"Why would Vida invite me?" Fade hesitated.
Without thinking much, Kristian said, "Fade, why are you thinking so hard? Since he invited us, you can go and have a look."
"But-" Fade still had a strange feeling.
"What are you talking about? Do you think they're going to eat us?" Kristian persuaded.
Kristian was used to looking for people to drink and learn from each other, and he usually took the initiative to organise all kinds of parties. So this time, he basically agreed without thinking about it.
"Fade, let's go!" Kristian pulled Fade and was about to go out.
But at this moment, Fedellysia came over and saw the two of them. "Kristian and Fade, here you are. My father wants to call all the personal disciples to a meeting. Please head over."
"A meeting! Why do we have a meeting at this time?" Kristian scratched his nose disappointedly.
However, since it was Harvie's request, he didn't dare to say anything.
They went to the backyard together.
When they arrived at the backyard hall, the three elders, and Izaan were already there.
After a while, all the personal disciples arrived.
Harvie scanned the crowd and said, "Since everyone is here, let's begin.”
"Today, I called you over because I want to tell you something."
The personal disciples looked at Harvie seriously.
Harvie said, "From now on, the disciples of our Autumn Lake Studio should stay away from the outside world as much as possible. If necessary, don't interact with other martial arts club members, especially those from the Silver Moon Tribe and the Southern Mount Academy."
"Do you understand?" Harvie asked.
"I understand!" Izaan cupped his hands and said.
However, some people still looked puzzled, especially Kristian. He asked, "Director, why?" "Didn't you encourage us to go out and communicate more before? Only by gaining more experience can we enhance our strength? Why did you suddenly change your stance now?"
Izaan said, "Kristian, since Master and all the instructors have decided, there must be a reason. As disciples, we just have to obey them. Why ask so many questions?"
"But-" Kristian frowned.
"Kristian, are you questioning the director and the elders?" Izaan asked.
"Izaan, I don't mean that. I just want to ask—" Kristian said.
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Harvie waved his hand and said, "Stop arguing. Let me continue."
The two of them quieted down and everyone turned to look at Harvie.
Harvie said, "Yesterday, the three city lords attended the mayor's meeting of Double City. The three elders and I were also invited to attend."
Hearing that, everyone nodded. They thought of the scene of the four of them returning with gloomy faces the previous day.
"Did something happen at the City Lord's meeting?" Fade guessed.
Harvie continued, "During the meeting, the Silvertooth mayor told us about the latest matter."
"Just two days ago, a Fire Crystal mine outside the city was attacked by an unknown person, but half of the mine was destroyed. What's worse, more than 50 people were killed in the mine."
"And you should know who the 'human warriors' are. Silvertooth's request was directly rejected by Renzo, resulting in a fight during the meeting, but they didn't achieve anything in the end. They parted unhappily." Hearing that, everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
At the same time, even the slowest Kristian also realised the other meaning.
The so-called "human warrior" referred to a group of people in Double City. They didn't agree with the concept that everyone in the city had. They thought that humans were superior to demonic beasts and half-demons.
Therefore, they were usually very unfriendly to half-demons and demonic beasts. In addition to bottling them and discrimination, they even took action. The most extreme of them even killed demonic beasts and half-demons for no reason.
Of course, on the other hand, there were similar "demonic beast warrior" organizations.
As for Southern Mount Academy and the Silver Moon Tribe, which were the two major martial arts schools, because of their own special ideas, many people in the martial arts school had similar ideas. They even joined the human and demonic beast warrior organizations.
Silvertooth claimed that the human warriors were responsible for the murder of the demonic beasts in the Fire Crystal mine, and proposed to investigate it.
From Renzo's point of view, this was equivalent to a direct investigation of the Southern Mount Academy. Renzo would not agree, so they quarreled.
At the end of the day, the incident that happened in the mining lode was nothing to the two city lords.
However, behind this small matter, the conflict and confrontation between the human and demonic beasts in the City of Double City was the real issue.
Thinking of that, everyone was solemn.
Harvie sighed and said, "The conflict between Renzo and Silvertooth is getting more and more intense. They won't give up. No one knows what they'll do next."
"The Autumn Lake Studio doesn't have the ability to solve their conflict. Therefore, we can only protect ourselves and not get caught in this crossfire."
"That's why I'm asking you to stay at home as much as possible. Don't hang out with them. Do you understand now?"
Everyone nodded in unison. Even Kristian looked serious. They replied in unison, "Yes, director. We understand."
