Chapter 901 A Reunion Between Brothers
"Krax, bring those two in question." Ancestor Dian Alstreim instructed.
Grand Elder Krax Alstreim stood up and bowed before he left the elevated platform. A few people gathered around him, who then quickly went to collect information as they separated.
On the other hand, a certain Elder’s pupils trembled in nervousness. Some of the few people who were slightly in the know looked at him in a mocking light.
Daniuis became inwardly stunned.
Why did the Ancestor know so many things about him?
Was he truly going to be given justice?
Danius Alstreim didn’t know about the Ancestor much and could only see through the events that would take place in a few minutes. However, the dormant awe and respect that he held for Ancestor became alive and conscious again.
"As for the Grand Elder of the Tripartite Alliance’s Alstreim Family Faction, I heard that he was killed while his motives for being at that place, some kingdom I can’t recall, were unclear. From your statement, I can see that it connects the dots. As for who that Tripartite Alliance’s Grand Elder was working with, it should become clear in a few minutes, perhaps the way you expected." Ancestor Dian Alstreim calmly spoke.
Then as if he remembered something, he wryly chuckled, "I feel sorry for you two brothers. The Alstreim Family hasn’t treated you two well."
"Ancestor... I..." Daniuis didn’t know what to say.Immerse Yourself in the Storyverse: N♡vεlB¡n.
Something was welling up within his heart. Perhaps being treated right, he started to feel that this place wasn’t a lost cause after all. He had never seen the Ancestor before, but now that his Ancestor seemed to be upright and responsible, he felt that the Alstreim Family would perhaps move in the right direction.
Could it be that there was going to be reform?
But how? A reform meant that there would be enormous bloodshed within the family!
"You don’t need to say anything. Just let me bestow the justice you deserve. In the meantime, perhaps you can catch up with your little brother, no?"
Daniuis’s lips trembled.
What reverence?
What praise?
He didn’t feel that it would be wrong to be hated and have his name smeared into crap by his own little brother.
Poor Edgar Alstreim never got to see his mother and father as they had left soon after giving birth to him and died two years later while doing a mission, so Daniuis was the one who actually brought up his little brother to be a man. They belonged to a branch family and were a family of two, with maids serving them.
Su Hualing, Su Huabing, and Su Huajing helped him take care of his little brother. He had also assigned a charming and innocent maid to be Edgar Alstreim’s maid.
Edgar Alstreim grew up to be an extreme talent. His skills and prowess blinded the other talents, causing jealously and envy to take root in their hearts. Nevertheless, he wasn’t worried since he believed that his little brother would shine with his talent.
Everything was going well, and Edgar Alstreim became the Young Master!
However, Edgar Alstreim fell in love with his own maid and fathered Claire. What’s more, he did something absurd such as marrying that maid and gave her status that didn’t suit her stature.
It was fine if Edgar Alstreim was just another ordinary Alstreim Family member, but he was the Young Master at that time. There was no way the hateful and envious people would accept a woman of a lower standing tower over their heads.
Even he felt that it wasn’t appropriate.
Nevertheless, Claire’s mother was framed and killed using that questionable reason while Edgar Alstreim was forced to step down from the Young Master position while being crippled. Daniuis was devastated to hear that news at the time. He was conflicted. He felt the need to do something at that time but didn’t, and lost the opportunity to do so when he had the determination to do something.
However, it wasn’t long before he was exiled because of a lascivious yet retarded son and a protective mother when he protected his three maids. Only then did he understand what his younger brother felt when he lost his wife. Fortunately, he was able to realize that in time, crippling that lascivious son to protect his maids, where they had now become his three lovable and precious wives.
When he chose to leave in exile, he had actually asked Edgar Alstreim to go with him, but the latter rejected. He understood that his little brother held complex feelings towards him, such as hate since he didn’t help him at that time. Feeling guilty himself, he finally left with the triplets and his loyal butler, leaving the entire family property in Edgar Alstreim’s name.
It wasn’t a short amount. It could reach two thousand Peak-Level Spirit Stones in value! He left it all to his little brother out of the guilt he felt. He was no longer there to look after his younger brother and was forced to look after his own skin in the Tripartite Alliance Territory.
He accepted his fate and his own conflicting thoughts before he accepted them, making love with Su Hualing, Su Huabing, and Su Huajing, creating a family and establishing the Cloud Spring Mercenaries.
However, so many things happened in the end that he was unable to rebuild the relationship with his little brother.
In short, their relationship was nothing but complicated, so Lia Alstreim’s praise instead came off as sarcasm and blame to him.
