Chapter 153: Figuring out plans!!!
Finally, they were all gathered. Sasha decided to reach the Opera House, excited to watch a play there together with Xavier and Serena, hoping that she would be able to make them interested in these pastimes.
...
Sasha liked these plays, and always decided to visit these places, watching more, sometimes together with her friends, sometimes with men who seemed to be interested in her.
"Ohh.. good place!! I didn't know that a place like this even existed." Serena exclaimed, genuinely liking the vibe of the place.
Sasha looked happy with Serena's reaction. The play started, and all three of them began immersed.
'Did she not call him? He received a letter from her name!' Xavier thought all of a sudden. He was watching the play, and it was not boring at the very least, making him enjoy the play.
But suddenly, his brain had a thought, a really out of place thought. He recalled that Rae recieved letter from Serena.
'If she plans to stay outside while he is at home then who called Rae?' Xavier thought, beginning to think that he was onto a big plan.
'Her husband? The one man who the servants still refer to as the Earl, Scheta!' Suddenly, his brain recalled the gossip that he was dismissing. Serena had said that even the servants of the house referred to Scheta as Earl.
If that was the case, then there was a chance that Scheta had sent a message to Rae, hoping to call that guy at a location.
'But then why? Revenge?' Xavier thought, instantly recalling that Rae had very humiliatingly rejected the proposal from Arista's.

Though it felt pretty bad to admit, but he knew that the Arista family was quite ahead of his Kerr family. A humiliation like that would not be treated by them in a light manner.
Because unlike his Kerr family, Arista family had sent a level four warrior. The powerhouses which were less than a dozen, even counting the whole kingdom's forces.
'If my family agreed and supports the assassination of a prodigy then why would they, the Arista family, do the same after their humiliation??' Xavier concluded, thinking further on this point.
'Wait!!! That means my artifact... Is going to be wasted while Scheta battles against that guy.' Xavier realised in shock, he had painstakingly waited at that guy's door, roam around the dorms like a psycho, and finally used a very precious artifact to implant a curse on Rae.
If Scheta was really going as far as killing Rae, then his very hard efforts would be wasted, he would not even get the credits from the family.
And that insidious uncle of his, Elder Qino, that guy would once again try to put the blame on Xavier for this unsuccessful mission.
Most important of all, he would loose a huge amount of credits, which he could have gotten after assisting Elder Qino. Though, the amount would only be a fraction of what Elder Qino would be getting.
'Isn't this the perfect chance?? I get to have the credits for Rae's assassination, and the killing is done by Scheta.' Xavier thought, his blood began pumping into his heart intensely, his emotions surged imagining the scenario.
'Since Scheta won't openly admit of his assassination, then I would be safe to claim that I accomplished it in my family, successfully getting the contribution points from the family head.' Xavier thought.
A family like Arista would not openly admit that they have killed a level four prodigy of there kingdom just because they could not get him to their side.
This world not only cause chaos in the civilians, but it would also cause many nobles to become aggressive towards the Arista family. A warrior that Arista's could not recruit, would undoubtedly contribute to the strength of Arista's opponents.
So even if Scheta were to kill Rae, it would not be publicly announced, creating a big chance for Xavier to claim the credits. If Arista family would not dare announce this, then Kerr family would also refrain from doing so.
Xavier would be safely able to claim all the contribution points, much more than the amount given by Elder Qino.
"Sasha.. I suddenly remember that I have to visit a place. I would make it up to you next time. Promise!!" Xavier instantly made a excuse, unwilling to stay any longer.
"That boy.... Hahh" Sasha sighed, seeing Xavier leaving.
"Do not fret! Young men are all like that. They would not appreciate the charm of opera with us old people." Serena said to Sasha, thinking that Sasha must have been hurt seeing Xavier leave, and tried to reason it.
'Though that guy is different.' Serena thought to herself, recalling the image of a handsome young man with white hair.
"It's good that he left. I didn't want my friend's son to visit the place we are going to visit." Sasha side with a sly smirk, smiling like a perverted but sultry woman.
'The rumoured opera art? The place where noble woman go and watch... Woman indulge in carnal pleasure. Those kind of plays..' Serena thought, instantly recalling the explanation Sasha had given her to tempt Serena into coming here.
Honestly, she herself was tempted to visit that place. Something in her had awakened after the time with Rae. She could not be satiated anymore.
'Hurry!! I need to hurry!!' Xavier thought, already out of the Opera House rushing to the location.
He knew that this was the time of importance. A delay of a few minutes and he would not be able to get the benefits. He knew of the spots where this incident could take place.
"You? Ohh!! I get it now. You were the one who orchestrated all this." Rae said to the figure of confident and strong man in front of him.
Rae had thought that the letter looked suspicious, but he was intrigued by it, causing him to follow up with it.
Seeing that the man who had planned all this was none other than Scheta, he was not much surprised. Though, he also kind of expected that Elder Qino from the Kerr family could be the person behind it.
