Kiyomori slammed his fist on the table, "Those bastards should not dare to blame my precious little brother! We all know the Minamoto family is only using him as an excuse."
Ryu smiled at his elder brother's protectiveness. "If Father is starting a war, then why are you here Kiyomori? Shouldn't you be helping father?"
Kiyomori looked at Ryu with determination, "I am here because Father wants me to bring you back."
"Eh?" Ryu tilted his head, "I am not going back. I've already made that clear with Father."
Kiyomori sighed and sat back, "I feared you would say that. I also told Father that you would refuse to come back. Not even a war could bring you home."
"Did father give up? Or did he tell you to forcefully bring me back?"
Both were reasonable. It only depended on Ryu's father's mood to which one he would choose.
Panzram heard Ryu's question and immediately tense up. His feral eyes turned fiercer at the thought of someone stealing his precious rabbit.
