Chapter 260 - Departing To Burkurel Re Clan

There was silence in the dining room as Re'Bah continued to sip her tea, finally shooting a glance at Re'Kha, "We'll depart to our Clan first thing in the morning tomorrow." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NøvᴇlFirᴇ(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality."Alright," Re'Kha nodded, showing no change in her expression. Until now, she was unable to determine her Clan's stance on the matter of her losing their Magic Artifact. And, her mother's expression gave her absolutely no information regarding that.

​​

Even though she felt vexed, she couldn't show that. Rather, Re'Kha had zero intentions to take the blame for that matter. The reason she had lost it in the first place was because her Clan members had betrayed her. And, the cause was most probably due to something the Central Lake Head had devised. She was the direct supervisor under the Clan Head.

In the absence of the Clan Head or cases of his demise, the Central Lake Head would be the controlling authority of the Clan. Moreover, she was the one who had the deciding authority in selecting the next Clan Head.

That was why Re'Bah was in conflict with the Central Lake Head in the first place. If she won and became the Central Lake Head herself, then she would be able to place her son as the Clan Head. After all, she had five children. And among them, Re'Kha was the fourth born, twins even.

Even though the affinity of Re'Kha to the water element was the highest among her siblings, she never had a good relationship with Re'Bah. After all, for some reason, Re'Bah had been busy ever since she gave birth to Re'Kha.

And all the time, Re'Kha was taken care of by her father. So, neither had any attachments to one another. As for her twin brother, he was a depressing individual and was hardly ever cared about by anyone in their Clan, Re'Kha included.

The person Re'Kha had the highest attachment towards was her father. Followed by it were her siblings who she grew up with. As for her twin brother, he had always lived in her shadow, having barely any presence, growing up while minding his own business. So, even she hadn't had much of a relationship with him.

All in all, they were a typical family in power.

As such, Re'Kha didn't even look forward to returning to her Clan all that much. Rather, the number of stormy situations she would have to face once she was there made her less inclined to visit there.

'I should just follow grandma's advice and vacate that place sooner or later. Otherwise, I might become like her.' Re'Kha thought as she glanced at her mother, noticing the other party eat some snacks in silence.

Finishing her tea, Re'Bah stood up and cupped her fists, "The tea was tasty. Now, we'll take our leave."

Re'Bah implied through her choice of words that she would like to return with Re'Kha. Even though Mu'Tua didn't like that, she didn't say anything, cupping her fists in response, "Alright, hope you have a safe journey."

As they walked away, Mu'Tua made eye contact with Re'Kha, signalling her to stay strong as she bade them farewell. Carrying her bag, Re'Kha mentally sighed, watching her mother get into the carriage first as she followed suit.

The carriage exited the Mu Clan's residence and spend along the roads, soon reaching one of the main roads of Burfuna City, plying through it for quite the time before stopping at a hotel. The hotel's ground floor was a restaurant meant for the customers living in it to dine.

And, just a single glance at it was enough to prove that the hotel might have been the most luxurious among all the hotels in Burfuna City. Upon seeing it, the eyelids of Re'Kha twitched. But, she didn't say anything, silently following Re'Bah as she entered the hotel.

Re'Bah made eye contact with a servant, motioning towards Re'Kha with the corner of her eye, "Give her a room."

Saying her piece, she didn't even bother looking back, heading towards the nearby elevator as she headed to the upper floors.

Re'Kha could clearly see the servant heave a sign in relief the moment Re'Bah had left the place. A couple of other servants too had stopped in their tasks, looking nervous until she had passed by.

'This always happens.' Re'Kha sighed, showing through her demeanour that she wasn't like her mother, "Please show me to my room."

But, even though Re'Kha put on a gentle expression, the servant looked terrified of her, trembling from time to time as he guided her through the elevator, showing her to her room on the third floor, "If you need anything, please ring the bell inside. We'll service you immediately."

"Then, get me something to eat now," Re'Kha said before opening the door to enter her room. The servant nodded and hurried along, intending to bring her food. Even though she had the option to dine in the restaurant below, seeing as how the servants assumed she was similar to her mother, she didn't wish to terrify them further, deciding to eat in her room. After all, they had similar appearances.

Once she had her dinner, Re'Kha activated her Wind Qi perception, expanding her senses to spy on her mother, noticing that she was looking at some documents, seemingly in a frown. Stationed at the entrance were a couple of servants that she had brought over.

But in reality, they were the Harmoniser Guards that she had personally nurtured for her protection. Since their families were under her control, their loyalty towards her was assured. Rather, they were ready to give up their lives when necessary.

There were five such servants in total, all women. The first two were stationed at the room's entrance. Two others were resting at one corner, intending to change shifts in the middle of the night. The final servant was standing a fair distance away from Re'Bah, ready to pick up any items upon instruction.

Unfortunately for Re'Kha, she was unable to see the contents of the scrolls through her Wind Qi perception. After some time, she didn't wish to observe any longer, deactivating her perception, closing her eyes as she fell asleep, "Burkurel Re Clan…"
