Therefore, he decided to go his own way and start from elsewhere in his quest to compete for the
position of head.
This was how he decided to curry favor with the son of the Ginger family and plan to attack Alba.
Of course, Cornelius also paid for this with his life.
Archimedes continued to practice with his eyes closed.
After some time….
Knock knock knock!
A knock on the door woke him up.
“Who is it?” Archimedes asked somewhat dissatisfied.
He hated it when others disturbed him when he was practicing.
“Master, it’s me!” An old man’s voice came from outside the door.
“Come in!” Cornelius said.
The door opened and an old man with gray hair walked in from the outside.
The identity of this old man was not simple.
His name was Bernard Lightfoot. He was a relatively distant member of the Lightfoot family, and he
was also the protector sent to Archimedes by the family.
He was very strong and was an Eternal Realm late Sovereign Ranker.
As the first-in-line heir of the Lightfoot family, Archimedes’ safety was very important, and it was a lot
more important than that of Cornelius.
If Cornelius was dead, the Lightfoot family would be outraged.
However, if Archimedes died, the Lightfoot family would not just be outraged, they would turn the whole
world upside down.
Even the few Saint Realm grandmasters would be alarmed.
Suh was the gap between the first-in-line heir and the second-in-line heir.
It seemed they were only one position away, but the treatment they received was very different.
For example, Archimedes had a protector, but Cornelius did not.
If Archimedes was the one who attacked Alba and not Cornelius, David, a mid-Sovereign Ranker,
might suffer a disadvantage at the hands of the late Sovereign Rank old man.
Of course, David’s mind power and Evil-Splitting Sword were his greatest assists. So, he would not be
scared.
However, it would be difficult if he wanted to kill and silence the old man.
After Bernard came in, Archimedes got up to welcome him.
Archimedes would not put on the airs in front of the old man who had been with him for so many years
and did everything he could to guarantee his safety.
“Uncle Bernard, you’re here. Please sir,” Archimedes said courteously.
“Master Archi, I already know why the family issued a convening order,” the old man said after he sat
down.
“Oh, what is it? Tell me.” Archimedes asked curiously.
“Cornelius is dead.”
“Cornelius is dead? How?” Archimedes asked with a frown.
Archimedes was familiar with the second-in-line heir of the family.
He was talented, but was still pretty inferior to Archimedes.
Back then, Cornelius made up his mind to train so he could fight for the position of head of the family
with Archimedes.
After he was mercilessly defeated, Cornelius stayed silent for a while.
Recently, it was said that he had once again become active and he was getting very close to the
Ginger family.
How did he die so suddenly?
This entire time, Archimedes was never bothered about Cornelius.
“It’s uncertain how he died, but his life plaque broke not long ago, so the family issued a convening
order. The head and all of the seniors are outraged. They ordered us to find the reason he died and the
murderer. Then, they will suppress the murderer with everything they have and annihilate the
murderer’s entire bloodline to protect the dignity of the Lightfoot family,” Bernard said.
After this, he told Archimedes what happened in the main hall just now.
After Archimedes heard that, he pondered for a while and said, “Cornelius is ultimately still the second-
in-line heir of the family. His death will soon spread across the Central Sacred Continent, so this will
indeed cause a huge blow to the family’s prestige. It’s normal for the seniors to be mad. Right, where is
Cornelius’ protector?”
“They all died, including the two beginner Sovereign Rankers. All of them were defeated and none of
them survived,” Bernard answered.
“Since the murderer could kill two beginner Sovereign Rankers, he’s not weak. I wonder who it is. If
they accidentally killed Cornelius because they didn’t know who he was, it’s still understandable. If they
knew Cornelius was the direct descendant of the Lightfoot family and they still killed him, then this
would be interesting,” Archimedes chuckled and said. However, his smile looked sinister.
