Ancient Tears BloodLine

Red Stone City,

The City Lord has received confirmation from his manager Walter that the head of the Frazier clan agreed to his request. Hearing that, a wide smile blossomed on his face. Though their earlier meeting went well.

He worried that the head of the Frazier clan will change his mind. That's why he asked his manager to make sure again. Now that he was sure, his worries disappeared instantly.

Some time ago, he received a reply from the headmaster wells that their students already departed from the city.

They will arrive in Red Stone City rather soon. He doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to make sure because of this message also.

Now he doesn't think that Frazier Clan's head will cause problems. When those five students from crimson hall arrive here, he will ask Frazier Clan's head to come.

He thought about introducing them to each other in this City Lord's Mansion Hall. When it comes to the headmaster wells, he never expected him to send his students right away.

He sighed inwardly. Now that he is going to support crimson hall. He needs to make sure about the protection of those students. No one should have any complaints under his watch.

Then he suddenly thought about Hansen Institute. Next second, he ordered the manager Walter to come to the hall. He feels something strange because he has received no news about the Hansen Institute today.

After a few minutes, manager Walter entered the hall.

Seeing that, he immediately inquired about the Hansen Institute.

"Is there any news about them?" The City Lord Alex Fuller asked.

Manager Walter immediately understand. These days the Hansen Institute is being watched by the City Lord Mansion. So he wasn't surprised by the question.

"Lord, I asked our men. But there are no suspicious activities were found," The manager Walter replied.

Manager Walter knows that Lord doesn't want anyone to know about their intention against Hansen Institute. Even this matter is carefully handled inside City Lord Mansion and not many people here know about this.

Alex Fuller frowns because he knows if they are getting no information then there is something wrong with it.

He asked, "What about their chairman Thornton?" When he said those words, his expression turned dark. So far he hasn't received a single reply from that person.

As a City Lord on duty, he feels humiliation and disrespect from Thornton's action. There is not even a response for courtesy's sake.

Shaking his head, he looked at Walter for an answer.

Manager Walter was silent for a moment. He hesitated whether to tell the news to the lord. Because the news wasn't credible enough.

Then he felt that the lord was staring at him.

He sighed inwardly and decided to tell the information he had gotten from the source.

"Lord, Strangely the whereabouts of the chairman is unknown," Walter said.

After saying that he further added, "No one has seen him leaving the Hansen Institute."

"Hmm," Alex Fuller raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked.

Alex Fuller felt that the information is not true. They might have missed him. He feels a little irritated by now.

As a City lord of this city, he was supposed to be aware of everything happening inside the city. But he wasn't able to get a single piece of information about this small institute.

Manager Walter didn't get falter as he was expecting this reaction from the lord. Because the information is not credible from the very beginning.

"Lord, I'm not sure but this is what our spies told," Walter replied.

The next second, "Harumph," Alex Fuller snorted coldly. He wanted to know what is going on there before the crimson hall students arrives here.

"Okay, just leave this matter," Alex Fuller said.

He is carefully thinking of a way to get information. The Hansen Institute is a little trickier. He heard about past events that have occurred there.

Right now, the Hansen Institute is under the control of one person. He happened to be the chairman of Thornton.

"Walter, can we contact anyone from their management?" Alex Fuller asked.

He feels that if they are working on the event, then there is a possibility for discussion. He believes that if he can contact an elder from Hansen Institute, he will learn about inside events.

A quick glint flashes into his eyes.

Manager Walter felt this was doable. He doesn't know about the chairman. But he feels others will respect the lord's words.

He replied, "Lord, what instructions do you have?"

Hearing that, Alex Fuller revealed a smile on his face. His eyebrows eases down as he thought about some solution.

He looked at Walter and instructed him to contact an elder from Hansen Institue and asked another party to come here and meet him in person.

Alex Fuller didn't explain anything further.

Manager Walter walked out of the hall after getting his orders. Seeing his disappearing back, Alex muttered to himself, "I don't think others will be as arrogant as Thornton."

If he can find an inside man, then it will be helpful for his plan. He can collect information whenever he wants and also it will be helpful for crimson hall students.

They can learn the rules about the competition before others. Finally, all his worries are swept away as this plan seems more viable than contacting Thornton.

Then he walked back to his room.

Outside,

After arriving at his office, manager Walter began to look for information. Manager Walter then started to go through the information they have.

He quickly came to know about a person named Arthur. Walter realised that Arthur is most likely an important figure in management.

Because as per their information, apart from teaching others does more management work. So he believes that Arthur might know a lot about their competition.

After making sure about the information, he contacts him right away.

Hansen Institute,

Arthur was doing his work as usual. Ever since Elder Thornton left with Zack. He handed his share of work to Arthur.

Inside his cabin, Arthur is taking note of his upcoming schedule. The schedule was hectic and there is no free day available in the current week.

Seeing that, he cursed at himself, "I should have stayed away from this management work."

The image of Elder Thornton comes to his mind.

SIGH

He sighed inwardly. "I don't know what they are up to now?"

Beep!

When he was lamenting over, he received a sudden call from an unknown number.

Seeing that, he raised his eyebrows in confusion but he attended the call.

"Hello, this is Arthur from Hansen Institute," Arthur said.

"Mr Arthur, I'm Manager Walter calling from the City Lord Mansion," a voice sounded from another end of the call.

Hearing that, Arthur was startled. Walter? He had heard about this person before. Manager Walter is an experienced one. He doesn't know how long he has been serving there.

After taking some moments of silence, "Mr Walter, how may I help you?"

"Are you free right now?" Mr Walter asked.

"Free?"

Arthur was confused. But again he recalled his conversation with Elder Thornton. Elder Thornton revealed that he didn't pick up the call of the City Lord.

He had black lines on his forehead realising that. Is this backlash? He began to worry.

"Arthur?" Mr Walter said.

"Mr Walter, what is this all about?"

"If you need something right now, you can tell me," Arthur replied.

"City Lord wants to meet you right now," Walter said.

Hearing that, Arthur felt lightning struck on his mind. He thought this is some kind of back clash. He already thought about mentioning Elder Thornton's name.

But the city lord wants to meet me instead. Arthur doesn't know how to react properly. He felt the City Lord want to see himself because of Elder Thornton.

If he doesn't agree, it will offend the city lord.

"Mr Walter, I'm leaving right now," Arthur said.

Hearing that, Manager Walter replied, "Good" both ended their conversation after that.

Arthur wants to save Elder Thornton. If the city lord wanted to inquire about Elder Thornton, he decided to tell him a lie.

But before doing that, he wanted to DM elder Thornton about it. Then he texted Elder Thornton regarding their conversation.

Instead of calling, he usually texts him. It had become a habit of his. But right now he feels something different. He decided to call him.

The next second, the ring went for a couple of seconds. But there is no response from Elder Thornton.

Seeing that, he sighed inwardly. He wasn't surprised by this. He just tried to make sure he was available. Then he began to postpone his current schedule.

After arranging the work schedule, he got up from the seat and walked out of the cabin.

Ten minutes later,

He reached the city lord's mansion. After informing the city guard about his meeting, the city guard confirms the same with Manager Walter.

They let him in after verifying the information.

Mr Arthur then walked into the huge mansion. He was quite eager to meet the manager Walter. He hopes that the meeting goes well.
