Chapter 1095 You Old Fart!

Chapter 1095 You Old Fart!

Edgar Alstreim took a deep breath as he turned to look at Weiss Alstreim. His lips moved.

"Who are you?"

"Weiss Alstreim... the Young Master... of the Alstreim Family..." Weiss Alstreim replied in a monotonous voice.

Edgar Alstreim nodded, but he sneered.

To think that Weiss Alstreim still thought of himself as the Young Master when he should be perfectly aware that he lost the battle when he got caught by him in a death grip.

Could it be that the realization just hadn’t sunken yet?

’Perhaps...’ Edgar Alstreim thought before moving on to asking the real questions.

"Are you the person responsible for my wife, Julianna’s death?"

"... Yes."

Weiss Alstreim replied with a dull expression, and even though Edgar Alstreim knew it would be the case, he still couldn’t help but feel anger swelling up within him. An intense killing intent flashed past his eyes.

It was the second question he asked, yet the rage he felt was boundless. His arms shook as he controlled himself.

"Why did you kill her when you could’ve just dealt with me...?"

"A mere... maid doesn’t have the stature to be greeted... with respect just because she became... your wife at that time... Besides, she was... your weakness..."

Edgar Alstreim’s anger abruptly quelled, but he felt deep remorse welling within him. If he had just waited for some time and didn’t give Julianna a proper status, perhaps she never would’ve been targeted. He should’ve known this but drunk by the Young Master’s status; he foolishly thought no one could possibly target him.

Indeed, no one directly targeted him but took him out using his weak points. It was all his fault for not considering everything when it is his responsibility to be careful of competitors.

Claire lowered her head as she heard, but when she saw her father tremble, she instantly wanted to head towards him and console but she couldn’t, not at this moment.

She was aware that revealing herself is equivalent to revealing the opening of Forsaken Phoenix Realm. Unless it was an emergency, she knew that she could commit such a blunder.

While Edgar Alstreim was wallowing in self-blame, Davis interjected.

"Does Grand Elder Elise Alstreim have to do anything with Julianna’s death?"

"... No."

"Oh... then what about Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim?"

His body was increasingly trembling, wanting to slap Weiss Alstreim to death in an instant, but he just couldn’t in front of the Ancestor. His trembling stopped, but it wasn’t from relief or ease but from the realization that he could no longer stop themselves from being exposed.

Edgar Alstreim’s expression flashed. This could only be the truth as Weiss Alstreim could not lie in this state unless Alchemist Davis explicitly told him.

With this evidence, he knew that he could effectively punish Grand Elder Elise Alstreim!

He continued to ask.

"How did Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim help you in obtaining the Young Master’s position through ousting me?"

"Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim... didn’t..."

"He didn’t?" Edgar Alstreim became taken aback!

"... Yes."

Edgar Alstreim blinked in doubt before he changed the question, "Was Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim related to ousting me in any way?"

"...Yes."

A smirk appeared on Edgar Alstreim’s lips as he glanced at Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim, "How so?"

"Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim... suppressed any information regarding Grand Elder Elise Alstreim’s involvement... in ousting you..."

Edgar Alstreim understood that Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim didn’t have any direct involvement, but his expression changed as he burst into laughter!

"Hahaha! How moving! The parent takes care of the children’s mistakes..."

"Extremely moving indeed! But when you’re the victim at the end of this endearing behaviors, it makes you puke towards the injustice done to you!"

*PahhH!~*

Edgar Alstreim slapped Weiss Alstreim again, but this time, it was without powerful energy behind it. He further pointed at Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and bellowed!

"You old fart! Was killing Julianna the only way you could make Weiss Alstreim the Young Master!? Was through making my Claire disappear the only way you could make Nora Alstreim the Young Mistress!?"

"Don’t you know how to compete fairly!?"

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim became red as he felt a pang of shame at being berated by a junior in front of all the big-shots. He wasn’t even able to form something in his mind to refute. In reality, he knew that no matter what excuses he made, with the Ancestor here, he was convinced that they were going to be suppressed and punished.

Although being executed was far-fetched, imprisonment was inevitable.

"When a bad sapling grows in your garden, you would root it out to stop it corrupting the other good saplings. However, I precisely failed to do that..."

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim heaved a heavy sigh before he looked at Edgar Alstreim with wide eyes, "I admit my mistakes!"
