He was a boy who looked about twelve years old, dressed neatly in a school uniform with bright gray hair that could easily be mistaken for silver. His face was slightly pale, as if he hadn’t been in the sun much, and although his frame was large and sturdy, he was so thin that he looked frail. His eyes were an amber color, completely different from Elysia’s.

Celian’s gaze, which had been watching his sister in the arms of a stranger moments ago, was already narrowed with suspicion.

The siblings seemed to have lost their words, overwhelmed by their individual shocks.

No, this isn’t right…

Elysia’s expression as she looked at Celian was one of shock and despair, beyond words.

She wanted to accuse someone of having planned this. Her protest rose to her throat like a torrent but was barely held back at the tip of her lips.

Had it been Hadeon, he would have heard Celian’s footsteps approaching from outside the door. Instead, without giving her any notice, she ended up showing her brother what she never wanted him to see.

“Ciel… it’s been so long. Have you been well?”

Elysia managed to calm her heart and approached Celian. However, the child, like a wild dog meeting a lion, was bristling with tension, unable to take his eyes off Hadeon.

Unlike Elysia, Celian was a full gray wolf beastman. It was natural for him to be tense in front of an adult like Hadeon.

“Sis….”

Why did it have to be now? Elysia despaired internally at the worst timing of their meeting.

It was then that Hadeon spoke.

“Are you this woman’s brother?”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Celian flinched and stepped back, as if a shiver had run down his spine. His brows furrowed quickly. The boy bared his teeth, expressing hostility like a wild animal.

“Sis, who is this man?”

Elysia hesitated, unable to say anything. While she was hesitating, Hadeon looked down at her brother indifferently and spoke briefly.

“I’ll leave as you asked, Elysia. I can’t tell you to have a good time with your brother.”

With a sneer on his lips, Hadeon walked away, passing by Elysia who stood frozen and Celian who was still on high alert.

After the siblings disappeared from view, Hadeon dismissed his followers and walked alone down the hallway.
