I Became Crown Prince's Wife
Return of the Original Ancia (3)

Laontel was his friend.

Laontel was the first human to know Ser's name.

Ser knew Laontel and Phillip and they grew up together like a family.

Phillip says he loves Ser, but his eyes are always on Laontel.

Still, Ser loves Phillip.

Phillip's father was Emperor of the Zelcan Empire.

But as soon as Phillip was born, the Emperor left his son and wife.

Phillip was deeply hurt by the incident.

Ser wants to heal his wounds.

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

Laontel loves Rakshul. Ser prayed desperately for the two to be together.

If Laontel gets married, Phillip will give up on him. When Laontel and Rakshul are together, Phillip proposes to Ser.

“Ser, I want you to be 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 Philip?"

"I'm worried."

"Agreasing?"

“I'm pathetic and have nothing. I was ignored by my father. Serphania, you're not leaving me, are you?”

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

Ser shook his head.

But Phillip's expression did not change.

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

“No, I won't do it. I'll be with you forever!"

"Then can you really be human?"

"For ever?"

"Yes, for ever."

This means Phillips asks him to relinquish his powers forever and become human.

"…Yes I will."

Ser nodded.

He instinctively notices what Phillip wants.

So he gave her what she wanted.

"I'll give up all my power and give it to you."

"Thank you Serphania."

Phillip looked at Ser with an affectionate look.

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

Ser was happy about it.

'If I were as human as Laontel, Phillip would love me.

Maybe Phillips proposed to her to take her powers.

Ser had thought about it once.

He tried to cover up his anxiety.

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

But that wasn't the only reason why he proposed.

'If it were, he wouldn't be looking at me with such a look.'

Ser amuses himself.

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

"What did you say to Laontel?"

"Huh?"

“If you don't want to be human then don't tell him that!you should have told me, not Laontel! How can you let him misunderstand!?”

"No, I never said that."

Ser shook his head but Phillip looked at him coldly.

“I trust you. I'm very disappointed, Serphania.”

"No! I really didn't say anything.”

"So you mean Laontel lied?"

Laontel's lying?

No, Laontel won't lie.

"He won't lie, but there must be a misunderstanding."

"So you mean you're lying?"

"Do you trust him more than I do?"

“No. Then, is Laontel lying?”

“Eh..”

Ser nodded under Phillip's pressure.

“Why does Laontel do such a thing? He won't lie.”

Right, Laontel won't do it. Phillip knows about that. Ser was about to nod again, but Phillip continued.

"Is he trying to separate us?"

"What?"

A laontel?

"Absolutely. Therehewas. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made up that story. She told me that you don't want to marry me because you don't want to give me your strength.”

Laontel's trying to separate us?

Ser knows Laontel. Laontel only had Rakshul in his heart. He really never considered anyone else.

In addition, Laontel considered Phillip to be his family, so he paid no attention to his feelings at all.

She never even realized that Phillip treated her differently.

But isn't it like that? Did he realize Phillip's feelings?

He knew that, but he pretended not to know and tricked me?

"Absolutely. It was all a lie. Laontel made up all of it because he was jealous of us!”

"But Serphania, did you really not say anything?"

"No."

“You must have said something because Laontel wouldn't act that way for no reason.”

After he left, Ser was filled with anger as he walked to Laontel.

“Why did you say that to Phillip!?”

“That's what I want!I chose to do it because I wanted to give Phillip my power!”

"Laontel, we're no longer friends."

Ser vents his anger at Laontel, and then he goes to Phillip and apologizes.

He was afraid Phillip would leave him.

Ser loves Phillip.

This was the first time he felt that way towards someone.

He can give you anything he asks.

“Phillip, I'll give you all my strength, so please don't leave me.”

Ser begged him again and again.

"This is the last one. If you betray me once again, I will not forgive you”

"Okay, I won't do it again."

He never betrayed Phillip, but he nodded at his words.

Moreover, listening to him made him feel like he had truly betrayed him.

“Serphania, let's go. Let's go to a place where it's just the two of us. We will live together in peace. I can't trust anyone anymore. Not even Laontel.”

"Yes I will.I will do as you say. ”

Ser replied with a bright smile.

If they leave town, Phillip will forget Laontel and just look at him.

They were soon headed for the valley in the west.

They had their own wedding there.

That night, Ser gave him all his strength.

He lost the power of the goddess and became a complete human being.

But it's not too bad. He's feeling happy.

Now, she's really Phillip's wife.

Ser taught Phillip how to use his powers.

Phillip was very kind to her and loved 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 caring for people and planting crops?”

"…why?"

“I feel a lot of evil forces here. Ser, you're a human now. I have to do this to protect you.”

Phillip looked at Serphania.

The power itself has a mission to heal and protect the people who come with it.

That was why his offensive ability was inferior to other powers.

“I will only use it when with you. I have to protect you..”.

"But that sort of thing ..."

It was actually possible to change mana. But using force incorrectly will lead them to greater tragedy.

Ser hesitated as Phillip's expression grew impatient.

"Ser, don't you trust me?"

“Of course I know!”

“Do you ignore me now? Are you sorry you followed me?”

“No, not like that! I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything!”

Ser taught him how to distort power.

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

The valley of chaos was always full of power.

Even though Phillip cast a protective spell there before he left, the demons continued to swarm around the shabby cabin.

Ser is not afraid of them. He's just so lonely.

He misses Laontel.

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

He cast a spell so that Laontel could summon him at any time, and they could visit each other.

Ser has given all his power to Phillip, but the power on the necklace still remains the same.

However, Laontel never visited him.

'He said he was my friend, but he didn't want to see me? Has he forgotten me too? Does he really want to keep me and Phillip apart?'

As Ser's hatred and loneliness slowly piled up, black spots suddenly appeared on his body.

As the power of the light distorted, he had to pay the price, and the illness began to eat up his body.

"What's going on?"

The power of light originally belonged to Ser. But if anyone abuses his power, the responsibility will remain with Ser.

Ser has also given Laontel his powers, but Laontel will not abuse them.

"Ser, is there any way to distort the light?"

Suddenly, he remembered Phillip's voice.

That's Philip.

Phillip has learned how to distort power and now he is doing something with it.

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

At that moment, he heard Laontel's voice.

"Ser, there is a mysterious disease spreading in the Imperial Palace."

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

“Rakshul is gone. She went...”
