Chapter 328: Questions (2)
"That’s..."
Aya stayed outside the Green Family Patriarch’s residence, listening to the children trying to convince the Green Family Patriarch not to go but the result was already set in stone. No matter what, the Green Family Patriarch will listen and follow the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s order.
In the end, the four of them could only leave unwillingly.
"Can’t we do something?" Hani asked aggrievedly. She didn’t want her family’s patriarch to be in danger at all. From what Nathan told them, this mission was almost certainly a death mission, so Hani wished that she could stop the Green Family Patriarch from going.
But they were unwilling to listen to her.
This made her a bit upset.
"There’s nothing that we can do." James was more rational. "Even if we go and find the Green Family Patriarch again, he will not change his decision. And who among you dare to go to the Fourth Head of the Wansu City?"
They were silent.
Even if the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s prestige has been decreasing lately, none of them dared to go and confront him directly. This was because they knew very well what ending awaited them if they dared to challenge the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s authority.
If there were anyone who dared to confront the Fourth Head of the Wansu City... it would be the Black Family.
But even then, no one wanted to make a conflict out of nowhere like that.
"How about trying to talk to Evan?" Vance suddenly asked. After that competition, Vance’s impression of the main family has gotten a bit better but he was still a bit resistant to them. But in this situation, only the patriarchs or the future patriarchs of the four big families would have a big enough stand to talk with the Fourth Head of the Wansu City directly.
The children looked at each other.
"Well, we can try." James sighed when he saw three pairs of eyes looking at him. He was the brain in their team and he felt that his team members were really stupid at times. "But it’s estimated that even he can’t meet with the Fourth Head of the Wansu City easily."
"Okay."
"Let’s try it."
They knew that children like them could not see the Fourth Head of the Wansu City, but they wanted to try it. At the very least, they had to do something for the Green Family Patriarch.
Aya listened to their conversation and watched the children leave before turning her head to look at the Green Family Patriarch’s house. The three people were still inside but the atmosphere had turned gloomy. It seemed that the premonition of Nathan before was really accurate.
’Hmm?’
Glancing to the side, Aya arched her eyebrows.
She sensed a faint dark element, another concealment spell, coming towards this location. Judging from the familiar mana fluctuation, it was Silas.
He should have decided to come and check on the Green Family Patriarch.
’...Wait, he will not find me, right?’
Aya crouched carefully on the tree and didn’t dare to move. If Silas were to know that she wanted to meddle again, it was estimated that he would come and lecture her again.
"So it’s already final?" Melia asked as she cleaned up the house. If one didn’t know better, they would think that Melia was a proper housewife and not a mage.
"Yes." the Green Family Patriarch had a bitter expression. "Teacher wants to win, so he chooses our team. You know, the other teams are no longer complete and only our team has every member with certain capabilities to fight."
Most teams would be built on the premise of attacker, defender, support, and control. Their team was similar. but because of their current rank, they were also capable of doing the tasks of other members at the same time.
This makes them relatively more powerful.
"Eh, it’s fine." Nelia snorted. "I have long wanted to beat up the asses of those b*stard from Yansu and Xunsu City."
The conflict of these three cities was not something that only appeared recently. Instead, it had happened ever since a long time ago, mainly because of conflict of interest.
"That’s really like you, Nelia." Melia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she saw her sister’s appearance. This violent sister of hers has always been very impatient with others. To be honest, even now Melia was really worried for her sister’s future partner.
Wait, whether Nelia could get married or not was also another question.
"The other teams?"
"It’s the Felix Family’s head team and also Jonas Green’s team," the Green Family Patriarch replied.
"Jonas... didn’t he say that he will not follow the Fourth Head of the Wansu City’s order after his sister’s death?" Melia was stunned.
The death of the famous genius of the Green Family was a big event that year because it happened right after his fiance, who was the greatest genius in the White Family, died. The death of these two people caused a big turmoil in Wansu City, nearly causing great destruction because the two big families threatened to leave.
But in the end, nothing happened.
"Yes, but his daughter has grown up and she’s in the same class as my son," the Green Family Patriarch said helplessly.
"Ah..."
Melia and Nelia understood.
For the sake of his daughter, Jonas had to make a concession. It was unknown what the Fourth Head of the Wansu City said to him. freewēbnoveℓ.com
"He’s the grandson of the first head of Wansu City but now he can’t even do anything he wants..." Melia sighed deeply, feeling that Wansu City was no longer the same.
When she was young, everything felt really good and the situation was improving.
But then...
The geniuses died, Patrick was under house arrest, and the one from the Red Family turned into a cripple.
Four geniuses, one after another, had an accident.
This made the four big families angry and caused a lot of turmoil. Especially because this happened during the early reign of the Fourth Head of the Wansu City.
The new head had to make concession after concession to the four big families.
