章 222: The Tower

"What is honor if it will end with us dying? I get you, Lester. However, not everyone has the same mindset as you. We're a small family to begin with. As a branch of one of the 5 Aristocratic Families, we were diligent in our duties. During our seclusion, we crept closer behind them by producing you. But this… unless we produce another Unparalleled for the race, we're just another heap of bodies they can send in the frontline for them."

Considering this is a manor near to that bridge, I thought they would be a lower family. Even if there are only five main Aristocratic Families, each of them has numerous branch families.
