Does the Eternal Duke truly exist?
Is the succession of the Eternal Duke genuinely passed down through generations?
The giants… do they all truly not know that the Eternal Duke has not been replaced for a very, very long time, and has always been the same person?
And.
— Would the absence or presence of the Eternal Duke really make such a big difference to them?
A race indifferent even to their own life and death.
Would they be so persistent and concerned about the existence or nonexistence of the Eternal Principality?
The answer, of course, is no.
"It was probably from the moment when the Eternal Principality was invaded by the Mist, that Duke Midas realized… from the very start, he was the one who was not needed,"
The people of the Eternal Principality do not fear death at all, which also means they will not actively flee from death—in other words, the ancient giants of the Eternal Principality were a race doomed to extinction from the beginning.
