Chapter 190
“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 . ’
An heir that wasn’t related to the six clans . It wasn’t what Chun Yujong had been planning, but he decided that this too didn’t seem too bad . The Lord then nodded and decided . As he was going to speak out his decision, a sharp, hostile aura came to his senses . It wasn’t only Chun Yujong who felt this . Everyone felt the hostile energy and turned to the source .
‘F-first Elder?’
The source was the First Elder and Leader of the Wise clan, Mu Jinwon . He was glaring at Chun Yeowun with bloodshot eyes, with veins popping up over his forehead due to fury . He had been in shock ever since he heard that his family members were killed, and he didn’t care about anything else now .
‘He dare asks to be appointed as the heir at this moment?!’
Just up until the Lord and elders left the cult’s castle, Chun Muyun was very close to the heir . With other princes from each clan were expelled, Mu Jinwon believed that Chun Muyun will become the heir with not much of an issue . But when he returned, he found out that everyone from his clan had died while he was gone . Chun Muyun too, had committed crime inside the academy, escaped from the prison and eventually was found dead within the mansion of the Poison clan . From what Mu Jinwon can see, Lady Mu nor Chun Muyun was not foolish enough to do such foolish thing right before the competition was almost over . Both of them had died with a mistake that they would never have made, and Chun Yeowun became sole competitor, and requested to be appointed as the heir as if he waited for it . With this, Mu Jinwon could only think of one culprit for his suspicion .
‘Chun… Yeowun!’
