Chapter 61- Nervous?

A few days have passed. After Henry's funeral, Lilia decided to remain with her mother for the time being. They were still in Awsperg and since the town was under risk, Bellarine assigned some soldiers around the mansion. 

Returning to the Duchy, Richard was busy in preparation for the Academy. He knew that the plot had somehow pushed to its destined path but some major changes have been brought. 

The death of Ethan's source of motivation. Rage fuels one with motivation but knowing that the Headless Puppet was slaughtered, would Ethan actually remain the same as he was canonically?

Not to talk about, he lost his mother who recovered from her illness. Losing a mother who was already on the verge of death was another thing. However, Ethan lost his family after being given the hope for a bright future. 

'Wait...so did the System intentionally force me to provide the potion so Ethan suffers more?!' The realisation made Richard widen his eyes in disbelief.
