silent merely nodding slightly aen
snorted coldly still coveting my
sister's Crown you may as well return
and tell him to give up hope for this
lifetime could you tell me the reason
Gian asked locking eyes with a CH why
should I disclose anything to an
outsider Ain stared intently into gian's
eyes I wish to know the true cause of a
lingk death Ain was taken a back what do
you mean the Dragon King said a ling
died during childbirth due to the curse
of the witch tribe but why was there no
curse when linging was born he actually
told you that it was clearly due to his
selfishness aen clenched her Fists her
eyes filled with rage Gian G had hit the
nail on the head the story was
undoubtedly far more complex than it
appeared chapter 78 the truth of the
matter Gian observed a chen slam her
fist on the table rendered speechless
after a moment aqin entered a
contemplative State Frozen in place the
system prompted ain's Affinity is
insufficient to trigger character
storyline would you like to use the
Thousand petal lotus petal noticing that
her efforts in chopping wood and cooking
had not increased A's Affinity Gian
realized she had no other option
gritting her teeth she reluctantly
agreed to use it upon selecting to use
it a thousand petal lotus petal floated
gently into ain's hand aen looked at the
petal and said softly is this a gift for
me thank you I really like it the system
notified ain's Affinity has increased to
70 unlocking task Clues aen took a deep
breath to compose herself before
speaking again because lingin and
shingin are not actually sisters lingine
is the daughter of the former Queen the
queen was she the wife of the dragon
king or the prince I grew up alongside a
ling our parents went missing when I was
born and a ling raised me caring for me
meticulously and protecting me Aken
spoke her voice began to tremble and
sensing her unease about venturing alone
to the Dragon Palace I chose to
accompany her in leaving which island
upon our arrival at the Dragon Palace I
discovered that the man she had
mentioned was merely a prince yet he was
already betrothed Gian G was taken aback
the notion of true love transforming
into a mistress was indeed dramatic he
lost for words she could only emit
occasional exclamations that conveyed
her emotional response Aken continued
explaining that the princess was a
mermaid princess whose marriage had been
arranged by the former Dragon King
himself with the prince marrying her to
solidify his own position giangi gasped
realizing that a ling was destined to
become a concubine Aken chuckled
helplessly asserting that a ling would
never consent to such a Fate The Prince
and the princess had a fierce argument
ultimately resulting in a ling being
designated as a side princess shortly
after giving birth to lingine the
princess fell Gravely ill and passed
away leading the prince to elevate a
ling as the new princess entrusting her
with the care of lingine whom she raised
as her own daughter concealing the truth
from her it wasn't until lingine turned
eight that a ling became pregnant only
for the curse to manifest itself during
the birth of chingin she expended most
of her spiritual energy to protect the
child ultimately succumbing in the
process s aen recounted these events her
emotions intensified and tears streamed
down her cheeks GI on G handed her a
small pack of tissues and gently
inquired then why is it said that it was
due to the Dragon King selfishness Aken
wiped her tears explaining that the
curse was exceedingly powerful Al Ling
and her child could only save one do
however the dragon Clan had a tradition
that if a stillborn was born it would be
deemed an ill Omen jeopardizing the
prince's claim to the throne thus he was
wholly focused on using his spiritual
energy to protect The Unborn chingin
