The emperor looked down at Argen, but Argen firmly said what he wanted to say. He expressed his feelings, then sat down in a pitiful huddle.

My other half always seemed so strong that others always misunderstand him. They say that he’s just a strong person.

My twin brother, who has many wounds like me, was strong. However, the deep-seated wound was quite deep.

To the extent that no one could understand…….It was clear that only I knew Argen’s deep sentiments.

“I was always so hungry and was starving for days ……. It’s because of us that your majesty didn’t come to Lulahel……”

I hate the feelings that made me happy, yet sad. It’s strange that he keeps taking care of us. I kept looking for that warmth.

I didn’t want to get out of that cozy space, it was as if I was following the light instead of the darkness. I was full and was able to sleep in a warm place. But I also wanted to escape from this space that made us feel pain.

I said I was wary, but my heart kept fluttering when he smiled at us.

I don’t need to be held in his arms. I’d like to say that, but my heart was already wavering.

I’ve never been touched by anyone. I’ve never felt the warmth before, so…….


I know the pain of hunger and I know how terrifying the cold is. That’s why I know how valuable someone’s favor is…….

I say I hate it, but I coudn’t resist it.

However…..No one had the right to say anything to me and Argen without experiencing what we went through.

If I really hated the royal family, I would definitely try to escape instead of just saying that I wanted to leave.

Yet……With my own two feet, I jumped into the pit of pain. It was not only me, but also my other half.

There was no way that a person who felt the warmth after being in a cold place could throw away everything and go back.

Ha…… My breathing became haggard. When I saw Argen, I covered my eyes with both hands and cried.

“U…..Ugh….. Every time, they said that your majesty hated us and left us there. We didn’t do anything wrong.”

“I……Have never…….”

“I don’t believe in lies! Then why didn’t you come? It was only after Lulahel died…You came to us and….”

“I thought we were going to die that day…….”

I really thought I was going to die. They didn’t know how terrified we felt of dying at the hands of our father, who we saw for the first time that day.

“Everytime the servants saw us, they would always tell us that your majesty hated me and Arien very much. That’s why you left us there, and now……… like this right now…….”

Argen’s wounds and my wounds. They probably wouldn’t be able to handle it.

We were still stuck in a deep and painful pit.

“I didn’t. I’ve never hated you.”

“Then why…..”

“Why did you leave us like that?”

“..….”

While the emperor couldn’t move his lips to give us a reply, Argen grabbed my hand and finally entered the bedroom.

I heard a hesitating movement from behind, but because of that little hesitation I realized our position again.

In fact, when I said that, I was stupidly hoping that he would accept us, but that would never happen.

I came up to the bed and covered myself with the blanket. I put my face on the pillow and lowered the curtains even though it was not our bed.

******

She was a woman whose face and name were unknown and a woman who wasn’t worth remembering.

“I……I…… I’m the last Hebi left.”

Perhaps that was what she said. Her words were not bad enough to dare take up the emperor’s time.

“….Hebi…….The forest Spirit?”

“That’s right! A Hebi! The product of a forest that lives under the protection of the elve!”

A being loved by the elves, who are the guardians of the forest. They are loved by elves, born of forests, and live under the power of nature.

Just as there was a royal family loved by God, there was a species in nature that was loved by the forest. The Hebi race no longer existed.

“……You insist that you’re a Hebi, a race who went extinct 500 years ago.”

“That’s 500 years ago! I’m the one who survived alone!”

She was beautiful, but other than that, she was no different from a human being who just reached adulthood.

Hebis were a product of the forest. A species with healing powers and eyes like the Milky Way in the night sky. They were once captured by hunters, who only collected their eyes, before going extinct.

However, the hunters did not know the important facts. Hebis’ eyes no longer exhibited abilities a year or two after it was removed from their bodies.

By the time hunters found out and tried to capture Hebis alive, they were already wiped out from the indiscriminate slaughter.

She insisted that she was a Hebi.

The most convenient way to prove it was true was to show her healing powers.

It was a high-level healing ability that even wizards find difficult to use and an ability that only priests have. It was a very easy ability for Hebis to use because they only needed to make eye contact a few times.

It was revealed that she was the only Hebi left in the world.

“Give me a castle.”

There was only one reason he gave the castle to the Hebi named Lulahel. The only Hebi left in the world, whose value was not something that should be recklessly controlled.

Since she was the only Hebi left, she could be used in many ways.

“……I’m a Hebi. I’m sure I can help your majesty the emperor in many ways…..!”

He made her an adopted daughter of a baron, whom no one cared about, and sent her to the abandoned Derolina castle. He was preparing step by step with the intention of using Lulahel, a Hebi, one day.

The value of a Hebi, who has the ability to heal, is very high, so she deserved that much expectation and time.

Of course, that expectation was short-lived.

“I have your child. Please make me the empress.”

He was giving her special treatment. Everyone knew how well she was treated just from having a private meeting with the emperor.

He didn’t think she’d foolishly mistaken the special treatment. He never had a woman by his side, so he turned his attention to her, who was making an absurd remark.

Unfortunately, she picked the wrong opponent. He took the teacup out of his mouth while paying little attention to the insignificant nonsense.

It was clear that she didn’t know what would happen if she touched on the royal family’s mood even a little bit. Lurahel shook her shoulders as he lifted the pen to handle the documents while letting her go just this once.

“Do you know who I am?! I am the last Hebi!”

He eventually frowned at what he heard. He couldn’t believe the only Hebi left in the world, who can’t even reproduce, was shouting at the emperor.

The maid who was pouring the tea turned white and the aid who was arranging the documents looked at Lulahel in shock.

“Yes, I know very well.”

“So if it’s to that degree……! I’m not short of your majesty’s favor!!”

“I will not put someone who is stupid enough to make a joke of having my child as an empress.”

He slowly tapped his finger on the desk. He wanted to kill her right away, but ridiculously enough, her healing ability had a great influence.

The ability to heal can be achieved just by making eye contact, which is more valuable than hundreds of new priests in the battlefield.

“……It’s true, I have your child…!”

“How ridiculous.”

She didn’t seem to know why the Imperial Family was the Imperial Family. She seemed to be underestimating the strongest person in the food chain, which nobles couldn’t even reach.

“You don’t need a voice to use your healing powers. If you commit one more disrespectful act, I’ll cut your vocal cords.”

Lulahel flinched as if she was shocked by that remark. Soon, she tightly clenched her teeth and trembled. She couldn’t respond for a long time, afterwards, she pointed her finger and screamed.

“Next time! I’ll see you later!”

He barely endured not killing her after she dared to say such a thing to the royal family. That was already enough mercy.

If she had mental problems, he would tie her up and if her mouth was too loose, he would make it impossible to speak. Ridiculously enough, her only value was her eyes.

But a problem arose about half a year later after she left the palace.

There was a war during that half year, so he left for a while. It wasn’t a big war so he didn’t take Lulahel because there wouldn’t be any victims.

When he came back half a year later, it was ridiculous that Lulahel came to see him with a large belly. He had just ended the war without a moment’s rest.

“It’s your majesty’s child.”

“I already told you that I have never embraced you.”

He didn’t know whose child it was, but He thought About calling a priest and finding out who the biological father was first. It was a possible conclusion because he thought it would be good to use them after revealing their presence.

While He was thinking about it, Lulahel licked her lips.

“Blood…….. Hebi can conceive with only the blood of the other person.”

At the end of her words, He looked at Lulahel’s twisted smile as she slowly approached him, instead of drinking the glass of wine.

“On the first day, you wounded yourself in order to prove that I am a hebi.”

He was willing to cut his palm with a dagger because she had the ability to heal. Was it then….?

“If you can’t believe it, look at the baby when it is born! It’ll be blond!”


Lulahel leaned back with a pleasant smile. He didn’t think his judgment was wrong, but it seemed that using her and giving her a castle was a bad choice.

“Why do you keep telling lies?”

“Hahahaha!! It’s not a lie. The strength of the Hebi and the Imperial family did not match well, so it was difficult to conceive, but in the end, it means that the child will be born with both my own strength and the power of the royal family. Everything of the Imperial Family! Everything of the Hebi!”

Her beautiful appearance changed grotesquely and was disgusting. He looked up at the appearance calmly.

“Even though the child may be a weak because those abilities are mutually opposite strengths!! The child in my belly will be blonde, will have a guardian, will be able to manifest, and it will be able to use healing abilities, which is the unique only to the Hebi.”

He calmly watched the bizarre laughter in front of him and stared at Rurahel.

“If your words are true…”

“If it’s true!?”

He looked at the woman who had been swelling in anticipation at the end of his words.

“I’ll kill you.”
