YM778.TV Chapter 546 The Highest Sea
’Why did I pick to come here as Rei and not Kanae?’
She was regretting her choice of coming here as Rei because she had to wear the cloth that covered her face almost all the time. She didn’t dare to open it while eating, so she had to sneak the food from below them little by little. If not because of the cloth, she would surely eat at a fast rate and clean them up.
They were all very delicious!
As she couldn’t change her current decision, she just did whatever she could to eat faster. The surrounding people around her didn’t pay much attention to her as they were busy discussing the matter of the clan.
\\"Boss, we have just received the invitation letter from the government. Don’t you think it is the time for us to respond?\\" One of the elders spoke out his opinion. Today was the time for them to celebrate and also cleared up some matters with their clan head. The most pressing point that many of them worried about was surely about the government.
\\"I have already given my answer,\\" Kevin replied coolly. For him, the answer would always be the same. He would never accept them in his life.
The elder held a worried expression. \\"But Boss, if we don’t comply with their demand, won’t it be a loss for us?\\"
They had heard a lot about the backing that the government had, so they knew very well the force behind them were not to be underestimated. Although their clan is strong, there was nothing wrong with trying to latch onto a bigger thigh. After all, there was no saying when they would be able to get the chance for this anymore.
Kevin’s gaze remained indifferent. If he was just a foolish young man, he would surely be tempted by the hidden secret behind the government. But he didn’t have the slightest bit of interest in them anymore. What he had seen from the government and their real project caused him to feel deep hatred from the bottom of his heart.
\\"There will always be something we lose and get from a deal,\\" Kevin said calmly. \\"For this matter, it looks as if we’re on the losing end, but it is not the case.\\"
Megara snorted when he heard what Kevin said. \\"Why are you so afraid of their invitation? The power that they offer to us is far more than what you can possibly achieve in this life, Clan Head.\\"
The two young men exchanged murderous gaze with one another. For Megara, the chance that the government gave to him was a chance in a million years. He had seen the people from the government could do and it astonished him. To get power like them, he had to follow them.
For Kevin, the invitation that the government extended was nothing but a trap. It was the ultimatum that they gave for the last time before destroying the large family, clan, or anything else. Even if he decided to follow, only bleak future awaited him.
\\"There are things that we better never set our eyes upon. Getting satisfied with what you have and try to achieve things that is within your capabilities is far better than trying to get things that you will never achieve.\\"
Megara frowned. He glanced at Kevin with hatred. It was always the same every single time. The power that Kevin held even without the power from the medicine baffled him.
Indeed, for someone powerful like Kevin, it was unnecessary to go through all the troubles. However, many people longed for more power, more talent, more intelligence, and much more. They could never achieve them normally, so the only option would be the shortcut that the government offered.
\\"You’re someone far beyond the standard of normal, Clan Head. Do you think that everyone has the same opinion as you?\\"
Kevin’s gaze remained unperturbed. \\"It’s fine to have a far etched dream. But if you’re only fixated on the long term goal that’s almost impossible to achieve, you will lose sight of things around you.\\"
He had lost a lot of people just because of this position. His ideal goal was something that could only be achieved in a long time, so he had to take step by step towards the goal and at the same time, learned much more. He was still a young kid when he started this bloody path, but he had learned to accept that it would not be so easy.
Any shortcut would only lead to more problems ahead because there was no shortcut without payment.
There must be something they lost in order to gain things at a rate faster than normal.
\\"I can never understand your sight, Clan Head, but I wish for the best for the clan,\\" Megara remarked.
\\"I’m also doing the same.\\"
The two of them exchanged murderous gaze once more. Their opinions differed very much, allowing them to clash with one another extremely often.
\\"Come on, this is the celebration party. Can’t you two enjoy things a bit?\\" Patrick yawned. \\"If you want to turn this into a debate between the two of you, I won’t hinder you, but not now.\\"
The two of them exchanged glances. There was still murderous intent within their eyes, but they masked it in the next second. The elders around them felt rather helpless for they understood that these two were like fire and water.
They could never stay together.
\\"I’m not debating, Elder Patrick,\\" Megara lifted up a cup. \\"If that’s how you see it, let me punish myself by drinking.\\"
\\"It’s up to you,\\" Patrick yawned and waved his hand.
Megara nodded and drank the wine. His eyes were still eyeing Kevin. He sneered internally. He always hated this young man. Even though Kevin’s father allowed him to get into the clan back when he was still a child, he couldn’t accept it when they told him that he couldn’t reach the greatest seat.
He wanted that seat and power.
And for that, he’s willing to sacrifice everything.
