To their surprise, Astraeus seemed to have just let that slide.
“Mr. Garten, we’re now at Occasum Tower. It is built on a mountain slope and boasts a great view of the surrounding. Let’s have our dinner here tonight…”
Alexis led Isaac to a small tower on the west. They entered a room on the far west of the third floor; it consisted of vintage interior decoration and a faint smell of pine. Outside the window was a lovely scene of sunset on the mountainside.
“The scene here is pretty, indeed. Occasum Tower, huh? It’s a pleasant name.” Isaac nodded.
With the four elders accompanying them, Alexis sat next to Isaac. Beauties in mini dresses brought in the dishes one after the other. When the breeze blew, there were even whiffs of fragrances.
The elders started toasting Isaac. It was known that martial arts practitioners were immune to common alcohol but could still feel tipsy after drinking. Besides, it was how they show honor to someone.
They enjoyed their liquor while admiring the sunset. The elders watched their manners at first, but when they saw Isaac drinking carefreely, they became comfortable in their own skin.
Toward the end of the meal, Alexis shot the elder next to favonovel.com a glance.
He nodded and stood up, saying, “Mr. Garten, please enjoy the rest of your meal with our headmaster. We have some matters to take care of, so we shall take our leave.”
The other three elders also stood up, and all four rapidly left the room.
Alexis blushed as favonovel.com glanced at Isaac. She was worried favonovel.com would misunderstand favonovel.com intentions. She adjusted favonovel.com posture and said in a low voice, “Mr. Garten, it’s about Eastwell… I’ve obtained more information.”
Alexis glanced at Isaac cautiously. She was deeply concerned. “According to my investigation, Elder Cyrus gathered the Eastwell army under their command and the elites of the Neal family. You…You must look out for yourself…”
Cyrus was a member of the Council of Elders, and the Neal family was the most flourished martial family in Eastwell. He was a man of incredible strength.
Isaac pondered for a few seconds before bursting into a laugh. He looked into Alexis’ eyes and asked, “Alexis, do you think I am afraid of the Neal family?”
“I… I wish for your well-being,” muttered Alexis, lowering favonovel.com head as if favonovel.com was shy.
Holy Division was on the same boat as Isaac; all the martial powerhouses in Southland now knew that Holy Division was the only sect that decided not to be under Astraeus’ wings.
If any mishap happened to Isaac, that would be the end of the Holy Division.
At that moment, they heard a shriek of agony coming from downstairs.
A second later, they heard someone bellowing, “How dare your headmaster ignore me! Alexis Russo, do you think you can hide from me?!”
Alexis frowned upon hearing the voice.
Sh*t, that’s Raven looking for trouble…
Soon, an elder ran in, out of breath. “Miss Russo, R-Raven is here with a bunch of people. He accuses one of our students of injuring his subordinate and demands an explanation.”
“Let me take a look.” Isaac got up and smirked.
Alexis stopped him. “Mr. Garten, let me go first. If favonovel.com knows you’re here, there’s no knowing what else favonovel.com will do. He’s fearless because Cyrus is still on Mt. Equest.”
“Sure, go ahead.” Isaac nodded.
Alexis and the elder rushed downstairs to see Raven, in a cloak, leading seven other ferocious cloaked men and staring at her.
A dozen students and four elders were staring at their enemy anxiously.
“Alexis, although we are new to Mt. Equest, I don’t think that gives your student the right to bully us. You be the judge. Your student injured my subordinate, how should we settle this?” Raven laughed dangerously and pointed at a young man next to him.
The man’s face was pale, and favonovel.com was clutching his chest.
