Chapter 317 The Celestial Token
Larissa remained silent, turning her head to look at Emrys instead.
Emrys sneered inwardly, then shook his head and said, “I’m not satisfied.”
“Oh?” Monaldo narrowed his eyes and asked, “So, how do you plan to punish Soren, Mr. Lund? Should I dismiss him from his position and forbid him from rejoining the Martial Arts Alliance? Or should I throw him into the dungeon?”
There was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Generally speaking, after providing such a significant way out, anyone with a sense of propriety would let the matter slide. Then, both parties could sit down for a meal as if nothing had happened.
However, when Emrys shook his head indicating his dissatisfaction, it naturally soured Monaldo’s mood.
In order to persuade Emrys to know when to stop, Monaldo added meaningfully, “Mr. Lund, although Soren was the first to act out of personal considerations in this matter, you must not forget that Travis has already died at your hands.”
He was issuing a threat.
After all, Emrys had indeed killed a person. If he continued to push his luck, Monaldo was fully capable of making a big issue out of this matter.
What does it matter if you are a Venerable One? I represent the Chanaea Martial Arts Alliance, where numerous Venerable Ones preside over the main alliance. If we were to fall out, it would benefit no one.
Monaldo thought he had hinted quite clearly, but to his surprise, Emrys shook his head and said, “I’m not satisfied.”
With a cold gaze, Monaldo looked at Larissa with a forced smile and said, “Ms. Lockwood, your younger brother sure is stubborn.”
The implication of these words was to tell Larissa to quickly persuade Emrys to quit while he was
ahead.
Larissa didn’t get a chance to speak before Emrys shook his head again and said, “I’ve already told you, I’m not satisfied. Are you deaf from all your incessant chattering?”
In an instant, the temperature in the air dropped sharply.
The expression on Monaldo’s face had turned utterly cold, for Emrys’ words just now were exceedingly disrespectful. It was clear that he intended to pursue the matter to the end.
How could he be so ungrateful?
