DIANA VIOLA EHRENVERE'S EXECUTION SHALL NOW BE CARRIED OUT!!! DIE! DIE, YOU WITCH!!!! YOU'RE A DISGRACE TO THE EHRENVERE NAME!! THE DUCHY OF EHRENVERE. FOUNDING CONTRIBUTORS WHO STOOD BY THE KINGDOM'S INCEPTION, AND A PILLAR OF THE NATION THAT ACCUMULATED VAST WEALTH THROUGH BRILLIANT BUSINESS SKILL. AS THE ONLY DAUGHTER OF THAT EHRENVERE FAMILY, I LIVED MY ENTIRE LIFE WITHOUT A SINGLE WORRY. THE ONLY SHADOW WAS LOSING MY PARENTS AT THE AGE OF TWELVE, BUT MY UNCLE, COUNT COLCOS, STEPPED UP TO BE MY GUARDIAN. LATER, THANKS TO COUNT COLCOS'S INTRODUCTION, I WAS EVEN PROMISED IN MARRIAGE TO THE FIRST PRINCE, DAYSON. I THOUGHT MY LIFE WOULD REMAIN BEAUTIFUL EVEN AFTER THE WEDDING, JUST AS IT HAD ALWAYS BEEN, BUT- I NEVER LOVED YOU, NOT EVEN FOR A SECOND. I ONLY NEEDED YOUR POWER AND MONEY TO ASCEND THE THRONE. HOW COULD YOU TWO DO THIS TO ME?! BELLA, IT WAS YOUR FATHER, UNCLE COLCOS, WHO INTRODUCED ME TO DAYSON! IF HE FINDS OUT ABOUT THIS, THERE'S NO WAY HE'D JUST SIT BACK AND-! WHAT ARE YOU BABBLING ABOUT? YOU STUPID GIRL. MY DAD WAS THE ONE WHO PLANNED ALL OF THIS FROM THE VERY START. ...WHAT? IT WAS ALL PLANNED? FROM THE BEGINNING, THE PLAN WAS TO TAKE EVERYTHING FROM YOU. YOU'VE OUTLIVED YOUR USEFULNESS NOW, YOU IDIOT. SO... DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! THE EXECUTION BEGINS NOW. IF ANYONE QUESTIONS THE DEATH OF THIS SINNER, RAISE YOUR HAND! EVEN FOR A RUSHED EXECUTION LIKE THIS— I GUESS THEY CAN'T SKIP THE PROCEDURE FOR RAISING OBJECTIONS. AN ANCIENT LEGEND PASSED DOWN IN THE KINGDOM: "IF THREE OR MORE PEOPLE DOUBT THE DEATH, THAT SOUL SHALL BE SAVED." I ALWAYS THOUGHT LEGENDS WERE ONLY FOR FOOLS TO BELIEVE IN... I GUESS I'M A FOOL. BECAUSE I'M DESPERATELY HOPING SOMEONE WILL STEP FORWARD FOR ME... PLEASE, I'M BEGGING YOU... ANYONE WILL DO... ANYONE AT ALL, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND FOR ME... I DON'T WANT TO DIE LIKE THIS... STOP!!! I SAID STOP!!!! OUR LADY WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING!!! JANICE...! I ALSO CANNOT ACCEPT DIANA'S DEATH! AUNT CHO...?! MY MOTHER'S RELATIVE, WHOM I NEVER EVEN GOT TO SPEAK WITH PROPERLY...! EVEN AUNT CHO STEPPED FORWARD... ONE MORE...! IF JUST ONE MORE PERSON OBJECTS...! A MIRACLE MIGHT ACTUALLY HAPPEN...! SINCE THERE ARE NOT THREE WHO OBJECT TO THE DEATH— PROCEED WITH THE SINNER'S EXECUTION! SO... THIS IS HOW IT ENDS. I CONDEMN YOU IN THE NAME OF HIS MAJESTY KING KARMAN OF PETRORA! SINNER, RECEIVE YOUR PUNISHMENT! WAIT. EVERYONE'S BEING FAR TOO IMPATIENT. NO WAY... I'VE COME TO REPAY MY DEBT. DIANA. YOU WERE ALIVE... PRINCE CASSION. YES, AND IT'S ALL THANKS TO YOU. ALL I DID WAS TOSS YOU A POUCH OF JEWELS WHEN YOU WERE FLEEING, YOUR HIGHNESS. AND I'M ALIVE TODAY BECAUSE OF THE HELP YOU GAVE ME THEN. I'M GLAD I MADE IT BACK IN TIME. IN TIME? NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, YOUR HIGHNESS, YOU CAN'T OVERTURN AN EXECUTION NOW— I, CASSION LICHTE PETRORA, OBJECT TO THE DEATH OF DIANA EHRENVERE! IF IT'S PRINCE CASSION, HE'S THAT ONE, RIGHT...?! THAT'S RIGHT, THE PRINCE WHO WAS SAID TO HAVE DIED OF ILLNESS AS A CHILD. I DEMAND THE EXECUTION BE HALTED AND THE CASE REINVES- TIGATED! THAT MAKES THREE... THINGS MIGHT ACTUALLY CHANGE...! PROCEED WITH THE EXECUTION. YES! AS I THOUGHT, A LEGEND IS JUST A LEGEND. STILL... THANK YOU, JANICE, AUNT CHO. AND... PRINCE CASSION. I'M HAPPY TO KNOW THERE WERE PEOPLE WHO CARED FOR ME. NO, IT'S TOO EARLY TO GIVE UP. I WANT YOU TO LIVE. IS THIS... A MAGIC MESSAGE? PRINCE CASSION WAS A MAGE? I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING... TO THINK PRINCE CASSION WAS ALIVE AND A MAGE... I ONLY REMEMBER GIVING HIM A SMALL BIT OF HELP, SO WHY IS HE TRYING TO SAVE ME...? PRINCE CASSION IS... CASSION! CASSION? WHICH NOVEL IS CASSION THE PROTAGONIST OF THIS TIME, MY LADY? HUH? THIS VOICE... I TOLD YOU NOT TO READ NOVELS BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP. NOW, COME HERE. I'LL BRUSH YOUR HAIR. TODAY IS AN IMPORTANT DAY, AFTER ALL.... OH. MY LADY? WH-WHAT'S WRONG ALL OF A SUDDEN? IT'S REAL. A MIRACLE REALLY HAPPENED! ## See also - [WebtoonLib — I bought the villains with money #1](/series/i-bought-the-villains-with-money-8vputcbm/chapter-1-iqixqx) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/i-bought-the-villains-with-money-8vputcbm ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
