章 620: Challenge

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

While the elders realized that a lot of their people had already decided to side with either Gildroy or Narcissa, their confidence in being able to reverse the situation wasn't unfounded.

The respect that those of the Nightingale clan had for people with superior strength and skill was one of the key reasons why Gildroy had been so successful in his 'recruitment' despite all his other prospects being so poor.

In fact, much of his 'success' could be attributed to his ex-wife, which was quite ironic. By assaulting the eldest daughter of the new main branch, not only did he not lose anything, but also established his reputation as the stronger of the two!

After the incident witnessed by many not long ago, no one would believe Narcissa's personal strength to be of the same class as her ex-husband, and if not for her status and the influence of various elders from her branch, perhaps she wouldn't even have the support that she had now.
