"It's fine. I've taught you all well enough. From here, I leave it to you!"
Their footsteps clattered away into the distance.
Gabrant sat stunned, at the same time he forgets about his anger.
Jude bowed his head deeply and said, "Then, my lord, please forgive me. I take my leave."
Before Gabrant could even stop him, Jude left the room.
Gekkai gave Gabrant a quick bow and rushed out after him.
Left completely alone, Gabrant could only sit there in confusion.
What on earth had just happened?
Why, all of a sudden, had the three pillars of the household resigned?
These were the people who had faithfully served this estate for decades. They were the ones he could always trust, even when he himself was absent. They were the reason he could leave young Dominic alone in the house without worry.
—!
—Dominic!
