Chapter 913 End of the Grand Banque
Davis kept feeling a bit complicated.
He felt like he could not make a decision after hearing all this from Ancestor Dian Alstreim. The other party was not openly hostile or even antagonistic, to say the least. Heck, it seemed that they were being welcomed with open arms as long as they could forgive everything.
But how could he be naive enough to believe that everything would go their way after they forgave and joined the Alstreim Family? Where is the proof that the enemies would not try to kill them out of fear of repercussions?
In the end, it was his mother’s revenge, after all, not his own revenge. If he went and slaughtered those people responsible, who would undoubtedly object to his killing and have others support them, resulting in many more being killed, would his mother be happy with the end result?
He felt that the moment he took action, it would end in a bloodbath with him walking on a mountain of corpses at the top, but would his mother would still be happy?
He suddenly remembered Tina Roxley for some reason. She was a real-life example whom he could use to compare.
Was she happy with killing her deviant father, her family member, who seemed to be intent on violating her? Perhaps she was happy, but he couldn’t possibly know what she truly felt inside.
Perhaps she longed for a true father who looked after her, no?
Ancestor Dian Alstreim abruptly asked, "Do you agree to become the Young Master of the family?"
Davis closed his eyes before he opened after making a decision, "What I do in this family ultimately rests within the decision of my mother. So if you don’t want a bloodbath to take place, make sure you please my mother to her heart’s content."
"However, if you dare try to do anything harmful to our group..."
Davis just shook his head. He felt that his intent would’ve crossed across.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim creased his brows in displeasure, feeling that he was really taken for a crap. He felt that he shouldn’t have bowed to this brat. However, feeling that he had to do this for the family, he didn’t say anything and just nodded his head with a haughty expression on his face that didn’t help to relieve the current tension one bit.
"Hahaha! Youngsters are like that. I hope Conferred Queen won’t take offense at my granddaughter’s immature actions." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim laughed.
"Of course..." Princess Isabella’s expression became dreamy as she curled her flowing purple hair by her ear, "Make sure you treat her better..."
Even after the banquet, she was still continuing to act her part, even experiencing a bit of fun in it.
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim forcefully nodded his head, increasingly finding the Conferred Queen to his liking, "Yes! She is our gem, the Alstreim Family’s gem."
He then shot a look towards Logan, feeling complicated.
He had already learned what had happened from Nora Alstreim and understood that it was nothing but a misunderstanding that emerged from the smokescreen, so he was no longer feeling like holding a grudge anymore. Even though Logan did cause harm to Nora Alstreim, he did feel a bit of gratitude towards Logan for ultimately saving Nora Alstreim.
His initial hateful reaction was something natural. It was in his heart to care about his granddaughter, and he couldn’t do anything about it.
But, Nora Alstreim left out certain information from her explanation. She didn’t explain how she was saved. She did not explain how her waist was captured by both hands, embraced by his arms, her bosoms pressed against his chest, their faces close as if they were going to share a kiss at the heat of the moment.
If Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim even heard a bit of this episode, it was unknown what he would do to Logan.
After a bit of standing conversation and polite refusals, Princess Isabella accepted Grand Elder Krax Alstreim’s invitation to accommodate them. Grand Elder Krax Alstreim showed Conferred Queen’s group the way while also taking Daniuis Alstreim along with them.
They all traveled in a group before they arrived at the guest palaces.
There were a number of glorified floating palaces in this particular area, with each one of them furnished by a magnificent color that shined upon being reflected by the sunlight.
In the air above them were two figures floating above the palaces.
"Are you sure that you don’t want to talk with my mother now?" Davis asked.
"Mhm." Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded his head, "You can make yourselves at home first."
