Chapter 116 TL: Zimming

Editor: bodyinthefreezer

Laontel was her friend.

Laontel was the first human who knew of Ser’s name.

Ser got to know Laontel and Phillip and they grew up together like a family.

Phillip said he loved Ser, but his eyes were always on Laontel.

Still, Ser loved Phillip.

Phillip’s father was the Emperor of the Zelcan Empire.

But soon after Phillip was born, the Emperor abandoned his son and his wife.

Phillip was deeply hurt by the incident.

Ser wanted to heal his wounds.

In fact, she knew that he always hid his wounds so she felt sorry for him.

Laontel loved Rakshul. Ser prayed desperately for the two to get together.

If Laontel got married, Phillip would give up on her. When Laontel and Rakshul got together, Phillip proposed to Ser.

“Ser, I want you to become a real human being. Can you do that for me?”

“Of course!”

Ser smiled brightly.

However, Phillip’s expression was grim as he proposed to Ser.

“What’s wrong Phillip?”

“I’m anxious.”

“Anxious?”

“I am pathetic and don't have anything. I was abandoned by my father. Serphania, you won’t leave me, would you?”

“I won’t leave you! Of course I won’t leave you!”

Ser shook her head.

But Phillip’s expression didn’t change.

“Even if we get married, you might go back to being a goddess.”

“No, I won’t. I’ll be with you forever!”

“Then can you completely become human?”

“Completely?”

“Yes. Completely.”

This meant that Phillips was asking her to let go of her powers forever and become human.

“…Yes, I will.”

Ser nodded.

She instinctively noticed what Phillip wanted.

So she gave him what he wanted.

“I’ll give up all of my powers and give it to you.”

“Thank you Serphania.”

Phillip looked at Ser with an affectionate gaze.

He looked at her with the same gaze that he always had when looking at Laontel.

Ser was pleased by it.

‘If I become a human being like Laontel, Phillip will love me.”

Perhaps Phillips proposed to her to take away her powers.

Ser had thought about that once.

She tried to cover up her anxiety.

He was a human, so it was natural that he wanted strong powers.

But that couldn’t be the only reason why he’d proposed.

‘If it was, he wouldn’t look at me with that kind of gaze.’

Ser comforted herself.

Ser was in the midst of marrying Phillip when Phillip suddenly shouted.

“What did you say to Laontel?”

“Huh?”

“If you didn’t want to be a human then don’t! You should’ve told me, not Laontel! How can you let her misunderstand!?”

“No, I’ve never said that.”

Ser shook her head but Phillip stared at her coldly.

“I trusted you. I’m so disappointed, Serphania.”

“No! I really didn’t say anything.”

“So you’re saying Laontel lied?”

Laontel lied?

No, Laontel wouldn’t lie.

“She wouldn’t lie, but there must’ve been a misunderstanding.”

“So you’re saying you lied?”

“Do you believe in her more than me?”

“No, I don’t. Then, was it Laontel who lied?”

“Uh…”

Laontel nodded under Phillip’s pressure.

“Why would Laontel do such a thing? She wouldn’t lie.”

Right, Laontel wouldn’t. Phillip knew about it. Ser was about to nod again, but Phillip continued.

“Is she trying to break us apart?”

“What?”

Laontel?

“That’s right. That’s it. Otherwise she wouldn’t make that story up. She told me that you didn’t want to marry me because you didn’t want to give me your powers.”

Laontel tried to break us apart?

Ser knew Laontel. Laontel only had Rakshul in her heart. She had really never considered anyone else.

Besides, Laontel considered Phillip as her family, so she didn’t notice his feelings at all.

She had never even realized that Phillip treated her differently.

But was it not like that? Did she already notice Phillip’s feelings?

She knew it, but she pretended she didn’t know and deceived me?

Ser said to Phillip that she was extremely disappointed by Laontel’s betrayal.

“That’s right. It’s all lies. Laontel made all that up because she was jealous of us!”

“But Serphania, did you really not say anything?”

“No.”

“You must’ve said something because Laontel wouldn’t act like that for no reason.”

After he left, Ser was filled with rage as she made her way to Laontel.

“Why did you say that to Phillip!?”

“It was what I wanted! I chose to do it because I wanted to give Phillip my strength!”

“Laontel, we’re no longer friends.”

Ser vented her anger at Laontel, and then she went to Phillip and apologized.

She was afraid that Phillip would leave her.

Ser loved Phillip.

It was the first time she felt that way towards somebody.

She could give him anything he asked for.

“Phillip, I’ll give you all of my strength, so please don’t abandon me.”

Ser begged him again and again.

“This is the last time. If you betray me one more time, I won’t forgive you”

“Okay, I won’t do it again.”

She had never betrayed Phillip, but she nodded at his words.

Moreover, listening to him made her feel like she really had betrayed him.

“Serphania, let’s leave. Let’s go to a place where it’s just two of us. We’ll live together peacefully. I can’t trust anyone anymore. Not even Laontel.”

“Yes, I will. I will do as you say.”

Ser answered with a bright smile.

If they left the city, Phillip would forget about Laontel and only look at her.

They immediately headed for the valley in the west.

They had their own wedding there.

That night, Ser gave him all of her strength.

She lost the power of the goddess and became completely human.

But it wasn’t too bad. She felt happy.

Now, she was really Phillip’s wife.

Ser taught Phillip how to use her powers.

Phillip was very nice to her and cherished her well.

Then one day, Phillip asked.

“Ser, is there any way to distort the light?”

“Huh?”

“Can’t we distort the light and use it for things other than treating people and growing crops?”

“…why?”

“I sensed a lot of evil powers in here. Ser, you’re a human now. I need to do this to protect you.”

Phillip stared at Laontel.

The power itself had a mission to heal and protect people that came with it.

That’s why it’s offensive ability was lower than other powers.

“I’ll only use it when I’m with you. I need to protect you…”

“But that sort of thing…”

It was actually possible to distort mana. But using the power incorrectly would lead them to greater tragedy.

Ser hesitated as Phillip’s expression grew impatient.

“Ser, don’t you believe me?”

“Of course I do!”

“Are you disregarding me now? Do you regret following me?”

“No, it’s not like that! I’ll let you know. I’ll tell you everything!”

Ser taught him how to distort the power.

On the day Ser taught him that, Phillip suddenly left.

The valley of chaos was always full of powers.

Although Phillip put a protective spell there before he left, the demons continued to swarm around the shabby cabin.

Ser wasn’t afraid of them. She was just terribly lonely.

She missed Laontel.

Ser gave Laontel a necklace as a symbol of their friendship.

She cast a spell on it so that Laontel could call for her anytime, and they could visit each other.

Ser had given all her strength to Phillip, but the powers on the necklace still remained the same.

Yet, Laontel never visited her.

‘She said she’s my friend, but she doesn’t want to see me? Did she forget about me too? Did she really drive me and Phillip apart?’

As Ser’s resentment and loneliness slowly built up, black spots suddenly appeared on her body.

Since the power of light was distorted, she had to pay the price, and the disease began to consume her body.

“What happened?”

The power of light was originally Ser’s. But if anyone misused her powers, the responsibility would still fall on Ser.

Ser had also given Laontel her powers, but Laontel wouldn’t abuse them.

“Ser, is there any way to distort the light?”

Suddenly, she remembered Phillip’s voice.

It was Phillip.

Phillip had learned how to distort the power and now he was doing something with it.

Ser ran out of the small cabin that she had built with him.

At that moment, she heard Laontel’s voice.

“Ser, there’s a mysterious disease spreading in the Imperial Palace.”

“Ser, where are you? Please help me. Rakshul…Rakshul…”

“Rakshul is gone. He’s gone….”
