She Was Sent by God - Chapter 148-1
“Your highness, we must leave right away. The king’s knights are on their way.”
“Please wait a moment.”
Ilona hobbled out of bed. Her limbs were as slender as a branch.
“I left something at the prince’s palace. I’ll be back with that.”
“Can’t you just send a maid?”
“It’s my son’s property, so I’d like to take it with my own hands.”
“Then I’ll come with you.”
“No, please wait right here. Who would dare harm me inside the palace? ”
Laslo tried to persuade her a few more times, but eventually gave up due to the queen’s obstinacy.
“Instead, you must return quickly.”
“Duke Arpad.”
“Yes, go ahead.”
“Please express my gratitude to Princess Agnes. I owe her so much when she was still at the palace.”
Ilona said as she walked out the door. Laslo smiled.
“Please go out and tell Agnes yourself. She’ll be delighted.”
“All right, I’ll do that.”
The queen left the room with a faint smile. The door slammed shut.

“Oh, Your Majesty. How did you get here? ”
“How about it, His Highness?”
When they encountered the queen, the servant appeared perplexed. It was comprehensible. Because the queen has recently been harming herself, word of her confinement in the bedroom has spread among the servants who stayed.
“He’s in the Manus Hall.”
The Coronation ceremony took place at Manus Hall. Rather than asking why the king was there, the queen walked slowly toward the hall. The queen had to open the hall herself since there was no attendant watching the door.
Sebastian was sitting on the highest platform. Ilona gave him a friendly smile.
“Your Majesty.”
“Ilona?”
When Sebastian, who was seated on the throne, saw the queen, he leapt from his seat.
“How did you get all the way here?”
“Why are you here?” Ilona inquired calmly. It was as if nothing had happened between them.
“I was preparing to welcome the visitors.”
He personally escorted Ilona, holding her hand and grinning as he went.
“Do you recall what happened that day? You’re wearing a white dress and sitting next to me like we’re at a wedding.
“I remember, Your Highness. It was an unforgettable day.”
Sebastian made a face that seemed to recall old memories as he pointed to the two thrones. It was the day Ilona and Sebastian climbed the platform and took the king and queen’s seats.
“My Queen, I didn’t tell you about Manus Hall, did I?”
“What story?”
Sebastian was so happy to see her react that he didn’t notice the blade sticking out of Ilona’s sleeve.
“There are books that you can only read when you become the king of Nirseg, and one of those books is about Manus Hall.”
“I’m curious.”
Ilona responded to his words with laughter.
“The first king made a contract with the dragon and asked for one thing: safety. To provide him with a beast capable of protecting the king.”
“A beast?”
“Yes, it is said that the magical beast given by the dragon is sleeping underneath this Manus Hall. What do you think? Don’t you want to see it? ”
Sebastian said to Ilona as he turned his head. Ilona lowered her hand quietly and gripped the dagger’s handle tightly.
She only has one shot.
“Do you remember the promise you made when I married you, Your Highness?”
“Well, I promised to make you the most noble woman in the world.”
She vividly recalled their wedding. It was after her late fiancé’s blood had been drained. She married the prince, whom she had only seen twice under her father’s command. The murderer whispered loving and honorable words in her ear.
“My entire marriage to His Majesty was hell.”
“……Ilona.”
“After Ballaz died, I wanted to die every day.”
“I haven’t heard that name in a long time.”
Sebastian’s lips twitched. Ilona was unconcerned.
“However, it is true that time is medicine. Little by little, I forgot about the Ballaz. I found love in someone else.”
“…….”
“They were everything to me. Your Highness.”
“Your everything should be me.”
He spoke as soon as she finished, as if he was waiting.
“Just as you are my everything.”
“But you killed him.”
“Ilona”
“Why did you kill my son?”
Her entire body shook. Her teeth and lungs were trembling, and she was having trouble breathing. Ilona tightened her grip on the dagger.
“I had intended to kill you first. But there were so many people besides me trying to kill you. So, I thought…”
“…….”
“How can I put you in hell? How can I make you suffer as much as I did? ”
Ilona took the dagger she had hidden and placed it around her neck. She applied pressure and stabbed herself in the neck, sending blood streaming down her white neck. Sebastian leapt from his seat.
