Chapter 189 Enemies in all fronts
"That is true!?" A voice came from a corner of the room, and people turned only to see the badly wounded Jortar with an expression of utter shock and defeat on his face.
Cain had wounded him severely, but since none of the attacks generated brain trauma, Jortar was able to regain consciousness after a couple of hours.
Jortar felt no gratitude at all toward Cain for this one not aiming at vital organs and wanted nothing more than to pay back the humiliation. He knew that defeating Cain in a direct battle would be pointless and was preparing to use the power of his family, but now that was not possible.
The Hammer Family was a Noble Family with a Marquess as its founder, and Wave Kings were among its members. Just one Wave King was enough for a Noble Family to stand among the highest ranks of the empire, but how could Jortar not know about the Valentine Family?
That Valentine Family only had one member, but it was one of the Nine Pillars of the Collapsing Lightning Sector. Every family with some power in the Sector knew that Zarak Valentine was capable of crushing Wave Kings with nothing more than his pure willpower!
Offending a monster like that was something Jortar knew his family would never do. If things were to escalate and he offended Zarak, no one could save him.
Dominic saw the awe in the eyes of Jortar and the others. Although he was not happy, he understood it. After all, going from an orphan with zero talent to the greatest genius of the Collapsing Lightning Military Academy and the Young Lord of the Valentine Family in less than a year was beyond amazing.
After a moment, Dominic's eyes returned to Cinthy, and a scheming light appeared in his eyes.
"Young Lady, do you think you could reignite Cain's feelings for you under the proper circumstances? I will do all in my power to help you with that if you think you're up to the task."
