87 Discord (1/2)

Kanae looked towards the newspaper store in front of her as she yawned. After the fight on the school yesterday, the newspapers were filled with the news about the Souhon Clan. Ever since their current Clan Head got sick, the acting clan head kept on making trouble for them.

The school was closed down again. Many students stayed at their home and watched television to stay updated with the news. As for Kanae, she had to stay in this small café near her house to be able to see the news. Well, not that she wanted to, but she didn't have television, so this was the best place.

”Souhon Clan is starting a war, right?”

”I hear that there's internal discord and some battle outside. They're making the people feel unrest.”

”Not only that, I hear that the direct lineage of Souhon Clan is fighting with each other.”

Kanae listened as the people around her gossiping. She was not sure about their condition, but she knew that the Souhon Clan had started a war against another clan. Based on her knowledge about the clans, they would suffer if they start a war recklessly like what the Souhon Clan did.

Taking a sip of her coffee, her eyes didn't leave the television as she watched how the fight was still going on. Previously, the attacks were negligible as they were only making trouble with newly made gangs. But now, it was hard to say what would happen as the acting clan head had offended someone from another clan.

'It's annoying to get involved if things are this messy. If they don't settle the internal trouble first, they're in for a big problem.'

Kanae looked towards the television as she rubbed her two hands. The temperature has started to go down lately as it was nearing winter. Ah… how she wished she has a television at home so she didn't have to come here to watch.

Souhon Clan Headquarters

Due to the wound caused by Roy, Jay had to rest on his bed. With the advance medicine they had, his wounds already relatively got better.

However, Jay could hear the sound of fighting outside his room, which made him woke up instantly. The sound made sleepiness left him and he was wide awake. People fought in their territory? This was a huge humiliation, but his condition didn't allow him to move around as his body was still hurt very much.

He forced himself into a sitting position as he listened to the sound outside the room. The door suddenly opened and Vero came in with body full of wounds.

”Young Master, you need to hide right now.”

”Who attacks us, Vero?” Jay asked with a sharp tone.

Vero was startled at Jay's tone, but he immediately calmed himself down. ”its Zone Clan. They are coming back here as they use their member to sneak attack towards our clan.”

Zone Clan… Jay still remembered the student from Zone Clan in their school that his brother fought just the other day. He thought that the fight would end after yesterday clash. Who would have thought that they would come here and seek revenge?

Jay gritted his teeth. Previously, no matter how bad the trade their clan failed with those newly made gangs, they wouldn't be able to threaten them. Now that the one who attacked them was one of the five biggest clans, things would get messier.

If he knew this would happen, he should have stopped his brother advance before that person from Zone Clan got hurt. Now, everything was too late.

”Where are the elites of Souhon Clan?”

Vero has an expression full of pain as he bowed down. ”Young Master, most of them are wounded hard because of yesterday's fight and the rests are busy to protect our Clan Head.”

Jay gritted his teeth. The situation was even worse than what he expected. He immediately took out his phone and called a number.

”Hello, I need your help right now!”

His brother must be alright because he was in good condition, but Jay was nearly half death. He would not be able to move around too much and Vero wouldn't be able to protect the two of them.

After he made the call, dozens of men were coming inside the room. Vero immediately stood up and blocked their advance. Using his long sword, he pushed them back and did all he could to protect the Young Master behind him.

Jay also prepared the short sword he had. He always brought this short sword as it was already a part of him. Yet, his body was hard to move. When they came towards him, he moved his body sideways and attacked from below. Because of his unsteady step, his shoulder was scraped.

”Young Master!” Vero was startled.

”You should watch your opponent!” the man in front of him raised his sword with the intention to fight.
