Chapter 205
* * *
Sandra Rolland was seized by tremendous shock.
“Welcome home, Danae. I am your maternal grandfather, Anton Roland.”
“Thank you for welcoming me, Grandfather. May I call you Grandfather?”
“Hahaha! Of course!”
She couldn’t help it.
Danae, whom Lumiere had brought from the Sanctuary, Danae who was known as ‘Sandra Rolland’s daughter.’
‘Why…’
Why did she look exactly like Danae Windsor?
Except for her eye color, from head to toe, she was identical to Danae Windsor!
“Now, this is your mother Sandra. Say hello.”
The moment their eyes met, Sandra felt like she was going to vomit.
“Mother.”
Mother, she said.
“I missed you, Mother.”
The next moment, ‘that thing’ approached and embraced her tightly. Sandra wanted to scream.
‘Father, what is the meaning of this!’
Sandra glared at Anton Roland, her father.
A few months ago, her father had said:
“Sandra, let’s say you have another daughter.”
He told her to create a fake daughter.
“Danae is an artificial human created by the Diana Cult.”
“What? An artificial human?”
“Yes. My elder brother provided his blood while he was alive to create that child.”
An artificial human mixed with Uncle’s blood.
It was utterly grotesque.
She knew that the Diana Cult conducted strange experiments. Alice’s biological father had told her.
And Father treasured Danae’s existence like a treasure.
“Danae is a higher life form, one step above humans. A very great being with purification abilities.”
But since they couldn’t announce it to the world like that, they planned to present her as the Roland Family Daughter.
“Danae can purify the Corrupted Land. A saint will emerge from the Roland Family. A saint who will be remembered in history!”
So she was told to disguise her as Sandra’s daughter.
She had already received all kinds of criticism because of that bastard Lumiere, and now she had to create another bastard?
“Sandra, your reputation has already hit rock bottom. What honor is there left to be ruined?”
In the end, Sandra had no choice but to accept. In exchange, she received a large sum for maintaining her dignity, so it wasn’t a bad deal.
But who would have thought that woman’s face would be identical to the woman she hated most.
‘Danae Windsor…’
Because of her, Sandra’s life was ruined.
Karl, her ex-husband, had been enchanted by her niece and abandoned her, his legitimate wife!
However, Sandra composed herself.
‘That child is not Danae Windsor.’
That nightmarish girl was already dead. She wasn’t the Danae who had stolen Karl away. So it was fine…
“Um, there’s someone who took care of me when I lost my memory. He’s my benefactor.”
“Really? Who is this benefactor?”
Danae smiled shyly.
“It’s Karl Windsor.”
At that moment, cracks appeared on Sandra’s face. Who did she say?
“I heard that Karl is Mother’s ex-husband.”
“…Yes.”
“Um, so this is very uncomfortable for me to say.”
Danae hesitated and spoke carefully.
“I… love him.”
Silence fell instantly.
“I want to marry him.”
At that moment, Sandra heard the thunderous sound of the world collapsing. It was a nightmare repeating itself.
* * *
Miona, an executive of the anti-cult faction.
Not killing her but purifying her was the best choice.
“I don’t know anything. Just kill me instead!”
Of course, there was some resistance at first.
“When the anti-cult faction executives escaped from the Grand Cathedral, they stole something from the Grand Cathedral.”
Using the black core, she repeatedly made the girl’s body rot and then purified it.
After torturing her like that, Miona finally spilled the information.
“An ancient relic- they stole a door that can lead to the Frozen Lake.”
“A door? What is that?”
“It’s a mirror.”
“A mirror? A mirror is a door? Are you joking right now?”
“It’s true! They said that mirror is a door that can lead to the Frozen Lake!”
Miona cried out desperately.
“Usually it’s an ordinary mirror, but when certain conditions are met, the door opens. You know Mirror Lake, right? It works on a similar principle!”
Mirror Lake. How could she not know?
Karl had also dropped her into that lake to go to the Frozen Lake.
‘Yes, Karl tried to kill me then.’
The memory of nearly drowning in Mirror Lake was still vivid. Even Karl’s firm arms that had pulled her out at the last moment, everything.
‘How ridiculous. He should pick one – either kill me or save me.’
Going back and forth like this, his fickleness was truly something else. Dana smiled crookedly.
Like Mirror Lake, to go to the Frozen Lake through that ‘mirror,’ a medium was needed.
Something identical to what was submerged in the Frozen Lake.
‘That would be me.’
And Dana knew how to get her hands on that mirror.
“Mother.”
Sandra Rolland.
She could use this woman.
“May I love him?”
After confirming that Sandra’s facial muscles were twitching, Dana looked at Duke Anton Roland and pleaded.
“I want to marry him.”
Of course, she wasn’t sincere.
Dana’s main purpose was to provoke Sandra.
Enough to make Sandra want to kill ‘Danae Rolland.’
Enough to make her want to borrow the power of that man – one of her lovers, Alice’s biological father.
‘I’ll lure him out and steal the mirror.’
Dana glanced at Lumiere.
Perhaps shocked by her surprising declaration, Lumiere was looking at her with a strange expression.
“Um, is that legally possible in the Empire?”
Then his wife Ingria asked cautiously. Lumiere answered instead.
“Yes. It’s not common, but it is possible.”
“I see.”
“If you have more questions, feel free to ask, Ingria.”
“Yes, thank you, Lumiere.”
How affectionate indeed. Dana barely managed to suppress her lips from twisting sarcastically.
How much silence had passed like that?
“That would be troublesome.”
It was Anton Roland who broke the silence.
“You have marriage talks going on with Duke Viego Windsor, don’t you?”
“The Duke has given his permission.”
Of course, it was a lie. She had never had such a conversation with Viego.
“He said if only Grandfather and Mother would permit it, he would proceed with the marriage to Karl.”
But Dana was confident.
Viego didn’t care. Whether she did or didn’t.
As long as she bore descendants with purification abilities, he wouldn’t care about anything else.
Since Viego only treated her as a purification tool. As long as she performed her function, he wouldn’t interfere with whatever she did.
“So please, permit my marriage to Karl.”
“That won’t do!”
Bang! Sandra slammed her palm on the dining table. She shouted thunderously.
“Absolutely, absolutely not!”
Sandra glared at her with gleaming eyes and spat out the words.
“Listen carefully, Danae. I’m your birth mother, and Karl was my husband!”
“But…”
“Karl and I lived as husband and wife for a long time! How can my daughter say she’ll marry my ex-husband? If you knew shame and morality, you couldn’t say such things!”
Then Duke Roland shook his head with a faint sneer.
“Sandra, you’re hardly in a position to talk about shame and morality.”
“Father!”
“I would be very pleased if a man like Karl became part of my family again. If my granddaughter bears a son who resembles Karl in the future, it would be a great blessing for Roland.”
He seemed to have already finished weighing the matter in his mind.
“Besides, doesn’t Danae also admire Karl?”
“Father, how can you say such things!”
“Alice just sent word that she wants to hold a family gathering. Perfect timing. Let’s make the proposal to Karl then.”
Duke Roland patted Dana’s shoulder and smiled contentedly.
“If Karl agrees, we’ll proceed with the marriage.”
