At that moment the silence that hung in the clearing was unlike any Raymond had felt before. It wasn’t the calm of nature, nor the weight of the Flamefire Mountain’s oppressive aura it was the silence of human tension, the kind that carried daggers hidden in every glance.

Deep down in his mind, Raymond could already sense the storm forming behind their guarded faces. He didn’t need anyone to whisper it to him, he knew. These men and women, chiefs of their clans, weren’t allies bound together for the good of their people. No, he could see it in the twitch of their brows, the measured stillness of their breathing, and the way their eyes lingered too long on the jar in his hand.

They were calculating. Each of them had their own agenda.

They wanted benefits, power, control, leverage. Not one of them was here for fairness. Cooperation? That was a word for the weak. Raymond could tell in an instant: these chiefs, each representing centuries of legacy, were also carrying centuries of ambitio

    At that moment Elder Goru Stoneborne stood till straighter, his eyes glinting with a dangerous hunger. His lips curved into the faintest of smiles, the kind that revealed nothing to the others but carried enough weight to let his closest followers know he had already begun plotting. years of life… with this alone, he knew they can buy time, build our strength, and crush anyone who stands in our way.Redmaw Clan’s Chief Borgan Redfang couldn’t keep still either. His foot scraped lightly against the ground as he leaned forward, his breathing quickening, his eyes locked on the small jar Raymond held. He wasn’t just surprised, he was burning with desire. Redmaw Clan’s Chief Borgan Redfang, normally calm and composed, looked as if his heart had leapt into his throat. “Years,” he whispered under his breath, almost as though speaking to himself. “Just one piece, and years of Longevity…” He could already imagine elders of his clan demanding he secure the pills at any cost, or perhaps use the

    At that moment, upon hearing Derek’s sharp warning, Waylon’s pride burned, but he forced himself to remain quiet. His fists clenched at his sides, his chest heaving as he struggled with the humiliation of being silenced in front of so many. He had always believed his words carried weight, that people should respect his reasoning. Yet here he was, treated like a reckless child, his voice dismissed as if it meant nothing. For a fleeting moment, the thought of speaking again tempted him, but the cold, steely look in Derek’s eyes made it clear, if he pushed further, it would not end well for him.At that moment Waylon lowered his head, bowing slightly in Derek’s direction. The gesture was not entirely out of respect, but more a survival tactic, a way to swallow his anger and protect himself from further embarrassment. His silence hung in the air like a heavy curtain, and it did not go unnoticed by the other clan leaders who were watching closely, each weighing their own thoughts about the

    At that moment, Derek, the FlameClan leader, slowly Step forward, his robe flowing behind him like a sheet of fire. His eyes narrowed as he studied Raymond carefully, his voice calm but edged with weight.“I do not believe your words,” Derek declared, his tone carrying authority. The murmurs among the other clan heads instantly stilled. “Yet… deep inside me, something insists that you are not speaking falsehood. And for that reason, I will not dismiss you outright. Instead, I will give you the chance to prove yourself.”He paused, letting the silence stretch. The weight of his words pressed against everyone present.“You know very well,” Derek continued, “that you cannot defeat us all. Every great clan head is gathered here. If your purpose was to fight, you would have struck already, or fled before we even gathered. But instead, you came before us, with nothing but your words. That alone tells me your intentions may not be what he claims.”he then pointed at Waylon.The crowd shifte

    At that moment, upon hearing what Raymond just said, Waylon suddenly burst into slow, mocking applause. The sound of his palms clapping together echoed sharply in the tense room. He smirked and said, “Wow, Raymond. What a very touching story indeed. Look at you standing here, spinning words so sweet that everyone now thinks you cannot even hurt a fly. This is what you always do, isn’t it? You walk around deceiving people, blackmailing people, twisting truths just to get what you want. You put on this mask of righteousness, but behind it is nothing but schemes.”At that moment Waylon’s voice grew louder, more forceful, his eyes scanning the faces in the room as if trying to sway them even more to his side. “And now, you bring the same excuse here. You want to use pity, you want to use fake virtue. Well, it’s not going to work this time. That’s the very reason I came here today, to expose you for what you really are. I won’t let you fool these people like you’ve fooled others.”The room

    At that moment, Waylon took a deep breath, lifted his chin with righteous flair, and continued his dramatic speech. His voice echoed through the mountain basin, his words heavy with conviction and fire. “I took it upon myself to be here today,” he declared, pausing just long enough to let the silence weigh on the crowd. “Not for fame. Not for power either. But because someone had to act. Someone had to make sure that the culture, the legacy, and the sacred spirituality of Flame fire Mountain would remain untouched, pure, as it has been for generations.”His eyes scanned the gathering, locking with each of the four chiefs Darak Flameheart, Mistress Aryen Skyrend, Elder Goru Stoneborne, and Chief Borgan Redfang. Then, slowly, his arm lifted, finger extended, stabbing through the air like a dagger as it pointed straight at Raymond.“But him,” he spat, “people like him they’re the poison. They should never have stepped foot on this land, let alone dared to breathe its sacred air. And yet
