"Yoon Murasaki..."
I muttered the na of the fiancée I shouldn't have known as if I knew her.
(...What is this feeling? Sad? Why?)
The mont after I muttered the na, a strong emotion of sadness ca over . A very strong and regretful feeling of sadness.
"You knew her?"
Father asked in confusion as to how I could know my fiancé's na if I didn't even rember Murasaki's surna.
(I'd like to know too.)
"No, it's just that the na suddenly popped into my head."
"...I see."
Father seed to be silent for a while as if thinking about sothing. Do you know sothing?
"Ahem, so what about it? Do you have any objections?"
At first I thought this engagent would ruin dad's plans but looking objectively it might benefit us plus I was also curious why I knew the na of a fiancé I didn't even know.
But first I need to confirm sothing first.
"I don't mind, but what about the Royal family? Wouldn't they disapprove?"
For a noble to marry in a different country requires approval by the head of state, it is the law of this entire world. Therefore the Wolfled family needed the approval of the royal family.
The Alyaska Royal Family seems to have a bad relationship with the Yangnam Kingdom plus our relationship with the Royal family is currently very bad. It's only natural that the Royal family would reject an engagent that would help increase our family's power.
"...They agreed to it."
But it seems my assumption was wrong, in fact I just got an answer that I would never have thought of.
"...they approved it?"
I asked father again in a very cold voice with a very angry tone.
"Yes."
Although he answered calmly, I could feel the strong anger in his voice.
Getting approval from the royal family ant that our family was considered harmless and never even considered by the royal family.
For the Wolfled family who had high self-esteem, that treatnt could only be considered an insult.
(Bastards! How dare they, the traitor family of mankind dare to insult the Wolfled family's pride... I'll make sure to chop them up in the future.)
I was so angry that I cursed inwardly with my old nature. Even my hand that was clenched into a fist at this mont was bleeding.
"..."
(Zend looks so angry, he must really love his people. It seems like our son has really turned into an adult very quickly.)
Father and mother saw my anger and looked at each other.
"Calm down, my son."
Mother stroked my bleeding hand and healed it with mother's magic.
"Father, I'm ready for this engagent if it's for the sake of your plan."
"...Alright. I'll tell you right away. You'll probably et your fiancé in the next two or three weeks."
"Okay."
...
Heh, I never thought fate would be so cruel.
Supposedly my perfect plan would not involve the mories of the forgotten episode but fate has never been in accordance with my wishes.
Although I have manipulated so that this episode is very different from the forgotten episode, but the connection with the forgotten episode still cannot be removed.
It looks like the plan of the three of us will have a little obstacle to carry out.
I hope our main plan is not interrupted and I hope you don't experience what I experienced.
For the sake of our Freedom, I wish you all the best, Zend the incarnation of The Chaos.
...
It had been a month since Zend's awakening,
At first Aamon was worried about the effects of his son's awakening which made his body very weak but Aamon was very happy to see that his son did not give up and continued his training as usual.
Over the past month Aamon had seen many changes in his son compared to before. But there was sothing nagging at the back of Aamon's mind.
(Why was Zend acting like a bad guy?)
Zend's cruel actions towards the maids and butlers in the mansion reached Aamon's ears, at first Aamon was confused as to how Zend who looked mature could be cruel.
Then Aamon began to order the head butler to investigate and found so oddities in Zend's actions. Although Zend committed cruel acts, they were never really called cruel as if they were just provocations to make the maids and butlers hate him.
Because of Zend's strange actions, one day Aamon asked Zend during dinner.
"Zend, why are you making the maids and butlers hate you?"
"!!!"
Then Zend looked very surprised but his expression quickly cald down.
"What are you talking about? I'm just saying what I think."
"I see..."
In the end, Aamon could only believe Zend's words. After all, it was not uncommon for traits to change after Awakening. Even when Aamon first Awakened, he also often spoke harshly to anyone and even his mory was a little ssed up. So Aamon thought that Zend's actions were a normal phenonon.
Aamon watched his son walk out of the room with a bit of concern as his skin looked pale.
"Sebas."
After Aamon said the na, a darkness ca out of Aamon's shadow revealing the appearance of an old man in butler's clothes.
That man was Sebastian, Aamon's personal butler.
"Sebas has co to see you, sir."
"You don't need to be formal like that old man. Just talk as usual."
"Haha, I see."
Sebastian was a butler who had served since Aamon's father and could be said to be Aamon's teacher. Hence the relationship between the two was very close.
"Sebas, accompany my son. He looks so pale that he might faint at any mont."
Sebas then looked at Zend who was no longer there and nodded his head.
"Indeed, young master's heartbeat is very chaotic."
"Is that so."
Sebas' words were strange enough to know Zend's heartbeat especially since Zend was very far away from the room at the mont but Aamon trusted Sebas' judgnt.
"But I didn't expect you to care about your son."
"What does that an."
"Of course you should know what I an. People who are full of ambition and willing to sacrifice anything for their goals change drastically after having a child."
"...I haven't changed. It's just that there's sothing more valuable than my ambition. You should be able to know this feeling after you have a child."
"Heh. It's a pity that this old man isn't compatible with sothing like affection."
"Yes, yes. Don't talk so much and go watch my son imdiately."
"Understood."
Sebas then instantly lted into darkness and disappeared from the room.
