Chapter 1668 Kach "So, you are also here to figure out where some of these young masters are going and butter them up?"
"Yes, but my goal is different. I am actually here to take something one of the young masters owes me."
"A young master of the Sura clan owes you? That is news. Can I ask what it is? If you don't mind sharing of course."
"No problem. It is not big deal. There is a small conflict between the young master and my clan. It was partially my clan member's fault as they behaved a bit out of line. They should have treated him accordingly when he visited us.
But we are located deep in the woods and we don't have much interaction with the rest of the world. The young master should have explained his identity well.
The dispute went overboard and the young master used his subordinates to overpower the clan before taking a sword from us. I am here to apologize to the young master and get the sword back. That sword has been in our clan for generations. It was the sword our founder used to establish our clan.
It is something we worship and it should only be wielded by a member of our clan."
Sam didn't speak for a second. He looked at the young man who had a nervous smile at the start. There is a sense of purity in his face that didn't match the refined sword aura he had.
With the sword aura that was definitely built by endless practice and numerous battles, there is no way this guy is a nervous young man and along with his cultivation, there is no way that this guy let a young master of the clan walk all over his clan.
When someone is this pure with his mind and this good with battle, he would kill anything and everything that comes at the things that he truly loves if push comes to shove."
"Were you not there when this incident happened?"
"No, unfortunately, I was out training some of the kids from the clan. If I were there, I wouldn't have let this happen. I would have just apologized to him then and there and resolved the issue."
"Yeah, I am sure you would have done that."
"Where are my manners? I forgot to introduce myself. I am Kach. Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too. I am Sam. May I know which young master it is that you have to talk with?"
"The Ninth young master of the clan. The latest student of Brig. He is also a Dark elemental swordsman. I can understand why he took our sword."
Sam couldn't help but smile. It seems like even with all the drawbacks he had, he still has some luck left.
The person he spotted is linked to Brig. Even though it is a long and far-fetched way. He is sure that there is a chance that he would be able to get in touch with Brig.
As far as he is concerned that is going to be a tough and time-consuming part at the start. He needs to infiltrate and meet the guy one way or the other. Now, if he sticks to this guy, there is a chance that he could easily meet him.
It might be a rocky start based on how this situation goes. But at least he will have a starting point.
I hope you can understand why it came to this."
Everyone became silent. It is a perfect definition of the pin drop silence. Except for the growling of the horses.
Sam crossed his arms and stood there calmly as he watched the scene.
"There must have been a mistake. Manager, what do you have to say about this?"
The ninth young master asked one of his subordinates. I will investigate as soon as possible, young master. It hasn't come to my notice yet. I will also schedule an appointment with Sir Kach this evening."
"I hope you are okay with it."
"No need for an appointment young master. I am here to apologize to you. So it is better if I do this in public."
As Kach spoke, he knelt on the ground, while he offered his sword up with both of his hands. The most servile manner a proud swordsman could behave.
Ninth young master was stunned.
"This is the first sword forged with the lava from the Western Volcano. The sword is made of Dark Adamantine, a perfect metal for dark elemental swordsmen like you. It has manifested a spirit naturally and has seen countless battles.
When you visited my clan a few weeks ago, you had a slight scuffle with my clan members. I understand that my clan members might have crossed a line with you. In the scuffle, you have brought back our heirloom which is justifiable since we caused your anger.
I apologize to you on my clan's behalf now and I would like it if you can be forgiving enough to give our sword back and in return please take my sword as a token of my apology.
For generations, the heirloom has been passed on from one clan head to another and it is our duty to protect it as a homage to our ancestor's sacrifices.
Please, find the kindness in your heart to accept this."
Kach bowed his head and offered his sword.
Sam is a bit surprised, but he is also impressed. It is hard for a person who dedicated his life to a single art to bow like this. Particularly, a swordsman giving out his sword like this.
It has been a while since Sam came across a person like this. But when he looked at the Ninth young master on the horse, he didn't have the same feeling.
Because he came across the people like the Ninth young master all the time.
"I don't know what you are talking about. I have never visited the Meadow clan. In fact, I barely heard of you guys. I think you are mistaken. I am not the only Ninth young master in the surrounding cities. It must have been someone from another clan.
Please verify who it is. But since Meadow clan's forest comes under our territory, I will assist you in any way I can. Please make an appointment for that though. If you don't mind. I have to leave now."Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.
