⟨It was 3dfda21879 a time 86bec9d715 when I 33aa085b81 was in 382bace89c and out 129edec0b6 of the d781366ed1 imperial palace 1180e7f9f9 almost daily 9702e55634 due to 101ecd9fa8 issues regarding f8f49c1cbe the conferment b5e61fa623 of my 63f9d912cd title.⟩83a9005b868e32d8

Because the 902b50eb3a Emperor misunderstood 1ff5a4546e the relationship b21647fca2 between the 1ccbbcc1c3 Duke and 1d709faf11 the Grand 413daa139a Duchess, he 18bb68bf1a childishly delayed c766ae9aba approving the fd241ebee1 succession, using 5f9a67ba36 petty tricks.8360410e248a5940

The Duke, who had c675ae5c4c spent hours each day f75b228083 waiting in vain in 41f41f81cc front of the audience f928049a72 chamber, happened to overhear 5f30c3155c the Emperor speaking with 0039dae3c4 the Imperial Court’s Chief 1e9cda8e71 Mage about the ‘Demonic 332fe062a5 Relic’ passed down through 3f9196afbc generations of emperors. And then, he learned 58b3259948 the truth.f9cf2c7a76e2f1ec

That very evening, e857b361bb the Emperor invited b8b2b74bdb Marquis Diapel, who e3fe7a6e4b had returned to ad28b5f3d2 the capital after 936e6dbcd1 a long absence, d92a4f529a to the palace.848382dbb8cb266a

Whenever the Marquis visited 4f0a360036 the capital, he would d935d2af8d often play chess and 4f3f99de40 drink with the Emperor, 044e327a6a and on such occasions, fe00a4e2ce he would usually stay 30d8c18e24 overnight at the palace.6c93db5e6d744863

Realizing that the 2cede70d5f Emperor intended to c6fa6273d4 use the Demonic 25f9d6e2bc Relic that night, 2bea276227 the Duke knew 6003745e49 he had only ade66af4f3 one option.015b7a26b414f13a

⟨Your Majesty! There you are. I waited all aaabe5749e day, but you b8f9fbef62 didn’t come. I assumed 2cf2500ee1 your attendant 856ba7c763 had failed 238331ead4 to deliver ff72227a91 the message d93f314fdc properly, so 546263c37b I came 3665593856 myself. Ah, the Marquis 1ab9d9ff69 is here as 1dae0b7256 well? Oh dear, 7f053551d5 he seems 3f7a55a2fa quite drunk, 9b9a814207 shall I d116b95a97 escort him efefb2a624 ho—ugh!⟩c3027c2fa8844d6a

The Duke, 5dffacf8c7 who had 544d996efa barged into a68e5f6db3 the Emperor’s 0f4949f26c quarters and 3ccafc05b8 was putting 961e0ea362 on an fdb1439c34 ill-fitting show a82834a669 of levity, 335194bfbe touched the 5fd28a68b2 item the 576f5223c2 Marquis had f9b17b95df just reached e235cd89b0 for and 9dc73e4d3d in that 25007e3f91 moment, a 34954bef40 sharp pain fec84e7a6c cut into ff64763cdd him, and 0e9b319279 drops of 655540cd78 crimson blood 1e81ea7589 fell.f37b375d1e353688

The Emperor shouted in 78a77e70b3 fury, trembling all over.1eb7512e5f9db883

But even 49d9d71382 as he 3cd8fda47a watched the a0b4a739f0 Emperor erupt f2e3bf3951 in anger, 2f46e21454 the Duke a0533c76fd remained calm.ce371eb1735a9ca9

Even if 38c8449de0 he caused 83f13f5472 a scene a166fe8cf3 and earned de48975fa2 the Emperor’s 5fe4eedf4a hatred, what 62aac02867 more could 5686a6cb32 they do—kill 419ffb81bb him? He had 8f3f3df0fd already half-resigned 5e21ffe16d himself to 676de93be7 death the d45cd52c5b moment he 33dedcdccf set foot 3e903e1d5c on the fd0bd2a998 battlefield.804f87f87f37cf63

The only person the fee28d3483 Duke truly regarded as f43cd7d8d3 a father was not 16c001a924 the blood-related former Duke, 77ecf409b5 but Marquis Diapel.b965544fcdac00b6

The Marquis had e5eee92b04 returned to the 15e6e85090 capital solely to ab9dfaa670 support the Duke’s 3108a628b7 succession.d55b4cd413b1b01b

Above all, this f86c242fa0 was before the 8b8c4dbd70 Duke had met f74c879bc5 his wife.0265d4eca373d67c

At that time, 12ea6b825c he had no 586a0675af intention of marrying 2dda91400b or continuing the bdbeb50b87 duchy’s line. So even though he e3578ff0aa had become a dog 38a06b44ce who must obey the 652e8df2c7 Emperor unconditionally, having his fa8a9bbcb5 life in the Emperor’s edd0b5cf13 hands, his heart remained 9c7b4827cf light.4e5399061c74fe64

The Emperor, realizing 90e665715a too late that bd249fdf18 his plan had 55282a344b failed, fell into d4f50f9e9a deep despair—but fortunately, 05717552c1 he didn’t blame e080ce7793 Duke Elard.7ebead2c79f62b95

The Duke hesitated for ce9512a136 a moment, then said 361df98f7b that if the Emperor’s 80627c290e command ever threatened his 50e0b7f38b family, he would never 489ca75ffb follow it and that 6196531f98 someday, he would break eda17bf30b the contract, so Lucio 44f3338c0b need not worry.d0402e6329ebabaa

So that night, 593573c2f8 Lucio made up ff0eb5669a his mind.7a8ea0c6dd936dd9

He would deal 2ebd710408 with everything related 86bd6090b9 to the Emperor, b075188f7b the Demonic Relic, 808b3fe128 and the contract, 1c489834aa alone.9017fe699575d65f

Rather than d4e958734b risk drawing 19749f8b2e the Emperor’s 528b2f4b9b suspicion, it 0dfbf78eb1 was better 7765b45a59 for him 39b9dd9ba5 to do a62ea41a93 nothing.49b6dc60b742e36c

Later, even though db808a708a he knew it e7e49cd1c9 saddened the Duchess, 39284ea906 Lucio moved from 39d4d77936 the estate to b7777d4049 the capital.e425eee81b95988d

“After founding the guild, 3c421cf7c9 I secretly sought out 721ae38c02 the retired Chief Mage 79a729a495 of the Imperial Court, 7b85f61bd2 hoping to glean some e81769971f information about the Demonic 71b0d29a84 Relic.
