Bab 553: Old Leaves And New Sprouts

Selma Payne's POV:

This was the truth - the chilling truth.

Everything was a sacrifice of ambition. The schemes and plots spawned terrifying monsters, and he became the first sacrifice to pay the price of failure.

I didn't know how to comment on this. I couldn't say such high-sounding words like 'the dead should be honored', but I also sincerely felt it was ridiculous.

A plan that had taken generations of effort and countless vengeful souls had disappeared.

The Evaria Family no longer had any power to fight back. That was how a vanity fair was. Any seemingly glamorous and indestructible gorgeous castle was just a shelf made of paper. It looked scary, but once it showed signs of decline, the greedy speculators would rush forward and take every brick.

This was the case for the Evaria Family and the Oromalivira Family.

So I was glad we won.

But was it all over?
