Chapter 216: From Master to Slave (17)
Since she was a child, Klais hated Beasts.
It wasn’t reading the stories that made her hate them like the other children.
‘He passed while fighting against the Beasts.’
It was because when her uncle who played with her had passed away, that was what her father told her when she asked why he died.
She hated Beasts from then on.
Once the seed of hatred was planted, it grew like a snowball rolling downhill. First, it was her uncle, then they took her aunt.
Soon, the family she loved began to pass away one by one, maternal and paternal side alike.
‘Why did brother die?’
‘...He was fighting the Beasts.’
More relatives died in battle than from a disease or accident. By the time she became an adult, she attended twenty funerals.
One day, this was what Klais asked her father.
