Oof! After reading up to check 112 I couldn't help thinking the teacher and leonie's mom's knight were a team. My theory was he deceived both women even though I couldn't see a motive. But child trafficking....yikes.
Her dad is a noble that they thought was a knight, the teacher has a one sided love obsession towards her bio dad, that makes her kill leo's mom in exchange of them be together in the future but the dad didn't show up and just went away. The dang connie instigated everyone in the orphanage to abuse leo and make it look like she is leo's savior so when she met leo's dad she can put a good word about her and apparently in og leo died too.
I can totally get being pretty close to the worst version of yourself when your stuck in a drawn out situation where you're being repeatedly triggered mentally and physically and end up just acting and reacting in not the best ways to your victimizer and anyone on his team or reminds you too strongly of him. But what. The. Fuck. Was with all that intentional planned bad behavior? Getting other people involved before you even show up on the scene is the nastiest work. Little dude didn't even get the chance to possibly trigger you, but he's getting ALL the smoke and the dude putting hands on you gets nothing?! Gross and wrong
The lizard men must have been born less than a decade ago. It's bad enough that they didn't leave any behind for the locusts, but they collected money and without hearing the terms of the deal first smh Theo would never
