Saying this the Patriarch Looked at everyone's expression. Few were secretly happy few are confused few didn't even showed any expression. The one who are most confused actually are his two son Dean and Gardel.
At this moment someone couldn't hide his curiosity anymore. " Patriarch what is the reason for this sudden decision?"
" Why? can't I have some free time" " I have thought about this Many times. It's been so many year's I have become the Patriarch. Now it's time I give my position"
Hearing this the person who Asked this question become a little dissatisfied. " This Damn old Bastard, can't he answer directly ?"
However, he didn't Said this out loud fearing this old man would beat him up. It's not just him others have the same expression.
But no one said anything, after all most of them are junior of the Patriarch, as for Those of same generation as the Patriarch most of those elders have gone to seclusion.
" I have already talked about it with other elders and already decided to announce the name of the Patriarch" Hearing this few elders become dissatisfied. How can they not. After all the person who will control the Clans has already been decided, but they don't even know. As elders shouldn't they be qualified enough to Know and decide who will be the new Patriarch?
For dean and Gardel it even more bad situation. They clearly Knows they are not the chosen one. After all, Their father clearly disliked them.
Gardel who is currently wearing black normal robe and has cut mark on his face and clearly older glanced at Dean. Sensing Gardal gaze Dean also Looked toward Gardal but didn't said anything. Just seeing the expression on his brother face a smirk appeared on Gardal face.
" Look at all of your face. Why would I even back down from the Patriarch position this fast?".
" Hahahah, I am just getting started I have a long life to live" " But don't worry I might stay as Patriarch for next 20 Years" said the Patriarch With a smirk.
" As I thought" everyone thought to themselves.
" Anyway, I have gathered everyone here for two reason. First of all Dean's son Aslan, have return. I have ordered him to return. And now I am announcing him to be a elder candidate."
" What !!" Dean thought to him. His son in being nominated and will be a elder candidate ? Meaning he will surely be A elder in the future. "But how is that possible". Gardal have the same thoughts on his mind.
As for other elders They don't have any problem as long as the person being nominated have enough qualification to be one.
Patriarch swap his gaze and raised his voice. He have already thought something like this would happened "If any of your are dissatisfied with my decision you may go and test him yourself. But I have to warn you, He is totally different from what you have heard about him"
" So what is the second reason?", Asked a elder. They don't care, no matter what happened, in the end of the day they are family as long as it's not about the position of patriarch. Who doesn't love power and influence, after all this is why all of them cultivating.
" As for the second reason why I called you all here" the patriarch paused and continue "What is your thoughts about the resent events in the kingdom"
After this the conversation between the elders and Patriarch last long. As for Jin he have already returned to his residence. He who have already tested power and influence far beyond any mortal can think of doesn't coved power anymore. Jin wasn't alone, following his the guards and a man wearing hat who's face resemble of Dran Vickal.
After retuning to his residence he noticed few figure already waiting for him. Among all the figure his eyes fall on a small figure. This figure is actually hiding behind a maid and taking a peak toward him. She has chubby cheek and double penny tail.
( The maid girl greet Jin but he ignored it)
At this moment a voice float from behind. " Young master it's your little sister, Wali Dexton"
Jin glassed at the girl, seeing jin glance wali hide behind the maid. Aslan was sent to the new palace when he was only few years old. And he didn't seen his sister but heard about her. Jin doing said anything to the little girl.
After that Jin ignored that little girl and left. That girl peek again and looked toward Jin from behind. After that the little girl Looked toward the maid. " You have meet your brother, now let's go"
" But I wants to play with my brother"
" You cannot, your mother said you to return as soon as you see your brother"
" No, you go. I will play with my brother" saying this wali run entered the residence. It is said brothers and sister have a special bond. Even though this is the first time she is meeting her brother she have already made many imaginary plan she will do when she meets with her brother.
When the maid tried to entered the courtyard she was stopped by the guards. Seeing this the maid frown and shouted " Don't you know who I am, Don't you Know Madam Luna"
The guards completely ignored her. " You don't have permission. And we don't care who you work for"
Hearing this a frown darken on her face. She didn't said anything else. "If something happens to young miss two of you will pay the price"
Saying this she left with a snort. The guards with her also followed her.
Inside the Courtyard,
The little girl slowly followed Jin from behind. Time to time she would hide behind trees or the growers in both side of the entrance. Jin who have already noticed this didn't said anything. After Jin and the person resemble Dran Vickal entered the residence wali peeked from behind the door.
