Jasia began to explain the situation of the current Alknight house. He said the events that befell Theo and his two brothers a few years ago, had caused a major upheaval in the internal house of Alknight.

The event managed to uncover the existence of factions that had been moving in the shadows. The faction that planned to overthrow the lord, and staged a coup.

The situation developed even more wildly as the facts about the leader of the faction were exposed. The second elder, Ivanovic Alknight. The eldest brother of the arduric lord himself. And, when Lord Arduric ordered Ivanovic to be hunted down with all his followers, this order caused great turmoil in the internal house, be it the main house or branch.

It turned out that the influence of the faction that wanted change had spread widely, many house members were secretly as they thought and agreed with this faction. Hence, some members started to clandestinely leave the house and join factions that wanted change. This made the split in the Alknight house which was previously still vague, start to look real.

To its peak, having felt their standing was as strong as the official faction. The faction that wanted change raised Ivanovic as the new lord. They later referred to their group as the House of True Alknight. Occupy parts of the frozen pine forest and build their headquarters.

The news of Alknight's house split then began to spread quickly. Other houses immediately took advantage of the situation by beginning to seize part of the frozen pine forest area. House Alknight who was preoccupied with internal matters, could not do much. They decided to retain only a few areas of frozen pine forest that they considered most important, leaving other areas under control of outsiders.

This caused the frozen pine forest to begin to become a kind of battleground, divided into several areas of the power of the knight group.

"So it's like that." Theo said while massaging his forehead.

After listening to Jasia's explanation, inevitably now she felt a slight headache, as well as starting to worry about her father's condition. As a lord, his father in these few years must have felt a heavy pressure. Theo did not expect the events he experienced a few years ago turned out to be able to ignite major turmoil like this.

"From your explanation, I can conclude that we are now in the territory controlled by the Ironhead house." Theo said after finishing digesting the situation.

Jasia just nodded, indicating that theo was right.

"If that's the case, why are you wandering in enemy territory?" Ask Theo.

"That's what….." Hearing Theo's question, Jasia seemed hesitant to answer.

"Hahh, forget it if you don't want to answer." Seeing the doubt in Jasia's eyes, Theo had no intention of pursuing further.

Hearing Theo, the benefactor who had helped her did not want to force her to answer, Jasia looked even more doubtful. After thinking for a moment he decided to answer honestly.

"Actually, I want to memebelot from the official faction and join the faction that wants change." Answer Jasia. Then lowered his head, not daring to look into Theo's eyes.

Hearing Jasia's reply, Theo immediately frowned.

"Why? You know that I'm a son of God, right?"

Theo felt that this Jasia could not be understood, he knew the fact that Theo was the son of a god, which would certainly support the official faction, but decided to remain honest.

"That's what….." Jasia was unable to finish her words.

"If you can't give me a proper explanation, I have no choice but to take you home and hand you over to the authorities." Theo said, giving encouragement for this girl to explain honestly.

Hearing Theo's words, Jasia could only further lower her head. While his sister began to look panicked and worried.

"Young man, please forgive my brother, so he has to do this. I'm willing to be in the law to replace my brother!"

"I beg you not to punish my brother."

The brother immediately knelt down. He looked very worried and agitated, his eyes started to shed tears. Keep begging for her brother.

"Sister.." Jasia who saw her sister's reaction, became worried.

"Is that so? You want to replace your brother for the law? Do you know the punishment for traitor family?" theo asked. Then he started smiling coldly.

Hearing Theo's question, Kalina could only put on a puzzled expression, as indeed she did not know what the punishment was.

"That's a death sentence!" Theo. While looking coldly at Kalina.

Hearing Theo's words, Kalina's heart immediately felt cold, her face paled. But, Theo could see from his expression, it was not a fearless expression for himself, but more to the growing worry of his brother. Because Theo himself had felt the same way, when his older brother Issabela was almost killed by a member of the forest guard Knights, a few years ago.

Kalina seemed to be about to say something, before Jasia immediately ran in front of her sister and began to kneel as well.

"No young master, no, my brother doesn't know anything. He followed without my knowledge. He's innocent!" Now Jasia began to kneel also in front of Theo. Begging for his sister.

"No brother! nawk! You can't die! can't…!! Just let me, I'll be punished!" Kalina this time started to cry as she pleased.

"Sirikkk.don't be stupid!!"

Seeing the reaction of the two girls before him. Theo could only sigh long. Previously, he had deliberately asked to see the reaction of his sister, while encouraging the brother to tell the truth. Now that he saw the reaction of the two brothers, Theo soon lost interest in tinkering. She started to miss her two sisters .

"Hahhhhh. Come on, get up! I promise I won't hurt you both. Just, to be honest with me why do you want to defect?"

"You don't look like the ambitious type who will think of power and the like. So what exactly is your reason? You should have a good reason."

Hearing Theo's words, the two brothers became a little relieved. Somehow they feel Theo is a believable person. When it calmed down a bit, Jasia then started to explain the situation and the story.

Jasia was a child of an ordinary family, her parents were members of one of the Alknight house branches. In the Alknight house there is a tradition that requires a woman to be married when she is 20 years old. This tradition that later made Jasia in a difficult position.

Catastrophe begins to come to Jasia when on one occasion in the academy, she meets a young man who is the descendant of the core members of the main house. Seeing Jasia's beautiful face, this young man immediately became interested and started to chase after her.

In general conditions, usually women from branch families will be happy to be pursued by descendants of core members of the main house.

However, the young man who was chasing after Jasia turned out to have a bad reputation. With his handsome face and status, he often uses his influence to ensnare beautiful young women. And, after being content to play around, he would dump them, looking for another woman again.

Jasia who knows this, would immediately refuse. He acted cold and avoided this young man, hoping that the young man would stop chasing him.

However, unlike Jasia's expectations, this young man did not stop chasing, he instead considered Jasia's refusal as an insult. Causing the young man determined to get Jasia by any means, and will avenge the humiliation he received many times.

When Jasia was 20 years old, this young man used the influence of his family, and took advantage of family tradition to submit an official application to Jasia branch house. He also used his influence to threaten other youths to stop pursuing and forget about wanting to propose to Jasia.

On the other hand, its branch house considers this a good opportunity to improve their standing. Paving the way to enter the main house. For this reason, the branch house leader began to pressure Jasia's parents to accept the proposal. However, both of Jasia's parents, who knew her son was only a political tool, immediately refused. Moreover, they also heard rumors about the behavior of young people who proposed to their children.

Because of this rejection, their little family lives a stressful life. The pressure experienced by his family made the father finally declare that he agreed to marry Jasia. However, on condition, wait for Jasia to graduate from the academy. Let him focus on his training first. His father did this to delay time and ease the pressure. Hoping that in the two years when the jasia graduated from the academy, the situation will change. However, the calm lasted only a few moments, before a tragedy struck their family.

One day, as usual, Jasia's mother would deliver a food ration to their father who was looking for resources on the fringes of a frozen pine forest. On a trip in the woods, Jasia's mother, who was carrying Kalina with her, accidentally meets a group of intruders from Ironhead's house.

Seeing that, the panicked mother immediately pushed Kalina towards the bushes, just before the group of intruders realized her whereabouts. The next incident, this group performed vile acts alternately on the mother. While the frightened Kalina had to see all those vile acts from behind the bushes.

Once satisfied, the group apparently did not let go of the mother just like that. Except to ruthlessly kill him. Seeing the mother being killed before him viciously, Kalina shouted furiously from behind the bushes. Until finally, a group of Alknight House patrol Knights who happened to pass by, heard Kalina's scream. They immediately rushed to the scene. The intruder from Ironhead's house has escaped quickly.

Their father, who heard the news, became very angry. Blinded with anger, he went to Ironhead's house to get revenge. After his departure, his father never returned. People began to assume the father died in Ironhead's house territory. This adds to the nestapa for the Jasia family.

After the incident, Jasia immediately returned from the academy to see the state of her sister. There was no intention for him to return to the academy. She wanted to take care of her traumatized sister. However, the branch family was not concerned, instead taking advantage of the situation by encouraging Jasia to immediately accept the proposal. They reasoned this to keep the family tradition.

Amidst Jasia's frustration, one rebel faction came to her, telling her that many other girls, who also had the same fate as Jasia, were used as tools of political interest in the name of family tradition. The man then offers to join Jasia's rebel faction, and together they carry out a movement of change against the old traditions. Jasia finally accepted the offer.

Since the journey to the rebel faction's headquarters was too dangerous, it had to pass through the territory belonging to Ironhead's house. He chose not to bring his brother. Leave it to one of the families he can trust and then immediately travel.

However, without her expecting it, the younger brother ran away and followed her. When Jasia found out that her sister was following her, they were already in Ironhead's house, but still far from the rebel faction's headquarters. So Jasia decided to take her sister back. The next incident, as Theo knew.

After hearing the entire story of the two brothers, Theo felt his headaches were increasing.

"Bahhh…. This problem turns out to be more complicated than it seems." He muttered while massaging his forehead.

He now understood, this great turmoil did not happen just because of the problem of resource management. But it also propagates to other aspects that should not be related. Theo can now conclude, the point of the problem lies in the old traditions. Although many old traditions are indeed according to Theo good, one of them is maintaining the preservation of frozen pine forest. But there are also some old traditions that are too excessive.

One of them is the tradition of discriminating against members of branch houses, this tradition according to Theo is actually more influential in cases such as Jasia. Because this tradition will cause jealousy and desire to be a member of the main house. Using the age tradition of marriage is a guise alone as a political tool.

After thinking for a moment to digest all the situations, and looking for the right idea to help the two poor girls in front of him. Theo then started to stand up.

"Do you believe me?" Theo asked Jasia suddenly.

Getting a sudden question from Theo, Jasia gave no answer, just looking at him with a confused look.

"If you believe me, follow me back to the house. You can stay at my place for a while with your sister, I'll think of something to solve your problems."

"And I promise you, no one will be able to force or hurt you in my place. You'll be treated well." Theo.

The two girls still did not answer, confused as to what to say.

"However, I can also understand if you don't believe me."

After saying so, Theo took out some glowing fruit, and the entire booty belonging to the Ironhead house members from the previous fight.

"If you don't trust me, take these things for you to make provisions to continue your journey, I'll escort your sister back home from here." Theo said while looking at Jasia.

"Young master.this..."

Jasia was out of words, did not know what to behave like, more dilemma. He could see this Theo was different from the members of the nuclear family in general. Every one of theo's attitudes, actions, and words was always shocking and stunned him from time to time. There was a feeling in his heart that inexplicably prompted him to believe in Theo.

"Sister, I believe in the third young master."

When Jasia was still confused to decide, the voice of her sister woke her from her musings. He immediately looked at his sister. While the younger brother, looked at him with a look of hope. His gaze seemed to be begging for Jasia to stay.

Seeing his sister's gaze, Jasia's doubts soon dissipated. He smiled at his sister. Then immediately kneel before Theo.

"Third young master, I trust you, and promise to serve you well." Said Jasia.

Hearing Jasia's actions and words, Theo immediately massaged her forehead again. Then immediately go ahead and get the girl to stand up.

"When did I ever say I'd make you a servant? I mean living in my place is as a guest.!"

"Young master.." Jasia was again stunned by Theo.

"Hahhh... And what do you mean by serving me well? You think I'm a pervert?" Dengus. He was still affected by his master's game.

"Young master... Ma'am, that's not what I meant." Realizing his words were ambiguous, Jasia immediately misbehaved. His face flushed in embarrassment, then began to bow his head deeply. Dare not lift his face red.

"Haha…. This girl said no, but her heart said otherwise!"

"Basic you fucking pervert! You have a dangerous charm that attracts girls naturally. Even girls who are much older than you! Hahahhaah.." Tiankong appeared again and again began to laugh out loud.

Learning from the previous events, this time Theo was not provoked to overcome the words of his master. He doesn't want to look like a madman anymore. Theo only glanced at Tiankong for a moment, putting on a slightly sneering expression, then ignored him.

"Ahhahhahahhahhaha.." seeing Theo's unmoved expression, Tiankong inexplicably started laughing again.
