Under The Veil of Night Chapter 411 Battle Against Merion Clan

Jon's Mansion

In this place, a completely different incident has occurred.

Vena was making her way to the mansion furiously. She heard the news about Jon and Sheila's marriage a few hours ago. Because of the matter with the prison break a few days ago, she was busy taking care of the business that got involved with the recent attack. It never crossed her mind that Jon would get married with someone else so quick, especially with the other party being a widow.

"Jon, come out!" Vena yelled as she walked inside the mansion. The guards were helpless as they tucked their tail behind their back. Facing this young woman, no one dared to do anything.

From one of the rooms, the s.h.i.+rtless Jon walked out. His red face and unfocused eyes showed that he was still rather drunk. "What is it my dear sister? Do you want to congratulate me for my second marriage?"

"Congratulate you?" Vena was already on the verge of exploding. "Where's that wh.o.r.e that you marry? Let me beat her up so badly that you won't want to see her anymore."

"She's on the bed," Jon pointed to the room behind him.

Without waiting for permission, Vena barged into the room, shoving Jon out of the way. He saw a woman was sitting on the bed calmly with her night dress slightly torn. The woman was looking back to the incoming woman with a slight smile on her face.

"Oh, if it's not sister in law," Sheila's smile turned warm. "What brings you come here so early in the morning?"

"You b*tch! What did you do to seduce my brother?"

"Ah, he's the one who seduce me first," Sheila winked. "Isn't that right, darling?"

"Yes, yes," Jon admitted as he walked to the nearby table. There were several wine ready for him to enjoy.

Vena was looking towards the two of them furiously. How could she not be clear of Sheila's intention? Even though the position of the family head would fall to her in the future, she had to take care of Jon's financial too. This would mean that this woman was living off a leisure life on top of her hard work.

Could she accept it?

OF COURSE NOT!

"You dare to say that? I'll report this to your previous parents in law. They won't be happy to hear this!"

"Oh? Just do that, you stealer. The position of the family head belongs to my husband. You're the one taking it from him."

"What? You marry my useless brother because of his inheritance?"

"At least, I'm better than someone who steals it from him without giving anything in return."

"You @#$^&*!"

"$%^&*()_)(*&^%"

As the two of them continued their argument, their language turned even harsher to the point that servants were unable to stand on their feet calmly. To think that these innocent looking women could speak such words, they were truly enlightened. Neither one of them dared to move from their place as they stood rooted there, not knowing what they should do.

On the side, Jon was simply enjoying his wine without care for his sister or newly wedded wife. For him, all that matter was this bottle and his contentment.

…

Ryukalin Clan Headquarters

"Boss, the number of people from Merion Clan who comes here increases rapidly," Neo informed with a displeased tone.

Kevin nodded his head. He already knew that the clan was invading their place for the past few days. It was quite obvious from their movement lately. It seemed as if the clan was ready for an all out battle even though they were at disadvantageous in terms of number.

He stood up slowly. "Prepare to fight. They're coming here."

"Boss, you mean, they're coming to our headquarters?" Neo's eyes widened.

Kevin didn't answer. He merely walked to the side and took out his own sword. Because the size of his sword was rather big, he rarely brought it when he went away. Only his gun was accompanying him most of the time. Now, it was the time for him to use them again.

"Boss, should we send more people to protect Lady Celine and Lady Alice?" Neo asked hesitantly. Due to their parents forcing, the two of them were staying in this place. If not because of that, Kevin would never allow the two of them to come here.

"No need. They can take care of themselves."

"I understand."

The guards outside were doing their work as usual, moving here and there. The moment the bell rang, they went into fighting mode. Their eyes were looking towards the wall that protected this headquarters. From the gate, several men suddenly attacked them.

On the right courtyard where Celine stayed, she was startled to hear the sudden sound of fighting. She abruptly stood up and peered outside from the window. The sight of fight entered her eyes.

"Wha… what is happening?" She asked with fear filled her voice. This place was supposedly the safest place in Ryukalin Clan's territory. What made them come here so suddenly?

"Miss, it seems that people from the Merion Clan manage to make their way here," one of the guards that belonged to the Ryukalin Clan and not her hidden clan told her with calm tone. He was irritated because they tasked him to guard this little pampered princess. If not because of the hierarchy in the clan, he would surely make sure that he didn't get this job.

Celine moved back from the window. Even in her clan, she was always being protected by her father's men. She could fight rather well, but not when it came to real fighting skill.

Suddenly, the wall was broken.

CLANG!

"Princess, take cover."

"Ye… Yes," Celine didn't take long to move behind the guards, too afraid to partic.i.p.ate in the battle.

Several men came inside to chase after her too. Even though she didn't hold the same importance as Alice, she was still quite an important member of the clan. No one would pa.s.s from this easy target.

"Miss, be careful!"

Celine saw them swing the sword against her, she quickly ducked below. A guard stood to block the attack and got wounded. Blood splattered around, including to Celine's clothes.

"Blood…" Celine muttered. The man that attacked her was killed and fell to the ground near her. Seeing the horrible scene, Celine's mind blanked and she fell unconscious.

"Miss!" the guards sent by her father was alarmed. They already knew about this little princess fear of blood and dead people from long ago. Unfortunately, the people from the Ryukalin Clan didn't know and treated her with the same treatment as they would treat other important member. After all, for them, this kind of thing was rather common.

The guard who was already annoyed from before looked towards the sorry state that Celine had. He sighed internally.

'Why should he guard this useless princess?'

It would be better for him to be an ordinary guard rather than this annoying and useless princess. If she wanted to take the position to be the clan head's wife, she should have some good points and not this useless.
