Chapter 404: Iron Hand
Quan Clan Territory at Country V
The next day after reaching Quan clan territory, Xander was kept busy the whole day. Chad piled him up with plenty of documents that he needed to read and know about pertaining to the laws of the mirage and how the rules go beyond the clans, including the proceeding of one’s trial.
He sighed and muttered with a complaint, "I should have brought Lana with me."
Chad laughed and offered, "Do you want me to contact her now?"
"Will you face the consequences from Keira? Lana is our newly appointed family attorney with Keira’s recommendation and how come I cannot bring her with me when I am in dire need of our attorney beside me?" Xander whined, recalling how Keira’s nostrils flared at the thought of her friend being in danger because of Xander’s matter.
"Like, hello? I’m her brother, her own family. A good percentage of genes between us match being the same blood? And she cares more about Lana being in danger? What about me? Am I not in danger? Sitting here and analyzing these darn rules in legal languages, so many complicated legal terms are used here, how am I going to understand all this when I’m only familiar with medical terms?" Xander added.
Chad laughed again. He could not offer their attorneys because it would be a biased move once the trial proceeded.
For now, the only thing he could do was to ensure Xander’s safety. Quan Clan can act as a safe house for someone who asked an audience to Mirage Law since the complaint was against the Yue Clan.
Xander could actually ask somebody else but he was comfortable with Lana, besides Lana could fight well also and was trained in the military pretty well with this kind of scenario.
He really needed a consultant for that complicated trial.
"Speaking of the devil..." Xander muttered, hearing his mobile phone ringing and seeing it was Keira who had called.
