Chapter 95
After killing Claire with one blow, Kieren turned around and rushed into the room immediately.
Warren quickly followed after him.
Everyone in the Mason family did not think much about Claire’s death. They simply looked on,
unmoved.
Naturally, they were more worried about what happened to Zavian and Ethan.
By then, Kieren and Warren had already charged into the room.
The room was filled with the cries of the old man.
They saw him kneeling on the ground in the middle of the room.
In front of him were two broken jade plaques, each bearing the names Ethan and Zavian.
There were cracked lines running right across the inscriptions.
Those were the exact jade plaques the man had mentioned earlier.
“Dad!”
Kieren and Warren shouted out to their father in unison.
They ran to both sides of the elderly man and helped him up from the ground.
The elderly man with snow–white hair gazed through his tear–stained eyes with a sense of profound
sorrow.
Despite his grey hair, his countenance remained youthful and unaged. No wrinkles could be found on
his face.
His mere presence exuded a magnetic and awe–inspiring aura, capturing the attention of everyone
present.
Since his return to Brookspring, Gavin had never encountered such a powerful force as that man.
The elderly man was the present head of the Mason family in Greenwald. He was also Kieren and
Warren’s father, Tristan
Mason.
Kieren and Warren supported their father to sit on a chair. Tristan could only cover his face and
continue sobbing.
The two brothers stared at the shattered jade plaques on the floor.
Their faces had turned ashen with shock.
Kieren was rendered speechless.
“No. It’s impossible!
“What happened to Zavian and Ethan?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“They were on their way to Brookspring last night. Why are their plaques….
“Is this Gavin’s doing? Is it possible that he killed them singlehandedly?” Kieren said.
Kieren and Warren’s eyes were filled with sorrow and horror.
Just then, Tristan spoke up, choking back his tears,
“Ten years ago…
Tve warned all of you ten years ago that the Clifford family is not to be trifled with.
“Why didn’t you listen to me? Why didn’t all of you heed my advice
If Gavin had been present, what Tristan just said would have raised some doubts in his mind.
It was true.
From Tristan’s tone, it seemed like he disapproved of the plan to attack the Clifford family ten years
ago.
Despite his warning, the other members of the Mason family went ahead to join the other prestigious
families to attack the Clifford family
Kieren and Warren’s faces became more solemn.
Kieren turned to look at Tristan.
“Dad, what’s the point of saying all this now?
“Besides, we were acting under Commander Latrell’s orders back then. We can’t possibly defy
Commander Latrell”
Commander Latrell!
Once again, the name appeared in Tristan’s mind.
The name was never heard among the prestigious families in Brookspring.
However, both the Hill family and the Mason family heard of the name Commander Latrell.
Moreover, it seemed like Commander Latrell was a very formidable force.
Back then, the Clifford family was the most powerful family in Greenwald. The Mason family was
ranked just below them.
Yet, there was no such title as the second most powerful family.
Despite that, the Mason family was a powerful force that could not be underestimated.
Hence, the Clifford family must be a much more dominant and fearful force for the Mason family to hold
them in awe.
Tristran let out a loud sigh
“Ha‘ Commander Latrell
“Do you remember how ya pernaded me to attack the Clifford family then?
“You told me that if we did what Commander Latrell told us to do, we’d split the assets of the Clifford
family. The Mason family will then become the most powerful family.
“Look what happened now? The Mason family’s influence and power have been diminishing over the
last ten years.
“Now, we aren’t even half as powerful as what we used to be. Don’t you understand what’s happening?
Tristan was certain there must be a hidden secret behind all that had happened.
Gavin wa
ne that three out of the four most powerful families in Brookspring launched an attack on the Clifford
family ten years ago.
They were the Harper family, the Dawson family, and the Holman family.
Those families powers were completely different from the past.
24
After the destruction of the Clifford family, the three families‘ fortunes and social status had grown from
strength to strength.
Very quickly, they became three of the four most powerful families in Brookspring.
The Taylor family remained one of the four most powerful families because Vincent was helping Layla
all this while.
On the other hand, the Mason family’s fortune and influence had been diminishing over the years, like
what Tristan said.
It was strange how their fortunes had turned out compared to the three families in Brookspring.
Kieren and Warren, who had been listening intently to Tristan, looked disturbed.
They did not say a word.
After some time, Kieren managed to find his voice.
“Dad, let’s not talk about the past anymore. We need to plan our next steps. What should we do now?”
Three of Kieren’s younger brothers were killed by Gavin in Brookspring.
It was no use regretting what they did in the past. It did not matter if they regretted taking part in the
attack on the Clifford family.
Gavin had killed three members of the Mason family.
Kieren vowed to avenge them.
Warren clenched his fists tightly, simmering in anger.
“Gavin, you son of a bitch!
“He’s a hopeless case now, defeated and alone. He doesn’t have any help. How dare he attack our
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfamily?
“He’s a homeless piece of trash.”
Since Warren was unable to fight Gavin personally, he could only use words to curse and insult Gavin.
Kieren spoke up again.
“I don’t think Gavin is capable of doing all this alone.”
When Warren heard that, he looked at Kieren, puzzled.
Kieren started to explain his rationale.
“It’s true that Gavin is a very strong warrior. What’s more, he’s also part of Frostpeak Dark Warriors.
“But he’s only in his twenties.
“Even if he’s a genius, there’s no way his combat skills can be so exceptional.
“Both Zavian and Ethan were considered to be among the best fighters. If they combined forces, they
could be as invincible as a supreme warrior.”
“Are you saying that Gavin has surpassed the level of a supreme warrior at his age? He’s still very
young”
Warren was at a loss for words.
He hated to admit it, but Kieren was right.
Tal Buuselt, Warren knew how much training one had to put in to become an exceptional fighter
Gavin had vanished for ten years and now had returned without the support of any family members.
Even if he was a genius, there was no way he could become so formidable overnight.
Just then, a sinister smile appeared on Warren’s face.
“I knew it. How can that son of a bitch become so powerful?
“He couldn’t have done this alone. There must be a mastermind behind all this.
“Hmph! I bet this son of a bitch doesn’t have the guts to return to Brookspring by himself
The most frightening aspect of human behavior was his unwarranted self–assurance,
Certain that he was right, Kieren then turned to look at Tristan,
“Dad, there my be a supreme warrior helping Gavin in secret.
“We can’t tell if Gavin has betrayed something or someone in return for a supreme warrior’s help.
Perhaps he was sucking up to this supreme warrior and begging for his help.
“Dad, I would like to ask for divine help from the Mason family. I would like to invite our two supreme
warriors to join forces with me and Kieren to fight Gavin. With their help, I’m sure even the most
powerful supreme warrior will not be our match”
Kieren narrowed his eyes menancingly.
“Let’s see who in the entire Riverrun dares to oppose the Mason family.
“I’ll make sure the son of a bitch dies a horrible death. He can join the rest of the Clifford family in hell.”
