Dark Magus Returns-Novel

The news had been passed on from the Pagna Academy that Feebie, as well as Royo, were dead. Not only had the head of the Clan, the one that was well-known throughout the land, but also the one that would replace her if anything happened.

It was a bigger hit than most would realize, especially those not part of the Clan. That was because Royo was the main power force.

He was the ace that the other clans didn't know too much about because he was considered even stronger than Feebie.

It was more so due to her connections with the rest of the Elders within the clans that she had obtained her position and her decision-making.

So how did it cto be that the great Lethal Bite Clan was now in this situation, Elder Conner thought, shaking his head.

Elder Conner was an old man with a beard so long that it hit the table that he was sitting at. He had been in the clan longer than most of those that were at the table.

Being a middle-stage warrior, he had lived a long life and was able to witness the growth of strength to the current strength of the clan.

Never did he believe that something like this would occur.

"We have been trying to cup with a solution for weeks now, and yet we have still selected no one to lead us!" One of the Elders spoke up, with anger in his voice.

Right after saying those words, several of the others started to speak up.

Looking around the room, there were many that thought they were deserving of the position. Feebie's uncle Harbour, for one, who was minister of the Current city they were in.

He had been in charge of running things in the city, making sure the clan grew and had a good inflow of cash.

"If you wish to put yourself forward, I will tell you all again, you must have a plan of what needs to be done with the clan!" One of the elders stated. "We can't just have anyone taking over."

"Right now, our power has diminished, with the state that we are in, we can't just select a new leader with no plan."

The Elders like Conner were too old to lead the Clan. They had reached the peak of their strength. They wouldn't grow any stronger, which was why they wanted a brighter future, helping guide the clan with their choices.

That's when Harbour stood up, and the rest went silent as they listened to what he had to say.

"Due to the incident occurring in the academy, it is clear that the other clans are aware of our situation. It is not something that we can hide and try to raise our strength in secret."

"I fear if we do not cup with a solution, that we might even be replaced. More than anything you should know that Murkel from the Erupting Fist Clan is afraid that if the Dark Faction shows their weakness, then the Demonic Faction will attack."

Sin the room broke out in a sweat as they imagined a visit from Murkel himself. It was the last thing that they wanted.

There were times when the Erupting Fist Clan head had acted a bit rash.ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

"Which is why my suggestion is to take in a large number of talented wanderers. We are close to the border of the Demonic Faction, because of that wanderers frequently pass through our city to head over to the other side."

"Many of them are strong; we can't keep underestimating wanderers like we did in the past. We only have to take a look at the Crimson Crane to see that example is true."

"We have enough funds to offer them a lucrative offer compared to what they would regularly get. We shall beca large force with strong warriors."

Swere nodding in agreement at the table at Harbour's idea. He hadn't been left in charge of the city for nothing. He was one that fixed multiple issues when things had occurred.

They thought it was a good plan, and with him being the older brother of Feebie, he wasn't exactly untalented when it cto fighting, it was just when he was compared to Feebie.

"Isn't there a big problem with that?" A slim man said, raising his hand. The man in question was known as Niang; he was in charge as the Head of Clan Unification.

It was a fancy title, but what it meant was he was in charge of all the clans that were directly owned by the Lethal Bite Clan.

Large clans often had sub-branches that were based in other cities. Ones that had claimed loyalty to the larger clans or had a family connection as members left to start up their own Pagna clans.

Still, due to these ties, they were linked to the Lethal Bite Clan who would monitor them. At times, extremely talented individuals from these lesser clans would be scouted and sent to join the Lethal Bite Clan.

Niang was good at his job, as he was known for having a sly tongue. Being able to quell anger and rebellions within the families when times were looking tough.

No one knew how he really did it, but often he would do such things without a massive amount of chaos or deaths.

At times, because of his skill, even when the clan had other problems that needed to be dealt with, they would cto him.

Often even within the clan, many would be fighting for Niang's favor. Because they feared that if they didn't gain his skills, they would be used against them.

However, there was one person Niang was never able to persuade or work with, and that was Royo with his overwhelming strength.

For sreason, he seemed to be loyal to Feebie. And because of it, Niang's influence was more feared on the lower levels, that was until now.

"Each day you have been running recruitment, but at most one or two warriors get added. Yet none of them that have been added have made it into the main clan's power."

"My guess is you wanted results and then when you cto this meeting, we could see how your planning is working out, but it doesn't seem to be the case."

At this point, it felt like Harbour needed to back down because it was true. Although there were talented Wanderers like the Crimson Crane out there, none would join the Lethal Bite Clan.

Especially since they had to work their way up. Harbour recognized himself that it would be a difficult task, since their own members within the clan would be too stubborn to see their strength and try to nurture them to the top.

If anything, the official members of the Lethal Bite Clan might even try to get rid of them if they showed too much talent, but it was the only plan Harbour could cup with.

"Thank you for bringing this to light, Niang," Conner said. "However, Harbour has cup with a solution. What we need now is to work on where solutions can be improved upon."

"We can't just shoot down every option; otherwise, we will be stuck in limbo like we are now. I want solutions, not just for people to shoot down everything that is put on the table."

As if waiting for those words, Niang stood up with a large grin on his face.

"I do have a solution, one I think is the best one for the clan yet." Niang answered.

The displeased elders, as well as the high officials within the clan, were keen to listen once again as they stopped their murmuring.

Maybe now they would see his genius in how he managed to solve several matters before.

"I didn't want to speak of this because before the Vice Head of the Moon Shield Clan was here, but now that he is not present, I will speak freely."

"I suggest we make contact with one of the Divine Realm warriors."

Gasps were heard, and heads spun among each other once they heard this.

"If we summon a Divine being down to the clan to aid us, that will give us the strength that we need and will put us back on equal footing with the others."
