“Mr. Oscar, it’s terrible, truly terrible. Mr. Vilhelm took some men to control those intruders, but they ended up being captured. All four of our array masters were also killed.”
Oscar was in his room, preparing to sleep, when suddenly he heard someone reporting. Upon hearing this, his brows furrowed, and he quickly rose to his feet.
“What’s going on? Wasn’t Jennifer’s room surrounded by an arcane array? How did those people manage to escape?”
Oscar asked in surprise!
“That Jared, he turns out to be a master of arcane arrays. We thought the arcane array was invincible, but he broke through it effortlessly. Moreover, there was the Fox Queen, who had reached the Seventh level of Tribulator. Neither Mr. Vilhelm nor the four array masters were a match for her. Right now, Jennifer is heading this way with those few people. What should we do?” the subordinate asked in a somewhat panicked tone.
“Don’t panic. The situation is already under control. Even if they try, they won’t be able to change anything. I am now entrusting you with the Summers family’s token. You must immediately head to Henningsen City and deliver this item to Ilias. Tell him that the Summers family has agreed to join the Demon Seal Alliance as a branch. Furthermore, have him bring someone to visit the Summers family personally. Inform him that our Summers family’s resources are willing to be shared with the Henningsen family!”
Oscar took out an item pouch and handed it to his subordinate, instructing him carefully. His subordinate glanced over, then promptly nodded, quickly making his exit.
After his subordinates had left, Oscar was not idle. Instead, he took out a small porcelain bottle from the head of the bed and poured out some red powder.
Using this red powder, he drew a charm directly on the yellow paper.
After finishing the drawing, Oscar tucked the charm into his pocket and then left the room. He addressed a member of the Summers family, “Gather all the Summers family members in the main hall for a meeting…”
“Mr. Oscar, has something serious happened? Why have you gathered everyone so late?” the member of the Summers family asked with some confusion.
“Why all the unnecessary chatter? If I tell you to go, just go…”
With a furrowed brow, Oscar glared and bellowed.
The member of the Summers family was so frightened that he nodded repeatedly, not daring to delay even a bit. He gathered all the Summers family members in the grand hall.
Oscar was seated at the head of the table, silently waiting without uttering a word. He was waiting for Jennifer to bring Jared and the others to him.
“What’s going on today? They have gathered us together in the middle of the night.”
“Mr. Tyler has been in seclusion for a few days, and Mr. Oscar seems rather mysterious.”
“Something significant must have happened. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have summoned us all in the middle of the night.”
The members of the Summers family were all whispering among themselves, uncertain of what was about to happen.
Regarding the misfortune that befell the Summers family, many were unaware. Only a select few at the top knew that Tyler, Jennifer, and Jacques were imprisoned. The rest of the Summers family members thought they were in seclusion.
After all, it was impossible for Oscar to let everyone in the Summers family know about such a matter. If mishandled, it could potentially throw the Summers family into chaos!
The imprisonment of Tyler and others was carried out in secret, outwardly proclaimed as seclusion.
On the other side, Jennifer led Jared and the others to Oscar’s chambers, only to find that Oscar was not there. Upon inquiry, they found out that Oscar had summoned all the Summers family members to the grand hall.
Jennifer felt that this was a golden opportunity to expose Oscar’s true face in front of the many members of the Summers family. So, she hurriedly led Jared and the others to the main hall.
Upon seeing Jennifer arrive with Jared, Oscar appeared remarkably composed.
“Jennifer, this is a private matter within the Summers family. Why have you brought someone from outside here?”
Oscar was the first to question, directing his inquiry towards Jennifer.
Upon realizing that Jennifer had indeed brought a stranger into the grand hall of the Summers family, the other family members were quick to express their disapproval.
“Ms. Jennifer, this grand hall belongs to the Summers family, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. How could you behave in such a way?”
“Indeed, if Mr. Tyler were to find out, you would undoubtedly face consequences.”
“Please ask them to leave promptly. This is not a place for outsiders to stay.”
The members of the Summers family insisted that Jared and the other outsiders depart.
