Supreme Origin: Time King

Chapter 82: XV Meeting

One month after the attack they received from the Kingdom of Briles, the whole Thunder Hammer kingdom was in chaos, with a loss of the entire western region. news about one of the three main families in the kingdom, the Midas Family was holding a sudden meeting with all the noble families in the midst of the war quickly spread like the wind across the kingdom.

While the majority of the population was happy with the news, what the nobles were feeling now was the opposite.

Inside the Branches Manor localized in Thunder Hammer Royal City. Catherine opened the door and entered one of the rooms where Elijah's father, Henry was reading and signing dozens of documents while his eyes showed anxiety.

However, he immediately frowned and glanced at the surroundings, before turning his gaze over to Catherine and said: "It seems that the Midas Family is planning something."

"I agree. Otherwise, why would they spend so much effort to call every noble family and even the king for a meeting in the middle of a war?" Catherine walked to his side and said while massaging his back: "Although the Midas Family as the second most powerful noble family, they possess the right to call even the king for a meeting, they never did it before so why would they do it now?"

"Have you heard of the name, Solmon Midas?" Henry continued: "My father told me that about 40 years ago there was a rumor about him from the time he was the head of the Midas Family, saying that he had a child with a female from the Blaze Family in the Kingdom of Briles, of course no one could confirm this rumor, but now I'm starting to think it might be true."

"Are you sure?"

Catherine's heart jumped as she spoke hastily: "Solmon Midas is the former Patriarch of the Midas Family head and the strongest person within the entire kingdom forty years ago. At that time, he was already at half-step Spirit Link Realm. However, he seemed to have disappeared 19 years ago when he gave his position to his son. If he is alive and he is planing to control the kingdom, there is no way we could resist."

Henry looked straight into her eyes and said, "I do not know either, but I hope it's wrong."

Henry frowned as uneasiness filled his heart. Solmon was the strongest person in the kingdom at that time and his strength was a step away from the Spirit Link Realm, but he suddenly abandoned his position and disappeared just before he reached the sixth realm. Rumors spread later about how something went wrong with his cultivation and that he had died soon after.

"Let's go, we have twenty minutes until the meeting begin." As dozens of thoughts rapidly filled his mind, and he didn't realized the expression he was making. He get up from the chair and walked with Catherine to meet with father and brother before the go to the meeting that was going to be hold in the main temple localized on the highest point of the city.

Seeing Henry walking away, Catherine put her hands behind her back and did not dare say anything else as she followed his back.

When they entered the temple, there was a tension in the air. Cathrine saw her father-in-law looking over towards her.

The latter's eyes were quite serious. Under this seriousness, there was even a hint of uneasiness that it seemed he did not want her and her husband to be there. Henry was surprised to see his father expression because it had been many years since he saw his father reveal such an expression.

It seemed that his father had the same thought as well.

Inside the temple, the area was extremely spacious. Many important and noble figures were walking around while talking about why they were called.

At the same time, the heads of the noble families had already arrived and talked among themselves as they sat in their seats. However, even with everyone talking and laughing, it was clear that all this was artificial and everyone seemed to be worrying about the same thing.

Henry sat down in his seat and glanced at the opposite side. At that location, there was a beautiful woman wearing a red dress with a smile that attracted numerous gazes as she hold the hand of a embarrassed middle-aged man. Henry recognized them and smirked.

Making a hand gesture, he caught the attention middle-aged man that made the same smirk while looking at him.

This middle-aged man was Theodore Miller and the woman was Violet Reyes and beside them was their daughter, Layla Miller, who had returned a few months ago.

He was surprised how he would never have expected her to follow her parents to this place. Looking closely, he realized that after a few years, she is now a twenty-year-old woman and seems to have grown up with facial features and disposition similar to that of her mother.

He thought she would be a good match for his son, but then he remembered the girl he saw with his son when he came back a year ago. He began to wonder what he should do if this girl still wanted to marry his son.

Inside the temple, all the heads of noble families and the king had arrived. Besides them, some external forces known in the region had also arrived.

Then sounds of footsteps came from all over the temple. In that place, several figures came out from all sides. At the same time, laughter echoed from the man standing in the middle of the temple.

He was the current Patriarch of the Midas family, Davon Midas.

"Haha, I would like to thank you all for coming to see my family's glory day. I really feel extremely honored by your presence!" Then another voice came from behind him as a man like Davon appeared beside him.

"But now, this entire kingdom belongs to the Midas family and the Cosmos Organization. All who resist will be killed."
