The Bloodline System (Web Novel)chapter 336: gradier xanatus's advice to angy

"The funniest part is, the neighborhood was put in danger by him, and you still came to save him instead of the neighborhood... Hypocrites ptoi!" Gustav spat out after finishing his statement and began to walk away.

Angy stared at his back with an expression of sadness written all over her face.

"Take him back to the tower," Gradier Xanatus commanded.

The two officers nodded and leaped upwards before disappearing into the darkness of night with Endric's unconscious body.

Angy was still standing in place while Gradier Xanatus moved closer to her and stood on her left.

"You did what you felt was right... But what you feel is right sometimes might be incorrect," Gradier Xanatus voiced out.

"Gradier Xanatus, do you mean..." Before Angy could complete her statement, Gradier Xanatus interrupted.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it was incorrect to inform us, but I'm also not saying it was the correct decision..."

Angy was starting to get confused with Gradier Xanatus words, but she still listened attentively.

"You did this because of him, so let me ask you... If that wasn't his brother and it happened to be someone else, would you still call us, or would you leave him to do as he pleases?" Gradier Xanatus asked.

"Well... I... I... I wouldn't interfere if it was someone else," Angy responded.

Because to him, this boy, Endric, is just another person to him. He seemed to have cut all ties off from his family. He doesn't even bear their name anymore." Gradier Xanatus stated.

Angy's eyes widened in realisation after hearing that.

"In this case, you wronged him even though you were trying to do him right," Gradier Xanatus added.

"No, that wasn't my intention..." Tears rolled down her eyes as she spoke.

"How do the both of you happen to be so close...? Your personalities are polar opposites," Gradier Xanatus wondered out loud as he sighed.

"One thing you have to understand now, Angy, is that... To remain beside someone like him, you have become similar in nature and powerful, or you'll just hold him back... Either way, someone is going to get hurt or end up dead in the future if your personalities continue to contradict each other.

It would be fine if you were moving with someone similar to you since your method of doing things will also be similar you won't have problems. However, this is someone who shows no mercy to his enemies while you still think twice before making a decision on whether the person deserves to be given another chance or not.

You will eventually drag him down, and if ahem, according to what I've seen," Gradier Xanatus coughed twice before resuming.

"According to what I've seen, if he ahem, you and him become something... The possibility of you dragging him back and becoming his weakness is very high. Instead, you should try to be an addition to his strength just like how you did in the Caskia Ruins," Gradier Xanatus stopped speaking at this point.

Silence reigned for a few seconds as Angy reflected on Gradier Xanatus's words.

"...But wouldn't he have been disqualified from MBO camp if I had let him?" Angy asked.

window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})"Oh that, well, nothing would have happened... To tell you the truth, the higher-ups want him, so there's no way he'd be disqualified. They'll just place some kind of restriction on him or something..." Gradier Xanatus explained.

"Then why did you...?" Angy asked with a confused expression, but Gradier Xanatus cut her short before she could complete her question.

"Yes, those are the rules, but I only mentioned them so he wouldn't get too cocky and start acting how he likes... It's necessary for him to hold back sometimes too, which is why I don't feel like you're completely wrong with your decision, but you did it for the wrong reason," Gradier Xanatus stated.

"Now off you go. I need to inspect this area," Gradier Xanatus said while tapping Angy's shoulder.

Angy nodded, "Thank you for the words of advice," She said with a look of appreciation and started walking forward.

Swwoooooosshh!

Angy sped forward into the direction of the neighborhood, and in a few seconds, she had completely disappeared from Gradier Xanatus's line of sight.

Gradier Xanatus started walking around the place and noted the evidence of battle.

Trees toppled and smashed into smaller bits. Small craters in different positions and a wide trail of deep lines parting the ground.

"This doesn't look like the battle scene of two Zulu ranked mixedbloods... Most serial-ranked mixedbloods aren't even this powerful. That kid Endric is only twelve years old, and yet... So much potential within them both, but they also happen to be quite problematic," Gradier Xanatus sighed while muttering.

After checking around for a few more minutes, he made a call.

window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})"Yes, it's me,"

-"How did it go?"

"He was unable to kill the kid. I could only delay them for some time since the girl made a call,"

-"Oh, I see... Quite the bummer,"

"Why do you want the boy gone? I know you can avert trouble for Gustav but are you not concerned about him turning into a mindless killer?"

-"He will never turn into a mindless killer... I smack him back to his senses if he does. I want to make sure no one stands in his way on his rise to the top of the organization. He has to be the one to get rid of the threats himself while I'll assist him from the shadows,"

"I understand, Miss... I'll keep giving my support,"

-"You already did a good job by hiding the truth about his multiple abilities and also destroying the evidence that he appeared on the last floors of the tower. I'm grateful,"

"No problem, young Miss, I am quite fond of him myself... I feel it would be better if you were his companion instead of the young girl..."

-"Huh? Companion? No, he's too young for me, but if he does manage to become more powerful than I am in the future and both of us happen to not be taken, I may consider it if that's what he wants..."

"Erm, young Miss, you didn't let me finish. I was just lamenting about the fact that you're not among his peers that are being enlisted into the MBO camp. He seems so similar to you, so I felt the both of you would have made a better team than the young girl he's currently moving with,"

-"Oh, you meant team... Ok,"

"What did you think I meant, young miss?"

-"Goodbye..."
