The king of the prosperous and happy Prugian Kingdom.

The former King...

Neil Cryox Severgen, who is praised for his hard work during his reign.

He handed over the throne to his mighty strong first child, Henry Cryox Severgen.

But, one secret which no one knew.

The former King had an illegitimate son, which was born from a maid.

The illegitimate child's name is Herman Cryox Severgen.

Nobody, not a single soul in the noble society of Prugian Kingdom knew about his existence.

Only the former King, King Henry and his advisor knew.

But, he abused his illegitimate son too much.

He would lock him up inside a room of his own palace and always bit him by whip or stick.

He would cry in hunger and pain.

All maids and servants would believe that, the room, where Herman was locked up, is haunted by the late Queen's spirit.

He always used said to him.

Neil Cryox Severgen (Henry's Father)

“𝐘𝐎𝐔'𝐑𝐄 𝐀 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐄 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐌𝐄!!”

Neil Cryox Severgen (Henry's Father)

“𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃'𝐕𝐄 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐒𝐋𝐗𝐓 𝐌𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑!!”

Neil Cryox Severgen (Henry's Father)

“𝐀 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐆𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐗𝐒𝐓𝐗𝐑𝐃!!”

King Henry was already trying to protect the innocent boy from his psycho father.

He didn't want his innocent brother to be a victim like his own mother, the late Queen.

The psycho former king had an abusive nature.

He wanted someone to be a thing on which he would uproot his all frustrations on.

And, the late Queen was the first victim of his abusiveness.

Henry witnessed his father abusing his mother.

One day, the limit of the boy's control crossed out.

And, he killed his old father brutally with a knife.

Henry came and witnessed the scene.
