Chapter 126: Playing both sides (1/2)
When Rudra asked Amelia to bring in the chalice.He also instructed her to send two guild members to the church of light and meet Cardinal Lee .
Rudra gave a message for Cardinal Lee that he was currently stalling members of the same faction as the blood merchant in his guild hall , and that he should instantly provide reinforcement.
Cardinal Lee had worked with Rudra before , bestowing on him the title of Emmisary of Church , hence his word carried weight as he instantly deployed the church's paladins as well as came himself to the guild headquarters to detain those in question.
When Megan and Gary went out of the guild hall with the chalice in hand , they were naturally shocked to see a platoon of paladins standing. Their natural fear took the better of them as they reacted in a way only guilty people would.
Being detained and dragged away to the church for questioning , they were naturally spewing insults at Rudra for framing them.
However when they had time to calm down , they realized that the church had nothing on them , should they deny being part of any organisation and behave wrongly framed , sooner or later the Church would have to let them go.
The cardinal was not yet informed about the importance of the chalice by Rudra , and naturally all inspections failed on the artifact , the case about detaining them was growing weak , and Cardinal Lee summoned Rudra to the Church for answers.

Assistant Micheal read a report to Mithun Ambani ”Sir , Your twin children have been spotted in the upside under Ethan Grey' s fold , they are alive and well , they will turn 21 in 2 days time and you will legally loose 18% stake of the company. They have been rumored to be in talks with Ethan Grey himself , and over the past 16 hours Ethan Grey has started to purchase the company stock at a 300% premium , spending close to 300 billion dollars aquiring 2% stake of the company , as it sits sir , should he transfer one percent to the twins each , the company according to the bylawls shall have two more board members , along with your son who owns 10% and you who own 50% of the company”.
Mithun Ambani had a deep frown on his face , one of his biggest fears is close to becoming a reality , yet he had a bigger problem at hand.
Mithun Ambani's legal son and heir to his conglomerate , Amir Ambani had been depressed over the last week.
Amir had owned 28% stake in the company. However he would only own 10% when his siblings turned 21! , His net worth was reduced by nearly 70% and it was unacceptable to him.
Refusing to eat or get out of his room , he was just popping pills and sleeping with prostitutes.
Mithun Ambani never seeing his son in such a pitiful state was deeply concerned , on one side he wanted to alleviate his sons pain, however on the other side hw was not ready to give up his own shares to his son to console him .
Mithun Ambani's hatred for the twins and Ethan Grey deepened even further , as he promised revenge.
Ambani said ” Pour money into Omega , strengthen the main guild , and also pour a bucket load in that alliance group. Bring the fight in game to Ethans and the twins darling guild True Elites, they are messing with my company , and although i cannot touch them in Country J 's upside , Omega is a different ballpark , I will destroy everything they loves there ”.
Secretary micheal nodded , but his eyes widened at the figure his boss decided to pour into the alliance. The number was huge!
A dangerous development had occured for the Elites .
