Chapter 275: Diere Arbins Story
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The story that Diere wanted to tell wasn’t actually all that complicated. From a certain point of view, it can even be considered an old and common one.
It’s because it’s a story of a girl who was rejected since birth, who then worked hard to try to earn the recognition of others.
In that story, the girl was considered a monster by those around her since she as little. It can be said that she experience the coldness and loneliness of the world.
The people around her were terrified of her.
Her parents were rarely home. One in particular never even looked at her like she’s their daughter. Instead, they considered her an expected offshoot that shouldn’t have existed.
Due to that, the girl had never had anyone who she could connect to. All she had was loneliness, emptiness, solitude, and darkness.
It’s because everyone considered her a monster that the people around her were unwilling to get close to her. Even less would dare to provoke her, as that’s something only an idiot would do.
Thus, the girl was all on her own the entire time. She wasn’t even allowed to leave the house, and she was either locked in her room or in the basement. The only place she was allowed to go to is a training field. Other than that, she’s unable to set one foot anywhere else.
Thanks to that, the girl could only harshly train herself. She even made herself a perfect and complete training plan, learned one perfectly matched skill after another, and worked hard on raising her level.
The girl naively believed that so long as she got strong enough, then one day, she’ll be able to control the “Oni” inside her and gain her family’s recognition.
Truth be told, due to the girl’s efforts, there were people who have noticed the talents that she displayed.
Thus, a portion of the members of the family were also of the opinion that they shouldn’t limit the girl’s potential. Even if the “Oni” inside the girl is extremely terrifying, terrifying things can still have their own value, and can be used in their own ways.
With those voices, the girl slowly gained some amounts of freedom.
The girl’s rarely home father would, during that time period, unexpectedly keep her with him.
It’s just in case the girl goes on a rampage, so that there will be someone capable of stopping her by her side.
Her father is also one of the top geniuses of the clan as well, to the point where he’s considered able to surpass his father, that is the girl’s grandfather, and inherit the family.
As thing naturally unfolded, since no one else had the confidence that they could stop the girl when she goes berserk, only the girl’s father stood forth. Thus, the girl’s father would, during that time, keep her with him at all times, moving about the clan grounds, palace, and the knight orders.
It’s in this situation that the girl finally got to know some people who dared to approach her.
One of them is the princess of the Kingdom, someone recognized as the Hero reborn and someone who will be the invincible and strongest human in the future.
One of them is a descendant of a great noble family. Although there’s nothing special about her strength, she does have a very calm mind.
There’s also one more person who’s rather mysterious. Not many people knew of her origins, but she always had a gentle smile. Even when the girl told her that she’s a monster feared by others, she had never distanced herself from the girl.
However, the good times didn’t last. The girl’s situation, which had finally turned better, had changed for the worse.
It all started with her grandfather’s death.
Due to the persistent injuries from the girl’s rampage, the one considered the pillar of the family had finally left the world.
The girl was consider the criminal behind it, and was treated as the incarnation of catastrophe and a rampaging monster. The people of the clan once again started voicing opinions about how dangerous she is, and that she should be shut away in the basement forever and never let out.
However, they didn’t succeed this time.
After all, the girl wasn’t just on her own now. She had the princess of the Kingdom and the descendant of a great noble family with her.
They used their own authorities to interfere, preventing the clan from restricting with her freedom.
Thanks to that, the girl luckily escaped disaster.
However, what happened after that utterly dragged that girl into hell.
It was an incident from ten years ago.
Something major happened with the Capital then.
The [Assassination Branch] of the Old Demon Faction infiltrated the Capital and begun a massacre.
Originally, this shouldn’t have been possible.
The Capital is covered by a very high leveled barrier. It’s basically impossible for demons to get into the Capital without anyone noticing.
Even if they did have a very powerful spatial magic user, allowing them to pierce the barrier, there’s no way that they could have brought so many people past the barrier without raising all kinds of alarms.
At most, the mage might be able to enter the Capital themselves or maybe destroy the barrier around the Capital.
However, the Palace will definitely notice the moment the barrier is destroyed and proceed to fight back in a frontal battle. With the strength of the National Knight Order and the Royal Knights, even thousands of Old Demon Faction will be able to do nothing more than be defeated.
However, what happened instead was the worst possible case.
Thousands of Old Demon Faction assassins manged to infiltrate the Capital without anyone being the wiser.
The reason this happened was simple.
They had someone working with them from the inside.
Someone within the Capital was working with them.
And that person is very highly placed within the Capital.
That person was the girl’s mother.
“What did you say?”
When he head Diere’s words, Shien was flabbergasted.
In response, Diere was utterly indifferent.
“You didn’t mishear.” Diere spoke indifferently, “It’s that mother who worked with those of the [Assassination Branch].”
“Why?” Shien spoke somewhat disbelievingly, “Is she a demon race spy or something?”
“Of course not.” Diere denied as she continued on calmly, “You know the status of the Arbin family. Thus, the wife for the next head of the family must also come with quite the status as well. Given that, how could she possibly be a demon spy?”
Since her status is very high, there shouldn’t be any reason for her to act like a dog of the Old Demon Faction, right?
At least unless she’s being threatened or if there are other advantages for her in doing so.
That mother that Diere referred to did it because of the later reason.
“Do you know why that mother never looked at her own daughter as anything like a daughter, but rather as something extraneous that never should have appeared?” Diere spoke self-deprecatingly, “It’s because that mother never married out of her own will. Instead, she only married in as a pawn that the noble of a bordering nation tried to place into the palace.”
“Neighboring nation?”
Shien was stunned.
“That’s right.” Diere spoke coldly, “She’s a noble daughter of the Ragna Empire to the north.”
The Ragna Empire is a country directly neighboring the Mitra Kingdom.
In the past, the two nations have had wars against each other.
Although, in the end, the two ended up making a non-aggression treaty and stopped warring, there is a particular saying that pertains very well to the situation: The war didn’t disappear, it was just kept below the surface.
That country’s people were still gazing hungrily at the Kingdom. That’s why they’d marry their own noble daughter over. On the surface, they claimed it to be a political marriage for reconciliation and peace, but in reality, it’s to use her as a spy to gather information and secrets of the Kingdom and to act as needed.
In other words, that mother never considered herself an Arbin. Instead, her heart had always belonged to her home nation – The Ragna Empire.
For such a person, the existence of the girl is only a “thing” born out of her sacrifice in completing her job, not family that she should have any feeling toward.
Never mind the fact that the girl has the blood of the enemy nation’s nobility, so there’s no way said mother would acknowledge her.
Just like that, the mother who was foreign spy received orders from the Empire and, in order to cause chaos in the Capital and weaken her enemy nation, she secretly let the [Assassination Branch] into the Capital.
And in the end, the girl’s father discovered this matter.
In the end, that father chose justice over all else and, right before the girl’s eyes, personally chopped off her mother’s head.
Thus, the girl was considered the sinner’s descendant and was met with the hatred of other nobles. She was also completely rejected by her clan and, in the end, left that family.
This is that girl’s – Diere Arbin’s story.
