update icon Updated at 2025/4/9 8:10:12

Iris went to the door of the Scarlet Castle through the necklace and tapped on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Candace opened the door and asked anxiously, "What happened to you, Your Highness? Why are your clothes all stained with blood and tattered?"

"You don't need to care about this. Is Dear Mother here?"

"Your Highness, Her Majesty usually deals with political affairs in the Sleepless Temple and rarely comes back." Candace answered.

"Where is that Temple? Take me there. I have something important to see Dear Mother." Iris acted as if she was in greatly urgency.

Seeing Her Highness's anxious appearance, Candace put down the work in her hands, hugged Iris gently, afraid of hurting her. She then opened her huge blood wings to carry Iris and flew towards the Sleepless Temple.

Iris looked at Candace's blood wings so huge and thought back to the size of her blood wings. No wonder that black-armored woman would say she was disabled.

How can she be a disability due to her smaller blood wings? Besides, Iris is only one year old, so there's still plenty of room for development.

An hour later, Candace brought Iris to the main gate of the Sleepless Temple.

The guards saw Her Majesty dressed in a bloodstained outfit and were a bit puzzled. Besides an hour ago they saw Her Majesty and the Prince go in to deliberate, so how come they suddenly came over again."

"Dear Queen!" Although the guards were confused, they still bowed towards Iris.

"Er ...you have the wrong person."

"Your Highness, if you have an urgent matter, do not need to explain more. Her Majesty is inside." Candace pointed to the inside of the Hall of Sleepless Temple, urging Iris to hurry up and find Her Majesty.

So Iris ran towards the Sleepless Temple. Candace then explained Iris' identity to the two guards.

Iris exhaled and poked her hand into her eyes, tears flowing from her eyes, Iris was determined to take the woman in black armor down.

“...” Iris’s cries rang out in the Sleepless Temple.

When Lilia heard her daughter's cries, she immediately interrupted Liran Day's report on the military situation and came to the front of Iris by spatial magic.

Seeing Iris crying, Lilia asked with concern, "Little Iris, why are you crying like this? What happened? Have humans found your identity?”

Iris shook her head and cried, "I ... was bullied. She beat me so badly. She made countless wounds on me with her lance, and the blood dripping was enough to turn my clothes red." Iris tugged at her school uniform that was covered in blood and rags.

"A human?" Lilia asked as she examined Iris's body.

"No, it's a Blood too." Iris shook her head and sobbed, "She ...not only hurt me, but also slapped me, and insulted me as a disabled person. Besides, she gave me forbidden magic locks."

"The same race?" Lilia sounded surprised, with a look of disbelief. Although the existence of Iris was not announced in the court by Lilia, seeing the appearance of Iris, it should more or less be considered as her daughter. Who has the audacity to dare to bully her daughter?

"Do you remember what the person who injured you looked like?"

Iris nodded her head, indicating that she remembered.

"It was a female, black armor and white clothes. She had long blue and white hair, a clear face, a heroic look, and pale, cold cheeks. I have not seen her face appear happy, angry, or sad emotions. Oh yes, she has wounds left by sharp weapons in her palm."

Lilia already had an answer in her mind, but it always felt impossible that she would hurt her daughter.

"Dear Mother, she is a general. Can you remove her official position and let her be my lady-in-waiting?" Iris behaved so sad, so she thought Dear Mother certainly agreed. When the time comes, Iris must torture that woman to death.

"You can see if she will be willing!" Lilia laughed helplessly.

"Of course willing." A cold and familiar voice came from the Sleepless Temple.

Following the owner of the voice, Iris looked at the black-armored, white-clothed woman with the look of a victor, thinking, "How dare you come here! I MUST torture you."

"Introduce, this is Liran Day Cecilia, my sister. That is, she is your aunt."

"Wait! Is she really my aunt??" The original posture of a victor turned into a look of disbelief.

"How...how can she be my aunt? Doesn't Grandmother have only two children? One is you, and the other is Mavis's father. How could an aunt appear out of nowhere? You must be joking, Dear Mother." Iris sounded a little trembling, obviously afraid of the black-armored, white-clothed woman.

"What's wrong with you? Why have you started sweating inexplicably?" Lilia looked at Iris in confusion. "She was rescued from the cave by my mother, and the specifics should be explained for your aunt. After all, she is the one who experienced it."

Liran Day said with her arms around her chest, "I hid inside the cave to escape from the humans, and the wounds on my hand were caused by humans with silver weapons, causing scars that cannot be removed now. However, the humans did not find my hiding place, and an ice silver wolf found me by following the smell of blood. I stared at it, and the ice silver wolf showed its fangs and lunged at me, while I took up my weapon and fought with it with great effort. Finally I killed the ice silver wolf, and my body was left with countless wounds by the ice silver wolf. I crawled out of the cave with all my strength. I had to get out of here, otherwise the humans would find me sooner or later, but I I overestimated myself and eventually passed out in the snow due to excessive blood loss. Later I was rescued by Her Highness the Empress Dowager. Since I had no father or mother, the Empress Dowager felt me so pity and took me in as her daughter and gave me a name."

"Well ...since it's aunt, forget it. I have to go to class first." Iris saw the situation not right so she was ready to escape, but Liran Day grabbed Iris’s collar.

"What do you mean? Have I ever hurt you? I slapped you because you degraded my mother." Liran Day's tone was cold and her eyes were cold.

When Lilia heard her sister say that Iris had degraded her mother, she said angrily: "Did you curse again? Did you ignore what I said again?"

"Oh no... Misunderstanding. I didn't know she was my aunt, so I accidentally scolded her." Iris stammered.

"I want to hear the truth. I don't want to hear your lies. What happened in the secret realm? You must tell me the truth, otherwise I will come to understand it myself."

Iris sighed, and then told Lilia everything that happened in the secret realm.

Lilia's right hand hit Iris hard on the head.

"Ouch!" Iris shouted in pain.

"This time your punishment is over. Next time if you say something dirty, you will be waiting for the cane."

"Oh!" Iris rubbed her little head.
