Chapter 609  Unacceptable!

Seidel Family Estate…

Bang!

Swoosh!

Suddenly, the Main hall's door swung open and a woman in violet robes charged in.

If not for her messy hair, puffy eyes, ruined mascara, unstable gait and the ominous air surrounding her, she would undoubtedly be a stunning woman. Right now, however… She looked nothing of the sort.

"Father! Is what I heard true?! That bastard is in the capital?" Ignoring the elders' glares, looks of disgust, mockery and pity directed at her, she shouted at the person sitting on the main seat– Grem Seidel, her father.

Being a powerful figure nearing the King Realm and the patriarch of the illustrious Seidel Family, he was a calm and composed man.

When faced with his dear daughter, however, he was nothing more than a normal father.

So, when he heard her cry and saw the almost crazed gleam in her eyes, he lost all his seriousness and calm he had while talking to the various elders just now and furrowed his brows in worry and a bit of frustration.

This woman, Helen, was his firstborn and only offspring from his first wife, the woman he loved most in his life and unfortunately lost a year after Helen was born. Maybe this was why he doted on her the most out of his several children. Then, when she grew up, to his joy, he realized she had the potential to reach the Emperor Realm. He immediately executed the people who knew about her potential to prevent her from becoming the target of malicious intentions. Since he didn't tell the family about her real talents, as per the family's rules, she couldn't enjoy the family's best nurturing. But… he went against the rules, and gave her the best resources and training, greatly displeasing the elders.

He, however, didn't care and using his authority and might, he suppressed all voices of dissent.

He had planned to let her reach mortal boundary at least before announcing her real talents. When the family found out, he knew no one would be able to say anything and his daughter, given her potential, would replace him as the family head.

However, when she was just a Two-star mage, she fell in love with some brat and secretly married him.

When he found out about this, he was so angry he didn't know what to do. All his efforts, all his hopes… she destroyed everything.

If she had just gotten married without his consent, he wouldn't have minded much and at most would have been a little dissatisfied. But she hadn't just gotten married, she had become pregnant too.

For a talented woman like her to get pregnant and give birth before reaching the stages beyond the mortal boundary was no different than ruining her potential and destroying her future.

Because of this, no talented women, or women who wanted to achieve their potential or reach greater heights, wanted to conceive a child prematurely.

In fact, most of them would even refrain from marrying, and some of them would go to the extent of remaining virgin, hoping to remain in their best condition to pursue higher realms. Only those who weren't talented or ambitious would decide to marry early and have children. What made him more angry was the fact that when he found out about her marriage and pregnancy, she had been pregnant for over a month. This meant he couldn't even abort her fetus because it had already been too late. Clearly, she had planned everything out beforehand.

He killed everyone who he had assigned to protect her and inform him if anything major happened before announcing she was no longer a member of the Seidel family and no one was to interact with her. This, he did not only out of anger, but also to protect her from the family. The family had the rule that main line's descendants, be it males or females, would get married to the one the family wanted. Those who broke this rule would either receive capital punishment or have their mana core crippled and imprisoned for life. Therefore, this announcement was the last protection he gave her.

The family elders were greatly displeased by this but he suppressed them with his authority and power.

Normally, this would have serious repercussions such as his removal from the family head's position. But because the Grand Elders had turned a blind eye to the incident and there was no person better than him to lead the family, no such thing happened.

But this changed a year later, when he found out that Helen had returned with her newborn son and wanted him to name him. His anger that he thought would never go away melted like snow, and despite the elders' protest, he allowed her in. This time, however, the elders weren't going to let him do whatever he wanted and alerted the Grand Elders, who usually cultivated in seclusion to breakthrough to the King Realm.

The Grand Elders were also dissatisfied by him and even though he wasn't dethroned due to the lack of better person to lead the family, he lost most of his authority and now had to discuss everything with the elders and only after more than half of the elders consented could he implement some new rule, policy or make any reform in the family.

This was why, when he heard Helen's son, his grandson–Jack Family–had been killed, he couldn't do anything to avenge him because Jack wasn't a Seidel and hence not a member of the family.

Though angry, he didn't say anything. It was mostly because he believed Helen and her husband–both peak Three-star mages–were enough to avenge his grandson. But when Helen returned, fuming in rage, he knew things didn't go as expected.

He was quite shocked and angered when he heard a King Mage had intervened and completely disregarded her even when she used the Seidel family's name.

Though it was commonly known that the four noble families only had just a few Five-star mages, those in the know knew how far from the truth it was. If they had just a few Five-star mages, they would have long become the vessels of the Royal family. Even the Royal family with all their power wasn't willing to offend them and let them be, but a rogue King mage had disregarded them? It was unacceptable!
