Agnes, the biological daughter of the Claude family, has long endured abuse from her kin. Falsely accused of stealing her sister Elsa’s brooch, she slits her own throat in despair. On the brink of death, she awakens angelic divine power, gaining sacred strength and a new lease on life, and resolves to sever all earthly ties.
Revived, Agnes displays extraordinary abilities. She forces Elsa to kneel in public and exposes her lie about the stolen brooch. She then presents a holy covenant, demanding her father Claude sign it to disown her. Instead of complying, her family mocks and taunts her. Soon afterward, the Holy See abruptly waives tithes on Claude’s lands. Agnes appears in a magnificent white gown, stunning everyone. Her mother Helga instantly changes her attitude and decides to take her to Duke Norman’s banquet.
At the feast, Agnes recognizes a sacred feather as one that once belonged to her. Elsa tries to ruin her reputation by shoving her into a display stand, but Agnes dodges, leaving Elsa to cause the disaster herself. To preserve Elsa’s marriage prospects, Claude falsely blames Agnes and threatens to disown her once more. With a cold smile, Agnes produces the holy covenant. Enraged, Claude finally ratifies the sacred blood‑severance pact. His name on the parchment vanishes, turning into golden threads that merge into Agnes’s body. Before the shocked crowd can dismiss it as a trick, Claude’s face undergoes a grotesque transformation, filling everyone with terror. Having cut every bond that chained her, Agnes ultimately ascends to become a great archangel.
