Chapter 14
“Please... make sure our Namia gets into the Capital Academy.”
The place Dad took me was to his older brother—the Baron of Roafi.
“She’s a smart kid. Promise me. Promise you’ll let her get an education. This should be enough for you to move to the capital.”
Dad handed him an envelope, and as soon as the baron saw what was inside, he grinned brightly.
“Sure, don’t worry about it.”
“...I’m just worried because you were absolute trash as a kid. I can only hope you’ve become human since then.”
Looking back, Dad’s instincts were dead-on.
“Then add Namia to your family registry. She’s the same age as Juan—just say she’s his twin. It’s °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° not like anyone in the capital knows you. Who’s going to care if they’re real twins or not?”
Honestly, it was a decent plan.
When Juan enrolled in the Academy, they’d definitely ask, ‘What about the other twin?’
That would give me a natural opening to be enrolled too.
“I’m coming back. No matter what. I’ll come back for Namia.”
