897 Small Ripple, Part 1 - Moldard's Confession ① -

There was a little movement inside Arnelia. For one thing, the fact that someone might have broken out in Arnelia circulated as a mystery or a rumor. The soldiers beaten by Dortmund were laid with slogans, but the family and those close to them still perceive their change. Various speculations flew from there, but no one could imagine that in the people of Shirai there was at best a full extent of banditry, such as the infiltration of a knight representing history as an enemy. The rumours eventually disappeared, but it was true that Miriazar's reign against his reign - or at least Miriazar's reign as the 'Virgin' now widely recognized by the public. Virgin certified supreme bishops rarely touch the public except at the time of revelation, but it was a natural flow for the people to question their ability to govern because they knew that this time the Virgin was young.

Meanwhile, Crudas' death had left a great ripple in Gloria. There was a great deal of echo, especially among his peers, who withheld their graduation up close, some of whom declined to remain in Arnelia, while others volunteered to remain in Arnelia on the contrary.

In the wake of the death of Crudas, his sister-in-law Belliache wept in the first place, but none of his flesh and blood wept. It is not a thin affair, for them it is also the fate of the clan, one of the many paths they have followed. Those who remain in Lazar are ready for it. It was customary for those who could not stand Lazar's responsibility to leave to a place unrelated to Arnelia, albeit with surveillance without a mouth. In other words, in the remaining stages of Arnelia, they must be prepared to die.

For the flesh parents, Crudas' death was accepted as one of the recurring facts with cotton, but only one, Rafferty, had set aside time to talk to his father, Moldard.

"Father, can I have a moment?"

"... what"

It is unusual for Rafferty to call him Father about Moldard. They had already cut off their fringe as parents and children since joining the Temple Knights, and had just become a relationship as fighters. And now out of that strength, my sons are superior. Within the Temple Knights, Moldard was already in a position to salute his sons.

This time, it is also the first time in years that Rafferty has actually called him Father about Moldard.

"What does your father think about Crudus?

"... as a father or as a knight"

"Both"

"Hear the hard things"

Moldard walked out silently as he clouded his expression for a moment. Rafferty follows suit. The two climbed onto the viewing deck of the Deep Green Palace. The watchmen perceived an unusual atmosphere between the two of them, and left not to make footsteps when Rafferty nodded and urged them.

As the guard distanced himself from the signs, Moldard told him to whine as he looked far away.

"Crudas was a sweet child. It was faceless, oligarchy and therefore not well known, but it was a character not suitable for battle"

"I knew."

"On the other hand, I was showing interest in weapons. It's ironic that you're interested in weapons because you don't like fighting. If you were an arms maker or something, you might have shown the most power. It's also a problem that I woke up young to the power of blood. I knew how to use my seriousness, so I couldn't abandon the fight."

"I know so much, why did you leave me alone? Though how you cut off the edge, you're the father, aren't you?

In Lafferty's questionable words, Moldard glanced at Lafferty.

"I once had the same problem"

"And your father?

"Oh, I hated the fight, too. But our clan is destined to fight. When I was younger, I worried a lot about that. Our clan is for everyone to worry about once. And the answer is, you have to find it yourself. And we have always been."

Moldard's gaze also seems to blame Rafferty. Rafferty got stuck with the words a long time ago.

"Sure, but..."

"You and Alberto found it. Anything that wasn't left. Even though I hadn't found Crudas, I didn't leave. And fought as it was. The result is natural."

"That's the way to put it!

"But"

Moldard took a breath.

"If Crudas was about his mother - and he felt a burden or some responsibility about Lianna - my sin for not clearing that up exactly is enormous. I should have explained it sooner."

"About your mother."

Rafferty remembers her mother. They used to be Temple Knights, but when Rafferty was born, the sword was already there. And I remember not wanting to go outside, not feeling too well.

Speaking of myself, I was obsessed with the archery of the sword to catch up with Alberto. I feel like I barely remember my mother or anything. The trend has increased extra since I had Crudas. And since I gave birth to Crudus, I have finally tended to be ill, and by then I had already entered my studies away from my parents in the Deep Green Palace, so I don't have many memories of my mother in Rafferty. Instead of being lonely, it was honest that I couldn't even afford to think about my mother because it was just every day I slept exhausted in training.

But now it seems strange. How could someone whose body wasn't so sturdy originally be forced to cage Crudas? We who draw the blood of Miriazar. The birth of the Lazar family is considerably more onerous than a normal birth. The Lazar boys therefore choose their wives quite carefully. I would never welcome a woman to my wife who I assume won't be able to stand giving birth to. It will also be explained to women who will be welcomed into the clan. And many people can go through childbirth once or twice. Few women in history are strong enough to go through three births. Rafferty asked.
