Then Morrigan continue to speak.

"After that, the guard trained me to use my ability and maximize it. He also told me about Haki and trained me to use it. Especially the Kenbunshoku Haki which is very useful to cover my disability.... But sadly, about ten years later the guard passed away from hard diseases.... Three years later, when I'm eighteen, another disaster happened. When I'm home from picking fruits in the forest, I saw my house crowded. And I saw the old maid laid bloodied and not breathing. Then I'm screamed and cried because of shock and didn't even realized that the crowd fall unconscious."

"Your Haoushoku Haki awakened?"

".... Yes. I just realized it after a while and stopped crying. After that, when few of the villagers conscious, I asked them who did it. And they answered that the Princes who did it. They said that the Princes came to this small village because of a rumour of a blind but very beautiful village girl. And they intended to have the girl.... But nobody knows that the girl was a Princess and their stepsister, me. And they also didn't recognize the old maid because it's been too long and we're never really cared when still in the palace.... Because they didn't find me and the old maid didn't want to tell them where I go, they killed her and left.... Since then, I am alone...."

Hearing Morrigan's melancholic tone, Lepus stretch his hand to hug Morrigan to make her realized that now she's not alone anymore. And she didn't rejected Lepus this time.

".... After I buried the old maid, I swore to revenge. But I can't do it recklessly because Ventwill Kingdom is an WG-affiliated State. So, I stayed in the village to hone myself further by keep training my devil fruit ability and my Haki. And after seven years, I successfully awakened my devil fruit ability and mastered the Haoushoku Haki.... After that, I left the small village and go to the Capital. I live there while hiding my true identity by working as a librarian and always paid attention about news and informations about the palace.... And three years later, I finished my preparation. One night, I sneak into the palace to do my revenge. And in one of the Prince's room, I found a secret hidden basement. And in there, I saw the King, Princes, Queen, Princesses, and others did a very disturbing and disgusting scene. And they intended to do that too to a recently rumoured beautiful blind librarian, me. And from their talk, apparently now they've suspected me as the long lost Third Princess. So it's enough to makes me more determined to kill them."

Lepus and Olive who heard that were also very astonished and surprised! From what Morrigan told them, they realized what the Royal of Ventwill intended to do to her!

They didn't think Morrigan had such bad memories!

If molested by other people probably quite a lot of such cases. However, what happened to Morrigan was very unusual! She was almost molested by her own blood family! Even though Morrigan is blind, she is still a girl with dignity!

Lepus and Olive are even more guilty for 'forcing' Morrigan. Especially knowing this is her 'first time'!

They both then apologized to Morrigan.

""Sorry....""

".... Forget it. What happened already happened."

Then, Morrigan continued to tell her story.

".... But, when I'm done knocked them out with Haoushoku Haki and then 'crippled' them with my devil fruit's awakened ability which is blood circulations and metabolism manipulation, a mysterious masked and cloaked man appeared. He found me and straightly attacked me without asking. Fortunately, I could avoid his attack. Then we fought for quite long, and I successfully defeated him. But I was injured quite badly too and forced to escape because my consciousness is fading.... A week later, I'm in another city and in the newspaper I saw my wanted poster with bounty of 184 millions and article of incident which said that I massacred the King and Princes of Ventwill.... After a few years in fugitives, I was finally found and caught by Admiral Aokiji then brought to Impel Down."

""....""

Then, Morrigan turned around and then looked at Lepus seriously and said.

".... I actually don't really mind to be your lover or wife. Because as I said before, I already 'saw' your heart and I could believe in you. That's why even though I'm angry, I'm not really against it when you do me before.... But from now on, I don't want you to force me to 'do that'. Understand?"

Hearing Morrigan's statement, Lepus was finally able to feel relieved. That means Morrigan forgave him.

Yeah. If Morrigan truly against it, she should be able to use her ability to escape or even attack us. But she didn't.

Lepus then looked at Morrigan and said to her.

"I understand.... I promise to ask your permission first if I want to 'do that' with you."

Seeing Lepus looking at her seriously and promisingly, Morrigan nodded slightly in acceptance.

After that, the three of them slept soundly.
