## Summary

> You're lovelier than I expected, stepmother!
>
> - Henrik Indridson greeting Giovinetta

Giovinetta recognizes the man laughing at her question about food growing on trees as Henrik Indridson, the eldest son of her fiancé, who had accompanied the marriage delegates to bring Lord Indridson's portrait. Henrik asks for permission to show Giovinetta where food actually comes from, which Giovinetta assents to after Griselda's initial protest.

> I was always aware of my ignorance. While Henrik's words may have been common sense to anyone else, I was fascinated by what he was saying. People are at the center of all actions. And the consequences of those actions come back to us.
>
> - Giovinetta thinking to herself

In the kitchen, Giovinetta is stunned by the liveliness as the first time seeing "that breathtaking sight," finally understanding that her dishes were prepared by people. Henrik further shocks Giovinetta when he says weapons, buildings, and other materials are built by people as well. He also mentions that intangible attributes, like renown, are also built by people, making it an honor for him to become part of the Valdemar legacy. Giovinetta rues that she had not done anything to enhance the Valdemar name, and parts from Henrik after expressing her gratitude that he is a part of the Indridson family.

> I, Giovinetta Valdemar, am a weak creature who... has never accomplished anything.
>
> - Giovinetta thinking to herself

Walking through the grandeur of Gustave Castle, Giovinetta reflects on her trifling existence after her encounter with Henrik, and longs for Johannes's company. Meanwhile, Johannes and his team had been searching for the priests on behalf of his father's orders, only finding the damaged bell rung for Johannes's exorcism. After he departs reporting this to the Duke, Henrik brazenly comments that Johannes's is like a "helpless child" next to his father, who instead asks Henrik if he had met Giovinetta yet. Duke Gustave tells Henrik to take Giovinetta with him immediately to Indridson, and Henrik fiendishly grins.

## Trivia

* Duke Gustave asks a nearby maid to burn the rug that Johannes dripped water over, which otherwise looks fine.
* Although Giovinetta is ignorant, she is highly perceptive and quickly adapts with the knowledge she gains.

## Chapter 15

## Summary

> There was no way of knowing if John would be freed from that thing, or if he'd even survive the exoricsm. And... what about that wish you made in front of the coffin, Giovinetta? What would happen to that? .
>
> - Giovinetta fearing Johannes's imminent exorcism

Giovinetta is shocked that Winfried plan to exorcise Johannes, considering that he embodies the Devil. The bell rings across Gustave castle, signifying the beginning of the ritual. Outside of Johannes room, his soldiers are clustered together as Winfried makes his way to join his fellow priests from Redempta Church preparing the exorcism on a handcuffed Johannes.
Throughout the night, Giovinetta spends the night in agitation until Griselda informs her next morning that the exorcism went successfully after Johannes had no seizures. Winfried bids farewell to the four priests as they begin journeying back to Redempta Church. One priests remarks on how unusually amenable Johannes was to the exorcism, when they are frightened by abruptly losing control of their horses. Johannes, transformed into the Devil, devours them. Giovinetta says that the priests were never found.

## Trivia

* The bell that is used to signal the exorcism is also the same one priests use before walking through the forest to ward of demons.

## Duchess

To Duchess Valdemar: *"I don't quite understand what you're talking about, mother… but it seems that this entire time, you thought that I'd cursed you… I was six when you denounced me as the devil. And that same day, you locked Anette up in this very tower. I was so busy trying to process what had happened that I ended up not being able to understand anything. Even now, I still don't understand. Beg all you want. I have nothing more to say. (…) Mother, even up to the very end, you're so…"*

After being kissed by Anette, he is frozen out of his mother's warmth. She treats him as a stranger who poses a danger to Anette's chastity and thus happiness.[?] "If you truly cherish my daughter, your *sister*," [you should find a way to die, or at least leave her be]. He tries to reconcile with her, and despite putting on a brave front, her toxic words and callousness towards him does affect him emotionally. Until her death, she holds firm that he is not her son in anything but name.

## Summary

Giovinetta is disturbed by Winfried's revelation that the Devil was a curse upon the Ducommun family, who further remarks that the rumors surrounding the Devil's unique nature and creation as a corpse must hold some truth, which revolts Giovinetta. Winfried agrees that the reasons for cursing the family are unclear, but he emphasizes how all of the direct descendants of the Ducommuns met unfortunate ends, with the last remaining members being Giovinetta, Johannes, and Winfried. Repulsed, Giovnetta vomits at the possibility that she had coupled with a demonic corpse whose purpose is to inflict the misery upon the Ducommun family. Winfried disgustedly leaves her and while returning to his room, he conjectures that Johannes had stolen the dagger from Giovinetta when he hears the same man's screams emanating from within the castle.

> You're actually trying to suppress the forbidden sins of your relationship! John, I knew it. You're no different from me.
>
> - Winfried enjoying Johannes's pained screams

Winfried asks a nearby guard when they will stop torturing the prisoner, who sheepishly confides that it is actually Johannes's cries due to his ongoing seizures. Winfried delightfully concludes that Johannes's agonized screams are not from these seizures, but Johannes's discovery that the beloved token he had stolen from Giovinetta was missing. After Giovinetta returns enervated to her room with Griselda's help, her sleep is disrupted by the Devil who is partially transformed with Johannes's face, who begins its amatory advances. Giovinetta attempts to ignore it but awakens to the Devil's pleads for her to look back him, and sees Johannes's face.

Giovinetta and Johannes kiss, as the former is charmed by Johannes setting his sword aside on the bed. Giovinetta admires Johannes's physique as she begins caressing him, noticing Johannes's features slowly return to normal.

> We crossed over that last forbidden line. There was no hesitation. We were impatient. We even ignored what had driven us apart - our secret despairs.
>
> - Giovinetta and Johannes accepting their forbidden desire for each other

After spending the night together, Giovinetta walks around the castle in the morning after they crossed the "last forbidden line" while thinking back on her first marriage. She silently prays to the Devil to let Johannes be free.
In his room, Winfried asks Griselda whether Giovinetta has an illicit lover. Griselda dismisses this accusation, claiming that Giovinetta is a proper woman. Winfried instructs Griselda to closely watch Giovinetta, sardonically commenting that a "fair face may hide a foul heart."

## Trivia

* Johannes placing his sword aside to embrace Giovinetta is an act of surrendering a knight's pride and honor.

## Summary

"[She] came into the possession of the coffins and thereby made her first wish: 'I pray for a successor to be born of the Ducommun name for the Duke of Gustave.' Yet that wish conceived the devil, growing day by day, without an umbilical cord, in the duchess' womb. Ten months later, the devil emerged from his 'mother's' womb along with his 'sister'. That's when the duchess made her second wish: 'Please… Give me a beautiful son… A son I can show the duke right now, a son who will look and grow up just like any other human… And so, her second wish was granted. That hideous devil with the limbs of a monster, had become enveloped in a beautiful human shell that resembled his fake sister. The human-looking devil was doted on as the precious heir of the Duke of Gustave, his fake father carrying the baby in his arms as he presented him to relative after relative. And he received prayers from his fake mother, and grew on the milk of his fake sister's nanny. And so, the devil, who was rather like a living corpse, began to grow alongside his fake sister… Until eventually, the devil developed consciousness. It was on *that day* that the duchess made her last wish: 'My son will become the Gustave successor, won't he?'" "From the first wish came a devilish distortion."

Marionette

> There was a young squire who couldn't stand the sweltering heat. He looked like a marionette tangled up in its strings. I pitied that poor boy jerking around uncontrollably there on the ground.
>
>

Returning to her room at night, Giovinetta and Griselda happens upon the knights who are struggling to pin down a thrashing Johannes. Griselda tries calming her lady, that it's just a seizure caused by trauma, but Giovinetta is not convinced. Once the screaming ceases, she pays Johannes a visit.

## Summary

Distant howling

The Knights

Returning to her room that night, Giovinetta hears a distant scream. Griselda beckons Giovinetta to return to her chamber, when they see knights rush into Johannes' room, where they fiercely struggle to pin him down. Griselda tries to calm Giovinetta down by assuring her it is just another seizure, manifesting from Johannes' years of combat since boyhood that surely must have traumatized him. Giovinetta is not fully convinced by the nature of Johannes' agonized screaming.

John's room

Once the screaming ceases, she knocks on his door to inquire about his wellbeing. Johannes greets her with stony silence, and Giovinetta pleas for him to give any response. Just as an exasperated Giovinetta despairs that she will not be able to avoid the returning guard, Johannes suddenly pulls her in into his room. Giovinetta briefly rejoices in Johannes' arms after years of seperation, reminding her of their childhood days. Her joy is brusquely greeted with Johannes' demanding question as to why she came to his room.

## Trivia

* Johannes' seizure is depicted as strong enough to snap ropes binding his wrist.
* This is the first time Giovinetta and Johannes have met privately since her last marriage.

Live and suffer eternally with the woman you so loved and gave everything to. You stole all my hopes and laid waste on them. And so, atone for your sins by living in that* noble *prison, suffering every second. My boy, Idris."*

## Johannes

To Johannes: *"Who are you calling 'father'? Don't speak such nasty words. A* thing *like you could never be my son. You're just an intricate machine designed to act like a human. Half of this human life you're masquerading in belongs to my son, Idris. The other half belongs to that woman. So don't you dare pretend to believe you really exist. (…) Had it not been for her wish… You wouldn't have been able to keep living that facade of a life. You're a void. You were merely made for* that woman *who killed my son and me… A void created so that my son's lover could have the cruelest, most cumbersomely long end."*

## Chapter 4

**Chapter 4** of the Webtoon was published on Ridibooks in South-Korea, and on Manta in English. See here for a full overview of all media related to this chapter.

## Synopsis

> The sounds of flesh rending and bones cracking… his moans as he tried not to scream… My brother Johannes and his blue eyes were nowhere to be found. That thing. There was a *devil* in his place.
>
> - Giovinetta's horror at Johannes's transformation

The twins bicker back and forth, until the usually cheerful Johannes gives Giovinetta a stern look. Feeling scorned, she accepts this as a firm rejection. That's until Johannes' seizures act up again, and he begins painstakingly transforming into a devil in front of her eyes. She rushes to escape, but "it" shuts the door before she's even able to step outside.

## Summary

Johannes commands Giovinetta to return to her room, which she rebuffs out of concern for his wellbeing. He chastises her instead for not bringing Griselda with her to visit a man's chambers, especially late in the evening. Giovinetta retorts that it was Johannes who ultimately pulled her into his room, and Johannes looks back at her with a "cold, intense fury shining in his eyes," in harsh contrast to his usual cheerful demeanor. Feeling scorned by Johannes' gaze as a "firm rejection", Giovinetta internally chides herself for her childlike obstinancy.

Suddenly, Johannes' seizures return, and he begs Giovinetta to stay away as he begins to painstakingly transform before her eyes, trying his hardest to keep his screams under wraps. Terrified by Johannes' grisly transformation, Giovinetta attempts to flee but the devil's gnarly claw hinders her escape by shutting the door with the weight of its hand.

Petrified, Giovinetta silently recalls her mother telling her that although praying to the Ducommun's devil could grant her any wish, the consequences would be "dire and perverse". The towering devil begins wrapping its thick tail around Giovinetta, as she remorsefully comprehends that she should have prayed for her fiancé, Lord Indridson's death instead, surmising that the devil is granting her desire to avoid their marriage by killing her.

## Trivia

* Johannes appears to have just finished one of his seizures, when he pulls Giovinetta into his room, based on how out of disheveled he looks.
* Despite appearing generally timid, Giovinetta does let her stubborn side out out in front of her brother, as demonstrated when she says she'll only go back if he'll take her back to her back to her room.

## Summary

> You always, *always* pretended not to know... while that pretty face, those pretty lips rejected me...ah, Giovinetta... am I not better... than that old man? So... smile for me.
>
> - The Devil sensually assaulting Giovinetta

Being held in the Devil's arms, Giovientta looks up and sees that "without a doubt" it was her brother, Johannes, who asks why she is constantly teasing and rejecting him when she enjoyed their first coupling together. Disoriented and confused about Johannes's claim, Giovinetta is pinned on the bed and begs the Devil to stop, crying out Johannes name.
Almost immediately, a horror-stricken Johannes returns to his human form and asks what he is is doing in her room. Relieved Johannes is human again, Giovinetta faints. She painfully awakens in a steaming bathtub to Johannes's concerned look, who apologizes to her. Giovinetta asks Johannes for reassurance that it is really him, not the Devil, before beckoning Johannes to hold her in the bathtub.

> For the longest time, I talked to walls. Walls made of stone. Their indifference a result of my station. So when John finally heard my voice... and became himself again, it felt like I had been waiting a thousand years to meet someone who would listen to me.
>
> - Giovinetta's elation being held by Johannes

Giovinetta dwells on her years of solitary confinement in her room, and her joy at being embraced by Johannes after their ordeal, finally feeling accepted. Flushed, Giovinetta turns to a worried Johannes to confess that she likes him and asks for his protection before kissing him.

	+ **Chronovision**: Kretschmann's magic eye allows him to see all of time. It also enables temporal presence to some degree as the eye's incomplete state traps him "...in the turbulence of time."
	+ **Precognition**: With his chronovision, Kretschmann can predict the future. However, this ability appears to be flawed, as he predicted that the Duchess would die in seven days, but she actually lived for an additional five days.
	+ **Superhuman Senses**: The eye grants a keen sense of detection, as Kretchmann was able to hear and feel John's presence without seeing him. This ability appears to render him a bit delirious, prompting him to speak into "thin air" from an outsider's perspective.

## Chapter 20

**Chapter 20** of the Webtoon was published on Ridibooks in South-Korea. See here for a full overview of all media related to this chapter.

## Summary

Giovinetta is bedridden again, due to the monthly "blessing" that God gives to women (their menstrual cycle). Griselda attempts to gently rouse Giovinetta to prepare her dress for the banquet celebrating her marriage with Lord Indridson the following day. She deplores her pain and remains unmoved until Griselda mentions Johannes will also attend. Jealous at the prospect of Johannes meeting elegant noblewomen, Giovinetta commands Griselda to bring the entirety of her mother's jewelry and dresses.

> I thought he was a helpless child when he was in front of the grand duke... but I suppose he can be quite daring.
>
> - Giovinetta thinking to herself

The Duke of Valdemar sits centerfold in the banquet hall next to his son-in-law to be, Henrik Indridson. To the their astonishment, Johannes finally enters clad in armor with his armed soldiers. Henrik is suprised at Johannes's boldness, comprehending that he is expressing discontentment with his father for essentially selling Giovinetta to the Indridson family for a sum. The Duke artificially beams at Johannes, while clutching him closely to hiss at Johannes's impudence for this show of intimidation. Simultaneously, they announce Giovinetta's entry, whose beauty enthralls everyone present.

> But my eyes were fixed on one person who stood just beyond those who had left their seats to greet me. "Look at me, John. I wanted you to see me like this. Look at only me. I'm right here."
>
> - Giovinetta locking eyes with Johannes

Giovinetta discreetly notes her own discomfort at being surrounded by so many people for the first time since her first marriage years ago. She meets Johannes's eyes, who is flustered by her appearance. However, Giovinetta is unpleasantly startled by Sir Bartheon's clamoring, one of Johannes's knights. As Giovinetta yearns to cringe away from Bartheon's kissing her hand, comparing him to Johannes's gentle manner, she only hears the banquet's guests cheering the knight on for "appreciating" a woman's beauty, reminding her of the mortifying public consummation ritual for her first marriage.

> That day, the people outside the curtains... cheered and sighed as they watched my husband and me. Those people weren't concerned about the feelings of a young girl shaking in fear.
>
> - Giovinetta's deja vu during Bartheon's "chivalric" gesture

Just as Giovinetta becomes more frantic about removing Bartheon, she sees him swiftly being crushed by an enraged Johannes.

## Trivia

* Giovinetta mentions she wants to attend the ball looking beautifully as she was often unkempt when Johannes appeared due to her illnesses.

## Setting

"It is a fantasy worldview with the motif of the Middle Ages. It is difficult to determine specifically which era or region the motif is based on, as it takes the form of inferring the world view through the overall atmosphere, the psychology of the characters, and the way of thinking. Giovineta (Italy), Ducomin, Gustave, Gasconne (France), Waldemar (Denmark), Griselda, Siclinde, Johannes, Winfried, Dietrich, Kretschmann (Germany), Alyona (Russia), etc. It is not possible to specify the culture by mixing the words of the country, the name of the person, and the place name. From a historical point of view, the war is mainly carried out on horseback, and there is no mention of gunpowder, the illiteracy rate of the nobles and knights is high, and no tableware is used. It is treated as an outdated superstition, the expression 'Suicide Forest' derived from Dante's new song is used, and elements outside the times are added, such as the existence of cigarettes. Although there are not many fantasy elements, it creates a mystical atmosphere with only one material, the devil. (…) Although the writing skills are considerable, the likes and dislikes differ considerably because it is close to a memoir and the narrative proceeds with respect."

## Summary

> Kretschmann, perhaps... the true manifestation of the Devil wasn't its repulsive appearance, but rather the ability to incite others to reveal the darkest parts within them.
>
> - Giovinetta deliberating

After Giovinetta confesses her feelings for Johannes, he emotionally apologizes to Giovinetta and reciprocates her kiss in the wooden bath. Giovinetta awakens later that evening in her room to find Johannes huddled by the window, and invites Johannes to join her in bed. She asks whether Johannes might have another seizure, which he declines and divulges that during those episodes he had truly believed they were nightmares. Feeling remorseful about subconsciously forcing himself onto Giovinetta, the latter asks whether Johannes despises her because he feels spurned by Giovinetta. Johannes reflects that he doesn't hate her and wouldn't understand, but his hesitation sends Giovinetta into a fury and Johannes throws her onto the bed, which unexpectedly delights and calms her down.

> We embraced as if we were trying to merge into one body. I desperately wished for that moment to last forever, but my wish wasn't granted.
>
> - Giovinetta and Johannes spending their first night together without the Devil

Johannes tenderly comments that she hasn't changed since childhood, and Giovinetta confesses that she missed him, even when he was violating her as the Devil. The next morning, Giovinetta is startled awake by Griselda, who asks if she drew a bath and accidentally smoldered her dress in the hearth last evening. Feverish, Giovinetta looks on as Griselda asks if she is keeping something from her.

## Chapter 84

**Chapter 84** of the Webtoon was published on Ridibooks in South-Korea (2022-03-18). See here for a full overview of all media related to this chapter.

## Synopsis

Kretschmann speaks out into thin air to Idris and John: He explains his precognitient abilities, the purpose of John's creation and how to break the curse. On his own he recalls his mother's words six years ago, and questions his existence, if all his feelings truly is a void like Kretschmann claims. Five days later, the duchess dies, and before the limestone in the ossuary dries, Anette's wedding is held in the capital.

## Summary

"My son will become the Gustave successor, won't he?"Our community needs more information on this page! Can you help out?**Comment:** *Thumbnail images.*
To Johannes: *"Johannes Val… Valdemar! Johannes Valdemar! What an elite name. That name imprisons you, doesn't it? Yes, yes… I hope you suffer. Live and suffer eternally with the woman you so loved and gave everything to. You stole all my hopes and laid waste on them. And so, atone for your sins by living in that* noble *prison, suffering every second. My boy, Idris."*

Kretschmann continues speaking deliriously to Idris and John, before feeling exasperated about speaking out into thin air: "I'm the one who's alive! I'm the one who exists in the flesh! And yet here I am, talking to the void! I must look insane!" Confused, John asks about his left eye, to which he explains his precognitient abilities. He explains how "Johannes" is nothing but a void meant to make Giovinetta suffer "the cruelest, most cumbersomely long end." Kretschmann also explains the purpose of the curse and how to break it.

Johannes recalls his mothers words six years ago, and realizes this was what she had meant: That his death, the devil's death, would mark the end of the curse. He question why he was born at all, if all he feels is nothing but a void like Kretschmann claims.

Five days later, the duchess passes away and John hopes her soul is at peace, wherever it is right now. "Her passing seemed like a trivial event in the light of the war, and before the limestone had fully dried on the ossuary, Valdemar had arranged a wedding procession and proceeded to the capital." There in a church, Anette calls for him to lead her to her groom on her wedding day.

Baltiysky

*Baltiysky*, the original school ship, is a *Moskva*-Class carrier commissioned in 1985 as a joint training vessel to be used by the Leningrad Naval School to teach young students the decks of Soviet boats. Designed to be easily surveyed by helicopters as students performed runs, it could easily be used for day trips or for expeditions in the Baltic Sea up to 1 week.

## Baltiysky

### Year of Commission

1985 (Into LNA service), 2005 (Into MGCS service)

Today, the ship operates under the Naval Studies program. It is only used as a familiarization vessel, and has not been modified for school ship use.

## Commissioning

The Baltisky was first proposed in the summer of 1980, after students and staff from the Leningrad Nakhimov Naval School started complaining that they could not go on expeditions with the Soviet Navy due to the Soviet-Afghan War taking resources from the navy, causing them to cut down on expenses.

In order to keep the students from making a scene, the High Council went through with the construction of the 3rd Moskva Class carrier, "Kiev," later naming her the Baltisky (Балтийский) after careful consideration. It was decided that naming the vessel the same as a different classed carrier would be inefficient, and cause confustion.

The name "Балтийский" was chosen due to the fact that the vessel was originally only to operate in the Baltic Sea as a sort of familiarization vessel. Many bordering states, namely Sweden and Finland, were concerned with the USSR operating an armed carrier in the North Sea, so on terms of friendship and kindness, the school opened up their vessel to Finnish, then later Swedish and East German students.

## East Germany

East German students made up a huge proportion of the school, as the educational system for youth joining the Volksmarine was limited. The Port of Rostock often greeted the Navy students from Leningrad, and in return, did exchanges between Rostock Naval School and LNA. Half of the students bound for Germany came from the USSR, and the other half from Rostock.

### Rostock Naval School

*Rostock Naval School was a longtime partner school of Leningrad Naval Academy. Due to the size of the Volksmarine at the time, the Naval School had no place to put their students when performing longer deployments. The Soviet Navy struck a deal in 1986 to share the Baltiysky, which was nicknamed "Der Baltische Wolf" by RNS students, with the East German navy. Over 200 aerial training sorties were operated aboard the craft, and over 50 deployments were made from 1986-1993.*

### Shutdown

With the fall of the USSR and the unification of East and West Germany, Rostock Naval School donated all of their tanks to Leningrad Naval as a sort of thanks before permenantly shutting down in 1993.

Due to the close history of the East Germans and the Leningrad Naval Academy, many German traditions are practiced on board, the biggest being Oktoberfest and Christmas. Wurst is often prepared for lunches and dinners aboard for the students.

## Chapter 5

**Chapter 5** of the Webtoon was published on Ridibooks in South-Korea. See here for a full overview of all media related to this chapter.

## Synopsis

> How could I have been forgiven for turning the heir of Valdemar into this?
>
>

A petrified Giovinetta explains why she refuses to make a scene even when pinned by the devil. While worrying, the devil suddenly collapses, granting Giovinetta the chance to flee back to her chamber. After calming down, she grows concerned about Johannes' state, and decides to return. She proposes they run away together, and when trying to move him, ends up trapped under the devil's weight. The devil comforts the despondent Giovinetta, before surprising her with a kiss.

## Summary

Bearing in mind how noble women are punished for obscene acts, Giovinetta refuses to make a scene, despite being trapped by a transformed Johannes in his room, because she may be seen as a wanton widow in a man's bedroom in the middle of the night. Giovinetta is terrified at the thought of being imprisoned in a convent, and not to mention the humiliation that the punishment brings.

Giovinetta fearfully wonders if his state will be permanent, and what would happen if the guards discovered his demonic form. Suddenly, the Devil collapses and Giovinetta flees into her own chamber. After her initial relief, Giovinetta worries about her possessed brother, feeling as if she's carelessly abandoned a corpse and guilty about being the cause behind his transformation. Ultimately, she returns to Johannes' room to take responsibility for summoning the Ducommun devil.

Quietly observing from a safe distance, Giovinetta becomes emboldened by the Devil's clumsiness and vulnerability. She proposes that they flee together and attempts to move the devil, but slips on her dress and is quickly weighed down by its large body. She berates the Devil for his uselessness before woefully steeping in her own helplessness. The devil comforts Giovinetta by wiping away her tears, and startles her with an abrupt kiss.

## Trivia

* A woman who commits an obscene act in the world of Lady Devil are shaved and stripped, before they mount a black horse which is paraded around town by a servant, while onlookers throw stones. Afterwards, the woman is branded as a wanton woman and sent to a convent or chased off into the wilderness to die old and alone. The punishment is apparently so distressing that the women may lose their mind to hunger, thirst or humiliation.
	+ The woman in the illustration of a shamed noblewoman could be inspired by Cersei in Game of Thrones.
