Raina North drove to The Celestial Alliance headquarters early in the morning.
When she got out of the car, her legs were weak, and she couldn’t muster any strength, feeling as if her body had been emptied.
"Orion, you’re finally here."
Pip Finch saw Raina North from afar and ran over energetically, noticing her dispirited look: "Orion, didn’t you go home early last night? Why do you look so drained?"
Didn’t she feel completely drained yesterday?
That kind of cauldron, she never wanted to experience it again in her life, okay?
Raina North looked up at Pip Finch: "Why are you so energetic?"
"Oh, I was fighting all night until dawn, it was fantastic, how could I not be energetic?" Pip Finch asked, "Orion, you still haven’t answered my question? What did you do yesterday?"
"Me? I was fighting too."
"What?" Pip Finch looked as if the sky was falling, shouting: "Orion, how could you? There was a fight and you didn’t call me!"
"For Pete’s sake, keep it down, you’re hurting my brain."
"Orion, you actually scolded me!" Pip Finch looked like the sky was about to collapse: "No matter what, next time you have to take me to fight."
"That’s not possible." Third Elder walked over leisurely this time, chuckling: "The fights the Alliance Leader gets into can’t call you."
Pip Finch was incredulous: "There’s a fight in this world where you can’t call your brothers to join?"
Pip Finch squinted at Third Elder, with an expression saying, don’t try to fool me, I’ve read enough books.
Third Elder couldn’t be bothered with Pip Finch, this fool, and smiled at Raina North: "Seeing the Alliance Leader having fun last night puts me at ease, my efforts were worth it."
Raina North gritted her teeth, brimming with killing intent: "Well, I must thank you for that."
"We’re all one family, no need to be so polite, as long as the Alliance Leader is happy."
She was indeed happy, happy enough to want to kill.
At this moment, Lune strode in, saying: "Orion, the First Elder has brought people here."
"Great, saves me the trouble of inviting them." Raina North instructed: "Let them in."
"No need to invite, we can come in ourselves."
As soon as Raina North finished speaking, a loud voice rang out, and with it, more than a dozen elders stepped in.
Leading them was the First Elder.
His face appeared very kind, with a benevolent smile: "I was just too eager to see the Alliance Leader, forgive the discourtesy if you will."
Raina North turned and sat in the chair, letting out a cold chuckle: "A small matter? Apparently, in the First Elder’s eyes, it’s just a small matter. What would be considered a big issue, assassination of me, the Celestial Alliance Leader?" The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novᴇlfire.net
First Elder looked bewildered: "It’s our fault, yearning too much to see the Alliance Leader and thus couldn’t wait to be summoned, thinking the Alliance Leader would understand and not pursue it. Since the Alliance Leader’s sentiments differ, insisting on these small matters, I’ll accept the penalty."
"So it’s still my fault, huh?"
"Wouldn’t dare." Though the First Elder said he wouldn’t dare, his attitude showed no trace of panic: "You are the Alliance Leader, you can’t be wrong."
Raina North’s lips curled into a peculiar smile, her voice gentle: "Oh, so I’m still the Celestial Alliance Leader? I thought after being away for a few years, someone else had taken over."
