Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1109: Half The Wealth

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim also acquiesced, "I accept the exchange..."She was more than happy to buy her father a way out, and if possible, she wanted to spend her entire wealth to exchange but looking at Claire Alstreim, she knew that she shouldn't push her luck.Claire still possessed an indifferent expression on her face, but her lips couldn't help but slightly curve.Was it this easy to obtain half of their wealth?'No, it was a good thing I demanded them to kowtow...' She felt that having them be humbled had an advantageous effect.Other than the presence of Ancestor Dian Alstreim, and without making them realize that they were completely in the wrong, she knew that this wouldn't be possible."Ancestor?" She directed their acknowledgment and question.Ancestor Dian Alstreim thought for a while before he nodded, "I approve.""However, you three can decide between yourselves on what Claire Alstreim receives and what you two lose."The three of them nodded their heads and looked at each other."Care to expound on the extent of your wealth so that I can take half from it?" Claire moved towards them.She was unafraid that they would suddenly attack.Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim inwardly scoffed at her guts before he took out a plethora of scrolls containing the deed of his assets. They floated around him, making many eyes pop open wide.Within the people present, Elder Havle Alstreim's eyes flashed with a bit of greed.How much was their total value?Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim opened his mouth, "These are..."However, Claire raised her hand, stopping him."Explain these to me through soul transmission. That way, it would be faster." Follow current on novelenglish.net

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's twitched, but he agreed with her. Indeed, using soul transmission to communicate would be faster as they could instantly understand the contents, unlike speaking through words.While Claire and the two Grand Elders communicated, Edgar Alstreim looked completely floored as he saw what his daughter was capable of! She had said 'watch us' to him, but he didn't think that she would be this capable!In a few seconds, Grand Elder Krax Alstreim joined their exchange. He confirmed that Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim did indeed possess the ownership of these businesses, properties, and assets, which included many cultivation resources and zones.He helped them estimate their value for a few minutes and confirmed the total value before halving it. One half remained with them, and the other half, which both Claire Alstreim and the two Grand Elders agreed upon to be exchanged, were transacted as compensation to lessen two thousand years of the sentence.Both Grand Elder Krax Alstreim and Ancestor Dian Alstreim were present as witnesses for this exchange, so it could be said that Claire Alstreim successfully gained ownership of many businesses, properties, and assets that previously belonged to Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim at this moment!Claire finally possessed a full-fledged smile on her face, but it was still cold. It was as if her schemes run deep.In comparison, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's expression was similar to someone who had swallowed a fly. He wanted to spit out but didn't dare! If he did, a life and death battle would ensue, and he was aware that he as well as his family would be the ones to suffer a defeat.On the other hand, Grand Elder Elise Alstreim remained expressionless, even absentminded. It could be seen that she was still tired from completely learning the true nature of the person known as Weiss Alstreim. As for the matter of splitting the wealth, it seemed that she didn't care much for it.After receiving the deeds into her spatial ring, Claire continued."I'm sure that since I have humiliated you all by making you all three kowtow and took half of the wealth as compensation. Therefore, I need you two to swear that you won't pursue this matter in the future.""Consequently, I swear that you two will only need to spend one year in prison, repenting for the wrongs you two committed."Claire reached out her hand and extended her index finger, and emphasized, "A mere year..."Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim became shocked. He had already vaguely decided that he wouldn't pursue these people since the debts and wrongs had been cleared, wiping the slate clean but now, there was an additional shortening of their sentence for the fifth time?He found this matter absurdly absurd!There were only a hundred and fifty years that they would have to be imprisoned. If they only had to stay imprisoned for a single year, what was all this, kneeling, asking for forgiveness, as well as handing over half the property for?Suddenly, he felt like he had been played somehow.If they spent only one year in imprisonment, wouldn't they easily be able to take care of their own businesses? Heck, even if a hundred years advance while they were in imprisonment, their businesses would still be able to run without incurring many losses!Grand Elder Alstreim stared at the cold-faced yet stunning Claire Alstreim. Instead of being played somehow, he could now tell that he was thoroughly played. However, he couldn't tell if this was intentional or accidental.He couldn't fathom how this small girl could've planned this ahead. Unless she and the Ancestor worked together, he couldn't see how something could happen like this! Follow current on novel-online.com

Nevertheless, despite feeling suspicious and indignant, he inwardly nodded as this was way better than losing their dignity again. In any case, most of the important properties and assets that allowed him to stay dominant in the Alstreim Family still belonged to him and his daughter, so he hadn't lost much in terms of status and influence.He was rather thankful that Claire Alstreim didn't demand these significant assets from him on the flip side. Otherwise, he would be put on a spot and forced to give the important assets since there was no way he would let go of the reduction of two thousand years from their sentences."Alright. I, Valdrey Alstreim, solemnly swear to the heavens and myself that I won't pursue Claire Alstreim and her entire family for revenge or explanation for this day! If I go against these words, may the heavens smite me to death!"Grand Elder Elise Alstreim uttered similar words, but her words were powerless, almost monotonous. Nonetheless, since she had made the oath, Claire heavily nodded her head!"I declare Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim only need to repent for one year in the Alstreim Family's prison!"Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled as his lips curved a bit. Such eloquence and ability. It was as if she really made the decision when he felt that it was he who granted her the rights.He spoke, "Krax, take them away..."Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Grand Elder Elise Alstreim didn't resist. Patriarch Eldric Alstreim seemed to have a hard time seeing his parent and grandparent taken away, but he didn't say anything.However, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim suddenly turned around and stared at Davis."I won't say much but take good care of my Nora, and don't let her come into harm..."He turned around and left without receiving a reply, but his backbone seemed to be heavy."In truth, I already gave my word to Nora that I will not harm her close ones, and that only includes the three of them."At this moment, a soul transmission rang out in Davis's head, and his eyes went wide as he shot a look of disbelief at his mother!Fuck!Did his mother just con them out of their wealth!? Not only did she con them to half-poverty, but she also made them kowtow and beg for forgiveness! Of course, it was possible because of the two deterrents known as the 'Ancestor' and 'Dragon Queen'.But it was still her who had done it! She had the guts to demand without consulting him!"What about Nora Alstreim? What did she promise mother in exchange?" He asked in curiosity."She has already become my slave for a thousand years." Claire unsanctimoniously replied.Davis raised a thumbs up but felt some pity for the innocent Nora Alstreim. Follow current on storynovel.net

Imagine doing nothing but still gets framed by a trusted friend before becoming exploited by another trusted 'dead yet alive' friend so as not to get their own grandfather and grandmother killed?This was precisely Nora Alstreim.In her matter, they were certainly the unjust people.Just as he was about to say something, Claire spoke."But I don't think Nora deserves such a treatment. After seeing her conduct, I think I'll release her in... one or ten years."Davis raised both of his hands and gave double thumbs-up, causing Claire to smilingly shake her head.She didn't feel sorry at all because she felt that these people deserved it.For the grievances they caused to her entire family, killing wasn't an exaggeration! Compared to that, letting them off with their properties and wealth transferred to her was indeed merciful.This also served to boost her own family's strength.However, Davis still remained excited and flabbergasted.He had sent a soul transmission to his mother at the time of the wealth transaction, telling her to acquire the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House! But, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim refused, stating that it was his ancestor's property.Knowing that it was a failure, he sent her a soul transmission and told her to take the entire Spirit Attribute Sources Hall.Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim shot a look at him and stared at him before somehow agreeing.He didn't know why but he could tell that it probably had something to do with Nora Alstreim!Nevertheless, the Spirit Attribute Sources inside the Verdant Alstreim Treasure House belonged to him now! It belonged to his mother in name, but still... it technically belonged to him now as he knew that his mother would let him take anything from it.'Spirit Attribute Sources... Here I come!' Davis inwardly danced in joy.Screw selling it to others! He was going to use them to strengthen himself and his own people. The first thing he would do is take them off the shelves by sealing the Spirit Attribute Sources Hall!But before that..."Father..." Claire called out, her melodious voice and her expression tinged with countless emotions as she looked at Edgar Alstreim!Edgar Alstreim's expression trembled as he wryly smiled at her victorious actions.His daughter had truly come back!
