Chapter 69 The Tragedy Of The White Brothers



It was the afternoon and the sun over the heads burned brightly in the sky. The Adenberd city was bustling as always, especially not after Ethan had returned from home after one of his usual outings.

The Castle was being decorated and the food was being reserved from the granary for the big event that was going to happen in just a matter of days.

Meanwhile, the mansion was quiet in the afternoon as everyone was resting after having done their morning routine.

Selene however, was heading towards Ethan\'s room as she was summoned by him just moments ago.

The sound of a silent knock rang right after the creaking of the door opening.

"Maya, Sera, thanks for the tea. I have some work with Miss Selene so you may leave." Ethan said with a slight smile.

The two girls who had lost their mother because of the assassination attempt now served him as his personal maids. Even though their mother was unfortunate, their life had been set to be on a comfortable track by Ethan.

The two girls who were called Maya and Sera both bowed deeply and left as Selene came forward.

"How can I help you, Young Master?" Selene said as she bowed even deeper than both Maya and Sera almost prostrating herself.

"Be casual, there\'s no need for such formalities," Ethan said calmly, feeling inwardly awkward.

"Yes!" Selene nodded.

"Well then, I asked for you to come here for a very important matter. I need some answers from you." Ethan said tapping the armrest of his chair from his left hand and holding the tea cut from his right.

"You can ask me anything, I will answer truthfully if it\'s within my capability!"

"Very well, I wish to know more of my stepmother and Luce\'s mother as well. Where are the both of them?" Ethan asked straightforwardly, not beating around the bushes.

"That is…" Selene muttered in hesitation not expecting this kind of question.

"I know that no one talks about it… And that\'s why I\'m asking you. There is no need to fret, God is With You!" Ethan reassured with his same usual antics.

Selene nodded and began reciting the truth that many knew as \'The Tragedy of The White Brothers\'.

First of all, Selene began telling Ethan about Luceryc\'s mother or Alier\'s wife. Alier met her in the borderlands of the Atrana Kingdom when he was young. She was the daughter of a mere baron but despite that Alier fell deeply in love with her. He was infatuated with her so much that he stayed back for a few years to woo her.

And he was also successful in his endeavor as the girl too fell in love with him.

After that came the hard part of convincing Alier\'s parents. Marriage between a Ducal House and a lowly Baron House? It was inconceivable to imagine at that time. Yet despite much opposition from his Family, Alier managed to do it.

Both of them got married. Alier\'s wife, that is Lady Rose was a devout believer of the Church and she lived her life accordingly. She was the perfect wife that a man could ever hope for. beautiful, virtuous, obedient, and graceful. She had it all!

Not long after their marriage, she became pregnant with Alier\'s child. But that\'s when the happy tale ends. As the months passed, her health slowly began degrading. It was nothing serious really but, it was still something.

When the time for Luceryc\'s birth came, she wasn\'t doing any good either. Despite not having much strength in her body and going through the excruciating pain and agony of childbirth, she successfully gave birth to Luceryc.

Luce was alive, healthy, and well. But unfortunately, his mother was not. Due to medical complications, the delivery was extremely harsh and strainful in the first place, on top of that the small health issues that she had been going through proved to be fatal as life was completely sucked out of her with Luce\'s birth.

Not long after giving birth, she died—only sharing a few words with Alier before the time was out leaving him with immense grief from which he did not recover for a few years.

This was the tragedy of Alier—the first of \'The Tragedy of White Brothers\'.

The other one was of course Albaer. His case was even more tragic and quite infamous for various reasons.

Albaer\'s, or rather his first wife\'s tragedy took place a few years before Alier got married.

Shirin\'s mother was not from anywhere near the Atrana Kingdom. She came from the east where the Kingdom had no influence, and to create this influence a few political marriages were arranged.

Albaer\'s marriage was one of them. His bride was the daughter of a Duke from the Eastern Kingdom of Sikkim. It was a prosperous Kingdom that was on the rise creating its separate power in the Eastern Continent.

Shirin\'s mother was extremely patriotic, free-spirited, and fierce. She was a warrior trained in the Eastern Sword Arts quite famous for her technique.

Obeying the decree of her King and the wishes of her father, she \'married\' into the House of White.

The whole affair was quite lavish and time-consuming as the distance between her homeland and the Atrana Kingdom was a lot.

There was quite the scandalous lore behind this marriage as well that became very famous among the populace. And it went like this,

According to tradition, The groom that was Albaer went to the bride\'s family with a lavish procession to bring her back home with him for the wedding. Ethan thought that the person who thought of that absurd tradition definitely must have been braindead.

Before the wedding, Both Albaer and Lady Shina got along quite well. They were both short-tempered and fierce so their wavelength matched pretty well.

Before the procession left with the bride though, an outrageous thing happened. It was truly as outrageous as it sounded and anyone who heard it would doubt their ears. The tale sounded exactly like that one generic trope from those cultivation webnovels on earth but it was indeed a real event that had happened.
