Chapter 54 – Duel of Pain and Affection
A month later—
A full month had passed since that night. A night where many things changed.
The battle for the throne had officially begun. Sophie was doing everything she could to surpass her dear brothers, and the factions were already forming.
On one side stood Isac and Albert—backed by none other than Elijah. With just his presence, dozens of talented students rallied to their cause. They arrogantly called their faction The Fated Ruler, and it quickly grew into a powerful force within the academy, its influence spreading like wildfire.
But Sophie was far from alone.
Her support? Surprisingly impressive.
Malrik. Rouge. Aiden. Patricia. And of course, Anya and Yuki.
All of them were on her side.

He'd worked tirelessly behind the scenes, earning the loyalty of these geniuses.
For Aiden and Patricia, all it took was a promise—vengeance. A chance to pay back what was owed.
