Scarlet House, Ocien.
"They are here.." Naze informed as he walked through the door.
The team on the mission to destroy the Dark Society had finally reached the Ocien.
"Did they feel anything?" Max curiously asked.
"Everyone is not like you." Naze shook his head. It might be very easy for Max to discover Demons, but it was not the same for others.
Max could discover the lower tier Demons from a distance away, but had to come in contact to discover the stronger ones. For the people of the Ancient family, they had to come in contact with low tier Demons, as for the higher ones it was not so simple.
"By the way there is a good and a bad news.." Naze suddenly added.
"What is the good news?" Max asked.
"Erina is returning.."
Max's brows jumped in surprise as a pleasant smile appeared on his face. This really was good news.
"What's the bad news?"
"Well, her reason for returning is not very pleasing." Naze forced a smile on his face. "There have been rumors that she is going to get engaged.."
Max frowned on hearing that.
"Who is the guy?"
Naze looked at him with a serious look on his face.
"This information of engagement actually wasn't floating in the noble society, but among the Ancient families.."
Max's expression changed.
"The rumors currently are pointing towards the Seventh Son of Storm House. He is Synthia's Half brother, born from a different mother." Naze further added.
"So, you are telling me that the Storm Family might be the one who had been supporting Talia." Max gave him a look.
"It might be too early to reach the conclusion. But, I think that someone among them is aware of Talia's identity and is still cooperating.." Naze nodded.
"What do you plan to do now?" Naze further asked, seeing Max sink in thought.
"Obviously, destroy this engagement. If it is being orchestrated by Talia, it will be anything but with good intentions." Max shook his head.
"True.."
"Find about this Seventh Son, I want to know what kind of guy he is." Max looked at Naze.
"It's better if you approach Synthia for this," Naze replied, "She won't only provide information, but might turn out to be a good help in this matter. After all, you don't just plan on putting your nose in this matter and go against the Ancient families, do you? Don't forget that you are supposed to be working with them in the current situation. So, it's better if you have someone from the Ancient Family on your side as well."
"Is there an issue between the siblings?" Max asked as he looked at Naze.
"Synthia's homosexuality is no secret among the close family members. She had been through a lot because of that. You will find out about it if you talk to her." Naze suggested.
….
The sky had turned dark, and the moon was up shining brightly in the sky.
Max had arrived at the place where the rest of the young members of the Ancient Families were staying right now.
He had bigger plans this time around, and just didn't want to destroy the dark society. But, it also meant greater difficulty.
For the starters, he knew that he had to get one girl under control. If he couldn't do it, this plan wouldn't even begin to be put into action.
If he wanted to test out the waters of the Storm Family for some evil fish, he would have to make sure that nobody would oppose him or startle the fish in the water.
So Synhtia had to be brought into the plan, otherwise it was not possible at all.
…
Synthia was inside her room. There was a deep frown on her face because of an unpleasant news that she had received.
It seemed that her brother was on his way towards Ocien. If possible she wouldn't want to see his face.
"Knock!"
"Knock!"
She looked towards the door and a smile blossomed on her face. She was expecting Rihanna to have come, but the moment she opened the door, the smile on her face slowly vanished.
The person standing outside was Max.
"What do you want?" She asked while looking at him.
"Would you at least ask me? I want to talk.." Max frowned looking at her.
Synthia gave him a look, and then allowed him in.
"So, what do you want to say?" She asked, looking at Max as they took a seat.
Max knew that she wasn't the kind to have a random talk with him. It was better to get to the topic directly.
"Is everything in your Family fine?" Max asked as he looked at her.
"What do you mean?" Synthia asked him with a frown.
"I have an intel from a trusted source."
"What kind of intel?" Synthia further asked.
"Your family has something to do with the Demons." Max calmly stated.
"Bullsh*t! That's not possible!!" Synthia immediately stood up in anger, ready to revolt.
"I came here to talk peacefully. You really wanna act like this?" Max glared at her, and Synthia calmed down and sat back onto her seat.
"I don't know where you got that intel from but I know it's fake." She was still not willing to accept.
"I have verified it at one instance. There is indeed some kind of connection between Demons and your family." Max looked at her with a serious face. Bayu's case was a solid example.
"No! You are lying!" Synthia looked at Max in disbelief.
"The program to create wielder. Who was the person behind that project?" Max asked as he looked at her.
This was some important information.
"My Second Uncle.." Synthia replied with an odd look on her face. She had no idea why Max was asking her that. To be honest, the success of this project had actually allowed her Second Uncle to gain quite the reputation. Even she admired him.
"What proof do you have for those accusations? Show me, or don't expect me to be polite with you..." Synthia glared at Max, she wasn't going to let go of this easily.
