The day was rather peaceful, prior to other days. Though everyday Fontaine was tortured things were going smoothly. But Lante seemed to be after something else.
Roxana just laid low and obediently followed Lante's everyday orders.
'I just need to be a bit patient. Now's not the time to destroy Lante. Well not completely'
She needed to take over the Agriche family when things weren't going so smooth in the noble society.
Her patience gained her a reward. She then found out some information about the new puppet designed by the Veritium family.
While walking through the garden in the mansion, she once again bumped into Dion.
"How did you find out?" Dion asked.
"You waited a week before you came to ask me. I never knew you were such a coward"
"Answer the question."
"You have no right to enforce your will on me" She smiled brightly and stared straight at him. "Let me just say. I found out from a book"
It wasn't a lie after all. She had found out that secret, when she had read the novel. And besides, it was very obvious.
What was the secret? Well it starts from a long time ago.
***
A little boy, by the name of Dion was a son of Lante Agriche who was one of the most powerful nobles in the Empire.
Lante Agriche always neglected his children and saw them as tools. Dion always tried to reach Lante's standards.
Then at a certain age he realized his father could not have any familial feelings towards him. So he gave up on that and only worked to improve himself.
Then one day, one of his father's wives gave birth to a girl. The girl was named Roxana.
He didn't pay attention to the girl. He never saw her and was just one of his siblings that he felt had no use to him.
Nine years later he bumped into a young girl who he was three years older than.
She had mysterious red eyes and glittering blonde hair. He was mesmerized by her beauty.
At that moment, his heart skipped a beat. Was it love at first sight? He thought so.
But the feelings he felt when he found out the girl who he was in love with, was his younger half sister was indescribable.
He was in love with Roxana.
But that wasn't the whole part of the secret. That was only half of the secret.
The secret was that he hated his father Lante. What was the reason? Well, it was because of Dion's twisted reasoning.
He felt like it was Lante's fault that Roxana was born as his sister. He felt even angrier when Lante would use Roxana to seduce men.
Because of Roxana, Dion hated Lante to the death. That was the major reason why she believed that no matter what, Dion could never have the guts to betray her.
***
After encountering Dion she moved back into her room. On the way she once again encountered another brother. This time it was Jeremy.
"Hey Roxy. I'd like to talk to you"
Roxana smiled then invited him into her room.
"What exactly have you been planning?" Since the past few days Jeremy had noticed something strange was up.
Though he didn't like mental work he used his all his brain power just because it was Roxana.
Jeremy was the only who truly cared for her as a brother.
"I don't understand what you're talking about. I haven't been planning anything at all" Precisely for that reason, she didn't want to let Jeremy in on her plans.
He may try to stop her if he thought it was dangerous. She would let him in on her plans very soon, but not now.
