Chapter 353 - The Fated Ruler

Years passed, and Ricky, once a quiet boy with a fascination for flowers, grew into a strong and capable young man. His mind sharpened by the art of war, he eagerly absorbed the spells and tactics his father, Jerrick, taught him. Despite his growing prowess, Ricky maintained a balance between his warrior training and moments of levity, seeking solace and amusement from his fun-loving uncle William. The bond between them was strong, and William, ever the playful and doting uncle, became Ricky's refuge from the more rigid expectations of his role as the heir to the Theodulf bloodline.
