With the newfound loyalty of the Four Great Families, Levi’s forces had grown to unfathomable proportions.
“We still have to subdue the threats that are lurking beneath the surface,” Levi announced. “Our mission is to
channel their untamed strength and mold them for the service of Erudia.”
This was a mission for the Four Great Families to execute.
“The most important thing is that my identity and your allegiance to me must be kept secret. I will not hesitate to
kill the one who lets slip of that!” Levi shot a warning glare to the men.
“Yes, sire!” they shouted with vigor.
“Sire, there’s something I don’t understand,” Albus spoke up. “Who was the one who had instigated us to kill you?”
At that point, it was clear that there was an attempt to drive a wedge between Levi and the Four Great Families.
“They are a powerful group not to be underestimated. It was they who had orchestrated the events at Mount
Drago. I have a feeling that they will show up very soon.”
The next stage of Levi’s plan required the unwavering support of the Four Great Families. Thus, Levi had briefed
them on the role that the Avengers had played in sabotaging their alliance.
The crowd was livid.

“Sire, the Avengers are unaware of your true identity, hence they will be under the impression that by driving a
wedge between us, we will have you killed. How are we supposed to maintain the appearance of our animosity
toward each other?”
Albus was visibly shaken by the extent of the Avengers’ influence.
“It’s simple,” Levi said with a mysterious smile. “Listen…”
Soon, the news that the Four Great Families had merged into one spread like wildfire.
It was decided via a vote that Albus was to head the combined houses.
Calling it an unexpected piece of news would be an understatement, as evidenced by the reactions it provoked.
The Four Great Families merging into one?
What a frightening thought!
With such a united front, who would be foolish enough to go against them?
That was only part of Levi’s plan. He had also arranged for representatives to be dispatched in an attempt to win
over the support of the invisible but influential houses.
Their success would only add to the ranks of Levi’s growing power.
The Avengers were baffled at Levi’s continued survival.
The plot of his murder by the hands of the Four Great Families had been put in place for so long yet he remained
alive and well.
Not only that, the Four Great Families had formed an unprecedented alliance as well.
“What the hell is going on?”
Kuro Dragon and Black Phoenix were beside themselves with rage.
“Boss, according to our sources, Thierry of Westford had been the one to protect Levi by supporting Albus’s claim
to be the leader of the combined family in exchange for Levi’s life.”
“What kind of luck does Levi have?” Kuro Dragon thundered. “Looks like we have to kill him ourselves, after all!”
Unbeknownst to them, Levi was the one that had leaked the news of the Four Great Families merging into one.
In the not too distant future, the Four Great Families would have to join forces and move as one under his direction.
To avoid any inconsistencies that might arise, Levi had decided to publicize the news of their unity.
Hopefully, this act would mitigate a lot of potential problems down the line.
By placing Albus at the forefront of the newly united family, Levi had intended to cripple the Avengers and turn their
attention away from the fact of his survival.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe whole of Erudia had been stunned by the news of the unity of the Four Great Families.
An unprecedented move!
Imagine the sheer power and influence of their combined might!
The Four Great Families had organized a unification ceremony to publicly cement their alliance.
It was to take place at North Hampton.
The Great Family of Westford was bestowed the honor of putting together the event.
Shaun and his men were placed in charge of overseeing the matter.
The Lopez and the Black families were the ones who were most thrilled about the news.
As it turned out, they were from Westford.
With the unification of the Four Great Families, its impact on the future of Erudia was uncertain.
The unification ceremony was organized with great ardor.
The families spared no expense in making the ceremony as grand as was fitting to the occasion.
After an entire week of preparations, it was finally ready.
The next step was to send out the invitations.
Shaun was the one who was placed in charge of sending them out.
“I will not send an invitation out to Levi and Zoey. He will not be disrupting our ceremony!” Shaun said with a sly
smile.
