Chapter 74 - The Myth of the Throne

"Yes" he replied with a more mutual face then the rage before.

Just when I thought I calmed him down he up and left the room with the door closing behind him. An instant tension was felt and all eyes were on my parents and Althgar, these eyes weren't expecting more information as no hands were up in the silence, rather they were trying to stab him with a gaze so sharp it was the definition of staring daggers. Althgar didn't seem bothered by it, he just sat there mutually, this was unlike my parents who are only calm in the surface but fuming inside at the accusation that was true.

"There is one more part of history we never told you, this one is probably one of the answers to your questions that you asked yourself at around half way through the year."

This was his bribe to get us to stop glaring at him and to listen. It was a good bribe and I still remember that question clearly, I couldn't do any research on it because I knew that there wouldn't be any information, they also cut our internet when they realised that we could hack. Everyone had a digital footprint, even Althgar, therefore there is no reason for the a whole family not to have one. The Kamada family, and my presumed head of that family is, Yuki.

I haven't the chance to ask about the nice one, I still don't know his name but he and Yuki seem to be the only ones who don't hate me.

"Your shadow guards are from a prestigious family, the Kamada, they are the only family in a hidden class called the noble guards. This was only quite recent that it happened to be, only 10,000 years ago.

I, am part of the royal family, the Daemon, this was also a recent turn of events a few centuries ago.

Now I will tell you the ancients that we are from. I am a descendant of the faerie hound and the Kamada are the descendants of the Kamaitachi. I trust you will search them up in your own time, now our history of the throne is full of hidden bloodshed, remember what is done can never be forgotten. This is the myth of the throne.

A short while ago, there was never a royal family, there were three noble families and two noble guard families. The two noble guard families were the Kamada and the Daemon and the three noble families are the ones we have now.

One specific generation of the Daemon, the head fell in love with the daughter of Coltus. They were both spirit born and on the way to becoming heads of the families. Since there was no rule about not marrying into other noble families back then they got together and married. Right before they married they both agreed they wanted a child of their own making so they carried out sexual interaction. The next day they married, then a child was send down.

When the day came to birth, only one child was there. There wasn't another child. They tested the little boy and it was confirmed that he was a spirit born, they then tested with the doctor and they confirmed it to be their biological child. This little boy was the biological son of two spirit born and was a spirit born himself.

This rare occurrence lead him to be more powerful then the other nobles. He became spoilt and arrogant, thinking that he had the power over all of them. He wanted to force himself up into a higher position. The other noble families were concerned so they requested for the Kamada family, otherwise known as the family of assassins, to intervene in the matter.

Since he was a powerful young man, he beat the single members as they one by one tried to assassinate him.

They finally decided to just go all out and wage a war against the whole Daemon family. Since the young man's parents were overindulgent, they dragged the whole family, included the branch members who had nothing to do with this, into the battle. The noble families all sided with the Kamada and the war went on for 50 year. Generation after generation, they all fought, until the Kamada were in their last leg, they were beaten by the young man who then took to the throne and the other noble families then considered their choices and made the conclusion that they had to live, for the sake of order. With the decision made they all submitted to the young man of daemon who had lost both his wife and sanity in the battle. The Kamada eventually also submitted and stayed as the only noble guard family with a hatred for the daemon.

This is why the Kamada and the Daemon have no branch family members, this is also why the rule of marriage outside of noble family was created, this is why the Kamada dislike the Daemon and this is why I am on this throne of bloodshed and guilt. "

That was one hell of a story time. That is also a good reason to hate the Daemon, so why do they hate me? Althgar said that his ancient was a faerie hound and they called me a hound. Does his mean that... I'm not a Coltus? That would explain the abnormality in my potential, it's not at all like Dominic's who is an actual Coltus. Does this mean I'm from Althgar's lineage? No, I'm probably getting ahead of myself. A birth mix up like that can't be by accident.

I put my hand up but I was never answered, I got a shake of a head from Althgar and I swear he whispered to me, not the time.

If I am a faerie hound then the shadow guards have all the right to hate me and despise me, so why does Yuki and the other one think differently. Got to ask him before the end of this week. Might as well check later tonight.

"I think that's enough information, Kamada, you can escort them back to their rooms. "

With a voice full of guilt, he gave the command, you could see the daggers now, openly stabbing at him. All the Kamada now know that we know and can show what they feel. All except for one.

"Let's go then,"

He said, it was the nameless one. Might as well ask him now.

"What is your name?"

A straight up question, no dodging this. I've got you.

"Kamada Yuri, you've already met my twin right? Kamada Yuki."

Right then I realised, he has such a feminine voice compared to his brother, guess twins really are two sides of a spectrum.

"Nice to meet you Yuri,"
