Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1045

Chapter 1045 Well?

The Thryskai stood in the skies with that sickly sweet smile. He knew that everything here was in the palm of his hands, just perfectly in his control.

Several gazes filled with hatred and discontent landed on Old Brama. He had never been able to control his temper or the things he did. He always moved to the beat of his own drum.

When his value surpassed the faults he carried around with him, that was fine. But in these last several decades, it felt like he was just making one mistake after another, getting muddled in his old age, chasing after things that were beyond him as though he could feel his own mortality and wanted to forcefully change things.

Unfortunately, that was just not how things worked.

You couldn't just defy the natural order of things just because you wanted to.

At that moment, someone came rushing through the broken doors.

"Grandfather! Don't!"

Megean was huffing for breath. It wasn't a surprise that it had taken her so long to catch up. Considering the gap in strength between herself and Old Brama, the result was obvious.

But when she saw the scene before her, and the palm imprint setting into a bloody mess, her face paled.

She was still too late.

Megean knew that she was quite the airhead sometimes. She got it from her grandfather. Sometimes she ended up so focused on a task that little details slipped outside of her control.

But everything was always fine because of how powerful her family and Old Brama were.

Even so, she knew what things she should say and what she shouldn't. She had actually never brought up the incident to her grandfather at all.

Instead, her grandfather brought up her marriage, and how he knew that she had always hated it. Then he had said that if things worked out this time, there might be a chance to split from it and marry the man she truly wanted to.

If not for the suppression of Old Brama all these years, how could Megean ever be betrothed to someone she didn't like? The old man doted on his granddaughter far too much.

Unfortunately, Megean had made the mistake of thinking about Sylas at that time. She didn't even know the man, and she couldn't even say that she liked him. If she did, it wasn't much more than a crush.

Even so, at least to her conscious self, Megean didn't think that things were even that deep. It was just hard to forget the man who had accidentally seen something he shouldn't have when she was so innocent otherwise.

What she didn't expect was that an involuntary blush would lead to a line of questioning that left her grandfather fuming out of his ears.

She had tried her best to stop him, to say that he was wrong and that Sylas hadn't done anything to her, and that he was too weak to even if he tried, but Old Brama was having none of it.

At that point, how could she stop a C-Grade existence who wanted to go on a rampage?
