Chapter 1263 - 1263: Their tale of love
“The judges are finally here!” Blessed beings were regarded as higher than the rest of the mortals.
“They look the same as they did all those years ago… she, on the other hand, seems like a completely different person.”
They were special.
“She became a mother. Change is bound to happen.”
She was uniquely special.
“And since she is going to become a mother again, she should change further as well.”
But being unique, special, different, or better than the others wasn’t always a good thing— not in the eyes of the society made up of common individuals, at least.
“Right… that f*cking lucky bastard.”
They hate those who have what they could not.
“Being ugly enough that he has to hide behind a mask certainly scored him a nice pair of cheeks.”
They make up things about those they know nothing about.
“Hey. Quite.”
And at the end, the same common majority that fills the world hold the power to destroy even the greatest of the geniuses.

The moment when one falls in love is considered magical, and this magical movement is always followed by a magical encounter.
Individuals meet, they look into one another’s eyes- into one another’s souls- and then the next thing they know, they aren’t individuals anymore.
“Are you alright?”
“Yes… this much is nothing.”
Love.
It mixes two separate elements and creates a compound that’s more philosophical than it is realistic or logical.
It changes people just as much as the loss of their beloved children changes them.
“How much true do you think this story is?”
“Everyone is talking about it. Some were even saying they spotted her crying on the way here.”
“Is that right?”
The world is filled with uncertainty, especially when one is talking about the market and economy— one of the most important factors on par with humans and politics, maintaining the stability of any nation in this world.
And as someone that contributed immensely to this economy, she was the master of a kind of power already unmatched to many others in this world.
“She still hasn’t learned her lesson.” Good is always an object of envy to the common And evil.
“Tsk. Today she will.”
She didn’t discriminate against anyone, be it about race, background, or any factor that did not matter for the work they were doing.
She was treated equally as her brother by her parents and, even after being from an important family, she was not restricted from doing anything she desired.
{ “The hearing will commence in three minutes. Everyone, please take your position.” }
She was born into a good family with good condition, and that was her gift. Something not just anyone in this world was fortunate to be born with.
She was born with natural talent as well, however, instead of wanting to succeed her hereditary noble status, or walking the honourable path of a mage with her blessed talents, she chose a path that she liked more and while walking this path, she became one of the most successful merchants on this continent— a Lady merchant, on top of that.
But… she didn’t walk a path filled with flowers to obtain that position.
“Spending all those years in the outskirts must have taught her nothing. That shameless bitch!”
“She has become prettier though. If she leaves her stubbornness and begs to some duke’s son or something, they might just take her in.”
“Right? Then she wouldn’t have to suffer such humiliation.”
Nolen Heliox Von Ethan Griffin. The only daughter of the Protectors of the northern border of the Blessed Empire of Roxana.
Beloved child of one of the few (Knight Kings) of this world, the lord of Warhammers, the Tsunami, the great force of the sea— Lord Zahavi.
She who raised the Hiraani— one of the greatest auction houses of this world, one of the Six grand structures of the imperial capital, the blessed city of Gwyneth.
She was the Master of one of the top merchant alliances in this world until a few years ago as well, however, that position was taken from her by the jealous bastards… who were the reason she had to stay away from her family for all these years.
{ “We will now begin.” }
“The judges have spoken.”
“It’s starting now.”
“Let’s see her get humiliated once again~.”
She was a normal person once, a young lady that just wanted to live her life doing small things that she enjoyed, play around and find something she would actually want to do.
But then she found her passion, a mentor, a friend that taught her everything they knew, and when she was ready, she started her own career.
From a small shop to a castle like no other in this world, she built what could not be imagined even by the nobles and royals of various nations.
She created a legacy for her children, for the children she wanted with the only love of her miserable life— an orphan that had already lost most of his self when she met him for the first time.
She never expected she was capable of it, but… she fell in love.
She met him in a back alley of this very city, a magical encounter neither of them were going to forget about.
{ “Plaintiffs.” }
They walked around, she showed him around the city since he was new here, they met again for a date, went around the city a few times after recovering an unfortunate incident, and by the time He realised they weren’t just some platonic friends… it was already too late.
{ “You can now present your case.” }
He confessed first, but she had been waiting for it long before he did so.
Thus, she kissed him first… marking the true start of a journey where the name (Red eyed hunter) became something more than an object of fear, a journey where the name (Golden demoness) was born and raised to a position where almost all those related to economics knew it, and a journey that gave birth to a hero maker And The protector.
“Yes… your honor.”
She was a merchant, she was going to be a mother, and she had an amazing husband.
However, she would have been a normal person that lived a normal life in this wretched world if it wasn’t for that certain magical encounter.
[{ *One of the reasons she always talks about it still, is perhaps that very encounter the two had.* }]
This is a fun tale.
[{( I know you’ll find some parts of it, at least, to your liking. )}]
