[2. Blood Painting Skin:
The pursuit of beauty by humanity is endless, but this beauty often lies not in the profound truths of the world, but in the burning of desire.
The King of the Kingdom had a penchant for earthly beauties, but the skins of mortal beings could no longer satisfy his desires.
Thus, he issued an edict throughout the Kingdom, seeking the most beautiful person in the world.
The old tailor's wife wanted to marry her daughter into the royal palace, so she sought the method to bring unparalleled beauty to her child.
An ancient witch pointed her in the right direction. In the darkness, using life and flesh as bait, she obtained the legendary, unparalleled artifact of beauty.
This item shimmered with breathtaking allure, but the wife did not give it to her daughter.
When the deadline for the King's edict arrived, her meticulously dressed daughter pushed open her mother's door.
