บท 603: Burden of the Throne

As the emperor cried while weeping tears of helplessness… the atmosphere of the room was filled with pain and suffering. At this moment when no one was watching him letting his sorrow out… Havi reminisced about the happenings of 38 years ago. 

His father was the only child of the former empress who married a worthy fireborne warrior even though he didn't belong to any of the six fireborne clans. 

And his father also followed the same tradition because no matter how loyal these clans were… in the end, they just needed an opportunity or an excuse to usurp the reigning emperor or an empress if they were not strong enough or didn't possess a scheming mind. 

But one day, his father, who was a seventh stage saint himself, passed away out of the blue because of some sickness no one was aware of.
