Chapter 669: "Little Tricks"
Chapter 669: “Little Tricks”
“You can’t go! The journey to the mausoleum will take around a day, and the second round will start the day after tomorrow! There’s not enough time!”
It was as if there was a thunder striking Ainsley’s mind.
Well…that’s true. The journey to the mausoleum takes too much time, and it wasn’t as if the Godfather couldn’t return on his own.
However, Ainsley was afraid that those exorcists were still around when they heard that the Godfather was still alive.
She’s sure that since those exorcists didn’t see the Godfather disappearing with their own eyes, they would continue to monitor the mausoleum and its surroundings.
The moment they could come into contact with the Godfather, they would then attack him again.
After all, while the Godfather recuperated, they couldn’t enter the mausoleum that easily.
Even if they pretended to be visitors, there were many shamans and spirits around the Godfather’s resting place at the centre of the mausoleum.
It was hard to make a move!
Plus, the Godfather was protected by a barrier, and the security around his ghostly body was so good that the exorcists could do nothing but look at the Godfather.
Well, actually, the exorcists didn’t know that the Godfather was still alive. They thought that the Godfather’s wound was too severe and, sooner or later, he would die.
Who would have thought that Axelle was here and thus, saving the Godfather with his potions?
Not to mention that the mausoleum was like the Godfather’s personal hospital, helping him to recover in just a few months.
The exorcists didn’t know that the Godfather was still alive, but Ainsley thought that they knew.
Just to be careful, she absolutely didn’t want to let the Godfather go to the mansion alone.
After all, if the Godfather went alone, he couldn’t fight against the exorcists, but if Ainsley was there, he could possess her body and protect both of them!
This time, since both of them were alert, the exorcists wouldn’t be able to force the Godfather out of Ainsley’s body.
Before that happened, both of them would have attacked the exorcists.
Thinking like this, Ainsley puffed her cheeks and looked at Grandpa Yofan with her mouth slanted down.
“Grandpa, we can arrive faster using the flying carriage…at most, only a few hours…”
The mausoleum was in another region and to cross a region using an air vehicle, usually only required an hour or two.
Fortunately, the region where the mausoleum was located was really not far from the Roane Region.
There are no other regions to cross, and after crossing the Roane Region’s north border, they would arrive at the mausoleum’s region.
“Just a few hours to go to the mausoleum and another few hours to come back…I won’t be late to the tournament okay, okay?” Ainsley pleaded once more.
She knew that Grandpa Yofan was afraid of her not coming back in time and greatly affecting their family’s performance.
After all, the Naran Family should have departed from their mansion and arrived right when the tournament’s second round started.
The mafia council obviously didn’t make things hard for the assault team and allowed them to move before the tournament started.
However, they couldn’t attack the defender team before the second round started at midnight, the moment the day just changed.
On the other hand, the defender team couldn’t ambush the assault team on their way to the defender’s mansion.
But it didn’t mean they couldn’t use other tricks as long as they were not getting help from other forces and weren’t discovered.
For example, another defender team already set up many traps on the path that the assault team would take.
This defender team was blessed with a fixed path that one had to take to reach their mansion.
With such natural geographical advantage, the defender made things difficult for the assault team.
They constantly harassed them in the dark and blamed it on the ‘disadvantageous terrain’.
Naturally, Ainsley’s team was also the same.
They were sure that the Naran Family had to pass through several forests to reach the mansion, and that’s why they started to harass the Naran Family’s land troops.
They lured wild beasts and monsters to attack the Naran Family’s land troops, blaming the family’s bad luck to ‘provoke’ beasts and monsters.
The Naran Family could do nothing and couldn’t even complain to the mafia council because they had no proof of how the Sloan Family managed to lure the beasts and monsters into attacking the Naran Family.
Everything was slightly better for the Sloan Family now, but Grandpa Yofan still wanted Ainsley to stay and supervise the upcoming war by herself.
The old man furrowed his eyebrows and shook his head.
“Even if you use your flying carriage, I won’t let you go.”
Grandpa Yofan took a deep breath before speaking in a lower tone of voice.
“Don’t you know that your carriage is eye-catching? What if the Naran Family’s air force saw your carriage leaving the mansion?”
The Naran’s air force had already arrived earlier than the land troops and was now silently monitoring the Sloan Family’s movement.
If Ainsley went out of the mansion with her carriage, wouldn’t the Naran Family know that she’s going somewhere else?
This would be beneficial for them! Even if they wouldn’t attack Ainsley or whatsoever, they would feel more confident and would take their time harassing the Sloan Family who lost their leader.
In this kind of war, the boss’ presence is so strong and essential that once the leader is out, the whole family might go down with them.
The mafia council didn’t say that they shouldn’t kill the other party’s family head. If they could, then go on.
Kill the family head, and game over!
