Chapter 459 - Going Back
"That's what you're saying, not me. I only believe in what I see, and the First and Fifth Princes are the best ones so far. Even if it turns into a war, in the end, I will still select the one I think that's best suited for it."
Rean and Roan nodded.
"Well, is that all you wanted to ask? I have a court session this afternoon, so I can't waste too much time here. I've seen everything I wanted already, after all."
Rean then continued.
"Well, you probably won't answer it anyway. I want to know what happened to Vagro Sasamil and his wife. They are Calina's parents, after all. I know that it seems like Vagro tried to start a coup, but this story doesn't seem right. The only thing I'm certain is that they are alive."
Huan pondered for a bit before saying.
"You're right. I can't tell you anything about that. Anything else?"
The twins shook their heads. They really didn't expect to get an answer to that question anyway. Still, Roan got his confirmation about the time, while Rean got to put Calina into the man's head. That was basically everything they came here for. Well, they didn't even think they could have a chance to meet Huan before, so the current situation was already great.
"Very well. Let me call that annoying guy back."
A few moments later, Werxa returned to the garden and sighed in relief. The twins seemed to be fine, which was what he cared most about.
"So, will you still not tell me what that was all about?"
Huan shook his head.
"It has nothing to do with you. Anyway, you three can leave already. Remember, this meeting never happened."
Werxa, Rean, and Roan then went to the exit, soon leaving Huan's mansion through the same secret passage as before. Huan then stayed there, looking at the cup of tea.
"How long will you keep looking? Come out already."
As soon as Huan said that, Old Worm then appeared in the garden like a ghost.
"So, what do you think?"
Huan glanced at him before saying.
"Are they really just 16 years old? It doesn't seem like that. First of all, how can they cultivate that fast without a Light or Darkness cultivation manual?"
Old Worm nodded as he said.
"I know. That's why they're interesting. Rean and Roan definitely have some secrets hidden, but I won't pry into it. Everyone has their own secrets, after all."
Huan sighed and added.
"Alright. I have to admit that the Light and Dark Element exchange was intriguing. I just don't understand why they want to promote Calina to the throne. Was it really her who convinced those two to follow her? It doesn't matter how I look into it. They don't seem the type that cares about imperial power."
Old Worm shook his head as he responded.
"It's not like having a member of the Imperial Family owing them is bad either."
Huan narrowed his eyes before letting out a sigh.
"Fine. Let's just see what will happen in the future, then. Perhaps they have some connection to the prophecy. I'm going to the court session."
Old Worm nodded and immediately left the garden without anyone noticing.
Back at Rean and Roan's side, Werxa showered them with questions. Of course, they didn't say anything related to the conversation, much to Werxa's displeasure.
"Fine. Anyway, let's go back to the guild. You need to come out the same way you entered to not raise suspicion."
After they came back, Rean and Roan bid their farewells before leaving the Alchemist Guild.
On the way back, the two talked through their Soul Connection.
'What do you think?'
'Huan accepted the information way too easily.'
'So you also think that way. I thought Huan would laugh it out and not take my claims about Calina to heart.'
Roan nodded.
'I can't help but feel like he was expecting that.'
Rean agreed with him.
'He said that it wasn't anything rare for direct descendants to fake their deaths during the fight for the throne. Still, he took it too lightly.'
'Do you think he already knew about Calina's fake death? If so, then he also knows where she is and what she's doing.'
Roan shook his head in response.
'I don't know. However, there is one thing bothering me.'
Rean knew what he wanted to say.
'The fact that he agreed to at least consider Calina's position even though her father tried a coup not long ago, right?'
Roan nodded.
'In normal circumstances, Huan wouldn't even try to hear you since that coup was a bad stain on Calina's records. Once she tried to ascend to the throne, others would definitely point it out. That and the fact that she has a half-Chrole bloodline would make most people immediately give up.'
Rean sighed after hearing that.
'It is as we thought. There is a lot more behind this event between Vagro and the Emperor.'
Roan agreed with him.
'In any case, we can just wait for the changes to happen to see how we will deal with it. For now, our main objective here in the capital could be said to have been completed. Let's just finish the rest of the arrangements from now on.'
'Alright. Mom and Dad should arrive anytime soon, so let's go back.'
The two then sped up to the teleport formation and went back to the Dalamu Sect's residence in the Inner City.
Sure enough, it was like they were informed. Sometime after they arrived, an enormous flying demon beast appeared above the Dalamu Sect's residence. Normally, such a thing wouldn't be permitted unless the demon beast was at the 7th stage and accompanied by another Saint Realm cultivator. However, it had the crest of the Sasamil Imperial Family, so it was allowed to ignore those rules.
On top of the bird, one could see a few people. Rean and Roan only needed a single glance to identify two of them, their parents in this world.
