:12:08The perfume choking.
00:12:09I.N.
00:12:10The corner sat one of the low blood vampires who'd broken into his house.
00:12:13Ethan cut his palm with a silver knife.
00:12:15Smeared blood on a wooden stake.
00:12:16And waited until it was feeding on a drunk.
00:12:18Before driving the stake through its heart.
00:12:20Black blood.
00:12:20Pool of blood.
00:12:21Serafina's smile.
00:12:22And Lily's small back as she was carried into a black carriage.
00:12:25The images came too fast.
00:12:26Ethan knelt in a bathroom stall and threw up until his throat tore.
00:12:29But while Lily was still in those visions.
00:12:31He couldn't let himself pass out.
00:12:38The moment he stepped out of the bar.
00:12:40Every street light on the block went dark at once.
00:12:42A dozen black clad hunters appeared from the alley.
00:12:45Crossbows.
00:12:45Silver nets.
00:12:47UV lamps.
00:12:48All aimed at him.
00:12:49Ethan fought.
00:12:49A silver spike punched through his shoulder.
00:12:51And dropped him to his knees.
00:12:52When he woke.
00:12:53He was chained to a chair in an underground interrogation room.
00:12:56Silver at every joint.
00:12:57A black haired woman stood in front of him.
00:12:59Her name was Evelyn Crow.
00:13:00Head of the Dawn Order.
00:13:01They hunted vampires.
00:13:03Half bloods don't get a trial.
00:13:05Just the fire.
00:13:07Ethan didn't beg.
00:13:08Ethan just looked at her.
00:13:09Do you know who killed my daughter?
00:13:11She was quiet for a moment.
00:13:12Then pressed a silver blade against his chest.
00:13:15Prove you're still human.
00:13:17When the blade came down.
00:13:18He wasn't afraid of dying.
00:13:20Ethan was afraid Mara and Lily's real cause of death would burn with him.
00:13:23She studied him for a long time.
00:13:24Like she was measuring how much soul he had left.
00:13:27Ethan held her gaze.
00:13:28Because she might be the only door to the truth he had.
00:13:32The dragon training method that Cain taught me was truly overwhelming.
00:13:36In just half a year.
00:13:37My cultivation level has almost reached the master level.
00:13:47You've done a good job.
00:13:48But your breathing isn't steady enough.
00:13:50Viniel!
00:13:51No!
00:13:53No!
00:13:55No!
00:13:55No!
00:13:55No!
00:13:56No!
00:13:56No!
00:13:56No!
00:13:56No!
00:13:57No!
00:13:58No!
00:13:58No!
00:13:59No!
00:14:02Viniel, why?
00:14:03You always make things difficult for Ella on a daily basis.
00:14:06This is the punishment you deserve.
00:14:08Viniel!
00:14:09Ella!
00:14:09You won't get away with it!
00:14:11Aaaaaah!
00:14:16Leila, what's wrong?
00:14:18Leila!
00:14:19It's your turn now.
00:14:21Leila!
00:14:21This ancient frost wolf Fenyon is compatible with your water magic.
00:14:26Sign the contract with him, and he will become your most powerful companion.
00:14:36Leila, I know I'm not qualified to compete with you.
00:14:39But I grew up in the countryside all my life, and have never seen such a beautiful frost wolf.
00:14:45Leila, you are very capable.
00:14:46This black snake has a mixed bloodline.
00:14:48It's better not to exchange with Ella.
00:14:50Yes!
00:14:51That black snake was on the verge of death.
00:14:53Only Leila could save it.
00:14:54They have no idea at all.
00:14:56In my previous life, I sacrificed everything for this bloodthirsty wolf, only to die under
00:15:01the effect of the seal it broke.
00:15:02In this life, whoever wants to keep it can do so.
00:15:06I just found this little snake quite appealing.
00:15:09Since the frost wolf refused to recognize me, I took advantage of the situation and swapped
00:15:13with Ella instead.
00:15:16Leila must be crazy!
00:15:18That's a pure-blood ancient frost wolf!
00:15:20This black snake doesn't even have magical flubrations!
00:15:22If it were placed by someone else, Leila's reputation's densities would be ruined!
00:15:29Leila, how could I be so presumptuous?
00:15:35What are you yelling about?
00:15:36This time around, I'll let you take the lead in training your new master.
00:15:42Fenyar, without the top-notch demonic core I provide for you, I'll see just how long it
00:15:47will take for you, this ancient beast, to conform into a human form.
00:15:50In my previous life, I was really stupid.
00:15:52At the age of seven, I witnessed my parents being torn apart when one becomes stronger.
00:15:57I...
00:16:01Fenor, this is the magic core I obtained by killing three demons of hell.
00:16:06Go ahead and eat it.
00:16:07In order to please Fenrian, I did everything I could, and fought desperately to slay the
00:16:12monsters in the abyss.
00:16:22Layla, you often go on missions.
00:16:24You entrusted Ella to take care of frost wolf for you.
00:16:26Look at them.
00:16:28They are like a couple.
00:16:29When did I ever entrust her with anything?
00:16:31The black snake, she had lost its life the following year.
00:16:34Without taking care of you?
00:16:35The frost wolf?
00:16:36Who else could she have taken care of?
00:16:37Ella had planned for ten years.
00:16:39She deliberately let the black snake die so that she could wait for me to raise Fenorill
00:16:44properly, and then take him for herself naturally.
00:16:47Layla, you've been targeting Ella everywhere.
00:16:49This is the punishment you deserve.
00:16:52What?
00:17:01Fenorill, Ella!
00:17:02I won't let you go!
00:17:05Since you all want that divine beast this time around, I'll allow you to keep it for as long
00:17:09as you like.
00:17:15Ella, without the magic core I sacrificed my life for, I'm going to...
00:17:19see how you're going to support that gold-devouring beast.
00:17:22As for this little snake, even if its bloodline is mixed, I still want to make him the prongest
00:17:27being in this academy.
00:17:31The tail resembles a fish fin, and the scales have a bluey sheen.
00:17:36Could this be a hybrid of aquatic dragon species?
00:17:43You seem to be able to keep a calm mind, but don't think for a moment that I won't poison
00:17:48you to help you form a better magical pet.
00:17:54This little thing has a rather strong temper.
00:17:56Just rest and recover.
00:17:58Frost Wolf can take care of me, and you're just a little snake.
00:18:04Frost Wolf can take care of me, and you're just a little snake.
00:18:08Without this kind of pressure, his strength is definitely greater than mine.
00:18:13When did he come in?
00:18:17Black snake?
00:18:20Impolite.
00:18:22Remember, I have a name.
00:18:24Cain Shadow.
00:18:25I am a hybrid of the black dragon and the candle dragon.
00:18:29I transformed into a snake to escape from my enemies.
00:18:32Unexpectedly, by some strange twist of fate, I ended up forming a soul bond with this little
00:18:37girl of yours.
00:18:37Oh, no.
00:18:39Just after dealing with that mess with Frost Wolf, here comes another troublesome person
00:18:44who's being chased.
00:18:45So, am I really a junk collector?
00:18:51Listen, the contract has been signed.
00:18:53You are my master, and I am your servant.
00:18:56Also, please allow the master to continue practicing diligently in the future.
00:18:59Please don't hold me back.
00:19:04This wolf is so difficult to take care of!
00:19:08How did Lila manage to raise it?
00:19:15The dragon training method that Cain taught me was truly overwhelming.
00:19:19In just half a year, my cultivation level has almost reached the master level.
00:19:30You've done a good job, but your breathing isn't steady enough.
00:19:32That is hairkin.
00:19:33Soft.
00:19:34Fragile.
00:19:34Born looking like something that needs protection.
00:19:36And I am the last nine-tailed fox shifter in all of Eldrath.
00:19:39Strong, resilient, supernaturally fast to heal.
00:19:41Carrying nine lives.
00:19:42So father and mother favor her.
00:19:44And my own betrothed pities her.
00:19:45Every hurt, every sacrifice, it all falls on me.
00:19:48My adopted sister, Dahlia, steals my elixir and wins the alchemy trials with it.
00:19:51Never guessing the prize is marriage.
00:19:53In my past life, I seduced a serpent man with my body and a blood curt.
00:19:57He set fire to my house and burned me to death.
00:20:00When I opened my eyes, I came back to the day I seduced Calum.
00:20:03This life, I'll choose the dragon.
00:20:05I'll go to the dragon in your place.
00:20:07A blood exchange between you and me.
00:20:09Deal.
00:20:10It was Calum, without the slightest hesitation.
00:20:13You actually believed her?
00:20:14She might kill you!
00:20:15I jumped and threw myself into that endless void.
00:20:17But in the midst of my endless fall, something caught me.
00:20:20Are you my bride?
00:20:21In my past life, to avoid being sacrificed to the terrifying dragon,
00:20:25I seduced a serpent man with my body and a blood curt.
00:20:30I made Calum unable to resist the allure of my body,
00:20:33chaining him to me against his will.
00:20:34For that, he hated me guts.
00:20:37Later, he set fire to my house and burned me to death.
00:20:45Engulfed by the flames, I saw Calum and my elder sister, Sarah,
00:20:48locked in a passionate embrace.
00:20:49Sarah, I'll never let you go.
00:20:54When I opened my eyes, I came back to the day I seduced Calum.
00:20:59This life, I'll choose the dragon.
00:21:02Calum had me by the throat, pinning me against the wall.
00:21:07How could you a blood curt just to keep me from marrying Sarah?
00:21:11And you'd watch her walk into that fire?
00:21:13Being sacrificed to dragon?
00:21:16Sarah won't be sent to dragon's dem.
00:21:18I'll make sure of it.
00:21:20Dragons burn every woman who bears their children to ashes.
00:21:24Three bondmans had already died at the dragon-air-aldrark's side.
00:21:33Yet a fortnight ago, a chest of jewels arrived by Falcon,
00:21:36with a letter naming no bride in particular.
00:21:40Only that he wanted one from Ashwheel.
00:21:44Mother held the letter and shed tears nilantly.
00:21:47Father said frowning, glancing griltily at my sister.
00:21:50We can't refuse him.
00:21:51The last family to do so had vanished in a sea of fire.
00:21:54Sarah must go!
00:21:56In my past life, my elder sister Sarah was the only choice for the dragon-aldrark,
00:22:01because I had bound Calium to me.
00:22:03This time, I'll go for her.
00:22:06Nonsense.
00:22:07Do you even believe your own words?
00:22:11I mean what I say.
00:22:14Calium, I'll dissolve the blood curse.
00:22:18I'll dissolve the blood curse.
00:22:20I tracked down the spider shifter who had sold me the blood curse in the first place.
00:22:24The Serpent Clan identifies their mates through blood.
00:22:28You need to have a blood exchange with the one he loves.
00:22:32Some did not survive the exchange.
00:22:35The one Calium loved was Sarah.
00:22:37She then took out a bottle of green potion.
00:22:39But with this, at least one of you will survive.
00:22:44My head was splitting, but I didn't rest.
00:22:47I rode hard back to Ashwheel Manor.
00:22:51Calium was already there.
00:22:53His tail coiled around my body.
00:22:55The blood curse has clearly taken effect.
00:22:58I found a way to break the curse.
00:23:00I need to exchange blood with Sarah.
00:23:01With this!
00:23:02He knocked my hands open before I could finish.
00:23:04The bottle hit the ground.
00:23:05Vera, are you done?
00:23:07Blood exchange?
00:23:08Why don't you just say you want Sarah dead?
00:23:12I jumped straight into the rose thicket to find the bottle myself.
00:23:16A rose thorn pricked my finger, and blood flowed out.
00:23:21Smelling my blood, he dragged me against him.
00:23:24Heat radiated off his skin.
00:23:26I felt the desire stirring in him, restless, barely contained.
00:23:31My heart dropped out from under me.
00:23:33Snakes are inherently lustful.
00:23:34You're drawn to my blood.
00:23:35If Sarah had my blood...
00:23:37Wretched whack!
00:23:42He stooped a little, attempting to kiss my lips.
00:23:47I dodged and wrenched free.
00:23:49Calium looked at me like I was a lunaturk, and walked away.
00:23:53I was a lunaturk.
00:23:56So I had to go find Sarah myself.
00:24:00Since Sarah was chosen as the dragon bride,
00:24:02she has moved to our family's estate in the north,
00:24:05the closest place to the dragon's den.
00:24:08When Calium lay dying, shifting into his serpent form,
00:24:10it was me who saved him.
00:24:12But he had always believed it was Sarah.
00:24:14And Sarah never told him the truth.
00:24:16She despised me, so when I came to her room,
00:24:18she didn't even look up.
00:24:20I'll go to the dragon in your place.
00:24:23But I need something from you first.
00:24:25What?
00:24:26Your blood.
00:24:27A blood exchange between you and me.
00:24:30Deal.
00:24:32The blood exchange took place on an altar deep in a darkened cave,
00:24:35presided over by a serpent clan priest.
00:24:38I cut my wrist and bled while her blood entered me.
00:24:40The pain took me under twice,
00:24:42while Sarah, due to the benefit of green potion,
00:24:44didn't even wince.
00:24:46Just as the ceremony was about to end,
00:24:48a figure suddenly rushed in and interrupted everything.
00:24:50It was Calium.
00:24:51Without the slightest hesitation,
00:24:52he rushed towards Sarah and pulled her into his arms.
00:24:55Are you alright?
00:24:56You shouldn't have come.
00:24:57How could I not come?
00:24:58You actually believed her?
00:24:59She might kill you!
00:25:01So this is how he sees me.
00:25:02If it means being with you,
00:25:03it's worth trying.
00:25:06One tear traced down the corner of her eye
00:25:08at exactly the right moment.
00:25:11No one shall attend her!
00:25:13Leave her!
00:25:13Let her rot!
00:25:15I'm the only one left in the cave.
00:25:17I stumbled to the other end of the cave.
00:25:20Cold wind.
00:25:21Below.
00:25:21Nothing but the abyss.
00:25:23In despair, I jumped and threw myself into that endless void.
00:25:27But in the midst of my endless fall,
00:25:28something caught me.
00:25:29Claws.
00:25:30Firm and sure.
00:25:31Then I was rising.
00:25:32I heard a deep, resonant voice coming from above.
00:25:35Are you my bride?
00:25:36I quickly knew it was the dragon.
00:25:38My death is confirmed.
00:25:40As soon as I landed,
00:25:42I saw the giant dragon that grabbed me transform into a handsome young man,
00:25:45and the touch of his scorching skin made me realize that he was almost naked.
00:25:48My cold body instinctively moved closer to him.
00:25:50I reached out and hooked around his neck.
00:25:55What do you want?
00:25:56Can you grant me one last request?
00:25:58He breathed more heavily,
00:26:00and the damp heat of his sweat reached me.
00:26:02You smell good.
00:26:03His hands were burning against my skin,
00:26:05moving slowly, relentlessly.
00:26:07Don't stop.
00:26:08I don't want to die cold.
00:26:15The dragon fulfilled my last wish.
00:26:21Let decay halt.
00:26:23Let suffering be sealed.
00:26:24Let blood returns to its old law.
00:26:26Let the heart's fire burn steady once more.
00:26:29Healing's separation.
00:26:31You're back.
00:26:32Is that snake boy really worth dying for?
00:26:35Father.
00:26:36Mother.
00:26:37I want to marry Aldric.
00:26:38I want to take the dragon.
00:26:40What?
00:26:41I let them settle,
00:26:43then told them the past life as though it had been a dream.
00:26:45This time I want to take a different road.
00:26:47But Aldric, that road isn't a good one.
00:26:49No creature's come back from a dragon's side alive.
00:26:51Calum doesn't want me.
00:26:52And if none of us go,
00:26:54Aldric will not simply let our family alone.
00:26:56I had my own fears.
00:26:57In my past life,
00:26:58Sarah had escaped the dragon's den.
00:26:59The dragon's wrath consumed my entire family.
00:27:02I couldn't follow that path.
00:27:03Perhaps if I don't be pregnant this far.
00:27:05Father and mother had barely left
00:27:07when Calum appeared in my doorway.
00:27:09A bottle in his hand.
00:27:10The wound medicine from the Serpent Clan.
00:27:12He was about to apply medicine to my wound,
00:27:14but I hedged his touch.
00:27:15The curse is broken.
00:27:18But I can't marry you.
00:27:19I can't watch Sarah walk into danger and do nothing.
00:27:22What are you planning to do?
00:27:24He didn't answer.
00:27:25Probably afraid I'd interfere.
00:27:27On the morning of the wedding,
00:27:28I dressed early.
00:27:30The gown was a mix of red and white.
00:27:32Red as blood, white as snow.
00:27:33As in the past life,
00:27:34a boat was prepared,
00:27:35filled with pearls, mermanes' tears.
00:27:37It looked less like a wedding procession
00:27:39and more like a ritual for sacrifice.
00:27:41I climbed into the boat.
00:27:43The drums and horns started.
00:27:45I put on the white veil
00:27:46and looked exactly like Sarah.
00:27:52Sarah, come with me now.
00:27:55It was Calium.
00:27:57Nonsense.
00:27:58Do you even believe your own words?
00:28:02I mean what I say.
00:28:05Calium, I'll dissolve the blood curse.
00:28:11I tracked down the spider shifter
00:28:12who had sold me the blood curse in the first place.
00:28:15The Serpent Clan identifies their mates through blood.
00:28:18You need to have a blood exchange
00:28:20with the one he loves.
00:28:23Some did not survive the exchange.
00:28:26The one Calium loved was Sarah.
00:28:28She then took out a bottle of green potion.
00:28:30But with this,
00:28:31at least one of you will survive.
00:28:35My head was splitting,
00:28:37but I didn't rest.
00:28:38I rode hard back to Ashwheel Manor.
00:28:42Calium was already there.
00:28:44His tail coiled around my body.
00:28:46The blood curse has clearly taken effect.
00:28:49I found a way to break the curse.
00:28:51I need to exchange blood with Sarah.
00:28:52With this.

00:29:17I felt the desire stirring in him.
00:29:19Restless.
00:29:20Barely contained.
00:29:21My heart dropped out from under me.
00:29:23Snakes are inherently lustful.
00:29:25You're drawn to my blood.
00:29:26If Sarah had my blood.
00:29:29Wretched whack.
00:29:33He stooped a little,
00:29:35attempting to kiss my lips.
00:29:38I dodged and wrenched free.
00:29:40Calium looked at me like I was a lunaturk
00:29:42and walked away.
00:29:47So I had to go find Sarah myself.

00:30:45Are you alright?
00:30:47You shouldn't have come.
00:30:48How could I not come?
00:30:49You actually believed her?
00:30:50She might kill you!
00:30:51So this is how he sees me.
00:30:53If it means being with you,
00:30:54it's worth trying.
00:30:57One tear traced down the corner of her eye
00:30:59at exactly the right moment.
00:31:02No one shall attend her!
00:31:03Leave her!
00:31:04Let her rot!
00:31:06I'm the only one left in the cave.
00:31:08I stumbled to the other end of the cave.
00:31:11Cold wind.
00:31:12Below.
00:31:12Nothing but the abyss.
00:31:14In despair,
00:31:14I jumped and threw myself
00:31:15into that endless void.
00:31:17But in the midst of my endless fall,
00:31:19something caught me.
00:31:20Claws.
00:31:21Firm and sure.
00:31:22Then I was rising.
00:31:23I heard a deep,
00:31:24resonant voice coming from above.
00:31:26Are you my bride?
00:31:27I quickly knew it was the dragon.
00:31:29My death is confirmed.
00:31:31As soon as I landed,

00:31:45What do you want?

00:31:49He breathed more heavily,
00:31:50and the damp heat
00:31:51of his sweat reached me.
00:31:52You smell good.
00:31:54His hands were burning
00:31:55against my skin,
00:31:56moving slowly,
00:31:57relentlessly.
00:31:58Don't stop.
00:31:59I don't want to die cold.
00:32:06The dragon fulfilled my last wish.
00:32:12Let decay halt.
00:32:14Let suffering be sealed.
00:32:15Let blood returns to its old law.
00:32:17Let the heart's fire burn steady once more.
00:32:20Healing's separation.
00:32:22You're back.
00:32:23Is that snake boy
00:32:24really worth dying for?
00:32:26Father,
00:32:27mother,
00:32:28I want to marry Aldric.
00:32:29I want to take the dragon.
00:32:31What?
00:32:32I let them settle,
00:32:34then told them the past life
00:32:35as though it had been a dream.
00:32:36This time,
00:32:36I want to take a different road.
00:32:38But Aldric,
00:32:38that road isn't a good one.
00:32:40No creature's come back
00:32:40from a dragon's side alive.
00:32:42Kalem doesn't want me.
00:32:43And if none of us go,
00:32:45Aldric will not simply
00:32:46let our family alone.
00:32:47I had my own fears.
00:32:48In my past life,
00:32:49Sarah had escaped
00:32:50the dragon's den.
00:32:50The dragon's wrath
00:32:51consumed my entire family.
00:32:53I couldn't follow that path.
00:32:54Perhaps if I don't be pregnant,
00:32:55father and mother
00:32:57had barely left
00:32:58when Kalem appeared
00:32:59in my doorway.
00:32:59A bottle in his hand.
00:33:00The wound medicine
00:33:01from the Serpent Clan.
00:33:02He was about to apply medicine
00:33:04to my wound,
00:33:05but I hedged his touch.
00:33:06The curse is broken.
00:33:09But I can't marry you.
00:33:10I can't watch Sarah
00:33:11walk into danger
00:33:11and do nothing.
00:33:13What are you planning to do?
00:33:15He didn't answer.
00:33:16Probably afraid I'd interfere.
00:33:18On the morning of the wedding,
00:33:19I dressed early.
00:33:21The gown was a mix
00:33:22of red and white.
00:33:22Red as blood,
00:33:23white as snow.
00:33:24As in the past life,
00:33:25a boat was prepared
00:33:26filled with pearls,
00:33:27mermanes' tears.
00:33:28It looked less like
00:33:29a wedding procession
00:33:30and more like
00:33:30a ritual for sacrifice.
00:33:32I climbed into the boat.
00:33:34The drums and horns started.
00:33:36I put on the white veil
00:33:37and looked exactly like Sarah.
00:33:43Sarah, come with me now.
00:33:46It was Kalium.
00:34:00Boss, your seat's all set up.
00:34:03Nice place you got here.
00:34:05Excuse me.
00:34:06Excuse me.
00:34:11Oh, sorry.
00:34:13Sorry.
00:34:13Watch where you're going.
00:34:14Get the hell out.
00:34:16She's cute.
00:34:23Let's hear it for tonight's winner,
00:34:26Titan.
00:34:28Any challengers want in?
00:34:30Tonight's final winner
00:34:31gets a $100,000 prize
00:34:34and
00:34:35a special reward.
00:34:41Let go of me.
00:34:43I'm just here for the cleaning.
00:34:44I'm not your prize.
00:34:45Let go.
00:34:45Your creditor said
00:34:46you're worth $10,000.
00:34:48This clears everything
00:34:49didn't he tell you?
00:34:51No one told me anything.
00:34:53Just let me go.
00:34:55Logan,
00:34:56I remember you had a rule
00:34:57no women are kids, right?
00:34:58So what's now?
00:35:07I haven't been keeping
00:35:08a close eye on this place.
00:35:10That's on me.
00:35:12Little pump thinks
00:35:13he can break my rules.
00:35:22Wait from over there
00:35:22for a moment.
00:35:37You want to thank me?
00:35:39And be a good girl
00:35:40for me tonight.
00:35:41What do you mean?
00:35:43He said the winner
00:35:44gets the prize, right?
00:35:45So tonight the money
00:35:46is yours
00:35:46and you're mine.
00:35:54Boss, I'm sorry.
00:35:56Forgive me, please.
00:35:58Since when did I allow
00:35:59my club to put women
00:36:00up as fucking trophies?
00:36:02You must be tired of living.
00:36:04Get rid of him.
00:36:04Please, boss.
00:36:05Boss, don't do this.
00:36:09Come down here.
00:36:14You're coming with me tonight.
00:36:16I can't.
00:36:18I...
00:36:18Relax.
00:36:19I'll be gentle.
00:36:22You're the boss here.
00:36:23You can have any woman you want.
00:36:25I'm nobody.
00:36:27Just let me go.
00:36:29Scared?
00:36:30If you're scared,
00:36:31go back to school.
00:36:32Stay away from places like this.
00:36:33Shh.
00:36:34You shouldn't be in here.
00:36:50Aria Bennett,
00:36:52ten grand for your first night
00:36:53is a damn good price.
00:36:55Who the hell do you think you are?
00:36:57Acting all high and mighty.
00:36:58You planning on never paying me back?
00:37:00I promised I'd pay you back.
00:37:02Just give me more time, please.
00:37:04Three days.
00:37:05You don't come up with ten grand.
00:37:07I'm showing up at your school
00:37:08and making sure you get kicked out.
00:37:16So tonight,
00:37:17the money is yours
00:37:18and you're mine.
00:37:24I can't drop him.
00:37:26I can't let mom down.
00:37:29And he doesn't seem
00:37:31completely evil.
00:37:39I thought about it.
00:37:40The ten grand is mine
00:37:41and tonight I'm yours.
00:37:42Did I not scare her enough?
00:37:45Look at you.
00:37:46That little body gonna hold up?
00:37:47Baby, I'm not the gentle type.
00:37:53Go.
00:37:54No.
00:37:55I'll be really good.
00:37:56You can teach me anything.
00:38:05Let's go home.
00:38:12I gave you a chance.
00:38:14You could have left.
00:38:16I need the money.
00:38:17So you weren't forced?
00:38:19For some damn money
00:38:20you'd sleep with anybody, huh?
00:38:22Not everyone's born
00:38:23with a silver spoon like you.
00:38:25I do need the money for college.
00:38:28Someone tricked me
00:38:29into signing some crazy
00:38:30high-interest student loan.
00:38:31It's basically loan shark shit now
00:38:33and I'm just a student.
00:38:35I can only pick up random shifts
00:38:37and side gigs everywhere.
00:38:43Why am I even telling you this?
00:38:44Just shut up
00:38:45and do it already.
00:38:49Little one,
00:38:50what kind of crazy ideas
00:38:52are you cooking up
00:38:52in that head now?
00:38:56You brought me home
00:38:57so I thought you wanted to...
00:39:02I just think
00:39:03you'd make a good personal maid.
00:39:05Personal maid?
00:39:06That way you've got a steady job.
00:39:08You need money, right?
00:39:09I can give you an advance
00:39:10on your paycheck.
00:39:11Really?
00:39:13Of course.
00:39:14You're still in school
00:39:14so you stay here on weekends.
00:39:16The rest of the time
00:39:17you go back to campus.
00:39:21Sir,
00:39:22you can't keep eating
00:39:22cold stuff for breakfast.
00:39:24Have something warm.
00:39:25It's better for your stomach.
00:39:39This is much better.
00:39:48Having this little maid around,
00:39:50things have gotten
00:39:50a lot more.
00:39:52Like...
00:40:07You...
00:40:08Why don't you lock the door?
00:40:11I'm pretty sure
00:40:12this is my house.
00:40:13I didn't see anything.
00:40:24You done looking?
00:40:27I...
00:40:27I didn't see anything.
00:40:28I...
00:40:29I swear.
00:40:30Keep going.
00:40:30I'll just...
00:40:49Water's overflowing.
00:40:51I...
00:40:51I'm not thirsty anymore.
00:40:53Good night, Mr. Perkins.
00:40:55What were you just thinking about?
00:40:57Were you thinking about me?
00:40:58How was the view?
00:40:59Did you like it?
00:41:02Sir,
00:41:03you've...
00:41:03You've got a...
00:41:04Nice body.
00:41:12Hey, Dad.
00:41:13You know that Logan
00:41:14brought a girl home
00:41:14the other night?
00:41:15Drop everything
00:41:16and go see him immediately.
00:41:18Your marriage alliance
00:41:19has to work out.
00:41:20You got that?
00:41:22You got that?
00:41:28Logan,
00:41:29you know our family
00:41:30has already made the deal, right?
00:41:32So, yeah.
00:41:33I'm your fiancé now.
00:41:36Let's talk about
00:41:37how we're gonna do
00:41:37this wedding thing.
00:41:39I'm not gonna marry you.
00:41:41I'm the one calling the shots
00:41:42in the Perkins family now.
00:41:43You don't get to negotiate with me.
00:41:45Got it?
00:41:50Fine.
00:41:55No way I'm getting kicked out
00:41:57of the Vaughn family, Logan.
00:41:58You turn me down?
00:41:59All right, game on.
00:42:01You're gonna beg on me.
00:42:20No way I'm getting kicked out of the Vaughn family, Logan.
00:42:37Hello, Mr. Perkins?
00:42:39Aria, come to my house now.
00:42:43But, sir, it's Monday.
00:42:45I have class tomorrow.
00:42:47Triple pay.
00:42:51Yes, sir.
00:42:52Your little maid
00:42:53is heading over ASAP.
00:42:55Stop by the store
00:42:56and pick up some stuff first.
00:42:58What do you need, sir?
00:43:02Condoms.
00:43:06Condoms?
00:43:08Why the hell am I playing
00:43:09Delivery Girl
00:43:10for his hookup stuff?
00:43:33Logan, you don't look so good.
00:43:35Let me take you home.
00:43:36Get the fuck out.
00:44:00You thought I brought another woman home?
00:44:01There's no one else.
00:44:06These
00:44:07are for us.
00:44:15Okay.
00:44:29Legs still hurting?
00:44:31You kept whimpering about it all night.
00:44:34I did not.
00:44:36Sure, baby.
00:44:37Whatever you say.
00:44:43I'll get it.
00:44:55What are you doing here?
00:44:57You didn't look well last night
00:44:58and you wouldn't answer my calls.
00:45:00I'm your fiancé.
00:45:01Of course I was worried.
00:45:04He has a fiancé?
00:45:06Then who am I?
00:45:08What was that?
00:45:11Is some thirsty bitch
00:45:12trying to hit on you
00:45:13while I'm not here?
00:45:14Let me see.
00:45:32The museum.
00:45:33And the museum
00:45:34always collects its dues.
00:45:43Three thousand dollars for rent.
00:45:45Ten thousand for the debt collectors.
00:45:48If I don't get this job tonight,
00:45:50I'll be sleeping on the streets tomorrow.
00:45:52People say this place is cursed.
00:45:54They say the night guards
00:45:55never last more than a week.
00:45:58But a thousand dollars a day?
00:46:00For that kind of money,
00:46:01I don't care if the devil himself
00:46:03is inside.
00:46:15Hello?
00:46:16Is anyone here?
00:46:17I'm Ryan Carter.
00:46:19I'm here for the
00:46:19The Night Guard interview.
00:46:26Ryan Carter.
00:46:2728 years old,
00:46:28a former reconstructive artist
00:46:29for the deceased.
00:46:31Impressive steady hands,
00:46:32but an even more impressive
00:46:33debt profile.
00:46:34I didn't know a night guard position
00:46:36required a full background check
00:46:37on my finances.
00:46:38At the number nine museum,
00:46:39we don't care about your past,
00:46:40your degree,
00:46:41or your dignity.
00:46:41We only care if you can survive the night.
00:46:43The pay is one thousand dollars per shift,
00:46:45including room and board.
00:46:46Are you still interested?
00:46:46For a thousand dollars a day,
00:46:47I'd go graveyard in hell.
00:46:48Show me where to sign.
00:46:51Sign at the bottom.
00:46:53But remember,
00:46:54once your name is on this paper,
00:46:56there is no turning back.
00:46:59The contract protects the museum,
00:47:00and the museum always collects its dues.
00:47:03What the?
00:47:04What kind of trick is this?
00:47:06Where is the contract?
00:47:07It's not a trick, Mr. Carter.
00:47:09The contract has been sealed
00:47:10within the museum's boundary.
00:47:11From this moment on,
00:47:12you are bound to this place
00:47:13from midnight till dawn.
00:47:14If you try to leave
00:47:14before six in the morning,
00:47:15the breach of contract fee
00:47:16will cost you your entire life.
00:47:18Welcome to the number nine museum.
00:47:19Your shift starts now.
00:47:21Read the rules carefully, God.
00:47:23If you want to see tomorrow's sunrise,
00:47:24do not break them.
00:47:33Let's see what kind of game
00:47:34they're playing here.
00:47:35Rule number one.
00:47:36Duty hours are strictly
00:47:38from midnight to six in the morning.
00:47:39Do not enter the building
00:47:41during the day
00:47:41under any circumstances.
00:47:51Why only at night?
00:47:53What's so dangerous
00:47:54about the daytime here?
00:47:55Rule number two.
00:47:56If you notice the eyes
00:47:57of the tricolor guardian beast moving,
00:48:00cover its head
00:48:00with the red cloth immediately.
00:48:02Do not look directly
00:48:03into its eyes.
00:48:04Cover its head?
00:48:05It's a statue.
00:48:06How could its eyes move?
00:48:10Rule number three.
00:48:11If you hear crying
00:48:13from the bleeding jade hairpin,
00:48:14pretend to be death.
00:48:15Do not respond
00:48:16or look around.
00:48:19Rule number four.
00:48:20If the headless bronze warrior
00:48:21demands its head,
00:48:22throw a mannequin head to it,
00:48:24then lock the workshop door
00:48:25immediately.
00:48:26This doesn't look like
00:48:27a security guard rule book at all.
00:48:28It reads more like
00:48:29a survival guide.
00:48:31Who?
00:48:32Who's there?
00:48:33Show yourself.
00:48:48Those strange rules.
00:48:51They were real.
00:48:58God.
00:49:16Control your breathing, Ryan.
00:49:17You've seen worse things
00:49:18in the morgue.
00:49:19This is just an illusion.
00:49:20It has to be.
00:49:27The red cloth!
00:49:28I need it now!
00:49:30The red cloth.
00:49:31Where did they put
00:49:32the red cloth?
00:49:41There it is.
00:49:42Just ten feet away.
00:49:44Move your legs, damn it!
00:49:53You want my life?
00:49:55I still have $10,000
00:49:56in debt to pay.
00:49:57I'm not dying in this
00:49:58graveyard.
00:50:00Graveyard.
00:50:15God.
00:50:18Just one more step.
00:50:19I can reach it.
00:50:39No!
00:50:43I won't let a statue
00:50:45control my destiny.
00:50:47This is my shift.
00:50:49And I make the rules here!
00:51:00Get back into the dark!
00:51:03No!
00:51:09I did it!
00:51:11I actually stopped it!
00:51:32I did it!
00:51:44This piece of history is tearing itself apart.
00:51:47The energy inside is too unstable.
00:51:54Damn it, old habits die hard.
00:51:57I don't know what kind of curse is on you,
00:52:00but as long as I'm on duty,
00:52:04everything in this room stays whole.
00:52:13What is this?
00:52:17What is happening to my hands?
00:52:29Almost there. I can feel it.
00:52:31Just a little more energy, and these cracks will seal themselves.
00:52:35It'll be whole again.
00:52:39This energy. My senses are changing.
00:52:41I can actually feel the history embedded in these walls.
00:53:04I can feel it. I can feel it.
00:53:12And my duty is to ensure everything stays in its proper place.
00:53:16The pain that tormented me for centuries is gone.
00:53:18Your divine light has restored my pride.
00:53:20From this night forward, your enemies shall face the wrath of my illusions.
00:53:27An extra $10,000 has been deposited into your account.
00:53:31Outstanding balance, $12,000.
00:53:33A $10,000 bonus?
00:53:35For a single repair job?
00:53:38A $10,000 bonus?
00:53:44Master, guide it with the divine power I have belowed upon you.
00:53:47Let it become your strength.
00:53:50This energy. My senses are changing.
00:53:53I can actually feel the history embedded in these walls.
00:53:56That is the residual power of the ancient seal.
00:53:59Every time you fix a broken soul in this sanctuary, your own spirit will grow stronger.
00:54:04$10,000 and enhanced abilities.
00:54:07The Sumpfineris smiled.
00:54:09This dangerous night shift might be the best decision I've ever made.
00:54:13Let's see what other secrets are waiting for me in the dark.
00:54:16He didn't just walk out.
00:54:17Something forced him to leave this behind.
00:54:23Should your life be placed in Beryl, I will appear once more.
00:54:57Let's see.
00:54:59J-A-C-O-B.
00:55:03Jacob?
00:55:03That was the name of the previous night card.
00:55:06He didn't just walk out.
00:55:08Something forced him to leave this behind.
00:55:11J-A-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B
00:55:15-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O
00:55:17-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C
00:55:21-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B
00:55:27-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O
00:55:34-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C-O-B-C
00:55:58The Bleeding Yade Hairpin
00:56:00The third rule is about to test me.
00:56:05Your tricks don't work on me.
00:56:06I've heard enough dead people's silence to care about your noise.
00:56:14Why did you leave me?
00:56:17Why does everyone abandon me?
00:56:20Look at me.
00:56:22Please, just look at me once.
00:56:40Rule number three.
00:56:41If you hear crying from the Bleeding Yade Hairpin, pretend to be deaf.
00:56:45Do not respond or look around.
00:57:03You hear me?
00:57:04I know you can hear me.
00:57:05Turn around!
00:57:06Look at what they did to me!
00:57:08Baby!
00:57:08Oh!
00:57:09Get to sleep!
00:57:10Ha ha ha!
00:57:13Get to sleep!
00:57:16Get to sleep!
00:57:26Go élect!
00:57:30Get to sleep!
00:57:39Your tricks don't work on me. I've heard enough dead people's silence to care about your noise.
00:57:50Thank you, my lord.
00:57:56Its energy is collapsing. If that dark mark reaches the top, the spirit inside will destroy itself.
00:58:08I won't watch you shatter. Let the light mend what time has broken.
00:58:27Thank you, my lord. The centuries of loneliness and pain nearly drove me to madness. Your warm light saved my
00:58:33soul.
00:58:34I was just doing my job. As long as you follow the rules of this museum, you will find peace
00:58:38here.
00:58:38From this moment on, my spirit belongs to you. Whenever you need to perceive the hidden hidden dangers in the
00:58:43dark, my light will guide your vision.
00:58:48Another $15,000 bonus. My account balance is now $27,000.
00:58:53Your spiritual power has grown again, master. You are no longer an ordinary human.
00:59:04$27,000 in two days, and my sensory abilities are accelerating.
00:59:08This night shift is turning me into a completely different man.
00:59:15My body's stronger than before.
00:59:17Now let's see what else this museum can throw at me before sunrise.
00:59:38Home sweet home.
00:59:40All right, big guy. I can take it from here.
00:59:52Today, after seven years in the dragon slumber, your sister returns to us as a grand mage.
00:59:58She will be the pride of the O'Brien name, the future of our race.
01:00:06Oops.
01:00:11Welcome home, my lady.
01:00:14Sarah? You're supposed to be a grand mage.
01:00:21How did you...
01:00:24Forget it. I've stopped expecting miracles from you.
01:00:26Just don't ruin your betrothal to Prince Leon.
01:00:29The betrothal? Give me a break.
01:00:32The dragon slumber was miserable enough.
01:00:35I didn't come back to be some prince's broodmare.
01:00:38I'm back to milk you guys dry.
01:00:43Have you forgotten what they did to mother?
01:00:51Look, if mom's up there watching,
01:00:53I'm pretty sure she'd rather see me happy than dead.
01:00:56So for her sake, I'm letting it go.
01:01:02Letting it go? Wow.
01:01:04So the great hope of House O'Brien is just a spineless little bitch.
01:01:07Perfect.
01:01:09Put that on and show us a good time.
01:01:11If you're good enough,
01:01:12maybe I'll hook you up with the Hawthorne heir,
01:01:14you know, one of the five great mage families.
01:01:17Could be your big break.
01:01:18As his personal toy.
01:01:22Insult her again,
01:01:23and I'll cut you down where you stand.
01:01:35Die.
01:01:40By my true name,
01:01:42I command the river of time.
01:01:44Halt.
01:01:56By my true name,
01:01:58I consign you to oblivion.
01:02:00Body and soul.
01:02:01Erased.
01:02:16What the?
01:02:17Where'd he go?
01:02:25What the?
01:02:26God, that was so scary.
01:02:28Are you guys okay?
01:02:29Is anyone hurt?
01:02:31That magical power just now.
01:02:35It was massive.
01:02:46I take one nap,
01:02:47and the house turns into a war zone?
01:02:50Serafina.
01:02:51Seven years in the dragon's slumber,
01:02:53and you come back looking like this?
01:02:55Sis?
01:02:56Where is your magic?
01:02:57You didn't bring back a single spark.
01:03:01Enough.
01:03:02To erase a living man from existence,
01:03:04in all of the continent,
01:03:06only that one person possesses such terrifying arcana.
01:03:10The dragon's sovereign,
01:03:11Silver Flame Witch.
01:03:12I've heard the rumors about her.
01:03:14Three years ago,
01:03:15she soloed the entire undead catastrophe
01:03:17in the northern wastes.
01:03:18Last month,
01:03:19she literally tamed a nine-headed sea dragon.
01:03:21If our family could access
01:03:23even a fraction of that power.
01:03:25Serafina.
01:03:26Seven years have passed
01:03:27since your mother was murdered.
01:03:29Look at yourself.
01:03:30Is this how you plan to make them pay?
01:03:35Mom's death was a setup
01:03:36by the five great houses.
01:03:37Every lead is a dead end.
01:03:38I have to play dumb now,
01:03:39or the real killer
01:03:40will never show his face.
01:03:45I'm scared.
01:03:47I can't risk my life like that.
01:03:50You.
01:03:52I've spoke on with the palace.
01:03:54Prince Leon,
01:03:55he's willing to marry you.
01:03:57The wedding's set for next month.
01:04:03Prince Leon is literally
01:04:04the most eligible bachelor in the kingdom.
01:04:06And Serafina?
01:04:07He's out of her league.
01:04:09She comes with our textile empire.
01:04:11And the three eastern territories.
01:04:13She gets the prince,
01:04:14the family fortune,
01:04:16and for what?
01:04:16Being useless?
01:04:18This is bullshit.
01:04:19No.
01:04:21What did you just say?
01:04:23I said no.
01:04:23I'm not marrying him.
01:04:25I'm not marrying anyone.
01:04:26If I have to get married,
01:04:27why not keep it in the family?
01:04:28My brothers are way better catches anyway.
01:04:34Serafina!
01:04:36Prince Leon took down
01:04:37a full-grown griffon
01:04:38when he was still a teenager.
01:04:40You think other families
01:04:41aren't dying
01:04:41to get their daughters
01:04:42in front of him?
01:04:44You're marrying him.
01:04:46That's it.
01:04:53Sis,
01:04:54if you're gonna marry Prince Leon,
01:04:55you'll need to at least
01:04:56have some magic, right?
01:04:59The Silver Flame Witch
01:05:00can literally erase someone
01:05:01with a thought.
01:05:01And you,
01:05:02you can't even cast a basic spell.
01:05:04That's gotta be awkward for you.
01:05:07Oh my god!
01:05:08You okay?
01:05:09You can't even walk through the house
01:05:10without eating it.
01:05:12What's next?
01:05:12Gonna throw the king's dinner
01:05:13in his lap?
01:05:14Anyway,
01:05:15I'm kinda curious
01:05:16what the big deal is
01:05:17with this prince.
01:05:18I mean,
01:05:19he's gotta be pretty hot
01:05:20to be worth all this drama, right?
01:05:22You?
01:05:23Marry the prince?
01:05:24In your dreams?
01:05:25Go to hell, bitch!
01:05:27That marriage belongs to me!
01:05:32Storm Dragon.
01:05:34Loud.
01:05:34Dramatic.
01:05:35Not much actual magic, though.
01:05:36And he can't even handle this.
01:05:55Can't blow my cover.
01:06:02Wow.
01:06:03Can't handle a dragon?
01:06:04Can't handle a few assassins?
01:06:11Just three?
01:06:15I unmake you.
01:06:17Flashback.
01:06:18Your turn.
01:06:21Wait, wait!
01:06:22You could do magic?
01:06:23She said you were just
01:06:24some useless noble brat.
01:06:26She?
01:06:27Who's she?
01:06:28Elena Gray!
01:06:29She paid us to kill you!
01:06:31Please, please,
01:06:31just let me go!
01:06:33Alright.
01:06:34I could let you live.
01:06:36Depends on your choice.
01:06:37Blade or candy?
01:06:39The candy?
01:06:41Playing it safe?
01:06:42Can't trust that.
01:06:43You die.
01:06:44No, wait!
01:06:45The blade!
01:06:46I meant the blade!
01:06:48Yikes.
01:06:50Choosing violence?
01:06:51That's not much better.
01:06:52Neither!
01:06:53I choose neither!
01:06:54That works, right?
01:06:56Classic rebel move.
01:06:57Can't have you
01:06:58plotting something later.
01:07:01Fine!
01:07:02Both!
01:07:03I picked both!
01:07:04Greedy bastard.
01:07:06Knew it.
01:07:07Bye now.
01:07:07You die!
01:07:07Go!
01:07:08Go!
01:07:08Go!
01:07:11Go!
01:07:11Go!
01:07:12Go!
01:07:12Go!
01:07:13Go!
01:07:14My grandmother told me to come meet you.
01:07:20Your highness, I hope there hasn't been a misunderstanding here.
01:07:24You think you can cancel it just like that?
01:07:26The legendary mage, Dragon Sovereign, Hymn of the Heavens, Sorcerer, Flame Witch!
01:07:31Jesus.
01:07:32That's a lot of people.
01:07:34She was fighting three frost dragons under the moonlight.
01:07:36Silver fire everywhere.
01:07:38Moving like some kind of war goddess.
01:07:40Well, I don't think the Silver Flame Witch would even spare a glance at you.
01:07:44Your highness, the Silver Flame Witch is...
01:07:46Nobody's actually seen her in years.
01:07:48Maybe chasing ghosts isn't the smartest move when you've got a perfectly good match right here.
01:07:51As for your sister, maybe aim lower.
01:07:54You piece of...
01:07:55Chill.
01:07:56Who cares?
01:07:57Honestly, you guys are way hotter than him anyway.
01:08:06Still no sign of the O'Briens?
01:08:08They're basically a joke now, anyway.
01:08:10They wouldn't even qualify for the Dragon Taming Championship this year.
01:08:14Right then.
01:08:15Let's get this show started.
01:08:17Starting without us?
01:08:18That's rude.
01:08:22Starting without House O'Brien?
01:08:24Interesting.
01:08:25Didn't realize we'd become so...
01:08:27Irrelevant.
01:08:28Lady Victoria, no offense.
01:08:30Intended.
01:08:31But the Dragon Taming Championship waits for no one.
01:08:33We can't delay the entire event just because your granddaughter is too nervous to participate.
01:08:38I heard she spent seven years in the dragon slumber and still can't manage a simple light spell.
01:08:44So what's she going to do today?
01:08:46Cheer from the sidelines?
01:08:50Look, the Dragon Championship isn't some charity event where everyone gets a participation trophy.
01:08:55But hey, since I've already tamed the Storm Dragon, maybe you can stay and learn something.
01:09:04The Lords are absolutely right.
01:09:05The O'Brien would be honored to sign over the tax revenues from our two eastern estates as a gesture
01:09:10of goodwill.
01:09:11Just please don't make my sister embarrass herself out there.
01:09:13Elena!
01:09:14Who gave you the right?
01:09:16Grandma, I'm just looking out for the family.
01:09:18Two little estates to get all five great families in our corner?
01:09:22You should be thanking me.
01:09:23Now that's what I call knowing your place.
01:09:26Elena gets it.
01:09:27Meanwhile, her sister's out here being completely useless.
01:09:30You know what?
01:09:31Let's go all in.
01:09:33All the tax avenues, take it all.
01:09:35Just please don't make us participate in today's Dragon Championship.
01:09:40See?
01:09:41I just saved the family from complete social suicide with one smart move.
01:09:45If she got in that arena, we'd be a laughingstock for decades.
01:09:59Careful, sis.
01:10:00Talk too much and your mouth might rot right off.
01:10:04Well, championship rules are clear.
01:10:06Every house sends someone to tame a dragon.
01:10:08Since the O'Brien heir is useless, maybe she can be today's entertainment instead.
01:10:12I love that idea.
01:10:15I'd be more than happy to break her in properly.
01:10:20That's enough!
01:10:21Prince Leon is engaged to Serafina.
01:10:23He won't let this happen.
01:10:27Your Highness, you're going to defend her.
01:10:30No.
01:10:30I just want to say, I called off the engagement yesterday.
01:10:35She's beneath me, honestly.
01:10:37Her whole family is.
01:10:38So go ahead, do whatever you want with her.
01:10:40I don't give a damn.
01:10:44You narcissistic piece of shit.
01:10:46Like we'd ever want you in our family anyway.
01:10:48Oh, really?
01:10:49Are you saying that your broke-ass house is going to reject the prince who just soloed a storm dragon?
01:10:53That's rich.
01:10:55Your Highness, you've tamed the storm dragon?
01:10:59Yesterday, broke the thing like a wild horse.
01:11:03Want proof?
01:11:16You tamed it?
01:11:19Listen up, everyone.
01:11:21I've got two big announcements.
01:11:22First, Serafina O'Brien and I are done.
01:11:26Getting engaged to her was literally the worst decision I've ever made.
01:11:32Second, I'm holding out for someone who's actually worth my time.
01:11:36The Silver Flame Witch.
01:11:39Pathetic losers like Serafina.
01:11:41They're only good for one thing.
01:11:43Dragon Snacks!
01:11:54Over my dead body!
01:11:56And me.
01:11:57Come on, you ugly bastard!
01:12:16What was this?
01:12:18She's the Silver Flame Witch.
01:12:20I can't move.
01:12:21Me.
01:12:22Neither.
01:12:24This power.
01:12:25Is she really the Silver Flame Witch?
01:12:26She came because she saw me taming the dragon.
01:12:28She's totally into me.
01:12:29She's here to...
01:12:51Behold the Witch.
01:12:53Kneel or burn.
01:12:55I can't move.
01:12:56I can't move.
01:12:57I can't move.
01:12:59I can't move.
01:12:59I can't move.
01:13:00I can't move.
01:13:01I can't move.
