General Adopts a Little Beggar…Unaware She’s His Lost… — Transcript

Is this kid dying? Kid meat must be tastier than that rotten meat. I don't think that's a good idea. What do you know? Where I'm from, we call it livestock.

Mom, did you send that angel? This is a kid. Wake up. Who are you? Why do you have this jade pendant? Help, Mom. Help, Mom, kid. Kid, what's wrong?

Poor kid. But you can't just see that she's poor and cute and kidnapped someone else's daughter. Don't worry, Mom. She's just a kid I rescued off the street. You guys go ahead.

I know what I'm doing. All these years, he never got married or had a daughter. His heart was set on the woman who saved him back then. No one could talk him out of it. If only he could bring her back. But where is she? Where is she?

Thank you for saving me, Miss Arthur. I have nothing to repay you with. I am already a mother, so I can't stay long. I'll leave this medicine for you, sir.

So, she's married. Such a wonderful woman. The man she married must be outstanding, too.

Mister, here. Have some water. Tell me, why do you have this pendant? This is what Mom gave to Lily. Mom, could it be that she's the daughter of the woman who saved me back then? Mom is no longer here. What did you say? This is the only thing she left for Lily.

What are you standing there for? Hurry up and move it out. This isn't right, is it? We agreed to wait until dark. Poof. I've been saving it for her till now. That's already generous enough. Take it away.

Mom, this outfit must be worth a fortune. This little bastard times D. Who's she hooked up with? No, that's not right. She and her mom were as poor as beggars. How could they know some big shot? Who do you think you are? You promised

Lily you'd wait for her until dark. I'll do whatever I want. Got it. Keep moving.

I'll take care of her funeral. Do you understand? Yes. Yes. Go, go, go, go. Don't be scared, Mom. Lily's here. Lily will protect you.

When I was fighting on the front lines, I imagined over and over how you were doing.

But what I never imagined was that you'd end up like this. My fault. All my fault for coming too late. In this world, it turns out that besides Lily, there are others who would cry for Mom.

Mom. Mom, don't go. Be good. I want to stay with you. Mom, it's so dark and cold here.

You'll be scared. Mom, you hate being alone. Mom, you only have me, Mom. And I only have you, Mom. Snow in June. Even God is seeking justice for your Mom. How could I let her daughter be alone? Who said you only have your Mom? From now on, you are Arthur Sterling's daughter.

Why haven't you sent this child back to her parents yet? Her Mom has passed away, and her mother was the one who saved my life. I can never repay that debt. From now on, this child is the Sterling family's precious jewel. Poor kid. Mom,

Is that you? Lily, I missed you so much. Quick, for our future, miss, get a room ready. The brightest and the best. Mom. Mom, don't leave me. Mom.

Miss. You. Who are you? Madam, the young miss. Okay. Okay, you can go now. And who are you? Where are you trying to sell Lily?

Even though Lily's Mom is gone, Lily's not afraid of you. This child is so young. What kind of life has she been through? There. There. Lily. Do you remember the mister who was with you? From now on, he's your dad. I'm your grandma. We'll never let anyone hurt you. So what? Just like Mom.

Hurry, hurry. Quick, eat the preserved fruit Grandma prepared for you. It's sweet. Lily's life has been so bitter. From now on, it'll all be sweet.

Grandma, what's wrong? It's nothing. Nothing. Just an old problem. Whenever I catch a chill at night, it just Grandma, please get better soon. I hope Grandma is safe, healthy, and can stay with me forever.

I'm all good now. Whenever I'm in a draft at night, I get this chronic cough from the cold. But it's been decades. How did it suddenly stop? Great. Grandma's better.

Is it because of Lily? No. Impossible. She just now only patted my back. How could it have such a big effect? Grandma. Grandma. I'm here. Grandma's here. Well, let's not think about it for now. Grandma has prepared so many good things.

Nice. Nice. Pretty, pretty. Hehe, eat up. Eat up. What's wrong, Lily? Is the food not to your taste? Grandpa and Grandma, do you really not mind having Lily? They all say I'm a jinx and cursed my Mom to death. That's nonsense. Lily is sweet,

lovely, and kind-hearted. A child like this can't possibly be a jinx. Maybe our Lily is a little lucky star. So Lily can also be firmly defended and cherished. Then Lily must not burden Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad. Thank you for taking care of me. I can't

drag you down. Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad, may you all live long lives. Oh, you silly girl.

You are my daughter. Arthur Sterling's daughter. Where are you going? So, what if she's a jinx? And what if she's a lucky star? You'll always be my daughter. Mom, so in this world, there really is someone like you who doesn't mind that Lily's a jinx. It's okay,

honey. Say, "Dad, for me, Dad." Dad will throw a grand banquet for you, so everyone can witness that Lily is Arthur Sterling's daughter. Don't worry, Lily. Like your Dad said, in our family, it doesn't matter if you're a jinx or a lucky star. Besides, a master once said that Arthur

is the chosen one, protected by a golden light. He can overcome any danger. Haha.

A lucky star is a lucky star. Huh? With Chloe, even more people come to suck up to the general's house. Of course, Chloe was born with a life of good luck. The twin bracelets. Destiny swap.

Now my daughter's the real lucky star. Honey, times are chaotic now. The court is conscripting soldiers for war. As a general appointed by His Majesty, shouldn't you be on the battlefield?

Well, well, screw the battlefield. I'm just a deserter. I don't know who wiped out the enemy army back then. The stupid emperor thought I was the only one who survived, so he made me a general. Ow, ow, ow. It hurts. My old injury from the battlefield hasn't healed yet. I really want

to go to the battlefield, achieve military merits, but I still need to rest. How can you make a name without going to war? Whatever. Anyway, he's the chosen one predicted in the novel. He'll come out on top sooner or later. It's fine. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. Take your time to

recover. But General Sterling, when you strike it rich, don't forget me and Chloe. Haha. No problem.

No problem. Three days later, General Sterling is going to throw his daughter a grand banquet.

Prepare a grand gift. A daughter? But I've never heard that General Sterling has any daughter.

This is a bit too lavish. In modern times, it would be worth at least $100 million. As expected of General Sterling's home, it's truly grand. The daughter of this mansion actually gets to live in such a luxurious place. This Arthur Sterling is the first general appointed by His Majesty. His status is much higher than mine. In a moment, you must make sure you and General Sterling's daughter get along well. I'm counting on you. No matter how formidable he is, Arthur Sterling is nothing more than Beatatric's stepping stone to success. General Sterling has arrived.

So handsome. General Sterling. This is for Miss Lily. The white jade hairpin I selected. It warms when you touch it. Worth $10,000. This is what I selected for Miss Lily. The exquisite silk dress worth $100,000. This is a gift for Miss Lily. The ruby earrings worth $1 million. And me? Me, too.

This useless general's eyes and brows somehow look a bit like Lily. Miss Lily has arrived.

Miss Lily is here. Lily Smith. She's General Sterling's daughter. How is that possible? Miss Lily Smith. Wasn't she kicked out by Beatatric as a jinx? And now she's turned into Arthur Sterling's daughter. It's her. How could it be him? Hey, don't be scared.

So, the one who abandoned Lily was Beatatric. That's impossible. Lily Smith, come out here.

Tell me, did you follow me here to beg for money and pretend to be General Sterling's daughter? Beg you for money? Lily.

Tell me, did you follow me here to beg for money and pretend to be General Sterling's daughter? Beg you for money? Lily is at our home, spoiled and loved. Why would she need to beg you for a few pennies? Since when did Lily get so close to them? You must be mistaken.

This Lily Smith is my daughter. With General Sterling status, how could that be? General Smith, you're the one who's mistaken. If she were your daughter, why would she be on the streets? How could she have almost been eaten alive by refugees? How could she have

buried her mother all by herself, losing her mom at such a young age? Or perhaps General Smith admits to favoring the mistress over the wife and kicking out his own wife and daughter.

General Sterling, you may not know, she's a jinx. Whoever gets close to her ends up unlucky. We have no choice. We're just warning you to stay away from her to avoid the bad luck. Lily is not a jinx. Don't you dare say that her own mother was jinxed to death by her. That proves

she's a jinx. Yes, General Sterling. Just drive her away. Listen up all of you. From now on, Lily Smith is the daughter of me, Arthur Sterling. I, Arthur Sterling, will never do anything that lets my wife and daughter starve in the streets. As for Lily and her mother, those who oppose them,

whether in the past or in the future, I will not let them off. That's right. From now on, the Sterling Residence is Lily's biggest backer. Can you believe it? Lily Smith actually found herself a powerful backer. Guards, bring the gift I prepared for Lily up here.

This coral tree is way too big. This This is actually red coral. And it's even a whole plant.

A coral tree. They say this coral tree is the rarest. A blessing from heaven. Totally priceless.

What I, Arthur Sterling, give to my daughter isn't something just anyone can touch. An imperial decree has arrived.

Why did an imperial decree suddenly come? Does this mean General Sterling is going to war again? By the grace of heaven, the emperor decrees. General Sterling has meritorious service in battle. Having heard that you hosted a banquet for your daughter,

we specially bestow $10,000 and a thousand rolls of silk. End of decree. Thank you, your majesty. Isn't this better than being General Smith's daughter?

I'm the real lucky star. This is the last thing mom gave to Lily. From now on, it'll take mom's place and stay with you forever.

Mom, it's so noisy. Dad monk Chloe, who pushed you down? Who made the coral tree look like this?

Lily, does it hurt? Are you okay? Should grandma get you a doctor to look at you?

I'm sorry, Dad. I didn't protect mom's things. It's my fault. This rare coral tree is a heavenly blessing. How could you just destroy it? General Sterling, regarding this matter, you must give us an explanation. I never thought this Lily Smith could be such a vicious child.

It's bad enough that she's vicious, but this heavenly blessing has been destroyed. It's such a shame. Enough. Who broke Lily's pendant? Who damaged the coral tree? I'll get to the bottom of this. But whoever did this, it couldn't be Lily. Lily is kind and innocent. The things

her mom left her and what I gave her, she will cherish them more than anyone else.

Dad, I'm afraid some children at such a young age staged the whole thing and played the victim.

General General Sterling, what do you mean? Oh my god. Come look at this. What is this?

The color, the luster. These are jade coral beads. What? Jade coral beads? Rumor has it this is priceless. Oh my god. Could it be this is a sign from heaven? Jade coral beads are an auspicious sign from heaven. Once in a million years. Unless it's the arrival of a lucky charm,

the embodiment of great fortune. Could it be? All of this is because of Lily. No. Impossible. How could it still grow jade coral beads? That's right. Absolutely impossible. Lily Smith, she's a jinx. Born a jinx. Enough. Again and again, over and over,

you pick on Lily. Do you take me for a fool? This is Lily Smith's fault. Guards.

Escort the Smiths out. General Sterling. Who do you think you are? How dare you touch me?

When the prophecy in the book comes true, you won't even have a chance to lick my shoes.

Don't cry. Thank you, Dad, for standing firmly by Lily's side. You didn't do anything wrong, right? But mom's pendant and the coral tree dad gave me are gone forever. Who says Just wait and see. I'll give Lily a surprise.

Dad will give Lily a surprise, too. What? Let's take this bead that carries Lily's good fortune and make it into a necklace for grandma. Yay! That's so clever. That sharp with all me.

You, Arthur Sterling. How dare you kick me out in front of so many people? Don't I need to save face? Dad, don't be mad. Cry, cry, cry. Aren't you a lucky star? Then bless me now.

How can you blame Chloe? That jade coral bead, didn't you see? That was all Chloe's doing. Oh, it's all dad's fault. Dad was wrong. I was just angry. Don't be mad at me. Okay, Dad. Be nicer to Chloe. Chloe is a lucky star. She will bless you. Our Chloe is a

huge lucky star. It must be because you touched the coral tree earlier that made it grow a coral beef. And Lily Smith just benefited from it for nothing.

But this time, I offended Arthur Sterling. I don't know if it'll affect my chances to get promoted and get rich. What's there to fear? We'll open the grand.

What nonsense are you talking? Dad, mom's not talking nonsense. Now there are refugees everywhere. If we open the granaries, wouldn't they praise us? With the people behind us, why be scared of Arthur Sterling? The food the refugees eat is migraine.

Dad, didn't you bring Lily here to string beads? What? You said our big brother adopted a stray child? Such a big thing. Why didn't you discuss it with me? Don't be afraid. My brother Julian is inside. Back then,

he took an arrow for me and got his leg injured. He doesn't want to see people and lives in the side courtyard. He's a bit grumpy, but his skill at stringing beads is second to none.

Get out. So, this is Julian. He looks just as handsome as dad. Bro, so you're the stray? Who let you in? Julian? Bro, why would you adopt this stray? Why would you make such a big decision without discussing it with me? What if she's the daughter of a fugitive or a descendant of

a criminal official? That would bring disaster to the Sterling residence. Lily is not a stray, nor is she the daughter of a fugitive or a descendant of a criminal official. You have no say in this matter. Get out, Julian. This is Lily. She's your niece. You never had a daughter.

Don't be scared. Julian is in there. Back then, he took an arrow for me and got a leg injury.

He refuses to see anyone and stays in this side courtyard. Don't blame Julian. It's because Julian saved Dad and got a leg injury that he's been grumpy. If Julian's leg could heal, he would be just like Dad, riding into battle again, unmatched in brilliance.

Who told you you could just walk around in my room like that? Dad, look. This? What is this? Dad, if we can make this thing, does that mean Julian won't have to stay in bed forever? All these years, I've never found this book in this room. Why did Lily find it

right after she arrived? Or could it be that this book was created just for Lily? Dad. Dad. Quick, guards. Follow the instructions in this book and make this item now.

Awesome. Julian can move freely now. Lily, this is all thanks to you. Even if I can leave this side courtyard. So what? I can't even stand. I'm still a loser. Julian, it will hurt. None of your business. Guards, show them out.

If Julian's leg could fully heal, that would be great. What? Julian can leave that room now. Great.

Grandma, this is Lily's gift for you. Beautiful. This is what you asked for. I don't like owing people.

Lily, grandma has a gift for you, too. It's all your dad's fault. He broke the bracelet. He didn't even get you a new one. He deserves a scolding. Yes. Yes. Yes. It's my fault. But it's okay. Grandma will get you a new one. Look. What's

this? This is mom's pendant. Yes. Grandma said she would give you a surprise. Grandma set the pendant fragments into this bracelet for you. Lily's mom hasn't left. She will always be with Lily. Grandma. Oh, poor dear. As for that pendant, the rest of it, Grandma also found a place for it.

If only Lily had found food sooner, mom wouldn't have starved to death. So that's it. This has always been her burden. Guards. General Sterling, at your command. Issue my decree. Open the granaries to relieve the refugees. From now on,

with me here, no refugee will be homeless. No corpses of the starved everywhere. The wind blows. The general's grace spreads far and wide. Mountains of white rice. Like a mountain, blessings fill the hall of those who help the poor in this turbulent world. And with

a drought upon us. What is to be done? Your Majesty, I observed the stars last night. I still have a plan. Out with it. I observed the stars and saw an anomaly of the purple star falling straight to the south. This is an auspicious sign from heaven to protect our ethl

guard. Combine that with recent events at General Sterling's manor. Wait, what does this have to do with General Sterling? Your majesty doesn't know. Recently at General Sterling's manor, a strange event occurred. General Sterling gave his own daughter a very rare coral tree.

But even stranger, this coral tree actually grew a jade coral bead. A coral bead. This coral bead can be hard to find in a thousand years. It's a blessing from heaven. It is said that this coral tree formed the coral bead through the hands of a child. Who is this

child? Find them for me quickly. This must be a lucky star from heaven that can protect our ethyl guard. She's among the daughters of General Sterling and General Smith.

General Sterling, General Smith, I am here. General Smith, ever since the battle years ago, my old wounds haven't healed. I haven't set foot on the battlefield since lately. Has your health improved? Still the same?

Enough. Enough. This time I want to ask you both about your daughters. Our daughters? I heard that among your daughters there is one who can protect Ethel guard as a lucky star. The political storm in court should not involve Lily, a mere child. Excellent. Even his majesty knows Khloe is the

lucky star. My promotion and wealth are just around the corner. Your majesty. Actually, the rumored lucky star is my daughter. I've also heard that at General Sterling's residence, coral beads appeared. They were produced by my daughter's hands. Those coral beads,

this appearance doesn't look like that of someone blessed by a lucky star. All right. As the grand astrologer said, in 5 days there will be another movement of the purple star. At that time, bring your daughters to the observatory. Who is the lucky star? I'll see it for myself.

My time to shine has come, your majesty. No more discussion. Court is dismissed. General Sterling, it seems that soon I will be one step ahead of you. Better keep kids out of court affairs. Haha. General Sterling, if you're jealous,

just say it. Don't worry. When I make it big, I won't forget to repay General Sterling for the favor of kicking me out in broad daylight from the Sterling residence.

Hey, today I really saw a ghost. Ever since I put on the necklace Lily gave me, my throat has been nourished by sweet dew and feels so comfortable. And there's more. You know what else? Despite the drought this year, the grain at the manor has actually doubled from

last year. All of this is thanks to our little Lily here. Lily isn't a jinx anymore. Lily can become a little lucky star. That's great. This way, the poor people can have food. Don't worry, Lily. Before your dad opened the graineries so that everyone had enough to eat. Dad is the

world's best dad. I'm not the best. It's okay, Dad. The thing is today at court, his majesty mentioned the lucky star. Lucky star. His majesty knows that Lily is a lucky star. He didn't say that. Ah, good. Good. I don't want Lily to be used as a tool for seeking wealth and

luck. That's exactly why his majesty ordered me to take Lily to the observatory in 5 days. The purple star stirs and a celestial anomaly appears. And then we'll know who the lucky star is.

I disagree. The Sterlings only fight wars and never meddal in court affairs. Now, determining a lucky star. Isn't that against our ancestral rules? It's not that serious. Julian, calm down. Right. We haven't decided yet. Don't be angry, Julian. Lily hasn't gone anywhere yet.

Look, if you're set on breaking the ancestral rules, you'll have to step over my dead body.

Oh my god, Julian, you you stood up. This This is impossible. It's true. It really is.

Could it be this child? Awesome. Julian can fully stand up now. I can stand up. Are you happy? Of course, Julian can stand up. In the future, you'll be just like dad. Go to the battlefield and become a great hero. Then even more reason not to let you go to the observatory. Why? Because Julian

doesn't want to break the ancestral rules. But then Uncle Emperor will get mad. Like if his majesty finds out that Lily is a true lucky star, I'm afraid Lily will completely become a tool for seeking wealth and luck. Grandpa and Grandma, Dad, Julian, don't worry.

Lily will be fine. Lily will protect this family. I can't let Uncle Emperor get mad and punish dad.

I don't know what's up. I've been having terrible luck lately. I keep tripping here and there. It's got to be because I bumped into Lily Smith. That jinx. What a jinx.

That kid's actually quite smart and cute. She looks more like a lucky star. Could it be the twin bracelets are messed up? Nah, that's not it either. Aren't these bracelets still perfectly fine on Lily Smith's wrists?

Sun and moon shine together. Stars guide the way. The time has come. Arthur. Arthur, you've got great military achievements. So what? You always outshine me. So what? Once Khloe's crown the lucky star, I'll trample you underfoot. And you

just wait until Lily Smith is exposed as a jinx and thrown into the royal dungeon.

Defying heaven and changing destiny. The destiny swap. Years of effort all come down to this. I, Chloe Smith, am the real lucky star. May the heavens show their power. Have mercy on us all.

Grant us celestial anomaly today to help us reveal the true blessing. We bow in gratitude.

It's okay. This child suffered such a terrifying lightning strike of divine punishment. Not even a thread of her clothes was damaged. A miracle. It's a miracle.

I was right. This child is indeed a lucky star. Oh no. If the emperor finds out that Lily is a lucky star, then Lily will surely become a tool for seeking wealth and luck.

I clearly switched their destinies. Why did it fail? Impossible. She can't be a lucky star. She's a jinx. She stole Khloe's destiny. Shut up. Making such a racket. What a disgrace.

I will reward you handsomely. A lucky star has descended. Heaven is blessing Ethgard. Lily, is she really a lucky star?

Guards, issue a decree. Lily Smith has served Ethogard well. Grant $1 million. Hold on, your majesty. General Sterling, I have something important to tell you. What's the matter, Dad?

I today must place justice above family. General Sterling, what do you mean by this? Your Majesty, although I am the eldest son of the Sterling family, more importantly, I am your majesty's loyal and trusted minister. Honestly, I cannot deceive your majesty.

Dad. What's this? When did this get into Lily's pocket? Your Majesty, this is dark iron. It looks like a useless lump, but when lightning hits, it draws it in. My family was briefly blinded by wealth and placed this object on Lily Smith to deceive your majesty. How can that be? Grandpa, Grandma,

and Julian are definitely not such people. Dad, why would you do this? See, Khloe is a lucky star worthy of the name. Your majesty Arthur Sterling deceived the emperor. Unforgivable. He must be severely punished. Your Majesty Khloe is the one born with a life of good luck. A born lucky star,

not Lily Smith. That fate can never compare. Thank you. All my efforts didn't fall short at the last moment. Your Sterling family has been loyal for generations. You're the first general I personally appointed. You, you and your family. How could you do something like this?

You're completely blinded by wealth and glory. I'm willing to take the punishment. I've got no complaints.

We've got no complaints. Uncle Emperor, please don't punish my dad. Punish Lily instead. Take all the beatings and scoldings.

Lily won't complain either. I'll take all the beatings and scoldings. This kid is so young, yet all she wants is to protect her dad. Such a pure heart. Your majesty, this is an act of deceiving your majesty. He should be severely punished. I beg your majesty to punish him

severely. This kid looks not good at all. How can she be a lucky star? That's enough. Considering this Sterling kid is young but has a pure heart, protecting her family. As for today, I pardon you.

Thank you, your majesty. Thank you, Uncle Emperor. Damn it. I didn't even manage to kill Arthur Sterling.

No matter. As long as I've got Chloe, this lucky star, sooner or later I'll trample Arthur Sterling underfoot.

Enough. Now leave. So you don't hang around here and annoy me. Thank you, your majesty. Your Majesty, my family and I will take our leave now. Dismissed, Arthur Sterling. We'll see about that. You little rascal. To keep the emperor

from knowing that Lily is a lucky star, you already thought of such a method. You didn't even tell us in advance. Good thing this old man reacted quickly.

If I told you, this act wouldn't be real enough. Dad, what's going on? Is Lily still a lucky star? Silly girl. Of course, she is. But you can only be a lucky star in front of us. Otherwise, if others find out, Lily will very likely be regarded as a tool for seeking wealth and

luck. What would happen? In that case, you would never see your dad again. Lily doesn't want that.

Lily doesn't want to never see grandpa and grandma and dad and Julian. Come on, let's take Lily home. The emperor's wrath leaves a million dead. Beatatrice using children to play tricks. What awaits you is not wealth and glory. The emperor knows Khloe's identity as a

lucky star. Our family, the Smiths, will soon have endless wealth and glory. I, Beatatrice, will be second only to the emperor above everyone else. Now Ethgard is at war and suffering from drought. Since we found a lucky star, let the lucky star pray for rain for Ethgard.

What's wrong? I won't treat you badly. After it's done, I will certainly reward you handsomely.

Come with me to the observatory. Oie Smith, listen to the emperor. Go up and pray for rain.

How do I pray for rain? Mom never taught me. Mrs. Smith, please don't interfere with the Lucky Stars performance.

Come on, start now. I I I I said start. Are you mocking me? Forgive me, your majesty. Forgive me, your majesty. This is her first time meeting the emperor. She's too nervous. Please give her a little more time. Chloe, you can do it. You can do it. You are a heaven-sent

lucky star. I used the twin destinies to swap Lily Smiths and Khloe's destinies. Now Chloe has a lucky stars destiny. Whatever she says, rain will come. None.

Let it rain. God. Chloe begs you. Send rain. What's going on? Haven't I already reversed the destiny?

Come on, rain. Give me rain now. Stop you all. Are you playing me for a fool?

If you dare harm me, I'll make you pay. No, can't panic. Maybe actually the lucky stars power just this once made a mistake. Your majesty.

Actually, Khloe's power as a lucky star has conditions. You have to wait until the night of the full moon to unleash the power of the lucky star to its fullest. Why didn't you say so before?

I This is my first time meeting your majesty. too. T too nervous. I forgot for a moment. Nervous.

Your majesty, please calm down. During this great drought of Ethgard, with refugees running rampant, the people are singing a nursery rhyme praising the general for opening the granaries. General Smith has been so kind-hearted. Then the fact that Khloe Smith is a lucky star must be true as well.

I opened the graneries and handed out that rotten grain and it actually got turned into a nursery rhyme by the common people praising it. Idiots, your majesty, all these are what I should do. Relieving the people's hardships is relieving your majesty's hardships. Very well.

Since the grand astrologer vouches for you, I will trust you one more time. In 10 days, the envoy from Valoria will visit our Ethgard. It happens to be the day of the full moon.

Then let Valoria have a good look at our ethyl guard's lucky stars power. If we can't pray for rain by then, making me lose face before foreign nations, the Smith family will bring me your head.

I Yes, your majesty. This General Smith has merits in killing the enemy and was rewarded by the emperor. What for? This General Smith hasn't been on the battlefield for 800 years. Besides, if we talk about merits in killing the enemy, who can compare to that one from the Sterling

residence? I heard it's because General Smith's illegitimate daughter is a lucky star from heaven.

Arthur Sterling, you watch closely. See how I step by step trample you underfoot. This is my first step in this novel toward glory. Later, when the prophecy of Beatatrice, the chosen one, comes true, that's when I'll truly be second only to the Emperor. Let's go. Hey, wait. Don't rush.

These days, our Smith residence and your Sterling residents aren't the same anymore. Now, our Smith residence has a heavensent lucky star. That's a well-known fact. As for your sterling residence, for wealth and glory, you let that Jinx Lily Smith pretend to be a lucky star. Impersonating a lucky

star. That's the crime of deceiving the emperor. What's more, you actually let that Jinx Lily Smith impersonate a lucky star? Don't you dare bully my dad. Still calling him dad, you ungrateful brat. Take a good look. The one standing in front of you is your real dad. If you were Lily's dad

when Lily suffered and froze, where were you when Lily was bullied? Where were you then?

You dares speak to your own dad like that. No one dares to hurt my daughter in front of me. Arthur Sterling.

My things. The Imperial gift is damaged. Can you take responsibility for this? Arthur Sterling, is this your doing? My stuff was perfectly fine. How could it just fall down out of nowhere? Do I have to do it myself? It's not yours. Even if you got it through deceit,

you'll eventually be exposed and it'll backfire on you. Clear the area. At the entrance of the Sterling residence, there's no room for scum. Yes, sir.

Stop right there. Arthur Sterling. You just wait. Haven't seen mom and dad smile like this in a long time. Bad news. Bad news. What happened?

Why are you in such a hurry? The Smiths are using the Lucky Stars name to set up a medical booth. Seeing patients. That should be a good thing, but the consultation fee is $100.

We're doing this publicly under the name of the lucky star. Will it work? Don't worry. The grand astrologer told his majesty about me opening the granaries and being praised by the people.

That's when his majesty became a bit more convinced that Khloe is a lucky star. Now we have to play it all out. We need to make his majesty fully believe that I am kind-hearted and completely trust that Chloe is a lucky star. But Dad,

I don't know how to heal people. Silly. Who said you have to actually treat them? Just do some random treatment. After all, you have the lucky stars golden light protecting you. Even if you give them a rock, it will still work. Besides, the consultation fee is

$100. We make money and gain fame both at once. I want to see the doctor. Me, too. Me, too.

Lady Lucky Star, how is it? Can my illness be cured? No, it's gone. Oh dear. Lady Lucky Star means you take a medicine pouch home and you'll be cured. I was wondering which miracle doctor is seeing patients here.

Arthur Sterling, it's you again. What are you up to now? So, the Lucky Stars Clinic gives out sand medicine bags. Are you trying to kill people? Especially in this famine year, you're actually using this method to swindle people out of their money. $100.

Do you know ordinary people without eating or drinking for a whole year can't even save up $100 sand? How can it be sand? Don't talk nonsense. What do you mean? I'm cheating everyone. The medicine bags I gave out are all effective. You're basically making everyone eat sand. Everyone

believe in the lucky star. This Arthur Sterling is just jealous of me. Before his family even tried to present to his majesty the Jinx Lily Smith as my daughter, the lucky star. My daughter is the lucky star appointed by his majesty. That's right. That's right. We should trust General Smith.

We trust the lucky star. Exactly. We trust the lucky star. Everyone, after taking the medicine, stay away from the Sterings.

These medicine bags contain the aura of the lucky star. It clashes with the aura of the Jinx, Lily Smith.

Lily is not Lily is not a jinx. See, that's the reality. A jinx should stay. Timmy. Timmy, what's wrong?

Why? Why is it that after I gave my grandson this medicine packet, his body is hotter and even burning up? Hemp. Eating sand instead of medicine when you're sick. If something bad doesn't happen to you, who else would it happen to?

You You have to explain yourself. My grandson has a fever. I sold everything I had just to scrape together $100. How could taking your medicine make him even worse? Let me go.

General Smith, you owe me an explanation. What you gave us? Could it be just plain sand? That's impossible. These medicine packets have all been touched by the lucky star. They all carry good luck. Timmy. Oh, my dear Timmy.

Ma'am, can I hug him? Be a good boy. Timmy. Timmy, you're alive. Good heavens. Oh my goodness.

And the fever's gone, too. He's completely cured. Incredible. Absolutely incredible. Lily, didn't I tell you not to show off in front of strangers? Mrs. Higgins and Timmy were both saved by Lily. They're not strangers.

Arthur Sterling's figure and looks are both better than Beatatric's. It's just a pity he doesn't have the Smith surname. He's not the one from the novel, the prophesied chosen one. Otherwise, I would definitely follow him. Being Mrs.

Sterling wouldn't be bad either. Look, this is the power of our Lucky Star medicine bag.

Lucky star. A bunch of idiots. Can't tell right from wrong. Julian, are you defending Lily? You're the ones who can't tell right from wrong. This is the Lucky Star medicine bag taking effect. Otherwise, Lily Smith, a jinx. How could she save a life? Lily is not a jinx.

That bracelet seems off. So, my bracelet really was swapped. No wonder good fortune came back to Lily Smith. These twin bracelets were my bonus from Trans Migrating System Rewards. Just wasted.

Aw, I just thought the bracelet was so pretty. Keep your daughter in line. If there's a next time, I don't mind laying a hand on a child. Rest assured, General Sterling. Yes, rest assured. Guards, tear down their stall.

How dare you? Chloe is a lucky star. This is the Lucky Stars stall. I am the Emperor's personally appointed first general of Ethgard, and you are merely the lowest ranking general. Why wouldn't I dare you?

Since you all think it's Chloe's doing, you're blind and heartless and ungrateful. Then I'll tear this place apart. Perfect. I've been idle for so long. I want to stretch my legs.

You You're going too far. Remember this. No one bullies Arthur Sterling's daughter. Stop. Stop. Arthur Sterling. I'm at odds with you forever. If I can let Khloe take credit for your work twice, I can do it a third time, a fourth time, every time.

even without the twin bracelets. So what? In 10 days when we received the envoy, I still have ways to make everyone believe that Chloe is the lucky star worthy of the name.

Summon the envoy from Valoria to the court. Summon the envoy from Valoria for an audience.

Dad, why didn't you come with us? His majesty wants you to perform before the envoy, not me. Besides, That's three years ago. A comrade from that war. He was saved and became an attendant to the envoy of Valoria. Back in the Battle of the River,

Ethel Guard was almost completely wiped out. I fled the battle and that's the only reason I'm alive. Somehow later, the enemy got wiped out completely. The emperor credited the victory to me. If he finds out that I was a deserter, it'll all come out.

What are you thinking about? No need. You guys go ahead. I'll wait for you.

All right then. Come. Ethel guard has had years of severe drought and can't even offer decent fruit.

Do you need Valoria to solve the urgent crisis for you? No need. Lord envoy. Ethogard has its own solution. Oh, guards. Bring in the lucky star. Bring in the lucky star.

Your Majesty, Lord Envoy, this child is the solution I was talking about. What uses a kid? You may not know, Lord Envoy. This child is a lucky star from heaven. She can bring auspicious signs to Effard. Is that so miraculous? Chloe Smith, today is the day of the full

moon you spoke of. Lucky Star, you can use the power of the lucky star to pray for rain. Yes.

Don't you worry. This time for sure. Good girl. Don't be nervous. Trust me. Anyway, I've got everything all set. This time there'll be no mistakes.

How could she just disappear? Go find her at all costs. We must find Lily and bring her back.

News just came in. Master, Madam General, this candy vendor says he saw Miss Lily before she disappeared.

Tom pays his respects. General Sterling. Speak. Where did you see Lily? This morning, Miss Lily came and bought a candied Hawthorne for me. She was heading home when a carriage snatched her.

Did you get a clear look at who took her? Seems like it. Seems like it. People from General Smith's residence.

Beatatrice and Khloe Smith. They're in the palace now. You want to stop me? No, I'm coming with you.

What? Guards. General, breaking into the palace is a capital offense. General, if his majesty blames me, I'll take it all on myself. General, stay safe. You must bring Lily back safely. Here comes the rain.

Kids are kids. It's raining. 3 years of the great drought in Ethgard. Finally, it's raining. In all my years in Ethelard, I never heard of a lucky star. General Sterling, calm down, General Sterling.

Protect the emperor. Your majesty. Arthur Sterling. What's the meaning of this? I've offended you today. Once this is over, I'll beg for your forgiveness. Today, I came to find my daughter. Anyone who gets in my way. Everyone knows these

two brothers. Used to be the god of war on the battlefield. Who dare clash headon with them?

Speak. Where is Lily? Chloe Smith can't possibly have the ability to successfully pray for rain. Could it be? Stay right there. Don't move, Dad. Don't be afraid. Dad's here. Dad won't let anyone bully you again.

What's going on? Why is General Sterling's daughter here? Well, you'd better ask Mrs. Smith about that. What do you mean? Someone saw that. Mrs. Smith's servants kidnapped Lily. No, it wasn't me.

When I transmigrated, the luck changing charm from the system reward was discovered by Arthur Sterling as well. A charm is dark magic. Don't tell me you used witchcraft to swap destinies.

Your majesty, this is pure nonsense. Well, then explain this. Why Lily Smith was present while Khloe Smith succeeded in praying for rain. Do you take me for a fool? This must be Arthur Sterling's whole scheme. He's jealous that Khloe is a lucky star. So he deliberately had Lily

Smith tied up here just to make you think it was Chloe who stole Lily's credit. That's right. Your Majesty Beatatrice request an audience. Summon him to the court. Your Majesty, this Lily Smith is actually my biological daughter. She has the destiny of a jinx. She's also jealous of Khloe

and has bad behavior. That's why I threw her out. Little did I know that General Sterling adopted her. He's also been corrupted by her. And out of jealousy, he staged the whole thing to steal the credit. He deserves to die for such malice. In the presence of the emperor,

you dare to spout such nonsense. You abandoned your wife and child. Lily has never been jealous.

Lily is not a jinx. Khloe Smith and Beatatrice are actually related. I am not lying, your majesty. I opened the granaries and was praised by everyone. You know that I am so kind-hearted. How could I abandon my wife and child? Indeed, it is this Lily Smith who is cursed to kill her parents. Chloe is

a lucky star. I am willing to let her ease your majesty's burdens and protect our ethyl guard.

Beatrice also opened the granaries. Yes, your majesty. Beatatrice not only opened the granaries, but also set up a medical tent, allowing the lucky stars blessings to protect everyone and save many lives. Chloe is the lucky star. How dare they slander Lily like this? Just wait and see. I

won't let them off easily. This General Smith opened the graineries and had the lucky star treat the sick. He's truly a good person. You all flatter me. You flatter me. But General Sterling and your brother just so blatantly carried swords and barged into the palace. What exactly are you

up to? Assassination. The Sterling family has served in the military for generations and is brave and skilled in battle. His Majesty has granted me permission to carry a sword into the palace. Someone like you, who only uses the excuse of unhealed old wounds to hide like a coward,

naturally doesn't have this privilege. How dare you insult my dad? This child is really annoying. Well, that doesn't mean you can just swing your sword in the palace. Your Majesty, these two are assassins. They should be arrested immediately. If you want to touch Dad and Julian,

you'll have to get through Lily first. Lily Smith. She's protecting me. Fine. Today, I'm joining in to teach this ungrateful brat a lesson. How dare you touch Arthur Sterling's daughter? How many lives have you got? Dad, Lily is fine. Uncle Emperor is watching.

Arthur Sterling. You. You. I'll never let you off. What are you all standing around for? Go kill Arthur Sterling for me. How dare you? After all, I'm the emperor. Or are you? I wouldn't dare. I was just worried about you, your majesty,

and wanted to share your burden. Share my burden? I think you want to overstep your bounds and take my power, don't you? Reporting to your majesty. Outside the palace gates, something terrible has happened. What's the matter? Tens of thousands of people have gathered outside the palace

gates. They're holding the umbrella of 10,000 people, kneeling and refusing to rise. They're begging your majesty to pardon General Sterling. The will of the people has arrived. General, storming the palace with a sword is three crimes. Let me bring a private army with you. Nonsense.

Bringing troops is treason. If I haven't returned in an hour, you just go to the refugee camp west of the city and tell everyone the truth about me dying in the palace to save Lily. I, Arthur Sterling, don't believe in military power, only in the hearts of the people of

Ethelard. I understand. A petition from all the people. General Sterling has such prestige among the people. Of course, everyone says Lily's dad is a great hero. You praise me too much, your majesty. I have no great ski. Just did some protecting the country and comforting the people,

which is just my duty. Open the palace gates. Bring some representatives of the people into the hall. I want to hear who they are protecting and what great merits he has.

Your Majesty, we bow to you, your Majesty. We beg your Majesty to see the truth. Pardon General Sterling for his three crimes. General Sterling fought the enemy on the battlefield, protecting our homes and country. It's his duty as a general. Reward based on merit should be decided by me. Why

are you all so devoted to protecting him? Your Majesty, what we're thankful for is not General Sterling's military achievements in battle, but in the year of the great drought, when we were about to starve to death, he secretly opened the granaries to distribute grain, saving tens of

thousands of refugees. Bomb [ __ ] I was the one who opened the granaries. That's right. Exactly.

And it was me and mom who helped dad come up with the idea. This matter, we can provide evidence.

You did distribute grain, but what you distributed was just some rotten stinking grain. After everyone ate it, they were vomiting and having diarrhea. Nonsense. Then what about the nursery rhyme praising my dad's grain distribution? Wind blows. The general's grace spreads far and wide.

Mountains of white rice like a mountain. Blessings fill the hall of those who help the poor.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Exactly. This phrase is for we are praising General Sterling. No, this can't be. Absolutely impossible. Dad, your good deeds are remembered by others. Indeed, General Sterling, you also once opened the greeneries. Is that so? Why didn't you

report it? That is true. I thought relieving the people was my duty as a subject. I was unwilling to boast and claim credit. Beatatrice, you used moldy grain to buy a good reputation and even dared to steal others good deeds. Now, what do you have to say for yourself?

Your majesty, this nursery rhyme didn't name anyone. I do not know either. It's praising General Sterling. Moreover, I did open the graineries. As for the people saying they got sick, maybe they ate other things to slander me. You are shameless. Beatatrice and Arthur

Sterling's reputation is like heaven and earth. This Lucky Stars clinic is a lie on top of a lie.

One medicine bag under the name of the lucky star charged us a full $100. How many people for this $100 lost everything? When you open the medicine bag, it's all sand. Lily testifies. Dad cut open the medicine bag, there was a lot of sand inside. This is not sand. It's blessings and

it should cost that much. Everyone who drank the medicine bag not only were not cured, but because they drank sand, ruined their guts, rolled in pain, crying for help.

Nonsense. That day we clearly saved a baby's life. I am innocent. Your majesty. It's this old hag.

Quick, you tell your majesty your grandson was saved by the medicine bag. Your majesty.

Everyone says I'm scenile, but I remember clearly. That day the medicine bag General Smith gave. My grandson drank it and stopped breathing right away. It was a little lucky star who saved him.

It was Miss Lily. That day I didn't properly. Thank you, Miss Lily. It's all this old hag's fault. Miss Lily's great kindness. I'll repay you with my life. Please don't say that, ma'am. No, that's not right. These people must have been bribed by Arthur Sterling. Your Majesty,

just ask around and you'll see. Lily Smith is a notorious jinx and cursed her mother to death. How could someone like that possibly save anyone's life? Lily is not a jinx. I'm telling you this for the last time, and I mean it. Lily's mom's death has nothing to do with her. The real

reason is that you favored the mistress over the wife and caused her mom's death. Besides, so what if she's a jinx? So what if she's a lucky star? A man's career always depends on himself.

If you don't put in the effort and blame it all on a kid by playing tricks, cheating to take credit, and treating human lives like dirt, everything you got will eventually backfire on you. So what?

Chloe is a lucky star. That's an indisputable fact. That's right. Chloe is a lucky star.

That's not going to change. Looks like you all really won't quit until you hit a dead end.

Your Majesty, I'm back. Do you know what this is? Guards, first take these folks back right away.

Where is your bracelet? A few days ago, Mr. Astrologer traded a candied hawthornne stick for it. This bracelet? When Lily first arrived, there was a similar one. On the day at the observatory, I thought this bracelet was weird. Coincidentally, his majesty also thought the lucky star business

was suspicious. So, he sent me to investigate. This bracelet is one of the twin bracelets. One is yin, one is yin, and one is yang. As long as they are worn, the fates of the two will be swapped. The item from the transmigration system. How did they know about it? So,

it's true. Chloe Smith used this item on Chloe and Lily to swap their destinies. No, that's impossible. Don't think a bracelet and a madeup story will fool us. We're not that stupid.

We won't believe you. Isn't that the one Lily was wearing earlier? Wasn't it destroyed already?

This is the yin bracelet of the twin bracelets. I went to the sorcerer and found a new one. You dare to put it on? After you put on the yin bracelet, the yam bracelet will appear in ethyl guard on the hand of the most filthy and vile person.

No. Oh, the bracelet is real. And the light swap is real, too. Lily Smith shows up here. It's also because Chloe Smith wants to borrow luck again. Lily Smith, she's the real lucky star. No, definitely not. I am the lucky star. Say something. Mom,

no. Okay, now everything is clear. Beatatric Smith's family deceived the emperor. Forfeit a year's salary. I recall that 3 years ago, Beatatric had merit at the battle of the river.

I won't throw them into the dungeon for now. Drag them away. Your majesty. Your Majesty, I had nothing to do with it. It's all her. It's that vicious woman. Your Majesty. It seems this time the fact that Lily is the lucky star can't be hidden anymore.

Your Majesty looks like Ethelard's internal affairs are really something. Take him out. That guy's face looks so familiar.

Oh no, I totally forgot he was still here. The emperor considered my military achievements and didn't punish me too harshly. If he recognizes me, I'm done.

I'm not going to eat Lily since I'm her uncle Emperor. You don't have to hide it from me anymore. I already know Lily is the lucky star. I know you've been reluctant to admit it.

You didn't want Lily mixed up in court business. But now you can relax. I respect your wishes. I won't force Lily. Enough. I'm tired. You can all go now. Thank you, your majesty. The Lucky Star can't serve our country. It's a loss for Ethgard. I wonder if Arthur managed to bring

Lily back. No word from him. Don't worry. He'll be back soon. Real soon. Grandpa and Grandma. Sh.

Lily, my Lily, you're finally back. From now on, don't run off again. If you go missing, how are grandma and I supposed to live?

You dare to lie to me? How dare you lie to me? Everything I've done was for you. All for you to reach the top. Dad, don't hit mom. Dad, no. Cry. Cry. Cry.

You jinx. And you still have the nerve to cry. All the good luck in this family has been cried away by you. Beatrice. I swear everything I've done has been for you. We've still got our military achievements to lean on. His majesty, considering our military achievements,

won't continue to punish you severely. We've got a chance to turn the tables. So, what if the truth about the lucky star comes out? No matter how powerful he is, he can't beat the chosen one of the book. As long as Beatatrice still believes in me, then I'll still be the ultimate winner.

Right. I'm still alive today. All thanks to my military achievements. His majesty must never know the truth.

You too. From now on, without my permission, don't set foot in this room. Beatrice, you have to trust me. Get out.

Dad. Beatatrice. Before he exposes me, I must act first. Who? It's me. It's you. I should be asking you. 3 years ago at the Battle of the River, you were a deserter.

How did you earn military achievements and get promoted to general? I Why would I, a general, tell you all that? All you need to know is that I'm a general who earned military achievements.

As for you, I should be asking you how you survived the battle of the river 3 years ago. Didn't Ethelard almost get wiped out? When Ethel guard underestimated the enemy, they only had 300 troops, but we were almost wiped out. When I was about to die,

a wandering knight saved me and wiped out the enemy army. After being saved, I went to Valoria. Do you remember what the person who saved you looked like? Back then, I was barely conscious. I just remember his right wrist had a crescent-shaped scar. This description,

why does it feel so familiar? Seems like I've seen it somewhere before. Could it be? How do you know him? No. If it really is who I think it is, then he and Leo can't be allowed to live.

A little higher. General Smith, you really can't go in. General Smith. Oh, everyone's here.

You can go now. Yes, sir. Don't worry. I'm not here for Lily. Even knowing she's a lucky star. She's in your house. I couldn't take her anyway. I came to bring Lily something. We don't need your junk. You, when you

were riding high, couldn't wait to trample my son underfoot. Now that you've fallen, you shamelessly cling to us and hang around again. You'll only corrupt the kids. Madam, don't call me that, old hag. I'm still a general no matter what. You have no right to be yelling and screaming at me.

What are you barking at? Julian Sterling's temper is indeed compared to Arthur Sterling's harder to deal with. Julian, wow, your swordsmanship is so good.

Misunderstanding. I'm here to deliver Clara's belongings. This is what mom used to lull Lily to sleep. This is what mom couldn't bear to eat and left for Lily. This is from last year's New Year celebration which mom cut by hand. And these

would Beatatrice be so kind. Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Mr. Smith. Take it easy.

Look at you two. What are you thinking? I think this box is too heavy.

Better let General Sterling hold it. Besides, the things inside are so important. It's Arthur Sterling who saved Leo. It really was Arthur Sterling. I've been living under Arthur Sterling's military achievements.

Get out. Bro, did he do anything to you? Let me see. It's nothing. Guards, throw him out. Arthur Sterling, even if you were the one who 3 years ago at the Battle of the River wiped out the enemy, so what? I've used this achievement for 3 years. It

rightfully belongs to me. As long as you and Leo are both gone, I'll have no worries behind me.

Leo Arthur Sterling, you two can take this secret and go to hell. The chosen one. The chosen one. Is that so? He sneaked into the envoy's attendance room.

Beatatrice. Oh, Beatatrice. I want to see what exactly you're up to. Your Majesty, I saw Arthur Sterling with my own eyes, exchanging letters with Leo from Valoria.

The two of them have been secretly colluding, leaking the secrets of Athlard. Your Majesty, I wouldn't dare do that. Valoria has no vicious ambitions. This item was indeed found in Leo's bundle. Loser. At this point, you still won't give in. The content of these letters is indeed

revealing Ethgard's border defense secrets, and it is indeed General Sterling's handwriting. How dare you, Arthur Sterling? Have I been too good to you that you would commit such a grave mistake? Uncle Emperor, let her in. Uncle Emperor, Dad would never do such a thing.

Someone must be framing him. Enough. If you came to plead for Arthur Sterling, forget it. My mind is made up. Lily will find evidence to prove Dad is innocent.

It's okay. It's okay. Lily Smith is a lucky star, but she's not a deity. We set this trap with great effort. How could she possibly find evidence? But this Lily Smith always has some tricks up her sleeve. What if she actually finds something? Pass on my

order. Throw Arthur Sterling and Leo into the dungeon. The others will discuss another day.

Guess between you and me, we'll fall into hell first. Why? Why? Even now, does he still look down on people?

I can't leave any loose ends. Sterling. Arthur Sterling. How did you get here? Weren't you locked up? If I didn't do this, how could I expose your scheme?

How is she? Is she okay? Did she get hurt? Lily's fine. Don't worry, Dad. You You guys set this up. All of this was thanks to Lily's reminder that day.

What's wrong, Lily? Why did he lift dad's sleeve? It was as if he was looking for something.

Send someone to watch Beatatrice. See what the hell she's up to. As long as dad is safe, that's all that matters.

For years, he's claimed his old wounds haven't healed, and he can't go to battle. But now, he seems perfectly fine. Your Majesty, don't listen to Arthur's nonsense.

I was just passing by and came to see Lily Smith passing by with a knife. Not to mention the fact that you, her own father, could kick your own flesh and blood out of the house. Why would you

come to see her? There's only one explanation. The one who framed me and Leo is you. You heard Lily was going to help me find evidence. And considering her status as the lucky star, you were afraid she might actually find something, so you tried to silence her.

Words are not proof. Your Majesty, don't believe him. I have eyes. I can see for myself. I have no quarrel with you. We were comrades once. Why are you trying to harm me?

Watch out. Your Majesty, he is sinister and ruthless. He is completely unfit to be a general. Moreover, he was a deserter back then. I beg you to immediately revoke his title. Wait, what did you say? He was a deserter. No, don't listen to him. He's lying. I command you gag him. My lords,

do you still remember the battle of the river 3 years ago? My lord, in that battle, our ethlgard army because the commander underestimated the enemy was almost completely wiped out. It was General Smith who single-handedly wiped out 300 elite enemy troops. This is also the battle for

which your majesty made an exception to promote General Smith, the one that made his name.

You're saying he wiped out the enemy? So, it was you who stole my benefactor's achievements?

No wonder you wanted your majesty to get rid of me. Wait, what are you talking about? What does all this mean, your majesty? 3 years ago, at the Battle of the River, our army, because of underestimating the enemy, was nearly annihilated. But Beatress ran off. She became a deserter.

After Ethogard's great defeat, when I was about to die, I was saved by a wandering knight. He also in passing wiped out the enemy. But I never expected that his credit would be falsely claimed by these sewer rats.

So, I've been deceived for so long. I was deceived by a deserter for 3 years. And I even made him a general. I've been played for a fool. You are extremely audacious. I'll kill you. Your Majesty. Your Majesty. Please don't. Your Majesty. Your Majesty. Beatatrice couldn't

have assassinated Lily Smith. It must be Arthur Sterling colluding with others to set this up. He was caught for treason and wants to drag Beatrice down with him. The book clearly predicted that Beatrice is the chosen one. The plot must not collapse. I can't let anything happen to her.

It seems you still don't know what happened. Then I'll tell you your dear husband is nothing but a deserter. The military achievements from 3 years ago were not his at all. The book predicted that the chosen one is a general named Smith. If the military achievements from 3 years ago are fake,

doesn't that mean Beatatric's title of general is also fake? Nothing is impossible. The fact is Beatatric deceived everyone. When my benefactor swings a sword on his wrist bone, there is a crescent-shaped scar. A crescent-shaped scar. His build is quite similar to General Sterling's.

Could it be? Benefactor. It's you. It's really, Dad. Great. Good. So, the one earning all those military achievements has been right beside me. Three years ago, General Sterling was wandering the world. Perhaps on the road, he saved and killed so many people that he doesn't remember. You seem

to know General Sterling's story pretty well. Your Majesty, actually, everyone privately. Regards General Sterling as their idol, so of course they know his experiences. Not long after the Battle of the River, General Sterling returned to the Sterling residence and followed

old General Sterling into battle, earning military achievements, and was appointed General by your majesty. So, Dad is really amazing. No, this can't be. He's been deceiving you all. The chosen one is General Smith. Beatatric's title of General cannot be fake. He is fake. He is not the chosen one.

Take this deceitful couple away. Get them out of my sight. I want them to spend the rest of their lives in prison. As for Chloe Smith, send her to a civilian orphanage. She'll be taken care of.

All of you were tricked by him. He doesn't go by Smith. Not Smith. Arthur Sterling received the decree.

At the Battle of the River, General Sterling made great contributions. Today I appoint you as the defender general. Awesome. Dad. Dad. Come on. Dad. Receive the decree. Lily, come to your uncle.

I receive the decree. Now, Lily, I'll also give you lots of good stuff. Thank you, Uncle Emperor.

I'm lucky to have you. It's Ethgard's blessing. Congrats, General Sterling. Congrats, Miss Lily. Fight the commotion. What's going on? You haven't heard? 3 years ago at the Battle of the River, the one who turned the tide and wiped out the enemy was not Beatatric at all,

but General Sterling. What? General Sterling? Oh my goodness. General Sterling is indeed Ethgard's chosen warrior. General Sterling.

Pay respects to the defender general. Mom and dad, don't scare me like that. Bro, next time you go to the battlefield, take me with you.

Your leg? My leg has been fully healed. Lily has completely healed me. A good man should be like you, serving the country. Before my leg injury, I also went to the battlefield with you and fought the enemy together. My swordsmanship is also good. That's true. Lily has seen it. Good, bro.

Actually, Lily also has something she wants to tell everyone. Lily wants to use her identity as the lucky star to protect Ethel guard, just like dad, to contribute to the country. Lily, have you thought it through? If everyone knows you're the lucky star and treats you as a tool

for seeking wealth and luck, what if they exploit you? General Sterling. Lily trusts everyone.

Good. Since this is what Lily wants to do, then Dad will definitely support you.

What? You You're saying Lily is willing to become my lucky star of Effard to protect our Ethel guard? Yes.

Lily, you're a blessing to Ethyl and a blessing to me, too. Don't worry. I will never let Lily become a tool. Everything will be as Lily wishes. I believe my people won't either.

Thanks to Lily, Ethogard is blessed. Truly blessed. In year 321 of Ethgard, the border was invaded. Arthur Sterling and Julian Sterling were appointed in a time of crisis. By order of the emperor, they led troops to the Iron Pass to fight the invaders.

Lily Smith guarded the rear for Arthur Sterling, using the power of the Lucky Star to protect Ethelgard.

She is indeed our lucky star of Epilgard. By the grace of heaven, the emperor decrees that Arthur Sterling, brave and skilled in battle, has protected the borders and secured the people. He has repeatedly achieved military merits, keeping Ethelard safe. Therefore, we grant him the royal surname and appoint him

Grand General of Ethgard. He is granted the royal surname Smith to enjoy supreme glory.

Bro, hurry and receive the decree. The royal surname. That's a huge honor. General Smith, please accept the decree. I accept the decree. Julian Sterling, following his brother, Arthur Sterling, has merits in killing the enemy. He is specially appointed general of divine

martial arts, granted $10,000 and several bolts of fine silks. I accept the decree. Great. Julian finally realized his ambition. Miss Lily, smart and prudent with the power of the lucky star, protected all of Ethelard. Today, she is crowned Princess Serenity.

Arthur Sterling's mother is titled Lady of the Third Rank. His father, Old General Sterling, is promoted to the second rank. Thank you, Your Majesty. My lords, please don't rise. Don't rush. It's not over yet. Who else? Lily's mother, Clara, gave birth to the lucky star Lily Smith,

and her contribution cannot be overlooked. She is postumously titled lady of the first rank. End of decree. Mom, did you hear that? Nobody's forgotten you. Everyone remembers you.

Lily, on behalf of mom. Thanks, Uncle Emperor. He's not even a smith. He's not a smith. He's not the chosen one.

I have the chosen one in my hands. I can still turn things around. I can still make a comeback.

The military merits are mine. They're mine. By the grace of heaven, the emperor decrees that Arthur Sterling, brave and skilled in battle, having repeatedly achieved military merits to protect Ethelgard's peace and safety. Is now granted the royal name of Ethylgard and

appointed as Grand General of Ethgard, receiving the royal surname Smith to enjoy supreme glory.

You got to be kidding me. No way. This can't be. I don't buy it. You're all liars. Liars. Let me out. I need to see Arthur Sterling to find out the truth. So, let me out. Stay right there. General

Smith's got no time for you. No. No way. How can he be a Smith? How can he have that surname? So, Arthur Sterling is the real chosen one. Nope. God, you can't do this to me.

You fake. You loser. You destroyed everything. That crazy woman. You swapped the lucky star. You ruined me. Die, Clara. In the next life, I'll find you first.
