I Will Live for Your Death (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 25
Sleepless nights never grew easier, no matter how much time passed.
Ilyd tossed and turned in bed again and again. Truth be told, staying awake felt more comfortable—closing her eyes always brought nightmares waiting for her.
Those nightmares always brought the members of House Melphiram: her older brother met in the prison tower, her parents and servants all marching toward the execution grounds.
Whenever sleep eluded her, Ilyd deliberately pictured those she sought revenge upon.
Claudius—and the noble factions shielding him.
Ilyd’s eyes snapped shut once, then opened again. Tonight, sleep felt especially unreachable.
Though insomnia always had many causes, tonight’s reason was clear: at dawn, Claudius would depart for the battlefield. Another war, inevitably waged only to satisfy his greed, would soon begin.
Each time he left for war, Ilyd knelt on her bed and prayed—prayed desperately for his defeat, prayed that this war might become a permanent stain upon the Empire.
Yet contrary to her prayers, Claudius always returned triumphantly, entering the Imperial Palace with grand fanfare.
Why did the lives of those she wished dead seem so unyieldingly long? Ilyd glared up at the sky, now filled with celebratory floral decorations and paper firecrackers marking his latest victory, and asked aloud.
‘Does this mean I must kill him with my own hands?’
The sky offered no answer. Cold and beautiful in its indifference, refusing to affirm or deny, it appeared unusually blue that day.
The sword hilt and trigger were already in her hands. How could she not fire? For a while, she repeatedly imagined aiming blade and gun straight at Claudius’s heart—but even in her fantasies, she never quite managed to end him.
Lowering her weapon, Ilyd glared at the phantom of Claudius and muttered,
‘I’ll take every bit of Imperial power you once loved so dearly—and strip it all away, dragging you down in utter ruin.’

Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
