Seven years have passed since Yvonne and Paradis first met.
Kiryan Hishleger listened to his subordinate, Eric’s, report while he prepared for his departure.
They gathered people called “Franz” who were in Furtra and its vicinity.
“I looked for a couple of people, but no one had the description you mentioned.”
Eric went through the personal details on the document once again.
Bright-blonde, blue-gray round eyes, pearl-colored skin, and a roaring voice. The person in the document is ten years old.
It’s a boy.
It’s been eleven years already, and the boy’s blonde hair might have darkened, and turned dirty blonde or brown.
It couldn’t be ruled out that the skin was clean, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the voice didn’t match the appearance.
His clues we’re only the names without surnames, age, and some simple descriptions. Only righteousness was everything.
Still, Eric, as he has been doing for the past few years, is a professional.
‘I had to find the boy named “Franz”, who must have been a young man now. The orders of Duke Kiryan Hishleger need to be done because he is scary when he is mad.’ he thought to himself.
Kiryan Hishleger.
He was the “King of the Night” ruled Furtra, the world’s worst crime city, and the nephew of the country’s emperor. He was a powerful man with the title of Duke.
Of course, only a few people know that he is the real owner of Furtra. Externally, the king of Furtra was known as the Emperor.
“However, in the capital, there was a guy with a similar description.”
“In the capital?”
Kiryan, who was wearing cufflinks, turned to Eric like a golden beast.
Eric shivered.
“Yes. One of the members of the Aliosa Theater. The age is unknown, but the description was similar.”
Eric laid on the table the portraits that were secretly painted by the street peddlers.
It was difficult to recognize precisely because it was drawn quickly with black charcoal, but Kiryan’s gaze stayed on the portraits for a long time.
Especially around the eyes with the bright smile.
“Blonde and blue eyes were confirmed. It is said that he is quite small for a man.”
“He’s been small since he was young so there’s a possibility it’s him. I’ll go there after visiting the imperial palace.”
“Understood. I will mark his location.”
Kiryan thinks that he may be able to reunite with Franz this time, and prepares to go to the Imperial Palace.

“The rose garden is open?”
Yvonne, who visited the Imperial Library after a long time, widened her eyes when she heard the news from the librarian.
Yvonne, the greedy woman who spread rumors in the silver capital, was nowhere to be seen.
In fact, she is so clear and beautiful that anyone who meets Yvonne Moore will know that the rumors are just rumors.
She was a determined person.
“Oh my gosh. That’s great news! I’m going to take a look at lunchtime later.”
“Yvonne, please go quickly.”
“I would. Thank you for letting me know.”
“Oh! and please be careful not to wander in the garden of the Empress.”
“Absolutely.”
Yvonne grabbed her borrowed books. She shoved the cards loosely between the books then she headed to the Rose garden.
It was one of the things Yvonne looked forward to every year, to see the imperial gardens, which are open seasonally.
The imperial gardens are said to be the most beautiful in all of the empire.
Couples usually flock the garden but Yvonne was always alone. She didn’t mean it.
This is because she was not very interested in love, and was naive enough to be satisfied with seeing flowers in full bloom in spring.
“I should also plant a white roses in my mansion.” Yvonne thought, while tapping the petals of a white rose
When her parents were alive and lived in the rural area of Münster, the Moore mansion had many flowering trees.
Her mother and Diana loved spring. It’s a pity that they all left in the spring they love, but when the season of blooming comes, she can feel the tender love welling up with memories of the time she spent with her family.
“I’ll have to ask Paradis to come with me before the flowers bloom.”
For the past seven years, Paradis has been Yvonne’s one and only best friend. They know what the other is thinking just by looking into each other’s eyes.
As she wandered through the garden, she did not realize that she had unwittingly wandered into the Empress’s garden.
“Huh?”
Wild flowers are also blooming in the Imperial Palace. Yvonne went to see the little nameless flowers under the tree.
‘Maybe the gardener didn’t clean it up.’ She bowed down.
Then, over the bushes, with the sound of footsteps, and a proud neck, a sound was heard.
“If it wasn’t for the half-royal blood flowing through your body, you would never have been able to enter my garden.” Yvonne shranked at the sharp, cold voice.
“I do not believe in the loyalty of the Lord. An illegitimate child who was rolling on the floor has earned such a prestigious title.”
‘What should I do?’
“I admit. They were loyal to wealth and honor, not to your half-blood.”
A very low, resonant voice sounded like the sound of a beast. Even without looking at his face, it was clear what the man looked like.
Yvonne held her breath.
Her senses were correct. For a man, he had the ability to bite the opponent’s neck right away. He warns with an inward laugh at the Empress’s attitude, with her chin held up in fright.
“Did Your Majesty recognize you as his nephew, just because you were the son of the deceased Archduke Hishleger. How dare him give the status of the imperial family to an illegitimate child who inherited the blood of a lowly prostitute.”
The man’s eyes twitched but he did not show agitation.
The bright gold eyes that look just like the sun has been hidden between his black pupils. Without this ability, the duke would still be at the bottom.
“This is true but I also have a sense of pride.”
The man’s golden eyes flashed viciously. It was the detachment peculiar to those who had experienced all the filthiness of the world.
It was dark and it was dangerous and had a dizzying color.
The man raised the corners of his lips. The Empress’s eyes were trembling.
Even if the man was still, his presence was enormous. With a sharp force, the Empress unknowingly grabbed the hem of her skirt.
Because of this, the man smiled.
“I don’t think it’s good for families to fight like this.”
Just in time, a maid came and whispered to the Empress. Another Ginger murder case in the capital has occurred.
“That was all?”
The Empress turned white and disappeared, leaving the man alone.
“There was a rat.” The man said suddenly.
The man strode forward in the bush where Yvonne was hiding.
Yvonne came forward and stood there white and helpless, patting the back of her dress.
The man snorted at the sight.
He picked up the books that Yvonne had dropped on the floor. Loan cards came fluttering down that were stuck between the books.
The man picks up the loan card and looks at the name written on it and read…
“Yvonne Moore.”
Yvonne sighed and swallowed her breath. She was so white that her complexion couldn’t be paler.
“Moore… Yvonne Moore…”
“Si-Sir…”
She felt like she was going to die of suffocation. No, she’s scared and not sure what to do. She was numb. She can only think of Paradis.
Undoubtedly, the man in front of him was Kiryan Hishleger, the villain of “The End of Abyss”, who was responsible for destroying this world.
He was also the one who killed Yvonne Moore in the original novel world that Diana told.
“You know me… No, you have no choice but to know.”
“The Emperor’s nephew, son of Archduke Hishleger”. There is only one person in the Empire who fits these words.
Yvonne shook her head violently at the appearance of the villain she had not cared about since she was fourteen. Her tears rolled around the tip of her nose.
The time has come.
Kiryan didn’t care about Yvonne’s reaction.
There are few who do not feel fear in front of him.
“…I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.” Yvonne struggled.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Although Kiryan maintained his calm old attitude and tone, Kiryan was very angry to the top of his head.
If they’re not in the imperial palace but a back alley or his house, he would have killed Yvonne Moore right away.
The Empress left and insulted him for being the son of a prostitute.
He’s pride was hurt by the words that didn’t make sense and he was caught by an unknown person.
Kiryan felt terrible shame and aimed his hatred towards Yvonne.
“Did you come here through the rose garden?”
“I got lost…” Yvonne answered, her mind running.
“For something like that, you’re just casually eavesdropping.”
“I’m sorry!”
Hic!
Yvonne, who was sobbing, got startled and hiccuped.
According to Diana’s diary, Kiryan Hishleger, the original villain, was proud of himself and had a very short temper.
Selena didn’t fall for his second courtship and instead chose his cousin the Crown Prince.
And when he wasn’t chosen, he killed the Crown Prince and built up his pride.
For Yvonne, who is not a person with strong self-esteem, that part was impressive. So she remembered the part, even though it had been a while since she had read the diary.
“Paradis…help me…”
Paradis was Yvonne’s only family in a world without Diana.

Every day they quarreled, but he was like Yvonne’s twin brother. So, in difficult moments, Paradis came to her mind first.
“Oh, what I heard today is something I haven’t heard forever!” as Kiryan’s eyebrows narrowed, Yvonne’s voice became more silent.
Kiryan thought that he would pretend he didn’t hear Yvonne’s wails, but his pride was hurt.
Of course, he’ll get more and more furious if he just goes around and kills Yvonne in the most painful way.
And so, he’s now talking to her.
