Chapter 375
First Time
Valdrova tensed as she crossed over.
How long had it been since she stepped on foreign soil beyond the Far East?
The soil's properties shouldn't differ much, yet the sensation beneath her soles felt strangely unfamiliar.
"So this is the White House......."
The building she'd only heard about through Ferda's stories.
E n̈ ům̃ ã . í d
This was her first time entering this place.
The thrill of being invited to someone else's home.

At the same time, she felt anxiety at the fact that Blancaros himself had invited her.
For some reason, it felt like something bad was going to happen.
Valdrova followed where Blancaros's Spawn guided her.
She guided Valdrova to the second floor.
Еn ů ṁ а ..ĭd̂
There, twelve iron doors encircled a space in a ring.
Each iron door bore the likenesses of the Phases.
Before the one bearing Blancaros's carving, three white men were standing.
The man in the center was someone Valdrova knew well.

The moment she saw his face, she couldn't hide her delight and called his name.
"Blancaros."
Е̇num̃ ā
She beamed a bright smile, as if meeting long-lost family.
A white-haired man with long flowing locks.
He greeted Valdrova with a stiff expression.
"You've come, Valdrova."
"It's been so long. You're still as handsome as ever."
"And you've become even more beautiful."

"Hehe, really? Hearing that from a wonderful person makes me feel incredibly good."
Blancaros scanned her with an expressionless face.
"As I heard...... you've weakened considerably. Because of Godwin and Sierra."
"Yes."
"Wait. Let's sit."
Blancaros gestured in the air.
Е̄n̂u mà
The marble floor softened, turned liquid, and formed into a table and chairs.
Blancaros seated Valdrova and sat himself.

"Your hand, here."
She offered her hand as Blancaros instructed.
As Blancaros took her hand, his long hair lifted upward, pushed back by the density of his mana.
He was creating vital energy with his power and filling the empty spaces within Valdrova's body.
E n u̇m̆ a . їd
"Incredible power."
Valdrova admired him sincerely.
"As expected of Blancaros. With power like this, you could be loved by so many people."
"I think it's boundless, but it doesn't work out that way."

"Why not?"
"Because I couldn't create the thing that could heal that heart of yours...... I couldn't make it."
En ú ṁ а̀. і̊ d
His appearance was wistful, like he was reminiscing, yet also pained by guilt.
Was he speaking of the Dragon-Demon War?
Or something from even before that?
Either way, it became difficult to answer.
"Are you okay?"
Valdrova asked carefully.

"What do you mean?"
Even someone as dense as Valdrova quickly noticed such a subtle look.
"You look like you're sad."
"It can't be helped. That man was your salvation, after all......."
Their clasped hands trembled.
Blancaros spoke in a choked voice.
Ê nu m̃ а̇
"That's why...... only now...... I've become able to convey the words I couldn't say to you until now."
Tears rolled from his eyes.

Valdrova pulled out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped his tears.
"Valdrova."
Blancaros gripped her hand tightly.
"Blancaros?"

"That vitality you believed you suffered from Godwin and isolated yourself for——it's because of our Twilight."
"Twil......ight?"
"Twilight is something that inevitably appears with your existence, and ours. In a sense, you could call it an unconscious instinct to awaken you to your duty."
Blancaros spoke so suddenly.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
But for some reason, Valdrova understood his words a little.
"That man Ferda loved you, so he could suppress it for a while, but even that suppression has its limits."
Eň um̃ã
"Then......."
"Now you must fulfill your duty."
"Wh-what duty do you mean?"
"Some will comply with your duty, and some won't."
"Blancaros. Just what are you......."
"You must reap them with your own hands. You must not repeat the mistake you made with Godwin and Silverwind."
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
He continued speaking as if possessed, and Valdrova's fear grew at the sight.
She wanted to shake off his hand, but the current her couldn't even dream of it.
"I will 'execute' the promise I swore in my name."
At the same time, a sword sprouted from Blancaros's chest.
"Blanc......aros......?"
Valdrova couldn't understand the situation.
Е̂ n̄ù mа .і̃ d̃
Precisely, she didn't want to understand.
Everything was clear, but the reality was too violent to comprehend and accept.

Bright red blood flowed down pristine clothes to the floor.
The amount gushing out told her the heart had been pierced.
The Spawns watching collapsed to the ground.
Mouths opened in silent screams,
W̃е b̄ ň ӧ vè l Еǹü m̄ а
One lowered the scales in his hands and clutched his head.
The remaining one——Hand. He stubbornly gripped the sword and drove it deeper.
Leaving not the slightest margin.
"I am your first."

He said, vomiting blood.
"As they say the first is half, you've come halfway now, Valdrova. Now you must do what you must do."
Е̃n.u m а̄. i ḋ
Blancaros reached out and caressed Valdrova's face.
Valdrova looked at his face and her thoughts stopped once more.
His always expressionless face looked refreshed, as if finally released.
"Please...... grant us night."
Hearing those words, Valdrova suddenly realized something.
Something she'd forgotten because she hadn't used it for so long.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Yet the gesture she made moved with utter familiarity.
As if she'd known it since the moment she set foot on this land.
Valdrova placed her hand on his head.
"Blancaros. Phase of Order and Creation."
Absolute authority melting into her voice.
She was not merely the Phase of Fire and Power, but a Dragon Lord.
Eǹ u mа̃
As a King, she commanded him.
"I shall bestow eternal night upon you."

Blancaros smiled in relief.
"Thank...... you."
Blancaros quietly knelt and bowed his head.
With his last breath, he exhaled something white.
Wеb noṽе́_l̊ Ên ú m̃ а̊
It was a pure, powerful essence——Essence.
That Essence hovered briefly in Valdrova's hand before scattering.
Blancaros's pulse faded and finally sank into the depths.
The dragon who had lived for eternity met his death today.

The Spawns carried his body away, weeping.
Valdrova felt pity for them.
Еñ ů m а..і̆_d̃
But she didn't apologize or try to comfort them.
"Lady Valdrova."
Blancaros's Hand——the one who had held the sword——approached.
His gaze was strange.
Resentment, as if blaming her for killing Blancaros, yet also relief at seeing him freed from suffering.
He shed hot tears while bowing politely.

"Thank you for granting mercy to our Master."
The words "I'm sorry" wouldn't come out.
Knowing he didn't want such words, she closed her mouth and nodded politely.
Blancaros's Hand continued speaking.
"The White House will now sink according to Blancaros-nim's plan."
"What plan?"
Wѐb́ń о̌v̄el̆ Ĕn̈u̇m̄ а́
"The second floor of this mansion was built for all dragons."
Twelve iron doors.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
It was spacious, but could hardly be called a place for dragons.
Above all, two Spawns carried Blancaros's body, opened Blancaros's iron door, and entered inside.
Through that, Valdrova became certain.
"This place...... was a tomb."
W̊ e bǹ о v̆ е ĺ Еn̂ u.ḿa
"Yes. It is where all dragons gain eternal rest and their souls are enshrined."
Only then did she understand why they'd brought her there.
They laid Blancaros's body on a dais at the far end and wept over him.
Hand followed behind them and caught the door he'd left open.

"Please...... don't let our Master's sacrifice...... be in vain."
He closed the iron door bearing Blancaros's carving.
Еn̆ ů m å . і́ d̀
At that moment, the door's boundary vanished, sealing completely.
Simultaneously, the carving began to shine vividly.
She felt the White Dragon, Blancaros, was there.
The massive mansion sank downward.
The ground gave way, and the land restored itself as if someone had artificially filled it.
Only the round, dome-shaped second floor of the White House remained above ground.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The grand mansion that had governed the continent's order had transformed into a space to mourn someone's death.
"Blancaros......."
Valdrova recalled her memories with Blancaros.
He looked expressionless and rational, but inside he was softer than anyone.
He was the dragon who grieved most for the deaths of the beings he created.
Valdrova had occasionally seen him weeping silently, unable to show anyone.
Е n ŭ m a.іd
At those times, she'd embraced and comforted him.
No need to worry.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Everything will be fine.
Now he was dead.
She'd never see him again.
Tears flowed.
Е̌ nü m̂ а́ . ï d̀
His death was undoubtedly sad.
But Valdrova didn't hesitate or waver at that death.
"Blancaros......."
These flowing tears will eventually dry.

Even this immense sorrow will remain as memory.
"I'll become happy."
Ě ń um̆ å .і̂ d̃
Valdrova finally chose.
The immortal life that mortals considered a blessing.
Now was the time to reap it.
At least until the wedding arrives, she must end this terrible night.

Late afternoon.

Ferda was working alone in his office.
He planned to have a simple dinner and focus only on work.
Knock knock——.
The sound of someone entering.
He wanted to tell them not to come.
"Come in."
W.e̊ b̃ ňȯ v еl E.n̄ ũḿa
He had no choice but to let them in.
Thinking he might scold them, he opened his mouth as the person poked their head through the door crack.

"Eleanor."
The name that even rising anger settles.
Valdrova——she had come.
"Have you finished work?"
W̊е̇_b̊ ń о̀ṽ е l̆ Ё n̈.ǔm̃ а̌
Far from it.
He wondered if he could finish by tonight.
"Yes, just now."
But what did that matter?
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Ferda set everything aside and walked to her.
"Is something wrong? Eleanor?"
Е n̄uma. іd
"Just came to see you."
Smiling brightly, swaying her body.
Lips moving as if chewing, eyes curved in joy.
Her hands behind her back told him she was hiding something.
Everything was lovely.
"Want me to show you something good?"

"Yes. I'd like that."
She brought her hands forward from behind her back.
The anti-puncture rubber Penelope made for Valdrova.
Attached to the pair of horns protruding forward.
He knew what it meant.
That's why Ferda hesitated.

"Is your power not far from returning?"
Days when even skinship was kept light because strength control was hard.

If he made a mistake, Ferda could become the man who died from Valdrova's embrace.
"Blancaros gave me vital energy. So I've recovered like before."
"Ah, is that so?"
Cautious about whether to believe it, yet it was what Ferda had also wished for.
Е n ũ m̈ а́
He carefully embraced Valdrova.
They softly wrapped around each other.
A clear fruity scent wafted from the crown of her head.
An urge surged to take a big bite.

"Blancaros wanted me to kill him."
Valdrova said that.
Ẽ ṅ u m̀ а̇
Ferda held her tighter at those words.
"He asked something hard of you."
"It was something I had to do."
Valdrova reflected on the duty she'd realized through Blancaros.
"I'd just been dragging my feet, unable to do things I couldn't tell anyone about."
"Because you wanted them to be happy."
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"Yes. So I couldn't see the true nature of it properly."
"Can you do it?"
"I have to. Even for their sake."
The old fear was gone.
"And for your sake, too."
At those words, Ferda felt complicated rather than happy.
Ė ň ûm̄ а̄
If Petunia hadn't suddenly shown up, if Sierra hadn't said those words, he would've been purely happy.
"Ferda-ssi."
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
"Yes."
"I...... want to have a baby soon."
His heart felt like it dropped to the floor.
"What about you, Ferda-ssi?"

"......Same here."
He acted calm, deceiving her.
"Then why don't you pounce on me?"
"......Excuse me?"

"Ludmilla said so. That when a man sees a woman he likes, he pounces."
Ludmilla Consillus.
W_еb̃ ńо v́ ē l̃ Е ṅu ḿ ä
He'd guessed, but she was a woman similar to Penelope.
"Will you pounce on me?"
"I won't."
"I knew you'd say that."
"Valdrova."
He tried to gently pull her away, but couldn't escape her restraint.

"Then I'll pounce on you, Ferda-ssi."
"Valdrova......!"
"I'll make it so you can't move at all."
Strong but soft.
Voluptuous curves pushed aggressively, the contact marks vividly awakening Ferda's cells.
The Red Circle spun around his heart, tormenting Ferda.

"Since I'm going to pounce on you, from here on......."
Valdrova's eyes lowered as she trailed off.

She said pounce, so he held her tight, but what came next?
Thinking deeply alone, she lifted her head.
"What...... should I do?"
Golden eyes shone with pure innocence.
W е b n̂ оv е l Enum̌а
Even with two demons as friends, not a speck of impurity.
Like a field covered in snow in midwinter.
Ferda didn't want to set his muddy feet on that pure white field.
"You are......."

Ferda placed his hand on her face.
What filled his face was subtle anger.
Е n u m а .і̃ d̀
"Truly cowardly."
A cowardly woman who stirs desire, then hides inside purity at the end.
But Ferda wasn't a fool who'd act like a blockhead forever.
That's why Ferda pulled Valdrova's head closer.
Their lips met.
He set his muddy foot on the pure white field.

"!!"
Valdrova gasped, her body going stiff.
A sensation she'd never felt before.
An act whose meaning she couldn't properly understand.
It prevented any words from coming out, yet was a purer conversation clearer than any words.
Breath that nearly stopped mingled.
Ё n.um̊а̊. i̊ d̊
Her scent became part of Ferda, and Ferda's scent became part of Valdrova.
Her hands that had held him purely cautiously let go, and Ferda supported Valdrova's waist, holding her.

A conversation long if long, short if short.
They shared the quietest, closest conversation, and their lips parted with lingering regret.
Ferda looked at Valdrova's face again.
She had become a single rose.
Е́ñu m̂ а . і̂ d̈
Golden eyes shrank in surprise, her bright red face deeper than her hair color.
Hic.
Valdrova started hiccuping from shock.
Seeing a small flame pop from her mouth, she covered her own mouth.

"Ferda......-ssi?"

Her greatly heaving chest made her forget what she was trying to ask.
Ferda asked such a Valdrova this:
"Did you hate it?"
"......."
She couldn't answer.
Her heart beating wildly pounded even harder.

Valdrova ultimately couldn't say anything and ran off with quick steps.
She went to the terrace and jumped down.
Ferda didn't chase her.
The heat hadn't subsided for him either.
