"... A lot." "It is." the clan leader nodded, wiping his hand with a cloth without showing any emotion. "The Bloodfang is full of corrupted people. It's saddening." "You don't sound like it, though." He quirked a brow, putting down the white cloth on the side of his plate. "Should I weep to prove my emotions?" "No, sir." I shook my head profusely. "Haha! Leader, isn't this child cute?" a man whose smile never left his face finally broke his silence. Unlike the clan leader, this person had a…

"So?" I raised my brows, helping myself with food, as it seemed this would be a long dinner date with my clan. They just watched me while I shamelessly fill my plate with food like a glutton. "Oh, don't worry. I tend to stress eat and with the atmosphere here? I'm confident I need food for comfort." "What a shameless child, indeed.!" A woman with a fan, who had been slandering me since the beginning, remarked. She looked at me with disgust in her eyes, but I didn't care about her. "We should've…

"Keep the child; That is what's happening." Samael didn't understand her vague explanation. Wouldn't she let go of this conversation? Lilou was awake, albeit unresponsive. Taking notice of his confusion, Beatrice let out a sigh. "I don't know the reason, but what I knew is she is keeping herself half-awake by instinct." "Half-awake? Why? Can't she completely wake up?" "It's not that." She shook her head, gazing at Lilou's eyes. "Maybe there's a reason she doesn't want to wake up just yet. She…

The first morning was chaotic. The news spread faster like a wildfire, sending terror to everyone. Some noble head clans had made a scene in the Capital's plaza and encouraged the people for unity. But alas, only a few had the courage to go to the palace and come face to face with those 'rebels' who turned the place upside down. The outside of the palace was almost similar on the inside. Rufus and the Duke's knighthood brigade seized the palace. Some royal knights devoted to the king resisted but…

Once morning came, the state of the once glorious imperial palace was overwhelming. The cold palace in the west wing was nothing but rubbles. Some parts of it were still caught on fire, and piles of corpses scattered the silent hallways and outside. It appeared more like a result of a large-scale war. The scent of blood loomed in the air that could reach even the border of the country. And yet, the casualties in the capital were surprisingly low. Everyone in the capital walked outside their homes…

Samael sauntered through the palace hallway with Lilou in his arms. He didn't bat an eye at the mess in his surrounding, walking over at the scattered corpses on the floor. Some fighting from a distance reached his ear, but he didn't care about that. It was simply the last cry and struggle of their enemy. The outcome had already been decided. Samael and Lilou won this fight. The irony, though. He didn't feel like there was something to celebrate about. He had killed his brother and now his wife…

Back in the throne hall, Samael took out Alphonse's heart just to make sure he was dead. God knows how this pained him that he had to do this just to make sure that his brother was dead. After doing so, Samael turned his head in Lilou's direction. "Lilou." He sprung to his feet, rushing to Lilou's side. His bloodstained hand stopped before touching her, gazing at Alphonse's blood on his hand. "Lilou," he whispered, gazing at her that made his eyes soften. "Whatever..." Samael exhaled sharply…

Meanwhile, in the private estate where they had found the coffin for the members of the La Crox family. Noah stood in front of the estate, watching fire devour the place. "Your Grace," he whispered, recalling Samael's pained expression when he left. "I'm sorry that the Remington's couldn't do anything during the late king's madness." The children of the late king weren't born wicked. If one looked into them thoroughly, one could see that they were just children, trapped in a cruel place, and…

"Darkfield." Alphonse grinned wickedly as he glanced at the dark shroud surrounding them. But this didn't stop him from attacking Samael as he extended his claws, aiming at his heart. Before Alphonse could reach Samael, a hand grabbed his arm, which instantly crushed his bone. He could feel that his bone didn't just shatter from the area Samael held, but it continued up to his shoulder. "Did you know how I defeat father?" Samael inquired, looking down at Alphonse with no emotions in his eyes. "I…

"...Salvation. "Salvation...? This is not taking out its root, Alphonse. You are trying to flee from it." "You are so stubborn, but this time, I understand since your wife is involved." Alphonse glanced at Lilou, lying unconscious behind Samael. "I am genuinely saddened about her fate, but if I am going to choose, I will always choose my family." There was a moment of silence between the two before Alphonse gazed back at Samael. The side of his lips curled up into a subtle smile. "But you have…
