The eyes of the elders were filled with shock and fear. Their ancestors had been attacked? How did Mane battle them without making a single sound! “Impossible!” Magma screamed. For the first time in the several decades he had been the head of the Barbarians, he lost his cool before his people. “What is?” Mane asked nonchalantly, carelessly twisting locks of his long hair that had fallen onto his face. “You fighting the ancestors! A battle of that caliber would have shaken Intersection in its entirety!” Magma voiced out the thoughts of every elder here. They had never seen Magma this disoriented before, but they could understand why. They kept their thoughts to themselves though, saying nothing. “I think you are mistaken here,” Mane yawned lazily and said. His tone was that of one who was wasting his time speaking to people far beneath his level, and many of the elders grit their teeth in frustration at their current situation. They who were used to looking down on others were now

“So if that’s all that you were after, why come after us?” Kill Joy asked with a confused expression on her face after listening to Matriarch Ruth’s request. The request was so simple that she didn’t understand why they – the Barbarian Ancestors – had been attacked in the first place. After all, what Matriarch Ruth sought was sure to bring a lot of benefits to them all, and finally end the long rivalry between the three Great Races.“Because they wanted to make it clear who was going to be in charge,” Adviser frowned and said. Unlike Kill Joy, his mind was sharp and well tuned to the schemes of men. The only way a person would be inclined to put up as dominant a display as Mane had, was when that person wanted to assert some measure of authority in a place.“Yes. After all, which alliance doesn’t have a leader?” Pathfinder was just as sharp as Adviser. And he too was able to easily discern the reason for Mane’s earlier performance.“I apologize for my earlier conduct,” Mane bowed slig

It had been a week since return to Amalgamation. During this period he accomplished all he had set out to do. The construction work proceeded swiftly with Mane’s help, and the Amalgamation had been informed of the alliance. Once they heard that it was to deal with Pazuzu and that Mane would lead it, they were filled with very little reluctance; they readily agreed to join. Mane did wonder however, of what would have happened had they known that he was an Ancient?Afterwards Mane spent the rest of the time getting accustomed to the greatest change in his life – Sunflower. Now that the two were in a relationship, Mane had to learn the dos and don’ts he had never bothered to study before. And the young Supreme had to admit, that it was not as difficult as he thought it would be. The only difficulty was reigning in Sunflower’s antics, and explaining his whereabouts whenever he was leaving. And this morning was no exception. Having informed Sunflower of his decision to visit his first vill

“Would you stay for it?” City Lord Sutton probed, wanting to know when Mane planned to leave.“Unfortunately I have some business to attend to, so that would have to wait for later.” Mane’s reply seemed to have eased the tension between the two, and Mane couldn’t help but smile bitterly.Clearly they didn’t know that he was responsible for the damages their city had suffered. If they did, they would have been even more fearful of him.“It’s good they don’t know about that. If they are treating you like this now, then imagine how they would have acted knowing that you are the famed God Slayer.”Hildegarde seemed to have the ability of mind reading, for she saw through the thoughts of her Tested with relative ease.“Yeah,” Mane agreed, whilst secretly telling himself that he would have to check his spirit for any mind reading devices Hildegarde may have tethered to him.Mane continued to ask trivial questions as they walked through the mansion halls. The place was huge, and Mane assumed

Within the Asher City Lord’s mansion hall, four men and a woman Mane was greatly familiar with sat calmly. These people were the former members of the Orange Team and reigning champions of the Grand Tourney. “There is no need to look at us with such great hatred you know.” A slender man wearing a large black cloak shrugged helplessly and said. This man was the very same one who dared to assassinate the City Lord the last time he was in this city. This man was Black Hand, the close relative and right hand man of the Dragon Lord. “What did you expect? We aren’t exactly welcomed here.” Another man chuckled loudly and said. Unlike Black Hand this man was tall and large. He wore a tank top that revealed his impressive physique, and the aura of a Predator emanated freely from him. This man was the captain of the Orange Team and subordinate of Black Hand. Vital Orange! His aura had grown stronger in the past few years, but he was still a fair distance away from breaking into the Pseudo Nigh
