In the beginning, everything was fine. He worked his ass off for the family so that his son would get some resources and recognition from the family. Everything was going as he intended until his son died.

He was far away when that happened and has no idea how he died. No one did. He died under mysterious circumstances and many were suspicious about his death but there was nothing was found.

He and his wife had only one child and she loved him with all his heart. She couldn\'t bear the loss of her son and committed suicide.

Matthias didn\'t see that coming and it broke his heart. Everything he cared for was gone and all he had was revenge. He wanted to find out what happened to his son and avenge him. So he went to the head of the family, Joseph Frostwolf.

Joseph refused to use family resources to look into the death of his son, and for that he had Joseph. He already lost his son and his wife who couldn\'t live without her son. All he wanted was revenge but Joseph denied that to him.

This made him hate Joseph and the entire Frostwolf family. He could see that there are many snakes living in the family but he believed that Joseph was not one. Today though he changed his opinion. He started to hate everyone.

What Matthias didn\'t know was that Joseph started an investigation the moment the news of the boy\'s death came. He found out why he was dead.

The boy though appeared as a good boy, he was not. He used to bully the commoner children from the city but as he had the Frostwolf family name, no one dared to go against him but one did.

That day the boy was bullying two orphans, a boy and his younger sister. The orphan boy was angered because of what happened and in anger struck Matthias\'s son. Normally that was not enough to kill someone but due to that strike he slipped and his head fell on the nearby rock and broke his head.

He bled and died later.

The two orphans disappeared from the city and so did the families of the boys that usually followed Matthias\'s son. They were all afraid of repercussions. So rather than dying, they decided that it was best to live in a slum in some other city.

Joseph couldn\'t find them all but he caught one family and extracted everything that happened from the beginning.

When Joseph learned what happened, he decided to bury it. Matthias worked for the family with everything so that his son would have something that he never did. The boy instead wasted his father\'s efforts and did bad deeds and paid dearly for that.

The boy didn\'t deserve death but that was an accident.

Joseph didn\'t know what Matthias would do to those two orphans if the truth ever came out. More than that, he was afraid of what would happen to him if he learned the truth about his son. So he buried everything and denied any investigation using family resources.

As time went on, the hate increased and all he wanted was to make the family but he had no way to do so.

It was at that point, a stranger approached him claiming that he was an agent of the demons. He had a proposal for him from the demons.

The Agent came to him with a simple deal. Matthias has to find a way to place a demon-summoning ritual in the Frostwolf family residence.

When someone uses that summoning without knowing what it does, they would be in for a surprise.

This ritual would summon a demon from the Fury demon tribe. These guys were not known to sit down and talk. They would talk with their fists. There is only strength, no diplomacy.

If they abruptly appear among humans, they would surely start to burn everything around them. They would massacre the people and would show no mercy. The Winter City would die and why they targeted this remote place, they didn\'t answer.

As long as his part of the deal was completed, the demon would give him the person who killed his son and also the destruction of the Froswolf family.

Matthias didn\'t know whether that was feasible but he said that he would use the ritual himself but the agent disagreed. It has to be done by someone who is from the Frostwolf family and t has to be done voluntarily, without other\'s cohesion.

Matthias could only nod and agree to the deal.

As per the deal, he placed the demon summoning ritual in the library, without anyone noticing him.

This act is considered treason, not just against the family but against the kingdom. Even if he escapes from the wrath of the family, he can\'t escape from the wrath of the kingdom.

Making deals with demons to cause damage to human lands is frowned upon by almost all humans. Though most had no conflict with demons, if given the choice to choose between demons and fellow humans, the choice of the people is obvious.

They would choose their own race rather than a foreign race.

By doing this, he would become a fugitive of his home kingdom, and no human kingdom would want such people in their kingdoms, at least officially but things can change as long as there are benefits for them, such is human nature.

---

It has been years since he placed the ritual manual in the library but there were no significant movements.

He wanted to check it by himself, but he couldn\'t return to the Winter City without proper reason. He stormed off back then. Though it was years, he couldn\'t casually show up in the family residence but finally, a chance came.

Joseph\'s first daughter was being married. Every family member was invited, including him. he finally had a chance to see why nothing happened.

If his part of the deal doesn\'t happen, then the demon would never keep their part of the deal, something Matthias can\'t let happen.
