Hearing the voice in her ear, Lorencia opened her eyes and looked around. She saw an old hut
and the faint smiling figure of the goddess Ella, who resembled her.
[Now, let’s go to where the tree of life water is planted. Lead the way.]Lorencia took a deep breath. How much time had passed? No, it doesn’t matter how much time has passed. From now on, she must buy time.
“Goddess Ella.”
[What is it, Lorencia?]“Do you know what kind of place this is?”
[Of course. Isn’t this where Musila stayed?]“That’s right. It’s the place where mother spent her last happy days.”
Lorencia walked towards the hut with a faint smile.
“The foolish white snake wouldn’t have known. That life water was secretly planted in the place where Ella’s child stayed.”
[The darkest place is always under the candlestick.]Lorencia, who was walking towards the hut, stopped and turned to look at Ella.
“Thanks to the power to see the future, I learned about 10 years later. I watched miserably as Prince Ruans became emperor, unified all the empires in this world, and then married the Great Saint Saraf.”
[Lorencia. Don’t worry. That future will never come.]“Yes. I know that future won’t come to me now.”
Lorencia stretched out her hand and summoned a purple crystal ball.
“That future has now become the future of another Lorencia 10 years later, of course. I wonder if Goddess Ella saw it too? The sight of Teishar and me surviving 10 years in the future, trying to bring down the white snake.”
[Of course.]“The white snake 10 years later was tremendous. I saw its original form too. And that world became the world the white snake wanted.”
[How truly unfortunate.]“Haven’t you seen it yet? Goddess Ella.”
[What do you mean?]“If you had seen it, you would know… The world the white snake wants will never come.”
Lorencia could see Ella’s smiling face gradually hardening.
“Do you remember what I asked earlier? Goddess Ella. The question about whether you knew what kind of place this was.”
[Didn’t I answer?]“Did you forget?”
[What do you mean?]“This place is also where the black snake of the earth lived before mother lived here.”
[It was so long ago, I had forgotten.]“At that time, you lost most of your power while fighting the black snake of the earth.”
“You.”
Ella’s eyes turned cold as she smiled, and at the same time, her round pupils changed to horizontal ovals.
“When did you realize that I wasn’t Ella?”
Lorencia watched as the face that had resembled her slowly transformed into Pelena’s face.
“I thought I had fooled you completely.”
“At first, I was fooled. But you’re so different from Goddess Ella, I couldn’t help but notice.”
Having arrived in front of the hut where Musila had stayed, Lorencia stared at the white snake that had changed from Ella’s appearance to Pelena’s and said,
“If you had been unknowingly infected by my poison, you would have met a painless and very comfortable death… How foolish. Child of Ella.”
“If you thought I would suffer and die from the poison you emit, that would be truly foolish thinking. White snake.”
Only a white snake who has never experienced suffering could say such a thing. It will never know that I have endured all kinds of pain and brushed with death to stand here.
“If you deceived me, then the place where you said the life water is must also be a lie. You’ve done quite a cute thing. So, is this also your struggle to survive?”
Cold sweat ran down Lorencia’s back.
She knows that with her abilities and power to see the future, she can never escape from the white snake. But she also knows that the white snake cannot easily kill her because it has its own purpose.
“Do you know why Musila chose to live alone in a remote place and not create precious beings? Because precious things expose one’s own weaknesses.”
Pelena pointed her finger at Lorencia’s heart and continued speaking.
“I won’t kill you who knows the location of the life water. But remember that I can kill everything you hold dear just by thinking about it.”
“If you take away the people dear to me, you don’t think I’ll just sit still, do you?”
“Of course not. But I am confident I can make you sit still as much as I want.”
At that moment, something flashed through her mind. The image of Musila, who became the mistress of Count Pol Heredian despite having power as Ella’s child, came to mind.
“So you threatened mother like this too. Using father as a hostage to make her stay still.”
The reason she had to endure things too painful to speak of was to protect her loved ones.
“Yes. If I say your father Cain is still alive, wouldn’t you, Lorencia, quietly follow my words?”
Pelena said in a low voice.
“Don’t you want to save your father?”
Lorencia hesitated for a moment. If Cain is alive, of course she wants to save him.
“Child of Ella. If I have that man you love, Teishar, wouldn’t you have no choice but to stay still like Musila?”
Pelena’s words have the power to make people more helpless than brainwashing. It makes them desperately cling and bow their heads.
The answer is set. It’s a terrible answer that she absolutely doesn’t want to utter because she knows the white snake desperately wants it.
‘If you just save my father and Teishar, I’ll do whatever you say.’
Ironically, at times like this, Teishar’s words come to mind.
She and Teishar were prepared to die. They exchanged hearts that were unbearably heavy but without a shred of falsehood.
“If I have the people you love, you absolutely can’t go against me, right?”
Lorencia gently curved her eyes.
“But there’s just one thing I can go against.”
Since you only have one life, once you give up, you can never turn back.
“I don’t think my father is still alive until now. So I’ll answer that I won’t save my father to your question, white snake.”
Even if the white snake’s words are true.
“And if you take away the man I love… I will die without a moment’s hesitation.”
The white snake Pelena said that when you have something you love and cherish, it becomes a weakness. So she refutes.
She intends to show that the person you love never becomes a weakness.
“I’ll die as many times as it takes if it means they can be free with my life.”
As soon as Lorencia finished speaking, Pelena lowered her head, covered her face with both hands, and started laughing loudly. After laughing loudly for a while, Pelena, breathing heavily, slowly raised her head that had been buried in her palms.
“If you don’t intend to guide me to where the life water is, I’ll have no choice but to kill you. Child of Ella.”
Judging by the anger in Pelena’s eyes, it seemed like she might attack her if she made the slightest mistake. But Lorencia acted calmly even after seeing her anger.
“It will take some time, but I’ll have to kill everyone and start over from the beginning.”
“White snake. Even if you start over from the beginning, it will never change.”
“What are you saying, child of Ella?”
“The future you want will not come.”
As the tense atmosphere continued.
[Roa. Can you hear me?]“Yes.”
[I’m glad.]When Lorencia heard Teishar’s voice, she felt relieved. His ear cuff and her earrings are connected by magic. It’s a magic item that allows them to hear each other’s voices and talk even when separated. However, if they’re too far apart, the voices cut off.
The fact that his voice, which had been cut off, and her voice are now connected means that the distance between him and her is getting closer.
[If it’s difficult to answer, you don’t have to. I’ll come quickly, so please wait just a little longer.]Lorencia made plans with Teishar assuming she might be kidnapped.
She was confident that the white snake would definitely ask about the location of the life water, so it was a plan she could make.
Daniel and Ruans, who started the war and became her arms and legs, were exiled or confined.
There was no way a war could happen.
So the white snake was left with only one thing it could do.
That is to kill the life water.
So she expected it to come to find out the location of the life water. That expectation was correct.
The place she brought the white snake to is the place where the black snake of the earth and the white snake fought for the last time in ancient times, and where Musila lived away from people.
She wanted to go far across the sea, but if that happened, the white snake might think it strange or it might be difficult for Teishar to find her, so she planned to lure her to the current location.
‘It went according to plan. But.’
Although it was good that she lured her to the current location, Lorencia couldn’t shake off the feeling of helplessness. After all, the white snake is Goddess Ella’s sister and a god. Is there a way to stop her? Can she be killed?
No, can I survive?
No matter how much she thought about it, it only became more frustrating, but she couldn’t just run away and hide either!
So she must fight. Until the life water fully grows.
“It seems you’ve put your life on the line even now. Child of Ella.”
Pelena smiled ominously, raising the corners of her lips. Her green eyes had already turned red.
[This is the timeline separator]Lorencia’s family was worried about her attending Count Ania’s tea party.
“By now, Lorencia would have attended Count Ania’s tea party.”
“I’ve already received word from Red Moon that she arrived safely. Grandfather.”
“I have a bad feeling about this, but our Lorencia will be alright, won’t she?”
Because they don’t know how Daniel, who has escaped, might attack Lorencia, they are cooperating with the Spencer family to guard her, but they can’t feel at ease.
Above all, Ania is a figure associated with the evil white snake. So they opposed attending the tea party, but Lorencia said she had to attend because it couldn’t be avoided.

“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
