Building My SSS-Rank Universal Empire: From Trash to Cosmic Overlord Chapter 319: Jin

Vale raised his brows. "Since foundation? That ans that we have never allowed the Elders to build their own branch family and there must be a reason for that. Tiber, tell ."

Tiber stepped forward. "My Lord, it’s because of rebellion. A Clan must have a single root or else the other root will grow their own trees. Bigger and stronger."

Elder Youn sneered. "Oh? So you’re afraid that I will rise against you? Why are you afraid of such when you are the Clan leader? My ti grows short, Clan leader. Do you accept or not?"

"Elder Youn. I don’t accept, and I don’t accept you leaving as well. There is a death sentence hanging on you, and I’ve already nad you the enemy of the Clan."

Vale took a step forward, his anger that had been boiling since everything happened finally reached a breaking point. "You only care about yourself. You wanted the Clan and you set it up for war, but now that the Clan is pinned down you are here to cure your guilt for what you have done.

"I will not forgive you, Elder Youn Athrimir. By my na and right as the Clan leader of the Athrimir Clan and the family head of the Athrimir family, I hereby strip you of the family na and na you outcast, taking effect as of now!"

Elder Youn gasped and took a step back in surprise. "You... you can’t do such a thing!"

"I already did, and now I’m going to kill," Vale said calmly.

Elder Youn finally realized his mistake. He had gravely mistaken the type of person Vale is, and the reason was because he had never seen his politics before. He thought of him as his brother, but he understood now that Vale had more of his father in him.

Elder Youn stiffened like soone who had entered a cave expecting to find a safe place only to be faced with an angry monster. "You can’t kill . I have a Master Knight with ."

Vale snorted. "And I have two. You might not notice, but Eryndor here is a Master Knight, and Chief Takoda is right there outside. I have no problem with you, Elder Youn. But it’s with the Master Knight you brought with you.

"Will you join , Master Knight?"

The Master Knight was even younger than Eryndor. His hair was white and shaggy, and his eyebrows were of the sa color. He smiled. "Clan leader. Can you really trust if I turn my back against my master?

"Indeed, he took out of the street, and I am who I am because of him. My sword is dedicated to him and his cause."

Vale grinned. "Then I will remove him and the cause. What will you serve then?"

The Master Knight stiffened and went to his sword. He touched it lightly, and his eyes narrowed on Vale’s form. "My Lord. Do not say such words, because I have killed for less."

Vale smiled. The anger was now like a mask covering his face, and he didn’t care if he showed it. "Your master, Elder Youn, is a criminal that has sentenced my Clan to death through his stunts, and you want not to retaliate?

"Your threats an nothing, Master Knight. It pains greatly that you will fall this day, but fall you must if you insist on fighting against ."

The Master Knight gripped his sword and stepped closer to Elder Youn. "If I draw my sword, you’ll die before you can retaliate. That’s a promise. I hear you killed my student, Alyndra."

Vale blinked, and it took him a few seconds to rember where he heard that na. It hasn’t been long, but a lot of things had happened after his early days in the Borderland that he couldn’t accurately rember everything unless he carefully thought about it.

His eyes widened. "Alyndra!... you. You are the Sword Saint!"

The Master Knight smiled. "The? I am just a Sword Saint. There are a lot of Sword Saints all around. And do you know what makes a Sword Saint? Or any Saint? They must first grasp the highest understanding, an enlightennt about sothing they are very good and passionate about.

"Then others would regard them. Worship them for the skills that they have gained and honed. This worship translates into more power for the Saint. There’s no god in the eternal sky, but who knows? We Saints are the closest thing we have to a god!"

"Impressive, I guess. Maybe one day I too will gain enlightennt on the use of fire and will beco a Saint. How powerful is a Saint, Master Knight?"

The Sword Saint shook his head. "You can try and find out."

Everyone tensed, even Vale. "What is your na, Master Knight Saint?"

"My na is Jin."

"Oh. Sword Saint Jin. I sentence you to death."

Jin blinked with everyone else. With all the threats that the man had thrown around, they had thought that Vale was going to let them go. It was the most reasonable, but then again, Vale doesn’t really deal like that.

In that split second that Vale said the word, Jin began to draw his sword and white light leaped out from the blade, making its way towards Vale. His speed was so fast that even Eryndor was three to four seconds slower to catch up.

But not him. Takoda blurred into the room like a storm of white wind. He was imdiately in front of Vale, and his claw ca down on the white light that was the sword slash.

Sparks flew as the line and claws t.

Jin blinked. He didn’t expect that there could be soone who could match his speed here. But then he noticed the crown on Takoda’s head. A stone crown that was glowing with red light.

"You! You’re very fast. I’m going to enjoy killing you!"

Takoda, in his monster form, growled. "I am not the only one here to kill you."

For the first ti, Jin showed an emotion. He smiled. "I have two swords. I can handle two Master Knights just fine."
