This world was filled with contempt and malice toward Ines. A naïve woman trapped in a massive trap, Ines Swalden ruined not only herself but everything around her.
When she reached the place where her husband’s tomb was, a drizzling rain began to fall. Finding a place she had only heard of but never visited was not easy.
After passing about three hills where the tombs were densely lined, and walking along the drainage channel, she finally found her husband’s gravestone. The drizzling rain was now pouring enough to drench her whole body.
Though he was once a loved one, there were no tears at his tomb. She was not in a position to buy even a single flower, so she sacrificed herself before his tomb as if she were a flower.
Joseph Brnoa, 322~349, sleeps here with the resentment in his eyes.
Ines struggled to raise her head to see her husband’s gravestone. The face was too pallid to be that of a cruel murderer, and a wife who had borne several children to a government official.
“Is this resentment toward me, Joseph?”
The name she used to call dozens of times a day ten years ago was tangled in her throat, and the pronunciation was garbled. She brushed the name Joseph Brnoa with her hand.
The wedding ring she had received back from the prison guard spun aimlessly on her finger. When he proposed to her, he was 25, and Ines was 20 years old. The following year they married, and the next year he died.
“Did I really kill you?”

Ines slowly leaned her body against his tombstone. She didn’t expect warmth, but the cold rain on his gravestone was chilling enough to make goosebumps rise.
“Everyone in the world says I killed you. Since everyone says so, I don’t know anymore. I can’t believe in myself anymore, Joseph. Is it a bit warmer where you are?”
Of course, she could not hear an answer, but she found her silent husband cruel. What happened to him that day? Ines never even saw her husband’s corpse.
Before coming here, Ines had gone to Swalden Mansion. The place she lived 10 years ago, where her beloved family happily resided. There, she met the maid Susan and heard unbelievable stories.
Her mother’s death, Landhill’s integration, confiscated estates, and her father’s suicide…
How could the Swalden family’s estate, passed down for over 300 years, go to the commoner Brnoa? Did you really have a twin brother?
In thoughts that could not be organized, Ines threw her head to the sky. If not, she simply could not breathe.
Her body trembled more than it could bear. Staring at a heavily clouded sky without a hint of clearing, she heard hallucinations in her ears.
‘To the beautiful and noble Lady Ines Swalden, I, humble and poor Joseph Brnoa, now… wish to propose.’
In the prison, where she had been bumped around and could not hear well, Joseph’s voice rang in her one good ear. She remembered his neat face, shyly proposing marriage.

But her body, soaked and trembling, did not even allow her to despair or rage.
As the sun began to set, Ines shook off her spot and got up. Then she moved to go to the place where she lived with Joseph. A place with horrible memories, but she had nowhere to lay her body tonight.
After walking a quiet path past the familiar market, the place that had been their home would appear. Of course, there was no guarantee that it hadn’t passed to someone else after 10 years.
The streets had not changed much. The familiar scenery, unaffected by the long passage of time, tormented her more.
As she dragged her injured leg and walked, she began to see the house where she had lived. Though nothing could be assured in the situation, Ines put in all her strength. But then, an unbelievable voice came to her ears.
“Hey, 4568.”
Laughing with a familiar cackle, she thought she was having a terrible dream.
“Really, they said I’d meet you if I came here.”
Jemulen Winningstone, he had obsessively obsessed over Ines for 10 years in prison, in Romfield. He was the jailer. Turning her stiff body with a creaking sound, she saw him standing there with a wicked smile.
Ines was frozen in place, unable to even scream. Reflexively shaking with a learned fear, her shoulder was grabbed by his powerful hand in an instant. He drove Ines back to the door of the house.
“I told you so. You can’t escape from me.”

Ahh, a chill ran through her body with a damp sigh.
“Seeing you without prison clothes, I’m about to lose my mind.”
Jemulen grabbed the door handle to pull Ines into the house. The door opened with a dull sound, and she fell to the floor.
Her left ankle, severed by him four years ago, shot a sharp pain. He laughed like a demon at the sight.
“Aren’t you curious who told me?”
“…….”
“Who else would it be? Your dead husband.”
With those words, Jemulen reached out to Ines again. But she quickly rolled her body and escaped his grasp.
He smirked, but Ines gritted her teeth. This wasn’t Romfield, where it was pointless to run from Jemulen.
Looking around, she saw a crowbar rolling on the floor. Ines grabbed it and swung.

“Ahh!”
