Chapter 102: Honeymoon (1)
Life flashed before her eyes.
Aimee witnessed her upbringing from a third-person perspective. She saw her small self getting abandoned by her mother, who had given up on her after finding out that her mana origin was weaker than commoners and that the noble black mana of their royal household wasn't flowing in her veins.
Perhaps the expectations had been high from the start because of Aimee's elder sister, Else, whose aptitude for the household's skills was as perfect as the black mana she had been born with.
The more talented descendants, the more strength.
The more strength, the more fame.
The more blood ties, the more power.
Henceforth, Aimee's mother was deeply disappointed by Aimee's prospects and that she couldn't learn and carry on their family's traditions. In her eyes, developing Aimee was no longer worth it, leaving Aimee to fend for herself.
