" arrrgh what do you mean by he didn't even get to fight ? , why did he not fight " the Gordons patriarch threw a tantrum everywhere as he was behaving very childish at the moment
" old man , it was not my fault it was just the genius of the other families who were not able to force him out, all it took was only Brandon, and he wiped the smirked of the faces of the younger generation leaders of the other families " Draco started talking with nervousness at first as he could not place his hands on why
The patriarch would want his grandson to be beaten
But the moment he started talking about Brandon his eyes started shining with stars
" incompetent runts " the patriarch cursed
" I would like to bring that Brandon boy under my tutelage am sure he would grow to become a pillar for the family " Draco said
" hahaha , you want to steal someone from Alec, well go ahead , but you should know he and that Arthur boy trains with Alec, and are always together like three musketeers " the patriarch said
" errm I don't really know but I just guessed there relationship was quite close that's all " Draco said
" well you are hopeless, will my wish never be answered, I sent that boy to the Banquet in hope that a very strong genuis would be there and would be able to defeat him "
" even if I know he is crazyly strong I still hoped that there would be someone there to restrict him at least I would be OK if he lost his title of strongest king among the younger generations they always call him " the patriarch continued with his complains
" ohhhh you wanted him to lose ? " Draco asked with question marks filling his mind like who would want there grandchild to lose just because he was strong, and the fact the man kept in touch with his grandson nickname was sick even to Draco
" that's because I want him to come to me for advice he has always been acting like a lone wolf ever since he became a mage, and he grew so fast how am I supposed to brag in the future that I taught him what he knew, he forgot about me so quick after he was granted powers he has even forgotten about me" the patriarch complained again
Draco finally realised what was happening here the old man felt the small one ego's was too much since he was too strong and felt that as long as he lost once he might come to him for advise
But as Alec has never lost to anybody it only added to the patriarch misery
An stubborn old man who wanted to guide his grandson but was to proud to take him in as a disciple instead he would prefer his grandson come to him instead
" stop making alot of noise like a small baby , are you not to old to be behaving like this?, in fact you are supposed to be celebrating the clan now has"
" A certified Duke level genius but you are you are just dead set on him to lose." the grand elder scolded the patriach making him shut up
" you can leave now" the grand elder said to Draco
Draco bowed before making his way out leaving only the patriach and the grand elder together
" now let's talk about the serious matters shall we, who do you think is confident enough to try assassinate our kids" the grand elder questioned
" Well for starters we know they are not from this city, but it is clear they were hired, but who would have that much hatred as to eliminate some younglings, I just don't get"
" I think someone got jealous of Alec, even if he is low key and never acted pompous, it only resolved there Will to get rid of him"
" I even have a feeling that it was done by someone from the city, trying to cut our roots by eliminating our younger generations" the grand elder explained
" and why would any one do that, They are just kids, I swear all this politics things get me tired and that's why you were made grand elder by father, to help the family handle situations like this" the patriach complained with wide arms
"Well don't you know that, After all, the abilities of the next generation is vital for the continued prosperity of any family, so our younger generation being so great can only incite jealousy" the grand elder explained
" I give up, totally!" the patriarch said
" what a thug!! , you and Draco are the same, all you know how to do is fight, fight and fight leaveing all the decision making and schemes to me, useless!!! " the grand elder said while shaking his head
He looked at his brother who was walking to the door still conflicted weather to ask him or not but before he could say anything the patriach beat him to it
" fifth brother would soon be back from his mission what do you think he would do when he found out his only grandson Brandon didn't become a golem path mage" the patriarch said while sighing
" who knows, but one thing is for certain, he is going to love Alec the both of them have the same attitude always experimenting on new golem's form, I just hope he come back safe" the grand elder replied
" you know the blood moon is five days from now and from what I heard its a mid - tier horde that we are facing which means even you can't fight in that battle" the grand elder said
" yea I heard, I would send Draco to join up with the city guards so they could stall the other mid- tier life forms, this battle is mainly going to be between the low tier mages (1-3) and the low tier invaders
" have you now thought of sending Alec and his gangs over for this blood moon expenditure, after all that guy can kill a tier 2 zombie, which means he can be a vital asset at this battle, and I thought you wanted him to taste defeat, if an human genius can not defeat him then maybe he can face it in war but don't worry we would make Sure the top mages in tier 3 from our family put an eye out for him and they will be his secret Bodyguard making sure he would be safe "
" hmmm now that you talked about it I think I kinda like that idea, who else are sending there younger generation to war "the patriarch asked
" Well no one except us "
" what do you mean no one except us"
" Well number one it's really risky"
" but they won't become veteran soldiers without a war, are they planning on raising green horns incapable of protecting their homes" the patriach questioned in anger
" Well not everyone can be assured there child can survive a Tier - 2 life form sneak attack, you actually forget that protecting the city is the City lords duty, we are just here to assist"
" and to tell you the truth apart from us only the Darkbliss family accepted to protect the city walls this blood moon" the grand elder explained
" so few People , all they do is stay behind in the safety of the walls while others risk there life out there and they have the nerve to call themselves Tier 3 clans what a shame" the patriarch spit as he felt disgusted at the other clans attitude
" actually that is the right approach, too much death to the warriors of a clan would do nothing but weaken them, and no one wants that, that's why am send support for only the low tier battle which are the next generations with some veteran clans men who has stayed in Tier 3 mage realm for so long with lots of experience "
" and there guardian would be Draco and he shall join up with the city Lords men to stall the advance of the blood army mid tier warriors, but he would be put on a special mission "
" which is? " the patriarch questioned
" to protect the next generation if things go bad. " the grand elder concluded his explanation
" I like your plan we shall do it like that, let's deliver the news to those runt so they know that they would be thrown into a mini hell soon" the patriach said with a eerily smile on his face as he pictured the face of his grandson the moment he tells him, he would be thrown to another battlefield soon.
