00:02Every elf in Silvarus mocked me as a mute with no magic, no spells, no healing.
00:08My parents gave everything to my older sister, Aurelia Vale.
00:11They made me replace her and sent me as a bride to the dying demon prince, Lucian.
00:15He had been mortally wounded fighting evil dragons and had only a few months left.
00:20Two weeks earlier, the demons threatened our kingdom and demanded Aurelia marry their prince.
00:24By demon law, when a demon died, his bride had to die with him.
00:31I won't marry him. He's dying.
00:35Why should I marry him?
00:37I'm the future elf queen.
00:41Aurelia is the crown princess. She'll be queen one day.
00:44You'll go in her place.
00:46You can't speak or use magic. You're a perfect match for the dying demon prince.
00:50No one cared how I felt. A few words decided my fate, but none of them knew the truth.
00:55I was only pretending to be mute. My words were magic. Everything I said came true.
01:00You will grow again.
01:09Don't worry, little sister. When it's over, I'll personally bring you home.
01:14She was lying. She would never come for me.
01:20Elevon, you're old enough to finally be useful to your kingdom.
01:23My parents showed no sadness. I lowered my head and said nothing. From birth, I had been called the most
01:29useless elf in the kingdom.
01:31At my magic test, the crystal stayed dark. My parents thought I brought them shame. They had never once treated
01:36me kindly. I had no choice.
01:38I could only accept being sent to marry Lucienne in Aurelia's place. On my wedding day, they pushed me into
01:43a carriage.
01:46A mute like you should feel lucky to marry the demon prince. Don't worry. When you die, I'll come collect
01:54your body.
01:56Just before the carriage door closed, I caught the disgust in my parents' eyes. My heart clenched. They only cared
02:02about Aurelia. They had never cared about me.
02:04No bride had ever been sent to her wedding without her family. I must have been the first. Lucien was
02:09too ill for the wedding ceremony.
02:11When I reached the demon kingdom, they took me straight to his chambers.
02:15His highness dislikes noise, so his chambers are deep inside the castle. Please be patient with him. You'll also need
02:22to care for him. Call me directly if anything happens.
02:25I nodded softly. Then I noticed an obsidian coffin covered in frost crystals in the corner. Maybe they had prepared
02:31it for my burial after Lucienne died.
02:33Even in the dark, I knew exactly where Lucien was. He lay on the bed, with black horns and huge
02:38wings behind him.
02:39He was badly wounded and close to death, but his power still filled the room. No wonder demons were so
02:44feared.
02:45Come here.
02:46This was the demon prince who had fought evil dragons for three days and nights. He had driven back an
02:51entire army alone, but was mortally wounded in the battle.
02:54Now he is going to die. I moved a little, then carefully made my way to his side.
03:03Then he placed a bag from the bed into my hands.
03:06I know you were forced to marry me.
03:08I may be a demon, but I won't force an elf to die for me.
03:14There's gold in the bag, along with my ring. It's enough for you to live well.
03:20Take them.
03:23And leave.
03:26I stared at him in surprise.
03:28Your family doesn't want you.
03:31Going back won't change that.
03:34Take my ring and the gold.
03:36Leave this place.
03:38And start over.
03:41That's better.
03:42Than dying for me.
03:44He was right.
03:45I did not want to die or replace Aurelia as his bride.
03:48I shifted uneasily, then suddenly realized something.
03:51He had known Aurelia would not come.
03:53I don't care who came.
03:56I never wanted...
03:58this marriage.
04:01The demon lord and queen demanded one.
04:04They dragged you into this.
04:07But I won't drag you into my grave.
04:11Go.
04:23Leave me.
04:25Go.
04:28I know how bad my condition is.
04:31No healer or mage can save me.
04:33I sat beside him and wiped the blood from his lips.
04:36Then I shook my head firmly.
04:38You're not leaving?
04:41I never expected a demon I had just met to be so kind to me.
04:45This terrifying demon showed me kindness.
04:47Yet my own parents had sent me here to die.
04:49Running away might keep me safe for a while.
04:51But how long could I hide?
04:53If my parents learned I had escaped, they would never let me go.
04:56There was only one way for me to survive.
04:58Lucien had to live.
05:00Even if I die, and you're sacrificed with me...
05:06All right.
05:07If you stay, I'll protect you.
05:10As long as I live, I won't let anyone hurt you.
05:29Lucien, you will become the strongest demon of all.
05:37Everything will be fine.
05:47I kept my eyes closed and did not answer.
05:52Everyone knows you can't speak.
05:54That couldn't have been you.
05:56I must be close to death.
05:57Now I'm hearing things.
05:59My whole body tensed, terrified that he would discover my secret.
06:02After his breathing settled again, I finally opened my eyes.
06:07Lucien, you will get better.
06:10From the day I was born, every elf in the kingdom had called me useless.
06:14Everyone believed I had no magic.
06:16My parents despised me for humiliating them.
06:18They barely admitted I was their daughter.
06:20When Aurelia was young, a beast attacked her while she was climbing a tree.
06:24I stood behind her and whispered...
06:25You will be safe.
06:27That was what saved her, but my parents blamed me for bringing her there.
06:30You little curse.
06:32Your sister is the future queen.
06:33If anything happens to her, you'll pay for it.
06:36After that day, I never spoke again.
06:38Everyone thought I was mute.
06:39No one knew the truth.
06:40I could speak.
06:41But everything I said came true.
06:43The next morning, Lucien sat in bed for a long time after waking.
06:47I handed him some water and looked at him questioningly.
06:50He touched his chest, unable to hide his surprise.
06:53It doesn't hurt anymore.
06:57Since I was wounded, I've woken up in terrible pain every morning.
07:01It felt like every bone and vein in my body was breaking.
07:05But today...
07:06I smiled at him.
07:07Lucien, my words always came true.
07:09You would get better.
07:10I had no magic.
07:11So I could not join the last war against the evil dragons.
07:14I had only overheard my parents talking with Aurelia.
07:17The demon prince crushed an entire dragon army alone.
07:20He's ruthless and terrifyingly powerful.
07:22If he ever attacks the elves, we won't stand a chance.
07:25Once Aurelia marries him, no one will dare attack our kingdom.
07:28But once they learned Lucien was dying, they sent me instead.
07:31Lucien took my hand and pulled me from my thoughts.
07:34Elven.
07:35I'm sorry we couldn't finish the wedding yesterday.
07:38I feel much better today.
07:40I'll take you to meet my parents myself.
07:42He had decided to go because of me.
07:44Both kingdoms knew I carried the title of the demon prince's bride.
07:48They also knew I was doomed to be sacrificed.
07:50My title meant almost nothing.
07:52Yet Lucien was willing to stand beside me.
07:54He would protect me from every cruel rumor.
07:56My heart warmed.
07:58Could you help me up?
07:59I knew what he was thinking.
08:00He was a powerful demon, born into power and watched by the entire kingdom.
08:04Now he was badly wounded and could barely walk.
08:06For someone like him, that humiliation must have been unbearable.
08:10Lucien had his pride.
08:11Yet he was willing to put it aside for me.
08:15Usually, even moving a little feels like blades tearing through my body.
08:19But this time, why doesn't it hurt?
08:22I don't feel anything wrong.
08:24I saw the disbelief in his eyes and slowly helped him toward the door.
08:27Lucien, you gave me gold and a chance to start over.
08:30I would always remember that kindness.
08:32Starting today, everything would change.
08:34You would become the powerful demon prince you once were.
08:37When that day came, I would leave and follow whatever plan you made for me.
08:40The demon kingdom ruled vast lands, and every race feared its royal bloodline.
08:45Lucien was a pure-blood demon prince, far above a powerless elf like me.
08:49If Aurelia had not refused, I could never have become his bride.
08:53Lucien's chambers were isolated from the rest of the castle.
08:56The maids stared in shock when they saw him.
08:58Oh my... His highness is out of bed.
09:02Did his bride drag him out?
09:03How dare she?
09:05He's the demon prince, and she's just a powerless elf.
09:16My lady, you mustn't do this.
09:18His highness is badly wounded.
09:20Walking around could make it worse.
09:22You're his bride.
09:24How could you put him in danger?
09:25Enough!
09:26But I could clearly feel that his power had grown stronger.
09:30Lucien noticed it too.
09:31After speaking, he touched his throat in surprise.
09:36Watch your tongue.
09:37No one speaks against my bride.
09:40Forgive me, your highness.
09:41The headmaid dropped to her knees, shocked that Lucien had defended me.
09:45I was only worried about you, your highness.
09:48The court healer said you should not walk.
09:50You need to rest.
09:52I know what my body can take.
09:54I know what my body can take.
09:56Come, my bride.
09:58When we reached the great hall, no one greeted me with cold stares.
10:01Instead, the demon queen took my hands in hers.
10:04You poor child.
10:06You've suffered.
10:07Back in the elf kingdom, my parents only called me a powerless disgrace.
10:10They never cared if I went hungry or if someone bullied me.
10:13The demon queen led me to the table.
10:15Sit down and eat something.
10:18You're far too thin.
10:23We're family now.
10:24You don't need to bow to us.
10:26The table was covered with roasted meat, bread, fruit, and steaming stew.
10:30I had never seen so much food.
10:32The demon queen placed a black crystal pendant in my hand.
10:35You may not have magic, but this ward will protect you.
10:39Keep it.
10:39My eyes burned, and tears rolled down my cheeks.
10:42I never thought demons would treat a substitute bride with such kindness.
10:46Under their expectant gazes, I fastened the pendant around my neck.
10:50The crystal warmed against my skin.
10:52For the first time, I felt magic flowing through my body.
10:55The sight of the food brought back my appetite.
10:57I sat down and ate hungrily.
10:59In the elf kingdom, I often went without meals.
11:02No one remembered that I was a princess.
11:03They treated me as lower than a servant.
11:05I always watched Aurelia and my parents eat first.
11:09Only after they finished could I take their leftovers.
11:11I had almost never tasted food like this.
11:14I quickly cleared the plates around me.
11:16Only after putting down my fork did I realize what I had done.
11:19Oh no.
11:20They must think I had no manners.
11:22Would they send me back and ask for Aurelia instead?
11:24I twisted the edge of my dress nervously.
11:27Are you still hungry?
11:28Bring her more food.
11:29She only worried that I had not eaten enough.
11:31I froze and looked up in surprise.
11:33Despite ruling the feared demons,
11:36neither of Lucian's parents looked at me with disgust.
11:38They only looked heartbroken for me.
11:40Lucian moved some food from his plate to mine.
11:43Slow down.
11:44No one's taking it from you.
11:46You can do whatever you like here.
11:47You don't have to be so nervous.
11:49I met Lucian's eyes.
11:51My heart trembled and I nodded softly.
11:53The demon lord and queen smiled at me.
11:55Lucian is right.
11:57This is your home now.
11:59You never need to be nervous at home.
12:00After marrying into the demon royal family,
12:03none of the cruelty I expected ever came.
12:05I stayed beside Lucian every day and watched him slowly recover.
12:09We took walks together and often sat in the castle garden.
12:12One day, Lucian smiled at me and held a pastry to my lips.
12:16Try this.
12:17Do you like it?
12:18I took a bite from his hand and met his smiling eyes.
12:21My cheeks instantly grew warm.
12:23Is it good?
12:25I swallowed the pastry and nodded.
12:26By custom, a bride's family had to visit soon after the wedding.
12:30My parents were coming the next day.
12:31The thought of seeing them made me nervous.
12:33To my surprise, Aurelia came with them.
12:36She was the crown princess and the most gifted elf in our kingdom.
12:40You look well, little sister.
12:43Too bad your good days won't last much longer.
12:46She meant Lucian was dying.
12:47And I was lucky he had survived this long.
12:49Once he died, I would be sacrificed with him.
12:52But they did not know the truth.
12:53Lucian was getting better.
12:54He would not fall and he would not die.
12:57When I did not react, Aurelia grabbed my wrist while no one was watching.
13:01I could not understand why she hated me so much.
13:04Don't think marrying the demon prince puts you above me.
13:07You're still useless.
13:08You'll never be as good as me.
13:10Then she shoved me aside.
13:11I stumbled and watched her join our parents with a smile.
13:15Please, have some more.
13:18Elevin, come sit beside me.
13:20I obeyed and sat beside her.
13:21Lucian sat on my left and placed more food on my plate.
13:24He looked nothing like a man who was about to die.
13:28You raised such a sweet daughter.
13:30You're too kind.
13:32As long as Elevin causes no trouble, I'll be satisfied.
13:37Nonsense.
13:38We're very happy with Elevin.
13:40Just look at her and Lucian.
13:42They already care for each other.
13:44Don't worry.
13:44Lucian will always treat her well.
13:46Aurelia's expression changed instantly.
13:48She stared at Lucian's hand as he placed food on my plate.
13:51Finally, she could not hold back.
13:53Elwin, have you no manners?
13:55How dare you make the crown prince and serve you like a servant?
13:58You're disgracing the elf kingdom!
14:01Aurelia stood before everyone and respectfully curtsied to the demon lord and queen.
14:05She acted as if she had to condemn me for the kingdom's sake.
14:08Elwin has no manners.
14:10As her sister, I should have taught her better.
14:12I apologize for her behavior.
14:17Elwin was spoiled in our kingdom, so she doesn't know how to behave at court.
14:21Please forgive her, your highness.
14:22Every word made her sound like the noble crown princess.
14:25And every word made me sound like a rude, powerless elf.
14:29I lowered my head.
14:30You're wrong.
14:34She is my wife.
14:35No one gets to judge her, especially you.
14:38Aurelia froze and could not answer.
14:40My parents quickly changed the subject.
14:42Your highness, you look much better than before.
14:44That's wonderful news.
14:48Elwin is the reason I've recovered this much.
14:50Aurelia had not expected Lucien to defend me.
14:53She had always stood above everyone and had never suffered any humiliation.
14:58If I remember correctly, the demons originally asked to marry me.
15:02That means I should be the demon prince's wife.
15:05She was right.
15:06The demons had originally named Aurelia in their proposal.
15:37But she had refused, so my parents sent me in her place.
15:39Are you wondering you suddenly want the marriage back?
15:40You don't get to change your mind now.
15:43Or do you think the demons can be pushed around?
15:46Aurelia fell silent and could not answer.
15:53We're truly sorry.
15:54We should leave.
15:55Aurelia had held back her anger for too long.
15:57She's a mute with no magic.
15:59She's useless and inferior to me in every way.
16:01What could any of you possibly see in her?
16:04Enough.
16:05Elevin married Lucien.
16:07That makes her one of us.
16:10Demons protect their own.
16:12Insult her again and you'll answer to me.
16:15If none of you want Elwin, don't bother coming back.
16:18Guards, escort them out.
16:19All my life, the word I heard most was useless.
16:22How could the elf king have such a worthless daughter?
16:25Look at Aurelia.
16:26She's the future queen and her magic is unmatched.
16:29Maybe Elevin isn't their real daughter.
16:30Whenever people called me useless, my parents locked me in the basement so no one would see me.
16:36They were ashamed to let anyone see me.
16:38No one had ever defended me.
16:39I had never known what being protected felt like.
16:42My eyes burned when I saw the pain in the demon queen's eyes.
16:46Don't cry, sweetheart.
16:48This is your home now.
16:50No one will hurt you here.
16:53My mother is right.
16:54This is your home.
16:56Anyone who hurts you makes an enemy of the entire demon kingdom.
16:59I won't spare them.
17:02Lucien placed a small vial in my hand.
17:05This potion was finished yesterday.
17:07It can restore your magic.
17:09Drink it.
17:10It will help you.
17:11I looked down at the milky white potion and froze.
17:14It must have taken a long time to brew.
17:16Unless I was mistaken, it had been made for Lucien.
17:19No.
17:20You should take it.
17:22True speech always came with a price.
17:24I could live as long as any elf, but I would never use normal magic.
17:27Lucien held the potion to my lips and smiled.
17:30The moment you chose to stay, I accepted you as my wife.
17:33I promised to protect you for as long as I live.
17:36Now be good and drink it.
17:37I swallowed the potion and felt a burning warmth gather inside me.
17:42Your Prinus, may I come in for your examination?
17:45Lucien looked annoyed and was about to refuse.
17:48I placed my hand over his.
17:49He turned to me and studied my expression.
17:51You want me to let him in?
17:55Come in.
17:56His face revealed nothing, but I could feel his irritation.
17:59The healer held his breath and examined Lucien carefully.
18:02He seemed terrified of angering the demon prince.
18:05Since our second day together, the terrible pain throughout his body had almost disappeared.
18:09But perhaps his body had simply gone numb to protect itself.
18:12It did not matter.
18:13Since the day he was wounded, Lucien had never expected to survive.
18:17His gaze fell on me, and regret appeared in his eyes.
18:20Before, dying had not mattered to him.
18:23But now he wanted more time to stay beside me.
18:25I noticed him watching me and leaned closer with my head tilted.
18:29What was wrong?
18:33Nothing.
18:35That's enough.
18:36Leave.
18:37He would live for however many days remained.
18:40As long as he could care for me during that time, it would be enough.
18:44Your Highness.
18:46Why are you acting like that?
18:48Leave.
18:49You're ruining my mood.
18:51No.
18:52Your Highness.
18:53Your wounds are completely healed.
18:55Your body healed itself, and all your power has returned.
18:59Even Lucien had not expected that result.
19:01What?
19:03You aren't lying to me, are you?
19:08Tell me the truth.
19:09I can handle it.
19:12I would never lie to you, Your Highness.
19:14Your wounds are truly gone.
19:16If you don't believe me, try using your power.
19:21Lucien instinctively looked at me.
19:22I gave him a small nod.
19:24Still doubtful, he tried to summon his demonic power.
19:26The pain that had followed him for so long was completely gone.
19:30When joy appeared on his face, I smiled too.
19:36Lucien.
19:36I heard you can use your power again.
19:39Is it true?
19:43Yes, Mother.
19:46Thank heavens.
19:47I knew you would survive.
19:49The demon lord could not hide his excitement either.
19:52The three of them gathered around each other.
19:54I smiled with relief as I watched their happy family.
19:57Now that Lucien had recovered, it was time for me to leave.
20:00I turned toward the door, but the demon queen caught my hand.
20:03Child, this is all thanks to you.
20:07Lucien would never have recovered so quickly without you.
20:10He was badly wounded fighting the evil dragons.
20:14And no healer could save him.
20:17I cried every night, wondering why this had happened to my son.
20:21After he was wounded, they searched the realm for someone who could save him.
20:24But every healer failed.
20:26In the end, arranging the marriage was their last hope.
20:29Even if Lucician had died, I would never have let them sacrifice you.
20:33Elevan, you're not a curse.
20:35You're a blessing.
20:39You're a blessing.
20:40You're a blessing to our entire kingdom.
20:42They gave me more love than I had ever known.
20:45They did not despise me for having no magic.
20:47They did not despise me for being mute.
20:49Lucien had recovered, and the demon kingdom would grow strong again.
20:53In my eyes, they deserved it.
20:54A servant rushed into the hall.
20:56The dragon army is preparing to attack!
20:58The demon lord immediately called a war council.
21:00Demon commanders and elf leaders gathered at the castle.
21:03Lucien and I sat together.
21:05My parents sat below us, with Aurelia beside them.
21:07If Prince Lucien cannot fight, who will lead the army?
21:10The room filled with worried voices.
21:12Then Aurelia stood.
21:14My magic is strong enough.
21:15I can lead the elves against the dragons.
21:18Are you truly as powerful as they say?
21:22My magic is no weaker than...
21:24Lucien's was before his injury.
21:28One elf princess has powerful magic.
21:30The other is a mute who has none.
21:33Aurelia would make a much better wife for the demon prince.
21:35Enough!
21:38No one insults my wife in front of me.
21:41She can't even fight!
21:43What use is she?
21:44If she doesn't need to fight, I won't send my wife into danger.
21:47His words humiliated Aurelia.
21:51You're not as strong as you once were.
21:54Save your strength.
21:55Lucien stood.
21:56Dark power burst from his body and shook the entire hall.
21:59How is this possible?
22:00The healer said you were dying.
22:02My wounds are gone.
22:04And Elevan is the reason.
22:06The room erupted in shocked whispers.
22:08Moments ago, they had called me useless.
22:10Now they called me the blessing who had saved the demon prince.
22:13Then every commander turned to Lucien.
22:15Your highness, lead us against the dragons.
22:17I'll go too.
22:18After the council ended, Aurelia dragged me into an empty hallway.
22:22Don't look so pleased.
22:23Lucien only wants you because you're new.
22:25Her fingers tightened around my wrist.
22:27After I help him defeat the dragons, he'll realize he chose the wrong sister.
22:31She released me and walked away.
22:32I shook my head.
22:33He would not abandon me.
22:34When I returned to our chambers, Lucien pulled me into his arms.
22:39Did anyone hurt you?
22:41I shook my head because I did not want him to worry.
22:43But the coming war frightened me.
22:45Lucien saw it on my face.
22:46The dragons are ready for us this time, he said.
22:49But I'll be careful.
22:51If I die out there, take my ring and the gold.
22:54Go wherever you want.
22:55No demon will stop you.
22:57Even before going to war, he was still planning a future for me.
23:00I shook my head again.
23:01I would not leave him.
23:02I had stayed when he was dying.
23:04I would not abandon him now.
23:05Lucien held my hand.
23:08Elowen, listen to me.
23:09I won't let this war destroy you too.
23:11The next morning, I walked with him to the castle gates.
23:14The demon army was ready, and Aurelia waited with the elf soldiers.
23:18She looked down at me as if she had already won.
23:20But I trusted Lucien.
23:21He looked at me as though we might never meet again.
23:24I've arranged everything.
23:26If I don't return, my parents will protect you.
23:28I grabbed his armor and rose onto my toes.
23:31Lucien, you will defeat the dragons.
23:34You will return safely.
23:39Go.
23:40The battle was worse than anyone expected.
23:43Later, I learned the dragons had joined forces with an army of dark beasts.
23:47Inside the command tent, Aurelia moved close to Lucien.
23:50My sister can't fight beside you, she said.
23:52I can.
23:53After we win, we should restore the original marriage agreement.
23:56Lucien did not even look at her.
23:57Elevon is my wife in life and death.
24:00Take your soldiers around the rear.
24:02Follow the route exactly.
24:04Aurelia left the tent humiliated.
24:05She wanted to prove she was the woman Lucien should have chosen.
24:08Instead of following his orders, she led the elves through a narrow canyon.
24:12Her second-in-command tried to stop her.
24:14There may be an ambush.
24:15Prince Lucien ordered us to follow the safer route.
24:18I'm the future elf queen.
24:19Aurelia snapped.
24:20You obey me.
24:21The elf soldiers had no choice but to follow.
24:23As soon as they entered the canyon, dragonfire covered the cliffs.
24:27Dark beasts blocked both exits.
24:29The elf army was trapped.
24:30Soldiers fell as fire and rocks rained down around them.
24:33This is your fault!
24:34You led us into a trap!
24:36Aurelia blamed them for being too weak.
24:38Then a dragon commander raised its weapon over her.
24:41Aurelia closed her eyes.
24:42A violent crash shook the canyon.
24:44When she looked again, Lucien stood before her with his wings spread.
24:47The demon army poured into the canyon behind him.
24:50I knew you came because you cared about me.
24:55I came for the soldiers you nearly killed.
24:58If you weren't the elf there, I wouldn't even look at you.
25:00Then he flew directly into the dragon army.
25:02Lucien fought his way through the dragons while directing his soldiers to open an escape route.
25:07His wounds had healed, but the enemy kept coming.
25:10Blood covered his armor, and new cuts appeared across his body.
25:13Whenever his strength weakened, he remembered my voice.
25:16You will return safely.
25:17Far away in the demon castle, pain suddenly tore through my chest.
25:21I rushed to the window.
25:23Dragonfire had turned the distant sky red.
25:25Somehow I could see Lucien surrounded by enemies.
25:28I could almost hear him calling for me.
25:29The demon queen entered and covered my hands with hers.
25:33Lucien has always survived.
25:36He'll come home.
25:37She was trying to comfort me, but she was terrified too.
25:40The demons had protected me when my own family threw me away.
25:43Lucien had fought for me when no one else would.
25:46Now it was my turn to protect him.
25:47I closed my eyes and used all the strength in my voice.
25:53Lucien will have the power to tear through the dragon army.
25:57He will defeat them and return safely.
25:59My words carried across the realm.
26:01On the battlefield, dark power exploded from Lucien's body.
26:05The war continued for seven days.
26:07At sunset on the seventh day, Lucien drove his blade through the dragon king's heart.
26:12The remaining dragons and beasts fled.
26:16Helloween, I did it.
26:18I'm coming home.
26:20Before he could leave, Aurelia ran toward him.
26:23Aurelia reached Lucien with tears in her eyes.
26:25Thank you for saving me.
26:27I was wrong to refuse the marriage.
26:30When we return, my parents can ask the demons to marry me to you again.
26:35I didn't come to save you.
26:38I came because your selfish choice nearly killed innocent soldiers.
26:42You ignored my orders for your own pride.
26:45Elevin is my only wife.
26:48You will never compare to her.
26:50Aurelia went pale as the soldiers stared at her with disgust.
26:53When the army returned, I waited outside the castle gates.
26:57I knew Lucien had won, but I could not relax until I saw him.
27:00The moment he appeared, tears filled my eyes.
27:03I ran into his arms and held him tightly.
27:06Lucien froze, then wrapped his wings around me.
27:08Don't cry.
27:09I came back.
27:12You can speak, can't you?
27:14Every time I was close to death, I heard your voice.
27:18You were protecting me.
27:20True speech was dangerous.
27:21If the other kingdoms discovered it, they would fight to control me.
27:24I pressed my fingers to Lucien's lips and shook my head.
27:27He understood.
27:29At the victory feast, Lucien suddenly set down his cup.
27:33We won.
27:34But someone nearly destroyed the elf army for her own pride.
27:38The hall fell silent.
27:39Aurelia slowly stood.
27:42Are you talking about me?
27:44You disobeyed orders and led your soldiers into an ambush.
27:47If I hadn't arrived, none of them would have survived.
27:51If I had married you, I would be standing beside you now.
27:54She has no magic and no voice.
27:57Why does she deserve you?
27:59Lucien took my hand and pulled me closer.
28:02She stayed when everyone believed I would die.
28:05You refused me because you thought I had no future.
28:08Now that I've recovered, you want the marriage back.
28:11In my eyes, you will never compare to Elevan.
28:16Aurelia only made one foolish mistake.
28:19Please forgive her for the sake of our kingdoms.
28:23One mistake.
28:24She insulted Elevan again and again.
28:27Then she nearly killed her own soldiers.
28:29Elevan is part of our family.
28:32Anyone who looks down on her insults the entire demon kingdom.
28:35No one dared speak.
28:36I looked at the demon queen holding my hand and my eyes filled with tears.
28:40No one had ever protected me like this.
28:43Why?
28:44Why does everyone choose her?
28:46Why does everyone choose her?
28:48Because she is my wife.
28:49She is the only woman I will ever choose.
28:54I promised to protect you for as long as I lived.
28:58Now I want the whole realm to know that I love you.
29:00For the first time, someone had chosen me without shame.
29:04The demon lord ordered a new wedding.
29:05This time, I was not replacing Aurelia.
29:08I was not being sent to die.
29:09Lucian waited for me before the entire kingdom and held out his hand.
29:13This time, I'm marrying you because I want you.
29:17Lucian.
29:19I do.
