Chapter 319

‘Pur.’
As I said that, the arrowhead was wrapped in moisture in the air.
I pulled the bowstring.
Swish-!
The arrow that flew through the air lodged Mina’s neck.
Kiik!!
A sharp scream echoed.
***
She remembers the first day she came to this world.
The life she lived as a savior, not a monster like this.
She clearly remembers the moment when she first stepped into the world where she should be.
It was the night when she fell asleep while walking endlessly along the Han River. When she opened her eyes, she was in endless darkness.
Then she arrived at the light after wandering in the darkness without knowing how many hours or days it was.
[I’ve been waiting for you. For a very long time.]
It was the pope who held her hand, when she sat down due to exhaustion.
Behind his back were the five dukes sitting in luxurious chairs.
Those who’s not related to her became a family.
They were her friends, family, and supporters.
Adrian, Henry, Isaac, Johann, and...... Vincent Amity.
He raised her when she fell, cheered her when she was discouraged, and kept her from getting lost in the dark.
At first, they didn’t care about her.
Come to think of it, they were very wary about her.
He was so wary of her that he raised his voice every time he met her.
[What happened to the child of fate at the shopping district?]
[Henry Dubblede, Isaac Dubblede...]
[How dare you, someone from the temple called-]
[Stop it, Isaac.]
[But!]
[Enough. Child, it’s an honor. Do you remember all the names?]
[You don’t have to be that sarcastic every time.]
[Excuse me. The vulgar Dubblede bloodline seems to have disturbed the heart of the precious child.]
It was unfair at first.
Whenever she does something wrong, they scold her.
Soon after, however, she learned why they were overly wary of her.
[Benedict, Is there any way not to keep the Dubblede brothers wary of me? Every time we meet, I feel uncomfortable.....]
[It will be difficult. Because they have a bad history with the temple.]
[What does that mean? Did they have something to do with the temple?]
[When the lords were young, they lost their mother due to a power struggle between their predecessor and the current duke. They misunderstood that the temple intervened in that matter.]
[Oh my gosh...]
If they had lost their mother at such an early age, they could have grown up without knowing affection.
Since they misunderstood the temple, they could have hated her, the child of fate.
After getting to know them, Mina persistently held out her hand.
[Why are you chasing me like this?]
[Don’t assume that you know me just because you have little compassion. It’s a world where a family can even kill each other. It would be easier if we aren’t related. Isn’t it?]
[Don’t come near me anymore.]
She hurt him and got hurt in the process.
One day, she hated it so much that she didn’t know what to do, but when she saw their face again, she felt sorry for them enduring the world alone.
It happened when she wanted to give up.
[Please don’t come! You can’t understand? Huh?!]
[I just, I......]
[When I see you, I think of my mother!]
Isaac, who said so, cried.
Vincent Amity was the father she had longed for.
An ideal noble.
He would never turn a blind eye to injustice.
An honorable knight praised by all people.
A man completely different from her stepfather, who was swallowed up by desire and eventually turned into a criminal.
[Duke. If you do not want to adopt me, please feel free to tell me.]
[...What does that mean?]
[The duke has Leblaine. She may be uncomfortable with me, and the duke may not be happy to have a new daughter. So, even if I’m sad, if the duke doesn’t want me.......]
[Mina.]
[Yes?]
[I mean it. I am very excited to have a new daughter with a noble soul.]
[.......]
[I will give you my surname. Will you be my daughter?]
How nervous my heart was on the day she became Mina Amity.
She was so happy!
Ah yes. This world was the world God gave for her.
She will gladly be the savior for this beautiful world.
She also really liked her new sister. Leblaine Amity was a bit passive, but she was a kind person who knew how to be considerate of others.
Although she’s depressed because she has often let the world down, if she lead her, she will be able to do her job admirably too.
[Leblaine, you’re here? Congratulations on your victory! It’s been a long time since a party. Don’t hide, let’s go.]
[I like it here.]
[It’s not good. It’s dark, so you can’t see anything. You’re afraid it’ll be weird if you go, right?]
[It’s not like that......]
[No. Let’s go, okay? If someone bullies my sister, I’ll protect her.]
She wasn’t reliable, but she was lovely.
She is such a trustworthy person.
She is also the savior of the world.
Someone who can save her poor sister.
‘But why did this happen?’
Mina, who collapsed, looked at Leblaine without moving.
Three brothers of Dubblede running to Leblaine were seen. The Duke of Amity, who was standing, looked at Leblaine while panicking too.
“Kid!”
“Leblaine!”
Isaac and Henry supported Leblaine, who was staggering. Johann also hurriedly looked at her.
The three of them were looking at Leblaine as if they were about to die.
Leblaine frowned and said.
“I’m using too much energy. I’m fine, so I’m going to go to the front row.”
“Go back to the mansion.”
“I’m okay.”
“Please listen to me!”
Henry, who grew pale, shouted.
As if he was worried about himself.
Mina trembled heavily. And she said...
“It’s me.......”
The eyes of the three brothers turned to her.
Mina’s body was slowly returning to its original state.
She clenched her teeth. Tears fill her eyes, blurring my vision.
“It was me who saved the world. Not Leblaine, not that kid...”
“.......”
“.......”
“.......”
“She remembered my relationship with you and pretended to be me. That’s why she took you away...... Please open your eyes.......”
Johann, who was gently staring at Mina crying sadly, slowly opened his mouth.
