Chapter 1512: Avlyn
Chapter 1512: Avlyn
The attendant left the room in an instant.
He went to Sivan's residence, but it was already too late. The news already reached Sivan's residence.
In fact, it reached Sivan even before it reached half of the grand elders.
Sivan's expression turned sour immediately and he felt like he was in a pickle. He immediately wanted to get up and go to the Clan's leader's office to learn about the situation well, but he cannot.
Because currently the representatives of the Divine league are staying in his residence and there is also another person that barged in here without Sivan's consent.
It is Sin, Sivan's father.
At this moment, all of them are having a meal at a long dining table.
Sivan took the seat at the head of the table. Six divine league members sat on each side of the table. A total of twelve and all of them are Peak stage cultivators of Astral Plane Consummation.
On the other side, the tail end, Sin sat as he ate the meal silently.
There is this strange tension in the air. Particularly between Sin and the leader of this ground.
The leader of the group who sat to the right of Sivan is a tall woman. She is glowing brown skin and even darker brown hair that was tied up in a tight ponytail.
She is ignoring all of Sivan's attempts to make any conversation as she glared at Sin again and again.
"So, you still didn't learn to respect your hosts, have you? Avlyn."
Sin suddenly spoke and the woman was stuck a bit. The rest of the members of the divine league are either nervously trying to not involve themselves in the exchange or they are looking at the whole thing in amusement.
"You are the one to talk. You were not even invited here. Why don't you fuck off first and relieve the host of the duty to kick you out?"
Avlyn replied coldly.
*cough* *cough*
Sivan coughed to diffuse the tension and he glared at Sin.
"Miss Avlyn, this wine is made from a very special recipe and very rare ingredients. It is a completely new technique that has never been used in any of our realms.
Please try it."
Avlyn raised her glass indicating for him to pour some as she took in all the extra respect. She brought the glass closer to her nose and smelled the fragrance.
"That is indeed a great wine. Why don't you try it Sin? I highly doubt you will be able to experience its taste with your numb skull though."
"Well, I saved this wine, especially for Miss Avlyn and her companions."
Even before Sin could reply, Sivan spoke up. Everyone in the room raised their eyebrows slightly as they looked at Sin and Sivan.
Avlyn smirked and said.
"He is your father after all. You can pour a glass for him."
"There is no need for that."
Sivan directly rejected without even looking at his father.
Sin didn't even bother to speak up and just had the lunch silently.
"So, it seems like you can't even win your son's acceptance. Serves you right."
Sin stopped his fork for a minute but continued on after that.
Avlyn kept on provoking Sin when Sivan got the news.
He looked at his father. He knew very well why his father is there.
He is here to make sure that Sivan doesn't get into a deeper relationship with the Divine league. Whenever he feels that things are getting out of line, he wouldn't hesitate to decapitate these divine league members.
From what Sivan observed, the divine league members are scared of his father. There is this faint fear that they have even though there are twelve of them together. They are unsure of what would happen if Sin attacked them.
Except for Avlyn, everyone is scared of Sin.
And something told Sivan that even Avlyn wouldn't be able to deal with Sin properly.
She might be acting all angry and hateful towards him, but he is also not daring to push him too much.
Sin's presence alone kept all of them in check and Sivan really wants that. He might be kissing ass now, but that is just to make sure that they let their guard down.
He has age and inexperience on his side. He would definitely be underestimated. He wants to take advantage of those qualities to make these people lose some of their defences against him.
The Divine league certainly has some aspirations and from what he knows, it is about the four children. He needs more information on why they are doing what they are doing. He needs to prepare himself for any unexpected surprises.
All in all, he needs more information.
But he also doesn't want to be taken advantage of. That is why he didn't completely reject his father's place here.
At this moment though, he doesn't have enough leisure to think about it.
The Divine league members are here for a while and they are waiting for the Mari clan to start their attack on the Gaja clan. It is already delayed because of the Grand elder's pettiness. He put in a lot of effort to keep the divine league members pleased.
He kept on giving different demonstrations of all of his equipment, keeping them entertained.
Now not only are the troops from that grand elder are not coming, but also the grand elder is dead.
He is rapidly thinking of ways to resolve the situation.
But at this moment, one of the subordinates of the divine league members came in and whispered something in Avlyn's ears.
She looked at Sivan and frowned.
"Young master Sivan, it seems like there is something going on in your clan. You are holding back a lot from us. Don't you want this partnership to go well?"
"What do you mean, Miss Avlyn?"
"What is the news about three of your Peak stage Astral Plane Consummation stage cultivators are dead. We heard that some organization named the Dusk has been attacking you and they took down three of your powerhouses.
Don't you think we should have been informed about it beforehand?"
"Three?"
Sivan blurted out in confusion. Sin frowned as he looked at Avlyn. Even he doesn't know about the information.
And from her reaction, she is not just bullshitting.
"I don't know about this. Let me just confirm it."
Sivan immediately ran out of the room without even caring to listen to her answer. He ran to the clan leader's residence.
Unlike the rest of the elders that are waiting outside for Clan's leader's response, he barged into the room directly and asked.
"What the hell is happening? I heard three of our Astral Plane Peak stage consummate cultivators of our clan are dead and you kept it from me. What the fuck is wrong with you?"
"How on earth did you know that?"
"Is that the question you need to be asking now? I heard it from the divine league's representative Avlyn. How did she know about that? And how did she know about it before I did? Are you an idiot for keeping this from me?"
"Young Master Sivan, you are crossing lines here. Be sure to keep it in your mind that you are talking to the leader of the clan?"
"Yeah, yeah. I know. The leader focuses more the politics and position than the clan. The indecisive and inconclusive person who makes all of his decisions so that his ass would be safe at the end of the day.
I am here to tell you that I am proceeding with the attack on the Gaja clan. I am not asking your permission. I am informing you."
"You can't. We don't know what the Dusk organization is going to do. We need to deal with them first?"
"Then you should have said that to me before the Divine league got involved. You said you would handle this when I wanted to go and handle it by myself.
Now, you can't do anything to me. The Divine league representatives are here. I cannot stop. They are going to lose faith in us otherwise."
"At least try to give us some insights on what could have Sam told them to do next."
"That is the thing, Sam doesn't have to tell them anything. They are not his subordinates. They are his friends.
He didn't order them to destroy the Mari clan, he told them to get ready for war and gave them resources.
They just made it based on his thoughts.
It is as simple as that."
"If you understand them so much, leave the Divine league to deal with the Gaja clan, you can use your equipment to assist them. Stay back and help us deal with the Dusk organization."
"That is not going to happen. The sole reason I am fighting against the Gaja clan is to deal with Sam. If I can't go there, there is no point in doing this at all.
You need to figure this out by yourself.
Send half of the forces that are gathered with me tomorrow morning.
Keep the other half and deal with the Dusk yourself."
