412 Family Reunion (Part 2)

"Farm a plot of land for all I care."

"There's no need to worry, dear." Elina stood up and hugged Lith from behind.

"We've known our lives were in danger since the day you were admitted into the academy, yet I never regretted that decision"

"Wait, you knew?" Lith was shocked.

"Of course we did, son." Raaz nodded.

"We aren't stupid. Also, Nana and Count Lark warned us multiple times when they asked for our help to convince you to take the entrance exams. We unanimously decided you deserved a chance at a better life. Me, your mother, and your sisters."

Lith didn't miss how his father had not mentioned Trion, even though he was still part of the family at the time. He inwardly sent Trion to farm a plot of land before forgetting about his existence again.

"You can't let your fears ruin a moment like this, dear." Elina kissed his head.
