Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 731
Capítulo 731: Carson Family (2)
What he had is the loyal sons and daughters under him. There were also nephew and nieces who were still willing to listen to him and felt that he was the one who hold the control of the entire Carson Family.
The appearance of these rank 7 magic beasts today didn’t mean much.
The city was still very orderly and nothing seem to have been affected, which made Old Master Carson wanted to start making his move. Because if City A Base remained so strong, it would be impossible for the Carson Family to get ahead in this lifetime.
Heh.
Stephen sneered. “Let me judge it myself.”
“Up to you. Follow me.”
Sophia looked at her brother worriedly, but he patted Sophia’s hand and didn’t let her follow him.
She could only stay there with Melly standing beside her.
“Woof!”
“Pfft.” Sophia couldn’t help but laugh when she heard the way Melly addressed her grandfather. She patted the naughty dog’s head helplessly. “Don’t say nonsense. What if others heard?”
“Woof!”
“That’s wrong. There are other beast masters here,” Sophia corrected helplessly. She felt that Melly was simply seeking trouble for her.
Beast masters gained the ability to understand beast’s language. Moreover, Murin had already publicized the various methods that they could use to learn the beast’s language. In a sense, even people who were not beast masters could also learn it.
But no one would purposely learn this language if they were not beast masters.
“Woof!” <Okay! But I don’t like him!>
Sophia smiled faintly and rubbed Melly’s head tenderly. She didn’t like her grandfather that much either, but after living under his shadow for a long time… it was hard for her to get rid of this fear towards him.
Even if she knew that her brother was still here and standing in front of her, the sense of fear seemed as if it had been engraved deep into her bones, which made her feel rather helpless.
…
Stephen looked at Old Master Carson in front of him, his expression remained calm and indifferent. The contrast with the other members of the Carson Family was particularly obvious.
Old Master Carson looked at Stephen and sneered. “Are you going to stop pretending now?”
“There’s no point in pretending when both of us know the truth,” Stephen said calmly.
“Are you going to declare war against the Carson Family?” Old Master Carson asked lightly. “Do you really think that you have this qualification, Stephen?”
“I have long expected you to make a move.” Stephen looked at Old Master Carson in front of him, his eyes gleamed slightly. “Do you think that I will come here unprepared?”
The two people looked at each other, their auras seemed to be colliding against each other. It was impossible for Stephen to make a move against Old Master Carson but at the same time, Old Master Carson had to be wary of the things that Stephen prepared.
Looking at his grandson who took out a file and placed it on the table, Old Master Carson’s eyes narrowed.
“You’re indeed one of the best, Stephen.”
“Thank you for your compliment.” Stephen smiled politely. He had been staying in the Carson Family for so many years and also got involved in their business. Naturally, he knew various things that the Carson Family usually did.
Through these things, Stephen would be able to explore what Old Master Carson has been doing and so on.
Besides, Samuel was also supporting him.
“Leave City A Base,” Old Master Carson said coldly. “Otherwise, I won’t let you off.”
“That’s my plan from the beginning.” Stephen turned around and then added, “Of course, if you want to make a move against us, I don’t mind sending these things to your competitors on each field. I’m pretty sure that they will be happy to have one less competitor.”
“Don’t push your luck, Stephen.”
Stephen shrugged and simply walked out of the Carson Family without hesitation.
Stephen’s father looked at his son who didn’t even turn in his direction and he clenched his fist. He understood very well that Stephen didn’t have any intention of staying in the Carson Family anymore.
And as Stephen’s father, he might be dragged into their game and had to make the decision whether he wanted to support his own son or to follow his father and stay in City A Base.
But…
Stephen’s father couldn’t do it.
“Your son is very rebellious,” Old Master Carson said calmly and indifferently. “It’s really unfortunate that the world has become different.”
If the world remained the same, Old Master Carson was confident that he could control Stephen through controlling Sophia. Because the two brother and sisters cared for each other greatly and very dependent with the other party.
Besides, Stephen has already shown a great talent from the very beginning and was also one of the best grandson he has.
There were also other grandsons and Old Master Carson was not that interested to hold the power all the time. After all, he was truly old and back then, he had delegated most of his power to his descendants.
But after the world changed, Old Master Carson felt that his ambition was ignited once again.
This is a completely different world.
With the foundation of the Carson Family, it was not that difficult for him to gain foothold in City A Base and gained more power. But at the same time, it would be difficult for him to move forward without conforming to the new rule.
Among the younger generation, Stephen is the luckiest and also the most talented.
A pity…
He couldn’t use the other party.
“Father, Stephen…”
“I will keep my words for the time being.” Old Master Carson looked at his son meaningfully. “How about you?”
How about him?
Stephen’s father knew that Old Master Carson wanted his stance and the only answer he could give is, “…I’ll listen to you, Father.”
