Chapitre 194: Darkening Clouds Over the Horizon

Serpentes POV;

Why do I fight?

Why do I take pleasure in the deaths of so many people?

Simple.

Because of my upbringing, I became like this.

My story is rather dark and long, but I will just shorten my explanation.

I was abused when I was a child. I saw all kinds of abusive behaviour from the royal family and experienced a lot of deaths.

"Mom"

"Hm?"

"Is it normal that Father has a lot of wives?"

"...No"

"Then why does he have a lot of wives? Why does he need a lot of children?"

"You are still young to understand"

"Mom is called a concubine, right? What does concubine mean?"

"...I- It is hard to explain, my dear"

"What is so hard to explain?"

"I'm sorry"

"Why are you apologising all of a sudden?"

My mother did not want hate to get rooted into my heart, but being in the royal family, as chaotic and evil as it is, it is hard for her to prevent the hatred.
