The gray demon's pupils suddenly contracted.
One side of his weeping visage still showed no reaction, but the other revealed a clear expression of agony.

The giant youth with white hair, white skin, and an amber cyclopean eye shining like the sun knelt on one knee.
He looked up at the statue of Grandma Ashes with a solemn face as if there were a light sparkling in his eyes.
—Midas Eternal.
My son. My heir... my successor.
The Eternal Duke of this generation.
Before the youth.
