Chapter 134: "Time For A Bluff"
Chapter 134: "Time For A Bluff"
A...trial?
Ainsley's eyesight blurred. The baby swayed and almost fell once more.
A trial to punish a sinner? And that sinner is Elliana?
This...how did this happen? Is it because of her being unconscious for four days straight? That's why they blamed Elliana to be the mastermind behind it?
Ainsley immediately realised that, indeed, that was plausible reasoning. Those old foxes couldn't wait to blame Elliana and replace her seat as the guardian of the current family head!
They still wanted to make me a puppet family head?
Ainsley's face darkened. For the first time ever, her expression changed into that of a mature lady. The fury in her eyes was so intense that even Finley and Chronos could sense it from afar.
[Oy, oy, isn't your lover a bit strange? She doesn't look like a toddler at all…] Chronos sent telepathy to Finley with his face contorted in astonishment.
That look in Ainsley's eyes…there's no way that she's a toddler! Even Finley also started to doubt it.
[Hmmm...maybe she is a regressor like me? But can't you check whether her soul is like me or not?] Finley squinted. He continued to observe Ainsley, who was eavesdropping on the servants in the corridor.
[Ha. I can't check her soul. It's Aetheria's expertise. However, I can see that her time isn't wrapped like yours...she is not a regressor.]
Chronos shook his head. He was also a bit dumbfounded to see someone as miraculous as this baby.
He had suspected that Ainsley might be another regressor, but it didn't seem to be the case.
Signing, Finley could only smile bitterly. [Maybe she got possessed by the dead spirits...maybe she is a shaman...who knows? If she's not a regressor, what is she?]
Finley couldn't just dismiss what he just saw. Indeed, Ainsley didn't look like a toddler at the moment. However, if she wasn't, who was she? She's not a regressor. So...the only logical reason would be a dead spirit taking over Ain's body.
Maybe she's indeed a shaman.
Finley didn't know about the lie that Ainsley made to show Grandpa Yofan. Thus, he didn't realise that the girl had the shaman ability and the prophetic dream. Of course, those two abilities were never Ain's, to begin with.
[Hm, hm, a shaman, huh. No wonder. Okay, let's see what she's going to do.] Chronos nodded and didn't pursue this matter any longer.
[It will be good to see the spirit contracted to this baby is a powerful one so that they can wreak havoc at the trial later.] The fairy of time chuckled mischievously.
Of course, even Finley wished that Ainsley would flip the table and taught those foxes a lesson.
[Yeah, let's hope that her contracted dead spirit is powerful…] Finley smiled bitterly.
To be honest, finding that the baby might be a shaman when she's only 3 years old did feel shocking. She already had 3 abilities, right? To be a multiple abilities user at such a young age…
That's quite scary. Such a talent was comparable to his talent when he went back in time! Even though Ain's abilities weren't offensive so far, if she could use them well, it could be an offensive skill.
Shaking his head, Finley tapped Ainsley's shoulder and smiled wryly. "So? What are you going to do? Elliana needs you." He reminded the baby.
Ainsley stiffened. Rage filled her face, and the tiny toddler gritted her teeth until others could head the noises.
"Um! Ain...will swave Elh! (Ain will save El!)" Ainsley clenched her knuckles tightly. While she eavesdrops earlier, she managed to understand the current situation.
The baby immediately dashed to the main hall while musing in her mind.
Right now, every upper echelon of the Sloan Family already gathered at the main hall along with Elliana. From the servants' gossips, it seemed that the 7 great elders, the heir of the branch families, and the branch families' heads were there.
Maybe even the five buds would also attend in secret.
They would interrogate her, but in the end, they would still pin the blame on the innocent lady.
That...can't happen!
Ainsley already formed a plan in mind within those minutes of eavesdropping. First, she had to enter the hall and told the others that she was unconscious because she attempted to make a bond with Cellino.
At this rate, she didn't need to hide it anymore. She could just finish the bloodlines triggering ceremony and tamed Cellino for real.
However, whether those people would listen to her or not was a question to ponder. What if they insisted on saying that she's too young to understand anything?
Even if she told the others that she just bonded with Cellino, they might not believe her. That's why she had to trigger that fellow's bloodline in front of those bastards.
But...would they give her a chance to speak? If they thought of her as an ordinary puppet family head, they wouldn't listen to her.
Even worse, they would ignore her…
That's why she also had to display her power to make others listen to what she wanted to say!
In this case, revealing her shaman ability would be the best move. Once Godfather descended, no one would ignore her.
It would be instant K.O!
Of course, to make such a great lie in front of many experts, she had to be cautious.
Let's mix 10% truth into 90% lies—the truth laid in the fact that she could tame Cellino, and she could prove it. The lies would be...that she's a shaman and Godfather spirit possessed her.
Thinking like this, Ainsley started to map a foolproof plan in her mind, and after contemplating for a few minutes, she felt that she needed a 'cooler' stage effect.
Well, well...it's time for a bluff!
