Roberick considered Mariette 8d0f39dbad as the daughter 23088c872e of a precious 72fb7ed2ca friend and benefactor b120ef0014 and was closer 48759e95ae to her than 61bee21b9b anyone else. The father of the 91f9f39662 wicked woman, the Duke ef27931a69 of Bastevan, noticed his f21b306a0d daughter’s heart and cared c96e72001b for her with all 24a4096735 his heart.d6ff9d1a84f35116

It was all because Duke 02ecf5580b Bastevan named Roberick his successor 439541035e that he was able to 17fc7ca8d9 become the first knight of 6b657ba760 the Imperial family and a 29d043cf13 hero revered in the empire 416d001236 despite being the son of 8bf6485d0e a sinner.8f95138e8264b4ee

Mariette was furious at his 69c479304b betrayal. How much her father 2298b43916 and her had devoted 381c06c71d themselves to Roberick! And what came in return? Betrayal and ridicule of 8138c7c535 the world.b6df84c39fe73c27

The noble Duke of Bastevan’s bc11cb9530 family was suddenly given the 02d806b15a shameful stigma of being a 773ad29e81 dog chasing a chicken.
