Bab 515: Mr. and Mrs. Monster - IV

Suellen knew better than anyone that the reign of the Flamefeast was over. 

Her unrealistic dreams had been shattered… in such an absurd manner. 

She would rather have been killed by Evora, who inherited the power of the Flamefeast, or seen her mother truly find a way to ascend to the seventh stage and achieve eternity. She would have preferred such a failure over losing in such a ridiculous way.

As a member of the Flamefeast, she would rather face punishment from someone who shared her blood than… endure the miserable fate that might await her. 

Sorcerers might capture her out of curiosity about the Flamefeast bloodline, or perverse strongmen might take her as a plaything because of her royal status. In any case… her end would be unimaginably tragic. 

But why? Why did Suellen not flee immediately like her kin, to wander in exile?

"How long have you been here, dear Princess Suellen?"

...It was because of this.
