Not really... I think they may briefly mention that Martha felt guilty and told him but we don't get much of the kids. During the fight between Raphael and Kloff in the novel he also mentions how distant their father was after the Counts death because they looked like him but I could be wrong cause I read it with my own translator and it was pretty difficult to understand. I'm going read a good translation of the novel and get back to you soon (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
I saw my name hahaha! Dorkoooo! It’s been so long! According to a blog (it’s a real short one) but Hugo sees Rapiel Jr and cries realizing the fate of his young master. This triggers the following events. He immediately checks Rapiel Westport’s tombstone…
He remembers Aeroc in the gardens many years ago. He teams up with Linus Wolflake (the guy glaring at Kloff in s2) in this revenge and publishes a book detailing Kloff’s crime.
Hagen the gatekeeper is Linus’ subordinate. So it’s sad because Wolflake… Aeroc’s childhood friend, let this go on until Aeroc’s death because of his unrequited love for Rapiel Westport. In the If stories, if Aeroc survives… Linus will try to reveal the crime. Since both Aeroc and Kloff are imprinted… they will be charged as collaborators in Rapiel’s death. (This is in Spanish version… so I’m not sure about the accuracy.)
I wrote a theory about it.. in ao3 ‘In the Eyes of the Wolf’ I tried giving closure to myself. The special epilogue is only available in limited printed copies. The blog covers so little.
The summoning ritual works! Lol
Thank you greenapple! This is better than what i hc linus was aeroc's childhood fren whaaat. It feels more fucked up to me bcus they allowed the abuse for as long as aeroc live. Why not just convicted aeroc (why wait until aeroc and kloff imprinted, i understand he hates kloff for snatching raphiel but still damn if aeroc was still alive it's like he'll be receiving double triple the karma wtf) sorry if i dont make sense but anyways
I'll checkout your ao3 laterrrr thank you!
The blog didn’t say much why Linus didn’t help Aeroc… but I think he just chose to watch both of them destroy each other. The blog is really vague which is sad.
If you read the spanish translation on ao3. Wolflake and Rapiel Westport has a side story ‘Lobo’ you’ll know that they’re families are close. In vol 5, Wolflakes visits the grave of Aeroc’s mother to give flowers while Aeroc was visiting. I actually wrote a fanfic about my theory ITRG world 1 aftermath
(๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Hahaha I’m just hyped the manhwa should be back by 19 (?) the 2 months hiatus is almost over! I wish they at least release 2 episodes…we deserve that at least (╯°Д °)╯╧╧

Ok i got a question. How did raphiel(the son) discovered that aeroc was his birth father? Does it ever explained in the novel? I dont mind spoiler. I need the closure for my aeroc and his children
