After returning home, I spent ten days, selling items that I acquired and in no need, while buying items that I need for improving my bloodline. In addition to them, I brought a few other items that would help me in the future.
I did that because I knew that some of the goons of those elders should be following me to find out if I was the reason behind their disappearance. The third elder hired the assassins and they were supposed to report my death a long time ago.
On the first day of my arrival, I saw the third elder's expression. He was frustrated and angry but experienced well enough to mask those feelings. Though he may be good at hiding, but the others in his faction aren't, especially the eighth elder, whose grandson I humbled at the city's entrance.
