Also, despite helping Filimøs search for her students, he only did so with the intend to then use them as guinea pigs in his experiments and even killed those he considered to be too dangerous.

When this exact scenario came to pass when his father made Schlain his heir to keep him off the battlefield, it prompted him to ally himself with Hugo and launch a coup d'etat and kill the king whilst framing his brother. However, he ends up being brainwashed by Hugo and subsequently has his mind broken.

Others
