Chapter 140: You degenerate!
Sylvara emerged from the patriarch’s chamber with conflicting emotions raging inside her. It was not that she did not respect or believe her grandfather. Ever since her parents died, her grandfather was her everything, but that bastard... he just doesn’t deserve any of this!
Just the mere thought of the arrogant bastard and his conceited smirk sent her on a downward spiral of rage. Blood God. The name itself was enough to sour her mood. Even now, after everything she had learned, after the power she’d seen him wield and the terrifying importance her grandfather had placed on him, she couldn’t bring herself to trust him.
But even as her heart burned with anger, her grandfather’s words echoed in her mind. Blood God is not just a threat or a pawn, Sylvara. He is the one and only hope for our entire world.
She gritted her teeth. That bastard. He didn’t deserve to hold their future in his hands.
Fine. She would go along with everything. She would take the bow and apologize. She would let go of her pride. For now. But once she manages to obtain the legacy at the bottom of that black pool... everything will change!
With that thought hardening her resolve, she quickened her steps. She informed the council of elders as fast as she could, and every single member of their family immediately found themselves teleporting to Trendelan City.
They made sure to stagger their timings and calmly mobilize the whole faction without attracting any unwanted attention. This should be the first time a natural treasure like this was discovered inside the game, one that could single-handedly change the entire power dynamic of the server.
There was no way they would let such a huge secret be spread around. Sylvara spent the time and carefully arranged for everything, overseeing every little detail. There were people standing guard every other mile on the path to the black pool.
They were not just there to guide the family to the right spot. They were also there to cull anyone who dared to trespass in this territory.
