Chapter 533 - Witch Clan: Truth And Final Quest

Amanda stood up and walked towards the door. She raised her hand and grabbed the doorknob before she slowly opened it.

What stood beyond the door was an old man with short white hair and a long beard. He was one of the two remaining elders in the Witch Clan, Elder Guan.

"Why are you here elder? Is there something wrong?"

She asked in a low voice as she looked outside and the only person that she could see was Elder Guan. Aside from him, there's nothing else that she could find.

But why would Elder Guan appear in front of her door at midnight?

"Young Miss, forgive me for my rudeness but I have something to tell you." Elder Guan said as he slightly bowed his head. His eyes were full of remorse as he glanced at Amanda.

"What is it?" Amanda asked as she slightly tilted her head.

"About your parents..." Elder Guan said in a low voice as he stared at Amanda's eyes with a serious look.

"...C-Come inside the room..." Amanda hesitated for a moment before she opened the door.

She heard them along with Clan Leader talk about her parents but somehow she felt that they haven't divulged any important details to her. She wanted to talk to Souta about this uncomfortable feeling tomorrow morning, but it seems that this elder was going to reveal something to her.

'My clan, my parents, why do I feel something is wrong?'

She said inwardly as she watched Elder Guan enter the room. The elder sat in front of the table and she sat opposite of him. The atmosphere was cold and they could hear the wind whistle outside the room.

Elder Guan sighed before he looked at Amanda. He slowly opened his mouth and asked, "Young Miss, do you believe that this is not the only planet that has living beings in the universe?"

"Yes, there are records in the south continent about it. Those planets are too far from us so they couldn't be reached by normal means. They could only set up teleportation circles to easily reach those planets. But no one knows how to use those teleportation circles today." Amanda replied.

"Exactly. Several decades ago most of the large organizations in our world knew how to create and activate teleportation circles. It's the same for our clan. We have some planets under our rule before the war occurred. Strangely all the experts about teleportation circles had died in the war. Your mother and father are included in those experts."

"What?!" Amanda opened her eyes widely.

"The Council of High Worlds. Have you heard about it before?" Elder Guan asked.

Amanda shook her head and said, "I've heard about it before but I don't know if this is true or not. The information about this organization is too little. Is this organization related to the death of the experts in teleportation circles?" She'd heard the Council of High World before. It was the time when Souta was talking to that woman called Eilish.

"The war decades ago is their conspiracy to control our world. The god's inheritance that appeared was their doing and they are also responsible for the assassinations in different factions at that time. They caused everyone to fight among themselves and when everyone was weak they slowly seeped into our world to control it.

"The Council of High World is an organization that we know less. It's mysterious and powerful at the same time. I don't even know the extent of its full force as from what I've heard only a few people from the council bother our world. It means that the people that created the war aren't everything. That's the reason why they didn't even launch a frontal assault at our bases."

Elder Guan took a deep breath before he continued.

"But is that really the case? Gods are real and they are in the Council of High World. The council control the Union Peace and we didn't even notice it. Our clan formed an alliance with it to defeat the other organizations but then before we realized it we slowly fall into their trap."

Amanda didn't say anything. She just kept listening to Elder Guan's words. The information that she received right now was something that she didn't expect. It was huge information that could create chaos outside.

"Your parents visited you at that time to check your condition but they didn't even know that the enemy will attack. Rowan, the current Clan Leader, betrayed your parents. Your parents are helpless against him as he caught them off guard. He colluded with the Council of High World and it led to the death of thousands of our clansmen. It's all because of the treasure in the god's inheritance called soul booster. It was a treasure that could enhance the soul of a person to the next level but for us witches, it will enhance our soul weapon."

"W-What?! T-The Clan Leader... H-He is the cause of the death of my parents?!!"

Amanda couldn't believe what she heard. Clan Leader Rowan was her father's younger brother so he was her uncle. But he didn't expect to hear something like this from Elder Guan.

Then, why would he look at her with those eyes? Those kind eyes? Is it an act? But it was too real for it to be an act.

"I know it's hard to believe but it's the truth. About the council, only a handful of people knew about them in our world. What I'm wondering about is how did you survive? Everyone thought that you have died, young miss. You shouldn't have come back here so I suggest that you should leave this place as soon as possible before Clan Leader does something to you." Elder Guan looked at Amanda with a wry smile and said, "But I'm happy that I could see you in the end. Our young miss has grown beautiful and your parents will be proud of you."

"A-aa... I..." Amanda looked at the ground with blank eyes. Suddenly, she grabbed her head as intense pain assaulted her. "Argh!!"

Elder Guan noticed that something was wrong with Amanda. He quickly stood up and checked her pulses.

"What's wrong, young miss?"

...

Souta was surprised when he suddenly received the system prompt saying that he completed the Quest 3. He was just planning to investigate the truth as the Clan Leader's story was false but he didn't expect that he would complete it this way.

He received 10 skill points for completing it and he had a total of 32 skill points. When he unsealed and bought the [Nebula Heart] it left him 4 skill points. Then, he completed the Quest 2, and it increases his skill points by 7. He had trained for two weeks and some of his legion members completed some quest at that time so he earned some skill points this way.

32 skill points were enough to unseal one of the abilities in legacy but it wasn't to integrate it into his body. So he would save it for the meantime.

"Amanda!!"

Souta arrived in front of Amanda's room. He quickly opened the door and saw Amanda on the floor writhing in pain. Beside her was the old man called Elder Guan.

He went beside Amanda and checked her condition. He didn't suspect Elder Guan was the one who did it as he knew that the system was simply fixing her memory. It wasn't related to Elder Guan at all, but Souta was sure that he was the one that revealed the truth to Amanda and the reason why he suddenly clear Quest 3.

"You!" Elder Guan looked at Souta and narrowed his eyes.

"Place Amanda on the bed for now," Souta said as he walked outside the room. He would ask them after Amanda regained her senses. He could see from the system that it would only take five minutes to fix her memories.

"Damn! This is really bad!"

He couldn't help but glance at the Quest 4 which was said the final quest of this chain quest.

*Ding!*

Fuck! Asking him to kill a shackled realm expert was too much.

It was a different question if he would only stop the Clan Leader but killing him was entirely a different league. He wasn't even sure if he had enough firepower to deal a fatal blow to a weakest shackled realm.

...

Rowan, the Clan Leader, was in his room meditating. He suddenly opened his eyes and a fierce aura covered his body.

"Amanda, why didn't you leave this place? You even regained your memories so I would be forced... No, I..."

He said to himself and he looked like he was struggling.
