Stuart froze as he heard the words from his family member. A flicker of interest crossed his face, followed by a hint of fear. After all, the Reilley family's actions had deeply offended Matthias, and the fact that Matthias had not pursued the matter further was already a stroke of luck.Seeing Stuart's interest, the speaker quickly continued to say, "Leona is part of the Reilley family, and we're blood-related, after all. Besides, considering how far we went before, someone of Matthias' status could've punished us much more severely if he wanted to."The fact that he didn't means he still values Leona's connection to our family. If we apologize sincerely, we might be able to smooth things over with Matthias."The Reilley family members exchanged hopeful glances. They thought it might have been why Matthias had let them off so easily."Grandpa, this could work. The Reilley family is still fairly powerful. If we pledge our loyalty to Matthias, I doubt he'll turn down such a valuable

However, during his investigation of Matthias, Carlile also uncovered some additional information—Matthias had first appeared in St. Merilo, where the Whitney family, who had Leona and Danielle under their care, had treated them terribly. At the same time, the Vaughn family was trying to harvest Danielle's heart.Unexpectedly, the next day after Matthias showed up, the Whitney and Vaughn families were wiped out.Initially, Carlile did not care much about the destruction of minor families like the Whitneys and Vaughns, considering them insignificant beings. However, the Stoermer family in Havenwood had also been mysteriously eliminated after that, with not even a whisper from the Havenwood authorities.Carlile had initially brushed off that information, but he suddenly had a moment of clarity after the event at the Hero's Banquet.A bold theory formed in his mind—what if Matthias had been behind the destruction of those families?After all, the common thread between all three famil

In the grand hall, Pierre's fury stunned the Lowell family members into silence. It had been years since they had seen him so enraged."Dad, please, what happened? You need to calm down. Think of your health," Roland pleaded, his voice tinged with panic.Pierre smashed the tea set on the table, his face dark with anger. "It's Matthias," he snarled. "Tonight was the greatest humiliation in our family history!""Dad, you weren't at the Hero's Banquet," Blake explained. "Matthias is no ordinary person. Mr. Bridges personally vouched for him. He forced all of us to kneel and apologize in front of every major family in Reirmunt!""What?" Roland's face turned from shock to outrage in an instant. "How dare he? That's ridiculous! Forcing the entire Lowell family to kneel and apologize? Who does this Matthias think he is?"The hall erupted into angry shouts and curses. The Lowells were one of the top three families in New Avalbourne. Even the country's leader would not dare to insult them

The room fell silent as understanding dawned. Pierre's earlier question about the Crimson Titans' return suddenly made sense.With them back, the Lowell family would have their own warlords to challenge Matthias."I'll call Fred immediately and tell them to hurry back," Roland said urgently.Just then, a servant rushed into the hall and responded, "Sir Lowell, Mr. Roland, Carlile is outside. He claims to have a way to deal with Matthias!"Pierre frowned. "Carlile? The one whose arms were disabled by Matthias tonight?"Blake scoffed. "Grandpa, he's just a cripple now. The Reilley family is useless to us. We shouldn't bother with him."Despite their humiliation that night, the Lowell family's power remained largely intact. Even at their peak, the Reilley family's existence was negligible to them."No. Let him in. Anyone who can help us against Matthias is our friend, regardless of their status!" Pierre declared, not wanting to miss any chance to deal with Matthias.The night pass

Meanwhile, at The Lair.Matthias received the news of the Reilley family's annihilation with mild surprise. He had already marked them for death, intending to deal with them personally. Yet, someone else had beaten him to it, and it was also done in a brutally efficient manner.Matthias scoffed at the rumors circulating that he was responsible for the Reilley family's demise. It was clear to him that someone had wiped out the Reilleys and was framing him for it.After the events at the Hero's Banquet, with Russell's intervention, the only family still against him was likely the Lowell family. Furthermore, Matthias had vowed to destroy the Lowells within five days, and after last night's humiliation, their desire for his death had only intensified.Even so, his true identity remained a mystery to them.Gazing out the window, Matthias smirked as he pieced together the Lowell family's plan. They had eliminated the Reilleys, framed him, and stirred the anger of Reirmunt's other famili

Russell rushed to The Lair, anxiously awaiting Matthias' summons at the entrance. His face was dark with anger as he thought about how he had carefully nurtured his relationship with Matthias, safeguarding the friendship between the Legion of the Unbreakable and New Avalbourne.Yet, in just one night, the Reilley family had been wiped out, and the city's elite families were collectively denouncing Matthias."Bunch of idiots! Useless fools!" Russell cursed under his breath, his hatred for these families boiling over.He despised the Lowell family, wishing he could lead troops to destroy them."You're already doomed, so why can't you just wait for your end? Wiping out the Reilley family to frame Matthias? Do you think being the top family gives you the right to do whatever you want?" Russell cursed.What riled him even more was how the Lowell family had incited other innocent families against Matthias. Even a blind man could tell they were trying to escalate the situation.The fool
Family First, Revenge Next Chapter 212
Matthias continued to say, causing Russell to tense up again, "However, I plan to toy with the Lowell family for a while. If anyone is foolish enough to help them, I won't hesitate to take them out. Also, I don't want your military officers assisting the Lowells."Russell quickly assured him. "Sir, you have my word. No one from the military will aid the Lowell family. If anyone dares to do so, I'll personally handle the situation. As for other families seeking trouble, feel free to deal with them as you see fit. I'll manage any fallout.""Good. I'd hate for this minor issue to affect our friendship." Matthias nodded with a smile."New Avalbourne and Legion of the Unbreakable will always be on the same front, and we'll always be allies." Russell chuckled, finally feeling relieved.As long as Matthias did not turn against New Avalbourne, he could handle the elimination of the Lowell family or even all three top families if necessary. New Avalbourne would view it as clearing out some

The Lowell family could never have imagined that Russell was aware of their supposedly flawless plan. That revelation highlighted the true nature of New Avalbourne's elite families—while their wealth was impressive, their every move was under the watchful eye of the city's actual power players.Russell left The Lair shortly after their conversation. Half an hour after his departure, half of the families calling for Matthias' head suddenly fell silent. The remaining families began to sense something was amiss and pulled strings to gather information.Those with the most comprehensive networks managed to uncover a single, chilling message—if they did not want their family wiped out, they had to keep their mouth shut.That threat left many family patriarchs pale with fear and seething with anger. They only wanted justice for the Reilleys, yet they were silenced.Where was the fairness in that?Were they supposed to stand by and let Matthias continue his rampage unchecked?However, w
