As Clovis and the others expected, the Heshton family ended up receiving the complaint. Although they were quite a big family, the organizer of the expedition was not soone they could easily brush off.
In addition, the result and Gillian's action were obvious. If Nathan and Christina didn't take it maturely, they would end up facing a much more serious predicant.
Hence, the Heshton family was furious.
"Do you know what you've done?" A middle-aged man roared at the screen, glaring at Gillian.
Gillian gritted his teeth and could only lower his head.
"Do you? If there is a strong person out there, you should have befriended them instead of fighting them. The fact that he can injure a Tier 6 beast with his Tier 3 strength has said a lot about his strength and background.
"It's clear that the person in question is not your average person. If you have befriended such a person, your ti in that country will be much easier. In addition, the family will have another good relationship with a huge influence.
"Do you fucking understand what you've just done? And now, tell . What will happen if they retaliate?
"What if you're being chased by a hidden family right now? There's no trace about them, so if they act, you will be gone without anyone finding out what happens. Even if I use all the resources in the family, I might still not find out about them.
"Argghhh." The middle-aged man gnashed his teeth. "At this rate, you should just return ho. It's too dangerous to stay over there. What an embarrassnt.
"To think I would have to apologize to soone. This is why you would never surpass your brother."
Gillian clenched his hands into fists. He said, "I can still make it right, Father. There are still several missions!"
The middle-aged man glared at him as if telling him that it had beco impossible the mont he ssed up.
He sighed. "I sent you there not only to build the relationship with the people over there but also to give you ti with Aileen. At this rate, I don't have the face to see that girl's master.
"In addition, she has told that everything is due to a woman. Are you a lustful beast? What differentiates you and a beast right now? Is your dick and brain switched?"
Gillian opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing, but the words stuck in his throat.
He changed his intention by saying, "I can still do it. There are still a few missions. At least, please allow to go on the next mission. I can still make it right!"
The middle-aged man frowned. He was fed up, so he shouted, "Do whatever you want. If you die over there, I won't even care. You're fucking useless."
The screen disappeared as the call was disconnected.
Furious, Gillian stord out of the room and ca to Aileen's room.
He banged the door multiple tis while calling her na out loud. "Aileen! Co out now!"
He never thought a lowly woman like Evelyn would dare to do sothing like this.
Little did he know, Aileen had been standing right behind him this whole ti, smiling as she watched everything. However, Gillian couldn't notice her presence.
She finally understood what Clovis ant.
'I see. Clovis is making Gillian focus on him to create a rift between them. Well, even though his father said he didn't care, it would still be troubleso if he dies here.
'On the other hand, Gillian is desperate right now. And if he ets Clovis again, I don't know what will happen. That's why it will be with Jay's group next ti.
'If he screws up again, he will be recalled back to the family, leaving us behind. And this ans I will have an alone ti with Erwin.
'Of course, I will be questioned by my teacher after this. However, Clovis told that he will start pressuring the Heshton family with Hana.
'Everything that happens here is just buying ti for Hana to make her move. I'm really grateful to Clovis for doing sothing like this.
'After all, it ans my family can avoid the responsibility as well. As long as we don't push them into the corner, my family will remain safe.'
Aileen squinted her eyes. Now that she had observed everything, she disappeared once again. Of course, she needed to have another date with Erwin.
The Libation Fiesta, on the other hand, was preparing for the next mission. Each of them was busy finding their own role, since this was the first ti they had to split up completely.
Everyone… except for Clovis. Clovis had to be on the call.
"I know, I know. This is sothing that is not easy to do, but isn't the money from the beast soul enough? You don't have to give the royalties for a few months or years to compensate for it." Clovis smiled wryly.
"That's probably enough for the capital venture, but do you understand that what you're requesting is basically making be put on the blacklist in Axolonia? In addition, I have to take the Heshton family on.
"While they're not the strongest, they are still a top family in that country. This is not sothing I can easily brush off. Even I will get reprimanded by Grandfather because of this."
Clovis scratched the back of his head. "Don't tell . You're going to ask for more artifacts? Do you want to sell them or sothing?"
"I don't think you will accept it, even though I want to create an auction for it. Then again, if I have them, I'm not strong enough to protect what I have, especially with the fact that multiple Tier 9 will be looking at my family. Without your grandfather's protection, I will be destroyed in no ti. Even though I'm greedy, I'm not foolish enough to do that."
Clovis thought for a mont. "In that case, what do you want? If it's sothing I can compensate for, I don't really mind. Besides, Erwin will work twice as hard with Aileen here. Aileen is also an extrely powerful assassin. She doesn't have a unique ability, but that talent alone is almost equal to it."
Hana smiled slyly. Clovis realized at that mont he would indeed be sucked dry from this.
