00:00:00I lay on the stone bed of the sacred infirmary, trembling violently.
00:00:05Every doctor in the Wind Kingdom was on edge for my sake.
00:00:09Yet my husband, Lord Ronan, was nowhere to be seen.
00:00:15I was used to his coldness.
00:00:18But at this moment, having gambled my life and burned my manna to bear this child,
00:00:25the ridiculous shred of hope still flickered in my heart years ago.
00:00:28When I was in a desperate situation, the young Ronan saved my life.
00:00:36That kindness became my lifelong obsession.
00:00:39But he had no idea that I was the sole pure-blooded daughter of the High Elfin King.
00:00:48When I met with disaster in my youth, I was rescued by him,
00:00:53the lord of a mere mid-tier Elfin Kingdom.
00:00:57To repay that debt, I concealed my supreme identity,
00:01:02even using a forbidden ritual to seal away the radiant wings of nature
00:01:07on my back that symbolized supreme divine authority.
00:01:12I willingly became an ordinary female elf with no background,
00:01:17marrying into his territory.
00:01:19Under a false name for years, I remained gentle and submissive,
00:01:24using my own pure-blooded manna to nourish his family,
00:01:28all for a sliver of his affection.
00:01:35Yet, I could never warm a heart of stone.
00:01:38In Ronan's heart, there was only ever room for his first love, Vanessa.
00:01:48The agony intensified as the mana and bloodlines within my body surged in a violent reverse flow.
00:01:56But I held on to my last strength.
00:01:58Yet, all that arrived was a cold, ruthless message from a guard.
00:02:04My lady, the lord is busy with official matters and cannot come.
00:02:08Please deliver the child on your own, and do not delay the lord's business.
00:02:12At that moment, a self-deprecating laugh escaped my lips.
00:02:16This life of mine and the child in my womb never mattered to him.
00:02:21After an entire day and night of deathly struggle,
00:02:24a soft, fragile wile finally shattered the silence of the infirmary.
00:02:28This was my daughter, a precious treasure,
00:02:33bought at the cost of all my manna.
00:02:36I named her Iris.
00:02:39At that exact moment, my personal guard rushed in to report.
00:02:43My lady!
00:02:44The lord has finished his external affairs,
00:02:46and has returned to the main manna in his unicorn sacred carriage.
00:02:50Within my deadland heart, a tiny spark suddenly ignited.
00:02:54I instinctively assumed that no matter how cold or selfish he might be,
00:02:57at least he would at least want to look at his newborn flesh and blood,
00:03:00forcing my exhausted, severely depleted body up.
00:03:03I carefully held my daughter in her swaddling clothes,
00:03:05making my way toward the promenade of the main temple to see my husband.
00:03:09But just as I reached the promenade and looked through the lush courtyard of the sacred elven tree,
00:03:14I froze instantly, the blood in my veins turning to ice.
00:03:18My husband stood there, tall and elegant in his black robes,
00:03:23and right beside him stood a woman, the first love he had yearned for and never forgotten.
00:03:27It was Vanessa.
00:03:28What struck me like a bolt from the blue was that in front of them stood a little elfin boy,
00:03:32roughly three years old,
00:03:33with long pointed ears and a pair of eyes that flashed with a cunning disguised as inonence.
00:03:39Countless absurd possibilities flashed through my mind.
00:03:42My hands shook uncontrollably from shock and rage,
00:03:45but I forced myself to stand my ground,
00:03:48enduring the tearing pain of the postpartum mana reverse flow.
00:03:51Vanessa looked up and spotted me, her mouth curving into a flitting, provocative smirk.
00:03:56She intentionally leaned closer into Ronan's embrace, her voice soft yet dripping with malice.
00:04:02Ronan, so she's the one who stole my man and my title while I was away?
00:04:07Tenderness instantly flooded Ronan's eyes as he wrapped his arm around her.
00:04:11He comforted her softly, even placing a lingering kiss upon her forehead,
00:04:17right in front of me.
00:04:19When he turned to me, his tone was piercingly cold and dismissive.
00:04:24Think nothing of it, Vanessa.
00:04:26You are my true love.
00:04:29I have never loved her.
00:04:31She is nothing more than a tool to manage the tribe.
00:04:36Ronan, look closely.
00:04:37This is the daughter I just risked my life to give you.
00:04:41Look at her, she was just born.
00:04:42Look how beautiful she is.
00:04:43Ronan cast a brief, indifferent glance downward.
00:04:46In his eyes, there was not a shred of paternal emotion, only naked disgust and annoyance.
00:04:51He swiftly averted his gaze, as though looking at his own flesh and blood for even a second longer
00:04:56would defile his relationship with Vanessa.
00:04:58Vanessa's gaze locked onto the infant in my arms, a flash of venom crossing her eyes.
00:05:04Promptly, she lifted her pitiful face, gazing up at Ronan with a trembling sob.
00:05:09Ronan, she has already born a child for the tribe.
00:05:13Then what about our Jasper?
00:05:14He followed me, wandering among foreign kingdoms, and suffered for three long years.
00:05:19He is your eldest son, the future heir of the Wind Kingdom.
00:05:23Looking at that three-year-old elfin child clinging to their side,
00:05:27I felt as if my soul had been struck by lightning.
00:05:30It turned out that my suspicion was actually the truth.
00:05:33What exactly is going on here?
00:05:36Ronan looked down at me, entirely devoid of guilt, and let out a righteous, cold snot.
00:05:43Good, you saw it. Saves me the trouble of explaining.
00:05:45When Vanessa left three years ago, she was already pregnant with my child!
00:05:48For these three years, she raised Jasper alone among foreign kingdoms, enduring endless grievance.
00:05:52Now that she has returned, I must make it them properly,
00:05:54restoring everything that belongs to them a thousand times over!
00:05:58I stared at the picture-perfect family of three before me,
00:06:02as a boundless despair swallowed me like a tidal wave.
00:06:07Just as I was on the verge of collapsing,
00:06:10Ronan's mother, Elodie, walked over hoarsely, flanked by attendants.
00:06:14Three-year-old Jasper was incredibly sweet-talked, twitching his delicate little elven ears.
00:06:19He immediately ran over on his short legs and tightly hugged Elodie's leg.
00:06:24Grandma! I finally get to see you!
00:06:28Mother said you are the most benevolent and noble elder in the entire kingdom!
00:06:36Elodie, who was extremely superstitious about bloodlines and male esters, melted instantly.
00:06:42She gathered Jasper into her arms, treating him like her ultimate treasure.
00:06:47Seizing the moment, Vanessa leaned into Ronan's embrace, weeping with feigned grievance.
00:06:53It's all my fault! If I had been stronger!
00:06:57Your perfect grandson wouldn't have spent three years starving in exile!
00:07:04Elodie's heart ached for them.
00:07:06She snapped her head around to look at me with my deathly pale face,
00:07:10and my weakly wailing daughter, her eyes instantly turning into daggers of piercing disgust.
00:07:17You nearly died just to produce a magicless, useless girl?
00:07:25What a pathetic waste!
00:07:27Pack up that defective brat and drag yourselves to the Wythen Tower at the border right now!
00:07:33I won't let you bring your bad luck near my precious grandson!
00:07:39Ronan, Iris is your flesh and blood, too.
00:07:44How can you just let them trample all over us?
00:07:48But Ronan's face remained completely indifferent, his tone dripping with disdain.
00:07:54Mother is right.
00:07:56Jasper is the future, and hope of Wind Kingdom.
00:08:01The daughter you gave birth to has a dull divine mark.
00:08:06She is utterly unworthy of living in the main manor.
00:08:12Going to the Tower is your only option.
00:08:16Vanessa threw a provocative glance my way, squeezing her throat to spit out the most poison words.
00:08:22Loser.
00:08:24Since you possess no noble bloodline...
00:08:26Staying here will only bring you self-inflicted humiliation.
00:08:32Looking at their hypocritical, I clenched my fingers, and the very last ember of gratitude within me was completely extinguished.
00:08:41The cold wind wowed through the withered tower, a place that never saw a single ray of moonlight.
00:08:48I held my frail little daughter close, huddling in the corner of the freezing stone wall.
00:08:54Having barely survived childbirth, and with my manor completely burned out,
00:09:00my chest felt as if it were being torn apart.
00:09:03By ten thousand winds, just when I was completely helpless and desperate,
00:09:10the heavy wooden door of the tower was suddenly pushed open,
00:09:14and Ronan walked in, silhouetted against the light.
00:09:19In that single instant, a ridiculous shred of hope
00:09:23actually flared up once more in my deadland heart.
00:09:28He was the child's father.
00:09:30Had he finally softened, coming to bring some mana,
00:09:33to ward off the cold?
00:09:36Or to take my daughter and me back?
00:09:38Forcing my mana-depleased body up,
00:09:41my pale lips trembled.
00:09:43Did you come to see Iris?
00:09:45She caught a chill,
00:09:47and the divine mark on her forehead
00:09:49is growing weaker and weaker.
00:09:52Please, save her.
00:09:53But before I could even get close,
00:09:56Ronan took a disgusted step backward.
00:09:59Serafana.
00:10:00As if the child and I were some kind of thing.
00:10:02I only came here to warn you.
00:10:05Stay in your withered tower quietly.
00:10:08Sign this declaration,
00:10:09relinquishing your rights as the primary mistress,
00:10:10and don't try any clever tricks.
00:10:13I felt as though I had been struck by lightning,
00:10:15taking a shocked step back.
00:10:17I stared firmly at the man
00:10:20I had loved with my very life
00:10:22for three years.
00:10:23You came all the way
00:10:25to this desolate place,
00:10:27not to cast a single glance
00:10:29at your own daughter,
00:10:30but merely to force me
00:10:32to give up my position.
00:10:34And to warn me?
00:10:36Ronan let out a cold laugh,
00:10:38his eyes filled with arrogance,
00:10:40and a fierce protectiveness
00:10:42for Vanessa.
00:10:43Vanessa is kind-hearted.
00:10:46And she suffered terribly.
00:10:49While wandering among foreign kingdoms
00:10:50with our child.
00:10:52I will not allow anyone
00:10:53to disrupt Jasper's upbringing.
00:10:57I am warning you.
00:10:59Put away that jealous face of yours.
00:11:02Stay where you belong.
00:11:03And do not provoke Vanessa and her son
00:11:06if I discover that you dare
00:11:08to secretly harm them.
00:11:11Or attempt to steal the resources
00:11:13that belong to Jasper.
00:11:16I will absolutely show you no mercy!
00:11:19In the darkness,
00:11:20my daughter let out a faint,
00:11:22protesting cry.
00:11:23Ronan, however,
00:11:24did not bother to spare even a glance
00:11:26from the corner of his eye.
00:11:27He turned and departed resolutely,
00:11:29the heavy iron door slamming shut
00:11:31with a resounding thud.
00:11:33Holding my child,
00:11:34I collapsed into the freezing mud,
00:11:36laughing at my own stupidity.
00:11:38He came only to warn me.
00:11:40The night sky hung low
00:11:42as the freezing wind raged
00:11:44through the dead silence
00:11:45of the withered tower,
00:11:47preventing even a single
00:11:48slimmer of moonlight
00:11:49from penetrating the darkness.
00:11:51I had burned through
00:11:52the vast majority of my mana
00:11:53during childbirth.
00:11:54The magic within my body
00:11:56had completely dried up.
00:11:57I could only hold
00:11:58my little princess tightly
00:11:59in my arms,
00:12:00using my own faint body wheat
00:12:01to provide warmth for my infant,
00:12:03who was running a continuous low fever
00:12:05inside her swaddling clothes.
00:12:06Yet at this very moment,
00:12:09inside the Wind Kingdom's main temple,
00:12:11there was a completely different scene
00:12:13of brilliant lights,
00:12:15music,
00:12:16and extravagant luxury.
00:12:17Vanessa and her son
00:12:18sat on a soft couch
00:12:19covered in the rarest
00:12:20luminescent beast skins,
00:12:22basking in the attention
00:12:23and adoration
00:12:24of all the high-ranking elves
00:12:25in the kingdom.
00:12:27Three-year-old Jasper
00:12:28fluttered the tiny green elben wings
00:12:30that had just begun
00:12:31to develop on his back.
00:12:32Holding an exquisite
00:12:33elben sacred berry
00:12:34in his hands,
00:12:35his face completely smeared
00:12:37with juice,
00:12:37Elayda sat high
00:12:38upon her throne,
00:12:39grinning from ear to ear,
00:12:41her eyes overflowing
00:12:42with a dotting pride.
00:12:44Watching this warm
00:12:45and harmonious scene,
00:12:46the more Elayda looked
00:12:47at this chubby grandson,
00:12:49the more pleasing
00:12:50he seemed to her eye.
00:12:51Stroking the staff
00:12:52that symbolized her power
00:12:53as the High Priestess,
00:12:54she impatiently turned
00:12:55to prompt my husband,
00:12:56Ronan,
00:12:57who was standing beside her.
00:12:58Ronan,
00:12:59Vanessa and her son
00:13:00have wandered
00:13:01among foreign kingdoms
00:13:02for years,
00:13:03enduring endless hardships.
00:13:05Now my precious eldest grandson
00:13:07is already three years old,
00:13:09and the wind-attributed mana
00:13:10within his body
00:13:11is so abundant.
00:13:13How can he continue
00:13:14to stay in the guest room
00:13:15so illegitimately?
00:13:17Tonight,
00:13:18you must have Vanessa
00:13:19and Jasper
00:13:20officially move
00:13:21into the Lord's main manor,
00:13:23into the bedchambers
00:13:23that rightfully belong
00:13:24to the primary mistress
00:13:26and the heir!
00:13:27Ronan lowered his eyes,
00:13:28looking at Vanessa's
00:13:29adoration-filled face,
00:13:31as she leaned coyly
00:13:32against him,
00:13:33and then at the child,
00:13:34who was sweetly
00:13:35calling him father.
00:13:36The scales in his heart
00:13:37had already tipped completely.
00:13:39Without a shred
00:13:40of hesitation,
00:13:41he nodded his agreement
00:13:42coldly on the spot.
00:13:43Mother is right.
00:13:44The best location
00:13:46in the main manor
00:13:47should naturally be reserved
00:13:48for the heir
00:13:49who truly carries
00:13:50the excellent bloodline
00:13:51of our kingdom.
00:13:52Seeing her son
00:13:53agree so readily,
00:13:54Aloy's face flushed
00:13:55with even more delight.
00:13:56Standing up hauntily
00:13:57while leaning on her staff,
00:13:59she addressed all
00:14:00the tribal high officials
00:14:01present in a grand,
00:14:02supreme tone.
00:14:03Not only that,
00:14:05Wind Kingdom has thrived
00:14:06to this day
00:14:07and our bloodline
00:14:07is supreme.
00:14:09Jasper is exceptionally bright,
00:14:10displaying astonishing
00:14:11magical talent
00:14:12at such a tender age.
00:14:13He deserves the recognition
00:14:14of all kingdoms!
00:14:15I propose that in three days,
00:14:17we hold the most grand
00:14:18and magnificent
00:14:19official announcement
00:14:20celebration
00:14:21for three-year-old Jasper.
00:14:22We shall high-profilely
00:14:24declare him
00:14:24as the primary heir
00:14:26of our Wind Kingdom's future!
00:14:29In three days,
00:14:29Jasper would be declared
00:14:30the primary heir.
00:14:32Following her move
00:14:33into the main manor,
00:14:34Vanessa began to carry herself
00:14:35entirely as the queen
00:14:36of the Wind Kingdom.
00:14:37Dressed in extravagant silks,
00:14:39she glided through the temple
00:14:40flanked by her entourage,
00:14:42soaking in the endless,
00:14:43shallow flattery.
00:14:44Yet a stubborn sliver
00:14:45of anxiety remained
00:14:46buried deep in her chest.
00:14:48Whenever night fell,
00:14:49she would catch Ronin
00:14:49standing on the balcony,
00:14:50staring with a conflicted expression
00:14:52towards that dark,
00:14:53desolate,
00:14:54withered tower.
00:14:54Though he spoke
00:14:55with absolute coldness,
00:14:56subconsciously,
00:14:57he still harbored
00:14:58a faint trace of worry
00:14:59for my baby and me,
00:15:00a worry he refused
00:15:01to admit even to himself.
00:15:03This lingering gaze
00:15:04made Vanessa's jealous
00:15:05and paranoia grow wild.
00:15:07As long as my daughter
00:15:08and I were breathing,
00:15:10her position
00:15:10and Jasper's future
00:15:11would never be safe.
00:15:13An opportunity presented itself
00:15:14sooner than expected.
00:15:15Early this morning,
00:15:17desperate to give
00:15:17my frail daughter
00:15:18a single drop
00:15:18of clean water,
00:15:19my completely helpless self
00:15:21was forced to drag
00:15:22my broken body
00:15:23out of the tower,
00:15:23heading deep into the woods
00:15:25to harvest pure spring water
00:15:26filtered by ancient
00:15:27divine marks.
00:15:28Learning of this,
00:15:29Vanessa's eyes
00:15:29turned ice cold.
00:15:31She knew her moment
00:15:32had arrived.
00:15:33She quietly dismissed
00:15:34the guards
00:15:34around the main manor,
00:15:36taking only a few
00:15:37of her most ruthless
00:15:38disconfidence
00:15:38as she slipped
00:15:39into the dark,
00:15:40abandoned,
00:15:41withered tower.
00:15:42The wooden door
00:15:43creaked open,
00:15:44letting in the piercing chill.
00:15:46Vanessa stepped
00:15:47over the debris,
00:15:48advancing slow pace
00:15:49by slow pace
00:15:50until she stopped
00:15:51right in front
00:15:52of the primitive stone bed.
00:15:54Inside her swaddling clothes,
00:15:55newborn Iris
00:15:56was sleeping soundly.
00:15:57Though her little face
00:15:58was pale,
00:15:59the faint golden divine mark
00:16:01shimmering on her forehead
00:16:02radiated an undeniable
00:16:03nobility and purity,
00:16:04a mark that made
00:16:05Vanessa's eyes burn
00:16:07with pure envy.
00:16:08You pathetic little freak.
00:16:11You think you're worthy
00:16:12of Ronan's blood?
00:16:14If you want to blame anyone,
00:16:16blame your useless mother.
00:16:17The mask of innocence
00:16:19slipped from Vanessa's face,
00:16:21her eyes twisting
00:16:22with pure malice.
00:16:23From her wide sleeve,
00:16:25she slowly pulled out
00:16:26a porcelain vial
00:16:27that emitted
00:16:28an eerie green glow.
00:16:30Inside was a forbidden,
00:16:31lethal toxin
00:16:32she had purchased
00:16:33at an exorgent price
00:16:34from the black market.
00:16:35Soul-eating elixir,
00:16:37specifically designed
00:16:38to dissolve
00:16:39a newborn elf's mana core
00:16:40and cause their soul
00:16:42to rot away
00:16:43inch by inch.
00:16:44With a trembling hand,
00:16:45she popped the cork
00:16:46and violently clamped
00:16:47her fingers
00:16:48over my baby's
00:16:49fragile jaw.
00:16:50The sharp pain
00:16:51forced my sleeping princess
00:16:53to snap her eyes open,
00:16:55letting out a weak,
00:16:56agonizing cry.
00:16:58But Vanessa was
00:16:59entirely unfazed.
00:17:01With a distorted,
00:17:02demonic sneer,
00:17:03she forced the entire
00:17:04bottle of icy,
00:17:05corrosive poison
00:17:06straight down
00:17:06my infant's tender throat.
00:17:08When I returned
00:17:09to the withered tower,
00:17:11thoroughly exhausted
00:17:12and clutching
00:17:13that tiny container
00:17:14of pure spring water
00:17:15tightly to my chest,
00:17:17what greeted me
00:17:18was not the gentle sound
00:17:19of my daughter's breathing,
00:17:20but a deathly silence.
00:17:22My heart skipped a beat
00:17:24and a boundless panic
00:17:26instantly seized me
00:17:28in a death grip.
00:17:30I practically crawled
00:17:31and scrambled my way
00:17:33toward that freezing stone bed.
00:17:37Iris...
00:17:39Mommy is back.
00:17:40The moment my trembling hands
00:17:42pulled back
00:17:43the swaddling clothes,
00:17:44the sight before me
00:17:46caused me to drop
00:17:47into an abyss of ice.
00:17:51Her originally pink little face
00:17:53was now completely white,
00:17:57even faintly tinged
00:17:59with an eerie,
00:18:00sickly green,
00:18:00deathly energy.
00:18:01What truly shattered my soul
00:18:03was that the faint
00:18:05golden elven divine mark
00:18:06on her forehead,
00:18:07which had been flickering softly,
00:18:10was now darkened
00:18:11across a massive area.
00:18:14Iris!
00:18:17Wake up.
00:18:19Look at Mommy.
00:18:21Don't scare Mommy.
00:18:23Sprinting once more
00:18:24toward the Wind Kingdom's infirmary,
00:18:30I slammed the infirmary doors open
00:18:32with immense force.
00:18:35The sitting doctor
00:18:36took one look
00:18:36at the infant in my arms,
00:18:38who was hanging onto life
00:18:40by a mere thread,
00:18:41and his face
00:18:42instantly changed color.
00:18:44His hands trembled
00:18:45as he probed
00:18:47the fluctuations
00:18:48within my daughter's body,
00:18:49his eyes filling with horror.
00:18:53Heavens!
00:18:54This is the forbidden poison
00:18:56that destroys the mana core!
00:18:59The child's natural core
00:19:00is withering away,
00:19:01inch by inch.
00:19:03She is in critical danger
00:19:04and will not survive
00:19:05past half a month.
00:19:07The doctor's words
00:19:08were like a massive hammer,
00:19:09smashing my heart
00:19:10to the point where I wished
00:19:12I could die on the spot.
00:19:14To suppress this aggressive toxin,
00:19:18we must immediately inject
00:19:20a powerful,
00:19:22compatible mana
00:19:23from her father's kingdom
00:19:24to protect her heart path.
00:19:28Otherwise...
00:19:29Trembling,
00:19:30I closed my eyes,
00:19:31disregarding any cost.
00:19:32I forcibly reversed
00:19:33the remaining essence
00:19:34within my body,
00:19:35frantically activating
00:19:37the soul transmission
00:19:38unique to the elven race.
00:19:40A connection
00:19:40never lightly opened
00:19:42unless it was a matter
00:19:43of life or death.
00:19:44Rowan!
00:19:45Save our daughter!
00:19:46Save our daughter!
00:19:47From the other end,
00:19:49there was only
00:19:49a deathly silence,
00:19:51followed by a completely
00:19:52heartless rejection.
00:19:54Rowan had actually
00:19:55severed my soul transmission,
00:19:57treating my soul cry for hair
00:19:58entirely as nothing.
00:20:04Rowan!
00:20:05I beg you,
00:20:08connect to me.
00:20:12Save Iris.
00:20:14I knelt on the freezing floor
00:20:16of the infirmary,
00:20:17sending out the soul transmission
00:20:18over and over again,
00:20:19even though maintaining it
00:20:20for every additional second
00:20:22brought a tearing,
00:20:23agonizing pain
00:20:23to my dried up sea of consciousness.
00:20:25I refused to let go.
00:20:27At this moment,
00:20:29inside the Wind Kingdom's
00:20:30main manor,
00:20:31Ronan was patiently keeping
00:20:33Vanessa and her son company.
00:20:35Three-year-old Jasper,
00:20:36dressed in a luxurious outfit
00:20:38embroidered with green leaves
00:20:40and gold thread,
00:20:41was pulling back
00:20:41a delicate short wooden monobow.
00:20:47When he hit the bullseye,
00:20:49it drew bursts of gasps
00:20:51and praise
00:20:51from the surrounding attendants,
00:20:53perhaps perturbed
00:20:55and annoyed by my weeping,
00:20:57blood-soaked pleas
00:20:58that continuously echoed
00:21:00in his mind,
00:21:01like an act of self-mutilation.
00:21:03After coldly cutting it off
00:21:04over a dozen times,
00:21:06Ronan finally accepted
00:21:07the connection.
00:21:09His phantom projection
00:21:10materialized in mid-air,
00:21:12looking down at my battered
00:21:13and wretched form
00:21:14from a great height,
00:21:15his eyes filled
00:21:16with absolute impatience
00:21:17and disgust.
00:21:19Serafana,
00:21:20haven't you thrown
00:21:21enough of a tantrum?
00:21:23Is the soul transmission
00:21:24something you use?
00:21:26As a prop to throw
00:21:28jealous fits?
00:21:29Ronan, no.
00:21:31Iris has been poisoned.
00:21:33Her monocore is about
00:21:34to shatter
00:21:35and the doctor said
00:21:36we must have the compatible mana
00:21:37from your body
00:21:38immediately
00:21:39to protect her heart path.
00:21:41I beg you,
00:21:43come and see her.
00:21:45Poisoned?
00:21:46The moment Vanessa
00:21:47and Jasper
00:21:48move into the main house,
00:21:50you begin fabricating
00:21:52such an absurd lie.
00:21:53Are you trying
00:21:54to curse my heir?
00:21:55I am not lying!
00:21:58She is really
00:21:59about to die.
00:22:04Enough!
00:22:06I know you are resentful
00:22:08because you gave birth
00:22:10to a daughter
00:22:12and your position
00:22:14as the Lord's Concord
00:22:15is insecure.
00:22:16But I am warning you,
00:22:18do not use a child
00:22:21as an excuse
00:22:23to disturb me.
00:22:27Jasper has to try
00:22:28on his robes
00:22:28for the dawn celebration
00:22:29in a moment.
00:22:30I have no time
00:22:33to play mad
00:22:35with you!
00:22:38Dropping these
00:22:39piercingly cold words,
00:22:40Ronan did not wait
00:22:42for me
00:22:42to utter another syllable
00:22:45before callously
00:22:46cutting off
00:22:47the soul transmission
00:22:47with a wave
00:22:48of his hand.
00:22:50The phantom projection
00:22:52in mid-air
00:22:52dissolved instantly
00:22:54and along with it,
00:22:55the very last shred
00:22:57of my hope
00:22:58was crushed
00:22:59to pieces.
00:23:02After the soul transmission
00:23:04was severed,
00:23:05Ronan stared
00:23:05at his empty palm,
00:23:06his brow frowned
00:23:07tightly together.
00:23:08Even though he utterly
00:23:09detested Serafina's
00:23:10jealous fits,
00:23:11he hearing a word
00:23:12like dying
00:23:12still caused a faint
00:23:13inexplicable wave
00:23:14of irritation
00:23:15and unease news
00:23:16to ripple
00:23:16through the depths
00:23:17of his heart.
00:23:18Vanessa,
00:23:18who was watching
00:23:19from the side,
00:23:20keenly captured the shift
00:23:21in Ronan's expression.
00:23:23A flash of panic
00:23:24crossed her eyes,
00:23:26but it was quickly
00:23:27replaced
00:23:28by a profound,
00:23:29calculating look.
00:23:30Vanessa stepped
00:23:31forward gently,
00:23:32considerably smoothing
00:23:33out the wrinkles
00:23:33on Ronan's groves
00:23:34as she spoke
00:23:35in a strained,
00:23:36high-pitched voice.
00:23:37Ronan,
00:23:38the primary mistress
00:23:39wept so heartbreakingly
00:23:40during the soul transmission.
00:23:41It has left my heart
00:23:42in a bit of a flutter
00:23:43as well.
00:23:43How about
00:23:44we go to the infirmary
00:23:45to take a look right now?
00:23:47After all,
00:23:48the little princess
00:23:48is also your flesh and blood.
00:23:50He absolutely mustn't
00:23:51let anything terrible happen.
00:23:53Seeing Vanessa
00:23:54being so magnanimous
00:23:55in understanding,
00:23:56the irritation
00:23:57in Ronan's heart
00:23:58dissipated quite a bit,
00:23:59and he nodded immediately.
00:24:01Very well.
00:24:02We will do as you say.
00:24:04I want to see
00:24:06what kind of tricks
00:24:07she can fabric.
00:24:08Then I will go prepare
00:24:09some monospring water
00:24:10to soothe the child's mind.
00:24:13Wait for me a moment.
00:24:14Vanessa turned around,
00:24:16and the moment
00:24:16she was at an angle
00:24:17where Ronan
00:24:18could not see her,
00:24:18the tenderness
00:24:19on her face
00:24:20stently transformed
00:24:21into a twisted,
00:24:22venomous malice.
00:24:23She did not go
00:24:23to prepare any spring water.
00:24:25Instead,
00:24:25she dispatched
00:24:26trustficent carrying
00:24:27heavy gold monocrystals
00:24:29to secretly bribe
00:24:30the doctor
00:24:30who had received Iris.
00:24:32When Vanessa
00:24:32accompanied Ronan
00:24:33and arrived at the infirmary
00:24:34in a hurried rush,
00:24:36she took advantage
00:24:36of a gap
00:24:37while Ronan
00:24:37was speaking
00:24:38with the nurses outside,
00:24:39using the excuse
00:24:40of checking in,
00:24:41first to stealthily slip
00:24:42into the patient room
00:24:43ahead of him,
00:24:44entirely unnoticed.
00:24:45Staring at the infant
00:24:46on the hospital bed
00:24:47who was hanging
00:24:48onto life
00:24:49by a mere thread,
00:24:50the divine mark
00:24:51on her forehead
00:24:52flickering erratly.
00:24:53She ruthless gleam
00:24:54flashed through
00:24:55Vanessa's eyes.
00:24:57She pulled an advanced,
00:24:59consecutive illusion potion
00:25:01from her sleeve,
00:25:02a formula capable
00:25:04of temporarily
00:25:04suppressing toxicity
00:25:06and forging a false
00:25:08appearance of health.
00:25:09Pinching the little
00:25:10princess' delicate neck,
00:25:11she poured the illusion potion
00:25:13down without
00:25:13the slightest hesitation.
00:25:15The instant the illusion potion
00:25:17entered her mouth,
00:25:18the sickly green
00:25:19deathly energy
00:25:20on the little princess's face
00:25:21began to recede rapidly
00:25:23and the divine mark
00:25:24that was on the verge
00:25:25of cracking
00:25:26eerily smoothed over.
00:25:28Even her burning
00:25:29body temperature
00:25:30began to return to normal
00:25:32at a rapid pace.
00:25:33Aside from falling
00:25:34into a deep slumber,
00:25:35she looked exactly
00:25:36like a healthy infant
00:25:38who had merely caught
00:25:39an ordinary chill
00:25:40and was sleeping peacefully.
00:25:43The moment Ronan
00:25:44pushed open the door
00:25:45to the patient room,
00:25:46I was collapsed
00:25:47by the bedside,
00:25:48my eyes filled
00:25:49with absolute disbelief
00:25:50as I stared
00:25:51at my daughter.
00:25:52Just moments ago
00:25:53after Vanessa came in,
00:25:55under a false pretext,
00:25:57the deathly energy
00:25:58on Iris's face
00:25:59suddenly vanished.
00:26:01Even her shriveled,
00:26:02divine mark
00:26:03smoothed out.
00:26:05Ronan stepped forward
00:26:07with a freezing expression.
00:26:12He only touched
00:26:13her forehead.
00:26:16Irissa,
00:26:17her temperature
00:26:17was normal,
00:26:19her breathing
00:26:19was steady.
00:26:21Then he whipped
00:26:23his head around,
00:26:23staring dead
00:26:24at my deathly pale face.
00:26:27His voice was sharp,
00:26:29cutting and poisoned.
00:26:32Seraphana!
00:26:33This is the life-threatening danger
00:26:35you spoke of?
00:26:37This is the shattered core
00:26:38you claimed?
00:26:41Her temperature is normal,
00:26:42her breathing is steady.
00:26:45As the Lord's Concord,
00:26:46you dared to deceive me.
00:26:49Using your newborn daughter
00:26:50as bait for a jealous tantrum.
00:26:54You disgust me.
00:26:56Looking at his furious face,
00:26:57my entire body
00:26:58turned cold.
00:26:59No!
00:27:00Ronan, listen to me!
00:27:02Just moments ago,
00:27:03she was not like this!
00:27:04It was Vanessa!
00:27:05She came in just now!
00:27:07She fed something to Modell!
00:27:08But Ronan did not believe me
00:27:10for even a second.
00:27:12So I turned to the doctor
00:27:13beside us,
00:27:14as if he were
00:27:15my last saving straw.
00:27:17Doctor,
00:27:18speak up!
00:27:21You clearly told me
00:27:22had been struck
00:27:23by a forbidden poison.
00:27:25You said it was
00:27:25destroying her core
00:27:26and she would not
00:27:27survive half a month!
00:27:29But the doctor,
00:27:30who had been pale
00:27:30with Tara moments ago,
00:27:32had already accepted
00:27:33Vanessa's massive bribe.
00:27:34He did not dare
00:27:35look at me.
00:27:36Then,
00:27:37syllable by syllable,
00:27:38he pushed me
00:27:39into the abyss.
00:27:40Reporting to the Lord,
00:27:41the little princess
00:27:41merely caught a bit of a breeze,
00:27:43but there may be O-double.
00:27:44It is only
00:27:45ordinary discomfort.
00:27:46The primary mistress
00:27:47is unsettled
00:27:48after childbirth,
00:27:49overly sensitive
00:27:49and blowing a small matter
00:27:50out of proportion.
00:27:51My entire world
00:27:51shattered like a bolt
00:27:52from Moments of Blue.
00:27:53How could it suddenly change?
00:27:55Watching me fall to the ground
00:27:56in a distrevelled,
00:27:57helpless state,
00:27:59Vanessa,
00:27:59hidden just behind Ronan,
00:28:00let a fleeting,
00:28:01venomous smile
00:28:02of triumph play
00:28:03on the corners of her lips.
00:28:05Then,
00:28:05stepping forward
00:28:06at the perfect moment,
00:28:07she submissively
00:28:08wrapped her arm
00:28:09aground Ronan's,
00:28:10practically melting
00:28:11half her body
00:28:12into his embrace.
00:28:13While casting
00:28:14feigned looks of pity
00:28:15at the little princess
00:28:15on the sickbed,
00:28:16she continuously
00:28:17blew poisonous whispers
00:28:19into Ronan's ear.
00:28:20Ronan,
00:28:21don't blame the primary mistress
00:28:22too much.
00:28:24Iris is a girl,
00:28:25after all,
00:28:26born with a weak constitution.
00:28:27It is only natural
00:28:29she panicked
00:28:29when a minor chill
00:28:30threw the child
00:28:30into such a state.
00:28:32It's just,
00:28:33the primary mistress
00:28:35is far too sensitive,
00:28:37always catching its shadows
00:28:38and blowing minor inconveniences
00:28:41entirely out of proportion.
00:28:43She looked up,
00:28:44her eyes brimming
00:28:45with tenderness
00:28:45and adoration.
00:28:47Jasper's succession ceremony
00:28:48is in just two days.
00:28:49That is the true matter
00:28:50of gravity
00:28:51for the kingdom's legacy.
00:28:53We cannot let
00:28:53Seraphina
00:28:54delay your proper business
00:28:55over these trivial
00:28:57backyard squabbles.
00:29:00Let us return
00:29:02to the main manor.
00:29:03We shouldn't let her hysteria
00:29:05ruin our precious time
00:29:06with Jasper.
00:29:11Ronan averted his eyes
00:29:12in disgust,
00:29:13refusing to grant
00:29:14even half a glance
00:29:15to his biological daughter
00:29:16on the sickbed.
00:29:17Vanessa,
00:29:18you are the one
00:29:19who is truly sensible.
00:29:20Come,
00:29:21let us return.
00:29:22And ignore this mad woman.
00:29:25If she wishes to stay here
00:29:27and make a spectacle
00:29:28of herself,
00:29:29let her be.
00:29:30Leaning triumphantly
00:29:31against Ronan,
00:29:32Vanessa accompanied him
00:29:33as he strode out
00:29:33of the infirmary.
00:29:34Only when the footsteps
00:29:36of the pair
00:29:36had completely faded,
00:29:38did the doctor,
00:29:39who had been kneeling
00:29:40on the ground,
00:29:41suddenly collapse
00:29:42in a heap.
00:29:42He scrambled
00:29:43on his hands and knees
00:29:45to my feet,
00:29:46co-oding frantically
00:29:47while crying out
00:29:48in absolute despair.
00:29:50Your inus,
00:29:51primary mistress,
00:29:52please do not blame me.
00:29:55I deserve to die.
00:29:56I deserve to die.
00:29:58Why did you lie just now?
00:30:00Madam Vanessa
00:30:01has officially moved
00:30:02into the Lord's main mansion
00:30:03with the heir
00:30:04and enjoys
00:30:04the Lord's absolute favor.
00:30:07She is the future
00:30:08primary mistress
00:30:09of the kingdom.
00:30:11Before the Lord
00:30:11entered just now,
00:30:12she pulled me aside
00:30:13and threatened
00:30:14that if I did not cooperate,
00:30:15she would take
00:30:15my entire family's lives tonight
00:30:17and even have the Lord
00:30:17take my head.
00:30:18She would truly kill me.
00:30:19Listening to the doctor's
00:30:20desperate wails,
00:30:21I looked at my daughter
00:30:21on the sickbed,
00:30:22whose condition was forcibly
00:30:23masked as peaceful
00:30:24by the illusion of poison.
00:30:25Ronan,
00:30:26to cater to your first love,
00:30:27you personally abandoned
00:30:28the sole opportunity
00:30:29to save your biological daughter.
00:30:31You will live
00:30:32to regret this.
00:30:36Three days later,
00:30:38Elid spared no expense,
00:30:40utilizing over half
00:30:41of the Wind Kingdom's treasury
00:30:42to organize
00:30:43an incredibly extravagant
00:30:45dawn trial
00:30:45for three-year-old Jasper.
00:30:47The streets of the main city
00:30:49were carpeted
00:30:50with sacred
00:30:51florens and petals.
00:30:53And they went so far
00:30:55as to exceptionally tame
00:30:56nine pure white unicorns
00:30:59to draw a crystal-invented float
00:31:03in a high-profile parade
00:31:05across the territory.
00:31:08As Vanessa held the hand
00:31:10of a magnificently dressed Jasper,
00:31:13his delicate little
00:31:14elven wings fluttering
00:31:16and ascended the float,
00:31:19waves of deafening cheers
00:31:21erupted
00:31:21across the skies
00:31:22of the Wind Kingdom.
00:31:24Meanwhile,
00:31:24in a dark corner
00:31:25of the Grand Hall,
00:31:26I cradled my daughter,
00:31:28whose life force
00:31:28was growing fainter
00:31:29by the moment,
00:31:30watching this absurd fast
00:31:32with cold detachment.
00:31:33Without the Lord's
00:31:34explicit permission,
00:31:36my daughter and I
00:31:36lacked even the right
00:31:38to enter the main hall,
00:31:41forced to stand
00:31:42in the freezing wind
00:31:44of the outer gallery.
00:31:45Just then,
00:31:46Vanessa,
00:31:47basking in the adoration
00:31:48atop the float,
00:31:50spotted my figure
00:31:51from afar.
00:31:51With a flicker
00:31:52in her eyes,
00:31:53she intentionally
00:31:53walked towards me
00:31:54with a smug smile.
00:31:56Covering her mouth
00:31:57with a handkerchief,
00:31:58she let out
00:31:58a feigned sigh
00:31:59of self-reploach,
00:32:00though her eyes
00:32:01were filled
00:32:02with condescending charity.
00:32:03Sister,
00:32:04do not blame
00:32:05Mother and Ronin
00:32:06for being heartless.
00:32:07The Withered Tower
00:32:08is peaceful,
00:32:09making it the perfect place
00:32:10for your magic-deficient
00:32:12daughter to recuperate.
00:32:13Today is our Jasper's
00:32:14succession celebration.
00:32:15You shouldn't have
00:32:16brought her out
00:32:16in the first place.
00:32:17Look at her.
00:32:18Even her divine mark
00:32:19is on the verge
00:32:20of dispersing.
00:32:21We must not let her
00:32:22clash with Jasper's
00:32:24unicorn fortune
00:32:24after today.
00:32:26Jasper will be
00:32:27the rightful first heir,
00:32:28while you,
00:32:29the primary mistress,
00:32:31are fit only to watch us
00:32:32ascend to the peak
00:32:33from the mud
00:32:33for the rest of your life!
00:32:34While Vanessa subjected me
00:32:36to endless mockery,
00:32:37the parade reached
00:32:38its absolute climax.
00:32:41Clad in a magnificent
00:32:42silver-white robe,
00:32:43a commanding
00:32:43and majestic Ronin
00:32:45ascended the central
00:32:46divine altar
00:32:47under the gaze
00:32:47of the masses.
00:32:49Raising his hands,
00:32:50he used amplification magic
00:32:51to declare to the entire field
00:32:53his voice echoing
00:32:55through the heavens,
00:32:56arrogant and ecstatic.
00:32:58Today is not only
00:32:59the celebratory feast.
00:33:00Establishing my son,
00:33:02Jasper's status as heir,
00:33:03but the starting point
00:33:04for our Wind Kingdoms,
00:33:06to march towards
00:33:06the peak of all kingdoms!
00:33:08I officially announce here
00:33:10that we are exerting
00:33:11every effort to secure
00:33:12multiple major cooperations
00:33:14with the mysterious
00:33:15and supreme
00:33:16High Elven King
00:33:17of the Sanctuary!
00:33:18I couldn't help but laugh.
00:33:19The supreme High Elven King
00:33:21they were so desperately
00:33:22trying to fawn over?
00:33:23That's my father.
00:33:24It's time for me
00:33:24to turn the tables.
00:33:27The moment these words
00:33:28were spoken
00:33:30a massive uproar
00:33:32rippled through the crowd.
00:33:34The High Elven King
00:33:36was the supreme ruler
00:33:37of the entire Elven world.
00:33:40A godlike existence.
00:33:44If they could obtain
00:33:45even a shred
00:33:45of that lord's favor
00:33:47the Wind Kingdom
00:33:48could instantly ascend
00:33:49into the ranks
00:33:50of the Super Kingdoms!
00:33:52Ronan's face
00:33:53was flushed
00:33:54with absolute pride
00:33:55his features
00:33:56bearing an unmaskable arrogance
00:33:59as he turned
00:34:00an affectionate gaze
00:34:01to Vanessa and Jasper.
00:34:04Once this cooperation
00:34:06is finalized
00:34:06Jasper will not only
00:34:08be the king
00:34:08of the Wind Kingdom
00:34:12but the most noble
00:34:13young commander
00:34:14of the future sanctuary!
00:34:16I shall use
00:34:17the eternal prosperity
00:34:18of the supreme sanctuary
00:34:20to make up
00:34:21for the grieges
00:34:22Vanessa
00:34:23and her son
00:34:24suffered
00:34:25over the past
00:34:26three years!
00:34:28Vanessa cast
00:34:29a provocative glance
00:34:30at me
00:34:30her eyes brimming
00:34:32with ostentatience
00:34:33and disdain
00:34:33Ronan's gaze toward me
00:34:35was also filled
00:34:36with ultimate coldness
00:34:37as if mocking
00:34:39my instant
00:34:39magnificence
00:34:40and incompetence.
00:34:41However
00:34:42watching Ronan's
00:34:43self-righteous declaration
00:34:44I felt not a single
00:34:45shred of anger
00:34:47instead
00:34:48I lowered my head
00:34:49and gently kissed
00:34:50the suppressed divine mark
00:34:51on my daughter's forehead
00:34:52the sole direct bloodline
00:34:55of the high elven king
00:34:56is
00:34:57at this very moment
00:34:59lying within
00:35:00the swaddling clothes
00:35:02you have dismissed
00:35:04as worthless garbage
00:35:08Ronan
00:35:08Vanessa
00:35:09the supreme divinity
00:35:11you are scheming
00:35:12to please
00:35:12by any means necessary
00:35:15is the very person
00:35:17you have personally
00:35:18pushed into the abyss
00:35:19and trampled upon
00:35:21in every way
00:35:21me
00:35:22the corners of my lips
00:35:24firved into an icy arc
00:35:25and the suppressed rage
00:35:27and hatred in my heart
00:35:28transformed into the most
00:35:30ruthless anticipation
00:35:31at this moment
00:35:33wind kingdom
00:35:34the final revelry
00:35:36of your lives
00:35:37ends
00:35:38here
00:35:42after a few days
00:35:43of revelry
00:35:44the disguise
00:35:45of the illusion potion
00:35:46finally collapsed
00:35:48like a castle of sand
00:35:50lying on the stone bed
00:35:52of the withered tower
00:35:53the toxins
00:35:53within my daughter's body
00:35:55broke past all restraint
00:35:56erupting violently
00:35:57she fell
00:35:58into a prolonged coma
00:36:00her tiny body
00:36:01burning with a terrifying fever
00:36:03her lips cracked and pale
00:36:05her breathing reduced
00:36:06to a flickering candle
00:36:07in the wind
00:36:10liable to extinguish
00:36:11at any moment
00:36:13I knelt by the bedside
00:36:15my magic entirely dried up
00:36:17leaving me helpless
00:36:19as I pressed my cheek
00:36:20against her icy little hand
00:36:23my tears long since dried
00:36:25just as I was on the verge
00:36:27of despairing unto death
00:36:29the wooden door
00:36:30of the high tower
00:36:31was suddenly pushed open
00:36:32in a frenzy
00:36:33the wind kingdom doctor
00:36:35burst in
00:36:35dripping with sweat
00:36:37his eyes a tangled mess
00:36:39of guilt and terror
00:36:40with trembling hands
00:36:41he presented a crystal bottle
00:36:44radiating a warm
00:36:45sacred golden light
00:36:47like the midday sun
00:36:48this medicine can neutralize
00:36:50all poisons
00:36:51save those on the brink of death
00:36:53and immensely nourish
00:36:54the bloodline
00:36:55of an elven babe
00:36:56please
00:36:56feed it to the little princess quickly
00:36:58this is her sole path
00:37:00to survival
00:37:00staring at that ball
00:37:02of sacred golden light
00:37:03my deadened heart
00:37:04began to beat frantically
00:37:05I snatched the spiritual medicine
00:37:06clutching it tightly
00:37:07to my chest
00:37:08my heart overflowing
00:37:09with joy
00:37:09as I believed
00:37:10my daughter was finally saved
00:37:12trembling
00:37:13I pulled the cork
00:37:14preparing to feed
00:37:16this life-saving drop
00:37:17into my daughter's mouth
00:37:19when the tower door
00:37:20was violently blown open
00:37:22with a resounding clash
00:37:23a wild wind rushed in
00:37:25as Alina
00:37:26flanked by her attendants
00:37:28strode in
00:37:29with a majestic
00:37:30yet greedy expression
00:37:31before I could even react
00:37:32she ruthlessly
00:37:34snatched the crystal bottle
00:37:35right out of my hands
00:37:40Ilyon gripped the flask
00:37:41of sacred tree extract
00:37:42tightly
00:37:43feeling the boundless
00:37:44sacred energy
00:37:45swirling within
00:37:46a fanatical greed
00:37:47erupted in her eyes
00:37:48give it back to me
00:37:50that is Iris'
00:37:52life-saving medicine
00:37:52I lunged forward
00:37:54like a madman
00:37:54to reclaim the medicine
00:37:55give it back
00:37:57only to be ruthlessly
00:37:59pinned to the ground
00:38:00by two high-tier guards
00:38:01using their magical staffs
00:38:03my knees slammed
00:38:04against the hard stone tiles
00:38:06emitting a sickening crack
00:38:08following closely behind
00:38:10Ronan looked down at me
00:38:12with cold detachment
00:38:14devoid of any pity
00:38:15Aleda trembled
00:38:17with excitement
00:38:17refusing to grant
00:38:19even a single glance
00:38:20to the dying daughter
00:38:21on the sickbed
00:38:21her mind and heart
00:38:23entirely occupied
00:38:24by her precious
00:38:25eldest grandson
00:38:25Ronan!
00:38:26look at this
00:38:27this is the legendary
00:38:28sacred tree extract
00:38:29though three-year-old
00:38:30Jasper is
00:38:31extraordinarily gifted
00:38:32his skeletal frame
00:38:33hasn't fully matured yet
00:38:35if we let him drink
00:38:36this divine item
00:38:37his wind magic
00:38:38will undergo
00:38:39a complete metamorphosis
00:38:40allowing him to grow
00:38:41taller and more powerful
00:38:43than any peer
00:38:44entirely solidifying
00:38:45his position
00:38:46as the first heir
00:38:47under the kingdom
00:38:48spotlight
00:38:49mother is correct
00:38:52leaving such a bloodline treasure
00:38:53in the withered tower
00:38:54would be an utter waste
00:38:56of a divine gift
00:38:57only Jasper
00:38:58is worthy of enjoying it
00:39:00Vanessa walked in
00:39:01at that moment
00:39:02carrying three-year-old Jasper
00:39:03looking at me
00:39:04pinned to the ground
00:39:05by the guards
00:39:06coughing up blood
00:39:07in a disheveled state
00:39:08the triumph and amusement
00:39:09in her eyes
00:39:10threatened to spill over
00:39:10the three of them
00:39:11huddled together
00:39:12admiring the item
00:39:13as if inspecting
00:39:14a supreme treasure
00:39:15filled with praises
00:39:16while I could only
00:39:17watch helplessly
00:39:18as the saving straw
00:39:19belonged to my daughter
00:39:20was stripped away
00:39:21completely
00:39:23amid my agonized weeping
00:39:25that priceless flask
00:39:26of sacred tree extract
00:39:28was gently
00:39:29yet forcefully poured
00:39:31into the mouth
00:39:32of the perfectly
00:39:33livable Jasper
00:39:34by El Adid
00:39:34the moment
00:39:35the divine item
00:39:36entered his mouth
00:39:37a blinding golden current
00:39:39erupted across
00:39:40Jasper's body
00:39:41not only did his
00:39:42wind attribute magic
00:39:43surge instantly
00:39:44but his height
00:39:45even seemed
00:39:46to increase
00:39:46slightly
00:39:47the three-year-old
00:39:49toddler excitedly
00:39:50brashed at his magic
00:39:51in the hall
00:39:51while Ronan and Vanessa
00:39:52surrounded him
00:39:53letting out waves
00:39:54of absolute delight
00:39:56the happier their laughter
00:39:58the more shattered
00:39:59my heart became
00:40:00Ronan looked down
00:40:01upon me as I lay
00:40:02limp on the ground
00:40:03his cold words
00:40:04cutting like blades
00:40:06Seraphina
00:40:07cease your weeping here
00:40:09Jasper
00:40:10is the future hope
00:40:11of the kingdom
00:40:12giving this medicine
00:40:13to him ensures
00:40:14it is put to
00:40:14its proper use
00:40:15as for Iris
00:40:18it has been said
00:40:19she merely has
00:40:20a common chill
00:40:22it is not worth
00:40:23delaying proper
00:40:24business over her
00:40:25and she certainly
00:40:26does not deserve
00:40:26a divine object
00:40:27like the sacred
00:40:28tree extract
00:40:29flicking his sleeves
00:40:30Ronan turned
00:40:31and left heartlessly
00:40:33taking the room's
00:40:34laughter with him
00:40:34when they departed
00:40:36entirely
00:40:36the tower plunged
00:40:38back into a deathly
00:40:39silence
00:40:40silence
00:40:40I crawled to the
00:40:41bedside
00:40:42looking at my
00:40:43empty hands
00:40:44and then at my
00:40:45daughter
00:40:45whose core was
00:40:47withering
00:40:47as she spit out
00:40:48another mouthful
00:40:49of black blood
00:40:49from the poison
00:40:50gripping her heart
00:40:51my daughter opened
00:40:52her eyes weakly
00:40:53rubbing against my
00:40:54palm with a touch
00:40:55of attachment
00:40:55before sinking
00:40:56entirely into
00:40:57a deathly coldness
00:40:58slowly raising
00:41:00my right hand
00:41:00I spared no cost
00:41:02to force out

00:43:05with festive decorations
00:43:06to celebrate
00:43:07three-year-old jasper
00:43:08consuming the sacred

00:43:13Aline ordered
00:43:14an all-night festival
00:43:16of music and dance
00:43:18inside the magnificent
00:43:20main hall
00:43:20the aroma of fine wine
00:43:22filled the air
00:43:22as countless high-tier elves
00:43:24raised their glasses
00:43:25in unison
00:43:25surrounding Vanessa
00:43:26and her son
00:43:27at the center
00:43:28with absolute flattery
00:43:29and obdaciousness

00:43:32looking at his triumphant
00:43:34eldest son
00:43:35his eyes filled
00:43:37with pride
00:43:38and certainty
00:43:39that the kingdom
00:43:40was about to ascend
00:43:41to the peak
00:43:42of all kingdoms
00:43:43the hypocritical
00:43:45and fanatical cheers
00:43:46echoed through
00:43:47the night sky
00:43:48transforming the entire
00:43:50temple
00:43:50into a city
00:43:51that never slept
00:43:53yet no one noticed
00:43:54that on the desolate path
00:43:55at the outmost edge
00:43:57of the main city
00:43:57leading towards
00:43:58the forbidden forest
00:43:59a slender and resolute figure
00:44:01was carrying a sweatling cloth
00:44:03stepping into the boundless
00:44:04curtain of night
00:44:05the freezing rain
00:44:06slammed down
00:44:06merseusely
00:44:07Seraphina's face
00:44:08was deathly still
00:44:09but her hands
00:44:10held the daughter
00:44:10in her arms
00:44:11with absolute tightness
00:44:12Iris's breathing
00:44:13within the cloth
00:44:14was faint
00:44:14her tiny body
00:44:15gradually turning
00:44:16stirby and cold
00:44:17Seraphina did not
00:44:18cast a single glance
00:44:19back at the false
00:44:19prosperity of the
00:44:20wind kingdom
00:44:21behind her
00:44:21her eyes held
00:44:23no more tears
00:44:23only an indifference
00:44:24that chilled to the bone
00:44:26the singing and dancing
00:44:27inside the main hall
00:44:28continued
00:44:29and Ronan was smiling
00:44:30as he accepted
00:44:30the fine wine
00:44:31handed to him
00:44:32by Vanessa
00:44:32at that exact instant
00:44:34deep within the dark forest
00:44:35far away
00:44:35the violent cold wind
00:44:36came to an abrupt halt
00:44:37without warning
00:44:38a sliver of incredibly noble
00:44:39sacred and tore
00:44:40through the darkness
00:44:41of the polar night
00:44:42the frame foes
00:44:42at the edge
00:44:43of the dark
00:44:43silent forest
00:44:44the sounds of the wind
00:44:45kingdom celebratory songs
00:44:47and laughed
00:44:47still echoed faintly
00:44:48but the moment
00:44:49the mother and girl's
00:44:50slender yet matchlessly
00:44:51noble fears
00:44:51that sliver of golden light
00:44:53they instantly transformed
00:44:54into a remnant gleam
00:44:55vanishing completely
00:44:57into the endless night
00:44:59the sacred light
00:45:00erupted outward
00:45:01at the center
00:45:02of the royal hall
00:45:02in the supreme sanctuary
00:45:04holding my daughter
00:45:05who had practically
00:45:06stopped breathing
00:45:07I finally collapsed
00:45:08onto my knees
00:45:09against the flawless
00:45:10white jade floor tiles
00:45:11my strength
00:45:12entirely spent
00:45:13my long hair
00:45:14was soaked through
00:45:15by the torricious rain
00:45:16sticking messily
00:45:16to my deathly pale cheeks
00:45:17the weakness of
00:45:18postparting recovery
00:45:19comboled with the trauma
00:45:19of forcibly reversing
00:45:21my source power
00:45:21caused me to leave
00:45:22a striking trail of blood
00:45:23with every step
00:45:24sitting high upon his throne
00:45:25my father rose abruptly
00:45:27when he clearly saw
00:45:28my broken state
00:45:29at the bottom of the steps
00:45:30his majestic noble face
00:45:31which had 10,000 years
00:45:32of history
00:45:33trembled violently
00:45:34with immense shock
00:45:35and heartache
00:45:35moving like a blur
00:45:37he materialized by my side
00:45:39in an instant
00:45:39his hands shaking
00:45:41as he tried to lift me up
00:45:42my daughter
00:45:43how did you become
00:45:45like this
00:45:47your supreme magic
00:45:49which even 10,000 kingdoms
00:45:51look up to
00:45:51why has it withered
00:45:53to such an extent
00:45:56I slowly raised my head
00:45:57the tears of blood
00:45:58at the corners of my eye
00:45:59long since dried
00:46:00I did not cry out
00:46:01I merely used the final
00:46:02shred of strength
00:46:03in my body
00:46:03to tremblingly present
00:46:04the swaddling cloth
00:46:05to my father

00:46:11as a lowerly wretch
00:46:12to steal her life-saving medicine
00:46:14they fed my iris
00:46:15forbidden illusion potions
00:46:16to forcibly mask the truth
00:46:18she has been poisoned
00:46:19with soul-eating grass
00:46:20and her magic core
00:46:22is on the verge of shattering
00:46:22my father took the tiny
00:46:24swatting cloth
00:46:25with trembling hands
00:46:26when his divine sense
00:46:27swept across his granddaughter's
00:46:29battered natural core
00:46:30which was being
00:46:30ravenously consumed
00:46:31by the poison
00:46:32this supreme gaiety
00:46:34who ruled over
00:46:34the entire sanctuary
00:46:36felt his eyes
00:46:37turn instantly bloodluck
00:46:38immediately following
00:46:39a terrifying
00:46:40world-destroying
00:46:42pressure erupted

00:46:47in an instant
00:46:48the skies above
00:46:49the entire supreme
00:46:50sanctuary shifted
00:46:51dramatically
00:46:52as the once bright
00:46:52heavens were enveloped
00:46:53by rolling black clouds
00:46:54and violent thunderbolts
00:46:55the ancient vines
00:46:56surrounding the royal hall
00:46:57which had flourished
00:46:58for tens of thousands
00:46:59of years
00:46:59seemed to feel
00:47:00the king's ultimate fury
00:47:02trembling wildly
00:47:03and thrashing against
00:47:04the ground
00:47:04as the entire sacred
00:47:05mountain shook
00:47:06violently under the
00:47:07divine rage
00:47:08my father raised
00:47:09his right hand high
00:47:10the destructive divine
00:47:11lightning flashing frankly
00:47:12at his fingertips
00:47:12he stared dead at his
00:47:14dying granddaughter
00:47:15within the cloth
00:47:16his gnashing words
00:47:17wrapped in supreme
00:47:17divine authority

00:47:41hesitate for a moment
00:47:42immediately ordering
00:47:43the opening of the
00:47:44life core of the
00:47:45ancient sacred tree
00:47:46that had lived for
00:47:47100,000 years
00:47:48within the forbidden
00:47:49grounds
00:47:49this was the energy
00:47:51source of the entire
00:47:52elfin world
00:47:53a place where even
00:47:54the high priests
00:47:55of the sanctuary
00:47:56had no right
00:47:57to approach normally
00:47:58yet it was fully

00:48:13above the sickbed
00:48:14radiating a soft
00:48:15vast and ocean-like
00:48:16purity of magic
00:48:17a canopy of
00:48:18brilliant golden light
00:48:19wrapped around
00:48:19iris's tiny body
00:48:20layer by layer
00:48:21like a coon
00:48:22nourished by this
00:48:22immense life force
00:48:24the faint golden
00:48:25divine mark
00:48:25on iris's forehead
00:48:26which had been
00:48:27nearly cracked
00:48:28and extinguished
00:48:29finally flickered
00:48:30with a weak
00:48:31resonance
00:48:31under the caress
00:48:33of the divine life
00:48:33i kept watch
00:48:34by the bedside

00:48:47grease poison
00:48:48from my daughter's
00:48:48body

00:48:54kitten-like
00:48:55whipper of pain
00:48:55and those drops
00:48:56of black toxic
00:48:57blood would

00:49:21as the first ray of
00:49:22the sanctuary's warm
00:49:23morning sun pierced
00:49:24through the window
00:49:25frame on the third
00:49:26day iris suddenly let
00:49:28out a resounding cry
00:49:29from the bed
00:49:29that cry was no longer
00:49:31weak and filled with
00:49:32despair like before
00:49:33but brimming with the
00:49:35strength of a new
00:49:36life the golden divine
00:49:37mark on her forehead
00:49:38restored completely
00:49:39and her once pale
00:49:40little face began to

00:49:56tiny fists and blue
00:49:57bubbles the tears i had
00:49:58suppressed for three
00:49:59long years finally broke
00:50:01through the floodgates
00:50:03the morning sun spilled
00:50:04across the luxurious
00:50:05couch vanessa was
00:50:06gently helping ronan
00:50:07into his robes however
00:50:08ronan's brow was
00:50:09furrowed tightly his
00:50:11handsome face clouded
00:50:12with undeniable
00:50:12irritation and gloom
00:50:13right then a panic
00:50:15start and bell rang out
00:50:15from outside the main
00:50:16temple several elders
00:50:17scrambled into the
00:50:18hall their faces as

00:50:44in that instant the image
00:50:46of seraphina's cold
00:50:47ruthless phantom before
00:50:48her departure flashed
00:50:49through his mind and his
00:50:51heart sank could it be
00:50:53seraphina but the moment
00:50:55the thought arose it was
00:50:56instantly crushed by the
00:50:57deep-rooted arrogance in
00:50:59his heart he let out a
00:51:00cold self-decricketing
00:51:01laugh seraphina was
00:51:03nothing more than a
00:51:03lowly woman with no
00:51:04background inferior even
00:51:06to a low-tier elf of the
00:51:07winchuary that happened
00:51:08to affect their kingdom
00:51:11seeing his distress
00:51:12vanessa quickly moved
00:51:14closer wrapping her
00:51:15arms around his to
00:51:17comfort him teasingly
00:51:19exactly lord sister ran
00:51:22away in a tantrum and
00:51:23is probably hiding in some
00:51:24inn using that sickly
00:51:26brat to threaten you
00:51:27until you soften how
00:51:28how could she possibly
00:51:29have the power to lock
00:51:30the ascension platform
00:51:33ronan pressed his
00:51:34throbbing temples a
00:51:36strange sensation of
00:51:37losing his kingdom's
00:51:38fortune made him
00:51:39increasingly restless
00:51:40pushing vanessa away
00:51:42he strode toward the
00:51:43covenant temple with a
00:51:44dark expression
00:51:47however the moment ronan
00:51:48stepped into the covenant
00:51:49temple the priest on duty
00:51:51collapsed to the floor in
00:51:52sheer terror his face
00:51:53deathly pale what are you

00:52:10forcibly erased what did
00:52:13you say forcibly erased not
00:52:16only is it gone but the
00:52:17mother and daughter used an
00:52:19ancient secret ritual to

00:52:21holy names from the elfin
00:52:23race half of the tree of
00:52:24life has withered i used
00:52:25every tracking method

00:52:29completely severed their
00:52:30bloodline and connection
00:52:31with the wind kingdom
00:52:32well played seraphina to
00:52:35resort to such a self

00:52:43see how many days you can

00:52:46dying daughter without the
00:52:47protection of the wind
00:52:48kingdom
00:52:50watching her daughter sleep
00:52:52peacefully in the divine
00:52:53light of the sacred tree
00:52:54seraphina slowly stood up
00:52:56the mole the tenders she
00:52:58turned to vanished from
00:52:59her eyes replaced by a
00:53:01bottomless coldness and
00:53:02resolve father i was too
00:53:04foolish in the past to
00:53:05repay a trivial mortal

00:53:10blooded mortal in return
00:53:12they trampled all over me and
00:53:13nearly caused my daughter's
00:53:14death she raised her hand
00:53:16slicing through the air like
00:53:17a blade as an invisible
00:53:19emotional barrier shattered
00:53:21the painful memories of her
00:53:22humiliation ronan's neglect
00:53:24and vanessa's framing in
00:53:26the wind kingdom were
00:53:27sealed deep within her
00:53:28heart from this day
00:53:30forward the lowly submissive
00:53:32consort of the wind
00:53:32kingdom no longer exists to
00:53:34ensure we are never
00:53:35trampled on again and to
00:53:36control my daughter's
00:53:37destiny i willingly accept
00:53:39the royal bloodline
00:53:40baptism looking at his
00:53:41daughter whose gaze had
00:53:42become as sharp as a hawk
00:53:44the high elvel king felt a
00:53:45surge of relief and pride he
00:53:46immediately gave his stern
00:53:47approval half an hour later
00:53:49the gates to the sanctuary's
00:53:50core forbidden ground swung
00:53:51open this was the sacred
00:53:52training pool exclusive to the
00:53:53heirs of the supreme royal
00:53:54family filled with primeval
00:53:56priadan magic accumulated over
00:53:5710 000 years and to an
00:53:59ordinary high elf would
00:54:00explode and die from
00:54:01touching even a single drop
00:54:02and to enduring the
00:54:03agonizing pain of a
00:54:04complete bone-shattering
00:54:05transcendent without any
00:54:06hesitation under the
00:54:07avarstek gaze of 10 000
00:54:09pure-blooded elven guards
00:54:10serafina stepped relutely
00:54:12into the terrifying surging
00:54:13sacred pool clad in a
00:54:14simple white robe boom the
00:54:16moment her body was
00:54:17completely submerged the
00:54:18ancient magic erupted
00:54:19unleashing towering golden
00:54:21waves the violent
00:54:22propezzanard energy slashed
00:54:23through her merpicrians and
00:54:24bones like countless blades
00:54:25yet she did not even flinch
00:54:26the nine sore seals she had
00:54:28petitioned herself to repay
00:54:29her debt to ronian began to
00:54:30shatter and unravel completely
00:54:32awakening her to dormant
00:54:33power under the furious
00:54:33onslaught
00:54:35smash ronin shattered his
00:54:37communication array for the
00:54:3812th time every time he tried
00:54:40to connect with serafina
00:54:41through a soul transmission
00:54:42he was met with nothing but a
00:54:44cold empty echo and the
00:54:46piercing pain of magical
00:54:47backlash his frustration
00:54:49reached its peep as a
00:54:50suffocating panic of losing
00:54:51control gripped his throat
00:54:53just then the hall doors
00:54:55pushed open and vanessa
00:54:56walked in smiling holding
00:54:58three-year-old jasper by the
00:54:59hand roman look after taking
00:55:02the sacred tree extract today
00:55:04jasper can already control two
00:55:06high tier wind blades he truly
00:55:10is your eldest son ronin turned
00:55:13his irritated gaze onto jasper
00:55:14who was shouting and playing
00:55:16with a toy but as he looked
00:55:17his breath caught whether it
00:55:19was due to the sudden loss of
00:55:20his kingdom's fortune looking
00:55:22at jasper's arrogant and brash
00:55:24face felt unprecedentedly
00:55:25discordal the child's features
00:55:27lacked even a trace of the wind
00:55:28kingdom royal family's elegance
00:55:30showing instead a crude
00:55:31vulgarity what terrified him
00:55:33most was that the wind
00:55:34attributed magic radiating from
00:55:36jasper was crosse and wild
00:55:37sharing absolutely no bloodline
00:55:39resonance with the pure
00:55:41biting royal bloodline in his
00:55:42own body when vanessa gave
00:55:44birth to the child outside
00:55:46years ago crying that she had
00:55:48been hunted by enemies and
00:55:49forced to wander ronin pitied her
00:55:52and never questioned the
00:55:53bloodline but now
00:55:58ronin why are you looking at
00:56:00jasper like that
00:56:02did he do something wrong
00:56:04rokon stared dead at the flash of
00:56:06panic in vanessa's eyes his hands
00:56:07clenched tightly beneath his robes
00:56:09as something shattered within his
00:56:10heart taking a deep breath to
00:56:12suppress his immense suspicion he
00:56:13put on a cold disguise it is
00:56:15nothing i am simply tired you may
00:56:18leave the moment the doors closed
00:56:21ronin's eyes turned incredibly
00:56:22sinister he looked toward the empty
00:56:24air and gave a ruthless command
00:56:26someone bring out the royal family's
00:56:28most secretive bloodline
00:56:29apriation arabus remember prepare it
00:56:32in secret find an opportunity to
00:56:34gather jasper's hair and finger blood
00:56:36later vanessa must not know a
00:56:38single thing about this if i find
00:56:40that his bloodline does not match i
00:56:42will ensure them die without a
00:56:44burial place
00:56:46meanwhile in the sanctuary around the
00:56:48forbidden sacred pool grounds 10
00:56:50000 pureblood high elven generals
00:56:52high priests and gradually cards of
00:56:53the divine king knelt across the
00:56:55mountains everyone held their breath
00:56:56looking up at the gradually calming
00:56:58sacred pool in awe suddenly faint
00:57:00golden ripple carrying supreme
00:57:01majority spread from the center of the
00:57:03pool a graceful noble figure slowly
00:57:05rose from the center of the water
00:57:06seraphina's postpartum weakness and
00:57:08plast were entirely gone her skin
00:57:10shone like flawless white jade
00:57:12flowing with a sacred light and her
00:57:14once withered long hair turned into a
00:57:15dazzling golden color skating down to
00:57:17her ankles under the baptism of the
00:57:19ancient presided energy her appearance
00:57:21and magic were completely restored far
00:57:24surpassing her past peak the moment her
00:57:26feet left the water and she hovered in
00:57:28air the space behind her tore violently
00:57:30boom accompanied by a divine phoenix
00:57:32cry that echoed through the heavens a
00:57:34pair of dazzling supreme natural wings
00:57:36radiating boundless life and
00:57:37destruction unfurled behind her back
00:57:39the divine wings were massive each
00:57:41feather condundated from the purest
00:57:42golden light of natural law with a
00:57:44slight flutter a terrifying pressure
00:57:45swept past like a tsunami unable to
00:57:48withstand the bloodline pressure from
00:57:49the depths of their souls the 10 000
00:57:51pure-blooded elves slammed their foreheads
00:57:54against the ground as the sacred roof
00:57:56and echoed in harmony we welcome her
00:57:58majesty's ascension to the throne
00:58:07standing amid the golden light
00:58:08seraphana looked down at her subjects
00:58:10she raised her hand slightly feeling the
00:58:12terrifying magic capable of destroying
00:58:14heaven and earth a cruel cold smile
00:58:16playing on her lips the submissive lowly
00:58:18consort who had once begged for a flask of
00:58:19pure spring water for her daughter in the
00:58:21withern tower had completely died in this
00:58:23sacred pool today the one who lived now was
00:58:25the supreme empress who held the power
00:58:28over life and death for the entire elven
00:58:30sanctuary she turned her gaze towards the
00:58:32direction of the wind kingdom her murderous
00:58:35intent radiating palpably
00:58:39since seraphina's departure vanessa carried
00:58:41herself completely as the new mistress of
00:58:43the wind kingdom without the restraint of
00:58:45the legitimate primary mistress she tore
00:58:47off her past gentle disguise the first
00:58:49thing she did upon moving is replace all
00:58:51the decorations with the most luxurious gold
00:58:53silks she lived extravagantly and wastefully
00:58:55bathing in the rarest floral dew daily and
00:58:58even forcibly withalding nearly half of the
00:59:00lower tier elf's winter ravens just to
00:59:02fashion a sweeping dress embedded with deep
00:59:04sea magic krills furthermore vanessa was
00:59:06arrogant and harsh to the point of cruelty to
00:59:08toward the servants and lower-class elves of the kingdom
00:59:10mistress this is the silver needle tea you requested
00:59:13the temperature is just right
00:59:15it's
00:59:15scolding you useless wretch are you trying to ruin my face on purpose
00:59:19someone strip her of her elfin badge and banish her entire family to hard
00:59:23lavery at the wither tower
00:59:25panic gripped the main manor and the lower tier elves filled the air with
00:59:28grievances
00:59:29sitting in his study ronin listened to the constant shouting face slapping and
00:59:32crying from outside his temples throbbing
00:59:34looking at the ledger submitted by the council of elders which detailed
00:59:38vanessa's waste of tens of thousands of magic crystals over the past few days
00:59:41his face turned grim in the past when seraphina managed the household the entire
00:59:45wind kingdom was orderly she was always gentle understanding and proper
00:59:49choosing to live frugally rather than misappropriate a single penny from the
00:59:52kingdom even using her own source morna to nourish injured low-tier soldiers
00:59:55roman instinctively touched the empty space beside his throne
00:59:58an unprecedented emptiness and regret washing over him like a tidal wave
01:00:02he began to desperately miss the woman who had always quietly waited for him
01:00:06but now no matter how much he searched the wind kingdom's territory he could no
01:00:11longer find a single trace of seraphina
01:00:14yet ronin had no idea that while he was drowning in endless regret and agony a dim
01:00:18storle lamp was burning in the most secluded subterranean chamber of the main manor
01:00:22dressed in her luxurious gown vanessa showed none of her usual arrogance
01:00:25slumping limply into the embrace of her old lover oswin
01:00:28the chief captain of the guards oswin's rough calloused hands gripped her slender
01:00:31waist tightly as their breaths mingled in a display of immacity and wanton behavior
01:00:35that suspicious red ronin stared at jasper for a long time today
01:00:39could he have discovered something my darling with me here what are you afraid
01:00:44of even if his suspicions lead him to test the bloodline he will never find a
01:00:48problem don't forget when he sent me to draw
01:00:50our son's blood i swapped it with my own that broken appraisal askel of his will
01:00:55only show an absolute blood relative oswin pulled vanessa closer tilting her chin up
01:01:00proudly if ronin hadn't been heavily injured and unconscious during the war
01:01:04three years ago allowing you to slip into my bed amid the chaos
01:01:08how else would he have become this cheap father and felt guilty enough to search
01:01:13for you for three whole years vanessa's beautiful eyes flashed with a venomous
01:01:17light as she laughed and pinched the man who told ronin to pride himself on being
01:01:21deeply affectionate when he is actually a fool who is easily deceived
01:01:24for three years he trampled serafina the legitimate mistress into the dirt for the
01:01:29sake of jasper and mine little does he know the air he personally cherishes is
01:01:33actually your child a wild and greedy ambition as his flashed his voice turned
01:01:37low and vicious ronin is completely distracted every day because of seraf's
01:01:41disappears and the kingdom's fortune is mostly vanished for some reason
01:01:44the ascension passage is even closed in just a few more days we will deliver the
01:01:49fatal blow
01:01:52the inner frustration and the mysterious loss of his kingdom's fortune drove him near
01:01:56madness his mind troubled he walked aimlessly through the streets of the main
01:01:59city and inadvertently stopped in front of the infirmary looking at the somewhat
01:02:04dilapidated doors the image of serafina weeping in absolute despair here
01:02:08suddenly flashed through his mind i must be losing my mind to have walked all the
01:02:12way here just as he turned to leave a stealthy figure carrying a bundle
01:02:15prepared to flee from inside the infirmary it was the doctor from before ever
01:02:18since serafina umister raised her holy name and left causing half of the tree of
01:02:21life to wither this doctor had been tormented night and day by guilt and fear
01:02:25finally breaking down and preparing to escape overnight ronin's eyes turned sharp
01:02:28moving like lightning he materialized before the doctor blocking his path
01:02:32where do you think you are running what are you panicking for upon seeing me
01:02:37looking at ronin's rage distorted face and thinking of the rampant rumors about
01:02:40the primary mistress disappearance and the sacred trees withering the doctor's
01:02:43psychological defense collapsed completely with even needing to use a
01:02:45soul-searching technique he fell to his knees in terror now coding frantically as
01:02:49tears and muses strem down his face lord spare my life i deserve to die i
01:02:52dare not hide it any longer the primary mistress did not lie she was
01:02:56not throwing a tamer fighting for effect ronin's heart skipped a beat a profound
01:02:59sense of foreboding enveloping his entire body
01:03:02make yourself clear what do you mean she didn't lie
01:03:05it was your daughter your daughter iris didn't catch an ordinary chill at all
01:03:09she was poisoned with the highly insidious soul-eating grass and her core had
01:03:13already begun to wither boom the doctor's words exploded in ronin's ears like a
01:03:17thundermist leaving his pail and make him sway on his feet ronin grabbed the
01:03:21terrified fleeing doctor by the collar his eyes bloodshot like a cornered beast
01:03:25impossible i checked her myself that day her breathing was steady and her
01:03:30temperature was normal even you personally diagnosed it as a common chill
01:03:34how dabricate a poisoning story to me now
01:03:39it was all fake madadam vanessa forced me to do it
01:03:43it was her she fed the little princess a forbidden illusion potion before you
01:03:48arrived forcibly creating a false appearance of
01:03:52hell
01:03:52the doctor's words cut like knives tearing ronin's self-rightless arrogance to
01:03:58pieces
01:03:59madame vanessa bribed me and threatened my family's lives to maintain the illusion
01:04:03all to make you believe the primary mistress was just throwing a jealous fit so you would
01:04:07ignore the mother and daughter leaving the little princess to die from the poison
01:04:11and and that flask of sacred tree extract hearing the words sacred tree extract ronin's body shook
01:04:17violently his face draining of all color that spiritual medicine was given to the primary
01:04:22mistress out of my sudden flash of consciousness it was not only an antidote to all poisons but the
01:04:26soul hope to save the little princess's life yet you you detested the primary mistress and forcibly
01:04:31snatch that medicine away to secure the position of the perfectly healthy jasper
01:04:36omen felt as if he'd been struck by lightning all strength instantly draining from his body
01:04:41boundless darkness and immense regret swallowed him like a tsunami he finally realized that
01:04:46serafina had been telling the truth all along it was him he the father blinded by favoritism and
01:04:53interest who had personally snatched away his daughter's life-saving straw pushing his newborn
01:04:58child into the abyss of death a spray of crimson blood erupted from ronin's mouth as he collapsed
01:05:06onto his knees on the freezing stone pavement clutching his agonizingly painful chest letting
01:05:11out a desperate piercing streel
01:05:16serafina iris what have i done what on earth have i done immense regret drove ronin completely mad
01:05:23disregarding the blood on his lips he scrammed back to his feet and ran back to the main hall like
01:05:27a
01:05:28madman at this moment he no longer cared about supreme cooperation or reaching the peak
01:05:34he only wanted to find his wife and save his daughter's life search mobilize all forces of
01:05:40the wind kingdom search every inch of land and even if you have to hunt through the forbidden forest
01:05:45bring back the primary mistress and the princess go now
01:05:53however one day passed then two days and for three whole days and nights the elite high
01:05:59elves brought back nothing but the desperate news of no trace found serafina seemed to have
01:06:04dissolved into the wind vanishing completely without a trace failing to find his wife ronin's
01:06:09grief and self-blame gradually transformed into a towering merlison test he finally thought of the
01:06:14instigator vanessa vanessa you vicious wretch i will tear you into 10 000 pieces gripping the great sword
01:06:22of the wind god that symbolized his kingdom's power he strode toward vanessa's bedchamber brimming with
01:06:28murderous intent he wanted to settle the score with that evil woman and use the blood of vanessa
01:06:33and her son to atone for his actions against his wife and daughter however when he reached the
01:06:39chamber he found it completely empty unleashing his divine sense he followed a faint trace of magic
01:06:45straight into the desolate forest behind the temple the moon was dark and the wind howled through the
01:06:51silence of the desolate forest behind the temple ronin concealed his presence moving step by
01:06:55step into the shadow of the ancient trees with his great sword but before he could see clearly faint
01:06:59whispers and strugglings came from the thicket falling clearly into his ears slow down if that
01:07:04fool ronin finds out we are dead what are you afraid of he is completely distracted every day
01:07:09because of that wretch running around the world like a madman how could he have time for us i've
01:07:12already coordinated with governor gamma while he will strip the treasury of all magic crystals and

01:07:34he has been holding that fake bloodline report comforting himself that jasper is his child
01:07:37completely unaware that the heir he raised with the kingdom's sacred medicine is actually your
01:07:41biological flesh and blood the truth slapped ronin across the face shattering his remaining self-respect
01:07:47and pride it turned out he was not only the murderer who had personally pushed his biological
01:07:50daughter to her death but also the world's biggest fool who had raised a bastard child for a pair of

01:08:35mist away the disheveled couple had all flooded the wind forest using their familiarity with the
01:08:38ground as the cold wind blew he looked around at the empty surroundings appearing as though he had
01:08:43aged a hundred years ronan fell to his knees his fingers digging into the dirt as he wept desperately
01:08:51like a beaten dog in the dead of night meanwhile inside the flawless radiant temple of life in the
01:08:57supreme sanctuary iris had completely recovered she was now dressed in garments woven from the rarest
01:09:03golden silk and sitting in a cradle carved from 10 000 year old moonwa jiggling and blowing bubbles
01:09:07the supreme divine mark on her forehead flowed with brilliant colors exuding an incredibly noble
01:09:12bloodline standing beside the cradle seraphina gently played with her daughter her eyes filled
01:09:17only with maternal love as for the past humiliations and affection the high elfin king slowly walked over
01:09:23to his daughter looking at his reborn granddaughter with affection he then turned a serious gaze toward

01:10:06that the sanctuary ceremony will begin shortly you will officially inherit the throne and become the
01:10:10first high elf and queen of our supreme sanctuary in 10 000 years meanwhile the wind kingdom far at the
01:10:17edge of the continent had fallen into a perilous situation due to vanessa and oswin's betrayal and
01:10:21thief of the funds a fierce internal conflict erupted within the kingdom worse still because seraphina had erased
01:10:27her holy name and severed the tree of life withered causing the kingdom's overall magic to rapidly decline
01:10:31and their barrier to romans sat on his broken throne emaciated and covered in stubble showing none of
01:10:37his past glory as a lord just then an old servant tremblingly presented a gathering order from the
01:10:42supreme sanctuary my lord a divine oracle has arrived from the supreme sanctuary the new supreme empress is

01:11:38was so desperate to grovel for belonged to the very wife he had personally pushed into the abyss
01:11:46before the sanctuary coronation ceremony the finding walked to be launched to rest in the
01:11:49simplest deed at the secret shant edge of shenguangton's out it nate stood alone on the
01:11:53noon in the other driving below suketis and mar the d of trun shempil of surging through
01:11:56above fort nariad ronan's mins raised to curse as if something canate was awakening within that divine
01:12:00light images of seraphina began to flash incontrollably through his mind her shyness when they first met
01:12:06her tenderness when healing his wounds and her cold resoluced gaze as she left the withered tower
01:12:15holding their daughter aloena walked up behind him wearing a cloak looking at her distracted son
01:12:20she let out a deep sigh roran stop thinking about it tomorrow is the critical day to meet the supreme
01:12:25empress the survival of our wind kingdom relies entirely on this single action you must not lose

01:12:40seeing this grand sight of ten thousand kingdoms paying homage tomorrow regrettably and no one
01:12:44could answer his belated affection and self-reflection on the day of the ceremony the supreme sanctuary shone
01:12:49with magnificent golden light piercing the sky the entire sacred mountain was to look invincible holy
01:12:54unicorns soared through the air as tribal leaders and ancient deities gather to elders meanwhile
01:12:59remissly in the most remote corner at the outmost edge of the main hall not even daring to raise
01:13:03their heads as a sacred ancient bell echoed through the heavens a grand and vast chant filled
01:13:07the world silence across all kingdoms we welcome the ascension of her majesty the high elven queen
01:13:14a supreme throne radiating immense authority slowly rose from the center of the tree ronan and his
01:13:19mother eleda pressed their heads firmly against the freezing floor tiles their bodies trembling violently
01:13:24under the supreme bloodline pressure that descended from above near of a strange procession under the
01:13:28immense pressure ronan managed to raise his head with great difficulty wanting to look upon the
01:13:31mysterious antrus who could save his kingdom's life however when his gaze pierced through the golden
01:13:37light and clearly saw the figure sitting upon the supreme throne the massive natural wings unfurled
01:13:44behind her back and the daughter she held in her arms sucking her fing roman's pupils shrank
01:13:50violently in an instant as if struck by lightning his breath catching completely in his throat that face
01:13:56that noble cold and peerless high elven queen who ruled over the entire sanctuary was actually seraphina
01:14:05seraphina ronan's startled cry shattered the silence of the temple high priestess alonda looked up and
01:14:10recognized the beautiful empress radiating absolute authority from the altar she lives connect i was wrong
01:14:15i truly know i was wrong please the useless woman they had trampled in the withered town two golden
01:14:20spears struck down with the force of natural law she looked down upon him who lay like a dead dog
01:14:29at
01:14:29the bottom of the steps while iris blew bubbles in her arms there was no hatred in her eyes only
01:14:33the
01:14:34disgust one would feel looking at an open sewer ronan do you think you are worthy of speaking my holy
01:14:39name

01:15:00medicine the leaders of the various kingdoms expressed their disdain and spit in disapproval clutching
01:15:06his swollen face self-respect was publicly trampled before all kingdoms his reputation was completely
01:15:15destroyed yes i deserve to be beaten i am a beast so i mean as long as you vent your

01:15:24now knelt in the dust his pleas echoed empty and desperate seeing an opportunity alita cast aside
01:15:30all dignity and began copycating frantically your divine majesty for the sub the wind kingdom being
01:15:34of the royal family thousand years please stay your hand and save our withering tree of life looking at
01:15:39the mother and icon who were still calculating for benefits even now the mockery on seraphina's
01:15:43boobs deepened to the extreme save you the wind kingdom only enjoyed its past glory because i
01:15:48nourished it with my supreme source power since you will reclaim everything i granted you she slowly
01:15:52raised her hand curving her fingers and made a grasping motion toward ronan and alation from afar
01:15:56in an instant the ancient wind laws inside ronan and alina which had been granted by the royal family
01:16:01turned into strands of golden light and were violently stripped from their bones and souls
01:16:06my magic
01:16:08my cultivation
01:16:13was a stripping process more painful than death within moments ronan's cultivation plummeted from
01:16:17a high tea lord to something inferior even to an ordinary low-tier elf turning him into a complete
01:16:21and vital pass down my divine of the king of the karen of the ward can to point of his
01:16:24age be reduced to sinful withered wood forbidden from ever entering the sanctuary someone throw this
01:16:28disgusting pile of garbage out a divine guard kicked ronan hard in the abdomen sending the
01:16:33two broken stripped and thoroughly disgraced wretcheds tumbling down the nine layers of the altar
01:16:39amid the laughter of all kingdoms internal conflict spread like wildfire through the
01:16:45wind kingdom and the anger of the lower tier elves completely overthrew the main manor
01:16:48meanwhile lying on a bed in a side pavile the old woman alina trembled inside the empty room
01:16:52she had previously been blinded by greed secrecy accepting mass amounts of illicit wealth from
01:16:56vanessa oswin and gamma to secure their positions even the forceful snatching of iris's sacred tree
01:17:00extract had been driven largely by her own greed now retribution had arrived the kingdom was ruined
01:17:05the treasures were lost and even the eldest grandson jasper whom she had cherished night
01:17:08and day as the future hope of the kingdom was confirmed to be nothing to dirty bastard the heavy
01:17:12and terrifying karmic backlash transformed into invisible bullets cutting at her guilty soul night
01:17:16and day the extreme fear and massive mental shock drove the normally arrogant and harsh old woman
01:17:21completely sane that night as the sounds of rioting echo outside the old woman ended her guilty life
01:17:28with a white silk cord hanging from a beam in the cold lonely main manor
01:17:33the next morning when ronan pushed open the door and saw his mother's stiff body hanging in mid-air
01:17:40he only let out a few horny tragic laughs unable to squeeze out even a single tear
01:17:47meanwhile thousands of miles away from the wind kingdom at the frozen border an incredibly
01:17:51luxurious sacred carriage was hurtling through the sky the carriage compartment was stuffed with
01:17:55radiant rare treasures the entire foundation of the wind kingdom that vanessa and chief cap two
01:18:00wolves shown only with absolute os greed for wealth vanessa this chest of divine items belongs to me
01:18:05without my guard team coordinating you wouldn't have even made it out the main gates of the manor
01:18:10nonsense without the lord's talisman that i stole what would you even be
01:18:14these treasures are my reliance for the rest of my life don't you dare take a single penny
01:18:17in the face of interest their past familiarity vanished completely due to an unfair distribution
01:18:21of the spoils malice erupted in both of them and they immediately engaged in a fierce magical
01:18:25brawl inside the narrow carriage wild wind blades and toxic mists clashed violently inside the
01:18:30compartment creating continuous loud explosions as the out of control carriage traveled along a highly
01:18:35treacherous mountain path the draught bears panicked and went wild
01:18:46damn damn it amid a piercing streak the out of control carriage plunged off the cliff edge
01:18:53carrying the couple and the treasures they had schemed so hard to steal crashing heavily into the boulder
01:18:58stretch bottom of the deep valley beneath the deep valley the rain poured heavily the carriage had
01:19:04shattered completely with broken wood and magic crystals scattered across the ground amid the rubble
01:19:09the bodies of vanessa and ashwick lay twisted together torn apart by the wild magic to the
01:19:13point of being unrecognizable dying an incredibly gruesome death that green tea face that had once
01:19:19used illusion potions to maintain a false appearance of perfection was now sliced and bloodied by the rocks
01:19:27buzz space rippled slightly as several royal guards clad in pure gold robes quietly descended upon the
01:19:32crash site seraphina did not even need to act personally merely sending the sanctuary's cleanup
01:19:37group to wrap things up this is the heavenly karma for those who betray her majesty the guards raised
01:19:42their hands golden light surging from from their palms as the magic arenas activated the scattered
01:19:47ancient treasures and sacred resource of the wind kingdom were entirely gathered and reclaimed
01:19:51these items carried a significant amount of fortune and now that they were continuously funneled into
01:19:55the treasury of the supreme always had the villains had calculated everything only to lose their lives in the
01:20:01end and turned the wind kingdom's thousands of years of accumulation into a stepping stone to
01:20:06secure seraphia's supreme royal power which was ironic to the extreme having lost everything he
01:20:14sank completely into boundless darkness he had no mother no kingdom and no status to pride himself on
01:20:18whenever night fell across the empty ruins he seemed to hear her gentle voices and another's painful
01:20:22cries from her swaddling clothes those memories transformed into the most brutal torture tearing his
01:20:26mind apart bit by bit seraphina look i brought the sweetest spring water for our daughter today
01:20:31he began to exhibit severe split personality symptoms at times he would kneel on the ground
01:20:36and slap himself frantically crying out that he shouldn't have snatched his daughter's life-saving
01:20:40medicine at other times he would embrace the empty air gently pretending his wife and child were still
01:20:45by his side vanessa you vicious red give me back my daughter give me back my happiness he drowned his
01:20:53sorrows in alcohol all day his mind become increasingly fractured as he remained trapped indefinitely within
01:20:58the endless regret he had personally fashioned roman curled up in the corner of a freezing stone seat
01:21:05his clothes tattered his once proud spine broken by regret his hands were blooded and his fingernails
01:21:11filled with mud from frantically digging through the rubble for garments seraphana had left behind
01:21:19look at that that's the wise lord who trampled his true wife for a green tea woman back then
01:21:29he really is a pathetic dog ronian was completely deaf to these mocks merely clutching a tattered cloth doll
01:21:36tightly to his chest a toy he had fashioned for iris from memory since his magic was entirely
01:21:41gone his appearance was aging at a visible rate his long hair turning into dry white strands whenever
01:21:47the harsh alcohol hit his throat he would begin to self-harm he used sharp stones to carve the name
01:21:54seraphina deeply into his arms drawing blood yet it could not stop the splitting pain in his chest
01:22:04seraphina this is retribution this is my retribution you let me live only to find that every second of
01:22:13being alive is an absolute hell the once high and mighty king had ultimately transformed into a mentally
01:22:20degranged madman fighting with wild dogs for food in the ruins death would be a merciful release for him
01:22:26and remaining conscious to endure this life sentence of regret was his ultimate punishment
01:22:32as for jasper the three-year-old fake he who had been pampered by the entire kingdom
01:22:36he was after all an innocent and ignorant child who did not understand the greed and sins of adults
01:22:42with the deaths of venere and osquin the vanity privileges and flambrity that had once around
01:22:46him him vanished overnight once the truth of the royal bloodline array spread he was no longer the high
01:22:50and mighty young master and the silver of magic he had forced out by stealing iris sacred
01:22:54tree extract completely withered due to a lack of subsequent nourishment the forged mark on his
01:22:58forehead disappeared and he was reduced to a perfectly ordinary mediocre child take him away
01:23:06let him become an ordinary farming child at the border this ruin of the wind kingdom should not
01:23:12retain a bloodline of sin
01:23:16father mother where did you go
01:23:25jasper will be good from now up
01:23:30he no longer had a luxurious golden cradle or a crowd of attendants surrounding him
01:23:34he was sent to a remote village far from power struggles becoming an ordinary orphan who knew nothing
01:23:39of his birth parents perhaps staying far away from the grievers here
01:23:45the coronation ceremony lasted for seven days before finally came to a successful conclusion
01:23:50seraphina stood atop the highest altar of the supreme sanctuary with past severing her ties completely
01:23:55submission weakness and ridiculous mortal affection to radiate and natural wings behind her back over all
01:24:00the world and by her side she held the hand of a beautiful smiling young girl iris had completely
01:24:05recovered not only was the supreme bloodline within her body fully awake but her large eyes shown as brightly as
01:24:09a
01:24:09shaking her little head she held seraph onto the divine throne that symbolized the highest
01:24:13power of the elfin world amid the mountain-shattering worship of all living being
01:24:17mother it's so beautiful here will anyone dare to bully us from now on seraphana looked down
01:24:25gently stroking the brilliant supreme golden mark on her forehead her eyes filled with maternal resolve
01:24:32no my darling from this day forward mother will protect you and no one will ever be able to harm
01:24:38you in the slightest
01:24:39mother and daughter sat side by side upon the divine throne beneath their feet lay the vast
01:24:43prospering territory of the elven royal family the empress who had cast aside romantic
01:24:46attachments now stood alone in her divinity ruling over the sanctuary and beginning a legendary era that
01:24:50appeared that belonged entirely to them
01:24:51now
01:24:51it just happened to me
