Summary
Helia Bailey was born with an extraordinary gift: the power to discern pure good from insidious evil. Her life, once bathed in the favor of her grandfather, King Alphon, the unwavering oath of her childhood friend, Knight Levain, and the devotion of her maid, Ellie, seemed destined for light. But with the king’s sudden death, a chilling darkness descended upon the kingdom, corrupting Ellie and threatening everything Helia held dear.
To shield those she cherished from this encroaching evil, Helia made an agonizing choice: to embrace the very darkness she was born to fight. She deliberately cultivated a reputation as “the most evil woman of all time,” a figure of unparalleled arrogance and greed, sacrificing her own name and happiness. Unaware of her true, selfless motives, Levain, the knight who swore to protect her, broke his oath, leaving Helia utterly alone. Yet, even stripped of everything, her resolve remains unbroken. For if the truth were revealed, the great evil would turn its gaze upon Levain.
“I will protect the light that is you,” she vows, “even if my world must sink into eternal darkness.” Dive into Helia’s epic tale of sacrifice, misunderstanding, and unwavering love. Read chapter 1 now and uncover the truth behind the kingdom’s most infamous villainess!
