Chapter 213 : A Favour
"What did you say?" Both the old man and woman exclaimed simultaneously after hearing Eden's reply.
"Yes, ancestor. My sister saw a person in her divination who could take down the Taurus family." Eden said it again loudly.
"Who is that person? Where is he now?" The old man asked in a hurried tone, in an eccentric manner.
"I still don't know about him." Eden replied in a depressed tone.
"What?! Isn't your organisation a powerful force? How can you still not find him?" The old woman exclaimed with a doubtful look.
"My sister did not see his face clearly. She said a powerful force is blocking her from taking a closer look at that person's face in her divination." Eden replied what her blind sister explained.
"Then how did your sister know that he was the person who could take down the Taurus family?" The old man asked with a straight face.
"Because that person is interacting with me in my sister's divination. She used me as a vessel to find out the fate of that person." Eden explained to her blind sister.
"So, he is going to meet you at your headquarters." The old woman muttered while thinking deeply about this issue.
"Yes, ancestor… I've already made arrangements to find out who that person is. I will definitely find him at any cost." Eden replied with a determined tone.
"Hmmhh… Interesting. I never thought you would get a chance to take revenge on your own Taurus family. But I think God showed a way for you. Eden, I'm really curious to see this person." The old woman commented with an interesting look.
"Madam, actually, I came here to ask you about another matter." Eden spoke in a hesitating tone while avoiding the gaze of the old man.
"What is it?" The old woman asked with an interesting look. Eden took a deep breath as she didn't know how these old couple would react to her question.
"Madam, when me and my sister left this family, you promised us one favour. Do you remember it?" Eden asked while staring into the old woman's eyes.
"Eden, don't. I promised that favour to you in a critical situation. Don't try to use that favour to take your revenge against the Taurus family. You know that hidden families should maintain peace, as it would affect world politics." The old woman seriously warned Eden.
"No madam… I know your family rules. At present, you are not the family head. I know that you can't help me directly to take revenge. But I want to use that favour for something else." Eden replied hurriedly before the old woman got angry with her.
"Eden, stop dilly-dallying with my wife. Ask me what you want." The old man, who is a short-tempered candidate, shouted loudly.
"Sir, don't get serious. I'm asking for a favour promised by the madam. If she denies my request, I won't insist on that favour." Eden replied to the old man, who is staring angrily at her. After calming down the situation, Eden started revealing her request.
"Madam, I don't know about the person who is going to help me take revenge against the Taurus family. But one thing is sure... to get revenge on the mighty Taurus family, one person needs well-trained in stealth and speed."
"So, if possible, promise me that you will train that person along with your family members and allow him to enter that ancient well." Eden asked after preparing for the lashing out of the old man.
As expected, the old man stood up from his seat and started yelling like a madman.
"Shameless… How dare you talk about the ancient well? You also knew how important that well is for my family. You stayed in this family for ten years. Did you ever touch that well for once? How do you think that we will allow an outsider to touch that ancient well?" The old man continued to rant at Eden with razing anger.
The old woman also did not stop the old man, as she also knew how important that ancient well for the family. Eden stood calmly without stopping the old man. After a few more minutes, the old woman stopped the old man and passed water in a clay pot.
"Madam, you are the one who promised me this favour. You did not put any restrictions on me when you promised." Eden commented with her head down as the old woman is staring at her from top to bottom.
"Eden, if it were not for the person who asked me this favour, I could have killed that person in the same instance. But you are my own sister's daughter. For that one reason, I couldn't do any harm to you."
"Don't forget that I'm also waiting to extract revenge on the Taurus family, who killed my sister (Eden's mother). But I'm bound by the Shadow Clan rules." The old woman replied in a serious tone.
Eden's eyes became moist after hearing the old woman's response. The memories of her childhood and her mother's death in the Taurus family churned her mind as the old woman mentioned her actual relationship with her mother.
"Eden, do you really want to use your favour for a stranger whose fate is still unknown?" The old woman asked in the end, as she needed to respect her word of favour.
"Yes…" Eden answered resolutely with moist eyes.
"Then I can only help you train that person with my family members. If he is capable, I will suggest the patriarch to offer him a marriage proposal."
"If that person really becomes one of my family members, he can touch that ancient well. That is the only way I can offer it to you. The decision is yours. Tell me, do you want to use my favour, the ancestor of the Shadow clan's favour, to benefit an outsider.
The old woman asked with a serious tone while staring at Eden, who showed a happy smile after hearing her question.
"Yes, absolutely. In all my life, I have only wanted to take revenge on Taurus family that killed my mother. For that, I'm ready to do anything." Eden replied resolutely with a happy smile and stern gaze.
