“Lady Musilla. When would be a good time to hold the wedding?”
“What? Marriage is not it. Sir Cain. I am a child of Goddess Ella. I am much older than you.”
An immortal being.
“Have you forgotten your oath to Goddess Ella last night to take responsibility?”
“Ah… oath?”
Musilla was taken aback by his words. Reading the confusion on her face, Cain approached Musilla with a sunny smile, pulled her into his arms, and smiled happily.
“I swore to make Lady Musilla the happiest woman in the world until the day I return to Goddess Ella’s arms.”
Cain recalled when he first met Musilla 10 years ago. Musilla, the sixth child of Goddess Ella.
11-year-old Cain at the time watched as Musilla held the navy crystal beads and calmed the approaching storm. Her red hair fluttered in the wind and he fell in love with her beautiful appearance at first sight. However, people feared Musilla. Cain hated that.
With the thought of gaining strength to protect Musilla from people’s gazes, he diligently learned swordsmanship.
If he could be with Musilla, if they could love each other, it would be such a happy thing, but as he got older, he began to think of himself dying of old age before Musilla.
It would be nice if he could leave her with memories of him, who might live forever, but it felt too cruel.
As he aged one year, two years, and his swordsmanship improved, he pondered whether he should really be by Musilla’s side.
Reality was too cruel for greed. Thinking of her being left alone made his heart ache.
Even so, he couldn’t give up his feelings. Cain tried to let go of his feelings, but in contrast, he wanted to close the distance with Musilla.
And last night.
It wasn’t intentional. He took refuge outside to avoid the approaching women and secretly climbed up to the terrace.
Musilla entered the terrace. He was happy to see her face up close. However, Musilla tried to avoid him. His heart shattered like broken glass.
Unable to even confess to the person he loved, and thinking it was an impossible love, he no longer wanted to stay in the Poloid Empire.
Then.
As soon as he saw Musilla holding onto him with a face that looked like she was about to cry at any moment, the string of reason snapped. He couldn’t think of anything else.
Cain took Musilla from the imperial palace to the room he was using.
As soon as they entered the room, Musilla hugged him from behind, causing his body to tremble. His heart began to race like climbing up and down high stairs quickly.
He thought it would be rude not to give in when Musilla, whom he had a crush on, told him not to leave.
Cain pressed his lips against Musilla’s. Musilla didn’t push him away or reject him.
Their gazes met, their hearts connected, and the night they confessed with each other’s lips was very beautiful, but when the morning came with sparrows chirping, Musilla tried to ignore the first night. However, he was not a foolish man to miss this opportunity.
Compared to her who lives forever, he has a short life. If he lives for 100 years from now, he plans to love her with all his might for those 100 years, live happily, and when he returns to Goddess Ella’s arms first, he will pray and pray again to Goddess Ella to let him meet her again.
It was a cruel choice, but he could no longer deceive his heart.
“So when shall we hold the wedding? Lady Musilla.”
Musilla evaded the question, saying they would talk about it later, and fled from Cain’s room.
She returned to Musilla’s house. As soon as she returned to her room to restore her shattered mental strength, she lay down on the bed. She really didn’t want to think about anything. However, the misdeeds she committed last night kept coming to mind, tormenting her.
“I can’t drink alcohol anymore.”
[You’re not going to drink alcohol, your only joy?] [Musilla. Don’t lie.]Small lights flickering like fireflies began to gather around Musilla. They were fairies. And their noisy chatter began.
“Please don’t talk to me. My head hurts.”
[There are rumors all over that you were with a man yesterday.] [I heard you even received a marriage proposal.] [Musilla. Are you getting married?]There are two stories that fairies love the most. They love love stories and extremely dramatic stories.
[That’s right. Yesterday, the snake of the Spencer family kept looking for Musilla.]“Magus looking for me is not new. I need to rest, so please be quiet for a bit.”
[You overdid it last night.] [Haha.]Musilla didn’t want to attend the imperial palace banquet. However, upon hearing that alcohol made from transparent whale whiskers would be served, Musilla, a liquor enthusiast, absolutely had to attend.
Living alone for a long time, there were many times when she was in pain. At those times, the only thing that comforted her was alcohol.
The tingling feeling that alcohol gave made her smile even in loneliness.
Of course, those she didn’t want to meet would come, but in order to drink the hard-to-obtain and hard-to-drink alcohol, Musilla could even exchange awkward greetings with people she disliked. And as expected, as soon as they saw her at the banquet, they began to point fingers at her, calling her a witch.
They were none other than the priests and priestesses of the Temple of Goddess Ella. And as they always did, they demanded the Queen of the Poloid Empire. The fairies heard their demands and relayed them all to Musilla.
Musilla had to constantly hear them denying her existence at the temple that served Goddess Ella.
It didn’t matter. They couldn’t force her to do anything anyway. They would just whine to the queen and leave. It was ridiculous.
The queen did not comply with the demands of the Temple of Goddess Ella. It was natural. The queen needed the power to purify contaminated evil spirits, not religion.
If contaminated fairies were left alone, they would turn into evil spirits and attack people. To prevent that, she had been consistently performing purification rituals to prevent fairies from turning into evil spirits.
Musilla had previously shown the purification ritual, the Pillar of Light, to the priests of the Temple of Goddess Ella, but they didn’t believe her, calling it the sorcery of a dirty witch.
Incited by the priests of the Temple of Goddess Ella, the number of people pointing fingers at her gradually increased.
She fulfilled her duties and did her part, but she grew tired of being pointed at. It upset her that people feared her. Honestly, she was planning to hole up in the Fairy Forest for about 50 years after this banquet.
But.
Swept up in the moment with Cain, whom she liked, she had committed a fiery mistake.
“I’ll have to appease Sir Cain well and pretend it never happened.”
[Will it be like it never happened? Musilla.] [If you did something you have to take responsibility for, you should get married.] [It’s bad if you don’t take responsibility!]“Please be quiet for a bit!”
For several days, Musilla avoided Cain, who came looking for her, but in order to make the first night with Cain as if it never happened before going into seclusion for about 50 years, she finally decided to meet him and talk.
“Sir Cain. That night…”
“Lady Musilla. Please let me take responsibility for that night.”
Something surged up in Musilla. She had nothing to say to Cain about seducing him that night, even if she had ten mouths, but she still had to say what she had to say.
“I can’t take responsibility. Sir Cain. You know well what kind of being I am. People fear me.”
Cain’s words about taking responsibility sounded infinitely light. She couldn’t be responsible for anyone.
“I don’t age. The length and weight of time are different for Sir Cain and me.”
“I love you with all my heart.”
At his confession, Musilla’s mouth slowly closed.
“Compared to Lady Musilla, I may live a short life and grow old and ugly… but I still don’t want to give up.”
Cain’s eyes grew darker and darker.
“I know it’s my greed, but I want to dedicate my short life entirely to Lady Musilla. I want to make the time you spend with me the happiest time of your long life.”
“It’s burdensome. Sir Cain. Please don’t stake your life on me.”
“When I return to Goddess Ella’s arms, I will pray to the goddess. To let me be with Lady Musilla.”
Musilla rejected Cain as he approached. Even though she refused like that, Cain left roses in front of her house every day.
[This is the timeline separator]Magus’s bitter red eyes turned to Lorencia.
“Sir Cain truly loved Lady Musilla. He sincerely showed his heart. In the end, Sir Cain’s heartfelt love moved Lady Musilla’s heart as well.”
“Then I was indeed born out of my parents’ love.”
Lorencia spoke in a tearful voice.
“Of course. Young Lady Lorencia, you were a precious being that the two wanted so much.”
“I’m a precious being?”
“Precious is an understatement. To Lady Musilla, who lives forever, Sir Cain said to have many children.”
“Young Lady Lorencia, you are the first child of the two.”
Magus vividly recalled what happened then. The beautifully blooming Musilla’s tree. The white flowers of the stink bug tree that bloomed fully at Cain’s confession scattered in the wind, filling the room with pure white.
But unfortunately, happiness and misfortune always came together.
