Chapter 70
“If you’re thinking about taking advantage of Duke Eizen, then you’d better put away that thought. He might still be breathing, but we can’t really say that he’s alive.”
Rexid clicked his tongue and scolded me as if he misunderstood my sympathetic expression.
“Mmm, I see. No wonder he’s not well-known despite his unbelievable history. I didn’t even know of his existence until Owen filed him for me.”
“It’s no surprise there. For ten years after his wife went missing, he went around trying to find her himself, but…”
Rexid furrowed his brows and tapped the table twice as if he was recollecting his memories.
“For the following ten years, he hadn’t even left his house. I don’t even know if he’s alive right now.”
“That aside, you seem rather knowledgeable about the duke’s situation. I thought you weren’t interested in other people’s affairs.”
“My father was very fond of Duke Eizen, you see.”
“Oh, the former Emperor?”
