Book 10: Chapter 101: Told You (2)

No one knew what to say. However, somehow, these words made them sigh more a breath of relief than anything else.

If this Dyon Sacharro was raised up on his own by some unknown Sacharro Clan, it was too much to accept. But, by this Heavenly Sprite’s words, there seemed to be a deep relationship between the Unblemished One and this child. He might even by the Unblemished One’s disciple. In that case, his power was far more acceptable.

But after this relief, a stronger bitterness set in.

If what this woman said was true, then that meant that all of this might be happening under the Unblemished One’s tacit agreement. In that case, it’s possible that these matters were even more complicated than they once believed.

“What do your Heavenly Sprites mean by this? Is this supposed to be an act of war? And why do you seemingly have so many hidden forces? Since when did the Unblemished One raise so many hidden geniuses? What intentions do you have?”

A hoarse voice that had been quiet to now spoke, cutting through the atmosphere with an oppressive, domineering aura.

These words were like poison, raising the skepticism within the meeting space. However, the Heavenly Sprites didn’t back down.

“What do we mean by this? What did your Armament Sprites mean by secretly sending five Blade Clans to the Tower Quadrants? Maybe if it wasn’t for the descent of the Ancient Battlefield, we still wouldn’t know about them.

“And you.” The Heavenly Sprite shifted her gaze once more. “What did your Spiritual Sprites mean by snatching the Star Clan that was once under the umbrella of our Heavenly Sprites? Not only did you snatch them away, when you had ripped all the secrets you could from them, you humiliated them, all before sending them off to the Tower Quadrants as well.”

Even when it seemed the atmosphere couldn’t become tenser, the heavy air only grew.

The story of the Star Clan was one Dyon had a marginal understanding of, mostly because he didn’t care much for it. But, he was aware that they had suffered a terrible humiliation in the past.

The dividing line between Heavenly and Spiritual Sprites wasn’t as clear cut as the differences between the other Sprites. As a result, sometimes the Spiritual Sprites took advantage of Luna’s loose requirements of her subordinates to snatch useful Clans for themselves.

Earthen Sprites were known for their oneness with the land. Among their number there were Mineral Sprites like Little Rain who had still yet to awaken from absorbing the fire sprite in the Golden Flame Mystical World.

However, Mineral Sprites like Little Rain were actually quite rare. Among the Earthen Sprites, only Higher Existence Earthen could wield control over any and all minerals like Little Rain. Of course, this was also because the so-called sprites were actually only half sprite while Little Rain was a full sprite.

Simply put, the Earthen Sprites usually had specific minerals, ores and metals they had better control over.

The Oracle Sprites were known for prediction abilities. This didn’t necessarily mean looking into the future, but they had great calculative minds. They were a race known for being on par and often even more intelligent than the Sapientia.

Some of their greater geniuses could parse the future into probabilities, but there was no certainty in the lines they drew, which was why the Heavenly Sprite dismissed Higher Existence Oracle so blatantly.

The Armament Sprites were the most straight forward. They wielded the greatest military power of the Sprite Alliance, coupled with the fact their weapon affinities usually made them abrasive, and the result was quite an overbearing group of sprites.

Finally, there were the Heavenly and Spiritual Sprites. Their differences were difficult to find.

They were both sprites who wielded various energy affinities, but there was a subtle difference. Heavenly Sprites were more like elementals. They could control fire, wind, water, etc, with ease. However, there were also rarer affinities such as space within them as well. In the past, the Star Clan’s star power energy was among these.

Spiritual Sprites, however, wielded more vaguely defined energies. For example, demonic will, the Sapientia Clan’s abacus will, energies that were difficult to place appropriate labels upon.

As the term ‘Spiritual’ denotes, usually these energies had less of a direct impact on strength and more of an auxiliary one. But, this still wasn’t the case 100% of them time.

The short of it was that these vague lines often led to disputes between the two factions as to which Clans were under their jurisdiction and which ones weren’t.

Star Power was a vague energy that was hard to categorize and had both direct and auxiliary benefits, so it was no wonder this Clan’s affiliations came under fire.

Still, had the Star Clan simply refused the advances of the Spiritual Sprites, even if they were a hundred times bolder, they wouldn’t have dared pursue their ridiculous dispute. After all, since there wasn’t any certain answer, why was there a need for the Star Clan to switch sides?

However, the Star Clan’s ancestors chose wrongly. Not only did their poor decision result in the downfall of their Clan and their humiliation, it was this very betrayal that exposed the secrets Luna had held tightly to herself for so long.

This bad blood had been brewing for a long time… Whether these matters were finally settled now, or if they would boil over into all out war… only time could tell.
