Several months have passed since that incident. Today, Gadriel and Rasuel come to visit the Vankriff resident together. They also bring a bouquet of flowers with them. As usual, Lawrence, the head butler greets them at the front gate of the estate.
Lawrence: “Your Highness, no matter how many times you come to visit, you won’t be able to see Lady Ellen.”

Without losing his composure, Lawrence plainly said the same thing that he had said to them every time they came to visit.
Gadriel: “………Just a glance is alright.”
Rasuel: “Is that still no good?”
Since the day when they met Ellen for the first time after their father called them, the figure of a lovely girl who looked at them with her beautiful eyes while staying in the arm of the hero never leaves their minds. However, in a split second, those beautiful pair of eyes were clouded in fear when she kept staring at them.
After that, some mysterious mist appeared and they heard the voices of resentments from the mist. At first, they heard so many painful cries who were begging to be released. Then the voices turned into curses and resentments to the royal family. The sight of the spectacle is seared deeply even in their dreams. In their dream, the humans were trampling on the spirits and doing something to them. The action brought the wrath of the spirits and the spirits slaughtered the human. The scenes were so vivid like they were there when the actual event happened.
That girl was crying at the scene and shrieking at them together with the voices.
Ellen: “Why did you do such terrible things?”
When they woke up, their Father broke out the truth to them and their face turns pale at the revelation. The dream was real. Their dream actually happened in the past. The person who did the horrible act was the ancestor of the Royal family. In order to find out more information about the incident, the King was rummaging the Palace library. After looking around, he finally found a part of the information that was hidden by the spirit’s magic.
The Monster Tempest incident 200 years ago.
At that time, the King took a despicable action to protect the citizen. Since then, the Royal family has been abandoned by the spirits who reside in the country. At the moment, the Royal family has finally understood the reason behind the abandonment, and the truth has left them no other choice than to turn pallid.
The Ancestor wanted some power to protect the citizen and broke the taboo.
At first, the Ancestor captured several spirit sorcerers (a human who has made a contract with spirit like Rovel) as hostages. The spirits who tried to save their contractor were captured and became sacrifices. Repeating the evil cycle, the spirits were crucified alive with magic. The spirits were kept alive in torture. Spirits’ agony cries could be heard in the neighbourhood and the other spirits’ who heard their brothers’ cries, came continuously to save them. At a specific place, the ancestor captured those spirits who were coming to save their brothers and used them as sacrifices too.
As some time passed, the spirits in the surrounding area started to die. Nevertheless, the ancestor still used numerous spirits as a tool to create the spirit gate. When the gate finally appeared, the enraged great spirits came from the gate.
The Great Spirits: “Despicable humans! What an immoral thing to do!!”
The humans who watched the Great Spirits slashed the spirit sorcerers one by one into tiny pieces became flustered at the sight. Some sorcerers were burned to ashes and some others were stuffed into a sphere of water and were struggled to breathe. The humans were also easily crushed by huge pile of stones that kept raining on them. In a split second, their position was reversed.
After the place turned into a sea of blood and everything became silent, the Great Spirits who were still enraged finally dropped a couple of words.
The Great Spirits: “Where is your King?”

The furious appearance of the enraged Great Spirits made the humans finally realize that they had invoked the anger of something that should not be provoked.
At the moment, the princes are used to be turned away at the gate of the Vankriff residence. Each time they always come with a gift in hand. They bring various gifts such as girl accessories, sweets or flowers. However, Lawrence always insists that Ellen is not in the residence. To further convince them, Lawrence lets them enter the house. However, they still unable to see even a glance of Ellen. When they learned from their father that Ellen is a child of a spirit, they wanted to apologize to her at any cost. If she is a spirit, then naturally as the descendants of the Royal family, they want to apologize to her. But they heard that Ellen has fallen sick just like they were back then and has returned to the spirit realm. Despite that, they don’t want to give up to apologize to her personally. They really want to see even a glance of her.
On the other hand, Ellen’s father, Rovel is apparently seen to be going in and out of the Vankriff residence regularly. Therefore, they want to meet him to talk about Ellen. Because of this, they repeatedly barge into the residence to catch up with him.
Every year, a spirit festival is being held. At the end of the festival, the royal family will pray at the stone monument. In the past, they had never been told about the real reason why the Royal Family pray at the monument. They were told to pray in the forest which is connected to the spirit realm to beg the spirits to answer them because the spirits have forsaken the Royal Family for 200 years. However, they now firmly know that it was not the real reason why the Royal Family held the prayer there. From the voices and the dream that they saw, the stone monument was the place where the tragedy happened.
On one day, they head to the Vankriff residence as usual. However, they are surprised at an unusual thing that happens during their visit. Usually, after they finish their tea, they will leave in a dejected mood after being told that they cannot meet Ellen. Today, on the way to the exit, they meet with an unfamiliar girl.
“Who are you guys?”
The girl has light brown hair. Although she is pretty, her demeanor is unsophisticated. As she stares at them in amazement, the two brothers look at each other.
Gadriel: “Are you one of the servants of this house?”
The girl: “This is my house.”
Gadriel: “…Eh? Is your father’s name Rovel?”
The girl: “That’s my uncle’s name. My father’s name is Sauvell. “
Rasuel: “You are Sauvell’s daughter?”
Looking at Rasuel’s surprise reaction, the girl speaks again with an angry tone.
The girl: “Who are you guys? Why are you coming into my house?”
Gadriel: “…………Didn’t Lawrence tell you anything?”
The Girl: “Lawrence? That person never tells me anything!”
The two princes are surprised when the girl suddenly becomes really mad.
The Girl: “It always like that. He always says that it has nothing to do with me and my mother and he won’t disclose anything. I heard from the maids that Ellen, my cousin is talking to Father and the adults even though she is the same age as me. Everyone is alienating us. Isn’t it cruel?”
Gadriel: “Ellen!? Did you say Ellen!?”
Rasuel: “Ellen is here!?”
