Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man. Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind? Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake. Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era. And the madness.

Why did someone want to kill every member of the Mischael family?

Status? The Mischael family had no significant status, and even if the king was preparing to select a new lord for Carterburg, it wouldn't be from the Mischael family.

Money, indeed, the Mischael family was rather wealthy, but they knew all too well that without power to match their wealth, it was akin to seeking death. Therefore, among the nobles, the Mischael family was known instead for its 'poverty.'

When Mischael first learned this secret, he couldn't understand it, until he read about the history of this city in the library.

Only then did he realize... this was why the Mischael family suffered.

Why someone would 'kill then be quick about it.'

"Why, am I not your child?" Mischael poured himself a glass of wine and raised it to the tombstone.

Why, knowing the family could fall at any moment, would they still give birth to a sister.
