Sam was not surprised by the reply.
He has expected this completely. In fact, this is the most generic reply he could think of. The behavior, the fake smile, the diplomatic attitude, everything is expected of a young master.
He looked at Kach to see how he would react.
The young man still had that humble smile on his face.
"Ninth young master. You might have forgotten, but exactly three weeks and four days ago, you visited the Meadow clan.
One of our youngsters who has been practicing nearby has caught your eye and when you tried to make some conversation, he made some snide remarks. You wanted to punish him, but he retaliated.
Which is indeed a bit out of line.
The dispute escalated and you were angered because of the situation and brought the heirloom along with you. I have confirmed the story again and again and I even saw the memories of the person who started the dispute.
So, I am sure that it was you who visited the Meadow clan.
I can understand why you might have forgotten it though. Meadow clan is indeed not one of the major powers and we stay secluded. So, there is a chance that you might have forgotten about us. It is understandable.
But please return the sword.
I have a responsibility to bring that sword back to the clan as its guardian."
The manager whispered something to the ninth young master.
The young master looked at Kach and said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"So, you are the Guardian of the Meadow Clan. From what I know, the Clan guardian is a core member of the clan and responsible for the security of the clan leader and the reputation of the clan.
That means you must be careful with the claims you make. If you bring a disaster because of your accidental mistakes like accusing someone of something that they didn't do. So, please be careful and for any other help, make an appointment as I said."
As soon as he said these words, he prompted his horse to move forward.
Kach stood up and his aura changed a bit. The horse looked at him and sensed something is wrong which made it halt in its tracks.
Kach put his sword and the sheath back on his hip. He lost the servile attitude he had before.
Sam smiled and looked at the Ninth young master.
"You can only play for so long with a nice guy. I wonder how large this is going to blow up. Would you be able to handle it?"
He muttered to himself and waited for the show to go on.
"Ninth young master. I heard your reputation. Being a talented star of the Sura clan, with a blessed and resourceful life, you are the student of Brig one of the most talented and reputed people in the whole realm.
That is why, I bowed my head, surrendered my sword and pleaded you with absolute humility. But you, denying that the incident ever happened, makes me question your reputation. The fact that you stooped so low as to threaten me just reinforces that doubt.
I hope you can give our sword back. I am telling that I will not be leaving this place without sword and I will take it by hook or crook. Whatever means necessary."
He held the hilt of his sword and looked at the young master in eyes when he finished that sentence.
His aura changed, His face became blank. There is no hint of smile that was there a second ago.
The sword aura is raging, but in a controlled way.
"How dare you threaten the young master?"
There went the idiot of the group. The idiot that is always in a group. He impulsively made a move to fight with, Kach.
Kach drew his sword. The dark black blade created a sword ray that went for the neck of the opponent. But it disappeared right before it made contact.
"This is a warning, sir. Don't attack me. Or I will be forced to make a move as well."
His voice became colder and he held the sword in an attack stance. The surrounding air turned.
Ninth young master looked at the surroundings. Everyone is staring at him while whispering among themselves. He felt humiliated. It is embarrassing. By now he believed that everyone of them thought that he did whatever kach claimed he did.
Even if that is true, he is obviously not going to admit it. The things he did at the Meadow clan are not something he is proud of. And most of it happened because of his pride anyway.
Actually, the way Kach approached this whole issue gave him a lot of face and a proper way out. All he had to do is gracefully say that he accepted the apology and the Meadow clan is off the hook and return the sword.
He would be viewed as generous and kind. And might even have had a chance to recruit a good subordinate. Just from the looks of it and sampling that aura, Ninth young master clearly knows that this guy is really good.
Sam looked at the changing colors of the young master's face and smiled. He knew the situation would turn out this way. These young masters always make the stupidest decisions because of their pride.
As if proving his point, the ninth young master ordered his subordinates.
"Call the city guards. Arrest him."
One of his subordinates called for the city guards while the rest of the subordinates made their move. Finally, it is time for Kach to reveal his cultivation completely.
The peak stage cultivation of Astral Plane Consummate level and there is a hint of energy that Sam vaguely experienced before. The energy that he sensed when he was fighting the Divine league members. The Divine energy.
The person in the peak stage of Astral Plane Consummate stage would get to sense the Divine energy bit by bit and when they finally and the amount of Divine energy their current body can handle before they broke through kind of indicates the potential and the strength they will have in the Divine Plane of cultivation.
When Sam sensed the Divine energy of this person, he felt overwhelmed in a way. He came across Divine energy when the divine league tried to infiltrate and damage his soul network.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven Gail has activated some of his Divine energy, but this one is pure, denser and more powerful.
Ninth young master's face changed. He never expected that a clan who he pissed off at random has an expert at such level. That is very close to his teacher's strength. Now he is really regretting not taking the easy way out.
An expert of such level would have a high position in any large clan, if he wants. For such a person to be on his knees and begging him was already a great thing. Compared to the stupid pride of the Young master, it is way too much of a step down and now he is sure that things are going to get out of hand.
Kach held his sword and pointed it at the young master.
"I would like to avoid a fight if I have to. Please cooperate and give me my sword back. We can put this behind. I will apologize for my impudence and leave."
Ninth young master contemplated for a moment and wanted to take the deal. He just got accepted as the student of the Brig. There is a lot at stake. He doesn't want to risk it for a sword. Even though the sword itself is quite special in many ways.
As he was thinking, someone already made a move making this last chance go away.
One of his subordinates got down from his horse and attacked Kach.
"I already told you. I don't want a fight. But you are adamant about this. I am not going to stop until I am done with whatever I am tasked with."
Kach stabbed at the opponent. The sword seemed to have ignored the attack that came at him and directly went for the kill. The opponent is killed and Kach didn't stop there. He jumped forward with no intention of stopping.
Ninth young master's manager got off the horse and blocked the attack along with four more subordinates. The four subordinates and the manager are all at the peak stage. The manager even had a hint of divine energy.
All five of them surrounded Kach as they attacked together.
Kach blocked their attacks and went on a bit defensive. He is stronger than five of them individually and if their teamwork isn't so good, then he would have already won.
At least that is what Sam saw from the side.
But still Kach is handling himself pretty well.
Ninth young master was horrified as the battle went on. More and more people are gathered around and soon the city guards he called also joined into watch.
