The Lich of Glory Knight Spirit: Moving towards Krimasha! Chapter 312 - 44: The Dispute Between Father and Son

The highest authority of the Blood Clan was the loosely structured Elder Council. In most cases, the Elder Council were places where the ancient blood clans retired. They only dealt with important matters, and the Blood Clan seldom had important matters, so they hardly dealt with anything.

Beneath the Elder Council, there was a Dark Night Deacon Council with actual functions. In na, it executed decrees formulated by the Elder Council; in reality, it diated disputes between different families. After all, technically speaking, all blood clans were related to each other. Any obscure blood clan could be linked to countless family powers, especially those upper blood clans with surnas. Regardless of his surna, whether ancient or new, the standard for upper blood clans was that they had no human mixed blood. Thus, their ancestors were only those few ancient blood clans.

Clutching the letter, Jones slamd it on the table, "What does this an? Let the Deacon Council handle my affairs? This isn’t a family dispute! What right do they have to interfere?"

"But... according to the law, it is indeed so. They do have the authority." Dora said in a low voice, "And it seems that among the mbers of my master’s brotherhood, there are indeed those who serve in the Deacon Council."

"So he’s leveraging relationships to get the Deacon Council on his side?" Jones gritted his teeth in anger.

"Probably... yes."

"What nonsense law! A bunch of adult blood clans making laws to strip minor blood clans of property rights. It’s unfair! For what reason! For what reason!"

*Jones paced back and forth in the room. Dora could only stand aside, silently watching, helpless.*

*Outside the open door, Hydra Snake Ophelia already had one snake’s head observing.*

"I can’t let them succeed! Especially my father!" Jones said angrily, "There has to be a way to resolve this. Can I sever my father-son relationship with him? As long as the relationship is severed, he can no longer act as my guardian! What’s your opinion on this?"

"I’m afraid... it won’t work." Dora stamred, "Only humans can sever father-son relationships; blood clans have never heard of severing father-son relationships. Blood clans and humans are different."

"Then what should I do? I can’t give him Giant Snake City! This is my territory! Mine!"

"Little bat, what’s happened?" Hydra Snake Ophelia’s head simply stretched into the room.

Jones was stunned, silent for a long while before saying, "Lady... it’s my father."

"Your father again?"

"Yes."

"No worries, I’ll help you drive him away."

"No, not this ti." Facing Hydra Snake, Jones explained earnestly, "Last ti he was alone, but this ti he has involved the Deacon Council."

"Is the Deacon Council very powerful?" Hydra Snake asked.

"I don’t know how to put it." Jones held his forehead, said helplessly, "There are many of them, recognized by the Elder Council as a law enforcent agency. If they co, we can’t even fight them; otherwise, it would only attract more. One of their targets is you, Lady. I think it’s best for you to leave Giant Snake City for a while."

"Soone wants to seize the territory, yet you let a Hydra leave? That’s impossible."

"Lady, this ti it’s different, it will be extrely dangerous!"

"*Then what about you? Will you leave? Why do you insist so firmly, yet ask to leave!*"

*For a mont, Jones didn’t know what to say; he could only stand there, dejectedly closing his eyes.*

*The entire room was quiet, so silent that only Jones’ heavy breathing could be heard.*

Dawn.

The sun was already slowly rising from the east, the first rays of sunlight filtering through the clouds and shining on the top of Giant Snake City.

Jones quickly pulled the simple animal leather curtains and turned to Dora, saying, "Dora, as soon as it gets dark, go find Gray."

"Hmm?"

"Have him write a letter to the Deacon Council, stating that I’m his adopted son, and he is my guardian. Do it quickly and bring back the letter."

"Okay...okay!"

"I will go find Adelle and have him bring his n to help ."

"Will Young Master Adelle be useful here?"

"I don’t know. But it’s better than having no one. If it’s just and the Lady here, we can’t stop them at all."

"Will they co as soon as the night falls?"

"I think they won’t delay long. This letter is a final notice. According to regulations, the Deacon Council must notify before taking action. But I don’t think Father will give much ti. They will definitely arrive tonight, either early or late." As he spoke, Jones walked to the desk, took out several sheets of stationary, and began writing: "Take this letter to Gray, it doesn’t ntion the issue between and Father. I don’t know how to explain. I just told him I need a letter as a proof. And this letter, if you can’t find Gray, go find Shelley. The Lich Queen’s status should be useful too. And this letter, if you can’t find either, look for Bruto. Better go directly to Salted Fish Port. After all, we don’t know if Gray and Bruto are in Salted Fish Port, but Shelley and Richie are definitely there. If Richie’s Guardian Angel and Luring Demon are willing to help, the problem won’t be a big deal."

"Okay!" Dora quickly reached out and took the three letters.

Turning to the side, Jones said to Hydra Snake, "Lady, I might need to use your na to ask Bruto for help. I think it would be more effective in your na than mine."
