📝 Synopsis:
Reborn, I Gave Birth to the True Dragon King's Twins. Got this one for you.
Pierce took everything from Sloane. Her newborn. Her dragon heart-core. Her life. He threw her baby into lava and left her to die on the storm altar. But she didn't stay dead. She woke up seven years earlier, remembering everything.
She let him choose her sister Mira. She let him believe Mira would give him the golden heir. She bound herself to Corvin — a cursed raven everyone laughed at. Then Mira's golden egg hatched a black serpent. And Sloane's egg hatched twins: a Supreme Gold Dragon and a Blackwing royal. The raven was the true Dragon King. Pierce was just a fraud in stolen scales.
The reveal is everything. The revenge is absolute.

微电影文字稿
00:04I wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon, then he wanted everyone to see the monster
00:10I gave birth to, I did not object, I was waiting for that day too, after I laid my dragon
00:15in, I started to worry, Mira had laid a golden dragon in, before the shell even cracked, gold light kept
00:22rising over its surface, the elder confirmed it himself, before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire.
00:30That had never happened in dragon history, everyone said it had to be a high born gold dragon, Mira was
00:36surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations, Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration, once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take
00:45the throne as the next dragon sovereign, and I had also laid a dragon egg, the dragon court had never
00:51seen before, that egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon, half of it was black, the other half
00:57was pure white,
00:58There was a faint silver pattern, where the black and white went, the elder only looked at it once, before
01:05declaring it an ominous egg, he said it would bring disaster to the dragons, nobles began coming to the court
01:12one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out, ten days before the dragon eggs were
01:19supposed to hatch, something strange happened in the court, Mira's maid died in her own children, while she was alive,
01:26she had always supported Pierce,
01:27She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was ominous, when the guards found her, there
01:33was no complete body in the chamber, only a small serpent head remained, burned black, after the news spread, the
01:40whole court began whispering, the nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse, I secretly kept the snake head,
01:46it was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic, during those days, Corvan was not
01:52in the dragon court, he said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic, on
01:56the day the dragon egg
01:59I felt uneasy, my dragon egg, and Mira's dragon egg, were placed on the bloodline platform, below the platform, nobles
02:08crowded together, everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon hatch, Pierce Calder held our newborn above lava, while my
02:17blood ran across the storm altar, dragon binding chains locked my arms behind the execution stake, look at it, slow!
02:26Gray scales, no wing buds, no wing buds, this is the air you gave me, this pure blooded child cost
02:35me the throne, he smiled and threw our sun down, then he cut my dragon heart core from my chest
02:45and offered it to the storm bloodline team, when I opened my eyes again, I was back at the mating
02:53rite,
02:54Seven years earlier, king Rowan and my father raised his staff, the husband of whichever princess first bears a highborn
03:00gold dragon hatchling, will become the next dragon sovereign to pass, my nine brothers were cursed in the dragon war,
03:08doomed to sleep forever,
03:10Meera and I were the royal line's last dragon daughters.
03:13To preserve pure royal dragon blood, my father prepared this mating rite for us.
03:18I was the purest highborn gold dragon.
03:21In my last life, I married Pierce, another gold dragon, yet bore a lowborn grey dragon.
03:27Meera, born to a lower white dragon bloodline, gave her husband a highborn gold dragon.
03:32Pierce hated me, costing him the throne, and brutally murdered me and my child.
03:38My chest still hurt.
03:40I would never forget the pain of having my dragon heart core carved out.
03:44I watched Pierce walk to the center.
03:47Before Pierce appeared, the dragon core had gone years without a new male gold dragon.
03:52Pierce was only a lowborn gold dragon.
03:54My father was still pleased.
03:56Pierce, will you bind with Princess Sloane?
03:58You are both gold dragons.
03:59Your chance of bearing a highborn gold dragon is strong.
04:02Pierce did not answer me.
04:04He passed me and stopped in front of Meera.
04:07I choose Princess Meera very well.
04:13Clearly, Pierce had been reborn too.
04:16The entire dragon core stayed silent for a long time.
04:19No one had expected Pierce to choose Meera.
04:21After all, Meera was only a white dragon, with little chance of bearing a gold dragon.
04:25Pierce, are you certain?
04:27Meera is...
04:28I know Princess Meera is only a white dragon.
04:30And her bloodline is not as noble as Princess Sloane's.
04:33But I fell for Princess Meera at first sight.
04:35I ask your majesty to bless us.
04:37In this life, Pierce thought Meera would give him the gold hatchet and I never could.
04:41Meera also thought Pierce's choice meant she was a complete one.
04:44Both of them were wrong.
04:45I have heard many rumors about Princess Sloane.
04:49I know my choice is wise.
04:52I heard Princess Sloane often goes alone to the cursed border and returns with her clothes barely fastened.
04:56No wonder Pierce will not bind with her.
04:58Who would marry a loose woman?
04:59Pierce wanted to make me unmarriageable before the mating rite ended.
05:02I wanted to expose him right there.
05:04I wanted to tell them Pierce was only a servant and he was a witchcraft to become a gold dragon.
05:08But finding proof would take more time.
05:10So I swallowed the truth and watched him choose his own death.
05:12The thing Meera would hatch later would speak louder than anything I could say.
05:16My father's face hardened.
05:18Enough!
05:19This is a mating rite, not a trial of my daughter.
05:22Sloane, do you have someone to choose?
05:24Everyone turned to look at me.
05:25I lifted my eyes to the highest black iron being in the banquet.
05:29He was no ordinary raven.
05:31He was the cursed descendant of an ancient Blackwing royal bloodline.
05:35After I died in my last life, my soul did not vanish.
05:38After Pierce sacrificed my dragon heart for with secret magic, he gained enormous power.
05:43He began slaughtering all of Draven.
05:45In the end, Corven broke through his curse, became a Blackwing dragon and depleted Pierce.
05:51Only then did the slaughter come out.
05:53His bloodline was the one truly worthy of life.
05:58I choose him.
05:59Has the princess gone mad? She wants to bind with a raven!
06:02Pierce froze, then laughed out loud.
06:04Sloane, to get yourself married off, you would choose to bind with a raven?
06:08I did not look at him. I only stared at the raven.
06:10Will you bind with me?
06:12The raven spread his wings and dropped from the beam.
06:15The moment he touched the floor, thick fog rolled through the hall.
06:18He raised his silver-gray eyes and knelt on one end.
06:23As you wish, princess.
06:26At that moment, every dragon fire in the court went out.
06:30A priest rushed forward and struck Flint over the nearest crazy.
06:33The flame returned, tiny and unstable.
06:37Pierce seized that moment.
06:39Your Majesty, this is not a blessing.
06:41He has brought the filth of the cursed border into the court.
06:44Sloane, you were pushed too far.
06:45Take those words back now and no one will blame you.
06:48If no one is willing to marry you, I will beg Pierce to bind with both of us.
06:51Is Princess Mira simply too kind?
06:53Maybe Princess Mira really can bear a highborn gold dragon, actually.
06:56You are right.
06:56The gods always favor kind girls, not dirty ones.
07:01Mira enjoyed the noble's praise.
07:04She lifted her chin and looked at me.
07:06She was certain I would never agree.
07:08She only said it to win their praise.
07:10I walked to the contract table.
07:14Dragon court law says a rejected princess may choose again during the mating rite.
07:18If the chosen man agrees aloud, the court must record the contract.
07:21That old law was carved into the black stone behind my father.
07:25No one could pretend not to know it.
07:28Corvan looked only at me.
07:30Are you certain princess?
07:33I am certain.
07:36The contract recorder opened the royal legend.
07:40My name was written beside his.
07:45After the contract was recorded, we left the main hall.
07:48Before we reached the outer doors, Mira caught up with us.
07:52Congratulations, sister.
07:53She glanced at Corvan's wings and hid a laugh behind her hand.
07:57Tell me, what can a gold dragon and a raven hatch?
08:00A black and gold raven.
08:02What I give birth to is none of your concern.
08:06I think what you hatch later will be far more interesting.
08:09Mira did not understand what I meant, but she instinctively felt uneasy.
08:13I walked past her.
08:15Pierce blocked the corridor ahead.
08:19What exactly do you know?
08:22What do you think I should know?
08:25For one second, a ruthless look flashed across his face.
08:29I sensed that he wanted to kill me.
08:31Last life you-
08:32Corvan stepped forward and cut him off.
08:34Let go.
08:35Pierce's gold fire flashed on his palm.
08:38Corvan raised his wings in front of my arm.
08:40Most of the fire went out against the wings.
08:43But one spark raised my wrist.
08:45Pierce stared at the dead spark in his palm.
08:48His gold fire, created through witchcraft, was blocked.
08:53Who exactly are you?
08:56Her husband.
09:01Pierce's gold fire was blocked by a raven's wings.
09:05Pierce's expression is arguing.
09:07Will Sloane, you think choosing a monster can change the ending?
09:11At least your ending will not change.
09:13Before Pierce could step forward, Corvan raised his wings in front of me.
09:17You will regret this.
09:18I will not regret it, because I did not marry you.
09:21Corvan lowered his eyes to my wrist.
09:23The place Pierce had grabbed was already red.
09:26After we left the dragon court, we went to Corvan's residence.
09:29There were no servants and no one from the court.
09:32We lit the fire pits, then took out salve and clean bandages.
09:37The red mark was deep.
09:38Pierce's nails had nearly broken the skin.
09:40Corvan lowered his head and treated the wound carefully.
09:43His fingertips stopped beside my wrist.
09:45There was still a very faint burn mark.
09:48Pierce's gold fire had left it when it touched me.
09:52This is not natural gold dragon fire.
09:54True gold dragon fire would not leave this kind of mark.
09:57Then what is it?
09:58Corvan seemed to know something.
10:00Maybe I could get the answer I wanted from him.
10:03This fire was created with a sorcerer's forbidden magic.
10:07I suspect Pierce is not a true gold dragon.
10:10Otherwise, he would not need forbidden magic to turn his flames gold.
10:13Corvan was only half right, because Pierce was not even a real dragon.
10:17Corvan taught me how to undo the forbidden magic.
10:19I only had to wait for Mira's child to be healed.
10:22That would be the day Pierce was exposed and disgraced.
10:25After I bound myself to Corvan, he treated me very well.
10:29Corvan was gentle and thoughtful.
10:31In three months, I gained eleven pounds.
10:34I had just finished dinner, when he brought me another glass of milk.
10:37The smell of the milk made me wretch.
10:39I thought I might be pregnant.
10:41I was about to tell Corvan the news.
10:43Then Mira and Pierce barged in.
10:45Slow, I have good news for you.
10:48I am pregnant.
10:50Pierce will be the next dragon sovereign after.
10:53Mira stood proudly, certain she had already won.
10:56She looked arrogant and completely sure of herself.
10:59Is that so?
11:00Then you may be disappointed, because I am pregnant too.
11:04News that Mira and I were pregnant at the same time spread through the entire dragon world.
11:11My father summoned healers to examine us.
11:15Both princesses are indeed pregnant.
11:17And both will give birth to dragon children on the same day!
11:22Your Majesty, since both princesses will give birth on the same day, the court should witness the whole process.
11:27He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
11:30Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
11:33I did not object.
11:34I was waiting for that day too.
11:36After I laid my dragon in.
11:38I started to worry.
11:39Mira had laid a golden dragon in.
11:41Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising on the old surface.
11:47The elder confirmed it herself.
11:49Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire.
11:52That had never happened in dragon history.
11:55Everyone said it had to be a high-born gold dragon.
11:58Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
12:01Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
12:04Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
12:10And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
12:14That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon.
12:18Half of it was black.
12:19The other half was purely white.
12:21There was a faint silver pattern for the black and white.
12:25The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
12:29He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
12:32Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
12:39Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened at the court.
12:44Mira's maid died in her own chamber.
12:47While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
12:50She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was ominous.
12:54When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
12:58Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
13:01After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
13:04The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
13:06I secretly kept the snake head.
13:08It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
13:12During those days, Corvan was not in the dragon court.
13:15He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
13:18On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvan still had not returned.
13:23I fell to onions.
13:24My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
13:29Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
13:31Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon hatch.
13:34Where is your husband?
13:36Is he also afraid he would give birth to a monster, so he ran away early?
13:44Pierce, you think having gold fire makes you a real dragon?
13:47Sloan, are you slapping Pierce? Because I never thought anyone in the royal family could be so vicious.
13:53Just then, someone in the crowd shouted,
13:55The dragon eggs are cracking!
14:03He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
14:07Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
14:10I did not object.
14:11I was waiting for that day too.
14:13After I laid my dragon egg, I started to worry.
14:15Mira had laid a golden dragon egg.
14:18Before the shell even burnt, gold light kept rising over its surface.
14:23The elder confirmed it himself.
14:25Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire.
14:29That had never happened in dragon history.
14:32Everyone said it had to be a highborn gold dragon.
14:35Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
14:38Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
14:41Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
14:46And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
14:51That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon egg.
14:55Half of it was black, the other half was a true white.
14:58There was a faint silver pattern where the black and the white went.
15:02The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
15:06He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
15:09Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
15:16Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened in the court.
15:21Mira's maid died in her own chamber.
15:24While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
15:27She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was ominous.
15:31When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
15:35Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
15:38After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
15:41The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
15:43I secretly kept the snake head.
15:45It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from Forbidden Magic.
15:49During those days, Corvan was not in the dragon court.
15:52He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the Forbidden Magic.
15:55On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvan still nodded.
15:59I felt uneasy.
16:01My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
16:05Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
16:08Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon hatch.
16:13Pierce Calder held our newborn above lava while my blood ran across the storm altar.
16:18Dragonbinding chains locked my arms behind the execution stake.
16:22Look at him! Slow!
16:25Grayscales, no winglines.
16:29This is the air you gave me!
16:32This pure-blooded child cost me the throne!
16:38He smiled and threw our sun down.
16:41Then he cut my dragon heart core from my chest and offered it to the Stormblood Light.
16:50When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the mating rite seven years earlier.
16:54King Rowan, my father, raised his staff.
16:57The husband of whichever princess first bears a highborn gold dragon hatchling will become the next dragon sovereign.
17:04My nine brothers were cursed in the dragon world, doomed to sleep forever.
17:09Mira and I were the royal line's last dragon daughters.
17:13To preserve pure royal dragon blood, my father prepared this mating rite for us.
17:17I was the purest highborn gold dragon.
17:20In my last life, I married Pierce, another gold dragon, yet bore a lowborn gray dragon.
17:26Mira, born to a lower white dragon bloodline, gave her husband a highborn gold dragon.
17:32Pierce hated me for costing him the throne and brutally murdered me and my child.
17:37My chest still hurt.
17:39I would never forget the pain of having my dragon heart core carved out.
17:43I watched Pierce walk to the center.
17:46Before Pierce appeared, the dragon court had gone years without a new male gold dragon.
17:51Pierce was only a lowborn gold dragon.
17:53My father was still pleased.
17:55Pierce, will you bind with Princess Sloane?
17:57You are both gold dragons.
17:59Your chance of bearing a highborn gold dragon is strong.
18:01Pierce did not answer it.
18:03He passed me and stopped in front of Mira.
18:07I choose Princess Mira there.
18:13Clearly, Pierce had been reborn too.
18:15The entire dragon court stayed silent for a long time.
18:18No one had expected Pierce to choose Mira.
18:20After all, Mira was only a white dragon, with little chance of bearing a gold dragon.
18:25Pierce, are you certain?
18:26Mira is-
18:27I know Princess Mira is only a white dragon, and her bloodline is not as noble as Princess Sloane's.
18:32But I fell for Princess Mira at first sight.
18:34I ask your majesty to bless us.
18:36In this life, Pierce thought Mira would give him the gold hatchling I never could.
18:40Mira also thought Pierce's choice meant she had completely won.
18:43Both of them were wrong.
18:44I have heard many rumors about Princess Sloane.
18:48I know my choice is wise.
18:51I heard Princess Sloane often goes alone to the cursed border and returns with her clothes barely fastened.
18:55No wonder Pierce will not bind with her.
18:57Who would marry a loose woman?
18:58Pierce wanted to make me unmarriageable before the mating right ended.
19:01I wanted to expose them right there.
19:03I wanted to tell them Pierce was only a servant who used witchcraft to bring him a gold dragon.
19:07But finding proof would take more time.
19:09So I swallowed the truth and watched him choose his own death.
19:12The thing Mira would hatch later would speak louder than anything I could say.
19:15My father's face parted.
19:17Enough!
19:18This is a mating right, not a trial of my daughter.
19:21Sloane, do you have someone to choose?
19:23Everyone turned to look at me.
19:25I lifted my eyes to the highest black iron being in the Banker.
19:28He was no ordinary raven.
19:30He was the cursed descendant of an ancient Blackwing royal bloodline.
19:34After I died in my last life, my soul did not vanish.
19:37After Pierce sacrificed my dragon heart for a secret magic, he gained enormous power.
19:42He began slaughtering all of dragons.
19:45In the end, Corvan broke through his curse, became a Blackwing dragon, and defeated Pierce.
19:50Only then did the slaughter end.
19:52His bloodline was the one truly worthy.
19:57I choose him.
19:58Has the princess gone mad? She wants to bind with a raven!
20:01Pierce froze, then laughed out loud.
20:03Sloane, to get yourself married off, you would choose to bind with a raven?
20:07I did not look at him. I only stared at the raven.
20:10Will you bind with me?
20:11The raven spread his wings and dropped from the beam.
20:14The moment he touched the floor, thick fog rolled through the hall.
20:17He raised his silver-gray eyes and knelt on one knee.
20:22As you wish, princess.
20:26At that moment, every dragon fire in the court went out.
20:29A priest rushed forward and struck flint over the nearest razor.
20:33The flame returned, tiny and unsteady.
20:36Pierce seized that moment.
20:38Your majesty, this is not a blessing.
20:40He has brought the filth of the cursed border into the court.
20:43Sloane, you were pushed too far.
20:44Take those words back now and no one will blame you.
20:47If no one is willing to marry you, I will beg Pierce to bind with both of us.
20:51Princess Mira is simply too kind.
20:53Maybe princess Mira really can bear a highborn gold dragon hatchling.
20:55You are right.
20:56The gods always favor kind girls, not dirty ones.
21:01Mira enjoyed the noble's praise.
21:03She lifted her chin and looked at me.
21:05She was certain I would never agree.
21:07She only said it to win their praise.
21:10I walked to the contract table.
21:13Dragon court law says a rejected princess may choose again during the mating rite.
21:17If the chosen man agrees aloud, the court must record the contract.
21:20That old law was carved into the black stone behind my father.
21:25No one could pretend not to know it.
21:27Corvan looked only at me.
21:29Are you certain princess?
21:32I am certain.
21:35The contract recorder opened the royal legend.
21:39My name was written beside his.
21:44After the contract was recorded, we left the main hall.
21:47Before we reached the outer doors, Mira caught up with us.
21:51Congratulations, sister.
21:53She glanced at Corvan's wings and hid a laugh behind her hand.
21:56Tell me, what can a gold dragon and a raven hatch?
22:00A black and gold raven?
22:01What I give birth to is none of your concern.
22:05I think what you hatch later will be far more interesting.
22:08Mira did not understand what I meant, but she instinctively felt uneasy.
22:12I walked past her.
22:14Pierce blocked the corridor ahead.
22:18What exactly do you know?
22:21What do you think I should know?
22:24For one second, a ruthless look flashed across his face.
22:28I sensed that he wanted to kill me.
22:30Last life you...
22:32Corvan stepped forward and cut him off.
22:34Let go.
22:34Pierce's gold fire flashed to his palm.
22:37Corvan raised his wings in front of my arm.
22:40Most of the fire went out against the wings.
22:42But one spark grazed my wrist.
22:45Pierce stared at the dead spark in his palm.
22:47His gold fire, created through witchcraft, was blocked.
22:52Who exactly are you?
22:56Her husband.
23:00Pierce's gold fire was blocked by a raven's wings.
23:04Pierce's expression dropped me.
23:06Sloan, you think choosing a monster can change the ending?
23:10At least your ending will not change.
23:12Before Pierce could step forward, Corvan raised his wings in front of me.
23:16You will regret this.
23:17I will not regret it, because I did not marry you.
23:20Corvan lowered his eyes to my wrist.
23:22The place Pierce had grabbed was already red.
23:25After we left the dragon court, we went to Corvan's residence.
23:29There were no servants and no one from the court.
23:31We lit the fireplace, then took out salve and clean bandages.
23:36The red marked his teeth.
23:37Pierce's nails were nearly broken his skin.
23:40Corvan lowered his head and treated the wound carefully.
23:42His fingertips stopped beside my wrist.
23:44There was still a very faint burn room.
23:47Pierce's gold fire had left it and it touched me.
23:51This is not natural gold dragon fire.
23:54A true gold dragon fire would not leave this kind of mark.
23:56Then what is it?
23:58Corvan seemed to know something.
24:00Maybe I could get the answer I wanted from him.
24:02This fire was created with a sorcerer's forbidden magic.
24:06I suspect Pierce is not a true gold dragon.
24:09Otherwise, he would not need forbidden magic to turn his flames gold.
24:12Corvan was only half right because Pierce was not even a real dragon.
24:16Corvan taught me how to undo the forbidden magic.
24:19I only had to wait for Mira's child to be healed.
24:21That would be the day Pierce was exposed and disgraced.
24:24After I bound myself to Corvan, he treated me very well.
24:28Corvan was gentle and thoughtful.
24:30In three months, I gained 11 pounds.
24:33I had just finished dinner when he brought me another glass of milk.
24:36The smell of the milk made me wretch.
24:38I thought I might be pregnant.
24:40I was about to tell Corvan the news.
24:42Then Mira and Pierce barged in.
24:45Sloane, I have good news for you.
24:47I am pregnant.
24:49Pierce will be the next dragon sovereign after all.
24:52Mira stood proudly, certain she had already won.
24:55She looked arrogant and completely sure of herself.
24:58Is that so? Then you may be disappointed.
25:00Because I am pregnant too.
25:03The news that Mira and I were pregnant at the same time spread through the entire dragon ward.
25:10My father summoned healers to examine us.
25:14Both princesses are indeed pregnant.
25:16Both will give birth to dragon children on the same day.
25:21Your majesty, since both princesses will give birth on the same day, the court should witness the whole process.
25:26He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
25:29Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
25:32I did not object.
25:33I was waiting for that day too.
25:35After I laid my dragon head, I started to worry.
25:38Mira had laid a golden dragon head.
25:41Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising over its surface.
25:45The elder confirmed it himself.
25:48Before hatching, it already had a stable gold firing range.
25:52That had never happened in dragon history.
25:54Everyone said it had to be a high horn gold dragon.
25:57Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
26:01Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
26:04Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
26:09And I had also laid a dragon egg.
26:11The dragon court had never seen nothing.
26:13That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon egg.
26:17Half of it was black.
26:18The other half was pure white.
26:20There was a faint silver pattern where the black and white went.
26:25The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an anonymous egg.
26:29He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
26:32Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
26:38Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened.
26:43In the court, Mira's maid died in her mansion.
26:46While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
26:49She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was on this.
26:54When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
26:57Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
27:00After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
27:03The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
27:06I secretly kept the snake head.
27:07It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
27:11During those days, Corvan was not in the dragon court.
27:14He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
27:18On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvan still had not returned.
27:22I felt uneasy.
27:23My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
27:28Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
27:30Everyone wanted to see Mira's highbron gold dragon hatch.
27:33Where is your husband?
27:35Is he also afraid he would give birth to a monster so he ran away early?
27:39What?
27:39What?
27:43Pierce, you think having gold fire makes you a real dragon?
27:46Flo!
27:47Are you slammering Pierce?
27:48Because I never thought anyone in the royal family could be so vicious.
27:52Just then, someone in the crowd shouted,
27:54The dragon eggs are cracking!
28:02He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
28:06Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
28:09I did not object.
28:10I was waiting for that day too.
28:12After I laid my dragon egg, I started to worry.
28:15Mira had laid a golden dragon egg.
28:17Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising over its surface.
28:23The elder confirmed it himself.
28:25Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire.
28:28That had never happened in dragon history.
28:31Everyone said it had to be a highborn gold dragon.
28:34Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
28:38Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
28:40Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
28:46And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
28:50That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon.
28:54Half of it was black, the other half was pure white.
28:57There was a faint silver pattern where the black and the white meant.
29:01The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
29:06He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
29:08Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
29:15Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened in the court.
29:20Mira's maid died in her own chamber.
29:23While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
29:26She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was ominous.
29:31When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
29:34Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
29:37After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
29:40The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
29:42I secretly kept the snake head.
29:44It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
29:48During those days, Corvan was not in the dragon court.
29:51He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
29:55On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvan still had not returned.
29:59I felt uneasy.
30:00My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
30:05Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
30:07Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon hatch.
30:12Pierce Calder held our newborn above lava while my blood ran across the storm altar.
30:17Dragon binding chains locked my arms behind the execution stake.
30:21Look at him. Slow!
30:24Gray scales, no wing buds.
30:28This is the air you gave me!
30:31This impure-blooded child cost me the throne!
30:37He smiled and threw our sun down.
30:41Then he cut my dragon heart core from my chest and offered it to the storm bloodline.
30:49When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the mating rite seven years earlier.
30:53King Rowan, my father, raised his staff.
30:56The husband of whichever princess first bears a highborn gold dragon hatchling will become the next dragon sovereign.
31:03My nine brothers were cursed in the dragon world, doomed to sleep forever.
31:09Mira and I were the royal line's last dragon daughters.
31:12To preserve pure royal dragon blood, my father prepared this mating rite for us.
31:17I was the purest highborn gold dragon.
31:19In my last life, I married Pierce, another gold dragon, yet bore a lowborn gray dragon.
31:25Mira, born to a lower white dragon bloodline, gave her husband a highborn gold dragon.
31:31Pierce hated me for costing him the throne and brutally murdered me and my child.
31:36My chest still hurt.
31:38I would never forget the pain of having my dragon heart core carved out.
31:42I watched Pierce walk to the center.
31:45Before Pierce appeared, the dragon court had gone years without a new male gold dragon.
31:50Pierce was only a lowborn gold dragon.
31:52My father was still pleased.
31:54Pierce, will you bind with Princess Sloane?
31:56You are both gold dragons.
31:58Your chance of bearing a highborn gold dragon is strong.
32:01Pierce did not answer.
32:02He passed me and stopped in front of Mira.
32:06I choose Princess Mirabelle.
32:12Clearly, Pierce had been reborn too.
32:14The entire dragon court stayed silent for a long time.
32:17No one had expected Pierce to choose Mira.
32:19After all, Mira was only a white dragon, with little chance of bearing a gold dragon.
32:24Pierce, are you certain?
32:26Mira is...
32:27I know Princess Mira is only a white dragon, and her bloodline is not as noble as Princess Sloane's.
32:31But I fell for Princess Mira at first sight.
32:34I ask your majesty to bless us.
32:35In this life, Pierce thought Mira would give you the gold hatchet I never could.
32:39Mira also thought Pierce's choice meant she had completely won.
32:43Both of them were wrong.
32:44I have heard many rumors about Princess Sloane.
32:47I know my choice is wise.
32:50I heard Princess Sloane often goes alone to the cursed border and returns with her clothes barely fastened.
32:54Hmph. No wonder Pierce will not bind with her.
32:56Who would marry a loose woman?
32:57Pierce wanted to make me unmarriageable before the mating night.
33:00I wanted to expose him right there.
33:02I wanted to tell them Pierce was only a serpent who used witchcraft to become a gold dragon.
33:06But finding proof would take my time.
33:08So I swallowed the truth and watched him choose his own death.
33:11The thing Mira would hatch later would speak louder than anything I could say.
33:14My father's face hardened.
33:16Enough!
33:17This is a mating rite, not a trial of my daughter.
33:21Sloane, do you have someone to choose?
33:22Everyone turned to look at me.
33:24I lifted my eyes to the highest black iron villain in the bedroom.
33:27He was no ordinary raven.
33:29He was the cursed descendant of an ancient blackwing royal bloodline.
33:33After I died in my last life, my soul did not vanish.
33:36After Pierce sacrificed my dragonheart with secret magic, he gained enormous power.
33:42He began slaughtering all of dragons.
33:43In the end, Corvan broke through his purse, became a blackwing dragon, and defeated Pierce.
33:50Only then did the slaughter end.
33:51His bloodline was the one truly worthy of him.
33:56I choose him.
33:57Has the princess gone mad?
33:59She wants to bind with a raven!
34:00Pierce froze, then laughed out loud.
34:02Sloane, to get yourself married off, you would choose to bind with a raven?
34:06I did not look at him.
34:07I only stared at the raven.
34:09Will you bind with me?
34:10The raven spread his wings and dropped from the beam.
34:13The moment he touched the floor, thick fog rolled through the wall.
34:17He raised his silver-gray eyes and knelt on one knee.
34:21As you wish, princess.
34:25At that moment, every dragon fire in the court went out.
34:28A priest rushed forward and struck Flint over the nearest raising.
34:32The flame returned, tiny and unsteady.
34:35Pierce seized that moment.
34:37Your Majesty, this is not a blessing.
34:39He has brought the filth of the cursed border into the court.
34:42Sloane, you were pushed too far.
34:44Take those words back now and no one will blame you.
34:46If no one is willing to marry you, I will beg Pierce to bind with both of us.
34:50Princess Mira is simply too kind.
34:52Maybe princess Mira really can bear a highborn gold dragon, Ashley.
34:54You are right.
34:55The gods always favor kind girls, not dirty ones.
35:00Mira enjoyed the noble's praise.
35:02She lifted her chin and looked at me.
35:04She was certain I would never agree.
35:07She only said it to win their praise.
35:09I walked to the contract table.
35:12Dragon court law says a rejected princess may choose again during the mating rite.
35:16If the chosen man agrees aloud, the court must record the contract.
35:19That old law was carved into the black stone behind my father.
35:24No one could pretend not to know it.
35:26Corvan looked only at me.
35:28Are you certain princess?
35:31I am certain.
35:35The contract recorder opened the royal legend.
35:38My name was written beside his.
35:43After the contract was recorded, we left the main hall.
35:47Before we reached the outer doors, Mira caught up with us.
35:51Congratulations, sister.
35:52She glanced at Corvan's wings and hid a laugh behind her head.
35:55Tell me, what can a gold dragon and a raven hatch?
35:59A black and gold raven?
36:01What I give birth to is none of your concern.
36:04I think what you hatch later will be far more interesting.
36:07Mira did not understand what I meant, but she instinctively felt uneasy.
36:12I walked past her.
36:13Pierce blocked the corridor ahead.
36:17What exactly do you know?
36:20What do you think I should know?
36:24For one second, a ruthless look flashed across his face.
36:28I sensed that he wanted to kill me.
36:30Last life, you...
36:31Corvan stepped forward and cut him off.
36:33Let go.
36:34Pierce's gold fire flashed on his paw.
36:36Corvan raised his wings in front of my arm.
36:39Most of the fire went out against the wings.
36:41But one spark raised my wrist.
36:44Pierce stared at the dead spark in his palm.
36:46His gold fire, created through witchcraft, was blocked.
36:51Who exactly are you?
36:55Her husband.
36:59Pierce's gold fire was blocked by a raven's wings.
37:03Pierce's expressions aren't broken.
37:05Sloane, you think choosing a monster can change the ending?
37:10At least your ending did not change.
37:12Before Pierce could step forward, Corvan raised his wings in front of me.
37:15You will regret this.
37:16I will not regret it, because I did not marry you.
37:19Corvan lowered his eyes to my wrist.
37:21The place Pierce had grabbed was already red.
37:24After we left the dragon court, we went to Corvan's residence.
37:28There were no servants and no one from the court.
37:31We lit the fireplace, then took out salve and clean bandages.
37:35The red mark was deep.
37:37Pierce's nails had nearly broken his skin.
37:39Corvan lowered his head and treated the wound carefully.
37:42His fingertips stopped beside my wrist.
37:44There was still a very faint burn mark.
37:46Pierce's gold fire had left it and it touched me.
37:50This is not natural gold dragon fire.
37:53True gold dragon fire would not leave this kind of mark.
37:55Then what is it?
37:57Corvan seemed to know something.
37:59Maybe I could get the answer I wanted from him.
38:01This fire was created with a sorcerer's forbidden magic.
38:05I suspect Pierce is not a true gold dragon.
38:08Otherwise he would not need forbidden magic to turn his flames gold.
38:11Corvan held only half right, because Pierce was not even a real dragon.
38:15Corvan taught me how to undo the forbidden magic.
38:18I only had to wait for Mira's childhood.
38:20That would be the day Pierce was exposed and disgraced.
38:24After I bound myself to Corvan, he treated me very well.
38:27Corvan was gentle and thoughtful.
38:29In three months, I gained eleven pounds.
38:32I had just finished dinner, when he brought me another glass of milk.
38:36The smell of the milk made me wretch.
38:38I thought I might be pregnant.
38:39I was about to tell Corvan the news.
38:41Then Mira and Pierce barged in.
38:44Slow.
38:44I have good news for you.
38:46I am pregnant.
38:49Pierce will be the next dragon sovereign after all.
38:51Mira stood proudly, certain she had already won.
38:54She looked arrogant and completely sure of herself.
38:57Is that so?
38:58Then you may be disappointed.
39:00Because I am pregnant too.
39:02The news that Mira and I were pregnant at the same time spread through the entire dragon court.
39:09My father summoned healers to examine us.
39:13Both princesses are indeed pregnant.
39:15And both will give birth to dragon children on the same day.
39:20Your majesty, since both princesses will give birth on the same day, the court should witness the whole process.
39:25He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
39:28Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
39:31I did not object.
39:33I was waiting for that day too.
39:34After I laid my dragon egg, I started to worry.
39:37Mira had laid a golden dragon egg.
39:40Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising over its surface.
39:45The elder confirmed it himself.
39:47Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire.
39:50That had never happened in dragon history.
39:53Everyone said it had to be a highborn gold dragon.
39:57Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
40:00Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
40:03Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
40:08And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
40:13That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon egg.
40:16Half of it was black.
40:18The other half was pure white.
40:20There was a faint silver pattern where the black and white were red.
40:24The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
40:28He said it would bring disaster to dragons.
40:31Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
40:38Seven days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened in the court.
40:43Mira's maid died in her own chamber.
40:45While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
40:49She was also the first person to publicly say,
40:51My dragon egg was ominous.
40:53When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
40:56Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
40:59After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
41:02The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
41:05I secretly kept the snake head.
41:07It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
41:11During those days, Corban was not in the dragon court.
41:13He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
41:17On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corban still had not returned.
41:21I felt uneasy.
41:23My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
41:27Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
41:29Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon hatch.
41:33Where is your husband?
41:34Is he also afraid he would give birth to a monster, so he ran away early?
41:38What?
41:39What?
41:42Pierce, you think having gold fire makes you a real dragon?
41:46Sloane!
41:46Are you slammering Pierce?
41:48Because I never thought anyone in the royal family could be so vicious.
41:51Just then, someone in the crowd shouted.
41:53The dragon eggs are cracking!
42:01You're not here!
42:02I wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
42:05Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
42:08I did not object.
42:09I was waiting for that day too.
42:11After I laid my dragon egg, I started to worry.
42:14Mira had laid a golden dragon egg.
42:17Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising over its surface.
42:22The Elder confirmed it himself.
42:23Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire in the hatch.
42:28That had never happened in dragon history.
42:30Everyone said it had to be a high-born gold dragon.
42:33Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
42:37Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
42:40Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
42:45And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
42:49That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon.
42:53Half of it was black, and the other half was pure white.
42:56There was a faint silver crown for the black and the white knight.
43:01The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
43:05He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
43:08Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
43:14Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened at the court.
43:19Mira's head died in her own chamber.
43:22While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
43:25She was also the first person to publicly say, my dragon egg was on this.

43:36After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
43:39The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
43:42I secretly kept the snake hand.
43:43It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
43:47During those days, Corvan was not in the dragon court.
43:50He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
43:54On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvan still had not returned.
43:58I felt uneasy.
43:59My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
44:04Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
44:06Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn in the dragon cage.
44:11Pierce Calder held our newborn above lava while my blood ran across the storm altar.
44:17Dragonbinding chains locked my arms behind the execution stake.
44:20Look at him.
44:21Look!
44:23Grace stands.
44:25No wing lights.
44:27This is the error you gave me!
44:31This impure-blooded child cost me the throne!
44:36He smiled and threw our sun down.
44:40Then he cut my dragon heart core from my chest and offered it to the storm bloodlight.
44:48When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the mating rite seven years earlier.
44:53King Rowan, my father, raised his staff.
44:55The husband of whichever princess first bears a highborn gold dragon hatchling will become
45:00the next dragon sovereign.
45:03My nine brothers were cursed in the dragon world, doomed to sleep forever.
45:08Mira and I were the royal line's last dragon daughters.
45:11To preserve pure royal dragon blood, my father prepared this mating rite for us.
45:16I was the purest highborn gold dragon.
45:18In my last life, I married Pierce, another gold dragon, yet bore a lowborn gray dragon.
45:24Mira, born to a lower white dragon bloodline, gave her husband a highborn gold dragon.
45:30Pierce hated me for costing him the throne and brutally murdered me and my child.
45:35My chest still hurt.
45:37I would never forget the pain of having my dragon heart core carved out.
45:41I watched Pierce walk to the center.
45:44Before Pierce appeared, the dragon court had gone years without a new male gold dragon.
45:49Pierce was only a lowborn gold dragon.
45:51My father was still pleased.
45:53Tess, will you bind with Princess Sloane?
45:55You are both gold dragons.
45:57Your chance of bearing a highborn gold dragon is strong.
46:00Pierce did not answer me.
46:01He passed me and stopped in front of Mira.
46:05I choose Princess Mira Vale.
46:11Clearly, Pierce had been reborn too.
46:13The entire dragon court stayed silent for a long time.
46:16No one had expected Pierce to choose Mira.
46:19After all, Mira was only a white dragon, with little chance of bearing a gold dragon.
46:23Pierce, are you certain?
46:25Mira is.
46:26I know Princess Mira is only a white dragon, and her bloodline is not as noble as Princess Sloane's.
46:30But I fell for Princess Mira at first sight.
46:33I ask your majesty to bless us.
46:35In this life, Pierce thought Mira would give him the gold hatch that I never could.
46:38Mira also thought Pierce's choice meant she could be one.
46:42Both of them were wrong.
46:43I have heard many rumors about Princess Sloane.
46:46I know my choice is wise.
46:49I heard Princess Sloane often goes alone to the cursed border and returns with her clothes
46:53barely fastened.
46:54No wonder Pierce will not bind with her.
46:55Who would marry a loose woman?
46:56Pierce wanted to make me unmarriageable before the mating right ended.
47:00I wanted to expose him right there.
47:01I wanted to tell them Pierce was only a servant and host witchcraft to be a gold dragon.
47:05But finding proof would take more time.
47:07So I swallowed the truth and watched him choose his endeavor.
47:10The thing Mira would hatch later would speak louder than anything I could say now.
47:14My father's face hardened.
47:15Enough!
47:16This is a mating right, not a trial of my daughter.
47:20Sloane, do you have someone to choose?
47:21Everyone turned to look at me.
47:23I lifted my eyes to the highest black iron being in the vein.
47:26He was no ordinary raven.
47:29He was the cursed descendant of an ancient blackwing royal bloodline.
47:32After I died in my last life, my soul did not vanish.
47:36After Pierce sacrificed my dragon heart girl with secret magic, he gained enormous power.
47:41He began slaughtering all of dragons.
47:43In the end, Corvan broke through his curse, became a blackwing dragon, and defeated Pierce.
47:49Only then did the slaughter end.
47:51His bloodline was the one truly worthy.
47:55I choose him.
47:57Has the princess gone mad?
47:58She wants to bind with a raven!
47:59Pierce froze, then laughed out loud.
48:02Sloane, to get yourself married off, would you choose to bind with a raven?
48:05I did not look at him.
48:07I only stared at the raven.
48:08Will you bind with me?
48:09The raven spread his wings and blocked down the beam.
48:12The moment he touched the floor, thick fog rolled through the hall.
48:16He raised his silver-gray eyes and knelt on one hand.
48:21As you wish, princess.
48:24At that moment, every dragon fire in the court went out.
48:28A priest rushed forward and struck flint over the nearest crazy.
48:31The flame returned, tiny and unsteady.
48:34Pierce seized that moment.
48:36Your Majesty, this is not a blessing.
48:39He has brought the filth of the cursed border into the court.
48:41Sloane, you were pushed too far.
48:43Take those words back now and no one will blame you.
48:45If no one is willing to marry you, I will beg Pierce to bind with both of us.
48:49Princess Mira is simply too kind.
48:51Maybe princess Mira really can bear a highborn gold dragon, actually.
48:53You are right.
48:54The gods always favor kind girls, not dirty ones.
48:59Mira enjoyed the noble's praise.
49:01She lifted her chin and looked at me.
49:03She was certain I would never agree.
49:06She only said it to win their praise.
49:08I walked to the contract table.
49:11Dragon court law says a rejected princess may choose again during the mating rite.
49:16If the chosen man agrees aloud, the court must record the contract.
49:19That old law was carved into the black stone behind my father.
49:23No one could pretend not to know it.
49:26Vorven looked only at me.
49:27Are you certain, princess?
49:30I am certain.
49:34The contract reporter opened the royal legend.
49:37My name was written beside his.
49:42After the contract was recorded, we left the main hall.
49:46Before we reached the outer doors, Mira caught up with us.
49:50Congratulations, sister.
49:51She glanced at Corven's wings and hid a laugh behind her hand.
49:54Tell me, what can a gold dragon and a raven hatch?
49:58A black and gold raven?
50:00What I give birth to is none of your concern.
50:03I think what you hatch later will be far more interesting.
50:07Mira did not understand what I meant, but she instinctively felt uneasy.
50:11I walked past her.
50:12Pierce blocked the corridor ahead.
50:16What exactly do you know?
50:20What do you think I should know?
50:23For one second, a ruthless look flashed across his face.
50:27I sensed that he wanted to kill me.
50:29Last life, you.
50:30Corven stepped forward and cut him off.
50:32Let go.
50:33Pierce's gold fire flashed in his palm.
50:36Corven raised his wings in front of my arm.
50:38Most of the fire went out against the wings, but one spark grazed my wrist.
50:43Pierce stared at the dead spark in his palm.
50:46His gold fire, created through witchcraft, was blocked.
50:51Who exactly are you?
50:54Her husband and me.
50:59Pierce's gold fire was blocked by a raven's wings.
51:02Pierce's expression darkens me.
51:04Sloane, you think choosing a monster can change the ending?
51:09At least your ending will not change.
51:11Before Pierce could step forward, Corven raised his wings in front of me.
51:15You will regret this.
51:16I will not regret it, because I did not marry you.
51:18Corven lowered his eyes to my wrist.
51:20The place Pierce had grabbed was already red.
51:23After we left the dragon court, we went to Corven's residence.
51:27There were no servants and no one from the court.
51:30He lit the fireplace, then took out salve and clean bandages.
51:34The red mark was deep.
51:36Pierce's nails had nearly broken the skin.
51:38Corven lowered his head and treated the wound carefully.
51:41His fingertips stopped beside my wrist.
51:43There was still a very faint burn mark.
51:46But Pierce's gold fire had left it and it touched me.
51:49This is not natural gold dragon fire.
51:52True gold dragon fire would not leave this kind of mark.
51:55Then what is it?
51:56Corven seemed to know something.
51:58Maybe I could get the answer I wanted from you.
52:00This fire was created with a sorcerer's forbidden magic.
52:04I suspect Pierce is not a true gold dragon.
52:07Otherwise, he would not need forbidden magic to turn his flames gold.
52:10Corven was only half right, because Pierce was not even a real dragon.
52:14Corven taught me how to undo the forbidden magic.
52:17I only had to wait for Mira's child to be healed.
52:20That would be the day Pierce was exposed and disgraced.
52:23After I bound myself to Corven, he treated me very well.
52:26Corven was gentle and thoughtful.
52:29In three months, I gained 11 pounds.
52:31I had just finished dinner when he brought me another glass of milk.
52:35The smell of the milk made me wretch.
52:37I thought I might be pregnant.
52:38I was about to tell Corven the news.
52:40Then Mira and Pierce barged in.
52:43Sloane, I have good news for you.
52:46I am pregnant.
52:48Pierce will be the next dragon sovereign after me.
52:51Mira stood proudly, certain she had already won.
52:54She looked arrogant and completely sure of herself.
52:57Is that so?
52:57Then you may be disappointed, because I am pregnant too.
53:01News that Mira and I were pregnant at the same time
53:05spread through the entire dragon court.
53:08My father summoned healers to examine us.
53:12Both princesses are indeed pregnant.
53:14And both will give birth to dragon children on the same day.
53:20Your majesty, since both princesses will give birth on the same day,
53:23the court should witness the whole process.
53:24He wanted everyone to see Mira give birth to a gold dragon.
53:28Then he wanted everyone to see the monster I gave birth to.
53:31I did not object.
53:32I was waiting for that day too.
53:34After I laid my dragon egg, I started to worry.
53:37Mira had laid a golden dragon egg.
53:39Before the shell even cracked, gold light kept rising over its surface.
53:44The elder confirmed it herself.
53:46Before hatching, it already had a stable gold fire connection.
53:50That had never happened in dragon history.
53:53Everyone said it had to be a high-born gold dragon.
53:56Mira was surrounded by nobles, offering congratulations.
53:59Pierce also enjoyed the court's admiration.
54:02Once that dragon egg hatched, he could naturally take the throne as the next dragon sovereign.
54:07And I had also laid a dragon egg the dragon court had never seen before.
54:12That egg was twice the size of an ordinary dragon egg.
54:16Half of it was black, the other half was pure white.
54:19There was a faint silver pattern where the black and white lit.
54:23The elder only looked at it once before declaring it an ominous egg.
54:27He said it would bring disaster to the dragons.
54:30Nobles began coming to the court one after another, demanding that father drive me and my dragon egg out.
54:37Ten days before the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, something strange happened to the court.
54:42Mira's maid died in her own chamber.
54:45While she was alive, she had always supported Pierce.
54:48She was also the first person to publicly say it when my dragon egg was on us.
54:52When the guards found her, there was no complete body in the chamber.
54:56Only a small serpent head remained, burned black.
54:59After the news spread, the whole court began whispering.
55:02The nobles said my dragon egg had brought a curse.
55:04I secretly kept the snake head.
55:06It was the first piece of evidence left by the backlash from forbidden magic.
55:10During those days, Corvin was not in the dragon court.
55:13He said he was going to find out which sorcerer was behind the forbidden magic.
55:16On the day the dragon eggs were supposed to hatch, Corvin still did not return.
55:20I felt uneasy.
55:22My dragon egg and Mira's dragon egg were placed on the bloodline platform.
55:26Below the platform, nobles crowded together.
55:29Everyone wanted to see Mira's highborn gold dragon image.
55:32Where is your husband?
55:34Is he also afraid he will give birth to a monster?
55:36So he ran away early.
55:42Pierce, you think having gold fire makes you a real dragon?
55:45Flo, are you slammering Pierce?
55:47Because I never thought anyone in the royal family could be so vicious.
55:50Just then, someone in the crowd shouted.
55:53The dragon eggs are cracking!
55:54Who subscribers?
55:58Whoメ a got caught?
56:00Who's all who's in the royal family?
56:01Get either, he'll beBroong?
56:02Come in, get come in, get come in, don' turn?
56:02Am I prim therefore?
