Bab 154: City with curses

'Something is wrong with that child!'

Hex couldn't quite put his finger on it. It was more intuition than a conscious thought but he believed his intuition. 

"There is no record of Ericka's husband or lover. Where did this child pop out from? Who is the father?" Rayos wasn't convinced. 

Hex didn't think he would be convinced, even with a record as proof. Rayos wouldn't allow the Viscount's inheritance to slip through his hand easily.

"Are you perhaps the father?" Rayos pointed at the inconspicuous man behind Solos. 

Hex followed Rayos' finger and looked at the person he was pointing at. The man had an average face and could easily be forgotten, though Hex recognized him. 

'Wasn't he one of the finalists in the tournament? I remember he was with the twins after the battle with Ronan.'

The man became flustered. Everyone's eyes were on him. "N-No Sir. I-I am Edwards Maine of Fallenstad. I am but an average man serving the lady."
