Chapter 67 Why Did I Provoke Him?

For many nobles, including Dalion, from the day they were born, they already had everything.

A privileged family background, exceptional education, power to treat the populace like pigs and dogs, like-minded friends of the same status...

It was undoubtedly a marvelous thing.

So marvelous that even minor blemishes could be grudgingly ignored.

Yet even so, despite being born with what others dream of, their lives were still far from truly carefree.

Because there were rules to follow.

Those rules were not the laws of the Saint Laurent Empire, but rather the invisible and intangible rules among the nobility.

For instance, always leave some room for maneuver.

At least outwardly.

Even the Mosgla family, after tormenting the Bartleion family so severely, still chose to spare Lynn's life, merely exiling him to the borderlands.

As for the later attempts on his life, they were actually secretly orchestrated by a small faction within the family.
