Years ago, when Ibn was studying at the Royal Knight Academy, he displayed remarkable talent for Cultivation, which was how he caught Bruno's eye.
After more than a decade of struggle, he rose through the ranks, not only becoming the Leader of the Griffin Knight Order but also falling in love with the Eldest Princess, Sharon. Ultimately, he was fortunate enough to marry her with the title of Border Count.
In a way, Bruno's methods for dealing with Ibn and Ronin were somewhat similar; he used his daughters in marriages to powerful, reliable nobles in exchange for the Kingdom's stability.
Ibn was pained by Bruno's death, but this letter presented him with a new conflict and a difficult choice.
'In his view, if Ronin were truly the killer, Garrett should have been forming an Alliance Army with him, Gushan, and the others to besiege Mist City.'
