I AM A MAGE BUT WITH MILF SYSTEM

Chapter 211 Julian's Fury

Alden's voice rose in fury, his aura flaring as the tension in the room thickened. "Julian, who do you think you are talking to?" he said in anger.

But Julian, unfazed matched his father's intensity. His own aura flaring in response.

"If you had shown this much anger to the situation," he retorted coldly, "it would have been resolved way before." His eyes locked onto Alden's with a defiance that left no room for hesitation.

Regina's heart tightened as she listened to Julian's words, her eyes flickering between her husband and son. She knew, deep down, that Julian was right.

If Alden, as the Duke of Easvil, had shown even a fraction of this intensity and anger toward their family's troubles, things might have been different.

Alden's voice was filled with frustration and a touch of desperation. "What can I do, Julian? I'm just the Duke of Easvil. The Queen is the ruler of the Ares Kingdom. You want me to march into her court, challenge her authority? Do you think that would end any differently? I'd be branded a traitor, and our whole family would be destroyed. You think I don't know that?"

Julian's eyes flashed with irritation. "That's exactly the problem, Father. You never questioned your own actions before getting into this mess. You never thought about the consequences of marrying Mother. Look where we are now—trapped in the consequences of your decisions."

His voice grew colder, and he turned to face Augustus and Gregoria. His words cut through the tense silence.

"And you, Grandfather? Grandmother? What is this guilt you both carry in your hearts? Are you blaming yourselves for falling in love? Is that the source of your regret? "

There was a sharpness in Julian's tone that made the room grow even colder. The old Duke and Duchess shifted uncomfortably under his gaze, but their silence only spoke volumes.

Julian's words hung in the air, leaving them all to grapple with the heavy truths they had avoided for so long.

Regina hadn't expected Julian's words to cut so deep, but they did. His brutal honesty was something she hadn't fully realized he was capable of until now.

The family was left in silence, their eyes following Julian's retreating figure. He had spoken with an authority none of them had dared to confront, and though his methods were harsh, they all knew he was right.

Gregoria was the first to speak, her voice barely above a whisper. "He's right, isn't he? We can't go on like this."

Augustus, the proud and powerful Grand Duke, nodded slowly. He had always been a man of action, but seeing his own weaknesses laid bare had been harder than any battle.

"Julian's right. We have allowed guilt to control us for far too long."

Alden stood silently, staring at the door where Julian had just exited. He felt the weight of his son's words, and for the first time, he realized the truth in them.

His inability to act, his constant self-blame—it had paralyzed him. Julian was the one who had the courage to face the truth, no matter how painful.

Regina's heart ached for Alden, but there was a spark of hope in her as well.

As Julian's figure disappeared from sight, a renewed sense of purpose began to fill the room

**

Julian retreated to his room. His anger slowly dissipated as he let the tension ease from his body. He was deeply disappointed in his father and grandfather.

Though he had his own personal ambitions, particularly in seducing his mother and grandmother, he had always respected the two men.

Seeing them so pitiful and helpless, unable to take a stand for their family, had stirred a frustration in him unlike anything before. It was as if their failure to act had crushed any semblance of admiration he once held for them.
