This chapter certainly moves fast. He’s a bastard son of Marquis Verhenal. Disowned because he doesn’t possess any element. The author could have fleshed this out more.
It did move fast, but on the other hand, I’m kinda glad they said what what was needed to set up the story and moved on. I’d rather have a barely mentioned tropey backstory that properly sets up the main story than a poorly executed tropey backstory that drags on for however many chapters. The only reason I can think of for characterizing the count would be to set him up as a villain when Art becomes influential. the fact they didn’t means the count isn’t going to be important to the story moving forward, even if he does reappear.
Woaw. Status abuse.. chief.. really..

Right in the narcissist’s ego.
