Synopsis: Margrave’s Bastard Son was The Emperor

He ascended to the throne as Emperor while still a child, only to meet his demise by beheading before he could reach adulthood. This unfortunate fate was a consequence of his position as the first noble wizard. "Ian, don’t be born in your next life." He believed everything had come to an end, taking in the traitor’s cold remarks. He was aware, yet… "You are a symbol of peace. Where else would you find such honor as a lowly one?" He became the Margrave’s bastard son, a lineage that had perished a century ago. A lowly and unrefined individual, fated to be sold off as a hostage to the barbarians beyond the border.
