--I see ,but you must first refrain your words as master kylian isn't the Master of the household as he is now unders the rule of his brother ,Master Tristan .

A few days before the arrival of the new guests both Rachel and blue , other things were happening around the duke's mansion .

This mansion once ruled by the knight dog of the emperor now feared by the other houses, their main ability is in swordsmanship as many of their patriarch have reached pinnacle of swords , as also the magic they wield is that of the first dragon . CHTHON the earth dragon known as the first dragon to collaborate with the humans in the early days of Ragnarok.

At first the last duke left his legacy to his first son kylian this was not to be expected by his brother Tristan because he had everything both the talent on swordsmanship and also in academics he was the one genius found in a millennia , but one thing his father told him a leader doesn't come with just being a genius but someone who leads someone who will be ready to sacrifice in what needs to be sacrifice for the sake of the household ,

And also his father didn't see him as someone who could be acknowledge as he was a bastard son ,born by not the true blood but by that of a commoner .

As years past they grew , but one day things changed as both had lovers kylian fell in love with Tristan's lover Rachel the child of a known family of nobles ,at first he persuade her talking advantage of his power kylian called for her at his "secret meetings" as he couldn't withdraw his desire .

His wife saw this and not blaming kylian but Rachel for being beautiful as she also dind want to lose everything he had but something changed as the wife of kylian confronted Rachel Tristan saw this and being led by anger in an instant he killed her .

Now as the one engaged to kylian died they needed a same respectable house to take the place of kylians wife and as of that the same house with the same power as theirs was Rachel's family .

Rachel refused but it was unavoidable as in the next year's Rachel was announced as the next patriachs wife of kylian , they stayed together but didn't share the same bed with each other ,Rachel sneaking at night wanting to see her lover Tristan .

While through this kylian new of everything just as he's greed got the best of him his desire climbing uproar , then he prepared using the mask of a sheep covering himself as he's the wolf he went back to the family of his late fiance acting on his best , he conspired with them by using the magic of shape shift and to high a broker just to shape shift as Tristan .

Just every dark night Rachel sneaked but this time something was different Tristan couldn't been seen as she awaits minutes pass , she goes impatient when she was about to live that's when he arrived something was born during their magical night .

The next morning Tristan caught her all naked and both kylian as his aspired plan worked as if he cannot have her then no one can .

Ashaming her family ,having slept with a commoner as also she was sold to the slave trade while her family cursed her aside .

Now she has returned to whom she once loved with her because in her eyes she only saw Tristan as the father of blue but everything comes with a sacrifice.

--How many years ?

--14 years if am not wrong .

--You were never to appear at our grounds or have you forgotten ?

--i haven't in the slightest

--speak of your wish .

--i would like for my son to be under as a worker for the household .

--Prepostorous how dare a mere commoner speak with favour !

One of the elders spoke as where they are is where all the audience take place a room of crimson ,a room not made by gold but it's pillars made with some silver structure as the seats are build as for everyones power in the household at the front where a king resides its structure is that of the room made of the western ways .

Now as she asks for favour everyone's face turns that of anger at his left side two seats are placed the seats are that of his wives one is that of Rachel sister and the other one is that of a house she doesn't recongnised .

The first patriachs wife speaks .

-- what do you offer in return for this unimaginable offer .

--i will take the fault at what had occured in the count's banquet .

--And by how may I ask .

--You may see fit as you wish .

--Then you shall be burnt at stake as for this was due to the dying of the knights captain of the lowest order .

--Then it shall be done .

Everyone was pleased and also shocked by the words and also as the duke didn't mutter a single word during the whole audience .

While news has break ,blue awaks in a room his vision clears as a young woman with the eyes of a galaxy hair of the sun looking at him on her right her royal guard also a woman well curved a balde she holds in her back .

The child speaks .

--I great you as the second daughter of the duke name Alya Maquis Tristan the ii .

--i was curious as to whom would be allowed at the mansion at this hour and as I see it I wonder why father has brought the insect in .
