“I wish you had never been born.”

Because her deceased birth mother was a commoner, Fiora, a count’s daughter, grew up subjected to verbal abuse and beatings. She believed this terrible environment would end once she married and left her family home. However, her engagement was broken off for an unreasonable reason, and to make matters worse, even the sapling, a memento of her mother, was nearly burned down.

“Was it you who awakened me, Master?”

The moment she tried to protect the sapling from the flames, a beautiful young man appeared. The young man, who referred to Fiora as his Master, was none other than the embodiment of the World Tree, an existence akin to a god that sustains this world. From that day forward, Fiora’s life, now imbued with immense power as the World Tree’s Master, would change completely.
