"What are we fighting for?" 

Iris was the name of the Underworld's first demon queen. For thousands of years, she reigned over the demons and fought countless wars against the Holy Palace, defending her homeland. No matter how many lives were sacrificed, the war never ended. 

Tired, she challenged the strongest Paladin to a deathmatch. On that fateful day, she used up all her magic to seal the two of them inside an unbreakable crystal, and cast a spell of eternal rest. 

When she woke up, she was no longer Iris. She had possessed the body of Serenia Aubellin, the newly elected Saintess.

"Have you ever heard of a marriage so grand that the entire world was united?"

"..Of course that's not the case. All of the Holy Palace's trained guards are competent, qualified people." Being confronted like that, Elias shifted his sitting position, crossing his legs.

It was like he was playing a game of chess with the woman in front of him. A mind warfare that she incited.

Why did she suddenly become like this? From the beginning, he had observed her very closely. A young girl who was easy to manipulate and please.

An irritating, uncomfortable feeling rose up in his heart.

"Mhm, I believe so too. Then, can I take that as an approval to my request?" Serenia clasped her hands and happily said. "Please don't worry too much, I'm just going to take a very casual stroll around town and buy some things. If you'd like one, I'll get you a small souvenir on my way back."
