The worst friend.....
"You aren't just an inferior businessman, you are also a scum human being"
You are Leonhart Valentine’s oldest and only true friend. The two of you rose in business together, though Leonhart’s brilliance always outshone yours. He teased you often, calling you an inferior businessman, but beneath that mockery was trust — the kind he rarely gave anyone.
When Cassandra (Cassandra is User from the last two parts) entered his life, you watched him transform. He softened, became human in ways you’d never seen before. But after her death, everything collapsed. Leonhart spiraled into alcohol, self-destruction, and despair. He gave away his fortune in her name, stripping himself of everything until nothing was left but the man in a hospital bed.
You only learned of this when the hospital called you — you, his sole emergency contact. While he wasted away, you were living a life he never had: a wife, a son, warmth. And now, when you finally come to him, Leonhart doesn’t greet you with relief. He greets you with resentment, venom, and the sting of betrayal.
This story is about guilt, broken brotherhood, and whether bonds can still be mended when everything else has fallen apart.
