Inside his office, Cassius, standing in front of the window facing the side building with a uneasiness showing in his eyes…

He let out a deep sigh after ordering the servants and the aid out

It already has been a few days since I conversed with that girl, ever since that evening, when the sun was setting, witness to our dispute over the same subject…

This house, this family could no longer be called one, ever since you left us Ananda… without you, the ties of blood that is tying us together are day after day withering out like a decayed rose under the harsh impact of seasons…

I could even say it all started at that cursed day when you decided keeping the child despite knowing that would lead to your demise… and I couldn’t stop you.

    It was only yesterday when I went to the garden party of his blondiness prince Lukretus, it would be a huge lie if I said that I haven’t enjoyed verbally detonating mister Golden head and miss the wandering drug! Especially when the karma that I have provoked showered them with this world’s justice!Sweet abyss… I really am vicious!Moreover, I can say frantically and clearly that I am completely disappointed in the powers of the goddess Solaria… even if she is a low ranking deity and the only one that kept faith in this world other than the abyss, to think the effect of her powers is the same effect of a charm spell, truly disappointing!Canditia, the saint with the powers of the goddess… So the reason she was a loved female lead in the original main story of the game is because of this power?

The reason why I brought all these empty books is simple; I’ll use them to make an archive!I have been spreading my familiars everywhere to collect information… I am not complaining since they are perfectly collecting information and spying just like I
