Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 949: Confess Your Wrongs

"It is just as you imagine, Valdrey Alstreim..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim nodded his head, "If Weiss Alstreim abdicates his Young Master position gained through unfair means and accepts his wrong while spending a few hundred years in imprisonment, I can shorten the sentence to public execution for Elise Alstreim alone and let the three generations of descendants go.""Valdrey Alstreim, if you confess that you have schemed against so many talents in the past and take responsibility for it for a few thousand years in imprisonment, I will shorten Elise Alstreim's sentence from execution to life imprisonment."Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's eyes went wide as his heart skipped a beat. However, Weiss Alstreim completely took a step back as his expression shook in reluctance. He understood that Ancestor Dian Alstreim pointed at him when he said, 'other than a single talent-less person'."What... What about me?" Nora Alstreim echoed, "I can also abdicate my rightfully gained Young Mistress position! Would that lessen the sentence of grandma!?"She already looked down on Weiss Alstreim, so she wasn't surprised but was instead worried about Grand Elder Elise Alstreim. She too wanted Weiss Alstreim to repent, but that was not important as she too also wanted to be of use for all the gratitude Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim had bestowed her.She couldn't bear to see Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim be helpless like a newly-born child... It was as if her own pillar, her conviction was breaking."What about me? I... I can-" Patriarch Eldric Alstreim pointed to himself but was abruptly interrupted."Lessening the sentence to life imprisonment is the best I can do..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim shook his head, "If I go any further, it is a complete misuse of my authority.""It isn't as if you all could not visit Elise Alstreim in prison. I am implying that it would be... that she would just lose her freedom to roam around and spend her remaining life in prison." Follow current on novelenglish.net

"Now, I've placed two choices in front of you all. Whether you accept the proposals or not, the choice is yours..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim ended his speech.Nora Alstreim and Patriarch Eldric Alstreim wanted to say many things in retort, but they kept their mouth shut as they knew that the chances of them losing this opportunity were more if they were to be presumptuous instead. They could not afford to slip up.On the other hand, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim didn't take too much time to decide. His shoulders dropped in defeat before he turned to look at Weiss Alstreim, but his eyes widened in disbelief to see him shaking his head in reluctance.Only then did everyone notice that Weiss Alstreim was muttering something... something along the lines that he didn't want to give up the position of Young Master."You!" Nora Alstreim clenched her fists as her eyes narrowed into two tiny slits.She was the first to express her disgust before all the others frowned largely at Weiss Alstreim's reaction. Nora Alstreim already knew what type of a person Weiss Alstreim was, but she didn't think that he would be this shameless, to not help the one who got him into this position but instead go as far as to abandon when there was an opportunity given!She felt that it was absolutely shameless and immoral to not help someone who always looked after you. It was just accepting his wrongs and being in prison for a few hundred years to save Elise Alstreim. It wasn't as if this trash was going to waste his potential since his talent was already subpar when compared to other geniuses. However, just for retaining his position as the Young Master, he was ready to throw away his backer, the person he kept calling 'grandma' as if he didn't love anyone in this world.Ancestor Dian Alstreim's expression turned into one of disdain. There is always some bad apple that ends up implicating and corrupting the good apples near it into bad apples."No... I... I cannot let go of the Young Master's position." Weiss Alstreim cowered, "Otherwise, I... I will lose my status...""Shut up!!!" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim pointed at Weiss Alstreim as his finger trembled. Follow current on novel-online.com

"For my Elise to treat you so well... I can only say that she was blind... No! I was blind to have even allowed you to near my daughter!" Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim took a step forward as his eyes were filled with killing intent.However, a hand stopped him from making a move. He moved his head to the side and saw Patriarch Eldric Alstreim block him while possessing a calm demeanor."Don't be hasty, grandfather." Patriarch Eldric Alstreim said."We need his petty life to save mother..."Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim nodded his head, taking a deep breath as he knew that he just lost his calm. He didn't bother about the cowardly and backstabbing Weiss Alstreim anymore as he turned to look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim.If he confessed, Weiss Alstreim would naturally be implicated since he was the one who moved people in the top to turn a blind eye to Weiss Alstreim's unfair means in obtaining the Young Master's position. He didn't delay anymore."I con-""Stop..." A weak yet melodious voice echoed.Everyone turned their heads to look at the voice, which was none other than Grand Elder Elise Alstreim.Grand Elder Elise Alstreim stared at Weiss Alstreim with a disappointed expression on her face. Her eyes were moist with a bit of disbelief in it. The child she took care of so much turned against her at the moment of truth. It was like a knife pierced her heart, making it leak tears of blood. She pursed her lips as her lips trembled. Follow current on storynovel.net

"Get out..."Weiss Alstreim trembled before he instantly tried to explain himself, "Grandma, I...""I said, get out!" Grand Elder Elise Alstreim screamed as she shed two tears, "Never call me by that name again!"Weiss Alstreim shivered before he clenched his fists in anger. He couldn't understand why these people are trying to push him into the abyss when it is clearly Elise Alstreim, who should die since she had lived her life for 6,000 years!He was just an infant compared to her, wanting to enjoy the world!'Old bitch! Just die rather than dragging me along with you!'He came to possess hateful eyes before he stormed off from the room, unaware, or perhaps not realizing that he was nothing without the support of these people in this room.Everyone acted as if Weiss Alstreim didn't exist as they didn't chase his silhouette with their eyes.Once the sound of the door closing could be heard, Grand Elder Elise Alstreim slowly moved her head towards Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim as a tinge of affection could be seen in her weak eyes.No matter what, it was her father who was always ready to give up everything for her. Her eyes didn't move for a while before her gaze landed on Ancestor Dian Alstreim."It isn't as if the Aqua Flood Dragon chased me for nothing..." Grand Elder Elise Alstreim lightly smiled as a cunning light flashed in her dull eyes."You... That means..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim became taken aback before he realized the nuance in her words.
