Warlord Khun was the first to speak up, "My Chief, there has been some unrest in the north. The Salvation has been setting some traps up there to prevent us from going further and ganging up on our people. If you would be kind enough to lend five Thunder Guards, my clan can clear the path for us." Akira's eyes drifted in contemplation, and after a few moments of silence, she said, "You can have them but only for a day. If your clan is not able to clear the path within that time, my Thunder Guards will…-

"The representatives of the people are now entering the Ghoul Hall!" The usher was already present as he announced the arrival of about fifty people into the hall. These fifty weren't from any of the clans, but they were representatives to convey any needs and requirements of the people to the four clans. However, there was no rule that they had to be present for every meeting except for ones that involved making decisions that could affect the people of the city. And this made Akira subtly frown. Her…

"Are you nuts??" Damien couldn't help but ask her as he ran forward and grabbed her arm since it seemed like she was really serious. This was the first time he was seeing someone being so eager to have their hands cut off. "Let go of me!" Mira shook off his hand with an irritable look and said, "You can't fool me with your words. I already know you will end up dead if you fight his slave. And you very well know with your death, my Master's heart would break, and she would never be the same. Those cunning…

"After you told me how Mehron is pining for your seat, I feel that his proposal is a trap. I think he is targeting me and not Mira because he thinks I am more important than just a slave to you. So if you try to protect me, it will only confirm his suspicions and might try something else that could expose me. But if I accept this duel, then it would seem as if you consider me no different than just a slave, and he would throw away any suspicions he might have," Damien explained his thoughts. Akira parted…

"It must be because I look like a human. It's only natural," Damien said, making Akira nod with a sigh, "Maybe, but it's not only because of that. Let's leave, and I will tell you something." Damien took one last look at the giant serpent fiend and was still in awe of its majestic size and aura. "Don't stare too much unless you want to satisfy her hunger, not that you can anyway," Mira sarcastically remarked as she saw him staring at the Thunder Guardian. Damien chuckled as he turned around and followed…

"The Thunder Guardian? Who is that?" Damien asked with a curious expression. "That is someone I have been planning to introduce you to. Come with me," Akira said as Damien and Mira followed along. Damien wondered who this guardian person must be like for even Akira to have so much respect and reverence when talking about him. He was surprised when she was leading him toward the underground, which he didn't even know existed. He expected only a basement, but it seemed as if there were entire floors…

"What? Of course, not!" Akira strongly said as she got up from her chair, not expecting Damien to consider this seriously. She was sure Mira had already told him how strong Lehron's slave was. Mira was surprised that he still wanted to take up this challenge despite knowing the strength difference. He wasn't even in the Profound Ethereal Realm, and yet he was already dreaming of taking on someone at the Noble Ethereal Realm. How foolish could he be? What was he trying to prove, or was he simply saying…

Mehron subtly smiled as he said, "Your Master? Fair enough. We can expect an answer by tomorrow then." Mira was relieved that things didn't turn worse than she expected, but at the same time, she knew she had caused huge trouble for her Master. But she was prepared for whatever was about to come. "Now that it's settled, we will be leaving. We won't take any more of your time, Lady Mira," Mehron said with a quick smile before walking past her along with this entourage. "You are dead meat, bitch," Lehron…

Mira's eyebrows pulled together as she realized that she had let her anger make things worse. No matter how angry or provoked she felt, she shouldn't have raised her hand against the youngest son of Warlord Nightshade, whose clan's strength was comparable to the Godwin Clan these days. She was worried that this might cause problems for her Master, especially since this happened in public. But Damien was actually surprised that she only ended up slapping him and not doing something worse. "Lady Mira,…

Mira gave a bow before saying with a plain expression, "I appreciate your concern, Warlord Nightshade. But the Godwin Clan doesn't care about some slaver trying to sell his slaves." Mira subtly furrowed her brows, making Damien think that she felt offended. The only reason he could think of was that the actions of Mehron's guard made it seem like the Godwin Clan already picked a bad slave which was him. Mehron softly chuckled as he narrowed his gaze, "Of course. It was just my concern and respect for our…
