“Your Majesty…”
Cough, cough.
Isabella’s face was filled with pain under the weight of the black hand formed by gravity and summoned by King Landhar III. She could not breathe properly as blood flowed down the corners of her mouth.
Compared to the pain, her eyes were filled with sorrow.
Isabella was once a maid in the palace. More than ten years ago, when King Landhar III was still a prince and had a good relationship with Avril, she worked as a gardener in the palace. She was responsible for handling the flowers and plants every day.
At that time, she saw King Landhar III bring Avril to the palace for a date many times a day. Avril was born in the Elven kingdom and liked pansies. King Landhar III ordered someone to get a handful of pansy seeds secretly. He sprinkled them in the King’s garden and cultivated a large flower bed of pansies as a gift for Avril.
However, the garden’s layout had been changed without permission, so the King punished all the staff that worked in the garden, and Isabella was no exception. However, she did not hate King Landhar III because of that. Instead, she was a little envious that Avril had such a sweetheart.
As part of the palace staff, she could only see the palace guards, who never smiled. Who would not want to be in a romantic relationship as a young girl?
After that, she paid more attention to King Landhar III and Avril.
She heard that King Landhar III used magic to create fireworks on Avril’s birthday, making a massive heart in the sky that caused a sensation in the city.
She also heard that King Landhar III ran barefoot through every healer’s residence in the capital because Avril was sick. He did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to bring all the healers back with him.
The story between King Landhar III and Avril was the only happy thing she could enjoy in that prison-like palace. Unknowingly, she brought herself into the story. She imagined herself as the heroine and thought that all of that was her experience.
However, she knew that it would remain an illusion in her life. She was only a maid; she would not get to enjoy such sweet romance. She did not know that the heavens would hear her plea and give her a chance.
Not long after she fell in love with King Landhar III, a series of internal conflicts broke out in the capital. First, King Landhar II reported that the Demoness Church was an evil sect that had bewitched everyone’s hearts. As a saintess, Avril was more than an evil demoness. So, King Landhar II sent troops to surround the Demoness Church. Then, it was rumored that King Landhar III was willing to kill two of his royal sisters for Avril and led an army to besiege the main hall. It was a heinous act that forced King Landhar II to abdicate his throne.
When Isabella learned of that, she felt uneasy but also secretly happy. So, she made a difficult decision. When King Landhar III besieged the royal palace, she sent the guards to tell King Landhar III about the palace’s layout.
Perhaps with her help, King Landhar III’s army quickly broke through the palace, and he became the new king. At that time, King Landhar III came to her. He told her that Avril had bewitched him to do such a thing. He had already begun to order the removal of the Demoness Church in the whole kingdom.
At the same time, because of Isabella’s actions, he had lost only a minimal amount of soldiers. He wanted to repay Isabella by letting her make a request.
“Marry me and let me be the mother of your children. That is my request. ”
That was Isabella’s request.
King Landhar III was bewitched by Avril, and he had fallen in love with an evil woman. How pitiful! Even though King Landhar III loved the wrong woman, the things he did for Avril were not fake. Isabella thought she would get the same experience, and she would become the happiest woman in the kingdom.
After she made her request, King Landhar III hesitated for a long time but agreed to her request. The wedding was held, and she gave birth to his first child, Benson. The name meant father figure in the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
Over the next ten years, Isabella gave birth to two more princes and a princess. She felt like she was already the happiest person until she heard about the death of her two sons. However, King Landhar III did not care about that. He even said that he had never loved her. She felt like her world had collapsed.
She fell in love because she envied another person’s love story. In the end, all that was just her imagination. She had lived for love all her life. That love had disappeared, so she did not want to live anymore.
Isabella closed her eyes and prepared to welcome her death as she thought about the past ten years. However, the pain that she expected did not come. That made her subconsciously look up, and she saw a hand appear and grab King Landhar III’s arm, stopping him from making any further movements.
“Frier, this is not you. Don’t you pity the woman who has been by your side for more than ten years?”
“Avril, Isabella became my wife after you died. I have no feelings for her; I only needed her to give me heirs! In my heart, there is only one queen in the kingdom. She has to die so that you can become my queen.”
Avril was the one who stopped King Landhar III. At that moment, King Landhar III’s expression had darkened as he tried to comfort Avril.
“If we really do love each other, does it matter if I am the Queen? Frier, please stop. Otherwise, you’d better kill me. I’m already dead anyway.”
“I… Okay, I promise you.”
King Landhar III sighed and released his hand, letting Isabella fall to the ground.
Avril walked toward Isabella and extended her hand to her. “Are you okay? Can you get up?”
Isabella had a conflicted look in her eyes. She pushed Avril’s hand away. “Go away. I don’t need your pity!”
Avril was happy. Even though she had been dead for more than ten years, there were still two men who missed her. They even asked Watson to cast the resurrection spell. In comparison, Isabella was much more miserable. No one cared about her son’s death, not even the man she loved the most. He even wanted to kill her.
“Isabella, right? It’s not pity. I just think that you should not die so easily! The gods said that humans should learn to be humble and respectful, but I believe humans should learn to be brave. One should not back down. One should be brave to move forward. There is nothing in this life that makes us unable to move forward. That is the true essence of the Demoness Church that I founded. I hope that people can seek their own answers instead of seeking gods. At the same time, I hope that people can learn to control their own emotions and desires. Seeking death when encountering difficulties is an escape. You still have a son and a daughter waiting for you. You can’t be responsible for them if you die, right? ”
“I—”
Avril’s words made Isabella, who had been begging for death, waver.
At that moment, Avril turned around and looked at Watson, who was not far behind her. “Watson, come here for a moment.”
“Me?”
Watson had a strange expression on his face. After Avril nodded, he walked toward her.
“Watson, it seems like you were the one who resurrected me. Since you have the ability to revive me, you must be able to resurrect Miss Isabella’s sons! I hope that you can help me alleviate that lady’s pain. The gods will definitely forgive your sins, and the people will praise your mercy.”
“I’ll try.” Watson nodded subconsciously. He realized that something was wrong. As a human that he had created, how could Avril instruct him to work for her instead? Furthermore, she was full of mercy and forgiveness. It felt like she was a fraud. However, her words were inexplicably provocative, and he almost agreed to it.
Denise had told him that, as the Saintess of the Demoness Church, Avril was very skilled at managing the church. Initially, he did not believe it, but he had changed her mind.
“Miss Avril, I can agree to your request, but it is not for free. After all, Queen Isabella just tried to assassinate me. I can help to resurrect her two sons. In return, you have to agree to one of my requests. ”
“You’re such a brat. Helping others is a virtue, so you should not ask for anything in return. Your pettiness is just like my brother’s. Are you my brother’s child?” Avril’s face was full of affection. She looked at Sylvan.
Sylvan’s face reddened. “Well, it is not wrong to say that he’s my child. After all, our relationship is as good as a father and son.”
He would be proud to have Watson as his son. Unfortunately, he agreed with Watson; he did not want her sister to take advantage of him.
“Miss Avril, you’ve misunderstood. I’m only friends with Lord Sylvan. I have parents.”
Watson looked at Isabella and said, “Queen Isabella, I can resurrect the two princes. In any case, resurrecting two more people is a piece of cake.. But, like Miss Avril, you need to agree to one of my requests.”
