章節 156: The bastard

Eiravyne couldn't pinpoint the exact moment when everything changed. 

She remembered how Ilkar used to despise the idea of his father cheating on his mother, and despise the very existence of Theodore, the child Klarissa had with Ilkar's father. 

His hatred for the boy was so intense that it was painful for Eiravyne to even mention him. 

She had never had a little brother or sister and always thought that Theodore was innocent, a miracle in his own right. But Ilkar couldn't see it that way.

 He used to speak of getting rid of him as if the child were a nuisance, not a person. 

And yet, now, Ilkar was acting like a big brother to Theodore. How have things changed so much? She didn't know.

Buried in her thoughts, Eiravyne barely noticed Urag as he moved toward Ilkar and the others. 

When she finally realized what he was about to do, she panicked. "Not... not now," she pleaded, her voice trembling with anxiety.
