Faith and Cecilia's mother, unwilling to let her daughter become a living weapon like her brother Budot, had opposed the tribute to the Sword Family. However, her resistance only earned her death.
This served as the primary foundation for Faith's plan.
He had frantically unearthed information, seeking a way to pull back his sister, who was gradually losing her humanity. This was the method: extreme psychological stimulation. Faith wanted to use his own death to awaken the memory of their mother's demise within Cecilia's heart. Memories never truly vanish; they are merely hidden.
Of course, he couldn't simply die out of nowhere; he needed a phase to soften Cecilia's psychological defenses first. This was why Faith had gone to Kanzax Academy—not just to seek suitable pawns for the ultimate battle in the resource distribution game, but also to disrupt the Sword Family's brainwashing schedule for Cecilia.
