CHAPTER 453: CONFLICT (5)

If it was not because of either of these, no one would pay attention to him.

He’s the White Family Patriarch’s son and because of that, the White Family couldn’t afford to neglect him. And his sister, who’s also the White Family Patriarch’s daughter, was also not given attention because the White Family felt that her method was too different from theirs.

They could not accept her.

Aren could see that the White Family Patriarch didn’t even pay much attention to his sister.

No, it was more like the White Family Patriarch didn’t want to pay attention to them and instead gave out his time to Evan.

Evan became the future White Family Patriarch.

The resources given to him were also very abundant.

Aren himself also got a lot of resources, but Aren understood that they would never truly allow him to become the White Family Patriarch.

Because this position is reserved to his cousin.

His sister didn’t seem to care about it.

The White Family members might ignore Aya a lot, but Aya never paid attention to them and was always busy with her own business. This was something that Aren had also noticed.

She didn’t care about the White Family Patriarch’s position.

In fact, Aren could tell that Aya purposely let the White Family Patriarch’s position fall to Evan.

But while Aya didn’t want it... Aren wanted it!

He wanted it so badly.

Why can’t it be his turn when he’s the White Family Patriarch’s son?

Because of his weak body?

Because he was not strong enough?

Aren felt that his journey over the years was really difficult. No one cares for him and the White Family Patriarch would only come to him to check his health. It was as if the White Family Patriarch hoped that he could be cured.

But this was only in the beginning.

After the White Family Patriarch advanced to rank 7 and Aya left, he basically almost never came to see Aren anymore and the position of the future White Family Patriarch had been fixed on Evan’s head.

Aren understood.

It was the White Family Patriarch giving up on him.

To be honest, with Aya’s strength that she finally showed in the end, the position of the White Family Patriarch would be more suitable to fall to her head.

But they could see that she didn’t want it.

She left Wansu City and no one knew when she would return.

Not even the White Family Patriarch knew.

And since the White Family Patriarch chose to give up on him and his sister, Aren felt that the White Family has become much colder for him. He didn’t like it at all.

Living day by day, counting the days when he would die...

Aren really dislikes it.

He hoped that things could change one way or another and he hoped that there would be a chance to change everything.

This day really came.

The ghost masters arrived and Aren heard about their methods.

They basically used their own life force to feed on ghosts, fulfilling their last dream and basically making the last splash of their lives. By doing this, they would feel that their lives were more meaningful and that they have done everything possible to make their lives better.

Even if it was for a short period of time.

Because many of them were at the very bottom and had no power to do what they wanted. Becoming the ghost master would allow them to relive their dream for a short period of time. Afterwards, they would die within a few years’ time at most.

Aren’s life force was very weak.

Because he was sickly and was about to die within a few years. And seeing his own body growing weaker and weaker as time passed, Aren didn’t want the last moment of his life to be spent like this.

He wanted to do something big.

So he became a ghost master.

With his own strength that was already at rank 5 magic warrior, the mana he could use to restrain and control these ghosts were much more than many other ghost masters. After all, most ghost masters have relatively weaker talent and so on.

They were unable to control a lot of ghosts.

But Aren was different.

So he chose to directly attack the few people whom he had long wanted to attack.

"This..." Evan looked at Aren and didn’t know what to say. It was true that they were mostly remembered because of their position in the White Family. After all, it was not like people would waste their time remembering people who have no impact on their lives.

Unless they were like the White Family Patriarch.

Since he’s the patriarch, there were many people who remembered his name and so on. It was simply impossible for them not to remember him.

"To be remembered by others, I have to do something big." Aren took a deep breath and then glanced to the side. "So you all have to die."

Evan and the others followed his line of sight and saw a bloodied man walking out of the ghost realm.

This sight made them all freeze.

There were many magic warriors inside the ghost realm.

Did this person kill them all?

If that was the case, then it would be really terrifying.

’Wait, Leon...?’

Leon had just walked into the ghost realm. Did something happen?

For a moment, Evan felt anxious and really wanted to go and check.

"So there are still a few more here." the man looked at the few people in front of him indifferently.

"Have everyone died?"

"No, there are too many rank 7 magic warriors there." He waved his hand and said, "You can stay aside. Your current life force is far from enough to control these ghosts."

"Yes."

Aren stepped to the side.

The next moment the terrifying ghost aura descended once again.

This made everyone feel like they were going to die and quickly used whatever magic to protect themselves.
