Those sent to the island were usually the worst criminals, not someone who merely had a misunderstanding with someone his age. There was no killing involved, which meant that even if they wanted to punish him, sending him to Snake Island shouldn\'t have even crossed their minds.

But since the damage was already done, there was no going back. However, Karsha, who wanted to make the Varon Family regret their decision, had already set plans in motion a day before his departure.

Kay, a bulky hunter who specialized in rare herbs and monsters, was one of the people who had tried to buy the taming method from Karsha when he used it to tame the Lonely Cauldron at the Alchemy Guild.

Kay hunts for monsters that people prefer alive rather than dead, but his method is the crude one. He always suffers when hunting to capture such monsters. However, with a method like the Taming Speech, he would be able to capture most of these monsters without much difficulty.

Of course, there was the issue of understanding the essence behind the Tame Speech, but since Kay was so confident in buying it, Karsha didn\'t mind. He saw an opportunity to make the Varon family suffer while he was also suffering on the island.

A day before his departure, Karsha met with Max and struck a deal. Max was to help him spread the word about the Varon Family\'s plan to send him to the island, and in return, Karsha would give him the Tame Speech for free.

Going against a great family was dangerous; however, when an offer like no other was presented, all forms of fear ceased to exist.

Max, who desperately needed the Tame Speech, readily accepted the offer and began his underground work. Within a week, he had managed to enlist many information guilds in the underworld, and like an explosion, the rumors began to spread.

"Have you heard? The Varon family sent a 19-year-old Master Stage cultivator to Snake Island over a disagreement with their heir, Vance," a young man sitting behind a tavern table said, holding a cup of mead.

"I\'ve been hearing the same thing, but I thought it was just one of those rumors," another person seated across from him replied.

"Apparently, this is not a rumor. The whole of Snake Peak has been closed, and the sect master and elders of the Sunlight Sect haven\'t left that place for the last two weeks." He spoke and then gulped down a mouthful of mead.

"So, the kid sent there is a disciple at the Sunlight Sword Sect?"

"That\'s what I heard. Some are even saying he\'s an Inner Disciple. However, nobody knows him."

"This is just too embarrassing. I never thought a great family would stoop so low and engage in such a shameful endeavor," one of the young men remarked as they continued to criticize the Varon Great Family.

Meanwhile, in one of the luxurious buildings in Sunlight City, a meeting between some members of the Varon family was also taking place.

"Hugh, explain yourself, and make sure I like your answer," demanded a man who, despite living for hundreds of years, appeared only to be in his late 50s. His voice carried the weight of authority.

Hugh, the main culprit behind sending Karsha to Snake Island, broke into a cold sweat. The man he was about to speak to was Varon Axel, the Patriarch of the Varon Great Family. Axel was a Mid-stage Great Sage cultivator, a being akin to a Tier 10 monster.

In all of the Drone Kingdom, only a few people had managed to break through to the Great Sage level, and Axel was one of them. His strength on the battlefield was nothing to joke about, and because of that, many feared the Varon family.

Although they were a family of spies and assassins, Varon Axel was an axe user with a brawler class. He was powerful and merciless. Even though Hugh was his son, Axel wouldn\'t hesitate to squash him like a bug if necessary.

Hugh took a few steps forward, glanced around the room, and then began to speak. "Forgive me, Patriarch, for my rushed actions, but I had reasons for what I did.

"I intended to send him and some members of our hunting team to carry out an assignment in the Thunder Desert, or he could apologize to Vance and serve as his servant for two years. However, when we went to administer his punishment, he insulted the family."

"In my anger, I didn\'t think clearly, and before I realized it, I had already punished him by issuing the Snake Island punishment. Yet, instead of showing remorse and offering an apology, he continued to insult the family. Out of frustration, I left without mitigating the situation.

I understand that my actions were wrong, but I couldn\'t tolerate someone insulting our family without facing consequences."

The faces of the elders gathered in the room turned red. The anger coursing through their bodies was evident in their eyes.

"How is he still alive? Why didn\'t you kill him before the time for him to enter the island came?" one elder demanded.

"I assigned Blade, but someone was protecting Karsha from the shadows, preventing Blade from getting close enough to kill him. And strangely, the time for the portal leading to the island was miraculously forward a few days, so we didn\'t have enough time to assassinate him," Hugh, still sweating buckets, answered.

The patriarch hadn\'t spoken yet, leaving Hugh uncertain of his fate. Until Axel spoke, Hugh would remain on the hot seat. But that didn\'t mean he wouldn\'t answer the questions being hurled at him.

"From our investigation, the only Saint Alchemist in the whole of Sunlight City is on his side. Care to explain how that happened?"

\'You had to ask that, you bastard,\' Hugh cursed the elder who posed the question. Master Artemis is the only Saint-Level Alchemist in the entire Sunlight City. Having a good relationship with him is invaluable. However, now that he appears to be on Karsha\'s side, they couldn\'t help but wonder if Hugh\'s decision would sever that connection.

"I also learned that the boy was able to tame the Lonely Cauldron. Clearly, he is someone Old Master Artemis would value, considering he has been staying at Snake Peak for the past 16 days," another elder chimed in, causing Hugh to feel like he was drowning.

"Not only him but also the Sect Masters are there. Clearly, there is something remarkable about that kid," another elder added, further stoking the fire.

The more the elders spoke, the darker Hugh\'s expression became. He felt as though his soul was sinking into the darkest abyss, hoping nobody would discover his vulnerability.

The elders showed little concern for his emotions; their attentions were fixed on the potential damage to the family. They were aware that should anything happen to Karsha while on the island, both the Old Alchemist and the Sunlight Sword Sect would forever hold disdain for the Varon Great Family.

The Sunlight Sword Sect is one of the seven powerful sects in the Drono Kingdom. Among them, it ranks second, nearly equal to the Royal Drono Sect, which stands at the top.

These sects serve as training grounds for young prodigies who will one day defend against invaders from outside and enemies within. They wield immense power, and the Varon Great Family knows that losing the Sunlight Sword Sect as an ally would be a significant blow.

The Varon family wants nothing more than to punish the one responsible for this predicament, but since the Patriarch has not spoken, they dare not act recklessly. Snake Island is dangerous, and the chances of a Master stage cultivator surviving there for 60 days are slim. Given this reality, their only option is to compensate the sect and hope their offering is accepted in good faith.

"Hugh," the Patriarch finally spoke, "you have brought great shame to our family. No matter how justifiable your actions were, there is no excuse for what you\'ve done. Not only did you strain our relationship with the Sunlight Sword Sect, but you may also have jeopardized our connection with Master Artemis.

You have tarnished the family name, and for that, you will be punished. I don\'t care how you do it, but you must find a way to repair the relationships you have damaged, or death will be the least of your worries.

Leave my sight and do not return until you have fulfilled your objective."

Hugh felt his legs turn to jelly when Axel spoke. Being punished was even more painful than having his head severed. He not only angered the sect, but he also found himself on the wrong side of Master Artemis and possibly the entire Alchemy Guild. Failing to re-establish those connections would mean certain death for him and possibly his entire family.

After Hugh dragged himself out of the mansion, Axel turned to his elders. "Gideon, what do you know about that kid?"

A blonde-haired man with a bulky physique responded, "As far as I know, he just appeared one day and passed the Inner Court exams. There\'s nothing on him. We don\'t even know his age. The only thing we know is his name, Karsha Damon."

"Then he might have no backing or very strong backing. We have to tread carefully here." Axel pondered the information for a while before giving his final verdict.

"Keep an eye on Snake Peak. The fact that the Sect Masters and Master Artemis are waiting means he might not die on that island. We need to assess him well before taking any actions."

After everyone left, Axel, the patriarch of the Varon family, walked close to the window and gazed deeply into the heavens. "There is danger on the horizon," he spoke softly, then sighed. "He should die on that island, as he will die when he returns anyway."

With an evil laugh, he vanished from sight, leaving the echo of his sinister laughter resounding through the whole mansion.
