　Maybe I'm losing my mind writing to a dead person. But I wanted to write this before I die.

　You must hate me. I am the cause of your death. Don't worry. I'll be on my way to you soon. Then you can beat me up all you want. I know I was a shitty father. What's the point in saying anything now?

　I just want to say this. I cared about you. The only woman I ever loved most in my life was your mother, Karen. No lover could ever surpass her. Luke's mother, Julie, was aware of that, and she abhorred you.

　Strangely enough, you never complained. You could have lamented that he ruined your life, but you did what I told you to do and supported this country.

　You are the only thing Karen left me. I realized that when I lost the one thing that meant more to me than anything else. I wish now that we had talked more while she was alive.

　Will, if I could see you again, I would hug you as a little boy and say "I love you".

　Grandpa was holding a letter tightly and trembling slightly. The king was just watching Jicchan in silence.

　I don't know what the letter said, but I guess it must have said something good. I think so, seeing Jicchan's expression that he seems to have gotten over something.

　Well, he wouldn't write something derogatory about his son in his last letter, would he?

　Grandpa closed the letter and gave a small laugh.

　That's all he said about the letter.

　I mean, it's rare to hear Jichan say such a line. I don't mean to be rude, but I can't imagine Jicchan talking about women or love no matter how hard I try.

"Yes, it is. I wasn't a worldly man. Maybe that's why my mother was distorted like that.

　A small silence is created.

　Grandpa and the king both seem to be reminiscing. Not all of them must be bad memories. I'm sure there are some good memories, if not many. .......

　I don't have many memories of my mother and father, but I have many memories of Alicia.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　No one can ever take those memories away from me. I'm sure that when I get old and senile, the memories of my time with her will remain with me. It is an eternal treasure that will never disappear.

　Thinking of this, I miss her so much.

　In response to the words coming out of the king's mouth, everyone turns their attention to him.

"Brother, I ask you again. Do you intend to be the king of this country?

　Jicchan is a little lost at the king's words. He wanted to be, but he couldn't. I could see the conflict between the two.

"There is no precedent for a person who cannot use magic to become king, though.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If there is no precedent, why don't you just create a new one?"

　He said this in response to Jicchan's words. He looked at me as if he was surprised for some reason.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I only said that because I want Jicchan to be the king of this country.

　...... I don't think he'll become a dictator and torment the people of this country the moment he becomes king. If he did, it would be interesting to see his dark fall.

　No, Alicia is starting to make me think that people are evil. Well, in Alicia's case, she's becoming a good person.

The three who were exiled to Laval. Alicia's grandfather is one of them.

　Alicia's,grandfather...... grandfather!

　I've never met him before, and I thought he was already dead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Maybe he's already dead, though."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What, you think he might be dead?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... That's right. You haven't heard from them since they left for Laval. We can't confirm they're alive. This country has never been big on diplomacy in the first place.

　But I guess the three who supported this country are alive somehow.
