Short filmTranscript
00:00In my past life, my sister Serena snatched my destined deer shifter as her mate.
00:05Left with no choice, I settled for an unevolved phoenix shifter, Lucian.
00:09But the deer suddenly went rogue and rammed into my sister,
00:13nearly killing her and making her the pack's laughing stock.
00:16But my Lucian triggered a rare awakening.
00:19He became a powerful fire phoenix.
00:21Driven mad by jealousy, my sister drove a blade straight into my stomach.
00:26When I opened my eyes again,
00:30I watched my sister choose Lucian without a second thought.
00:33I knew she had also been reborn.
00:35But she did not know that Lucian's transformation was not luck.
00:39It became a legend because I risked my life to hunt down the eternal flame for him.
00:45Choose carefully when the beastmen come in.
00:48The mate you pick is for life.
00:51Where I'm from, everyone selects a beastmate after coming of age.
00:55Each year, the beastmates are chosen in order,
00:58starting with the elders' daughters.
01:00The stronger a beastmate can become,
01:02the better it is for the one bonded to him.
01:04As Mother looked at me, her tone shifted.
01:07Vivian, although the elders say the deer shifter is the best match for you,
01:10that doesn't mean it's the best choice.
01:13You are older, so you must let your sister have it.
01:17Do you understand?
01:18I stared at Mother in a daze.
01:21The scent of blood hadn't faded, yet now she only looked at me coldly.
01:25This harshness was only for me.
01:27She had only ever been gentle and doting toward my younger sister,
01:31Mother demanded coldly.
01:33Vivian, answer me.
01:35I gave a bitter smile.
01:36Mother, what do you want me to answer?
01:38In my past life, I had argued back.
01:41It was clear the deer shifter was a better match for me,
01:43but she called me greedy,
01:45lacking an older sister's generosity
01:47and incapable of greatness.
01:50Just then, Serena,
01:52holding the fledgling in her arms,
01:54smiled sweetly and spoke up.
01:56Mom, let Vivian have the deer shifter.
01:59Please don't argue with her because of me.
02:01The phoenix is enough for me.
02:02Serena, are you sure you want Lucian?
02:05A beast mate will shape your entire future.
02:09Mom knows how proud Serena is.
02:11She always wants the best.
02:13Why would she give up the spirit deer for a trash bird?
02:16A flash of disgust crossed Serena's eyes.
02:20She knew the spirit deer was way more valuable,
02:22but she was still terrified of how it almost killed her in her last life.
02:26Yes, Mom.
02:27I only want Lucian.
02:29Serena shot me a smug look,
02:31like she was already watching me get trampled to death.
02:34What a fool.
02:35She forgot that the deer only went crazy
02:38because she forced it to level up too fast.
02:40Lucian only became a phoenix because of my sacrifice.
02:44But that ungrateful bird.
02:46Before I even died in my past life,
02:48he used his phoenix powers to reject our makebond.
02:52If he hadn't stolen my last bit of life force,
02:55that stab wound wouldn't have killed me.
02:57Mom smiled warmly at Serena,
02:59then turned her cold eyes on me.
03:02Serena is so sweet for giving you the deer shifter, Vivian.
03:06You need to give half of your magic crystals to Serena.
03:09Lucian needs expensive care.
03:12So she always knew Lucian needed care.
03:14But in my past life, she never said that.
03:16She just told me Lucian was useless
03:18and made me give my crystals to Serena anyway.
03:21Turns out, no matter if I choose the bird or the deer,
03:25Mom will never love me.
03:26Fine.
03:27Then I don't want either of them.
03:29I walked right past the deer,
03:31straight to the very back of the room,
03:33and picked up a black wolf pup that nobody wanted.
03:36This life, I want a loyal, brutal, and deadly beast mate.
03:43Mom, I don't want Serena's leftovers.
03:46And I'm not sharing my magic crystals.
03:49You used to always give Serena half!
03:52Who taught you to be so selfish?
03:54Where is your sisterly love?
03:56My mom screamed at me,
03:58completely ignoring the crowd around us.
04:00People started whispering and laughing at me.
04:02I finally raised my head.
04:04You taught me, Mom.
04:05It was her who used my actual life
04:08to teach me that family ties mean absolutely nothing.
04:11Vivian, don't you dare regret this.
04:14Lucian is going to become a phoenix one day!
04:17Serena's mocking voice echoed behind me.
04:19But I didn't care.
04:20I just held the black wolf tightly and walked away.
04:23Just wait and see.
04:25Without my high-quality magic crystals,
04:27Lucian will be lucky if he even grows feathers.
04:30Back in my room, the exact second the magic crystals sank into the black wolf's forehead,
04:35he shook his fur out.
04:37Right before my eyes,
04:38he transformed into a tall, breathtakingly handsome man.
04:43His dark green eyes locked onto me.
04:45In that exact second, I forgot how to breathe.
04:48If I knew he was this hot in my past life,
04:51I would have dragged him home way sooner.
04:54Are you... hungry?
04:56Do you want some raw meat or something?
04:58I swallowed hard, trying to hide how desperately I wanted him.
05:02The black wolf narrowed his eyes,
05:04and my heart skipped a beat.
05:06Holy crap.
05:07He's even hotter now.
05:08This brooding, dangerous energy.
05:11Can I really handle a guy like him?
05:15Don't move.
05:17The black wolf suddenly leaned in,
05:18and my entire world stopped.
05:22I'm Cedric.
05:23We wolves only choose one mate for life.
05:25We live together,
05:26and we die together.
05:28I want to imprint your face into my mind,
05:31so I will never forget you.
05:33Then you better look closely.
05:34I smirked, grabbed his collar,
05:36and slammed him straight onto the bed.
05:38Damn, wolves are built differently.
05:41He felt so good.
05:43What... what are you doing?
05:44Cedric's face instantly turned bright red,
05:47and his wolf ears popped out from his head.
05:51I pinched his fluffy ears.
05:53Say honey.
05:54He gasped and mumbled it.
05:56Honey.
05:57Then instantly pooped back into his little wolf form
06:00out of pure embarrassment.
06:04I burst out laughing,
06:05and buried my face right into his chest fur.
06:08At first, he tried to push me away a little,
06:11but he didn't dare use any real strength,
06:14because he was terrified of hurting me.
06:16I refused to move.
06:18Seeing that he couldn't get me off,
06:20he just sighed,
06:21threw his head back,
06:22and totally gave up.
06:24I used to hear that wolves were the most loyal mates,
06:27but I never expected him to be this obedient.
06:30He looks so dangerous.
06:33But his attitude is literally perfect.
06:36In my past life, I chose Lucian.
06:39I had to babysit and beg him for days
06:41before he finally agreed to form the mate bond.
06:44That basic-ass bird had a terrible temper
06:48and was so high-maintenance.
06:50Serena definitely doesn't have the patience to baby him,
06:54so good luck to them.
06:55Thinking about this,
06:57I realized I had found a true treasure.
07:00I hugged Cedric tighter
07:02and nuzzled him again.
07:03Suddenly,
07:04a loud shriek cut through the air,
07:07followed by a massive crash outside.
07:10Serena's room completely collapsed,
07:12and Lucian was still stuck in the pool inside.
07:15She stood by the water,
07:16screaming her lungs out at Lucian.
07:18But the second she turned around
07:19and saw me walking out of my room,
07:21our eyes locked.
07:22Serena shrieked and pointed a finger at me.
07:25You did this on purpose just to laugh at me,
07:28didn't you, Vivian?
07:29Telling mom you're bullying me!
07:31Before, whenever she threatened to tell mom,
07:33I would always cave.
07:35But this time, I just crossed my arms,
07:37leaned against the door,
07:38and gave her a cold smirk.
07:40Go ahead.
07:41Serena lost her mind and charged right at me.
07:44It wasn't like I couldn't beat her in a fight.
07:46I just used to let her win
07:47because I didn't want to make mom sad.
07:49But now, I'm done holding back.
07:52My face went completely numb.
07:54Before I could even raise my hand to touch her,
07:56a black shadow flew past her.
07:59Slamming Serena straight into the dirt,
08:01Cedric let out a deep, low growl.
08:04Cedric.
08:05His sharp claws pinning Serena right by her throat.
08:09Serena couldn't even scream anymore.
08:12She couldn't even breathe.
08:14Right on cue, mom rushed in.
08:17Serena! Serena!
08:20Then she turned to me, furious.
08:23Make him let her go immediately!
08:24Are you trying to kill your own sister?
08:27Seeing how panicked she was for Serena
08:29made my heart ache with a cold, sharp pain.
08:32Even though I didn't care about her love anymore,
08:35I had sensed her energy minutes ago.
08:38If it had been me getting beaten up instead of Serena,
08:41she probably would have hid behind Serena's back
08:44and waited until it was over to show up.
08:47Mom, Cedric knows what he's doing.
08:50This is just intimate sisterly bonding.
08:53Don't take it too seriously.
08:55I threw her exact words right back in her face.
08:59Mom raised her hand to slap me,
09:01but I dodged it easily.
09:04Mom, if you touch me even once,
09:07I'll have Cedric rip her throat out.
09:11She finally backed down,
09:13terrified that Serena would actually die.
09:15I couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
09:18We are both her daughters,
09:19but in her heart,
09:20we aren't even in the same league.
09:23Mom, I can tell Cedric to let her go,
09:26but you have to promise you won't blame him.
09:28I'll try to get revenge.
09:30If anything happens to Cedric,
09:32I'm holding you personally responsible.
09:34Mom's face went completely pale.
09:36Is this how you talk to your own mother?
09:39Are you seriously interrogation room
09:42threatening me right now?
09:46I never wanted to,
09:48but you always side with Serena.
09:50Today, Serena attacked me first,
09:53and without even asking what happened,
09:55you tried to slap me.
09:57You can treat me like garbage all you want,
09:59but Cedric is my mate.
10:02I won't let him suffer for me.
10:05I wasn't acting heartbroken
10:06and mistreated for my mom's sake.
10:08Serena had made such a huge scene
10:10that a massive crowd had gathered around us,
10:12whispering.
10:13Whether mom agreed to my terms or not today,
10:15everyone was going to see her
10:16for the biased, unfair mother she really is.
10:19Hearing the crowd murmuring,
10:21mom finally snapped and agreed.
10:23Cedric let go of Serena
10:24and walked slowly back to my side.
10:26His eyes locked onto my mom,
10:29completely on guard to protect me.
10:31I gently patted his head,
10:32telling him it was okay to relax.
10:34Mom couldn't care less about me right now.
10:36She started shoving expensive magic crystals
10:38into Serena's mouth like they were candy.
10:41The second Serena choked back to consciousness,
10:43she pointed a finger at me,
10:45spitting venom.
10:46You bitch!
10:48Just wait until Lucian turns into a phoenix!
10:51I'm going to ruin your life!
10:53He's going to become a phoenix,
10:55and I'm going to make him rip you to shreds!
11:00I just smirked.
11:01Can't wait.
11:02She really thinks Lucian turning into a phoenix
11:05is a blessing?
11:06I have absolutely no reason to warn her.
11:08Let her die holding onto her stupid little phoenix dream.
11:12That day, I actually asked Cedric about it.
11:15Wasn't he terrified that mom would just snap
11:17and kill him on the spot?
11:19But Cedric just looked at me and said,
11:21if a wolf can't even protect his own mate,
11:24living is a disgrace.
11:25He'd rather die.
11:26I immediately pinned him down on the bed
11:28and told him to say honey a few more times.
11:31But he refused.
11:33With a quick flash of light,
11:34he pooped right back into his black wolf form.
11:37Honestly, works for me.
11:39I got to bury my hands in his thick, warm fur
11:42and pet him even more.
11:44Ever since Serena defended him last time,
11:47things between her and Lucian had gotten a lot better.
11:50Three months flew by.
11:51Rumors started spreading all over the city
11:53that even though Serena was a total brat,
11:56she treated her beast husband like royalty.
11:59She was piling mountains of expensive magic crystals
12:02on Lucian like they cost nothing.
12:03I teased Cedric.
12:05Are you jealous?
12:06Cedric wrapped his arms around me from behind.
12:08Vivian, do you think I'm stupid?
12:10Magic crystals are useless without the eternal flame.
12:14Louie and his all show and no bite.
12:16I burst out laughing,
12:18turning around to hook my arms around his neck.
12:20Who knows?
12:22What if the terrifying wolf clan
12:24is actually just all bath and no tight?
12:28Well, I paid for my big mouth real quick.
12:32The next morning,
12:33I didn't even have the strength to crawl out of bed.
12:38A few days later,
12:39Mom suddenly called me to her room.
12:41This time,
12:42I hit a dagger in my clothes.
12:44Cedric noticed,
12:45and he walked right in with me.
12:48Serena was cuddling in Mom's arms,
12:50looking at me with this smug smirk.
12:52Every single time she wanted to steal my stuff,
12:55she made that exact face.
12:57I stopped in my tracks.
12:58She looked me and Cedric up and down, sneering.
13:01Vivian's beast husband looks completely useless.
13:04Mom, we should just give her share
13:06of the magic crystals to my Lucien instead.
13:09Just like in my past life,
13:11she was eyeing my resources again.
13:13No way.
13:13I said, my voice ice cold.
13:16Serena mocked me
13:17and immediately turned to whine to Mom.
13:19Mom comforted her,
13:20then glared at me coldly.
13:22Serena is right.
13:23You two are sisters.
13:25Luvian needs high-maintenance care.
13:27Hand your magic crystals over to Serena.
13:30Looking at how entitled this mother-daughter duo was,
13:32memories of how they used to abuse me in my past life,
13:36rushed back.
13:37They had always treated me like a tool,
13:39using guilt trips and family love to drain me
13:42and force me to give up everything.
13:44But I've already died once.
13:46No way in hell am I making the same mistake.
13:49I said, no.
13:50My resources are already less than Serena's.
13:53Plus, you constantly give her extra scungs under the table, Mom.
13:56I'm not blind.
13:57Mom, you don't need to keep bullying me just to please Serena.
14:01You're a mother.
14:02You wouldn't starve one daughter to death
14:04just to spoil the other, right?
14:06I gave her one long, deep look,
14:08then turned around and walked out with Cedric.
14:11Mom just stood there, completely frozen.
14:13It seemed like having all her years of toxic favoritism
14:16dragged out into the daylight shocked even her.
14:20After that day, Mom didn't come looking for me again.
14:23But the magic crystals delivered to my room got less and less.
14:26At first, it was barely enough for me and Cedric.
14:29By the end, it couldn't even cover Cedric's basic training needs.
14:33Yet, even with this pathetic amount of crystals,
14:35I still took a portion and secretly handed them out to the city guards
14:39and poor citizens who were also getting their resources cut.
14:43When the entire city started whispering with anger,
14:46I knew my moment had arrived.
14:50I'm going to see Mom.
14:52Bring the citizens and follow me right after,
14:54I said, stroking Cedric's thick fur.
14:57He shook his fur and instantly melted into his human form.
15:02He grabbed my hand and slapped it right onto his rock-hard abs.
15:07I heard you like touching these.
15:08The texture under my palm was so good,
15:11I couldn't help but give them a hard squeeze.
15:13Before Cedric could even react, I vaulted right out the window.
15:18The second I closed the window, the smile wiped off my face.
15:22Replacing it with an icy, heartbroken expression,
15:25I walked straight into Mom's room.
15:27By now, Lucien had already transformed into a teenage boy.
15:31Birds were always famous for their looks, and he was no exception.
15:35Serena was gushing to Mom about how gorgeous and talented Lucien was.
15:40But the moment I stepped inside, the room went dead silent.
15:45Mom and Serena glared at me at the exact same time,
15:48their annoyed faces looking identical.
15:50I just pretended not to notice.
15:52Mom, the magic crystals distributed to everyone are getting lower and lower.
15:56Did you only cut my share, or did you steal from all the citizens too?
16:00I stared straight into Mom's eyes.
16:02Of course everyone's got cut!
16:03Why is everyone else fine, but you're the only one starting drama?
16:07Serena blurted out.
16:08Mom tried to stop her, but it was too late.
16:11Her loud mouth was heard perfectly by the crowd of citizens Cedric had brought,
16:15right outside the door.
16:16The citizens' faces instantly dropped.
16:18So that's why our magic crystals keep disappearing!
16:21No wonder I felt like I couldn't even survive lately.
16:25They're literally stealing from us!
16:27The city hasn't been under attack or anything.
16:29Did they steal our stuff just to fund Serena's beast?
16:36Serena never expected a whole mob to show up, her face flushed red with panic.
16:41You set me up on purpose, didn't you?
16:44The words came out of your own mouth.
16:47Did I put a knife to your throat and force you to say it?
16:50I looked down at her coldly.
16:51In my past life, she stole resources from the citizens all the time.
16:56But back then, no one spoke up.
16:59So she got away with it.
17:00This time is different.
17:02She confessed out loud.
17:04There's no wiggling out of this.
17:07Serena!
17:08Mom snapped, stopping her from digging a deeper hole.
17:12With so many angry citizens watching, Mom had no choice but to bite the bullet and own up to it.
17:19Mom, since everyone's resources are cut anyway, from now on give my entire crystal allowance to the city guards and
17:24the citizens.
17:25I'll just take whatever I earn from doing dangerous missions.
17:29Absolutely not!
17:30Mom screamed automatically.
17:31If she lost my massive share of magic crystals, how the hell was she going to sponsor Serena's expensive lifestyle?
17:39The citizens stared at Mom in absolute shock.
17:42Forget a city ruler.
17:44Even a normal, everyday family wouldn't force their own kid to do deadly missions just to buy basic supplies.
17:50The crowd's eyes turned incredibly hostile as they glared at Mom and Serena.
17:55A ruler this greedy, wasteful, and blindly biased was completely unfit to lead them.
18:02Mom knew she was losing the crowd.
18:03But she just couldn't let go of me, her personal cash cow.
18:07I let my shoulders drop, letting out a heavy, tragic sigh.
18:11Mom, if that's how it is, then I'll just be like Serena.
18:14I won't do any work anymore.
18:17Surely the city won't let me starve to death.
18:20Hearing this, Mom completely panicked.
18:23No!
18:23How can you compare yourself to Serena?
18:25I cut her off instantly.
18:27We used to be different, but right now, I can barely even stay alive.
18:31Serena said her Lucien is a god, right?
18:33Then let Lucien go out and protect the city from now on.
18:37Vivian, no! You can't leave us!
18:40The citizens started begging.
18:42The only reason they used to ignore Serena's disgusting overspending was because I was carrying the entire city on my
18:49back.
18:49Now that they had pushed me to quit, this whole city was going to collapse.
18:55Feeling the burning, hateful glares of the citizens, Serena's eyes turned bloodshot.
19:01Her Lucien was going to become a phoenix.
19:04Why wouldn't these peasants just believe her?
19:07Just wait.
19:08One day, when Lucien unleashes his phoenix form, she is going to make every single person here crawl and regret
19:16today.
19:17Fine! Who cares?
19:20Mom, kick them all out!
19:23Once my Lucien turns into a phoenix, I am banishing every single one of these peasants from our city!
19:29Serena couldn't handle the burning stares of the crowd anymore.
19:32She was 100% convinced Lucien's phoenix awakening was a done deal.
19:37Mom could never stand seeing her favorite child upset.
19:40Plus, looking at how confident Serena was, Mom just nodded and agreed.
19:45As the citizens left, they openly spat on the ground.
19:51Gossiping about how Serena had completely lost her mind.
19:55Yeah, turning into a phoenix was possible, but it was a one in a million miracle.
20:02I honestly couldn't wait to see Serena's face when she realized Lucien's transformation wasn't a gift of good luck at
20:08all.
20:09While the crowd mocked Serena, they practically cried tears of regret as they watched Cedric and me leave the city
20:16gates.
20:19Mom, of course, didn't even show up.
20:22She just sent a messenger telling me to stay away and think about what I've done.
20:27She honestly thought her giving me the cold shoulder would break my heart.
20:32In my past life, it totally did, but in this life.
20:36Looking back at the thousands of citizens cheering my name, my heart was practically bursting with joy.
20:42That tiny, toxic crumb of motherly love meant absolutely nothing compared to taking over the throne.
20:50With Cedric by my side, I dove straight into the dark forest where I had found the eternal flame in
20:55my past life.
20:57This time, with Cedric backing me up and no useless Lucien dragging me down, the mission was a total breeze.
21:06On our way out of the forest, we started hearing crazy rumors about Serena.
21:11The word on the street was that Serena was a once-in-a-century prodigy who could predict the future.
21:17I literally laughed out loud.
21:20Of course she knew the future, because she was a reincarnated bitch, just like me.
21:25Sitting across from me now, Cedric had completely shed his boyish innocence.
21:30His sharp, chiseled face was full of dangerous alpha energy, melting into pure tenderness only when he looked at me.
21:38What are you laughing at?
21:39Cedric asked, thoughtfully refilling my drink.
21:42Getting a little tipsy, I playfully hooked my finger under his chin.
21:46Do you regret it?
21:48If you had chosen the prodigy that day, you'd be living the lavish life right now.
21:52Oh, really?
21:54Cedric's eyes darkened with a sudden heat, his powerful arm locked around my waist, pulling me flush against him.
22:01Yeah, I stopped laughing real quick.
22:04Cedric was absolutely ruthless in bed.
22:07The day we finally returned to the clan, Serena was standing in the center of the Grand Hall with Lucien,
22:13surrounded by a worshipping crowd, like she was some kind of queen.
22:17She had hyped up her prophecy so much that everyone blindly believed Lucien was about to become a god.
22:25Catching sight of me, Serena smirked triumphantly from the center of the crowd.
22:30Oh, Vivian, you're back.
22:33They actually appointed me as the official next city lord early.
22:37You aren't mad, are you?
22:39The surrounding citizens turned around to look at us,
22:42their eyes darting away in guilt when they saw me and Cedric.
22:46I didn't say a word.
22:49Serena strutted over to me.
22:52Honestly, Vivian, don't be bitter.
22:54Lucien is about to become a phoenix.
22:56A phoenix is a million times more important to this city than a basic wolf who only knows how to
23:01kill.
23:01Serena had no clue that I was reincarnated too.
23:05She kept flexing Lucien right in my face.
23:08Lucien is doing so much better with me than he ever would have with you.
23:12I bet you couldn't even afford a single magic crystal.
23:16We definitely fed him well.
23:18He's all show and no bite.
23:21In our past life, I had poured mountains of high-grade magic crystals in dilution.
23:26Even though he stayed in a child's form back then,
23:28he was bursting with pure, radiant spiritual energy.
23:32Now, he looked stiff, clumsy, and totally bloated.
23:37Stuffed to the brim with cheap, mismatched crystals until he became a fat, useless coward.
23:42Maybe it was just my imagination, but I thought I saw a flash of agony cross Lucien's face.
23:48But I didn't give a crap about him anymore.
23:51Cedric stepped forward, casually leaning behind me.
23:54Just his sheer presence made Lucien flinch and take a terrified step back.
23:58Cedric's embarrassment instantly turned into pure rage.
24:03Just wait and see!
24:05Lucien is definitely turnix!
24:07It's destiny!
24:09She screamed like a maniac, ordering guards to pile up even more magic crystals.
24:13The crowd swarmed around her.
24:16Mom gave me one cold, dead look before turning back to Cedric with a face full of blind pride.
24:22Everyone was freezing me out.
24:23But Cedric stood right in front of me.
24:26Like always, he wanted to block every single piece of hate coming my way,
24:31whether it was physical or verbal.
24:33I gently tapped Cedric's shoulder.
24:35It's okay.
24:37Go ahead.
24:38Today was his day to awaken too.
24:41Inside the awakening circle, under the greedy eyes of the entire city,
24:45Lucien's body flickered with a tiny spark of light, but that was it.
24:49It just flickered.
24:51He stayed exactly the same, with absolutely no signs of a phoenix evolution.
24:56The excited crowd started murmuring, their faces twisting into doubt.
25:01This is impossible.
25:03It can't fail.
25:06A sudden roar of cheers erupted from the back.
25:10Serena snapped her head up in pure joy.
25:12I knew it!
25:13Lucien is my good luck charm!
25:15He did it!
25:16But as she followed the light, her smile shattered.
25:19The magic crystals piled around Lucien were completely dull and dead.
25:25Instead, from a dusty corner of the hall,
25:27a blinding, roaring pillar of sacred light shot straight into the sky.
25:32The awakening succeeded.
25:34And it was Cedric who did it.
25:44Serena lost her mind and charged at Cedric like a rabid dog.
25:48I didn't hesitate.
25:50I kicked her straight in the chest, sending her flying across the floor.
25:54Vivian!
25:55How dare you!
25:56He's just a damn black wolf!
25:58How could you lay a hand on your own sister?
26:00Mom instantly shielded Serena in her arms, glaring at me like she wanted to eat me alive.
26:07He's just a wolf?
26:09I stared back at my mother, genuinely wondering how a person's heart could be so disgusting and twisted.
26:16He is my husband!
26:17If his awakening gets interrupted, it could kill him!
26:21Besides, Cedric's evolution is unlocking an ancient primordial bloodline!
26:28It's just a stupid wolf evolution!
26:31How could that ever be more important than Serena?!
26:34Mom shrieked automatically.
26:35An animal unlocking an ancient primordial bloodline could instantly double the entire clan's military power.
26:42Yet, in her mouth, it was garbage compared to her useless, failed daughter Serena.
26:47I stopped wasting my breath on her, and turned directly to the crowd.
26:52Do you want a useless Lucian and a greedy city lid who does nothing but steal your resources?
26:57Or do you want a real leader who can actually protect and feed you?
27:01The citizens didn't even have to think.
27:04Mom's constant stealing of their crystals and her disgusting disrespect towards a sacred evolution
27:09had already destroyed any loyalty they had left.
27:12They immediately swarmed forward, forming a human wall in front of Cedric,
27:18screaming out every single injustice Mom had ever done to me.
27:22I just watched Mom.
27:24I watched her hold Serena tight, desperately stuffing the citizens' sacred crystals into Serena's mouth like a lunatic.
27:31As for Lucian, who had completely failed his evolution?
27:34His fate of being thrown out like trash was sealed.
27:38He stood alone in the corner, totally helpless, his eyes welling up with tears as he stared at me.
27:44I had no idea why he looked so heartbroken.
27:47And frankly, I didn't care.
27:50As the blinding pillar of light finally faded, Cedric slowly stood up.
27:55The entire hall erupted into wild, deafening cheers.
27:59Cedric's magic had officially breached the absolute peak of power.
28:05Serena finally snapped out of it, but she just kept whispering over and over again like a broken record.
28:12I looked down at her, feeling absolutely ecstatic.
28:15Serena, you still don't get it, do you?
28:17Yeah, Lucian needed magic crystals to become a phoenix, but he needed the eternal flame even more.
28:23And to get that flame, you have to risk your actual life.
28:27Oh, I forgot to tell you, I grabbed the eternal flame in this life too, except this time, I gave
28:33it to Cedric.
28:34Hearing that I was reincarnated too, a chaotic mix of shock, terror, and pure rage flashed through Serena's eyes.
28:42I stood there, thoroughly enjoying the sight of her mental breakdown.
28:46I kept this a secret for so long just to save it for this exact moment.
28:51Lucian becoming a phoenix was her ultimate hope for two entire lifetimes.
28:55The higher her hopes were, the harder she crashed.
28:59Missing it by a hair, nothing hurts worse than that.
29:03Serena started shaking violently.
29:05She let out one final, desperate screech, stiffened up, and fainted right on the spot.
29:11Serena!
29:12Mom clutched her own chest, turning to glare at me with pure venom.
29:16Vivian, break your mate bond with Cedric right now!
29:20Hand Cedric over to Serena.
29:22At that exact moment, it felt like an icicle had pierced straight through my heart.
29:26But then, Cedric grabbed my cold fingers, squeezing my hand tightly in his palm.
29:31He took a massive step forward, unleashing a wave of alpha pressure so suffocating that even Mom couldn't stand her
29:38ground.
29:40If you want to die, keep talking.
29:43Cedric growled.
29:44I forced my emotions down and looked at her coldly.
29:48Mom, I am never giving him up.
29:52Vivian!
29:53You are still my daughter, and I am still the city lord!
29:57You must obey me!
29:59I gave her a pitiful look.
30:02Have you seriously not noticed?
30:04You've completely lost the people.
30:07And my power passed yours a long time ago.
30:10I raised my hand, a ball of terrifying magic swirling at my fingertips.
30:15Mom looked at the citizens, whose eyes were filled with pure disgust, and then looked back at the magic in
30:21my hand.
30:22The despair in her eyes grew deeper and deeper.
30:25Still, she forced her spine straight, whispering maniacally.
30:28I gave birth to you.
30:30You have to listen to me!
30:32I will never pass the city lord throne to you.
30:37I'm saving it for Serena!
30:40Cedric looked at her with pure disgust.
30:42Vivian, let's go.
30:44I'm taking you back to the wolf clown.
30:46The second his voice dropped, Lucian, who had been thrown aside like garbage this entire time, suddenly fell to his
30:53knees.
30:54He yelled at the top of his lungs.
30:56Please ascend the throne, new set master!
31:00The citizens snapped out of it, and instantly followed suit.
31:04Please ascend the throne, new city lord!
31:06Please ascend the throne, new city lord!
31:09Their chants grew louder and louder, shaking the entire hall.
31:13Under the deafening roars, mom looked like she aged 20 years in a single second.
31:18She held fainted Serena tightly and stopped speaking.
31:21Her reign was officially dead.
31:25Mom carried Serena away.
31:27I immediately ordered the citizens to take over the city smoothly.
31:32When the spirit elks arrived at the palace, mom was actually trying to force one of them to form a
31:37contract with Serena.
31:38For years, Serena had been draining that poor elk to feed Lucian's energy.
31:42It was covered in scars, and could barely even fight back.
31:46Thank god we got there just in time.
31:48Stop right now!
31:51Catherine, you absolute psycho!
31:53I never knew you were this disgusting!
31:56From this day on, the spirit elk clan is your sworn enemy!
32:01It's you!
32:02You did this, didn't you?
32:03You just hate seeing Serena happy!
32:07I personally apologized to the spirit elks, and handed Serena over to them to do whatever they wanted.
32:14In my past life, the spirit elks went extinct because Serena forced them to evolve.
32:20Using them for two lifetimes?
32:22This disgusting end is exactly what she deserves.
32:28Because of me and Cedric, the spirit elk clan didn't cut ties with our city.
32:33They even left an elk princess behind as a symbol of our new alliance.
32:38After the spirit elks left, I used absolute, brutal force to crush every single rebel group in the city.
32:45I forced Mom to officially abdicate, and took over as the new city lord.
32:49I threw Mom straight into the dungeon.
32:52That exact dungeon was the place she used to lock me in whenever I didn't obey her,
32:58cutting my resources and forcing me to kneel on the freezing floor to reflect.
33:02I went down to see her one last time.
33:07And I told her everything about the past life.
33:10I told her how I practically bled out for the family,
33:13only for her to stand by and watch while Serena drove a poisoned dagger straight into my stomach.
33:19I told her how, as my last drop of blood drained away,
33:23she just held Serena and told me to be the bigger person and forgive her.
33:29I genuinely never understood why you hated me so much.
33:33Because you are nothing compared to Serena!
33:36Do you get it now?
33:38You are just a disgusting piece of trash!
33:41Now, I don't need to understand anymore, Mom.
33:45From now on, it's your turn to beg for my love.
33:49But don't worry.
33:51I will never love you.
33:55No, me!
33:56I didn't even wait for her reply.
33:59I turned around and slammed that heavy iron door shut forever.
34:03Cedric was waiting for me right outside the door.
34:06The second he sensed my energy,
34:08a heartbreakingly tender smile melted across his incredibly handsome face.
34:13He naturally reached his hand out to me.
34:15Instantly, his burning warmth wrapped entirely around me.
34:18We looked at each other and smiled.
34:20Is it all over?
34:22Did her words hurt you?
34:23I let him pull me straight into his broad, muscular chest.
34:27Listening to his steady, powerful heartbeat,
34:29I took a deep breath of his warm scent.
34:31No.
34:33Honestly, it made me completely let go.
34:36Hearing her say those words out loud made me realize I don't even feel sad anymore.
34:40Cedric,
34:41In my past life,
34:42I was like a beggar starving for a single crumb of motherly love.
34:47But now I get it.
34:49If someone doesn't love you,
34:51doing more is just a waste of time.
34:53The breeze was still warm and the sun was blindingly bright.
34:56I have a man who loves me to death and I have an entire empire at my feet.
35:01Why waste a single second wondering why a toxic person didn't like me?
35:05Years later,
35:06the spirit elks finally sent news about Serena.
35:08She had been forcibly refined into a living magic crystal.
35:12She can't live.
35:13She can't die.
35:14She's just a battery harvested by anyone and everyone until the end of time.
35:18She's just a battery harvested by anyone and everyone until the end of time.
