In that case, maybe it’s better to remain as a permanent scar?
‘I don’t mind being cursed for being blinded by love.’
Celestia’s eyes, often praised like black pearls, had long since burned white with love for Blitzen.
But then, a whisper came.
“Why should you die? If anyone should die, it should be that woman.”
Could there really be a god in this world? Perhaps one who pitied Celestia, who was about to lose her love without ever seeing it bloom.
Ah, it must have been God’s revelation.
“Kill the woman.”
The voice echoing in her head was ecstatic and divine, surely not Celestia’s hallucination.
“You, survive.”
“Me, survive?”
“Yes, you must survive. You’re worthy.”
“Worthy…”
“If the Lady of the Cyand House isn’t worthy, then who is?”
The laughing voice was so beautiful it made her shiver. It was a strong male voice, yet to Celestia, it was as glorious as the most splendid soprano.
The voice instructed Celestia on how to survive, from start to finish, with methods so cruel and petty that a well-bred lady like her couldn’t have conceived them on her own. Celestia was assured once again that this was indeed God’s revelation.
Ah, it was a moment so exhilarating that it could have made her faint.
Even priests who had endured long periods of asceticism and penance could not reach it. This is the state of enlightenment that comes with receiving God’s revelation.
‘I heard that even the Pope, who owns the Northern Tower, has never heard the voice of God.’
Such miracles happened to Celestia repeatedly. Even God wanted Celestia to survive and to kill her enemy.
Celestia realized.
‘That’s right. I was special. I truly was a special person.’
Following God’s command, Celestia went straight to Ivonne and poisoned her. The Cyand family was proficient in magical potions, they could produce poisons that wouldn’t be detected in silverware.
In the vicinity of Count Ulfest estate, located in a forest not far from the town center, Celestia attempted to end her own life.
Of course, the substance she took was ingeniously concocted to be indistinguishable from a poison by even the most learned individuals. It was actually a skin nutrient serum.
‘I never thought I could devise such a vile and petty scheme.’
Celestia, who had always prided herself on her forthrightness and had often been outwitted by Ivonne, found herself resorting to methods she had never imagined.
Moreover, God’s voice had even informed Celestia of Blitzen’s preferences. It seemed that the great God knew everything.
“Blitzen loved vulnerability, but not ugliness.”
With a prayer of gratitude, Celestia did not neglect her beauty while pretending to be a frail woman who had attempted suicide. Not long after, as if by God’s revelation, Blitzen began to show interest in her frail and beautiful guise.
— True natural beauty… It never fades, no matter the circumstances. People speak of the liveliness of others, but now, I see what true vitality is.
Comparing her with the downtrodden Ivonne, who had actually ingested poison, Blitzen’s interest didn’t stop there.
— You can’t even lift a spoon; your body has become very frail. Let me help you.
— Just a slight bump and you bruise. How delicate and fragile you are.
— Don’t overexert yourself. You’d find even a simple walk difficult without me, wouldn’t you?
Eventually, Blitzen was exclusively by Celestia’s side, his entire attention and care devoted solely to her. Secretly, Celestia regretted that Ivonne had not died.
‘But looking back, it seems that was also God’s will.’
She had triumphed over Ivonne. She was able to repay the feelings of defeat and deprivation she herself had felt back to Ivonne.
‘Killing her is something I can always do. So, I should keep her alive and ensure she suffers sufficiently.’
Just as Celestia had often felt so miserable she wished for death, she intended to make Ivonne feel that dying would be the best release.
If there was one thing Celestia overlooked, it was that while she succumbed to her own darkness, Ivonne had overcome her abyss.
This was something Celestia could never understand or comprehend.
Whenever Blitzen’s bright blue eyes, that had always been directed at Ivonne, focused solely on Celestia, she felt a happiness so intense it brought tears to her eyes.
— I’m planning to break off my engagement with Ivonne.
Hearing that had thrilled her so much she nearly hyperventilated, and she first kissed Blitzen. It felt like the miracle of ‘my beloved loving me back’ had finally returned to its rightful owner, to the special Celestia.
‘Unlike Ivonne, who passively sat by, I carved out my destiny!’
Although God’s revelations had given her hints, this was undeniably a victory Celestia had forged on her own.
But isn’t it said that the total amount of fortune and misfortune one experiences in life is equal?
— Hello, to meet here like this.
That voice. That insufferable greeting. That contemptuously nonchalant tone!
Ivonne had reappeared, this time wielding an unimaginably special power known as ‘ancient magic’!
And at that moment, where did Blitzen’s gaze turn?
