Chapter 445: It Is For The Best



The words shook Lady Henai to her bones. Her own brother, who knew how much pain she felt all these years, she thought her son was dead.

And now that he was back, this moment was the happiest she had ever been.

She knew some things were inevitable, but she at least found a semblance of peace in the fact that her son was not ready to face his father, or rather, didn't seem like he wanted to.

For her, that was enough; she just had to protect him until he was ready to face that part of his life. She had to prevent Reimgard from finding out.

Because the Emperor was right. He might be a bastard, but once the blood of Reimgard runs in a person's veins...

The snow-white hair, scarlet red eyes, pale beautiful skin, and sometimes ivory. They had a stereotypical look that made it undeniable that the blood of Reimgard ran in them.

So, she was making her own plans to protect her son. She just wanted to get him to the Central Plain as he wanted, and, of course, go with him.

But her brother, who understood her pain the most, had no sympathy for her.

She inhaled deeply and exhaled; the moment she did, all the pain and frustration that was evident in her eyes disappeared without a trace.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Then she opened her mouth and said, "I am not surprised. Elder brother has always been this way, even when I was a child."

She lowered her head a bit, a slight frown playing on her lips, "I'm just kind of disappointed."

Mariam looked at her, compassion wafting gently in her eyes, "So, what are you going to do now?" she asked.

Lady Henai breathed in and out again, but this time, rather softly, and responded with determination strongly evident in her voice.

"We will follow whatever plan Guilly has in mind." She turned her head to the Tower Sage.

Seeing her beautiful face and blue eyes radiate with so much determination, Guillever's heart couldn't help but begin to thump.

"So, great Tower Sage, what exactly is your plan?"

"There's only one thing we need to do." He started with a stern look at both Lady Henai and Mariam. "We need to get him out of this place, let him go back to the Central Plain, where his life... we will deal with the Emperor."

Lady Henai studied his expression for a couple of seconds, thinking deeply about his words. Then slowly, a realization crept in.

She slowly frowned as she asked, "What do you mean? Tell me you are not suggesting that he goes alone."

The Tower Sage looked at her with a dour expression, not saying anything at first.

Realizing those were exactly the words he meant, she trembled and knitted her brows into a stormy scowl.

"You can't be serious right now! How are you any different from my elder brother if you are asking me to abandon my son a second time?"

"My lady, he has been living in the Central Plains, right under Reimgard's nose, for the past fifteen years, and here he is. I'm sure he can live more. However, the moment you step foot into the Central Plains, all of Reimgard would know immediately. Seeing you with a white- haired kid would not help in any way. If you want to help him, you have to let him go."

Mariam, arms folded, looked at the Tower Sage blankly for a couple of seconds and turned to Lady Henai.

"My lady, he is right."

She trembled immediately she heard her words, almost falling down, but Guillever held her in his arms.

She shook her head, tears streaming down her face.

"Please, I don't want to let him go..."

"I'm sorry, my lady." Guillever shook his head and bit down on his lips.

"We have to think of his safety. He might be fifteen, but he's definitely not a kid; he got to you on his own and fought against the Emperor. I'm sure he can take care of himself. The best help you can give him is not bringing unnecessary attention to him."

They were right; Reimgard had eyes everywhere. No one might get suspicious about a white- haired kid with blue eyes since all of Reimgard's royalty are always white-haired with scarlet red eyes.

However, if Lady Henai is seen with him, it will attract interest and curiosity.

That was bound to end badly.

She also realized that they were telling the truth. It just sincerely hurt like hell that she found her son only to let him go again.

And this was all because of her brother's damned greed.

Mariam fixed her eyes on the Tower Sage, "So, what do you plan to do about that now? The Emperor, how will he not know?"

The Tower Sage sighed and walked forward, slightly opening the curtain of Northern's bed to check his state.

However, their eyes widened.

Lady Henai scurried over to the empty bed, "My son, my son, my son. Where is my son?!"

The Tower Sage frowned and looked distant for a second, then he held Lady Henai's arm, stopping her from thrashing the bed any further.

"Perhaps this is for the best."

The lady gave the Tower Sage a pale look of absurdity, causing him to lower his head slightly

as he explained.

"We didn't see him leave the room, so we can be rest assured that he is not in danger."

"Rest assured? What if someone used invisibility and took him away?"

Guillever straightened his head with confidence, "That is impossible, my lady. No one can

bypass my detection ability."

"Didn't he just do that?"

The Tower Sage looked around the room before responding.

"I never noticed because he left this space for another one."

Lady Henai paled even more, fuming with questions, "What does that even mean?"

Guillever was about to open his mouth to start talking, but his eyes caught the vicious glare in Mariam's eyes.

They obviously made the message clear to him, "You really want to start explaining all the magic art nonsense to her?"

Guillever was honest to a fault in certain regards. He was the kind of guy who didn't recognize rhetoric. Not that he wasn't intelligent, he was just an honest nerd.

He paused for a second and started again, "I'm sure he is trying to run away from this place. Perhaps he has heard our conversation. Why don't we just pave the way for him instead? This way, we can make it look like he escaped on his own and deal with the Emperor ourselves."

Lady Henai felt her strength drain as she sat on the bed.

Mariam gently walked closer to her and touched her shoulder, "The Tower Sage is correct. Don't worry, your son is alive. I promise that I will make sure both of you meet again."
