Chapter 1154

ผู้เขียน: Wendell Mayhew
After all, Andon's life was now in Jace's hands. Things were very different from how they had been at the beginning.

After hanging up, Andon called Sebastian at once.

When Sebastian saw that it was an unfamiliar number, he answered the call and said, "Hello, who's calling?"

"Mr. Ballard, it's me, Andon. I'm holding a banquet specially to apologize to you," Andon said heartily.

"Alright. Where are you having this banquet?" Sebastian asked, smiling.

"The Honora! It's a famous restaurant in Sunway!" Andon said, smiling widely.

"What time?" Sebastian asked shortly.

"At eight tonight in Room 401. I hope we have the pleasure of seeing you there, Mr. Ballard," Andon said, smiling obsequiously.

"Of course!" Sebastian hung up.

"Who was that, Mr. Ballard?" Zane asked, frowning.

"Andon from Steinberg. He wants to invite me to a trap that he's set up for me," Sebastian said, smiling slyly.

"A trap?" Gavin asked, his brow wrinkled.

"I bet that he's already talked to Jace about it. Sh

    After seeing Sebastian's fight with Luther, Gavin finally believed what Cillian had said.Gavin could not say for sure that he would be able to knock Luther out with just one punch and defeat him with another move.The powers that Sebastian had shown were far beyond what Gavin himself could ever aspire to, and as a soldier, all he felt for those stronger than him was respect.That was why Gavin saw Sebastian as someone who was worthy enough to be someone that he could follow and learn from as a role model."Mr. Ballard, there seem to be assassins on the second floor," Gavin said in a low voice because he could sense danger.All the lights on the second floor were turned off, so when they looked around, all they could see was darkness. There were also the faint silhouettes of tables and chairs laid out neatly.Only those who were particularly good at staying concealed would be able to detect the danger in the air. Gavin was one of them. Sebastian smiled calmly and went straight

    "Hmph!" Cormac scoffed but didn't answer. He turned back and clapped his hands lightly three times.The silhouettes of three men and a woman immediately materialized at the door. One of them was Rose. Sebastian's heart skipped a beat. He immediately exchanged looks with Gavin, who also sensed how dangerous the four of them were."I have a few friends who would like to have a word with you." Cormac confidently pulled out a chair and sat down.Rose and the three other black-clad men sat down. The four of them were positioned in a way that ensured that both the door and the windows were covered. "Is there a grudge between us?" Sebastian asked, looking at one of the men."You've killed so many members of the Slaughter Gods. How could there not be a grudge between us?" the man answered coldly."What about you?" Sebastian asked, turning to look at Rose."I came to watch the show, handsome. Don't be so nervous." She smiled winsomely at him.The other three turned to look at her in

    "Thank you, thank you." Cormac got up and ran out of the room. Andon immediately got up to escape with him."Hold it!" Sebastian said sharply. Andon froze in the doorway. He stood stiffly, not daring to move a muscle."Let me ask you a question. I hope that you can answer honestly. Otherwise, you'll become the fourth corpse in this room." Sebastian asked icily, "Where on earth is Jace?""I… I don't know either, Mr. Ballard! I haven't seen him for a long time. This time, I know that I've made a mistake!"If you forgive me this time, I'll retire at once and never return to Steinberg." Cold sweat was pouring off Andon's brow, and he was trembling violently."Get lost!" Sebastian waved a hand at him.Andon took a step forward, and behind him, Rose said softly, "It would be better if you acted as if nothing happened here. If a word of what took place here gets out, your entire family will die."Andon jolted slightly, then ran downstairs as fast as his legs could carry him.Altho

    Zane shut the door while he was speaking and started the engine."Come home first. I have something to discuss with Mr. Ballard," Theodore said. He hung up."Seb, my dad told me to take you back. He has something he wants to discuss with you," Zane said tentatively. "Alright. Let's go back to your place first, then." Sebastian nodded slightly.Gavin knew Theodore, so he went with them as well.When they reached the Northman residence, Theodore called Sebastian into the study and said very seriously, "Mr. Ballard, I think you were a little impulsive in how you treated the Dunhills today."Sebastian already knew what Theodore's intentions were, so he nodded slightly and said, "You might be right, but I don't like his arrogant attitude.""Wait a moment," Theodore said. He pulled out his phone, found a number, and dialed it. When the call connected, he handed the phone to Sebastian and said, "It's Mr. Shields Senior."Sebastian was surprised. He hadn't expected Cillian to be inv

    Theodore led Sebastian out as soon as he finished speaking. Before getting into the car, he called Ambrose and asked him to meet them at the hotel entrance.When Ambrose heard that Sebastian had agreed to help, he was delighted and thanked Theodore profusely over the phone.Theodore exchanged a few pleasantries with him before hanging up.In the hall of the Elysium, Angus looked coldly at Fernando and Wilbur. They had been trussed up by the Dunhills' bodyguards and tossed into a corner. They were no longer being treated as guests."Sir, if we don't give them any water, I'm afraid that they'll…" the bodyguard trailed off as he glanced at Fernando, who kept licking his lips."Let them have some, then." Angus turned to Fernando and Wilbur and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Brett is about to be saved, I would toss you downstairs right now!"Wilbur hunched his shoulders in fear. He wasn't even thinking about how to get the contract anymore. He just wanted to survive.When Amb

    "Alright!" The black-clad bodyguard turned and ran into the elevator. "Please sit down, Mr. Ballard." Angus' attitude was now much more pleasant compared to before. He even ordered someone to pour tea for Sebastian and the others."Mr. Ballard, Luther has been my subordinate for many years. Do you think you could save his life?" Angus requested sincerely.Luther had been stabbed in the stomach, and both his legs were broken. He was barely hanging on, and even the best doctors in Sunway could not do anything for him.Although Luther was just a dog to Angus, he still didn't want to lose such a loyal dog. "That's not hard. I'll write a prescription again. Don't worry, Mr. Dunhill," Sebastian said, chuckling."Thank you, Mr. Ballard. I'll be sure to repay you handsomely," Angus said firmly.He took the prescription from Sebastian and handed it over to one of the bodyguards standing beside him. Only then did Angus look at Brett, who was lying on the bed. His son appeared to be an i

    The yellow paper charm drifted gently onto Brett's forehead.A blast of white light enveloped Brett at once."Mr. Dunhill, your son will wake up in about an hour's time. Make this mound of graveyard dirt into a sachet and let him keep it with him at all times. After a month, he'll be as good as new," Sebastian said as he handed the graveyard dirt to Angus."Go and get me a sachet!" Angus instructed.After a while, the sachet was ready. Sebastian instructed them to crush some medicinal herbs and smear them on Luther's wound."I'll give you another prescription. Let him take the medicine on time, and he'll be fully recovered within a month," Sebastian said. He took some pen and paper, wrote a prescription, and handed it to a bodyguard. "Go and get the medicinal herbs," Angus ordered.The black-clad bodyguards turned and left after receiving Angus' permission."Mr. Ballard, I have a small gift that I hope you'll accept," Angus said. He took a square, redwood box from a black-cl

    There was a glint in Angus' eyes as he looked at Sebastian.Silas' health was deteriorating, and without him around, the Dunhills would lose their main pillar of support.The so-called renowned doctors, even those in Draepolis, could not do anything about it at all.However, Sebastian had given Angus hope.There were many prestigious families in Janover, but what they all competed in was how long the head of the family could live.For instance, the Tamson family had once been very glamorous, but it was now less than a third-rate family. It had lost all its influence among the prominent families when the head of the family, Archie Tamson, passed away three years ago. The Dunhills would face the same thing one day because no one could live forever. However, as long as Silas could hold on, it would give the Dunhills precious time to develop further."Mr. Ballard, are you interested in going on a trip to Janover?" Angus said, smiling wolfishly at him. He was now no longer hostile

    Samson glanced at Sebastian. He took a deep breath and said to Arnaud, "Thank you for sparing me, Uncle Arnaud."He gave Sebastian a few final reminders before leaving the hall with Preston.Once they were gone, Arnaud pointed at Duo and said to Sebastian, "Tell him to leave too."Sebastian waved a hand at Duo."I'll wait for you at the entrance, my lord," Duo said. "If anything happens, I'll be here as soon as you call!"He gave Arnaud a cold look before striding out of the hall.Arnaud watched him leave and smiled approvingly. He beckoned to Sebastian. "Come, sit!"Sebastian didn't hesitate. He crossed the hall and sat in the chair opposite Arnaud."Do you know why I asked Andreas to bring you back here?" Arnaud asked impassively. Sebastian shook his head expressionlessly. He said in a cold voice, "It's probably because of the emerald token in my father's possession."Apart from using him and Whitney as leverage against Samson, he couldn't think of any other reason.Arnau

    "The Blessed Child! The Blessed Child has finally come to our family!"The black-robed old man who had been sitting beside Arnaud stood up, looking pleased. He couldn't hide his excitement as he turned to Arnaud and said, "Arnaud, our family is going to prosper!"Only Rexton and Milton looked extremely displeased. Braxton and Roland looked pained, as if they had lost something of great value. They were practically thumping their chests in regret!The Blessed Child had been foretold by one of the heads of the family centuries ago. No matter how far the Ballards declined, the prophecy said that after a few hundred years, a Blessed Child would appear—someone who could lead the family's revival!The only proof of the Blessed Child was for him to enter a master-servant oath with a Devora."Prosper? What a joke!" Hugo scoffed, holding Virtus firmly. "Weren't you all just clamoring about killing the two of them?"At Hugo's words, Arnaud's expression changed slightly. "When did I say tha

    "Hugo!"Arnaud, who had been sitting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them wide. He eyed Hugo with a conflicted expression as he asked, "Have you forgotten the agreement the Thornes made with us ten years ago?"Hugo smiled coldly and put one hand behind his back. "That was the agreement you made with the Thornes. I'm only following Ms. Thorne's orders to protect Samson and find the emerald token. If Samson dies in this battle, how am I supposed to explain that to her?"He pointed at Sebastian and added, "He's Ms. Thorne's flesh and blood. Your family has no right to punish him! If the Ballards insist on killing them today, don't blame me for going on a killing spree!"When Hugo had finished, Sebastian finally realized that Hugo was from Isabella's family and that he had stayed at the Ballard Estate to protect Samson.It was clear that Isabella hadn't held a grudge toward Samson. In fact, she had sent an expert to stay behind to protect him in case anything happened.Arnaud's

    Sebastian threw his head back in laughter. He strode forward, standing in the center of the hall, and said coldly. "Ungrateful? How could you have the audacity to say such a thing?"Even if I'm surrounded by enemies, you Ballards can forget about making me submit! It's just death, after all. If I even blink, then I won't call myself a man!"Everyone there stared at Sebastian."How dare that brat be so cocky? If he's not punished, it'll be a disgrace to our family rules!""He should be given the death penalty!""It'll be a disaster if we just let him be, and it'll only bring trouble for our family. Please give the order, and we'll kill him at once!"The entire hall was in an uproar. Even Preston, who had been speaking up for Sebastian and Samson, sighed in resignation.Since Sebastian had already made his stance clear, Preston couldn't help even if he wanted to.Sebastian had roused the anger of everyone there, and Arnaud had closed his eyes and wasn't saying anything. He was cl

    Sebastian was just about to step forward when Samson hastily waved a hand at him and said, "Sebastian, the grudges of the Ballard family from over ten years ago have nothing to do with you. Don't get involved!""But—"Sebastian's gaze sharpened as he turned to look at Milton. There was an icy glint in his eyes. Samson shook his head slightly at Sebastian. The Ballard Estate had at least ten experts at the eighth level of the Eldoria realm. At Sebastian's current level, trying to fight them would only bring him big trouble."Sebastian, one must learn how to adapt to the situation," Samson whispered into his ear using voice projection. "Today, I will exchange my legs for your and Whitney's freedom. Think of it as a payment for what I owe you and your mother."Sebastian clenched his fists tightly. He hated himself for being too weak. He couldn't even protect his own family in a place like the Ballard Estate, where many experts were gathered.However, he would never allow anyone to

    "Do you accept it, Samson?" Arnaud asked harshly when he saw that Preston hadn't said anything else. He turned to look directly at Samson.Samson smiled bitterly and turned to look at Sebastian before raising his head to look at Arnaud, who was sitting high above them. He said, "Uncle Arnaud, I was the reason for everything that happened. I wish to ask you not to trouble Sebastian.""What are you talking about?" Preston was agitated. He stood up again and yelled, "There must still be an investigation about who was right and who was wrong. Why should they break your legs?"As he spoke, his eyes blazed with fury. He looked at the thin old man and said furiously, "Milton, you old bastard! How can you be so shameless at your age? Tell me! Did you embellish the story to Arnaud?""Uncle Preston!" Samson stopped him quickly and sighed slightly. "Forget it. It's my fault for bringing such huge trouble upon our family back then."I admit that I have let our family down. Since imprisoning m

    As the man in the black robe yelled, the entire hall fell silent at once. The thin old man threw the black-robed old man a disgruntled look, but he returned obediently to his seat.Once the noise had died down, Preston stepped forward and swept an icy gaze over the crowd who were present. "You call yourself the elders of the family?"The monument of our ancestral dragon is right in front of you. How could you bully two young members of the family in front of it? Don't you feel any shame?"Besides, how dare you speak before Arnaud does?"After the harsh scolding they received from Preston, no one in the crowd dared to protest. Sebastian nodded involuntarily. It appeared that Preston did have influence in the Ballard family. At least no one had interrupted his scolding, including Arnaud and the man in the black robe.Preston huffed angrily and bowed to Arnaud, who sat in the middle. "Arnaud, I've brought Samson and Sebastian!"Preston went over to the chair next to the black-robe

    "Sebastian, I won't be going in. Remember, don't say anything without being spoken to, and don't be impulsive!" Andreas said softly in Sebastian's ear when they reached the door to the hall. He then walked over to the crowd, which was packed on both sides of the hall.Samson and Preston walked into the hall without any change in expression. Sebastian hesitated for a moment before hurrying to catch up.When they reached the entrance, the two old men reached out to stop them and said to Preston, who was in the lead, "Preston, I'm afraid that it wouldn't be a good idea for you to go in. Everyone knows that you're biased toward Samson's family. If you get into an argument with Arnaud, then—""Nonsense!" Preston yelled furiously. He spoke in a menacing tone to the two old men. "Don't try those tricks with me. Today, I'm going to be the voice of reason. Who among you can do anything to me?"With that, he pushed them aside and strode into the hall.The two old men gazed after his ret

    The Ballard Estate's resources were unfathomable as it was. Could Isabella's family be even more powerful than theirs?Sebastian clearly remembered that both he and Samson were under the Sacred Medicine Society. They even had the same mentor.The Sacred Medicine Society was above all the other mystic martial arts sects. Even the sect leaders of the Nine Sects were very respectful toward his mentor.If Samson really was from the same sect as Sebastian, then his mentor had clearly been unable to save him. Wouldn't that mean that the Sacred Medicine Society was no match for the Ballards?Wouldn't that mean that Isabella's family was an even greater entity?"If my mother's family is really that powerful, why couldn't they rescue my father? There would also be no reason to let me join the Sacred Medicine Society either, right?" Sebastian asked probingly. It seemed as if Andreas had never even thought about such questions. He smiled and shook his head. "You probably don't know about a
