I occasionally glimpsed Princess Miliora and Lord Rond, who seemed quite distant, as I followed the maids.
The most vivid memory of violence lingering in my mind is the stone beating by the son of the village chief in the lower village of Tunbar Mountain.
Since childhood, after becoming a viscountess, I had been beaten several times due to the viscountess, so I didn’t mind the beatings much. But today’s incident would be unforgettable.
When I arrived at the empress’s palace, the empress dowager said nothing. The gaze she cast upon me, full of disgust, was similar to the one she had for Princess Miliora.
‘I won’t be able to get away with it easily this time.’
Mrs. Miriam Horte, a lady-in-waiting to the empress dowager, pointed to the stool in front, saying, “Go up. Lift your skirt.”
‘Damn.’
Silently cursing, I stepped onto it. As soon as I lifted my skirt, she stood by my side with a cane.
I wanted to explain to the empress dowager.
But she was someone who even despised her own biological daughter. There was no way she would listen to the explanation of a maid who violated etiquette.
“Ugh!”
When the first cane flew, I thought my calf might have been split in half.
‘The cane beating of the lady-in-waiting was nothing!’
Although I tried to bear it by thinking that I could endure it, it hurt so much that my teeth clenched.
During the shaky time, two canes broke.
When the lady-in-waiting took out a new cane, I swayed and fell from the stool.
Only then did the empress dowager speak to me.
“Do you know what you did today, Loar?”
If she had asked around the time when the first cane broke, I might have begged her then.
But now, I wondered if there would be any benefit in enduring a little less.
My calf was already a mess. If she had treated me like a human being, I might have spoken before I got to this point.
I raised my head and looked at the empress dowager. I tried to speak, but my jaw was so stiff that I had a hard time opening my mouth.
“I’m sorry, Empress Dowager. I made a wrong judgment, and I made Princess Nymphea give a foolish answer. I deserve to die for that sin.”
But the empress dowager, with an even angrier expression, widened her eyes and scolded me, “You still don’t know your sin!”
Then the lady-in-waiting shouted, “Get up!”
As I tried to get up, staggering, the maids rushed over and supported me, placing me back on the stool.
And then another cane flew.
“Kkeuk!”
Even though it hit me, the empress dowager, still filled with anger, said, “Today’s victory should have been Aurel’s. He should have taken all the glory of victory!”
When the empress dowager spoke of the ‘glory of victory,’ I felt strange even amidst all this. Her emotions felt like a profound sense of inferiority.
She seemed angry about everything that Aurel hadn’t achieved. A healthy body, the title of a war hero, and such things.
For Aurel, who would never have those things in his lifetime, the victory in this competition was bitterly important.
But the more I thought about it, the more I found the sense of inferiority embedded in the empress dowager’s anger peculiar.
Even Crown Prince Grayian, her son, why does it seem like Empress Dowager feels the emotions that Crown Prince Aurel should feel towards his younger brother…
Whether she got angrier because it seemed like I was lost in my own thoughts, Empress Dowager exhaled a harsh breath.
“The lowly one realizes it slowly.”
Then, the lady-in-waiting’s cane was raised higher.
I closed my eyes tightly, shivering at the sweat droplets on her forehead. I no longer had the strength to endure.
“Damn it.”
“Empress Dowager!”
At that moment, Crown Princess Miliora rushed in, half-running, and prostrated herself in front of Empress Dowager.
“I was wrong! Please forgive me.”
Empress Dowager spoke as if waiting for this.
“Yes, it’s always your fault. Who here wouldn’t know that? You were born wrong. Why do I have to endure this?”
At that moment, I had to witness the vitality shattering from Crown Princess Miliora’s eyes. I clenched my teeth once again.
Nevertheless, Crown Princess Miliora tried to stand her ground in front of Empress Dowager. She placed both hands on the floor and shouted.

“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
