"My father became the way he is, as a result of surviving among his brothers and relatives, and he was very aware of this, for this he decided to have only 1 wife and if he could, only have one child, that is how my brother Querin was born."
"My father did not want Querin to be like him, I suppose he saw it as an atonement, so he pampered him and raised him to be fair, or at least that was the plan, we already know how my brother ended up being someone arrogant , stubborn, adventurous and unfaithful."
"But what about me, if he just wanted to have a child, why am I here? Do you know Yulio? You should know, come on say it, without fear, no problems," Leryn finished speaking asking Yulio
"Well, yes, I apologize in advance for what I am going to say, but it is known that his mother a servant, intoxicated his father well ... this ..."
"Yes, if she slept with him, believe me it makes me much more ashamed to talk about them in that kind of situation," Leryn interrupted him and then continued.
"Now, the story tells that she did it to have me and have benefits, but this is a lie, the truth is that my father, like any man with power, did not resist the temptation, only that obviously to give a good image he blamed my mother... That bastard."
"Well, here I am, the fruit of an adventure, obviously as an illegitimate son I was going to be disowned, but my father again to show a good face, even against pleasure, see that they treat me well."
"I knew this because my mother told me on her deathbed, when I was 7 years old, there are no plans or anything here, she simply gave in to an illness."
"After this, I, even with the pain of my mother blinding me, faced my father alone, and do you know what happened?, He told me everything, not only that he raped my mother, but everything I am telling you, without lies or anything, and do you know why?"
"Well, I'll tell you what he told me when he finished telling me everything: 'Now that you know, what are you going to do, you are just a sad child, without connections or anything, who will believe you, who will listen to you, nobody, you have nothing to offer, you have no way to get revenge or do anything, so just sit back and enjoy your pathetic life as a wealthy kid. '
"I suppose I'm traumatized after this, fortunately your Crystal and my brother, who as a child were still good people, made me happy."
"But this didn't stay that way, the gods will know what my father thought, but after that, he would call me, he would teach me the dark side of politics if you want to see it that way, the only explanation he gave me was this: 'Querin is the representation of all the good that I never was, but when he governs he will realize that nothing is easy, so here you are, a perfect helper who works in the shadows. '
"As I told you, my father is not right in the head, sometimes he is good, sometimes he is bad, I never understood him today, but well here we are already reaching the end."
"Before his incident occurred, my father had sent me to study abroad a little, to build connections and that, you can imagine my surprise when I arrived and saw all this, what a disaster and even he himself recognized it after I faced him with him."
"He told me at the end: 'Yes, I suppose I overdid it' or something like that, anyway,the days passed, the months too, and Querin was a little crazy with his girlfriend, giving away gifts here and there, punishing almost innocent investors without regard, promoting giving more rights to the poor, well the latter is not a bad thing, only to cede the lands of the nobles to the common people just like that, or to force the big merchants not to fire the employees, I don't think it was the best idea .
"Anyway, my father can be crazy and love his son a lot, but he is not brute, for something this reign even with his madness has been maintained, so in view of all this, I name myself as his heir, in truth this me surprised; by the way, this was only a few days after Querin arrived from helping them.
"This was where everything went to misery, Querin was totally against, saying that he had the right and that in my hands this was going to be a tyranny or something like that, well I guess I will not be someone as charitable and good as my brother, but I don't see myself submitting my people and starving them.
"Well, around here you can imagine what happened, my brother tried to rebel by killing my father in the process, fortunately he had almost no support, so he ended up fleeing at the end and crowning myself as the King, but I decided to leave the latter, Secretly until this stabilizes, to this day we are looking for my brother and his men to bring them to justice."
"That would be the whole story, what did you think?" Leryn finished the story.
"I don't know what to say..." Yulio said.
"Me neither, there's a lot to digest," Crystal commented.
"I see, well it's understandable, this is very sudden, but don't stress, you can take it easy, I just wanted to let you know about our old relationship, but don't go commenting on the air, it would be poor."
"Yes, don't worry," said Crystal.
"No problems," Yulio said.
"Well, I'm glad, well, I suppose that would be everything for today, I have accumulated work, you know, knowing what awaits me, I feel respect for my father when all that paperwork is stalled, ah yes, the harvest festival will be celebrated soon, and the Palace like every year a party will be held, where you are invited, I hope to see you there."
"We are pleased with your invitation," Crystal said without further ado.
"Same," Yulio followed his wife, without much thought.
"Being that they are accepting just for being the King..., well it doesn't matter, abusing this a little isn't bad, well I think this is the farewell, they can now retire, by the way the invitation will be sent to them in these days."
Having finished the story, the young couple left with various thoughts and surprises on their minds, which kept them that way, until later when they were in the carriage on the way to the mansion.
"Yulio, now that we're alone, tell me what you think of all this," said Crystal.
"I... I see it all very crazy, but it's okay for us to talk about this," Yulio said.
"Yes, no problem, like I said, we are alone."
"Well, I don't know, this feels too unreal to be true."
"Yes, me too, I think similarly, but history shows us that these things happen, we have to accept it."
"Yes, at least it seems your name has been cleared, aren't you happy?"
But when she finished saying that, Crystal simply froze a bit before starting to cry a bit.
"I, I... yes..., I'm happy, how not to be, my parents are innocent, I'm very happy ..."
Yulio a little shocked to see that, with a small smile of affection, he wrapped Crystal in his arms for most of the way.
And once arrived, Crystal again in shape and without anything had happened, met for a moment in private with Yulio and Lier to tell them something.
"The truth is that he didn't trust Leryn, so Lier, very carefully investigate everything you can, it's an order."
