However, instead of telling him directly, they chose to keep the solution a secret from him because they wanted to keep him around to continue undergoing blood gene experiments. Even the magus who was sent to train him was specifically told not to tell him about this matter.

Upon hearing that, Emery took a deep breath to calm his turbulent emotions and stared at the middle-aged man, waiting for him to explain further. Seeing that he had calmed down, the Duke finally spoke again.
