Chapter 87
"Oh, my..."
A pale young man with blond hair and red eyes entered the room, a soft and gentle smile on his lips. Nakasunod sa kaniya ang panganay na kapatid na may kulay tsokolateng buhok at berdeng mga mata.
The blond haired man stood between the two rulers, his finger on Sigyn's blade, slowly pushing it down.
"Now, now. How 'bout we lower the tension just for a little?"
"Professor Moriarty!" Natutuwang bulalas ni Eunice when finally, a person that isn't intimidated by the two rulers, came.
Napalingon ito sa kaniya.
"It's been many years since we last saw each other, Your Grace. I am now the Minister of Education of the Ferrucio Empire and has the title of a Count. I am also Sifresia's father."
"She's a bright girl. Very much like you." Komento ni Sigyn, the sword in her hand suddenly vanishing into thin air.
"To be compared to my bright child, it's such an honor." Pansin sa pula nitong mga mata ang tuwa.
Proud na proud ito sa anak, may naipamalas man siya o wala, hindi iyon magbabago. He loves his child like that.
"Duke Albert Vwinter, the current Commander of the Ferrucio Empire."
The brown haired man formally introduced himself na para bang hindi siya kilala ng mga kasama niya ngayon.
Sigyn hummed, going back to her seat. Naupo naman ang dalawang Vwinter sa magkabilang side ng kanilang Emperor na nakaupo sa pinakadulo ng lamesa just like Sigyn.
Sigyn placed her chin on her palm.
"I just want to remind you that we had a deal ten years ago, Mycroft. You are not allowed to drag my youngest child to your damn politics until he's 15. We both agreed that he will be able to decide for himself when he reaches that age. Are you now going back on that?"
"I'm not here to drag him to the Ferrucio Empire's business, Silviandesia. Just like what I said, I am here to meet my nephew." Kalmadong sagot ni Mycroft pabalik.
"Stop with the bullshit." Galit na si Sigyn ngunit hindi halata dahil nanatili siyang kalmado. "And stop calling him your nephew. That man is an only child."
"That man?" Natatawang komento ni Moriarty.
"That man you're talking about is my cousin, Silviandesia. Alam mo 'yan. Hindi na ko magtataka pa kung bakit alam mo ang tungkol doon dahil paniguradong ipinagkatiwala niya sa 'yo ang sikreto niya."
Maririnig kay Mycroft ang malakas nitong accent, hindi sanay sa lenggwaheng ginamit.
"That cousin of mine trusted you that much."
"You didn't answer my question." Kaagad na iniba ni Sigyn ang usapan. "Are you going back on your words, Mycroft?"
"Our agreement is indeed what you've said but we also agreed that I am to see him once something happens that might endanger his life."
"Are you telling me that my son is in danger?" She scoffed.
Mycroft sighed. "Do you know the 17th ruler of the Ferrucio Empire, Silviandesia?"
"Do I look like I care about your empire's shit or something?" Kunot noong tanong ni Sigyn. "Wala akong pakialam sa nangyari sa emperyo mo, Mycroft."
Hindi siya nito pinansin.
"The 17th Emperor is the middle child between the three brothers. The three brothers are so close with each other, they care about each other. It was supposed to be the eldest son to inherit the throne, but unfortunately, he died." Pagkwekwento niya.
