“The following summer, the previous King went on a summer vacation with only the immediate royal family. On the way to the royal palace, the royal family visits a certain monastery. You know what happened next, even if I don’t tell you.”
An explosion rocked the chapel, claiming the lives of the former King and several of his heirs in an instant. This devastating event left a lasting impact and remains a topic of discussion even after nearly three decades.
Given that the previous King’s body was discovered amidst the wreckage, specifically beneath a fallen cross, rumors circulated suggesting divine wrath upon the royal family. However, it was ultimately revealed that the attack was orchestrated by the rebels.
“How the hell did the rebels know the King’s movement, which is top secret?”
For decades, the current king has been trying to figure it out, but it’s still a mystery.
“I was curious, so I researched it. The Commander was among the people in charge of security at the time.”
“What is wrong with that? I’ve already gone through an official investigation and haven’t faced any charges. Accusation is a felony.”
Leon ignored the Commander’s order and continued in two incidents that seemed far apart: the mistress and the assassination.
“Shortly after the incident, Nora Watson went back to her hometown to take care of her ailing mother, and disappeared. The woman, who was in fact married, gave birth to the Commander’s daughter and raised her as her husband’s child.”
The Commander’s eyes began to shake again.
“Her husband would have known that he was not his child. He must have been the one who instructed the woman to become Commander’s mistress.”
Leon asked, pointing at the woman’s photo with his index finger.
“Do you know this woman’s real name?”
The moment he put her real name on his lips, the blood disappeared from the man’s face, who foresaw that his fate would change. Leon clearly pronounced the name, which he always chewed through and gnashed his teeth on, tone by tone.
“Angela Riddle.”
The blue-green eyes were stained blue with fear. It was no different from the eyes he saw in the annex before he came here.
“The one who killed my father is also Riddle.”
The Commander suddenly tried to close the file. However, his hand, which was trembling enough to be clearly visible to Leon, could not pick up the paper and kept slipping.
Even his fingertips were as pale as his face.
“There is a line that must not be crossed, even if we commit a crime. That’s a really good thing to say.”
Leon leisurely collected the evidence of the Commander’s infidelity, which was far more deadly than his own, and fastened the invisible dog collar around the Commander’s neck.
“Yes, that’s right. I kept a rebel locked up in the torture chamber and used her privately.”
“….”
“A rebel with rare blue-green eyes… proof that the Commander unknowingly participated in the King’s assassination.”
When it was revealed that the rebel Leon had imprisoned was his illegitimate child, the Commander had a face of a man who was thrown a grenade with the pin pulled out in front of him.
“D*mn it…”
Soon, the elderly man’s face contorted and he groaned, clutching his brown hair, which had been straightened with pomade.
