'Karma'

Seeing that Danil is not replying, Sabastian declared.

"Zulkernyn Yazid Hassan is currently under the protection of the Yaksha! That token is the proof." Sabastian lied.

Actually, the token was given to him by his sister for an errand.

He just forgot to destroy it after he finished his errand.

Thankfully, it came in handy. Although, he will have to explain this matter to his sister.

Sabastian will cross that bridge when it's due.

For now, he needs to keep the Vassiliev's from taking Zulkernyn.

"I'm sure that the Vassiliev wouldn't want to offend Yaksha and make an enemy out of her, right? It would be disrespectful towards the Yaksha if you take the person under her protection, right?"

"But if you still insist, and the Vassiliev does go against the Yaksha. Would the Heilige family sit still? I'm, after all, a Sword Saint candidate of the Heilige family and the young master of the Heilige family!"

Sabastian narrowed his eyes.

"Danil, think clearly! Your older sister is engaged to my older brother. You don't want to jeopardise the engagement, do you? The union between the two families will bring many benefits to both of the families. If you insist on taking my friend, then you will not only risk offending the Yaksha but also risk breaking the engagement of your older sister. There is also me. I'm sure you have heard, that recently I was almost assassinated. Currently, there are armed men in front of me. If something were to happen to me here, then the Vassiliev family will make an enemy out of the Heilige family too."

Hearing the last part, the guards lowered their guns.

Danil balled his hands into fists.

He grits his teeth, looking at Sabastian with heated eyes.

The current situation doesn't look good to him or the Vassiliev family.

The Vasiliev's can't offend both the Yaksha and the Heilige family.

If it was just the Yaksha, they could somehow manage.

But the Heilige family as well?

No, they can't afford it!

Just as Danil, was weighing the pros and cons.

Thinking about what to do in this situation.

Sabastian pulled out his final card.

"Oh one last thing, I forgot to mention this but Aaron Blood from the Blood family owes a 'Blood Debt' to Zulkernyn Hassan."

"..." Danil.

Danil calmed down after hearing Sabastian.

He stared at Sabastain for a few meant before turning back to leave.

That 'Blood Debt' was the final nail to Danil's consciousness.

To offend three parties at once? Only a fool will think twice.

Especially, the Blood family.

They are known to be chaotic. They are very arrogant and prideful.

If the Blood family really does owes a 'Blood Debt' to the young Hassan.

The Vassilev's cannot touch him until the debt is paid.

The Blood family values Blood Debts the most in the Sacred Society.

They were the ones who introduced such a 'debt' system to the abyss world.

If the Vassilev's lays a hand on the young Hassan, then the Blood family will do everything possible to take revenge for him.

Danil was furious but his hands are tied, he can't take away the young Hassan.

He begrudgingly turned to leave.

Sabastian and the misfits inwardly sighed a sigh of relief.

Just as Danil was about to leave with his Elite guards in tow, he turned back.

"You somehow managed to save your friend here, Sabastian. But the sins of his clan will catch up to him one day. And when that day comes? Even if the Yaksha, the Heilige and the Blood family try to protect him, they won't be able to."

Danil left right after leaving these words to Sabastian.

Zulkernyn stared at the empty road in front of him.

Those words of Danil Vassiliev holds some weight to them.

He knows very well, that soon the sins of his clan will catch up to him.

For the past couple of month, many Assassin orders have come to look for him.

Some wanted him to join, some wanted to kill him and some wanted to know the whereabouts of the Library of Wisdom and Death.

There are others as well.

The enemies of the Hassans.

No, more like the victims of the Hassans!

"You okay Zulk?" Sabastian called out to his friend.

Zulkernyn jolted out of his thoughts.

He turned to his friend before lowering his head in embarrassment and guilt.

"I'm sorry, Bastian... Because of me, you have-"

"Are you an idiot or what!"

Sabastian said raising his voice interrupting Zulkernyn.

He shook his head before giving out a deep sigh.

"Yeah, you should have told us about the Vassiliev's enmity towards the Hassan's. But I guess it's also my fault too since I arranged this vacation at the last minute. Everyone was tired and we all needed a break. Seeing that I put so much effort into this vacation, you probably didn't want to see my effort go to waste by telling me about the Vassiliev's... Right? You probably thought that if you had told me about it, I would have cancelled this trip, right? That's why you didn't tell me, instead you made some preparation to lay low so the Vassiliev wouldn't find out that you're a Hassan."

"..." Zulkernyn.

'Yeah, I guess, I was wrong...' Zulkernyn muttered to himself. He didn't say these words out loud.

He lowered his head in guilt and was silent.

Sabastian turned to Erisviel.

"So that's why you prepared the fake ID for him, I see... He's a complete hopeless idiot, isn't he?"

Erisviel shrugged her shoulders.

"I know right? But try to understand where he is coming from, Sabastian, he's a Hassan and he didn't want us to get entangled with his Clan. The Hassan's are not the Hassan's of the past. Zulkernyn feels obligated to remove the stigma of his clan by himself. It's always been like that. He rarely asks for our help when it comes to his Clan."

The others nodded hearing Erisviel.

Sabastian turned to Zulkernyn.

He put his hand on his shoulder before he spoke to him.

"It's okay, don't feel guilty or embarrassed or anything, Zulk. We understand but please, bro! Give us a heads up in the future if something like this ever occurs. Try to open up a bit, it's not like the matters regarding your clan is less than what Aaron, Nyx and I are going through with our family. Also, we have Nameless on our shoulders, bro."

After speaking his mind to Zulkernyn, Sabastian turned to the other misfits.

"Let's go back to the hotel. With the Vassiliev's breathing down our necks, we have to find Aleksei quickly and flee this God-forsaken country!" He said to the others.

Sabastian didn't tell them that he felt someone else in the car with Danil who didn't show themselves to them.

That person in the car, Sabastian could feel extreme hostility directing towards Zulkernyn from them.

It was masked very well that even Zulkernyn and Ian didn't notice.

He was only able to notice because of his high senses and experience from his past life.

'That person is strong... Stronger than Kenobi!' Sabastian said in his mind.

Quickly dismissing his thoughts, he walked towards the car following behind the other misfits.

20 minutes later, they arrived at their hotel suite.
