Chapter 21 Effortless Resolution
In Santos City, a group of excellent elf hunters were searching for the escaped Aishi. The wanted poster of Aishi in Santos had been posted for three days, and now was not the best time to search. Because generally at this time, the probability that the wanted person was still in the city was extremely small.
However, some routines still have to be done. The City's Zorvath Family Council, for Ai Xi, a former member, although everyone is familiar with her, not many people will pay attention to her.
After all, in every family in the city, such a phenomenon of power transition has almost occurred. People who met in the council yesterday may be killed by their families or opponents at home tomorrow, or even the entire family will be destroyed. In the city of Chor, where conspiracy is rampant, this is really a common thing. The destruction of families that are not strong and vigilant enough only explains their foolishness, and does not represent any other meaning.
In the city of Zorvath, no one sympathized with these losers. Because everyone understood that when they themselves failed, no one would sympathize with them either. So when the new family leader proposed a warrant for the defeated former family leader, the council in Santos City passed it without any obstruction.
"Sister, where did you run to?" Jill sat on the throne that originally belonged to her sister, symbolizing family power and rule, looking at the Zorvath elves in the hall who were originally under her sister's command, as if muttering to herself but also asking the people present: "Is there really someone who helped her escape from the city?"
The silent hall had no one to answer, for it had just gone through a family rebellion and now no one would dare to answer this question. The Zorvath elves who were familiar with betrayal and purge knew that at this time, anyone who answered would be treated as a scapegoat for not catching Aishi, regardless of what she said.
"Hmph! What a bunch of good-for-nothings!" Looking at the seasoned and risk-averse Zorvath, Jill angrily cursed: "It's precisely because of having subordinates like pigs that my beloved sister failed. If you can't find my sister within a month, none of you will be able to stay in your current positions!"
It's clear that Jill didn't really want to catch the runaway sister, but rather found an excuse to replace her original subordinates with more reliable confidants. Although it seems that anyone could betray in Zorvath's eyes, people she is more familiar with are easier to control.
"The wanted poster has been lifted." The doors to the hall were pushed open and a Zorvath elf stepped forward, bowing his head in report to Gill: "And the people, they have also brought them."
"What kind of people are they?" Jill thought for a moment and asked: "How many are there?"
Caution is never too much, in the Zhōu ěr Líng, the defeated side found a force to rely on. Pretending to be captured and then killing the traitor when meeting, taking back family rights is not uncommon.
"Only three came." The scout reported, "Two imps and one minotaur."
"Is it a succubus?" Gill thought for a moment and said, "It's rare to see a succubus in the dungeon. The one who can catch my sister is probably not an ordinary guy. Let Blue Rose wait in the next room. Now, go bring them here."
"Alright." The hunter nodded and walked out.
"Let me see, what card did you get, sister?" Jill stared at the tightly closed door in front of her, looking forward to meeting Aisha. Jill didn't think that Aisha, who had escaped for several days, would be caught by two demons again. If she returned to the dungeon, it meant that Aisha must have grasped the opportunity to turn things around.
The tightly closed gate was opened, and the firmly bound Aichi was pushed in by a large hand. The pale-faced Aichi lost his balance and fell onto the crimson carpet. A tall figure followed closely behind, its brown fur and cow head with two horns revealing the identity of the creature before them - a brainless Minotaur.
"Greetings, noble family head." Two demons emerged from behind the Minotaur's back and greeted Jill in unison.
"Are you the ones who caught my sister?" Jill asked bluntly, without any courtesy, and directly asked: "I'd like to know where you caught her."
"It was on the way here." The raven-haired enchantress replied, "She wanted to steal the supplies we were carrying, but she got caught in the magical trap we set. And after arriving at Santos, we found out that she is the person you need."
"No." Jill shook her head with a smile and said: "You are the helpers that your sister invited to help her regain her rights."
"It seems you don't want to pay the bounty, huh." The silver-haired demon said with a relaxed tone: "But that's not very kind of you, we've already brought them here. If you don't pay the bounty, it won't be good for your reputation if word gets out."
"Haha......" Mira's words made Jill burst out laughing, and discussing reputation with the treacherous Zorvath elf was apparently a hilarious thing.
"So you really don't want to pay the bounty?" a cow-headed man who was quietly watching from the side suddenly said.
"Oh... when will Minotaurs be able to speak the language of Elves too?" Gill looked at the Minotaur in front of her and said interestingly: "Or is this also a magic of Hell? What's the use of using such magic on a stupid Minotaur like him?"
"Master, I don't want to play with her anymore, it's so tiring." The silver-haired demoness shook the Minotaur's large hand and said: "You can just subdue her directly, this isn't fun at all."
"Betrayal is as common as breathing for Zorvath, killing foolish bounty hunters who come after the price on his head is just a normal thing to do." Aishi stood up from where she had fallen, effortlessly undoing the ropes that bound her and said: "And my sister is even more skilled in this aspect."
"Just as I expected." Gill looked at the stiffly twisting wrist of Aisha and laughed, saying: "However, my dear sister. Is this really the hand you've been dealt? A minotaur who can only speak in Elvish, and two imps stupid enough to think that the minotaur is their master?"
"In keeping with your cautious nature" Aishi didn't respond to Jill's words, but instead brought up something else: "I think you should have already arranged some hunters in the room next door?"
"That's right." Jill smiled and said, "They were your sister's former guards, unfortunately they have betrayed you and are now completely under my control. I think you should be the one who knows their strength best? Even the big families in the city have a high evaluation of this guard team that you personally trained."
"I'll be right back." After hearing Jill's words, the Minotaur opened another door in the hall and walked in. Soon after, the sound of Zorblort's angry roars, objects being smashed by weapons, and bodies crashing into walls could be heard. In less than ten seconds, the Minotaur walked out of the door, saying calmly: "It's all taken care of. They weren't that strong anyway."
"How is that possible!" Jill stared at the Minotaur in front of her, shouting in disbelief: "Those are the most elite warriors of our family! They absolutely cannot be defeated by a single Minotaur!"
"If it's the master, then it's possible." Aishi drew out the secret silver dagger hidden at her waist with a look of vengeful pleasure and stepped closer to Jill who was retreating into the corner, saying: "My foolish sister, you don't know what kind of powerful existence you're facing."
"Sister... I was wrong. Please forgive me, I'm willing to give up everything I've gained!" Gil, who had always relied on schemes and calculations due to her low combat power, chose to surrender without any resistance after losing the power she had been relying on.
"Is that so?" Ashi grasped Jill's neck from behind, ignoring the tears streaming down her face, and said in a low voice, "But I don't think so!"
Gil, who understood that she couldn't escape death, didn't struggle and closed her eyes, waiting for the fatal blow. However, all she felt was a stinging pain in her fingers. Opening her eyes to look at him with some surprise, Aishi was holding her hand and squeezing out blood. She had no idea why her previously cruel sister would spare her life.
"I'd love to kill you." Aishi placed the squeezed-out blood droplets on the dagger and glared at her own younger sister, saying: "But Master has let you live, so be grateful for Master's mercy!"
"You, the living one, are worth more than you, the dead one." The Minotaur sitting in the great hall where Gill had just sat, representing family rights and power, smiled as he pulled a Trollkin into his arms: "However, you must make a pact with your sister to help her gain absolute control over Santos. And I will be your master, and your sister's, Mo Yan."
