"Her situation was worsening day by day and she died when Riz was four. She didn't want a position or anything, so I listened to her. I was an idiot, if I had given them a proper position then they wouldn't be bullied. The child kept their distance and stayed cautious with me. To Rit and riz, I was a lord and their father. I could only pull the string behind me and keep them safe from the dark.

During that time my brother's party was very active, and secretive and killed any successor who had the possibility to be the next lord. The woman and her child who had conceived my child were executed by their hands. To ensure Rit and her family's safety, I couldn't announce their connection with me. Later I sent a message to their maternal home and they were out of my reach. I accept I was a coward. If I was a bit fearless, they wouldn't have suffered." The man's eyes had turned misty.
