Dyon glanced at Donari. “Rule 4.01. To beco a core disciple one must either be acknowledged by a core elder or pass the core disciple exam.
“What do you say, old man? If I beat him, give a core disciple robe and let take his participation spot.”
When the crowd saw that Dyon was looking at the napping old man, they thought he had gone insane.
To be a core elder of their Unseen Peak, unfathomable strength was needed. How could the re gate keeper of the outer sect be a core elder?
They inwardly sneered, no longer daring to make fun of Dyon on the surface anymore. Instead, they would wait for him to slap his own face.
“No need.” The old man mumbled. “I’ll accept you as a core disciple. However…” The murky eyes of the old man opened. Sohow, despite being unfocused, they had a subtle sharpness to them that made Dyon’s eyes glow with intrigue. “You can’t beco such an important mber of our Peak when no information about you is known. Don’t you think?
“Who are you?”
Dyon smiled. “My na is Dyon.”
“Do you not have a family na?”
“Of course I do.”
“What is it?”
“Jafari.” Dyon said with a slight nacing murderous intent.
This na was like a resounding thunder clap throughout the sect. There was no longer any murmuring, because no one dared to. There was no longer and slander, because no one dared to. There was just an eerie silence overcast through Unseen Peak as dozens of elders appeared in the sky.
There weren’t many notable clans within their 98th quadrant, this was because they were a place where sects thrived. Often tis, it would take many families to build up a single sect, and as such, single families were quite powerless to resist them.
However, there were exceptions to every rule…
In their quadrant, their six peaks were a nearly unmatched existence. But, there still remained two clans capable of matching up to their prowess. The first was Donari’s Caedes family. And the second… Was Zabia’s Jafari family!
After the incident three decades ago, the Jafari family had completely disappeared from their quadrant. No one had any idea where they went, but here was soone actually claiming to be one of them!
In truth, Zabia never told Dyon just what happened. He seed very afraid, or at the very least, wholly disgusted with the goings on of this quadrant. However, Dyon did have a clue.
When Dyon first ntioned the Dukes and Duchesses that attacked their quadrant, Zabia was certain that those Dukes ca from this very universe. This told Dyon that Zabia’s family had likely had so major conflict with a group who held that title.
The only thing Dyon regretted was that Zabia truly didn’t want to speak about it. In fact, Dyon went out of his way to not tell Zabia that he was here. Was that a stupid and dangerous decision? Probably. Considering Zabia knew how intelligent Dyon was, and just how powerful he was, yet still insisted he not go, that should be telling in and of itself. However, Dyon also knew that there were no rewards without massive risks. So, he dived right in.
When Donari heard this na, he trembled in anger and his fighting intent soared. Now that he knew this Dyon was a mber of the Jafari family, he wanted to kill him even more. It wasn’t that their family were enemies, it was just that Donari refused to be suppressed by a mber of the sa generation as him.
Not for a mont did anyone believe Dyon was lying. Because if it was a lie… It was just far too stupid! The amount of trouble that ca with be a Jafari in this quadrant far outweighed the benefits! Although their enemies wouldn’t act out on the surface, the number of people trying to backstab Dyon would sky-rocket!
Dyon smiled, looking up at the sky. “Oh my. It seems my family is quite famous.” Sighing, Dyon continued, “I had wanted to hide this from you all as I have no need to rely on my family’s na to get what I want, but this esteed elder here insisted.”
The elders looked at Dyon with a wide variety of odd looks. This child seed so intelligent and crafty just monts ago… How had he beco so stupid in an instant?! To willfully say you were a mber of the Jafari family, wasn’t that asking for trouble?!
“Sorry,” The old man recollected himself. “My ears are old, I didn’t hear what you said properly. Do you mind repeating?”
Dyon’s eyes softened when he looked at the old man. He could tell that he could hear perfectly fine. The only reason he was saying this was in order to give Dyon a way out. This made Dyon’s favourability of the old man jump up a few levels. However, Dyon wanted it just like this.
With a wink, as though to say he was prepared, Dyon repeated. “My na is Dyon Jafari.
“My father is Bol Jafari. My mother is from the 74th quadrant. I took my trials as a mber of the 74th quadrant, however, against the wishes of my family, I decided to co back and have so fun in our old stomping grounds.” An oppressive pressure erupted from Dyon that made the elder’s eyes widen with shock. “You can all call Duke Jafari.”
Suddenly, everyone understood why Dyon dared to co back… It seed there would be a major stirring in their small quadrant very soon. This was because these enemies of the Jafari weren’t the Peaks, nor was it the Caedes family… It was the most powerful force in the quadrant… The Cathedral.
