Is it just me or chapter 131 literally gives off the vibe that Vincent doesn’t care as much for OC than he does for RC and shows obvious favoritism. I know RC will inherit his position but c’mon, OC’s still his kid. Heck even Tanaka’s a much better guardian for the kid than him.
And this:
“You will be of assistance to him in my stead…” What about your other son? You know, the one hiding behind the curtain in front of you. Vincent didn’t even call for OC to come and join them. :c
Then…
I was hoping that Vincent would at least say something in oc’s stead like how he did for rc (”He’s frightened because you always look angry”) but nah, he smiled and just waved it off, disregarding oc’s future being the second son (who cares about him when you have a healthier, cheekier, more confident elder son)
*sigh* I’m just rambling, but seriously I dislike Vincent in this chapter and his attitude towards his younger son (at least give both of them equal affections, pretty boy.)
oh no that must be some translations mistake.
I get this from @sebcansuccit thanks for her scans! so here’s what actually Vincent said:
「もし私に何があっても、きっとお前たちの力になってくれる」
“Should anything happen to me I’m sure you will protect them”
he said it in plural way, and it basically implied that Diederich should be able to be their assistance & protecting them so I’m really sure Vincent never sounds he really offer more older brother and didn’t sounds like he ignore OC’s existence too. Which is why it also concludes to Diederich harsh remarks of OC to be able in need live independent and man up.
