The town of Galdberg is in a buzz, people have crowded on the streets and going on top of roofs just to get a glimpse of one man. He was sitting on a majestic white horse and exuded the aura of a hero, he wore full silver body armor and had a sword at the right side of his waist and a pike hanging behind him. This man is Edward Lancaster...

One of the seven dukes of the Ardia Kingdom he is well known as the hero duke or the kind noble and as the father of Julius Lancaster. Unlike many nobles he is the chivalrous type that is inclined on justice and equality. But although the father may be like that the son wasn't.

Edward forced Julius to enter the Academy to learn more about the world. He wanted his son to learn about the job of a noble and a commoner. He didn't want his son to be like those other nobles who use their power for their own selfish desires but instead be a great leader to his subjects.

He regularly recieved good reports from Ben and all his other attendants he sent to monitor his son's activities. But what he didn't know was that his son bribed these attendants of his and used his power as a noble to do what his father despised the most.

Of course Edward didn't know about this and was heading to the Lancaster manor with a trace of anger in his eyes not knowing all the crimes his son has done.

"Open the gates!"

"Who goes there!"

Two guards woke up from their slumber and looked outside. When they saw the face of the person calling out their face turned ashen as they trembled in fear.

Edward saw the tow guards byt the gates.

"I said open the gates!"

"Ye-Yes!"

The two guards immediately unlocked the insanely large gate and pushed the two parts open. When the gate was opened Edward contiued forward, but unlike before he urged his horse and made it dash towards the manor.

"Do you think the captain and the others already left?"

One of the guards asked his companion as they saw the Duke their big boss head towards the manor at full speed.

"I hope so"

The companion answered as he leaked out a small sigh.

"Well even if they did, we would still be caught"

He continued as he faced towards the guard house. Through the window one could clearly see two beautiful girls at their mid twenties tied to the wall, blindfolded and gagged.

Soon the large and grandoise manor appeared before his eyes but when he saw the manor he felt something else.

"Why do I feel that something isn't right?"

He thought as he approached the manor.

In the courtyard he saw the same scene he did back when he left the manor to his son. But unlike before the green grass was now gone leaving only hard brown soil. The fountain which should be a sight to behold having flowing water and birds taking a bath and fishes swimming gleefully was now as dry as a desert. The manor which looked beautiful from afar when looked at closely was weathering. All over the building were cracks and the windows clearly haven't been cleaned for a while now and had been stained brown.

Edward thought to himself as he assesed the house and land he left to his son. It was clearly not taken care of properly, "What were the servants doing?". He thought as he looked at the poorly maintained manor and let out a sigh.

"I can already guessed what happened"

He said as he walked towards the front door. The planks he stepped on creaked like the floor from an old haunted house. But as Edward was getting thinking of what words to say to his son he heard something from the inside of the manor. No... it was just opposite of the front door.

"hah...hah...hah"

"Ahh~~"

Those are clearly the voices of intercourse, yes those are the sounds that a man and woman make when they make out. But the thing that came to his mind was, his son was killed and they have the gall to do this kind of act when they should be mourning!

[Bam]

Edward slammed the door shocking all the people inside the manor.

Technically only the men were shocked as the women were all...

Seeing the scene in front of him Edward had nothing but anger on his face, his son was killed and when he arrived his attendants and trusted guards were raping women in the halls of the manor. Why did he think that way?

The women were all blindfolded and if they weren't bound they didn't move. Some women still had the power to struggle but most of them were simply just lying and accepting everything that is being done to them.

"How dare you!"

Edward roared as he picked up the nearest knight and threw him away.

[Bang]

The knight crashed digging deep into the wall. The amount of strength that he displayed made all the knights shudder scaring them senseless also removing all their will to resist.

[Crack]

Edward cracked his bones as he began throwing all the knights around. When the others arrived at the manor they only heard the mournful howls of the knights being thrown around by the Duke and crashing sounds that come with it.

After two hours of throwing the knights around 4 died while three were severly injured. The medic came but Edward disallowed him to heal their injuries and instead told the medics and other knights to help the unconcious women and help them get their strenght back.

When the other knights came in, although dust was drifting through the air they could still clearly smell the scent of sweat and reproductive juices in the air. When the knights saw the women on the floor they lost all the sympathy they felt for the dead knights and the heavily injured ones instead they felt like they could tear these guys apart. Of couse the smell was one but the fact that it was still this strong after all that happened only proved that the things done was not done only last night.

When the knights went to check the servants quarters there were many women lying on the beds and floor listlessly. Because of this the knights split up into two groups, one investigated the whole premise looking for other things that may show what have transpired in this area. Then the other group went into the town to find out what had the young master Julius actually been doing.

While the knights did their job, Edward headed for the second floor as he knew that that was the only place where Julius would sleep. When he walked in the corridor to the room he saw many women in a similar condition as those downstairs. Then he reached the room... there he saw one of his loyal attendants that he trusted on leading Julius to the right path.

"Gron"

"Hii"

"Men!"

With his words two knights came.

"Take this man and execute him publicly"

"No please my lord, have mercy, have mercyy!"

Not minding the crying old fart he turned his gaze towards the girls sprawling in the corner.

"Don't worry tell me what happened"

He said showing them a kind and warm smile, the women all cried and started telling their tale.

It seems that Julius didn't study and instead used all his means to obtain what he wanted. He bought slave girls and used them for his nightly pleasures. Since he wanted to silence the guards he hired more maids but all of the new and previous servants were used to bribe the guards and all Edward's attendants. Edward remembered three women who he sent to spy on his son but he was led by one of the girls to a room in the basement. The key was a combination lock and the girl found out about it when she was brought to the place by Julius.

The room was dimly lit and the familiar smell of sweat and semen still drifted in the atmosphere.

[Light]

Edward is not a simple knight, to be precise he is a magic knight using his magic he lit up the whole room and what he saw made his anger rise to the breaking point so much that his face turned red in anger and steam seemed to blow oout of his ears.

This is because the three women, his attendants who he trusted the most not only that they were also close friends to him and his wife the three were tied up spread wide and the rest is already known. In the room there is also the familliar scent of alchohol and... drugs. He went to a corner of the room and there he found it a bag full of Silver toad powder, this is a drug which has a similar effect to aphodisiac but a lot stronger. Though it has no effect on men Edward kept the drugs scent in mind as it was once used on one of his daughters. He can't foret that time when his daughter was taken by a viscount and forced to take this drug and was taken advantage of. He still remember punishing that man properly by executing him but he still didn't feel like he got redemption. After all the drug had something more scary than it's initial effects, it's side effects which are something that no father wants to see in their daughters.

Once the initial stimulation is lost the affected person would then be addicted to sex, needing to be taken care of every night and he had to ask help from the royal court. It was a blessing for him that he was friends with a court magician and he helped cure his daughter. He didn't think that that man would not heal the three women as the three are very close to that man.

But although he already fixed one problem and there are many more that has to be fixed there is one thing that still weighs heavily in Edwards mind.

"That boy..."

With trembling hands Edward called for knights to help the three women as he walked out of the manor.

Edward was holding the reports of the knights in his hand, after half a day all the deeds and misconducts done by his son was recorded. But although he looked at them without interest something caught his attention from the reports. It was the name, Touren Grace. Yes, the name of the man who saved the Duchess Lily Aldus from his sons hands, Edward could already see the disgrace he... no his family would get if his son Julius' plans succeeded.

"Howard"

Calling out to his apprentice he passed the papers.

"Burn Julius's corpse and all the people who followed his orders. Those that are alive bring them to the capital to recieve their punishment and that old man... continue with his execution. Also look for the adventurer Touren Grace, if he isn't registered ask the guild management his alias as he would surely use that. If they say it's confidential tell them it's a matter of national security also... in the assasin guild... tell Damian to relay this message to the person who assasinated my son, [As a father I really hate you but at the same time I respect you, I understand that my son has been placed in the vengeance pool and if you didn't take his head he might have already done something to the Duchess or worse... so I'm saying this as a Noble of the kingdom of Ardia... thank you.]"

After that Edward started managing the rebuilding of the Lancaster manor and started organizing all the debts that he swore he would pay to the bereaved families and the women who are victims of his sons hands.
