**Elizabeth's POV***I looked at the crowd of onlookers. None of them felt that these doctors were behaving abnormally. It was as if I was the one who was behaving abnormally in their eyes."You're all crazy! Damn it!" I cursed and prepared to run away, but a doctor grabbed my arm firmly."You can't leave!""Let go of me!"I kicked the doctor. He let out a scream and then fell to the ground spitting blood.The scene scared everyone, including me. I swear I didn't kick him with a lot of force."Call the guards! Call the guards! There's been a murder!" The crowd of onlookers screamed."No, no," I explained in a panic, "I didn't mean to hurt him! I didn't try to kill him!"I tried to crouch down to check on the injured doctor, but the other doctors shouted at me with their weapons, "Stay away! Don't come near him! You murderer!"Oh, my Moon Goddess, what the fuck is going on here? I was suddenly treated like a murderer. I didn't expect these dwarf wolves to be so weak.Soon, a group of
**Julian's POV***But in any case, Elizabeth saved my life. I could only blame her internally without actually punishing her.I ran away from her when she wasn't looking, as we entered the town.I took a hot bath after returning to the palace and then slept in a soft velvet-covered bed. Finally, I forgot about the bad feeling I had in the cave.The only regret was that my scepter still stank.I couldn't help but wonder what Elizabeth was doing now.She would have learned the truth from the townspeople by now. She would have figured out that I wasn't the young boy she thought I was, but an adult.Maybe she had guessed that Jo's name was fake too.But it doesn't matter. We won't see each other again for a long time. She won't know that the person she saved is the most honored king in the forbidden valley.Well, I will not shortchange her. The generous reward I promised to give her will be paid.I summoned my most trusted Beta."Give you an important secret mission," I said.My Beta kne
**Elizabeth's POV***I closed my eyes in despair as I saw the men throwing the torches they held toward my feet.A tear crossed my cheek.But soon, there were countless raindrops falling on my face and head, so many that I knew clearly that they could not be my tears.I opened my eyes and saw a large dark cloud gathering over my head. Countless drops of rain fell from the dark clouds and doused the flames at my feet.It was...so bizarre. It seemed to be raining only above me, while everywhere else was clear.Was the moon goddess helping me?"You can't burn her!"A familiar voice came from far to near. Everyone looked over in the direction the voice came from, including me.A magnificent golden vehicle slowly drove into the crowd.Who is the coming person? Was the appearance of the rain that saved my life a coincidence, or was it related to the person sitting in the vehicle?The door of the vehicle opened, and a hand holding a scepter appeared in the view of all.On top of the scepter
**Elizabeth's POV***But Jo seemed to see my confusion. He put a finger to my lips and signaled for me not to speak.Then he turned and blocked me with his body."Can I take my wife away now?""Of course, you can! Please!" The voices of several elders were trembling with fear. They knelt with their heads on the ground, not daring to lift them up at all.I got into the king's gold-made vehicle with the help of maids. This was my first experience with this kind of transportation unique to the forbidden valley. But I was not in the mood to experience it carefully. I was still in shock over what had just happened."Are you...the king?" I asked in a whisper.Jo sat next to me, and instead of answering my question, he raised his index finger to his lips once again, signaling me to be quiet.I gulped and stopped talking. But my heart was beating loudly, filling the entire space in the vehicle. I think Jo should have heard it.The vehicle was a little small for me, and the inevitable touch o
**Elizabeth's POV***"You mean they gave birth to babies covered in fire again? Or that babies covered in fire tore open their bellies and crawled out?" The more I thought about it, the more terrified I felt, and I couldn't help but reach up and touch my stomach.If the curse is true, will my child be born in such a way?"You guessed it right. And any abortifacient drugs won't work on those fetuses. Moreover, something even worse has happened, making the residents of the valley determined that they must kill these monsters covered in fire.""What happened...?""Those flame-covered babies escaped after they were born, and no one knew where they went. But, about a hundred years ago, they reappeared. And. They grew up.""They became big, grown-up, flame-covered monsters. They used to come into the town to kill and rob some young girls. They became a nightmare for everyone.""Holy crap," I covered my mouth. Now I understood why they were so scared. The carnage that could happen at any mo
**Elizabeth's POV***Above is the grassland, and below is the valley.The grassland and the valley are like two different worlds. If the grassland is a utopia full of happiness, then the valley is a hell full of despair.Everything is upside down.When I was in the grassland, I was the smallest creature in the whole grassland. Everything is too big for me. When I am in the valley, I am the largest creature in the entire valley, and everything is too small for me.Several servants put five beds together to make a bed suitable for me to sleep in.The house is also very short, and I have to lower my head a lot, or I will hit the roof.I am like a giant living here.Do I really have to attend the Queen's ceremony? I'll look more like King Julian's sister or his mother when I stand next to him, right?Forget it, it doesn't matter. Everything is fake anyway. It was all about keeping my baby.Once again, I put my hand on my belly.I'm afraid I'll only know if the baby's father is Isidore or
**Elizabeth's POV***The door opened, and a dozen servants came in carrying a huge bed."Why are they..." I was surprised."The king and queen should be sleeping in the same room." Julian gave me a hint with his eyes. I immediately shut my mouth.Seeing the servants remove the king's old bed and replace it with a new one, my heart began to beat faster.Did this mean that I would have to sleep with Julian in the same bed in the future?I didn't mind sleeping with him in the cave because I thought he was just a young boy unconscious from his injuries. But now that I know he's an adult...It was so awkward."Don't put on a reluctant face. I'm quite well-behaved when I sleep. I don't snore, grind my teeth, sleepwalk, talk in my sleep, and I definitely won't touch you or your belly.""I won't either," I said.Thankfully, the bed was big enough that we slept in the same bed without touching each other's hands or feet at all. We had a quiet night.The days went by.My belly got bigger, whil
**Julian's POV***For the next half of the month, Elizabeth did not set out to make the flying machine she described that day, but proceeded to learn to make other items under the tutelage of her teacher.I prefer to call them toys. For example, some wind-up ducks that walk on their own and wooden bears that make roaring sounds.However, Elizabeth seemed to enjoy being creative. She showed me her little inventions sometimes, such as some wind-up bears that walk on two feet, and wooden ducks that make roaring noises.Well, that's kind of interesting. It's just something for women and children to pass the time.I never expected that Elizabeth would give me another big surprise half a month later.At night, when I pushed open the door to my room, something flew out of the room and hit me in the forehead.It almost knocked off my crown. I was about to lash out when I heard Elizabeth's gasp."Oh, I'm so sorry, Julian, I tried to make it stop, but failed. It doesn't let me control it very
