Chapter 319 The Consequences Of A Bad Choice
When Magnus jumped out of the window of his room in that hotel, all the elders and the patriarch of House Trapka, who was there, noticed his attitude.
They were watching him, as they were already considering handing this person over to the Becker family to avoid deeper problems with this organization.
The Becker family could not only hurt them badly at the Province Conference but force alliances of House Trapka with other powers to end and attack them in other ways.
In short, since House Becker was more substantial than their family, they were in great danger of having one of their members in the cross hairs of such an organization!
So even though Magnus was one of their strongest of them, losing him might be the best choice for this family not to be weakened by an incident he had initiated alone.
So everyone was already watching him, as he suspected. And when he acted, they immediately left their rooms to pursue him!
But to Magnus\' misfortune, not only his family members were after him!
When the Becker family discovered he was the enemy behind the person who attacked Elke\'s carriage, endangering her life, that organization had already placed people to watch Magnus.
Thus, several individuals from House Becker were in the vicinity of that hotel, and when Magnus tried to flee, they immediately realized the problem and began a chase!
"Quick, go warn the patriarch!" One man said to one of his companions.
They were all 2nd stage cultivators. But even if they could hold off the desperate Magnus, they had already noticed the Trapka elders starting to chase that person.
In this case, since that man was not sure if they would be able to arrest the enemy for bringing him to justice, he ordered the weakest there to go and alert the patriarch!
At the same time, it did not take Magnus long to realize that not only were his colleagues chasing him, but other people he did not know were too!
\'Damn it!\'
\'Is it the damn Becker family?\' He wondered, confirming his greatest fears, as he associated his family\'s action with this other organization.
\'Bastards! They are in collusion against me!\'
"Hell!"
"This is all the fault of that damned Lothur!" He shouted as the few people on the streets of this city now noticed the movements in the alleys of the surroundings.
\'Where is that damned thing? Is he on the Frost estate?\' Magnus began to think of dangerous things.
Suppose his family was in collusion with House Becker. In that case, he would die or have his cultivation destroyed. That way, he would instead fall down while taking with him the little bastard who had caused all this for him!
\'Just you wait, you little worm! I won\'t fall alone!\' He ran towards the Frost estate.
Such a place would be terrible to break into since Mabel, a Transcendent, lived there. But if he were quick, by the time this person caught up with him, he would have killed the little bastard who had caused him so much trouble!
And with that, this nighttime chase continued, quickly making its way to the vicinity of the Frost estate!
"Where is he going? Isn\'t he fleeing the city?" One of the Trapka family elders chasing Magnus asked, noticing the strange path such a person was taking.
The patriarch sensed that something wrong was happening, and so he shouted. "Magnus, stop what you are doing! Do you want to cause even more trouble for the family?"
"Damn it!"
"What kind of elder are you to cause trouble for the family and try to run away?" He asked in a tone full of contempt and anger.
"Humph!"
"That\'s easy for you to say! You\'re not the one being threatened!" He said in response, still running, already in the vicinity of the Frost family.
Another elder then said. "Magnus, don\'t be foolish! What you are doing can do great harm to the family!"
"That\'s right. If you surrender, you might be able to stay alive!" Another person shouted, finally seeing that that man was going to invade House Frost.
"Fuck you!" He shouted before leaping toward one of the walls of the Frost estate, ignoring the guards and surveillance formations in that area.
He knew this would alert the people on that property, but it would take a while before those strong enough to kill him would show up.
Thus, he invaded that place without hesitation, scanning the surroundings for the mortals on that estate, particularly in the nobles\' area.
He could not sense Lothur\'s cultivation like all the other cultivators. Still, since this young man was Viktoria\'s husband, he should be one of the few \'mortals\' in the most luxurious part of this estate.
Thus, he promptly went towards the buildings with the most significant number of cultivators near the end of the first stage and who seemed to be sleeping at the moment.
Lothur should be in an area of residences or dormitories, so Magnus could only focus his attention where cultivators were sleeping.
\'Where is he? Show yourself, bastard!\' He wondered, scanning the surrounding area for mortals.
Meanwhile, a dozen Frost family guards were already beginning to chase and attack him, shocked at the audacity of this person invading this estate.
As for Magnus\' pursuers, both from the Trapka family and from House Becker, they all stopped their pursuit, not invading that property.
They knew very well that messing with the Frost family was not easy. It would be terrible to explain that they did not want to offend that family by invading such an estate.
So they could only stand outside, shocked at the audacity of that man.
But the Trapka patriarch could not help but turn pale with fear at the thought that the Frost family might target them because of Magnus\' act.
The Frost family had many enemies and was in decline. But this was not a harmless power. Besides, even if the local rules prevented assassinations within the city, this was not valid for self-defense!
With that, as sounds of battle came from inside that estate, the patriarch was sweating in fear.
\'Damn it!\'
\'Why did this idiot cause all this?\'
...
Meanwhile, inside the Frost estate...
Magnus had already fought off a dozen opponents, having fended them off as best he could while searching for Lothur.
But after three minutes, all the mortals he had encountered in his path were irrelevant people.
"Where is he? Where are you, Lothur?" He shouted madly. "Come out from where you are hiding, you bastard!"
"Today, I will kill you!"
He looked from one side of the corridor to the other, seeing the Frost guards launching spiritual attacks in his direction. At the same time, the weaker servants and nobles fled in panic.
But as he despaired, trying to find Lothur, suddenly, a powerful aura spread throughout that estate, restraining most of the people there.
Magnus returned to his senses by sensing something similar to an increase in gravity and returned to his senses. He realized that he had made a grave mistake!
"Transcendent!" He shouted when he was already surrounded by many guards and could not even move, given Mabel\'s spiritual pressure.
\'I\'m finished! And I didn\'t even manage to kill that damned wretch!\' He felt hopeless just before he screamed madly, with no more hope.
