Chapter 76: Mishap

After that, another half a month passed in peace. The family head Norton, whose aptitude had increased, seemed to have been rejuvenated a second time. After he had broken through and became a level-2 Great Mage, he actually broke through again and became a level-3 Great Mage. Ron was also very awesome. He directly broke through to the peak realm of a level-12 Great Mage and was just a step away from breaking through to the level of a Great Archmage, a Great Archmage who was not even 20 years old. Just thinking about this made one shudder. Even the geniuses carefully nurtured by the academies were not as freakish as Ron. However, after advancing to a level-12 Great Mage, Ron did not continue to advance his cultivation base. Instead, he began to condense and compress his magical power. He also cultivated some martial arts and combat-based magical power. After all, he would be participating in the Blue Jade Trial soon. If he were to break through and become a Great Archmage, he would be disqualified from participating in the trial. Currently, he could also increase his combat strength.

Then, there was also the effect of the Man-Enhancing Talisman, which was finally showing after having been used. After Sonia had been confirmed as being pregnant, the other women in the family too became pregnant, one after another. The entire Nicholas family was immersed in a blissful atmosphere.

However, these were all internal affairs of the family clan. Apart from these things, there was another very important matter, the news of which had reached Winterfrost. The merchant caravan of the Treis family clan, which was making its way back to the Holy Light City previously, had actually encountered bandits halfway into their journey. Their entire caravan was plundered. Both Ramu Treis and Razi Treis, the two persons in-charge, died in the hands of the bandits. Only a few subordinates fled, and they reported the news to the Treis family.

However, whether the bandits were really bandits or some people pretending to be bandits became the most discussed question. Some people said that the bandits were enemies of the Treis family clan in disguise, and that the perpetrators were basically from the Nicholas family clan. The Nicholas family clan ignored this and pretended not to have heard the news.

….

In the center of the Northern Empire, there was a high ground, and on this high ground, there was a city. Legend had it that a Divine Mage had descended upon this city in the past, and holy light filled the city. Hence, the name of this city was Holy Light City. In this Holy Light City, there were a total of five large powers. The largest power was naturally the City Lord Residence. The other four powers were the four large magic family clans. The framework of four large magic family clans had already been passed down for a long time, but the constituents of the four large family clans would sometimes change.

For instance, the Nicholas family clan had been one of the four large family clans a few hundred years ago, but it was subsequently replaced by the Treis family clan.

Being newly promoted to the four large family clans, the Treis family clan could be said to be in the limelight. But now, the entire family clan had fallen into deep grief because two of their direct descendants had died outside concurrently. When their corpses were brought back, they were already badly decomposed. This was simply a great humiliation to the Treis family clan. At this moment, the family clan had already set up a mourning hall. Wails of sorrow could be heard coming from within, but it was not known if all this was true.

Behind the mourning hall was a conference hall. In the conference hall, the core members of the Treis family clan were gathered, discussing the matter.

“Our Treis family members cannot die in vain. We must find that gang of bandits.”

“That’s right. How dare they kill our Treis family members. We must make them pay tenfold. Let me handle this matter. I’ll definitely twist the heads of those bandits off.”

“I don’t think this matter is that simple. How could there be such a coincidence? The two strongest combatants in the team had been injured, and a group of bandits suddenly appeared? I think there’s something fishy about the identity of the bandits.”

“Are you saying that those bandits were our enemy in disguise?”

“That’s right. I can even conclude that the bandits were the Nicholas family members in disguise. After all, Ramu and Razi had gone there this time and targeted the Nicholas family clan. They are our family’s enemy. It’s normal for the other party to intercept and kill them enroute.”

“Damn the Nicholas family clan, these stray dogs. I didn’t expect there to be a day when they could turn the tables.”

“Even if they were to make a comeback, they are only a small family clan. They do not even have a Great Archmage. It will be easy for us to kill them, especially since they have a genius in their family, and that is Ron Nicholas. At such a young age, I had not expected him to be a level-11 Great Mage. He must die!”

“Yes, only a dead genius is a good genius. This kid must not be allowed to live. Otherwise, he will be a scourge to our Treis family clan.”

“Shall we go and exterminate the Nicholas family clan now?”

“Let’s delay this for a while. Lael is about to go through the Blue Jade Trial, so his trial is more important.”

In the end, there was a disagreement in the outcome of the discussion. No one was able to win against the other. The genius of the Nicholas family clan had to be eliminated as soon as possible, but their family genius’ Blue Jade Trial was also a very important matter. Hence, neither side could win against the other. Thus, they had no choice but to look to the family head. For matters which they could not arrive at a decision, they could only let the family head decide.

Sitting at the head of the table was an old man with white hair and beard. He was the current head of the Treis family clan, Larale Treis. He thought carefully for a moment and said, “I think Lade is right. Now, everything needs to give way to Lael’s Blue Jade Trial. Nothing must affect his trial. This trial can possibly produce a Divine Mage. If our family clan is able to produce a Divine Mage, we can then exterminate a small family clan like Nicholas with a wave of our hand. There’s no need to worry.”

“Even now, the matter of their family clan is not so urgent. Lade, go back and find out information on those bandits. See if they are really bandits or someone pretending to be bandits. Investigate this properly. Also, check out the Nicholas family clan thoroughly for me. However, we cannot go there and kill them directly. Although Winterfrost is only a small city, the City Lord is still a Great Archmage. If we go in rashly to kill people, it is equivalent to not giving the City Lord face or the Empire face. This will not do our family clan any good. After Lael has completed the Blue Jade Trial, we will have plenty of ways to deal with them.”

“Alright, Master. I’ll pack up and go down later to investigate the bandits and the Nicholas family clan,” said Lade, who was a bearded man, as he immediately stood up.
