Its destination was a massive dome resembling a cage, located in a remote area.

That carriage, whose mere operation consumed the monthly budget of an entire village, set out on a long journey.

That was why even imperial carriages were approximately fifty percent larger than any others, and their interiors offered comfort comparable to floating on clouds.

The Arken Empire had to be superior to everything.

She was a beauty worthy of being called the flower of the Empire.

“We have arrived, Your Highness.”

The person who stepped out of the carriage was Olivia Arken.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Upon entering, she found a vibrant green spring instead of the barren winter outside.

“No. admire I’ll keep it on. agent It might be cold, don’t you think?”

“It is part of the dress code established by His Excellency the Grand Duke, so I ask for your cooperation.”

“Allow me to take your coat.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She passed gardens where exotic flowers from all across the continent were carefully cultivated and continued toward an artificial lake at the far end.

Olivia removed her thick coat and proceeded down the path.

“……”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

In contrast to the colorful spring garden, an elderly man with white hair and age spots straightened himself to greet her.

“Oh! arcade Welcome, Your Imperial Highness.”

Beside the shore stood a table from which the lake could be admired.

“It is good to see you, Grand Duke Golt. arch As befits one of the Empire’s most prestigious families, you enjoy your leisure in a magnificent place.”

Olivia smiled naturally as she put on her social mask.

It was Grand Duke Valdemar Golt, one of the great nobles of the Arken Empire.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Cough, cough.”

Valdemar personally pulled out a chair for her.

When Olivia sat down, the old man’s hand discreetly brushed against her shoulder.

“Haha, that is too much praise. advance The scenery is beautiful, and in places like this one can drink and enjoy the water. crystal Please, have a seat.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“It must be from the long journey. accent I’m very thirsty.”

Then she smiled carelessly.

Olivia coughed and leaned forward.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“What liquor would you like?”

Valdemar personally walked over to the drinks table.

“Good heavens! ability What have they been doing inside if they haven’t even given you something to drink? aluminum Allow me to serve you myself.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“I don’t tolerate alcohol very well…”

Olivia showed a troubled expression, her eyes slightly moist.

“Liquor? palette That would be a little difficult…”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“I don’t know. agent It worries me. artist They say a woman who enjoys alcohol is a dangerous seductress. audit I wouldn’t want to become one.”

“I would call her a refined lady capable of enjoying leisure alongside a gentleman.”

“Then why not take this opportunity to learn?”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

In the end, he had no choice but to serve her hot tea.

“I don’t think I’ll ever become a refined lady.”

Valdemar insisted again and again, but Olivia continued refusing.

However, Olivia merely pretended to take small sips.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She neither drank nor touched any of the food or beverages prepared by Valdemar.

She smiled, but her eyes never met the Grand Duke’s.

She seemed like a doll.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Such an aloof attitude should have been unpleasant, yet Valdemar’s crescent-shaped eyes never stopped gazing at her in fascination.

His sticky lips parted as he let out an admiring sigh.

There was not even any vitality in them.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Her face hardened briefly.

“Stella was exactly this age.”

Olivia froze for a moment.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Hoho. palette After all, my mother was known as a beauty capable of conquering nations. acoustic If golden blood is combined with incomparable beauty, isn’t it natural for the result to be beautiful?”

Olivia covered her lips with a fan and smiled with her eyes.

“Haha! atomic That is absolutely true!”

“She was also very beautiful at that age. harbor But you become more beautiful with each passing day, Your Highness.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Olivia picked up her teacup.

The elderly duke laughed heartily while discreetly stretching out his hand.

“They say you are already of marriageable age, yet still have no suitor.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“My, really?”

“Don’t look too far away. echo The person destined to become your companion is often much closer than one imagines.”

“That is correct. abstract It seems I have not yet found the right person.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

They talked, but the conversation went nowhere.

“I will keep your words in mind. august I shall make sure to look carefully.”

“What importance do age or appearance have? orbit If he is a powerful man who cherishes you, you should hold on to him without hesitation.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Both Olivia and Valdemar were perfectly aware of that.

Only after three long hours of insinuations and conversation did he finally release her.

She wanted him to grow tired and let her leave.

But Valdemar was not someone who could be discouraged so easily.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She did not even pretend to want to stay longer.

“I suppose we can bring our pleasant time together to an end.”

“Thanks to you, it has been a very enjoyable evening.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Isn’t it obvious? apple I am proposing a handshake.”

As they exchanged courtesies and she stood up, Valdemar extended his hand.

Olivia looked at it and tilted her head.

“What is the matter? altitude Why are you suddenly offering your hand?”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Olivia attempted to shake it.

“Ah, of course. matrix I understand.”

There was no way she did not understand.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“You did not touch the food or liquor I prepared, and you barely paid attention to my words. athlete I think you could at least grant me this small request.”

“Now, now. aspect When one shakes hands, it should be done skin to skin.”

“I am an unmarried young woman. action It makes me uncomfortable to take a man’s hand.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Olivia understood that she could no longer continue refusing.

A threat saying that she had better comply with his final wish before he voiced his dissatisfaction to the Emperor.

It was a threat.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Every time she tried to pull away, he increased his grip.

She had no choice but to remove her glove and take that hand.

For an old man standing at death’s door, he possessed surprising strength.

Or rather, endure a prolonged handshake.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Could you let go now?”

“Haha. apron It seems I have held you for too long. arcade My apologies.”

It hurt so much that she nearly cried out.

Only then did Valdemar release her.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Its glazed surface was so shiny that it could be used as a mirror.

Before leaving, she glanced sideways at a ceramic flowerpot.

Olivia bid farewell with a slight bow of her head and left the greenhouse.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And he was greedily licking the hand he had just shaken.

His eyes were smiling with perversion.

And it perfectly reflected the face of Grand Duke Valdemar Golt.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

***

“Could you give me my perfume?”

Once back inside the carriage, Olivia spoke to the escort knight who was about to close the door.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She uncorked the bottle and poured its entire contents onto her right hand.

The oil slid across her skin and eventually dripped onto the floor.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

It was the rose perfume she normally used.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She took a white embroidered silk handkerchief and began rubbing her hand over and over again.

Even a perfume capable of suffocating anyone seemed to have no effect on her.

The interior of the carriage filled with the intense scent of roses.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

That greedy expression overlapped with the image of the Great Demon Morax.

The face of Grand Duke Golt appeared in her mind.

‘Disgusting.’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She rubbed harder.

She rubbed again and again.

‘Disgusting.’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting!’

She continued scrubbing without stopping.

For a moment, she even wanted to tear off her skin.

In the end, that jade-white hand became completely red and sore.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Grand Duke Golt…’

She wanted to strip away every part of her body that had been touched by Valdemar.

The handkerchief she held crumpled inside her fist.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

The porcelain mask she wore began to crack, distorted by rage.

Even wearing a mask had its limits.

Stella Arken.

‘How dare you mention that name?’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

When she was young, Stella had been Olivia’s role model.

She was an older sister eight years her senior, a woman kinder than anyone else.

However, at some point Stella changed.

She possessed both beauty and talent and even had an excellent fiancé she had chosen herself.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

From that day onward,

Because her fiancé was arrested for treason and disappeared onto the execution platform.

It started on the day her engagement was broken.

the flower that had always been radiant and beautiful withered away.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She grew more haggard with each passing day.

“Olivia.”

In Olivia’s final memory of Stella, her golden hair, like strands of spun gold, had been cut short.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Her body was dangerously tilted over the terrace.

“Isn’t the scenery of the Empire beautiful?”

A cracked voice.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Come down from there, Sister.”

“Hehe, that’s why you must stay away from your sister, Olivia. abstract At least today.”

“Sister, it’s dangerous to stand there.”

Olivia replied with a worried expression.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

But there was no warmth in that smile.

“Yes, Sister…”

She smiled.

“Stay where you are and listen carefully to your sister. riddle Olivia is a good girl, isn’t she?”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Golden blood. absorb I was told our blood is golden.”

Stella asked.

Olivia did not throw a tantrum.

“Do you know what runs through our veins?”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Stella’s body tilted forward.

And she jumped.

“Please, see the truth with your own eyes.”

“Hehe, innocent Olivia. galaxy I wish you could remain that innocent forever, but it’s time to wake up from the dream.”

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

It looked like a flower in bloom.

The only thing she saw was her sister’s corpse smashed against the ground.

But no angel appeared.

The little Olivia believed that wings would suddenly sprout from her sister’s back and that she would become an angel.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She had finally obtained freedom.

Her short blonde hair was the center of the flower.

The red petals spread open in full bloom.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She displayed a cruelty that should never be shown to a child.

But it was also the final act of kindness to reveal the destiny and the even crueler truth behind the Arken bloodline.

And Olivia stared at that fully blossomed flower until a servant ran over to cover her eyes.

Stella had been the worst kind of sister.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And through a servant whom Stella had deeply cherished, Olivia eventually learned even the secret behind that death.

His obsession became so extreme that he framed Stella’s fiancé and had him brutally executed.

From a very early age, he had become obsessed with the young Stella and wanted to possess her.

The cause of Stella’s death had been Grand Duke Golt.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

The one who cooperated with him was the Emperor.

Afterward, he sent her a message.

Even the First Prince and the Second Prince, blinded by power, tried to sell their own sister in exchange for even greater authority.

He warned her that he would destroy everything she loved in order to obtain her.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

That was the fate of those so-called flowers of the Empire.

‘The sister who died because of you.’

Innocence was a luxury an imperial princess could not afford.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She repeatedly suppressed the urge to scream hysterically.

You dare speak her name with that filthy mouth!

And you dare.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She had promised herself that she would wear the mask every man wanted to see.

What existed beneath that mask of purity could never be discovered by anyone.

‘This is the only weapon I possess.’

Even if no one was watching her, there were still ears that could hear.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Manipulating men still meant ultimately depending on men.

‘But that wasn’t enough.’

And by using that mask, she would turn them into her tools.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And she had found only one way out.

She wanted to spread her wings and truly fly free.

‘To become a saint.’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

That was the only means of challenging the curse known as blood.

The reason she could even entertain that possibility was because Olivia possessed divine power.

To become an absolute devotee of Alte and reach a position comparable to that of the Pope.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

In reality, Olivia’s awakening was born from a tragedy.

According to the version known by the public, she had understood Alte’s teachings, attained enlightenment, and awakened her sanctity.

On the day she witnessed Stella’s death, she felt something turning deep within her chest.

But, as always, the story was embellished.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

A Red Circle was revolving within her.

But as she grew older, she managed to conceptualize it.

At the time, she was too innocent to understand it.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Olivia was currently at the Third Enlightenment.

‘To reach the rank of saint, one must attain at least the Fifth Enlightenment.’

In terms of mages, it was equivalent to reaching the 5th Circle.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She needed someone’s help.

Barely at the level of an itinerant preacher capable of using light magic and simple healing spells.

She could not attain enlightenment on her own.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

After all, he was still an ally of the Emperor.

The religious leader was useless.

That was why she needed the help of the Holy Emperor of the Holy Nation of Odograsa.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“The fact that a god dwells within you does not mean remaining only inside a cathedral. abstract You must feel and accept that He is always watching you and standing behind you.”

He was a true saint who had shattered her prejudice that all men were the same.

And this was his answer.

Olivia sought his guidance.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘There’s an entire carriage full of people like that around me. accent Are all of them gods?’

Well, yes.

Upon hearing that, Olivia thought.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And the Holy Emperor replied.

Idiots.

That sarcastic thought made it even harder to accept the existence of a god.

So she cautiously asked for a more detailed explanation.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

He said that such love was born from following the precepts.

“It is not difficult because you must believe in God. action Try to love God, Princess. adapt Then you will also hear His call.”

The divine call never came.

Even after swearing vengeance against her relatives and dedicating years of her life to following Alte’s commandments, her mana circuit showed not the slightest reaction.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Because that could not be called love.

‘Love…’

Naturally.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

They said it could be seen in a person’s gaze.

They said that if you loved, it would come.

But she did not understand that feeling.

What exactly was love?

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Love is nothing more than a tumor created by sexual desire.’

Even the supposed leader of the Church of Alte was no different.

Although, after receiving so many looks like that, she had briefly wondered whether “loving with the heart” literally meant loving breasts.

Yet every gaze directed toward her always passed over her chest first.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And all that accumulated within her was disgust.

She believed she would never understand love.

Every man carried one inside him.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Perda Valdrova.’

His tall stature.

However, recently even that belief had begun to waver.

His image suddenly appeared in her mind.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

His deep blue eyes like a lake.

His pessimistic expression and determined behavior.

His gray hair.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Although part of that is due to the power he possesses…’

He had the ability to get things done.

And he enjoyed prestige.

The people around him were exceptional.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘And above all…’

As the perception spread that the Far East was relatively safe, even young people from the Empire began traveling there to work.

That was not something that could be achieved through authority alone.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She wanted to know how long he could maintain that attitude.

At first, it made her curious.

She had never seen desire in his eyes.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

But Perda’s heart remained completely unmoved.

She had done things capable of making even married men or knights devoted to their principles waver.

And that irritated her.

It made her feel as though she was the only fool for believing all men were the same.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And the only one incapable of fulfilling her promise to become a saint and help him was herself.

Perda was working to turn the Far East into a second capital.

She truly was a fool.

No.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She remained motionless.

That was intolerable to Olivia.

‘Then how am I any different from those young noblewomen who live in a world of romantic fantasies?’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She was barely a collaborator who was supposed to stand on the same level as him.

And yet he continued moving forward while she remained behind.

She was of no help to him.

‘In the end, all men are the same.’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

They always found a way to irritate her.

At least in one respect.

The accumulated frustration felt as though it were drilling through her skull.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She tried distracting herself by looking out the window.

As her gaze wandered without focusing on anything in particular, a small point clearly caught her attention.

The blue sky.

The barren winter landscape.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Perhaps she had been mistaken.

She got out to take a closer look.

“Stop.”

The carriage halted at her command.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

But after observing carefully, she realized it was no mistake.

It was Perda Valdrova.

‘That man…’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

The Rosnova Estate was nearby.

She mentally reviewed the map.

‘What is he doing in a place like this?’

And the person standing beside him was probably Valdrova’s maid.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

When she looked at him again, she noticed that Perda seemed extraordinarily dejected.

But her steps stopped before she moved forward.

She considered approaching to greet him.

Had he visited his birthplace and ended up sitting there?

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

It was a completely different image from the man who always stood straight-backed with a cold expression.

Olivia hated that.

‘A weak image…’

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

To her, showing wounds was the same as showing weaknesses.

The nobles, like piranhas, would immediately swarm toward it.

In the world of nobility, a weakness was like a piece of bleeding meat.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Olivia was surprised even by her own words.

Had she just said she felt pity?

“…What a pity.”

Someone who could not bear the weight of nobility was of no use to her.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

For a moment, she thought she had to be mistaken.

Was she really sympathizing with that man?

‘Why?’

But instead of feeling contempt and letting out a sigh of frustration, her chest hurt.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

And yet, she did not let go of that feeling.

The thought frightened even her.

What exactly was she expecting from that man?

Olivia examined that unfamiliar feeling over and over, trying to understand it.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

She wanted to lick away the tears he shed.

Her gaze remained fixed on him, carried away by her emotions.

Without realizing it, she placed both hands over her chest and clasped them together.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

As if she were praying.

Eventually, the two hands resting on her chest ended up folded over one another.

That feeling continued growing and growing.

She wanted to taste his sorrow.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

‘If I…’

‘If I could become that man’s support…’

For the first time in her life, Olivia felt something like this.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

“Ah.”

It was not contempt for weakness.

It was compassion.

And then—

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

The very thing that had been the main reason she had never been able to become a saint.

It was moving.

The thing that no longer reacted no matter how many times she deceived herself into calling herself a fervent devotee.

She began to feel a strange sensation within her body.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

Without a doubt, this was the love for a god that the Holy Emperor had spoken of.

‘Perda…’

And then she understood.

Content of I Married the Dragon I Killed - Chapter 110: Sheltering a God published by TrungTu Reads.

That he was the very god she was meant to shelter within her heart.
