Chapter 778 The Bloodheart House Cannot Take The Responsibility.



"No."

The moment Orpheus heard Nux's request, he shook his head.

Nux and his wives frowned in confusion,

"Why? What is the problem?" Nux questioned.

Orpheus observed Nux for a while and then replied.

"You are asking us to hunt Ten thousand 10 Star Beasts Nux."

"Lord Orpheus, we both know that for the Bloodheart Heart, something like this is not difficult."

Nux spoke as he looked into Orpeheus's eyes.

Orpheus glanced back.

He knew that Nux's ability to sense his surroundings is abnormally strong. Nux knew what many didn't know, however,

"Things are not that simple, Nux."

Nux frowned and Orpheus continued,

"You are only considering killing 10,000 Beasts, and you are correct, it will take a decent amount of manpower, but it wouldn't be difficult.

However, the problem is what happens after we kill those beasts.

Killing Ten Thousand 10 Star Beasts, do you think the other Star Beasts would remain silent?

If we carry out such a huge hunt, the Beasts would react, the adventurers hunting in the Wilderness would all die, and those beasts wouldn't be silent.

They wouldn't be able to enter the Blood Kingdom, yes, however, Vampires wouldn't be able to leave this place either. Those Beasts wouldn't forget what we did, the moment any Vampire tries to leave this place, those Beasts would hunt them down.

The Vampires being trapped due to mere Beasts, no Vampire would be able to take that, the Royal Family would be forced to interfere, and this would lead to a War between Vampires and Beasts,

And the causalities in that war is not something my Bloodheart House can take responsibility for."

"…"

Nux turned silent when he realized the aftereffects of his request and it may look a little far stretched, however, Nux could see that happening.

Ten Thousand Semi Saints, any force would be fume in rage if they lost them, even if they were the brainless Beasts. A large-scale hunt like that would definitely have repercussions.

Nux's wives turned silent as well.

They understood the problem. Killing 10,000 Semi Saints was indeed impractical. Even if they were strong enough, unless it's a war, collecting that many points are nothing but a pipe dream.

"…"

The entire room turned silent as Nux and his wives glanced at each other.

'Why don't we lower the number?' Amaya suggested.

'I need that many beasts to buy what I want.' Nux replied.

'Nux, 10,000 Semi Saints means 1,000,000,000 points, what are you trying to buy with so many points?'

'A 12 Star Ability.'

Nux replied with a serious look on his face and hearing his words, Nux's wives' expressions changed.

'A 12 Star Ability? That's… something that might give you a power close to a Saint Stage Cultivator.' Amaya muttered.

'Well, that's not exactly true, but that ability is still-'

'Worth it, yes, we know, you have said that many times now, Nux. But you have to understand, Lord Orpheus cannot help you.' Ember spoke with a serious look on her face.

'You need to think of something else, or buy a lower tier ability, I am sure even an 11Star Ability would increase your strength to another level.'

'It is not about my strength, Ember…' Nux replied as he continued to think of a way around.

"Lord Orpheus."

Suddenly, a voice called out.

Nux turned around and noticed Melia stepping forward.

Orpheus glanced at his daughter and tilted his head in confusion.

"What is it?" He questioned.

"You said the Bloodheart House wouldn't be able to take responsibility if the situation leads to the War, correct?"

Melia questioned. Her tone was a lot different than before.

"That is correct." Orpheus nodded.

"So what if the war never happens, would you help our clan in that case?"

Melia questioned.

Orpheus glanced at his daughter and realized that right now, she wasn't his daughter. She was a member of Nux's clan.

Seeing this, Orpheus smiled inwardly, but at the same time, he frowned.

"What are you suggesting, Melia?"

"The higher the level of the Star Beasts, the higher their intelligence, 12 Star Beasts can even communicate with us, right? They are intelligent enough to form their own packs, no, at that point, it is better to call them clans, Beast Clans."

"Melia, what are you trying to say, express yourself clearly."

"I am saying that if the Star Beasts have Clans, then I am sure those Clans would have differences against each other."

Then, a small smile appeared on Melia's face as she continued.

"Differences that can lead to war."

Hearing those words, Orpeheus's expression changed, even the way Nux and his wives glanced at Melia changed.

"You are trying to-" Amaya, who somewhat understood what Melia was trying to say wanted to question, however, before she could, Melia continued.

"What if it is the Beasts who fight amongst themselves, and I am not talking about just normal squirmish between the two beasts, but a War between two big clans led by 12 Star Beasts?

I am sure the Bloodheart House wouldn't be blamed for that, right?"

Melia proposed and as her words sounded throughout the room, everybody's expressions changed.

"You want to instigate a Battle between two Beasts Clans," Amaya muttered.

"That is correct."

"But how do you plan to do that?"

Amaya couldn't understand.

"I am sure we have the perfect person for that." Melia glanced at her father and smiled.

Orpheus, obviously understood who his daughter was talking about and what kind of plan she had in her mind, however,

"What you are thinking is plausible, but…

Do you really wish to go that far?"

"I trust my Clan Leader and I will do whatever I can to help him get what he wants." Melia smiled a little as she glanced at Nux.

Nux's eyes met Melia's and he smiled.

Melia nodded, Nux nodded back, and the two continued to look at each other, it was as if they were talking with their eyes, however, before they could continue this,

"You need to convince her on her own, Melia.

We will only talk about this if she agrees to it."

Orpheus spoke.

"I understand. I will get back to you once I convince her,

Thank you for your time, Lord Orpheus."

Melia bowed and then, she turned around.

Nux seemed a little surprised by what happened, however, seeing that Melia was about to leave, he stopped thinking and followed her, the wives followed them out as well.

Once Orpheus was alone in his room, a small smile appeared on his face,

'She is changing.'

Then, he closed his eyes and prayed for the person Melia was going to next.
