「Morgana wanted a seat that no one could covet.

 

Since Morgana was unable to pull the sword, she was left with no other choice, but to the capricious act of defeating the sword-bearer instead.

 

Those who saw Morgana spoke in unison that she has a beauty that attracts the people around her.

 

As she had the power of the Fay family behind and mastered medicine, those who saw her for the first time had no choice but to fall for her.」

 

Even Duke Fay was unable to fully inherit such power.

 

With such power manifesting in an illegitimate child, it wouldn’t have been easy to ignore it.

 

Even if such power might appear in the future, now was the time when Fay needed that power desperately.

 

The oracle predicted that a daughter from Britain’s royal lineage was destined to marry the master of the sword.

 

In the midst of this, the guardian of the lake family’s power to protect the sword faded, so opinions were divided among Avalon over the existence of the Duke of Fay.

 

“Doesn’t this mean Britain will swallow Avalon and unify the continent?”

 

“The timing is significant. Especially since the descendants of the lake fairy family have lost their power.”

 

“Certainly… Princess Guinevere and Fay were the same age, but if their powers were cut in that generation…”

 

In fact, it was nothing more than treating a dying family in a ruined kingdom.

 

‘Duke Fay must also have a headache.’

 

⚔︎

 

Morgause, who was in front of her, showed displeasure after seeing Morgana’s power.

 

“I heard you asked our father to take you to the king’s succession ceremony. I can’t believe an illegitimate child would go with the family name. Are you out of your mind?” (Morgause)

 

At the words of the succession ceremony, Morgana swept over her chest out of relief.

 

‘Thank goodness! The original work hasn’t started yet!’

 

Upon Morgana’s unexpected appearance at the succession ceremony, the noble of Avalon began to argue.

 

They would have lost both Excalibur and their ability to heal if there had been anyone else in Britain with the Fay power.

 

The nobles of Avalon were only thinking of using the illegitimate child as a shield. As if power was the only reason for Morgana’s existence.

 

Duke Fay also actively participated in this action. He believed that it was the only method that would save Avalon and Fay from collapsing.

 

But it only aroused Morgana’s craving for power, as she was despised for being an illegitimate child.

 

She eventually joined hands with Kelive the king of Avalon, the ultimate villain of the novel.

 

Meeting him at the succession ceremony, Morgana made a suggestion.

 

‘I will infiltrate Britain and steal Excalibur. So give me power instead.’

 

Avalon was not on good terms with Britain, who always faced the border.

 

Although no dispute arose due to the sword lake blocking the two kingdoms, Kelive wanted to destroy the Excalibur if he was not the one who was going to draw that sword.

 

There was one reason, because of the oracle, that the person with the sword would unify the continent.

 

In the original, Morgana did not miss this. ‘The Queen of Avalon who will unify the continent, I want that, give me that seat.’

 

After meeting Kelive, Morgana moved to Britain.

 

The original story began as she helped Avalon’s assassins, who became the maid of the Guinevere as planned.

 

Later, when the hero Arthur draws the sword and enters the royal court to marry her, Morgana jumps with the sword.

 

Morgana immediately passed the sword into Kelive’s hand, but what’s the essence of having a hero?

 

Avalon, who was still looking over Britain, triggered the war. The male lead led the victory in the land of Avalon, and recovered Excalibur.

 

‘And with that sword, didn’t he cut my throat…?!’

 

Argh! I can’t die like that! No, not even if I die someday!

 

Thank God!

 

Thank you for not sending me to this body after the original Morgana went to the succession and plotted with the final villain!

 

I would have been more grateful if you had sent me to another body who will live a long life, instead of Morgana.

 

Contrary to her innermost thoughts, Morgana responded calmly to Morgause, who was still glaring at her.

 

“What’s wrong with attending the succession?”

 

“How dare you! A dirty commoner without a Castle. You can’t even use honorifics?!”

 

“I’m sorry, Sister. I don’t know how to use honorifics because I haven’t learned them.”

 

I thought she would be angry, but when I gently answered, Morgause seemed perplexed.

 

“Well, yes, if you know your position now…”

 

“I’m also part of the Fay family, I have powers but without my older sister. Why don’t you go to the succession ceremony instead?”

 

“You didn’t learn them because the only thing working in you is your mouth!”

 

Morgause raised her hand again, but Morgana naturally avoided it.

 

Actually, I don’t even want to go. There’s no need for me to attend since I won’t make a deal with that villain.

 

Why would I risk my neck from stealing Excalibur for no reason? Eventually, Avalon and Britain will go to war one day.

 

I know which country will win, and I have no intention of living in a beggar-like family.

 

But as long I have the Fay family’s power, the Duke won’t let me go easily.

 

‘For now, I’ll pretend to be attending that succession ceremony and run to Britain when I receive the money.’

 

If I stayed in Avalon, won’t my power be used until I die? Just thinking about it made me shudder.

 

‘Now, I don’t want to be taken advantage of.’

 

The child who had given all to her mother and longed for affection is now dead.

 

I didn’t want to do anything stupid twice. Money was everything in the world.

 

The money wouldn’t betray me, and it could buy someone’s favor.

 

Such was the world I had been through in my previous life.

 

Morgana intended to go to Britain and earn money working as a maid.

 

In the original story, when the continents were unified, all members of the Avalon family, including Fay, were annihilated. So was Morgana.

 

So this time, I will become the maid of honor like in the original, but l I will save the princess and gain her trust.

 

‘Later, when the hero punishes the people from Avalon, I might save myself if I gain the heroine’s trust.’

 

So if I survive the war like that, I’ll save money and buy a decent mansion in Britain. I want to live comfortably for the rest of my life.

 

Morgana spoke with conviction, “I’m going to the succession ceremony.”

 

All I could say was that I was going straight to Britain, throwing everything away. That’s what I was going to do…

 

⚔︎

 

An office several times larger than the room Morgana was locked in.

 

On the antique wooden desk, the pens and papers lined up in rows stood out in particular.

 

The man sitting at the huge desk stared sharply at Morgana. With silver hair and purplish eyes that resembled Morgana.

 

The man’s face didn’t hide a hint of his annoyance toward the uninvited audience.

 

Morgana’s memory, naturally led her to realize that he was her father, the Duke of Freddie Le Fay.

 

For a person with three daughters, he looked quite distant.

 

‘So that’s why Morgana is like this. The power of genes really is…’

 

By that time, the silence was prolonged. The Duke’s tightly closed mouth finally opened.

 

“I told you to stay quiet, but you caused another disturbance.”

 

Morgana stared at the seal of the Fay family hanging in front of the window.

 

Can you call this a fuss? This is a one-sided story.

 

Morgause was the one who came first and slapped me, and she was the one who came to visit me without my knowledge.

 

Morgana glanced back at her memories for a moment.

 

Not too long ago, Morgana was making all kinds of threats to the Duke to take her to the succession ceremony.

 

She was voicing her opinion, even pouring wine over Morgause’s face. It was nothing short of a protest group.

 

In this situation, she must have been confident that there would be no problem even if she came casually and slap her.

 

Somehow, I wondered why the poison had risen so much. Is that all?

 

Relatively, Morgana was caught trying to set fire to Elaine’s dress room, and threatened to poison the tea of Duke Fay and won’t detoxify him.

 

Morgana couldn’t speak, and could only hide her head in embarrassment.

 

‘… She’s worse than the book!’

 

The Duke of Fay seemed to have confined Morgana in a room as the next best move because he couldn’t kill her because of her power.

 

At this point, it was a miracle that they still give her food to eat consistently.

 

‘That’s crazy. Even if it’s me, I’ll also lock you up.’

 

Duke Fay also inherited the blood of the family.

 

Not quite as powerful as Morgana, but he also had a slight healing power.

 

Morgana in the original story seemed unimaginable to anyone who could decipher it.

 

‘Hey, Morgana didn’t grow up in Avalon. It hasn’t been long since she met the Duke of Fay.’

 

Morgana’s mother, of British descent, had an eye for Duke Fay and gave birth to Morgana’s while going to a lake festival.

 

Thanks to this, Morgana was also a citizen of the Kingdom of Britain until a few months ago.

 

If her mother hadn’t died in an accident, Morgana probably wouldn’t have come to pay in her lifetime.

 

Anyway, Morgana in the original seemed to have expected it as she came to Avalon.

 

‘Cause he’s still my father…?

 

How could Morgana have thought that her father would come out like that only to gain her power?

 

❥ In Arthurian Legend, Morgana’s father is Gorlois, and her mother is Igraine who later married Uther Pendragon of Britain, father of King Arthur, so in this legend they are half-siblings. But the Author of course had its own story.
