Sam didn't leave anything hidden as he completely said what is on his mind.

The Clan's leader is embarrassed. His face is red and he couldn't even make eye contact with anyone at the table. But he managed to give Sam that dirty stare. The stare that said that he wanted to swallow him whole.

Sam stood up from his seat and bowed a little.

"I am really sorry for interrupting your pleasant time with the meal. I really didn't mean to do that, but I couldn't stop myself from making myself clear so that I would avoid any future misunderstandings."

With that Sam left the table. But the tension at the table is not cleared at all.

The rest of the meal was awkward and halfway through the Clan's leader gave some excuse and left.

As soon as he left, Giyon and Grivon ran to Sam's room hurriedly.

"What the fuck is wrong with you? That is completely uncalled for."

Grivon yelled directly. Giyon stayed silent, but her expression indicated that Sam better has a goddamn good explanation.

"This is going to happen sooner or later anyway. I am just making sure this happened with my words."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, I am going to kill Malgav and at that time, I will definitely be targeted by your clan. So, I am just tearing the decorum a bit sooner than later."

Grivon and Giyon were dumbfounded. They looked at Sam in surprise.

"You are going to kill him?"

"Of course, I am. There is no way, Grand Elder Pon and his son chose to keep the face of the guy over his genitals and as long as those genitals are not disposed of completely, he would still do the same things.

After all, it is not his pretty face that made him rape so many girls. So, I am going to kill him."

"Still, don't you think this is a bit unnecessary? After all, why do you have to make enmity with the Clan's leader."

"Enmity?"

"Of course, you just called him a pedophile supporter and he did that just to keep his clan's head position. How would you feel if someone said that about you?"

Sam just gave a faint smile and said.

"This is to establish character and also to make sure that all the masks are off and I deliberately did that in front of your parents.

Before I explain any further, both of you guys tell me this, do you guys honestly believe that your clan is full of saints? Do you really believe that once they realized that every new invention you are getting originally belongs to me, they will stay put and not come for me? And that includes your clan leader, do you really think he wouldn't use the clan is bigger than any individual card to swallow any of our business in the future?"

Giyon and Grivon turned silent. They couldn't be sure. In fact, they have more belief that everything Sam said would happen than not happen at all.

"There it is, I believe I know what your silence means. It is only a matter of time before your clan makes a move against me. In fact, there is a possibility that wouldn't even need to kill Malgav and he might be even be killed by someone else and I would be blamed for it.

Many people in your clan might be moving under shadows and your clan leader who supposedly supports me, wouldn't stop it.

Now that I openly tore the decorum apart, the moves wouldn't be in the shadows as before. At least before people wouldn't directly attack me in the fear that the clan's leader will side with me, but now as far as they are concerned I am a guy who insulted Clan's leader.

They might even want to make sure that the clan's leader knows that they are the ones making this attempt."

"This is a way too far-fetched dude and I couldn't even see how this would help you at all. At least, you could have just kept the façade and everything would have been fine as it is. We could have just rejected any proposals for doing clan's business." Grivon said with a sigh.

Sam turned to Giyon with a smile and she sighed heavily.

"Are you sure, you want to go this way? This would be a much harder way to tackle this."

"I know. Anyway, it is not like anything I have said in it is false. It is completely true. So, let the matter spread out a bit."

"Sure, but come back for the dinner. They are still waiting."

"You guys aren't done yet?"

"No, only clan leader was done. We are still eating."

Sam shrugged and went back to the table.

For the remaining nobody talked about Sam and his incident with Clan's leader. Of course, the rest are not Giyon and Grivon, they could understand why Sam did this even without him explaining. They have a far better experience and they would surely have a better understanding of why he did what he did.

So, the topic slowly turned to their adventures and exploits.

"Now Mom, Dad, and Uncle. Are you guys going to tell me what your secret fame is all about? I knew you guys were strong and even the clan's leader is a bit afraid of you, but how come you seem much more powerful than you are supposed to be?

This Snake Bitch and what is up with these weird titles, Sonic Prince, Sword Sovereign, Hurricane Princess? What kind of lame nicknames are they?"

"Tsk, tsk. My son heard my nickname for the first time and he didn't even like it. He called it lame. I should really kill the guys who gave me that." Yuvana said with an expression of lament.

Sam shook his head with a smile at her comment.

Grivon didn't care and just waited for them to speak.

Gamin gestured his brother to speak and Gail shrugged before explaining.

"We are actually members of Grey Circle.

The Grey Circle is not an actual circle it is a network of people who came into contact with four organizations. The first one is League of Blood Iron, the second one is Divine League, the third one is the Divine Graveyard and the last one is the Pseudo Divine Realm Battle-field.

When a person learns about the existence of all four of these places and comes into contact with them with a deeper understanding with the members and have any battle experience with members of the two leagues and the remaining two places, they could consider themselves as Grey circle members.

There are very few people, basically a few hundred members in this circle.

The basic requirement for any person to be considered a member would be to have a cultivation level of Astral Plane Consummation and your sister might even be the newest member of the circle.

That circle is the place where the strongest of the bunch would roam around freely and come into contact.

There are friendships, enmities and rivalries, partnerships, everything. It is just that the stakes are higher and there is absolutely no one who keeps the order between them except for the few unwritten rules.

If someone crosses these rules, the two leagues that are involved which are the only two official organizations acknowledged by the circle members would take it upon themselves to deal with them."

"How come we don't know about this?" Grivon asked in confusion. After all, he is a young master of the Gaja Clan. There are a few things he doesn't know about in this world.

"It is because you haven't explored enough. There is no invitation or entrance test to join the circle, it just happens. You would realize that you are part of the circle, only after a long time have you been part of the circle.

After finishing enough missions and gaining enough strength, your parents and I who obviously don't have any interest in the strength of the clan started roaming around, challenging stronger opponents and before we knew it, one day, the strongest of the bunch gave us these nicknames.

As we are in the pursuit of challenge and improvement, soon we managed to enter the circle without even knowing.

It is actually a completely intangible concept. There are no secret messages or special communication methods between the circle users, it is just that they no longer operate on the same grounds as the rest of the people and organizations and mostly roam around and come across each other in the most dangerous places in the world as they try to pursue the strength beyond the Astral Plane Consummation."

"So, you mean to say, there are some other entities out there that are stronger than the top clans and organizations like us?"

"There are way stronger people.. The dangers they come across the Divine Graveyard and the Pseudo Divine realm are way too much that the clan wars seem like child's play to them."
