Chapter 181
Dana couldn’t say anything.
For some reason, that was the most shocking part.
More than all the talk about Yeon Dana being the ‘original body’ or experiments or holy water ingredients.
‘But Karl has the sacred relic.’
Come to think of it, why doesn’t he use the sacred relic? If he used it, everything would be so much easier.
Does Karl not use the sacred relic, or can he not use it?
“It was almost complete…”
Just then, the Priest sobbed bitterly.
“The door to the frozen lake was about to open. But that bastard Karl betrayed us at the last moment…”
That word snapped her back to attention.
Betrayal.
Yes, that’s what Karl is. A traitor, liar, fraud, actor.
“It’s because of Lumiere, that bastard. He must have noticed in advance that he was leading the Holy Knights here… and betrayed us…”
Dana completely agreed with those words.
There’s no way Karl wouldn’t have noticed Lumiere and the Holy Knights barging in.
So he must have changed his mind and saved her.
‘Right. That’s the kind of person Karl Windsor is.’
Whether Karl’s lifespan is long or short, what does it matter? She couldn’t care less what happens to such a person.
“Hey. I have more questions to ask…”
Dana’s words trailed off. The Priest’s head dropped with a snap, and he no longer moved.
‘He’s dead.’
Well, he had been bleeding heavily.
Without a trace of sympathy, Dana stood up. And calmly made her plans.
‘I’ll steal the sacred relic from Karl, reclaim Yeon Dana’s body, and return to my world.’
And this time, I’ll pray more specifically.
When I opened the Dimensional Gate last time, I only prayed ‘please let me return to Yeon Dana’s body.’
That was a huge mistake.
‘It’s because of Lyos. I should have concentrated more and prayed more specifically.’
That bastard was so horrible that my concentration was scattered.
So this time, I’ll specify it more properly and specifically.
To before falling from the rooftop. To before going to that construction site, back to Yeon Dana at that time.
‘It’s okay. I can do it.’
Even though her goal had become clear, she didn’t feel better. Rather, she felt extremely upset.
‘Lord Ignis.’
Because of Ignis.
He didn’t even leave a corpse behind. Because Lyos corrupted him and crushed him to dust.
‘Lyos, that bastard.’
Thinking of him sent chills through her.
Does he know that she has awakened?
She hoped he didn’t know. If he knew, he would probably chase after her. Persistently like a shadow, to the ends of the earth.
Even if that place were hell…
* * *
Inside the carriage heading to the Grand Cathedral. Dana was with Lumiere.
Karl, who had been marked as a subversive element by the Grand Cathedral, was being escorted by the Holy Knights.
“Dana, are you okay?”
Across from her, Lumiere was looking at her with concern.
“You’re breaking out in cold sweat.”
“I’m fine. Thank you for worrying about me.”
Actually, she wasn’t fine.
No, she felt like she was going crazy.
The flood of memories she had been desperately holding back during the interrogation was pouring out.
Dana couldn’t endure it and finally closed her eyes. She squeezed them shut, but.
However, another eye was opening.
‘This, this eye is…’
The Third Eye engraved on her soul.
An eye as massive as the Giant’s was opening. Like a flower slowly unfolding its petals, very slowly…
Dana knew what it was.
An eye that defies time. An eye that reads the past.
‘Divine Sight.’
It was lifting its eyelids once again. As her memories returned, her forgotten abilities were also reviving.
And that made her even more confused.
Because even memories unrelated to Karl were gradually surfacing.
‘Before possessing this body, I was Danae Windsor.’
Until 10 months ago, she had been possessing the body of ‘Danae Windsor.’
Danae Windsor, who was betrayed by everyone.
‘To return to Yeon Dana, I had to break off my engagement with Lyos and obtain the sacred relic.’
So that’s what she did.
She broke off her engagement with Lyos and cut off Karl Windsor’s finger to steal the sacred relic.
And.
‘I opened the Dimensional Gate and returned to Yeon Dana’s body.’
And.
‘I fell from the rooftop.’
“Farewell, Yeon Dana.”
Pushed by her relative’s hand, she plummeted to the ground.
Down, down, down.
And then?
What happened then?
‘Did I crash into the ground?’
She didn’t know.
Only the sensation of falling seemed eternal.
The scenes after that weren’t visible. No matter how deep she dug, nothing came out.
She just opened her eyes to find herself possessing the body of ‘Danaina Rolland.’ Lying on the beach. Having forgotten all her memories.
That’s when a passerby approached and asked if she was alright.
“Oh my. That’s amnesia.”
That passerby was Karl.
Yes, that’s exactly this current life.
10 months ago she was Danae Windsor, finished her possession and returned to Yeon Dana’s world, but.
Was dragged back here again and possessed ‘Danaina Rolland’s’ body once more.
This current moment of life.
Dana barely managed to tie this life together into one bundle.
Though it was incomprehensible, Dana’s life wasn’t just this one time.
‘This life isn’t the first.’
There was a previous life that had been rewound like clockwork.
Another life right before the current one.
Even then, she had lived a life remarkably similar to now.
‘Yes, it was almost identical to now.’
A life possessed as Danae Windsor.
A life where she was betrayed by Lyos and decided to return to ‘Yeon Dana’s’ body.
But there were definitely differences too.
For instance—the broken engagement with Lyos.
In the previous life, no Divine Trial was held.
Former Emperor Wilhelm had revealed that they were siblings.
“Danae Windsor and Lyos Grants are half-siblings. They cannot marry.”
Thus, their engagement was naturally broken.
Incestuous marriage within the second degree was legally prohibited.
So she broke off her engagement with Lyos and succeeded in becoming the deputy head of the Windsor Family, but—
Even then, Karl didn’t give her the ring.
“Sorry, Dana. I can’t give you this ring.”
‘Yes, that’s exactly the same as this life.’
However, back then, she failed to steal the ring.
Because.
‘Karl caught me…’
In the previous life, Karl caught her.
That she was after his ring and trying to return as ‘Yeon Dana.’
“Seeing how desperately you want this ring, now I know for certain.”
He spoke with such a terrifying, unsmiling face.
“It was to return as Yeon Dana, wasn’t it?”
After that, Karl was wary of her. He never let his guard down. His finger was never cut off.
‘Yes, in the previous life, I couldn’t obtain the Sacred Relic.’
She failed to obtain the Sacred Relic.
Therefore, she couldn’t open the Dimensional Gate.
So what happened then?
She didn’t know. Not all the memories had surfaced yet. They were jumbled, with holes scattered throughout.
That wasn’t all.
‘There’s more…’
Before the previous life, even before that.
There was yet another life.
‘Yes, that’s not the end.’
Just how many lives have I lived repeatedly?
Dana groaned as she dug through her memories. It wasn’t easy to find her way through the chaotic flood of memories pouring out.
And that other different life…
Was different from both the current life and the previous one.
Really very different.
‘Back then, I didn’t even try to open the Dimensional Gate.’
Because the Lyos of that time didn’t betray her.
“I love you, Dana.”
“I love you too.”
Back then, Lyos didn’t cheat.
He loved only her, looked only at her.
So the ‘Danae Windsor’ of that time didn’t try to leave This World.
But the peace didn’t last long.
One day before her marriage to Lyos, Former Emperor Wilhelm came to visit.
“Danae Windsor. Please break off this engagement.”
“Why?”
Even then, Former Emperor Wilhelm told them about their relationship.
So she broke off her engagement with Lyos.
“How can you abandon me?”
Back then, Lyos was furious.
“You said you loved me, Dana.”
As if he couldn’t understand her change of heart.
“How can you choose separation so easily?”
He resented her, spewing out intense feelings of betrayal.
“It’s not like you gave birth to me.”
