Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 739 The Truth?

"After arriving in my city, Milo soon gained fame among nobles and part of the lower court of the time," Jil remembered her youth when she was just an heiress and had freedoms that she now sorely missed.

"He was very good at what he did, a special kind of body art that could help people with problems, body aches, physical conditions, etc. He was not a doctor, but with his skills, he helped locals as much as doctors.

Soon, he met my younger sister, who had a back problem from birth and always suffered from severe pain that even prevented her from exercising.

When she met someone who could relieve her pain without drugs, she naturally loved Milo."

As Jil spoke, Lothur more or less understood what had happened. "I see... He got involved with your sister."

"No, that\'s not what happened." Jil bitterly smiled. "On the contrary, Milo was always respectful towards her. When she insinuated herself to him and ordered him to do shameful things, Milo respectfully refused.

Unfortunately, my little sister was not an easy person to manage. Perhaps because of her suffering, she eventually developed a very \'strong\' personality."

The empress closed her eyes and said shyly. "So Petra ordered her men to arrest Milo, drugged him, and ended up having sex with him... When our father found out, he was furious. How was his beloved youngest daughter going to get married after this? How could we justify to her future husband that she was no longer a virgin?

Petra Von Weber was betrothed to a prince of Rablus at the time, an arranged marriage, of course, but one that was part of the actions such states needed to maintain their power and status on the continent.

Such marriages were so common in this world that half of Concordia\'s royal and imperial families were related by blood!

Hence, Petra\'s father could not accept what had happened.

"My father would never abandon his own daughter, never give up on strengthening his ties with Rablus by marrying my sister to the third prince of this neighbor of ours.

Then he had Milo arrested and publicly accused him of seducing Petra and finally raping her."

"That..." Lothur was shocked!

Cases like that were very rare!

Usually, it was men who \'messed up\' the world by doing things they shouldn\'t do with all kinds of people.

"Then why wasn\'t he killed?" He asked doubtfully, not caring about the plight of this family.

He had no sympathy for the family of Mathias\' soul fragment, much less for the ways of the Von Weber family.

But it was strange that Milo had not died after such an accusation.

Jil opened her eyes and explained. "Because despite her problems, Petra loved Milo. When she found out that he had been arrested and would be executed for \'raping\' the youngest princess, she told our father that if he went that way, she herself would tell her future husband everything she had done.

Afraid of turning his alliance with the Rablus family into a negative relationship, my father gave in to my sister\'s threats and did not execute Milo.

My father staged a mock execution and killed Milo\'s younger brother in his place."

Mathias and Verna had not had 2 children but 3. The last one was born after Mathias left, so Lothur had no idea there was a third.

"That didn\'t end well, and Milo\'s mother eventually found out what had happened.

Having lost one son and having the other imprisoned, she tried countless things to free him. But she failed at all of them until one day, 3,000 years ago, she disappeared and did not return until about 100 years later."

By this time, Verna had concluded that she could not save her eldest son or even avenge the death of her youngest. So, she returned to the Ancestral Region to get something.

"I didn\'t know it then, but later, we found out that one of our trusted men had betrayed us and made a deal with Verna. As long as she brought back a potion of the Life Liquid from the Ancestral Region, he would help her and her middle son rescue Milo.

The bastard did indeed betray us, and when Verna successfully returned from her journey 2.85 thousand years ago, Milo was reported missing.

My father could not allow him to go free, so a great persecution of the hybrids began, resulting in the recapture of Milo and the murder of his second brother.

After that, we never heard from Verna again until you came to me today." She said, solving the mystery of what had caused Mathias\' wife to venture into the Ancestral Region and be hunted by the Von Weber family.

"She probably died after that day," Jil said quietly, showing the shame she felt about the whole thing. "She was badly injured when she saved Milo and wasn\'t supposed to survive much longer. Fighting my father\'s men, she surely lost what little she had to live for a few more years."

"So that\'s what happened..." Lothur sighed, feeling that this was unfair to Mathias\' family, who were not to blame for anything that had happened.

They were victims!

"And after that? Did their family name disappear because the family was finished? Did Milo die?" Lothur asked the most important question.

"No." She denied it and looked into \'Evan\'s\' eyes. "2.8 thousand years ago, my father died suddenly after falling ill.

Some of us still believe that it was the fault of the damned traitor who freed Milo, who successfully escaped our pursuit. But to this day, we are unsure what caused my father\'s death.

Anyway, with his death, I came to power.

When I became empress, I freed Milo and asked him to forgive everything that had happened. I made him sign an agreement promising never to seek revenge against my family, and I advised him to change his name.

I told him to run away to the south and start his own family there and try to forget my sister."

"That... That was very generous of you." Lothur said, but the truth was that he would have preferred it if Milo had just died and Mathias\' line ended with such a person.

With this answer from Jil, he was back at the beginning of his investigation!

\'Shit!\'

But while he was unhappy, Lothur listened. "Back then, I used an excuse to bring my sister back to the empire and then imprisoned her for almost 400 years, even though I ruined my relationship with the Rablus family.

But I did it to clear the name of the Von Weber family, and even though my neighbor pressured me, I kept my sister locked up while I erased all records of Milo and what had happened. Before I released her, I investigated his situation myself. I found that he had found his way and added a new surname."

She smiled as she remembered how well Milo had turned out and started his own family. "I don\'t know what happened after that, but he was already known as Eduard Jansen back then."
