The bad-tempered family climbed back up on the hawks and they quickly ascended into the sky, Adam saw with anger the panorama of the Martial City and shouted: "TO EVERY CITIZEN OF THE KINGDOM ALBA, YOU HAVE TWO MONTHS TO LEAVE THE MARTIAL CITY, THE JAMES CLAN OR THE SEA PALACE, OTHERWISE I WILL KILL YOUR FAMILY, I DON'T CARE IF YOU ARE PLEBEIAN, n.o.bLE OR MILITARY, IF YOU DON'T COME BACK IN TWO MONTHS, SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR FAMILY, THAT INCLUDES YOU NATHANIEL, BESIDES THIS DECREED THAT ANY OLD MAN OR DISCIPLE OF THE MARTIAL CITY, CLAN JAMES OR PALACE IS FORBIDDEN TO STEP ON MY ROYAL CITY, IF ONE OF THOSE POWERS IS DISCOVERED, IT WILL BE EXECUTED WITHOUT ASKING QUESTIONS, YOU ARE WARNED".
This message shocked everyone who was in the Martial City and those who knew the old king knew one thing, this time he is angry.
Normally Adam was a kind and compa.s.sionate king, of all the countries in the Region, the Alba Kingdom is considered the best country to live in if you consider yourself a common person, since its king was a good king, there were low taxes and the land was very fertile so there were no famines.
He would never threaten anything as low as hostages so it could only mean one thing, this time these three powers angered the Alba royal family and wanted to demonstrate their authority at any cost. In addition to giving a message: "What does it matter if you joined a foreign power, you are still my va.s.sal?
This also meant something else and to say that I was not afraid of the three previous powers. If they did not do the will of the royal family then they would really kill them.
Now they would just wait and gather information from all the people who have joined those powers in the last few years and if they don't come back they accuse their family of Treason.
So without waiting for many people both young and old began to leave the Martial City, The tournament had already been canceled and their families were in the Dawn Kingdom. There were even some disciples who began to pack their things and leave the city. The trip would take them two months, so if they did not leave Martial City today they would not arrive in time to save their families.
So they quickly returned their tokens and left the martial city, many people now realized that the number of people who came from the Alba Kingdom was many.
The people who were in the James Clan could arrive on time once they found out about this but those at the Sea Palace, to arrive on time, would have to run day and night if they wanted to get to the Alba Kingdom before the deadline.
For no one thought that the old King was lying and would not kill their families.
Right now the Alba family hated those three powers to the core and will no doubt awaken a war if those powers dare to raise their voices. With the force exhibited by the old king, no one doubted that he was in the elemental half step and if we add the strength of his wife.
That alone made them terrible without counting the demonic talent of the family, Alexander Alba.
If a year ago he could kill a ninth level Qi gathering with a fifth level force, If the third prince reached the half step he would be invincible in the Region, so it was only a matter of time before the Alba family overtook the Royal Academy as the highest power in the region.
Because of those idiots, they canceled the tournament and made the powers lose a valuable opportunity to keep Sea Palace and the James clan happy.
There was one power that was very angry and that was the Grey Clan. Because of the inept.i.tude of the Martial City they had lost everything and left their genius without a chance to train in the Northern states.
So that same day, Sig Grey, the Supreme Elder of the Grey Clan went to talk to Freddy. To know how the martial city will compensate them.
Freddy could only put a forced smile on his face and say to Sig: "Why don't you go to the Alba family to ask for this, it was all his fault".
Sig only saw Freddy angry and said coldly: "His fault?, Because of your guilt and foolishness that none of us approached the Alba family all out of respect for the powers he already offended, all for unity and the Alliance to be able to develop us, Now my Clan Grey has no good relationship with them because of you, if I go there to demand things it wouldn't be weird if the old King beat me up, That old man is stronger than me!"
Freddy was surprised and said, "How do you know he's stronger than you if you haven't fought him?"
Sig just said: "you're an idiot, I can't believe I saw you as an equal, didn't you see how the delegate treated Adam?, That man was a half step Elementary peak and yet he was on the low side starting the conversation, plus he had a f.u.c.king Elementary opening pill!"
"Apparently the resources the Alba family has far outnumbered ours, I wouldn't be surprised if that Old Alba advances to Realm Elementary in a few years."
This surprised Freddy and did not think that if was seeing from afar but did not dare intervene, Because of the delegate.
In addition the declaration was very serious for Freddy since if the Kingdom Alba had an Elemental Expert its force would be shot to another level without speaking that the resources that it would have available would be many greater.
So making enemies of this family was the dumbest thing they could do, Now Freddy was worried.
But the worst thing was what Sig told him afterward: "My Clan Grey will Leave the Alliance".
"What, you can't do this! If we don't have an Alliance, how can we develop in peace?"
But Sig laughed coldly and said: "You think your Alliance is as solid as before, the James Clan and the sea palace are enemies of the Alba family, to be in the Alliance means to be on the side of those two. Now the Alba family promised benefits to the Royal Academy and the iron fortress but do you think the Alba family will compensate them if they remain in the Alliance? The answer is No if they want something they must first publicly announce their side. No one of you three can compensate you for our losses but the Alba family can. Now I wouldn't be surprised if the James Clan and the Sea Palace are trying to persuade others not to be on the side of the Alba family, but to be compensated you would have to give more than 45 million Gold, Something impossible for you, Only an idiot would believe your empty promises".
Freddy was silent and shortly after said: "Then the Grey clan seeks compensation from the Alba family through high-grade potions for their disciples".
Sig nodded and said: "It's the best, If we can get a large number of high-grade or higher-grade potions from the Alba family no doubt the quality of my Clan's disciples will increase, The Alba family said they will give 30 million in medications to each one, while my Clan Grey publicly contends the Alba Family it would not be strange not to be offered the same treatment".
Freddy could only sigh and nodded in his heart. In this region, there were not many capable alchemists and rarely high-grade medications could be seen but a few years ago the Alba family traded them for the head of the Sea Palace Elders. In fact, those rewards are still in force but due to the Alliance that had the powers of the region, none did anything no matter how greedy they were.
Now it seemed that the Alliance was about to break up and two factions were to be formed, The Martial City, James Clan and Sea Palace, while in the other would be the Alba family, Royal Academy, Iron Fortress and Grey Clan.
Sig left and Freddy could only sigh, thinking, "I just hope I don't choose the losing faction."
