Chapter 367: Family Ranking Champion Harvey!
“It was like this,” the necromancer began thoughtfully. “Back then, Ashe said you neither distributed money nor gave out points. The benefits were few, yet the demands were many. It’s like you were a prime example of a streetlamp. And then he said something about your mother.” The necromancer paused. “That sentence was something like—”
Lise and Annan felt a gust of wind rush past, and then they saw Ashe dash forward to cover Harvey’s mouth.
“Harvey is just a kid who loves to talk nonsense. Let me keep his mouth shut for everyone…” Ashe quickly changed the subject. “In any case, the Future Ranking must be wrong. Even if I have ties with Senhaeser, why would I be linked to so many other families?”
“Exactly.”
Igor also came to Ashe’s aid. “The Senhaeser family has ties with us, and the Aldo family has a grudge against us. But we’ve never even heard of the other families. Why would Gospel link them to Ashe?”
Annan sighed deeply, pulling Lise into her arms and ruffling her white cat-like hair, looking frustrated. “Don’t ask me. I don’t know either… All I know is that apart from the Aldo family, all the other families are prominent financial, Red Hat, and political families within the Kingdom of Gospel! Even if they’re not as large as the Senhaeser family, their influence is just as significant, if not more so!”
“Compared to the ‘Art Ranking’ incident, where ‘suspected of creating an apocalypse’ was listed as a crime, the impact of this ‘Family Ranking’ will be far worse. After all, ‘creating an apocalypse’ is like insulting a large crowd; people might wait for someone else to stand up and refute it, and won’t argue with you directly. But this time, Ashe, you’ve specifically named these powerful families as part of your necromancer legion. If they want to escape such a fate, they will undoubtedly try to crush you!”
“It’s not me, it’s my future self,” Ashe argued. “You can’t blame me for things I haven’t done.”
“Sorry, that’s the traditional culture of the Kingdom of Gospel. If you’re unhappy, get out,” Annan retorted irritably.
