Chapter 108: Chaos (1/2)

The sun has finally risen over the sky to signal the end of the night and shine over the Warm City.

A lot of time has passed ever since Lucifer finished preparing the official document made by the Patriarch branded with the official seal of the Warmester Denoble House.

Of course, just because they have something like this doesn't really mean that all of the vassals and subordinates of the Warmester Denoble House would just go and obey it.

They would question the official document since it was just too shady, to begin with.

The 6 pillars and the Patriarch himself going missing suddenly and then a random subordinate suddenly comes with an official document saying that he is now the Patriarch is already suspicious.

There were a lot more people who are suitable to become the temporary Patriarch while the Patriarch is away. Those people are, naturally, the sons of Kars, and Kars himself is supposed to be the next Patriarch if only it weren't for his lack of strength.

Since Kars is currently not in the Warm City, it is only natural that his oldest son would take command of the Warmester Denoble House in his absence.

However, the fact that they...are also not here and together with the  Patriarch is a lot more suspicious than the official document.

There is no absolute way that all of the Warmester Family and the 6  pillars would just go missing all at the same time. It's not like they are being attacked by a powerful enemy or anything of the sort, so they didn't have to go hiding or do anything like that at all.

Of course, Rouge would say that the Warmester Family, together with the 6 pillars, are just having a vacation somewhere else.

But even if he told them that, things are just too suspicious to believe all the words written on the official document and what Rouge would say.

This is basically an event that only happened for the first time, and those with sharp wits would be able to catch on with what is happening and suspect things as they are.

And that is exactly what is happening right now.

In the main building, the one building where the Patriarch and the Wramester Family sleeps, chaos has occurred all over the place.

There were many people who were seeking entrance to this main building, which is a rare sight indeed as people wouldn't even dare to disturb this building as this is the building where the Patriarch resides.

However, it is because it has been announced for all to hear that the Patriarch is on a vacation that these people were storming this building in.

But...even if the Patriarch is not here, they wouldn't still dare to do that.

The only reason why they were storming this main building is because...other than the fact that it has been announced that the Patriarch and his immediate family members are on a vacation, a random, lousy captain has become the temporary Patriarch of the Warmester Denoble House while the Patriarch himself is away.

This made all kinds of subordinates storm in the main building, hoping to see the temporary Patriarch.

No...it would be better to say that they are here to demand an explanation.

It was only natural that this would be the outcome of Rouge becoming the temporary Patriarch. It would have gone a different way if it were one of Kars' sons who became the temporary Patriarch.

Anyway, among these people who were storming in, there were some who could be considered to be the top brass of the Warmester Denoble House.

They are the ones who control things here, and they could be considered to be just below the Patriarch and the 6 pillars when it comes to hierarchy.

And these people are...the Court of the Warmester Denoble House.

8 old demons control the Court of the Warmester Denoble House, and these 8 demons have come to the Patriarch room, where Rouge could be located.

There were also other demons in here who could be considered to be pretty high in the hierarchy ladder of the Warmester Denoble House.

But Rouge...who was sitting on the throne of the Patriarch gave no attention to them as he just entertained the questions of the 8 old demons of the Court of the Warmester Denoble House.

And while they were asking Rouge all kinds of questions about the Patriarch and why he was given the seat of the temporary Patriarch, the faces of the 8 old demons turned grim as they realized that there were no flaws or whatsoever in Rouge's story.

It means that Rouge's story was accurate and that even the things that should be overlooked, if ever this was a narrated story told by someone, are well explained and the details are just right on the spot when it comes to the quirks of the Patriarch.

As they were the members compromising the Court of the Warmester Denoble House, they are well aware of what the Patriarch is like and what he uses to base his decisions.
