Character Backstory

Blood Blossom

Dying. It was something one would not come to fear after experiencing it many times, death itself would have lost its meaning.

Expecting a life full of love and happiness, the truth was harsh to her, there was no denying it, Ilya was abandoned. It was much more accurate to say Ilya never has the love and happiness she so desires since the beginning.

Stabbed. Burnt. Poisoned. Dismemberment. Devoured. Executed.

It could be said that she experienced all kinds of ways to die. And the saddest part of it was, all of her death was caused by the hands of those she loved. In each life, she thought she could do better and earn back the love she so desires. Yet everything was the same, regardless of her effort.

Especially Lisbeth who will always steal the things that belonged to her. Even her fiancé was swayed by the 'innocence' exhibited by the sweet Lisbeth. It was always her, the center of attention. Under that pretentious façade was a greedy viper. Everyone was fooled by her false innocence, even Ilya.

In her first life, she was used as a steppingstone, only to be betrayed by Lisbeth in the end. It was at that moment she knows about the true face of Lisbeth.

She who had everything, the status and wealth as the sole heir to the Lenard family, treated Lisbeth with sincerity. She offered her unconditional aid when her father decided to adopt her, though what rewarded her was death.

Lisbeth was the cause of her agony, turning her friends and families against her. Ilya was denounced and cast away, she was meant to be a sacrifice for the benefit of Lisbeth. Regardless of what she does, everyone would eventually fall for Lisbeth, she would still end up being the one who was thrown away. Again and again.

And each time, she would be reincarnated. For a reason which she does not know. Each time she dies, she would wake up and begin the day on a specific day.

In her last life, facing betrayal yet again. The father who abandoned her, the brother who chose Lisbeth over her, her fiancé that never liked her, not even an ounce of affection.

And eventually, her heart closed. She no longer expects or hopes for any affection from those who would constantly betray her.

She was alone in this world. And she was vengeful. Before her last breath on her last life, she partakes in a slaughter, killing all those she hated with her hand. The power she emitted was enough to wipe out the country.

Her fury was not to be denied.

As her life burns away, she has decided to show them despair in her next life. No longer will she has any hope for them, there will only be suffering for her enemies.

In her new life, casting away her family name, Ilya will be the one who will stand at the top, those who owe her will bow down to her might.

The Queen of Thorns has returned.

Retribution is coming.
