Chapter 897 I Smell Some Inside Politics At Play Here.



"Isn\'t it simple? It is not like there are countless leads we have to choose from. We only have one lead, and that is the Assassination Mission received by the Shadow of Silence. We just need to go after the person who posted this mission. Of course, that person is most probably just a proxy, but we can always trace it back to the original culprit."

Thyra spoke out loud.

Most of the women in the room agreed with her reasoning, Melia, however, shook her head.

"What are we, the Ancestral Order? Do you really think we would be able to trace back to the real culprit with our current power?

Don\'t be naïve, Thyra."

Everyone turned towards the Vampire Duke Princess.

"We are talking about an Assassination attempt on a Saint Stage Cultivator, and not just any Saint Stage Cultivator, we are talking about the daughter of a Divine Stage Cultivator.

You think we can trace the culprit who has the confidence of going after a target like that? You would just be wasting your time if you do that."

Melia was strongly against that idea.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Amaya questioned as she glanced at Melia.

It was not like they have lots of options. As mentioned before, the Assassination Mission is the only lead they have.

"Someone dared to post an assassination mission where the target is the daughter of a Divine Stage Cultivator, it is a highly rare occurrence. That is because doing something like that is extremely foolish.

Just like all the clans, all the Divine Stage Cultivators also get 3 \'Appeals\' from the Ancestral Order. They can appeal to Ancestral Order\'s to search if they are sure that someone had wronged them. It is similar to how a Clan, that has been illegally attacked by another Clan can appeal for Ancestral Hall\'s help and investigate the clan they think are the culprits.

If a Divine Stage Cultivator loses his daughter, and that too, a talented daughter who was a Saint Stage Cultivator, he would definitely seek Ancestral Order\'s help.

And as you know, not many powers like to involve the Ancestral Order in their matters. The enemy wouldn\'t be as big of a fool as to give them a reason to use the Ancestral Order against them."

"What are you trying to get at?" Ember couldn\'t understand what Melia was talking about.

She just felt Melia was talking in circles, not making anything clear, and was only adding to the confusion.

"I am saying that the fact someone dared to post a mission to assassinate Rune is strange in itself.

Also, don\'t you think that the Assassination Hall they chose is too weak to complete this Mission? Shadow of Silence might be one of the better Assassin Halls out there, but it is not at the level to complete this mission. The person who posted the mission should know that as well.

There is a high chance that the Shadow of Assassin here is just a scapegoat."

"Again, I still do not understand how this information is useful to us at all." Ember shook her head again.

"I am saying that because of Threat of the Appeals, no sane person would try and assassinate the daughter of a Divine Stage Cultivator, unless...

They somehow have a way to make sure that Rune\'s father does not use his Appeal.

This can only be done in two ways, first, he had used up all his Appeals, last I remembered, that was not the case, there are only 3 Divine Stage Cultivators in the entire world who have used up all their appeals the rest are all... dead.

Or the other way... is creating a situation where Rune\'s father wouldn\'t use his appeal even if he wanted to."

Melia spoke and this time, Ember\'s expression changed.

"So you are saying…"

"Mhm, these appeals are a form of protection for all the powers, and since they are limited in number, most powers take using these appeals very seriously and long meetings are held before any power decides to use these appeals.

The same goes for the Feline Cat City, meetings are held in the City Lord\'s Hall with all the central power having the right to participate and influence the meeting.

The culprit must have someone helping him from the Feline Cat City, ensuring that the appeal wouldn\'t be used against them,

So we shall start our search from the Feline Cat City, I smell some inside politics at play here."

Melia spoke with a solemn look on her face.

"You could have said that from the beginning you know…" Edda complained.

Melia, however, didn\'t react to her words.

"Feline Cat City huh…"

Nux muttered to himself.

\'Do you really think the Information about a Beastmen City\'s City Lord\'s daughter would be that easy to acquire?\'

Suddenly, he recalled Eisheth\'s words and realized.

Rune\'s seemingly perfect life…

It might not be as perfect as he imagined.

"There is something fishy going on, so I will be going together with you."

While Nux was lost in his thoughts, Melia spoke up.

"You canno-" Nux wanted to deny Melia\'s request, however,

"I believe I will prove to be the most helpful one in this case, matters related to politics in high powers, in this room, I am the most experienced one in those."

Melia cut him off.

"But if you come with me, my movement speed will be limi-"

Nux wanted to argue, however,

"I will stay inside the [Core] all the time, that way, you can use your abilities without me holding you back, however, most of the interrogations will be done in front of me. I am sure I can provide you with valuable feedback."

This time, Nux had no other option.

It would seem that a beautiful Vampire would be following him to the Feline Cat City.

Of course, he didn\'t mind, this beautiful Vampire could follow him wherever she wanted~

The other women narrowed their eyes when they glanced at Melia, however, seeing that her points were all logical, they didn\'t have any reason to refute. They had to give in as well.

"When are we leaving?" Melia questioned.

"Right now."

Nux wasn\'t willing to waste any time.
