Chapter 275: 271 The Plan

While the three siblings were having their reunion, there was a certain man who was watching them from the window of one of the top floors of the mansion.

It was a tall slender middle-aged man wearing a long tail dark coat who was standing condescendingly on the intricately ribbed floor-to-ceiling window of his wide office.

His long mauve hair was clamped by a neat ponytail and his face gives a noble aura that was strongly enhanced by his gold-rimmed monocle glasses.

"So that's the youngest generation of the Vesala Clan in the Seirende empire?" He mumbled as he was watching the interaction between the siblings.

The butler who had reported their arrival respectfully bowed and replied, "Indeed, My Grace. However, the information that we were able to get was there were still some distant relatives from their generation bearing the name Vesala. However, their bloodline was already far from the allowed purity of the Vesala's main branch."

"Hmm… it doesn't matter then. Go on and ensure that they stay well and satisfied in the estate." The man ordered in a calm steady tone.

"I heard your orders, My Grace. We will ensure that they will be satisfied in their stay in the Cuervo Duchy." The butler bowed again and proceeded to exit the room.

Alone in the spacious office that was filled with luxurious red and gold color combinations, the Duke of Cuervo turned slightly as he glanced towards a certain chesterfield sofa.

The sofa wasn't facing him however, it was as if he knew that there was a person who was lazily lying on it.

The Duke asked in a respectful tone, "My lord, you've heard the arrival of the young descendants of the Vesala branch family. What are your orders milord?"

"Just leave them be, for I do not want them to have a hint on what we are planning." An alluring male voice responded to the Duke.

The figure was hidden in the shadows from the curtain of the room, however, the figure slightly raised his slender hands and relieved his pale skin. His hands were adorned by numerous precious jewels that immediately shined as soon as a little light came to the area.

"As to the acting duke and the empress in the Seirende Empire, they were almost done for. These siblings were too foolish in the way they do their work!" The figure immediately began to whine lazily.

His tone did not hide the disgust he was feeling towards Duke Maxim and Empress Carolina whom he was pertaining to.

"Do you need me to do something for them?" Duke Cuervo attentively asked. His expression didn't change even as he heard the other party ridicule the family of his wife.

"No, I do not wish to waste any resources for them anymore. For generations, the main branch has waited for their side of the family to destroy the Seirendes. My forefathers even left them a strong relic to use for their mission and yet, they failed! Generation by generation they continue to fail!" The irritation and impatience were now evident in the man's voice.

Duke Cuervo could see that the man's anger was not directed at him and yet knowing that the other party was angry made him feel a deep sense of fear.

"I will ensure that this boring cycle will end in my regime. If that foolish Duke and Empress couldn't make it, I will make it so that these three siblings would do the work for me!" The man continued.

"If I may be permitted to ask, Milord. How about using the first prince? He had the blood of the Seirende and Vesala, wouldn't he be the best candidate to carry out the mission?" The Duke couldn't help but curiously ask.

Why did his lord only orchestrate to have the Vesala siblings take refuge in the Vanderford empire while the first prince of Seirende, who was the direct descendant of Empress Carolina who holds the ancient relic was left behind?

"Because he won't last long…" The mysterious man replied. His tone was nonchalant and he was saying it as if he did not care about the life of the person they were talking about.

This time he shifted from his lazy posture and finally sat upright, revealing his luscious purple hair. His head turned to Duke Cuervo's direction, revealing his appearance. It was none other than the second appearance of Lord Raven.

Lord Raven still had a lazy demeanor as his deep purple eyes looked at the Duke as if he saw through everything, "Are you thinking that since he had the blood of two clans who received a celestial blessing, he will be stronger than any other man in this continent?"

"T-this… indeed Milord!" Duke Cuervo didn't deny Lord Raven's conclusion, instead, he bowed respectfully while he answered with full reverence.

He was a duke that was ten years older than Mariella, yet his actions proved that he was deeply fearful of the young beautiful man sitting on the sofa.

Seeing how submissive Duke Cuervo was, Lord Raven couldn't help but give a light chuckle which sent all of the Duke's skin a wave of goosebumps. "Ah, it's natural for normal people like you to think like that. However, the Seirende's blessing and the Vesala's blessing were made to counter each other from the start. What do you think would happen to the body who contained both of these blessings?"

"T-the body may soon fall apart because of the constant fighting of the two contradicting powers!" Struck with the realization, the Duke's eyes widened in disbelief as he answered Lord Raven's question.

"You are indeed a lot sharper than your predecessors." Lord Raven nodded in approval before he continued, "That is why that poor first prince may have to die first than his mother… He was a wasted effort by those siblings, to be honest."

Hearing Lord Raven's narration, a question sprouted into Duke Cuervo's mind. However, he opted not to ask it aloud for it may incur the anger of the lord in front of him.

"Why did I allow the two siblings to carry out having offspring with the Seirende?" Lord Raven had clearly seen through what was in the Duke's expression.

Hearing the same question in his heart, the Duke felt like a cold bucket of water was splashed all over his body, "Y-yes.." He resigned and admitted that he was thinking about the question.

"That's because I am curious if that thing was possible in the first place!" Lord Raven exclaimed as if the matter they were talking about was just a play set up by him.

"In all fairness, it was only this pair of siblings who have thought of mixing the Seirende blood with the Vesalas. I initially got curious if that idea would be plausible, but as soon as I saw the child, I lost interest. It was a failed experiment and a waste of my attention…" Lord Raven continued.

"I see, thank you for graciously enlightening me, Milord." Duke Cuervo finally understood his master's intentions.

"Then… just do your job in keeping the siblings well. Make it so that they wouldn't have any idea of what was happening to their parents back in the Seirende Empire. Let's build up their resentment by withholding the information until the time that their 'clan' had completely fallen. Only then will they be useful for my plans!" Lord Raven reverted back to his lazy demeanor as he casually waved his hands.

"I hear your orders, My lord." Duke Cuervo bowed and replied with determination. He had no intention to question his lord's plans even if one of the people they would be using was his very own wife.

"However, do not fret, those siblings would surely deal a lot of damage in the Seirende Empire! They will not go down without a fight. So their deaths were not in vain! By the time their lives were exhausted, that Empire would immediately weaken and it would be easier for us to destroy them." Lord Raven continued.

"My lord is wise!"  Duke Cuervo praised sincerely.

"Hmm… as for the relic, it will come back to us as soon as the recent carrier dies. It was just a shame that the subject of the oracle did not show herself even after the chaos. I might be mistaken about her whereabouts. She might not possibly be in the Seirende Empire…" These were the last words Duke Cuervo heard from Lord Raven whose voice was slowly fading away.

By the time he lifted his head, Lord Raven's figure was no longer on the chesterfield sofa and the Duke was truly alone in the spacious room.

He looked towards the window again and saw that the entrance was already cleared. The siblings might have settled inside the estate already.

He was looking forward to the news that would come in the Seirende Empire, the long-standing rival of their Vanderford empire.

If the siblings of the Vesala Branch did well before they die, then it will surely be easier for them to finally wipe out the Seirende's existence in Prasinos.

By then, the Vanderford Empire would finally be the sole power that unified the entire continent!
