Chapter 351: Lulu’s grandpa? (2/2)
The voices which were arguing stopped as if to respect the authority of this voice.
Wu Yan thought about the situation. The Council is made out of the Baruba empire, the Ailu empire, and the Feia empire, along with all the strongest 3 families of each empire.
If that is the case, the 3 largest light pillars would represent the 3 emperors, the deans of Silvaria World Inst.i.tute.
The voices from before probably belonged to the families that are under the emperor of that empire.
The question is: Which empire?
“Well, let me ask another question. Is your comrade truly an angel?”
Wu Yan sighed with a helpless tone.
“Yes, but would you believe it?”
The figure turned reticent. It then adopted an unfriendly tone.
“That is to say, even after we invited you here, you are not going to give us the answers we want…”
Wu Yan sn.i.g.g.e.red. He didn’t care that the figure in front of him is one of the emperors. He had never met an emperor before so he wouldn’t know how to properly act in the presence of an emperor.
Wu Yan hesitated before he asked something.
“Deans, did you really invite me here just to ask me these 2 questions?”
The figure guffawed.
“You think our actions are superfluous? Ignoring you first, one of your comrades fought Sylph without losing an inch of ground, the other managed to stop the resulting explosion due to energy reactions between Sylph and the fighter. Quite clearly, those 2 are at tier 8!”
“Tier 8 strength isn’t the thing that surprised me the most. What came as a great astonishment to me, to us, is that those girls look no more than 20 years of age!”
“Tell me, boy. Two ladies who are younger than 20 years old but possess tier 8 strength, is that not something we should cast projections to ask about?”
Wu Yan smiled in an awkward manner.
Mikoto isn’t 20 years old yet, she’s not even 15. Ikaros, on the other hand, had lived for millennia and is probably older than all of you fogeys combined.
The figure which helped Wu Yan spoke out.
“I am different, I am more interested in you than the ladies with you.”
“Me?”
Wu Yan seemed puzzled.
Wait, am I more attractive than the other girls?
The figure’s next sentence caused Wu Yan to tense up as his jaw dropped.
“More accurately speaking, I am intrigued with Little Lilu’s only friend of the opposite gender.”
“Lulu?”
Wu Yan’s mouth grew wider. He let slip his thought.
“Could it be that you’re Lulu’s grandpa?”
“Oh, judging by how you refer to her as Lulu, I am guessing the relations.h.i.+p between you two are quite close!”
And then the figure guffawed like n.o.body’s business.
Wu Yan is 100% sure that this figure belonged to Lulu’s grandfather. No wonder he helped him, he did it out of consideration for Lulu.
The figure at the centermost light pillar spoke out.
“Young man, since you aren’t too willing to give us the answers we want, we won’t force it out of you. I am quite confident in my ability to discern individuals. You do not appear to be someone who bore evil intentions. For the moment, you have our trust. But, I do wish you will be forthright with your ident.i.ty one day…”
