Chapter 137 - To Merge The Two Societies

At the Convel Society Territory

Decan growled as he stormed inside the meeting hall.

"We should have put guards at the open training ground in the north. I sensed a strong presence just a while ago!" he barked. Although the strong presence had quickly disappeared,  it was still alarming that it had even been there in the first place.

"Relax, Decan… I'm sure it's just some random troll, ogre, or witch," Danos mocked. All of them were aware that no one alive could ever penetrate to that side of the territory. They would die before they could even reach the north side of the Convel Society. That was why it wasn't guarded. They simply didn't see the need to waste resources for it. And the treaty ensured that no creature would dare enter their territory from the north.

"I agree with Decan. It's still for the best that we put guards there as a precaution," the other elders seconded.

"Yes. King Theodulf already instructed me about it along with the line-up of duties. The rotation should start tomorrow at dawn. Please look at the folders on your desk. That's the plan for the attack at the Moon Clan, particularly at Marcus's residence and where he's supposedly located," Aspen briefed as the elders and officers quickly glanced at documents.

Aspen signaled his men to turn on the screen in the meeting hall for a wide projection display off the plan.

"This… Where did you get all of this information?" Danos questioned as he stared at the complete details pertaining to the Moon Clan.

"I already told you that King Theo is working hard to extract the information himself, so I trust that you will no longer question his presence during this time. He'll come back soon, so we must prepare everything as he asked till then," Aspen reminded.

"He wanted to reclaim the Moon Clan… What is his plan? Rule two societies?! We already know that he's Nathaniel Yue, so why are you still addressing him as Theo?" Danos scoffed.

Aspen let out a sigh. Theodulf was Nathaniel's wolf name. He forgot to ask Nathaniel if he preferred to be called Nathaniel now, since he had already disclosed his real identity to the Elders.

"I will ask him what name he'd prefer us to use in addressing him later. And about ruling two societies, the Elders and the officers could ask him that directly once he comes back. I had assumed that he'd be back by next week, but for now, the main goal is to prepare everything we need until his return," Aspen explained.

"What kind of plan is this? Isn't this too generous?" Danos asked in a mocking.

"The King didn't want to spill innocent blood, so the main goal is to finish Marcus and Yun along with all of their followers…"

"I heard that Marcus's daughter is gorgeous. It would be a waste to finish her off as well. I will take that one for myself," Danos enthusiastically declared.

Decan shook his head. Danos was a plague to their society. He should have taken care of him during his reign, but then again, they still had rules that needed to be followed. As such, it was not so easy to bring the man down. He was cunning and calculative enough that he even managed to frame all of his deeds to Boris, the former alpha of the Night Crawler. He had Boris banished from the Convel Society far too easily, making the current Alpha of the Night Crawler nothing but a puppet in Danos' hands.

"The King would only have a chosen few to accompany him in penetrating the Moon Clan," Aspen added.

"I see… He wanted to spare innocent blood? Then what about the innocent blood Marcus had taken from our society? Isn't he a bit biased by having Moon Clan blood flowing through his veins? Isn't this unacceptable, gentlemen? Can't you see what his main goal is? He's practically using the Convel Society to exact his revenge on Marcus! He's not doing these things for the welfare of the Convel Society, but for his own personal vendetta!" Danos barked. He wanted to take down the entirety of the Moon Clan! He wanted no one to be spared!

Murmurs erupted inside the meeting room, making Aspen sigh.

It was at that moment that Nathaniel's face appeared on the screen. Everyone fell silent, showing their respect to Nathaniel.

"I apologize if I still can't appear in person. I'm sure Aspen wouldn't call me if there's nothing important going on. Please feel free to fire away all of your concerns," Nathaniel said with a serious face.

Aspen quickly asked him about what name they should use to address him properly.

"You can address me as Nathan…"

Decan spoke next as he relayed Danos' concern about him having a personal vendetta. Decan was also curious about his plan, so he asked, "Do you plan on ruling at two societies once we succeed in taking down Marcus?"

"I plan to merge the two societies into one…" Nathan answered with a straight face.

"That's absurd! No one in their right mind would agree on that!" Danos yelled.

Nathaniel's face darkened as he hissed, "I see that you're always disrespectful, Danos. Does the Convel Society not have rules on how to properly address their Kings? I should probably focus more on the order and decorum going on inside the Convel Society. If you, Danos, yelled at me one more time, then don't blame me if I decapitated you first as soon as I return…"

Danos's face paled. No one dared to ever threaten him! He looked around for support, only to see that everyone in the room had already cowered before their king. Danos inwardly cursed as he unwillingly whispered, "I apologize, my King."

He quietly clicked his tongue. He was only waiting for the attack on the Moon Clan to be over. And after that, he would definitely kick this young man's ass out of the throne that rightfully belonged to him!

"About the merger I'm planning… I know it may sound outrageous at first, but I truly believe that it can be achieved. I will personally discuss more about the details once I return. We will weigh the benefits, as well as the pros and cons together…" Nathan flared at Danos as he continued, "Until then, I hope that everyone cooperates with the plan of not spilling innocent blood."

Nathan knew that his idea would be difficult to impose, but he strongly believed that it could be done, But if not… then he had no choice but to choose between the two societies.
