"I volunteered to speak." Askala did not miss the opportunity, standing next to the Main Leader's seat signified that he could determine what the Main Leader determined. "First Brother, may I speak?"
If Arkas sided with Eris, he would ban and if he opposed Eris, he nodded.
"Do it, my sister," Arkas replied after nodding.
"Nine years ago, Eris killed his wife who intended to betray Narendra" Askala said loudly and Eris was the one who heard him the most. "I know Nernia as my lovely sister-in-law, more than Arista. Well, he's acting a little too arrogant but I like him."
Eris knew it was because Nernia and Askala were kind. And Eris knew that Askala did not really like Nernia.
"What I want to say, the first murder in this residence, if it ignores Eirene's death, is the murder Eris committed on his wife." Askala folded his hands. "It's all for the sake of the rules. And speaking of Eirene, she's picking up death by the rules. For discipline. Then now, the guy over there, the guy who started it all, is talking that he wants to change the rules?"
"Roxanne is not Narendra's wife, Askala." Eris answered him calmly even though Eris actually knew he was weak in argument. "He was the wife of Elios whose Narendra name had been revoked. She's Yasa's wife."
"Right and didn't Narendra have a rule that Narendra's wife should only come from the ranch? Taking Elios's wife did not violate the rule 'Narendra's wife should only be for their husband' but it clearly violated Narendra's wife's rules of origin."
He's correct.
"You Second Young Master, Brother Eris. You were the one who had been pressuring Arkas to keep abiding by the rules and now look at you. Coming here for a woman dumped by her husband?"
That's also he's right.
Eris has been mentally torturing Arkas for rules. Eris knows how much Arkas feels about her for Nernia's death. Eris hears Arkas crying because of Nernia, because of Eris's eyes, and because of the many things Eris stresses indirectly.
Even so ....
"I apologize to Arkas for my pressure" he said bluntly. "But I'm standing here because I want Roxanne to be my wife."
"I refuse" replied Askala. "I rejected your statement or your apology before you admitted that Nernia's death, the loss of your eyes and so many other things were wrong. Admit that you made the wrong decision."
Askala is a really shitty opponent.
None of his decisions.
"Then I also want to propose something" Elios said, just silently watching. "Sanya, my wife."
Arkas's face immediately fogged up hearing the name. He glanced at his father who seemed to want to know why a new name had appeared.
If the Chief Leader knew that Sanya was a descendant of Abkariza, then Sanya would be recognized as Narendra. But if Elios tells Sanya that he wants to steal Eirene's body, Elios and his wife will be executed without exception.
"Eris took Sanya away from me as well, Uncle," said Elios who knew Arkas' worries. "And Sanya .. she connected nasab with Iaros, son of Trika Narendra."
The Main Leader's face for the first time displayed a shocked expression. And so did Askala who did not know about it.
"I guess now I should mention that Narendra's Second Young Master, Eris Oriona Narendra, did an overly brutal act of organizing things without wisdom."
Arkas jerks. So Elios won't mention Sanya's mistake? Sure oes. Elios would have wanted to protect Diane from the death penalty. But ....
"Just want to kill Arkas."
Everyone was fixated on the figure of the woman speaking in her wheelchair.
Roxanne, the woman who had just witnessed that since then, spewed out the thing that the three parties were trying to hide in dispute.
"I beg you to speak, sir." Roxanne follows the way Askala asked for permission earlier. "As for Sanya, the boy wanted to kill Arkas and Eris, also he said that he wanted Elios to lead this family."
The faces of Eris, Arkas and Elios instantly pale for their own reasons.
