Not expecting Lawrend to suddenly attack, the Clan Head had his guard down.
The two of them were touching the orange gem, which made it not activate.
Lawrend poured his fire mana inside the Clan Head's body. His body started burning and turning to ash.
The Clan Head quickly realized what was going on. He determinedly chopped at his arm and detached it from his body.
Lawrend let go of the hand and put the orange gem in his storage ring.
"W-What are you doing, Your Highness!?" the Clan Head shouted unusually loudly.
He was clearly trying to get the attention of the other people outside. That way, Lawrend would not dare to kill him with all of the witnesses.
"I'm not an idiot. I saw the greed in your eyes. If you were slower, you would have died. Though, I simply used a High Mage spell," Lawrend replied coldly.
"But that was sothing from our clan! I don't know how you got it, but I do know what's sothing that belongs to us," the Clan Head said seriously.
Although he was facing Lawrend, he wasn't afraid. As the Clan Head, he knew sothing that an outsider like Lawrend doesn't know.
"I saw the ancestor. That gem was his gift to ," Lawrend calmly revealed to him.
"Wh–!"
The Clan Head dropped his jaw in shock.
"I also know that this clan is a branch clan of the Ignis clan," Lawrend continued.
"W-Who are you!? How did you et the ancestor!?"
The Clan Head was so shocked that it looked like he saw a ghost. In his mind, only the Clan Head could do that using a Magic Artifact and a family-exclusive spell. Besides, they can only et soone insignificant from the Ignis Clan. They were never able to summon an ancestor.
"Look."
Lawrend walked closer to the blood pond and slit his wrist lightly. A drop of blood fell and boiled before quickly disappearing. It wasn't enough to summon that phoenix again.
"Who are your parents!?" the Clan Head asked in disbelief.
Now that he was given proof, there was no denying it. Even though he can't feel Lawrend's bloodline, the reaction of the Ancestor Blood Pond was enough. Only those with the blood of the Ignis would be able to incite such a reaction.
"Neat. I don't have to find my father to ask him about it. My father's na was Rendal Horiel," Lawrend replied.
Suddenly, the Clan Head's eyes widened into even more disbelief.
"N-No way…"
The Clan Head walked back slowly in a daze.
"What? Do you know my father?" Lawrend asked and squinted his eyes.
"N-No… I don't know that bastard…" the Clan Head replied as hate appeared in his eyes.
Lawrend instantly realized that the Clan Head knew who his father was. He walked closer to the Clan Head and stood in front of him.
"Tell what happened," Lawrend said with dead serious eyes.
"Y-Your Highness, I was just talking nonsense. I don't know that person."
The Clan Head forced a smile on his face and avoided eye contact with him.
"Stop lying to Master!" Aezel shouted.
She walked towards him and gazed at him with her red pupils.
The Clan Head felt the world fall on him. He was only an Arch Mage. It was hard for him to endure the pressure that Aezel released on him.
The Clan Head's face warped in pain.
"Clan Head!"
Vernon ran inside and saw the Clan Head getting tead up by Lawrend and Aezel.
"S-Son, run!" the Clan Head shouted while he gritted his teeth in pain.
"Father, what's going on? Is this because of the bet? I already didn't co! Why are you here!?" Vernon shouted at Lawrend in anger.
After he challenged Lawrend to a duel, he returned ho and quickly learned that Lawrend beca the Pri Student of the Mage Academy. He didn't have the guts to face soone so powerful with his True Mage strength.
"Oh? You also didn't co?"
Lawrend didn't expect that Vernon also didn't co. But that made sense as he never heard about him ever again after that.
"Wait, you also didn't!?" Vernon exclaid in shock before happiness started to fill his face.
"Yeah. I forgot about you after I enjoyed a good night with my maids," Lawrend calmly replied.
"A-Arghh… But that ans that we have drawn, right? Then, you don't have a reason to attack us! Stop doing this!" Vernon shouted as he endured the emotional damage Lawrend caused him.
"Hmmm… This is troubleso," Lawrend said and held his chin.
"Master, you are the king of this kingdom now. No one would say anything if you kill an arrogant bastard that dared to lay his eyes on Sister Aleshia!" Aezel urged him on.
"That's right, Master. Just kill this insect. The more I see him, the more I get reminded that you want him to watch us have sex…" Aleshia muttered with a red face.
"What?"
"What?"
"What?"
The Clan Head and Vernon stared at Aleshia in shock. Even Lawrend couldn't help but stare at her in surprise. Why was Vernon reminding her of sothing like that?
"Master, it's because of you! I couldn't help but imagine what would happen if soone watched us that day…" Aleshia clarified in embarrassnt.
"*Cough* Forget that."
Lawrend felt guilty when he heard her words. He shouldn't have given her that idea.
Her birthday suit was all for him to admire.
"Anyways, are you going to answer my question or not?" Lawrend asked the Clan Head.
"..."
The Clan Head and Vernon looked at each other before he ca to a decision.
"I will, but will you make a blood contract with that you won't kill my son imdiately after this?" the Clan Head asked.
Once he spilled everything, he was dood. He could only save his only heir.
"Alright." Lawrend nodded his head.
A blood contract appeared in Lawrend's hand, and he wrote so terms on it. He then passed it to the Clan Head.
The Clan Head modified so before they signed the blood contract together. It entered inside their wrists and activated.
He then opened his mouth and started revealing everything he knew.
