How to Be a Dark Hero’s Daughter

‘But come to think of it, Collen is a bad person according to some standards, right?’

If I were to be loved by Collen – of course, as a family member – wouldn’t that also be true?

“Then are there no good men at all?”

“If you manage to catch one, you could put him on a leash. With exceptional talent and intelligence, continue to grow strong and smart. Then you won’t have to bow down to the beasts that surround you. It seems like you’ll have an interesting future. Hm, I’d like to follow you and watch it.”

“You can do as you please, but…”

I felt a sinking feeling for some reason. It sucked me dry…

“And you, I’m talking about you.”

The goddess raised her hand and pointed at me.

“You will have a very, very painful, worst first love ever. But in the end, you’ll be able to have everything you want, so don’t worry. You have eyes that can see the truth.”

Thump. My heart skipped a beat unpleasantly. Without realizing it, I frowned slightly.

“By any chance, is one of the people I know right now is the object of my first love?”

The goddess didn’t deny it. That made me even more anxious. First love? Who on earth could it be?

‘I should be good at mind control.’

Love is forbidden. I should worry about my future. Thinking that way, I gradually calmed down. It was a little worrying, but…

‘It’s not like I’ll die without a man, right?’

I could have heard an even worse prophecy.

‘Like dying suddenly or having deteriorating health.’

I looked at Whiana and asked:

“Is this the end?”

“Do you want to hear more prophecies?”

“No!”

When a prophecy about my love life goes haywire like this, it’s scary to ask about anything else.

“Well, that’s what is Heiman ability…”

“The question is over. I’ll only give you a prophecy.”

Finally, I asked once more, but the goddess cut me off firmly.

Is the Goddess of Spring capricious? I heard that she appears most beautifully and then disappears in an instant.

I gave up and nodded my head. Instead, I asked something else.

“Um, Goddess. Is Marianne really safe?”

She chuckled.

“Why? Are you worried?”

I nodded my head quietly.

“The Saintess is a precious existence to me as well. I choose a beautiful child with magical powers to become my child. I like children with cute souls.”

Whiana had a funny look on her face.

“Well, open the door and bring the infatuated one waiting in front of you before I start wanting you too.”

The infatuated one? Not ones? Whiana looked at my expression and said:

“And deliver this message to the runaway one. ‘Well, you can’t escape your fate of becoming a king.’ If it’s you, you have enough qualification to deliver my prophecy.”

I feel like I just heard an incredible prophecy. What do you call this?

‘Isn’t this a heavenly leak?’

I nodded. When I opened the door, I saw Melissa, who looked nervous and trembling.

“You don’t need to look closely. Your life will change today and continue as it is.”

“Yes, yes?”

I saw Melissa sit down and start sobbing, and that was the last sight I had.

Creak. The door closed again.

“Did you hear the prophecy well?”

In the hallway on my way back, I was startled to encounter Cedric.

“Did you escape well?”

“Yes, thanks to you.”

“But why are you here instead of running away?”

Could it be that I was the one he was waiting for? No way. A foreboding feeling slowly crept in.

From now on, I decided to be cautious with men. After all, even the men certified by the goddess turn out to be a failure.

‘Although he’s still young, he’s more like a kid than a man.’

Cedric said.

“There seems to be a problem between the princess and the countess, so as a member of the royal family, I should mediate in between.”

Hmm, Rose and Melissa were from the Count’s family.

“Oh, Melissa tried to steal the prophecy, right? It seems like Rose instigated her, so she’s a bit pitiful.”

“Even if she’s pitiful, in this world, one mistake can erase the future. It’s the fault of the family that didn’t teach her that.”

I looked at Cedric with surprised eyes. The world Cedric was talking about must be the noble society.

“That aside, did you hear any prophecies that you liked?”

“Well… A few things that I’ve always been curious about were partially revealed.”

The illusion I saw with my eyes open. The ability of this world called Heiman to see through Collen.

‘It had nothing to do with my previous life.’

It was quite shocking.

“And I’ve also made future plans.”

“Future plans?”

“We talked about marriage earlier. Like a strategic marriage.”

Cedric nodded his head. I smiled.

“I don’t want to get married when I grow up!”

“What?”

Cedric’s pupils trembled.

“I won’t have first love, dating, or arranged marriage! I can have a fun life without doing those things when I grow up.”

Why is he so shocked? And I have to deliver the prophecy too. Ah, it must be related to the throne. I have to deliver it very carefully.

“Prince, can you lend me your ear for a moment?”

Cedric had a puzzled expression, not understanding what I said. I looked around and brought my lips close to Cedric’s ear.

“The Goddess has a message for you.”

Cedric heard those words and had a strange expression.

“I see.”

The smile disappeared from his angelic face.
