Chapter 990
As more people voiced their discontent, Pharaoh remained silent, his expression stern.
At that moment, Micah stepped forward. "The position of Yaren Tribe leader has always been hereditary. If any of you think you can be the leader, then show us your true capabilities." His sharp, cold eyes scanned the crowd.
In such a short time, there was no chance for any significant change to happen.
"What true capabilities does this lady have?"
"And the man beside her, wasn't he a soldier in Birkham? And didn't Salterra send an envoy looking for him? Now, he's working for Salterra!"
"Keeping someone like him in our tribe is a threat to our survival!"
"No, we can't let them stay!"Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Micah's voice boomed with authority, "I'm the leader now. If I decide someone stays, they stay. If you have a problem with that, you're free to leave."
There were many in the tribe. Even if some left, there were always others to train. In any case, Micah would not allow anyone to speak ill of Nina. Her status in the tribe was untouchable.
Pharaoh then walked up to the stage with Orion in tow. "Nina is my daughter, Ivy. You all accepted the impostor Seth brought back before, yet you refuse to accept my real daughter now? How does that make any sense?
"As Micah said, we decide who stays and who goes. If you're not leaving, then stop buzzing around. Orion is my grandson, Nina is my daughter, and Nash is my son-in-law.
"If anyone dares to harm them within the tribe, and I find out who, I'll personally see to it that they're cut to pieces!"
Pharaoh's words were cold and firm, his expression filled with authority.
He was taking a clear stand, openly acknowledging Nina and her family, especially Nash.
When he had previously spoken to Nash, it was because he was concerned about Nash's current status and feared that if they were separated, Nina would be hurt. But he had not anticipated Nina's unwavering determination to stay with Nash.
Nash had stayed by Nina's side throughout, and now Nina stepped forward as well, addressing the crowd.
"You don't need to worry about the
tribe falling into my hands or my husband's," Nina stated calmly. "I promise you all here that my child will not be the future leader of the Yaren Tribe. I appreciate you coming to celebrate my child's birthday, and I understand my father's intention. He wants to publicly acknowledge me on this day to protect my identity and ensure that no one dares to harm me."
With that, Nina bowed deeply to the crowd.
Micah wanted to say more, but Nina gave him a look, signaling him to stop. Those who had been voicing their objections were promptly escorted out by Micah's orders.
The ones who remained did so out of respect for the authority present, joining in the celebration for Orion. Orion, though happy to see so many people, was also aware that many of those present did not truly welcome him. Nina then made a decision, "We'll return to Birkham tomorrow."
Pharaoh had known Nina would
leave, but he had not expected her to decide so quickly. Before he could say anything, Micah interjected, "The issues with Salterra haven't been resolved yet. If you leave now, I'm afraid you'll be in danger."
Nina smiled and shook her head. "Nash and I have already considered that. Brother, you seem to forget the strategy of 'drawing out the enemy."
The better they were protected, the less chance Dominic and his people would have to strike.
