Chapter 210: A Family Feeling?

Iria Alewine felt a bit reluctant to answer. All the news she heard about her mother's family crossed her mind and her only memory of meeting one family member three years ago. It happened a few weeks after her father's death and she had never told anyone about it.

"Have you ever heard the surname Francia?" she finally asked the Prince.

Francia? The surname was quite familiar and it took a few seconds for Orius to recall. "Isn't that the surname of the ruling family of the Cedore Empire?" he asked.

Iria Alewine nodded with a bit of hesitation. "My mother's real name was Wilona Francia," she confessed.

The Francia family. The family was once a powerful military family in the Cedore Empire. They used to run the Francia Army and were loyal to the then imperial family of Cedore. However, the then Emperor was such a tyrant and rumors have it that the cries of the people reached the skies!
