Chapter 10 - Which Family Are You From

Before sunset, Devon and Mae had arrived at the All Heaven Alliance main gate.

The gate was so wide that it could accommodate a family of giraffes. They were four guards at the front of the gate, two on the left and two on the right.

When the guards spotted Mae coming, one came running at her while the other three did as if they didn't see her coming.

"Welcome back lady Mae, madam has been searching all around for you."

"Also lady Mae, the matter has been confirmed your father is about to act on it."

The guarding eye was only on Mae throughout the whole time, ignoring the person beside her like he was beneath him.

"Alright then, let's go Aiden"

Mae grabbed Devon's hand intentionally pulling him along with her, that was a sign showing them how important he was to them.

The three guards who remained at the door looked at each other confused at what just happened.

Lady Mae went out alone, but she returned with a young boy in her hand.

Mae walked inside the gate with Devon, she walked straight to the main compound.

All Heaven Alliance had a very moral hierarchy. The members were grouped into four categories. Low tier members, Mid-tier Members, High tier members, and the Core tier members.

With members of different tiers being afforded different privileges. The Low tier members wore pure white, the mid tier wore Red with a white sash around their waist, the High tier wore purple and the Core tier members had the right to wear Black.

"Isn't that Lady Mae and who is that with her?"

"I heard her engagement is about to be called off."

"No one wants someone who can't get over her past relationship."

"That sucks."

Ignoring everything she just heard because it was meaningless, to talk to them about it. Most of them were supporting her brothers.

"It must be tough around here."

Devon could tell she was hurt by those words, he decided to ease the tension a little. And besides acting too unbothered wasn't good, it makes people think you have an ulterior motive.

"Don't worry about it, I'm already used to it."

Mae kept it short, as she preferred not to talk about it.

They entered the main compound. The Main compound was different from all other places in All Heaven Alliance. It was only meant for the High tier members and Core Members.

The Celestial energy in the main compound was three times thicker than the one outside. It served as a goal for the low and mid-tier members.

Entering the main compound without being either a High tier member or a core member was punishable by death.

After entering the Main compound, she let go of Devon's hand, then walked straight to a Hall. She stood there for a minute then pushed the door, entering inside the hall

"Father why don't we exterminate the Rogue League once and for all."

They were four people inside in the hall, no three inside two young men and one woman. One of the young men was arguing with someone about exterminating the Rogue league.

It was then Mae and Devon entered the Hall.

"Well, Well, Well, What do we have here"

"I honestly thought you ran away with that piece of thrash who you call your lover."

Devon recognized this person, he was the one he met the day the Rogue League was recruiting new members.

Damian Silas.

Ignoring what her brother just said, Mae went straight to the woman who was sitting on a black chair.

"Mother."

"Get back!!!!!!"

A voice brimming with celestial energy shouted at Mae, sending her flying away in the process. Surprisingly, the voice wasn't from the two young men or the woman in the hall, it belonged to someone else.

Devon looked around the hall trying to find the person who owned that voice, but he couldn't see anybody except the three who were inside,

Blood was seeping out from Mae's mouth.

"Nicholas, that's not how to treat your daughter, especially not in front of a visitor."

It was then they all realized that someone was beside Mae.

The woman got up from her seat and went to pick Mae up.

It was when the woman went to pick up Mae, Devon realized he couldn't see her face. It seemed blur-like something was blocking his view.

"Mae, how dare you bring a visitor inside the Hall."

That was Damian again, it seemed Damian was the lousy one while the other was the calm one.

"Damian shut it."

Like a cat who just had its tail stepped on, Damian backed off with his face down. It seemed he was terrified of this woman.

"Mae, who is this your friend?"

Mae wiped the blood right at the corner of their lips, a smile appeared on the man's face her mother was always on her side.

"This is Aiden, a new member of All Heaven Alliance."

"I invited him in personally."

"Mae, who gave you the right to invite someone in?"

Damian intervened in the matter once again, but this time the look he got from the woman was deadly.

He didn't need anyone to tell him, he walked out of the hall gently without looking back.

"Oh, oh, for my daughter to invite you in personally there must be something special about you."

The woman turned to look at Devon.

Devon was shaken, he experienced a pressure he had never felt before. Even his father did not make him feel this kind of pressure.

He felt like all his secrets were being exposed to the woman. The gaze of the woman was so terrifying that he felt suffocating.

"For someone without celestial energy, I must say you have a good physique."

Which only means one thing.

"Which family or Organization are you from?"

Meanwhile, the other brother whose face was down the whole time looked up, it seemed this question picked his interest.
