This Time, I Became the Fiance of a Duke’s Daughter. But She is Rumored to have Bad Personality, and Ten Years Older

"No way, is that the beginning of things?

"I don't know. I'm just certain he didn't know anything about the blood that runs through him. Did you dare not inform my mother, or did she die before I informed her? But, you know, that kid needed to know. My late mother said you were a worthy man."

"So, no... So the Duke of Hagendorf has been trying to revive his original ancestors since then?

"No. I taught the witches of the demonic powers, the first ancestors, and the first ancestors, but I didn't tell them anything unnecessary. I want you to think, I don't want to revive my ancestors."

"Well, why not?

"Mother, she read your notebook and found out everything I had hidden."

"When was that?

"He was about to be Jared now."

If Jared's memory is certain, the Duke of Cassandra Hagendorf is twenty-eight. In other words, for more than a decade now, we will have known about our original ancestors. The question therefore arises.

"Answer me, Rasmus Loewood. Why are you telling me to kill the Duke of Hagendorf now?

I've always lived to kill my ancestors.

"... that's not the word of the offspring. I'm sure the original ancestors will love it."

Though a completely different word came back from the answer I wanted, I didn't dare to ask again.

"It's just that our ancestors are already dead, and our sealed souls have vanished."

"Wait. Then there's no resurrection, is there?

"I was relieved once, too. The original ancestors can be resurrected, even if their souls are extinguished, as long as they have their own vessels. I think it's okay to say that humans with the qualities that make them vessels are also part of the original ancestors."

"The more you ask, the more troublesome he is."

Only once, the boy sees his fiancée's face. To her, and to herself, is the blood of her original ancestors. Until now, the existence of an ancestor who never cared or thought about it is abominable.

If my power as a magician is due to the blood of my ancestors, I want to abandon everything as a magician on this occasion.

"I hope you don't say that. My ancestors tried to come back to life worried about the future."

"Do you know that? Mostly, I don't like it. Did your ancestor Sama think the future would work out if he hadn't been resurrected?

The world continues even without its original ancestors.

The demonic powers may have perished, but it is not only the people of their original ancestors who live on the continent.

"In the days of the original ancestors, witchcraft varies from region to region, country to country. There's no foundation like now. There were no rules, and there were places where those who could use magic abused and dominated those who could not. Not really, but it wasn't a good time."

I know that much. There are no details left about the original ancestors, but if we look at the literature, we can see about the continental circumstances of the time when the original ancestors were active.

As far as Jared knows, Rasmus is right. There seemed to be many countries and tribes where the strong unilaterally controlled the weak, and of course some were sheltering the weak, but not too many.

Even the Weathered Kingdom, which had been at war until more than a decade ago, would be as peaceful as paradise from that time on.

"It was the first ancestors who helped, gathered and put together the weak. Even magic wouldn't have developed without her. That's not all. He was superior in combat, technical, agricultural, everything, and great in character. When she was old, the people were anxious. She couldn't have been kind enough to leave a people like that to die, to leave a child behind, to leave a loved one behind."

"But you did not resurrect such a sweet beginnings"

"Yeah. My ancestral children wanted her to sleep in peace."

"... wasn't it to avoid a dispute?

A little different from what the sunstorm said, I see him. The dragon prince just shrugged his shoulder like trouble.

"I won't deny that either. Fighting a multiracial race was a good place by then. He's been rubbing it a long time to pull or attack. But, you know, that's second to none. Our descendants didn't bring us back to life because they were grateful to their ancestors."

"No, bring him back to life."

"But when I'm back, the battle awaits. My ancestors fought too much already. How could you want her to fight any more, losing so many friends, sacrificing herself and still fighting for someone else?

Finally got to the point. Why the original ancestors were not resurrected, and why do you want to stop the resurrection of the original ancestors?

That's just to keep someone in peace who kept fighting hard for someone while making many sacrifices in times of war.

"Some voices didn't want to fight like a dragon's point of view. It's also true that if she had, she would have fought. That's why there shouldn't have been a resurrection. We, then human beings and descendants, kept praying that our ancestors would continue to sleep in peace without waking up."

But Rasmus continued with a bitter face.

"The original ancestors continue to hope for resurrection. She who is dead does not receive the wishes of the people, nor the feeling of thinking of the parents of the children. So she acts even if she dies for the sole purpose of resurrecting."

"... how sad"

"Olivier."

"Then no one will be saved."

"Thank you, Olivier. You just think so, and now I'm just a little saved."

The first fathers want to revive their people and their children. The people and their descendants want to keep their ancestors asleep.

Olivier's right, it's a grand tour where no one can be saved.

"You sound like an idiot. It's always someone else."

"That's true. Perhaps it would have been nice if there had been one person who could only think about himself."

It's Lucas Gallagher that comes to mind. He fought for selfish reasons. I tried to fulfill my desires, even at the expense of my children. But even that could have been guided by its original ancestors.

Whatever means we use, I suppose the obsession of our ancestors in trying to fulfill the resurrection is just because they worry about their people and their children.

I felt sorry for the departed who kept wandering unaware of the fact that the demonic powers had already perished.
