Versatile Mage: Summoning Black Dragon, the pinnacle of divine power

Chapter 235 The Conflict of the Knights' Hall
……

"By the way, you're back just in time. The Snow Festival is coming soon, and the Year of Titan will be just around the corner. Because of some of your previous actions, several families that were originally responsible for defending against Titan attacks are now making excuses not to participate in this matter."

After spending a few days with Leng Qing in Athens, and just returning to the Temple of the Goddess, Asha's Ruya came to give Caesar something to do again.

"What did I do this time?" Caesar asked, puzzled.

“Do you remember the ball during the goddess selection ceremony?” Asharea asked.

"Several important family representatives who attended the ball were kicked out by you. Fortunately, the ball was mostly attended by people from the temple, so the matter was suppressed and did not spread. Otherwise, they might have broken with the temple."

The families that can participate in the goddess selection ceremony are those that have guarded the Parthenon for hundreds, even thousands of years. Many of them hold positions in the Knights' Hall, Faith Hall, and Goddess Hall of the Parthenon. Among them, the Turs family is the most important, and even the real goddess has to give them some respect.

This was not only because the Turs family held immense power in the temple, but also because they had guarded the temple for a thousand years and possessed a very prestigious status.

But even this family of Tulls was thrown out of the meeting hall by Caesar like thugs, punched and kicked.

If the Queen Mother hadn't spent time and effort appeasing those families afterward, the temple would have been torn to pieces by Caesar!

This guy is completely reckless!

"A ball?" Caesar recalled.

"Oh, those idiots, if it weren't for the bad influence they would have had, I would have killed them."

Asha's eye twitched. "My divine prince, do you know who they are?"

“I know, isn’t he just a fool who thinks he’s all that because his ancestors made contributions to the temple?” Caesar said.

"Yes, their ancestors paid countless prices for the stability of the temple, but they also received benefits in return from the temple."

"It's one thing to put on an act for others, but what's the point of putting on an act for me?"

“If they don’t want to continue cooperating with the temple, that’s fine. The Snow Festival is coming soon, so let’s notify them to come over.”

Azharia sighed, "What if they don't come?"

“Not coming? Then never come,” Caesar said.

"The Titans will soon be gone, and Parthenon will no longer need them."

"Are you trying to kill me after I've served my purpose?" Asha Ruya said.

“I gave them the opportunity to see how they choose,” Caesar said.

“Okay.” Asha’s Riyadh said no more.

No matter how much he acts silly and cute in normal times, when it comes to serious matters, Caesar always makes everyone realize that he was ultimately taught by Izusa!

……

"Asha's Yaya just sent out invitations to all the hidden clans in Yuri's name for a gathering at the upcoming Snow Festival."

At the top of Goddess Peak, at Izusa's residence, Merora brought the relevant news immediately.

"The Hidden Clan?" Yi Zhisha put down her teacup.

"What's the purpose?"

“It must be related to the Titan Year following the Snow Festival,” Merora said.

“Yuri offended representatives of several families during the Goddess Election Ceremony, including the powerful hidden clan of the Turs family in the Mediterranean. Because of this, the Knights Hall had a lot of opinions about His Highness the Divine Child. However, the appearance of the Black Dragon Emperor suppressed some of them. But the Turs family’s reputation in the Knights Hall is still too high. In addition, they have made great contributions to the temple. Yuri’s actions have somewhat chilled the hearts of those elders.”

"Hehe!" Izusa couldn't help but laugh.

"Disheartened? Is this kind of joke even a valid reason?" "The Queen Mother mentioned this before, but Yuri didn't respond," Merora said.

"Many of the hidden clans have strong opinions about Yuri taking power; they are worried..."

"Are you worried he'll follow the same path as me?" Yizhisha said.

“Mm.” Merola nodded.

Although Caesar usually likes to act silly and cute, when it comes to handling these matters, he is even better than Izusa!

The feeling that Yi Zhisha's wrist brought to everyone was a chilling fear, making them unable to eat or sleep, while Caesar's direct violence made those people dare not close their eyes!
"What does the Queen Mother mean?" Izusa asked.

“The Queen Mother still thinks these conflicts should be reconciled,” Merola said.

“If we handle this matter forcefully, it will not be in line with the temple’s purpose. Moreover, the elders of the Hidden Clan are worried that Yuri will discard them after he has truly taken power.”

“If we’re not careful, it could cause those families who support the temple to feel insecure, and even lead to the temple falling apart.”

Yi Zhisha paused for a moment, "It is indeed a bit troublesome, but do you think, given his temper, it's possible for him to back down?"

“Impossible,” Merola said.

Caesar would only yield in domestic matters, not in foreign ones.

"Did the Casa clan invite you?" Izusa asked.

“No, this gathering has nothing to do with them,” Merola said.

“Invite them, and also invite the Victoria clan,” Izusa said.

"It's time for them to give their opinion."

"By the way, how's the Knights' Hall doing lately?"

“After Norman returned and regained power, most of the Knights’ Hall are now on his side,” Merola said.

“Norman…who did he choose?” Isa asked.

“Norman said he still supports the Son of God, and that this is Ventai’s choice,” Merola said.

After Wentai's death, most of his support shifted to Caesar, the son of God, and some to Asha's.

However, Asha's reputation is not good. Not only outsiders, but also many people within the temple have opinions about her.

They believe that Azharia attained her current status by sleeping with the god.

"What does the following mean?" Izusa asked.

"Norman has been gone for so long, how many of the Golden Knights still listen to him?"

“Less than half,” Merola said.

"Most importantly, several titled knights, including Poseidon, have objections to Yuri's handling of the representatives of the Hidden Clan. At the upcoming gathering, those knights may take the opportunity to cause trouble."

Although Caesar had the Black Dragon Emperor under his control, the Titan threat was too widespread, and no matter how powerful the Black Dragon Emperor was, he could not keep all the Titan giants out.

Moreover, the Black Dragon Emperor's destructive power is too great; once it takes action, the resulting consequences will be equally difficult to manage.

The way this matter is handled also affects the opinions of many noble families behind Parthenon regarding the Divine Child. If this Divine Child, who is about to take power, is too violent, no one will dare to continue working for him.
