CH504 Nostalgia and Reunion
***
As Kron followed the butler through the familiar corridors and halls of the castle mansion, he couldn't help but feel a wave of nostalgia wash over him.
A memory from the past surfaced in his mind.
It was a simple memory, really.
A time when he and his brother ran recklessly through the main corridor of the castle, their laughter echoing off the stone walls, while their mother chased after them, scolding and urging them not to hurt themselves.
Both he and his brother had shouted back at her not to worry—
And, of course, they hadn't slowed down in the slightest.
It was a small moment. But it was also one of the warmest memories Kron had of this castle.
A memory from a time when peace truly existed within these walls.
Since then… since their mother's death, everything had changed.
The warmth that once filled the castle had faded, replaced by a quiet, creeping cold.
