That day, Charles camped outside the city and felt too ashamed to return to his hometown.

By evening, his brother Mycroft Meklen had arrived. Since Lady Southseraph of the Restoration Army had been killed by Cyrus and her head taken, no one bothered the Meklen family anymore, and Charles's father took the family back to Seagull City.

But this time when he saw Charles, Mycroft Meklen already knew that his younger brother had been promoted and even acquired a diplomatic status, having gone on a mission to the Inglima Empire. He was said to have gained the Inglima emperor's favor and was offered a position there.
