Chapter: 392

“What?”

The Lord didn’t expect this coming and raised his eyebrows. And at that moment, Sama Yi, Yin Moha, and Huan Yi all got up from their seat and came up behind Yeowun and knelt and shouted.

“Please approve Prince Chun Yeowun as the heir to the throne!”

Five Elders who were watching uncomfortably at Yeowun becoming elder, became shocked and grimaced.

“Please approve me as the heir to the throne!”

With Chun Yeowun’s unexpected request, everyone within the Grand Hall became shocked. Those who were most shocked were elders from five clans. They were uncomfortable about Yeowun becoming an elder, and became even furious when Yeowun asked for approval to become the heir.

‘Dammit!’

‘He... aimed for this!’

Yeowun had gone for a chance to request the Lord. And there were three elders who were behind Yeowun. They were surely approving of Yeowun.

‘S-since when he persuaded them?’

‘Yin Moha? Huan Yi?’

Aside from Sama Yi, Yin Moha and Huan Yi were known for their unruly nature and stubbornness. But both of them were now on their knees and asking for Yeowun’s ascension to the future Lord.

‘I have to stop...’

But elders from five clans had no reason or way to stop this from happening. And with all clan leaders within the cult looking at them, they couldn’t just object out of emotion without being ridiculed after.

‘Dammit...!’

‘There is no way!’

Chun Yeowun had defeated all competitors in the competition and also gathered approval from three elders. With the Lord’s approval, he was now going to be appointed as the new heir to the throne. Elders were fools to think that they can get rid of Yeowun anytime.

‘If the Lord approves it, then...’

This was the worst-case scenario. If one not from the six clans were to succeed the throne, then it was going to be the downfall of six clans. Everyone turned to the Lord. Chun Yujong looked surprised.

‘...Is he really the boy I once knew?’

Chun Yujong was astounded by Chun Yeowun. When Yeowun first appeared as an elder, he was surprised of the child who was not even in his slightest concern, growing powerful in a short time. But now, Chun Yujong was astounded by Yeowun’s smart moves. Yeowun was bowing respectfully, but his eyes were full of confidence as he looked up to the Lord. It wasn’t the young, vengeful boy who Yujong once saw on the first day of the Demonic Academy.

‘...So, you want to succeed my throne.’

The atmosphere had became tense with everyone focusing on the lord. Chun Yujong then opened his mouth.

“Are three of you approve the 7th Prince as the heir?”

Chun Yujong asked and people turned bright and frustrated at the same time. Those who sided with Chun Yeowun brightened and elders and clan leaders who sided with six clans frowned. Chun Yeowun was now an elder, but as he was called as the 7th prince, it meant that Chun Yujong was officially considering him as a candidate to the throne.

“I, Sama Yi the 9th Elder, approve Prince Chun Yeowun as the heir to the throne.”

“I, Yin Moha the 10th Elder, approve Prince Chun Yeowun as the heir to the throne.”

“I, Huan Yi the 11th Elder, approve Prince Chun Yeowun as the heir to the throne.”

And with their determined voice, Chun Yujong looked at each of them. It seemed these three elders truly approve Chun Yeowun as the heir, and they didn’t seem to care about six clans.

‘...Maybe this might be a better way.’
