Chapter 51: Xavier Astraeus Zenith
"You did some digging?!" Xavier breathed hitched. "That’s... not possible. No one knows... no one should know my father’s full name. Even in the village, only a few of them know, mostly the council of elders."
"Yes, it was hard to find information about you or the village. Since the data is not available anywhere. Except... for one place."
Xavier’s mind raced. ’It is unlikely that someone from the village has betrayed us. Such a thing or even the concept doesn’t exist in the village. And of course, father would have known about it if that was the case. Unless father lets it... no, father wouldn’t do that since it’s related to the goddess and his prophethood.’
"You don’t have to be so serious about it. I can tell you from where I obtained the information. And of course, no one else would know it through me. I am not your enemy."
Cassian had a smile on his face, and his eyes matched it.
Xavier shook his head. "No need. I know where you got the information from."
After a brief pause, he added, "My mother."
"Yes. Since she registered for her marriage, she added your father’s name."
"Did you meet her?" Xavier asked with an emotionless face. He didn’t seem curious to know the answer, but it was important for him to know.
