"I have a sister who became the emperor's consort," Old Kay said succinctly in response.
This aroused Malin's curiosity even more. Scratching the stubble on his face, Malin asked, "Is that guy by any chance from the Roencalm family?"
"No, the surname is Mullier. But the Roencalm family you mentioned does exist; however, that is His Grace the Duke of the East, and has no relation with this clown." Old Kay became somewhat agitated when he mentioned the name Roencalm, and his agitation seemed to spread to Kasdav. The young man sighed, "His Grace Duke Roencalm lost his three sons in the previous retreat, and because of his sacrifice, my father finally chose to stand up. Though I don't understand why he led everyone to stand on the death ground, I do understand he wanted more children to return to their fathers... I understand his intentions, though I don't understand him. Grandpa is dead, but I am still here."
