“Fall for me in the same way I loved you, so you can feel the pain and despair you put me through, before I take your life.” ~--~ Sylvia’s world revolved around her husband, Duke Alec Winston. For a lifetime, she gave him everything despite his infidelity. But in the end, when she wasn’t necessary for his plans, he plunged a sword through her flesh without a single parting word. That should’ve been the end. Yet Sylvia finds herself regressed, back to her ten-year-old self living in the slums of the Rezine Empire. With the lingering sting of betrayal in her heart and the memory of dying imprinted in her mind, she decides to eliminate the source of her misfortune while atoning for her past life’s sins. Even if it means going against known and hidden powers within the empire. To start, she needs allies worth their salt and the backing of her family, the duchy of House Lundren. But despite her knowledge of the future and a lifetime’s worth of experience, Sylvia soon realizes that she knew so little. For there are secrets she’s yet to discover, stories she’s yet to hear, and prices yet to be paid. After all, a human living past death over and over is nothing short of an anomaly, and a power that can grant it won’t come for free. Death wasn’t the end. For Sylvia, it was the beginning. And a curse.

Chapter 01 The Wife and the Mistress
Sylvia hugged her knees to shield herself from the cold winds swirling in the moldy cell. A patch of decaying straw laid between her freezing body and the grimy stone floor that appeared to have never seen sunlight.The underground prison carried the stench of sweat and piss, and these scents were starting to cause a headache.Her pale, tear-stained face grimaced, despair clawing at her heart but she had to hold on until the trial in order to clear her name.“I’m innocent,” she mumbled as she splayed a hand over her lower belly.The reply came in the form of an echo—heels clacking against the floor—getting louder by the second.“What a terribly lovely sight,” said the newcomer in a mocking tone, her voice tainted with shrill delight.It was Lady Clementine, the woman who seduced her husband, the patriarch of House Winston, Duke Alec Winston.A guard who had accompanied her held a torch and positioned himself near the walls further behind.“Ho-ho-ho,” she laughed haughtily, the back of

Chapter 02 The Wife and the Bastard
Sylvia’s labored breaths disturbed the stillness of the dungeon.Her cold body trembled not from the chilling wind blowing from the barred window above her head but from Lady Clementine’s revelation.‘I killed them,’ she thought, and the guilt was more painful than all the years she’d endured as the duke’s wife.Was it a sin to love?Was it greedy to ask for reciprocation?Sylvia had always justified her actions through her love for the duke.“I must protect him,” she told herself as blood stained her hands.And the ones who were after her life and his … were the now deceased brothers of House Lundren.Once an outstanding founding house of the Reze Empire and one of its two ducal houses, through the machinations of House Winston, they were charged with treason.But they attempted to assassinate Sylvia, the Duchess of House Winston, hence, why Duke Alec placed justice upon them.He’d made Sylvia avenge herself.And she did.Surprisingly, every single one accepted their fates in her hand

Chapter 03 The Betrayal
The two passed by empty cells, hurrying along as if they were being chased.A sickening stench coated the walls and stuck to her skin the further they went.All Sylvia could do was breathe it in as she watched Lord Marcus’ back from behind, the warmth emanating from their tightly held hands proof that she had implicitly trusted him with two lives.“I love you,” he had confessed that night as he took her body gently like a lover and roughly like a beast.As they ran, Sylvia wondered what her life would’ve been like if she, too, was loved. With all the revelations she’d received tonight, it seemed like she had never received it for herself for all the years she’d lived.She loved and loved true and lost herself in the process. And now, the person she gave it all to wanted her death.Sylvia couldn’t tell if the ache in her chest came from her running or from something else. She felt pity for herself, and for the man in front of her.She had no more love to spare even as he was risking his

Chapter 04 The Regression
Bang! Bang! Bang!Sylvia jolted awake in the early hours of the morning, panting like she had been running.The door slammed open, and light from a single candle spilled onto the unorganized boxes and tall shelves around her.A short, thin man walked in; his many years were marred on his face.His crooked back made him look even shorter, and the garments he wore were old and patched in various parts.“Sleeping in, eh?” Shote said in a hoarse voice.He coughed aloud as if his lungs would spill out of his mouth at any second.“You look as pale as a sheet there, girl. He-he-he. Had a nightmare, did ya?”Sylvia blinked in response. Cold sweat had wet her neck and back.The storage room smelled of mold, spices, and dust.“Hmph. I’ll let you off the hook today, but I better not catch ya slacking!”With that warning, the old man turned and left, slamming the door behind him.Sylvia chuckled, still disoriented from what Shote called a nightmare.The entire experience felt too real to be made-u

Chapter 05 Bullies and Mercenaries
The three boys had the same unruly brown hair and eyes as brown as mud. They were a few years older than her, but they were taller than most boys around their age. They also packed a bit of muscle from working in the mines.It seemed like they grew a little bigger each time she saw them. They were away for most days of the month, but these well-known troublemakers picked on anyone weaker than them.“Hey, that was dangerous, shorty. I’m walking here, see?” the oldest of the three, Uno, said smugly.Sylvia looked down at the spilled water.When House Winston took her in, servants cooked her meals and served them on time.Now, her meals depended on Shote. And Shote wouldn’t let her eat breakfast until she finished the first half of her morning chores—fetching water for the day and scrubbing the floors until they glistened.She glared at the triplets, making them scowl.“Wha-What are you loo-looking at?” Dos shouted.His speaking had improved over the years, and Sylvia would sincerely cong

Chapter 06 Monsters
“Mmmh.”Sylvia tried her best to hold it in. But the pain that shot up from her leg to her hips was too much to grit her teeth through.“A-a-a-h-h-h!”Her scream rang out. She sat on the ground, back stretched, with both hands compressing her throbbing left foot.“It-it hurts.”“Dummy.”“I know,” she whined. “That was dumb.”‘Ugh. I can’t believe I hurt myself because of her.’‘My pride can’t take this.’‘I’ll make you pay. Just you wait. One day, you’ll regret making me do this.’Sylvia slowly pulled her back straight, dragging her injured foot to cross over her right thigh. She turned her neck to look at the approaching group of semi-reliable adults.“Why would you inflict pain upon yourself, little sister?”The giant man crouched near her, then effortlessly lowered his friend. He made him sit up with his back against the well.Sylvia noticed his shoulders shake, which made her cheeks flush from embarrassment.“Don’t laugh at me, damned old man!”Smack!“Ah!”Sylvia was forcibly bent

Chapter 07 Between Past and Present
If there was one thing that Sylvia could freely do in her current situation, it was to be crude. Unlike when she was a duchess, survival came before etiquette, grace, and vanity.This is to say that Sylvia, having been brought back in time, could curse all she wanted.“Damned old man.”Sylvia’s knees buckled underneath her.“Short ol’ Shorte who stinks of tobacco.”Unfortunately, Sylvia couldn’t reclaim her days of rough-lived youth after having lived a noble’s life.She sighed as she gave up and lay on the earthen floor.Shote had indeed tried every trick he could to make Arden pay more than he should. Of course, when the man insisted on paying the fair price the Sylvia tipped him off earlier, Shote took his losses out on her by working her to the bone.‘I remember my first life, but changes keep happening.’From what she could recall, Shote made her work less because he was happy that she had led the mercenaries to the inn.Sylvia now understood why. Since she had helped Arden, it wa

Chapter 08 A Deal with No Losers
“I’ve come to serve dinner for our dear customers.”“It doesn’t seem enough.”“I’ll bring the other up right away.”After leaving the tray in Arden’s capable hands, Sylvia went back down for the second tray and promptly returned.“Come on in.”The mercenaries had washed up and appeared more themselves.They were sat around the table, the fully parted windows behind them allowing a full view of the courtyard and the run-down buildings beyond, bathed in darkness and candlelight.“Hello,” she greeted as she made quick work of serving their meals and drinks. “I hope the meal is to your liking.”“We’ve been looking forward to a warm meal. Thank you for the hospitality, little sister,” Arden said with that same unreadable smile on his face.“No, no. This much is expected. We appreciate the customers’ patronage.”“Is your foot doing well?”Sylvia’s cheek twitched.“It hurts when I walk wrong.”Arden led her to sit on the foot a bed.“Take off your boot. I’ll inspect the injury.”From his pock

Chapter 09 The Mercy Mercenaries
“What an interesting child,” Livia commented after Sylvia had left the room with the trays.“The little sister was a noble. If it were any other nobles, I’d have a bounty on my head right now for touching a noble’s body.” Arden chuckled.“Indeed. Though you applied first aid, you’ll be kicked to the curb and cursed at.”Livia turned to Grus.“Are you sure about this, Captain—getting involved with nobility?”The single candle they left on the center of the table casted shadows on their captain’s face, his conflicted expression appearing more serious.“It won’t hurt to have them owe us a favor,” he replied, but there was a trace of uncertainty in his tone. “If House Lundren’s reputation bears no falsehood and the same is with her words, we might be able to save more lives in this mission rather than if it were just us.”Arden hummed.“That is certainly a possibility. On that note, Captain, Hanes is taking longer than usual tonight.”“Shush,” Livia whispered, eyes darting towards the now

Chapter 10 Pricey Help
Rain sprayed into the room through the half-open door, wetting the boxes of supplies.Sylvia stood before a young boy about the age of ten, who was lying on the ground soaked in rain and bleeding out a puddle of red. His blonde hair glinted in the candlelight, and the only sign of life coming from him were the shallow gasps of breath through the involuntary workings of his lungs.‘You’re finally here, Alec.’The source of a lifetime’s worth of suffering and humiliation and the man who betrayed her in the end—the Duke Alec of House Winston—was conveniently dying before her.However, he wasn’t a man yet. Right now, he was a mere child like her.Sylvia secured the candle atop a box before closing the back door. A sudden gust of wind sprayed rain over her, which she wiped off with her bare hands.In this small storage room, where Sylvia and a bleeding young lord were alone, a grin made its way onto her face.A torrent of thoughts crossed her mind.Her hands trembled. Her insides ached.Mov
