"You..."
"Everything Bella has was bestowed by Queen, so everything Bella owns belongs to Queen. The dragon egg too!"
"Even... even... even if... Queen... takes it and eats it... Bella... Bella won't blame Queen..."
Bella spoke the first part very seriously, but by the last sentence, she looked extremely pained and hesitant, forcing herself to say it.

"Queen doesn't want it?"

"Hatch it properly!"
Bronya stroked Bella's hair and glanced at the egg before her. Though she was a little curious about what a dragon egg tasted like, she would much rather see a little Bella be born.
"Yes, Queen."
Bronya's refusal immediately brought a beautiful smile to Bella's face. After all, it was her child. How could she possibly let it die so easily?

Only after her death, when Sirin created a Pseudo-Herrscher core for her, did she gain a human body and the ability to think. She was given the name "Bella."
And from that very moment onward, the name Bella became the most important thing
