Departure

"Two days? That is quite sudden. Have you asked permission from your father?" Countess Lita glanced at her husband.

"He already asked, Lita. Didn't I tell you that I passed down the heirlooms of the Inanis Family to him?" Count Gabriel replied.

"Yes, you said that, but not this." Countess Lita shook her head, but then sighed softly as she rested a hand on her chest. "Are you… are you sure about this, Asher? Perhaps you can send this mercenary group and let them do it by themselves?"

"I'm afraid that I have to do this, mother." Lucius replied. "You must understand that this is a personal matter that I will not take lightly."

If Count Gabriel was someone who had been furious and reminded of the time when his mother was assassinated, Countess Lita was someone who nearly lost her son while the two of them were in the same roof.
