Chapter 3705: No Debates, Only Retribution (Part 2)

The Treant sent his vines into the open wounds of the Fae, stitching them close and stopping the bleeding.

"Now, tell me everything with a mind link." Lotho’s voice was the creaking of trees during a storm. "Don’t try to lie to me. I’ll know and do to you something worse than anything Verhen can."

"You are underestimating me." Lith said.

"No, Verhen. You are underestimating me." Lotho replied. "You know nothing of Fae anatomy, while I’ve written many books about it."

"Point taken." Lith had to admit that killing a Fae was still hard for him.

"You heard him." Feela said Hesaria. "No dumb tricks. Tell me everything. And I mean everything."

A few seconds later, the Representatives’ expressions went from surprised to shocked and then from shocked to disgusted in quick succession.

"You trusted the Incontinent King’s words without consulting me?" Feela’s face showed all three emotions at once.

"You plotted against an innocent boy who might become one of the most powerful humans on Mogar and tried to kill the future of the human race?" Raagu had never hidden her interest in Lith’s bloodline.

A Tiamat’s seven eyes came from his human side. Valeron was still small and weak, but once he grew up, he might pave the road for other humans to follow like his forefather, the First King, had done.

"You decided to gamble our lives in the attempt to survive?" Lotho’s outrage made the ground quake. "You fools! Fae are already branded as traitors after so many of us stupidly joined Meln’s army and became Upyrs.

"Now you follow his suggestions and play in his hands? Do you realize what the rest of the Council will think when they learn about your involvement in Meln’s plan?"

"This is our plan." A younger Treant tried to protest, but it sounded like the whining of a child caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

"This is his plan!" Lotho roared. "Meln wanted you to attack Verhen and his child. If you killed them, Meln would have gotten what he wanted. Since you failed, you just put another crack in the already shaky unity of the Council!

"Your loss is still Meln’s win!"

"How is Poopie involved in all this?" Lith asked.

Feela answered through the Spirit tendril, showing him the message the Awakened had received and how Meln had identified Valeron as Thrud’s son.

Lith clenched his teeth, inwardly adding the ambush to the long list of things his disowned brother would pay for.

"You guys crossed the line." Raagu seethed with anger, her face taut. "Everything you’ve done today is madness, but gambling with my life is the final straw. Had I arrived here first, I would have never survived Verhen’s blow."

"And neither would I." Lotho admitted.

There was a big difference between an ambush from a powerful Golem and a Divine Beast infused to the brim with Life Maelstrom.

"I’ll be honest. If not for my Griffon strength and hand-to-hand mastery, I would have died as well. I answered the distress call without preparing anything." Feela said.

"Exactly." Raagu nodded while raising her hand. "Since there are three of us here, all in favor of delivering the maximum punishment?"

"Aye." Feela and Lotho raised their hands as well.
