Countless thoughts running through my mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if I want to escape it's impossible to escape now. When we entered the place, the fog disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of me, a huge mansion appeared. There is a wide herbal garden before it. There are 2 people in the garden discussing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the dean brought me to the garden. I suddenly felt an incredible amount of healing essence around the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. Then I saw Franklin Madden. There is a pale looking old man sitting opposite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I'm right he is the Supreme Elder of the academy. After my teacher and Jonathan, this is the 1st time I'm going to meet someone so strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tud~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then we landed on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder?\" Rebecca called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man turned his head and looked at us. When I felt his gaze. For a second,my heart froze. The old man's gaze was piercing. I couldn't help but think about the inheritance and my red skeleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the old man frowned. For a second, he wanted to see through the young man. Then he recalled Lowell's warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the young man has some secrets. It must be rated McClain's Household. Prying on their secrets would lead to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about it, he took away his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Rebecca is looking at Franklin who is carrying a flattering smile on his face. She couldn't help but feel disgusted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now she confirms something in her heart. The supreme elder is favoring Franklin for some reason..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old man looked at the dean and said,\"Rebecca, you can leave. I'm going to talk to this young man in private.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rebecca was disappointed. She looked at Franklin. The world is only directed at her, not Franklin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nodding at Zack, she disappeared from the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, my heart was in turmoil. My only protection has gone. What are these 2 crooked people up to?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I saw the flame faction head looking at me with an unkind gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your name is Zack right?\" the old man asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that I responded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, elder. I'm Zack Lockwood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man revealed a bright smile. But I know it's a fake smile. But I can't expose him right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, I'm good friends with your teacher. One of the reasons I have asked you to come is to meet you first. The second is about your duel against the flame faction warrior,\" The old man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franklin is also grinning ear to ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at both of them, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I answered genuinely,\"If I start to accept challenges, then everyone will challenge me later. I fear that if I do that I won't get any time for practice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surprise glint flashes in the old man's eyes. Even Franklin Madden's expression condensed. They can't find any fault with these words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Warriors from other factors have challenged Zack as well. And for the flame faction it's not the 1st time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franklin couldn't help but look at the Supreme Elder. Only he can help him at this moment. Besides, the old man was one who wanted the duel to happen badly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are just following his orders. While thoughts running through his mind. The old man thought of something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young man, I know you are right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I want you to help me with this. Some of the students are arrogant. That they can, it's not necessary to practice hard for the year end conference.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you defeat them in front of everyone. Then it would reignite their ambition and they won't be wasting time here after,\" The old man said in a righteous tone. Like he genuinely cared for the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Franklin was dumbfounded. He had never heard such caring words before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, I sneered inside. If not for Jonathan's early exposure, I would have believed in his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that kid is contemplating. The old man showed triumphant smile. Then he recalled the items located at the Glass City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, it's not like I'm forcing you. But if you accept to help the Academy, then I'll fetch the items for you from the Glass city,\" The old man added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that a bit of surprise appeared on my face. Earlier, I thought they were making things up. But looks like the item located at the Glass is related to the lightning element.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, if you promised to help us, then we will get those items for you,\" Franklin added as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at two of them I cursed inwardly. I have come this far. I don't want to tear off my face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, elder. I'll fight. But I need that thing before the duel to improve my strength,\" I answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\" Franklin's face darkened. It's because they can't enter the Glass City. They have decided to come up with the solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to coerce Zack. But because of the Supreme Elder's words. Franklin can't say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man wasn't offended. He thought that kid was clever and reasonable. Anyone can see that the flame faction is not having any good intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, we will get that thing for before the duel. Franklin you can take him with you now,\" The old man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Franklin grabbed my shoulder before disappearing from the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the old man's face changes drastically. It has become ugly and distorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a cunning brat?\" The old man snorted. He was still dissatisfied that the little kid dared talk back to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The background of Lowell McClain stopped him from doing anything to do that kid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hope Franklin won't disappoint me,\" He looked in the direction of both of their disappearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Franklin Madden dropped me before the dormitory.?He then left without turning back. Seeing that I chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess the Glass City is not easy,\" I said in my heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then turning around, I sent a message to the dean. She must be worrying. When I was there I could see the tense situation between her and Franklin Madden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I returned to my room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Somewhere at the border. Carlos Kent was hiding in a temporary basement which he had built for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought that the Giant Tower Headmaster would chase him for a life. But nothing like that happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had turned off his sci-fi watch after speaking to Jonathan. This location was given by Jonathan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos is waiting for him to appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hope I have picked up the right side,\" Carlos muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about the black squirming liquid. He shuddered. After the clash with the Giant Tower Headmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some truth was revealed to him. The Giant Tower Headmaster is not himself. He must be under the control of someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder he wants to carry out every plan successfully. How could someone control the headmaster of one of the top 6 academies?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasp~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sucked a cold breath of air. Everytime he thinks about it. It only gives him goosebumps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you so scared?\" A stern voice reached his ears all of a sudden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos Kent was stunned before recognising the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir. Jonathan,\" Then he flew out of the mansion. Then he saw a man wearing black trench coat and hat standing before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Carlos' mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, you are late. I got exposed. Now I'm afraid, I can't go back to the academy,\" Carlos said in a sad tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jonathan showed no emotion. But he was glad that the pawn was not destroyed. At least he can be helpful for young master Zack at early stages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you going to let me wait outside?\" Jonathan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This?\" Carlos caught off guard. Then both of them walked into the basement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sitting down, Jonathan started his professional work. He inquired about the details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos has been waiting for this whole time. So he began to speak without anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jonathan was as usual calm at first without any big waves in his eyes. But when Carlos talked about insect class monsters to control people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression becomes serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jonathan heard everything from Carlos. He was satisfied by Carlos' work. Especially about the information on insect class monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A quick gleam flashes in Jonathan's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Giant Tower Headmaster is controlled by someone. And the medium is insect monster,\" He said in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To control the ranks of SSS-Elite Warriors. The control insect must be in the same class as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such monsters are only found in the inner post. If any single one of the monsters appears here, it's nothing less than that of a natural disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jonathan decides to save Zack Lockwood. He can't take chances anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he looked at Carlos and said,\"Alright, you have done a good job. I'm going to rescue Zack first. You should wait for me here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carlos nodded at him. He finally felt escaped from death threats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that Jonathan left the basement.\u003C\u002Fp>",1534,"2026-06-05T15:56:53.483Z",1,"novelbin.me","b0dfd0a967424cb4e768d743d3d249e424e455a9938d8628eda7eb24c6572259","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-590","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-588",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
