<strong>"Sun Clan\'s representative – Qin Liuxian,"</strong> The elder of the Sun Clan got up from his seat and gave his attendance, following the rules. No matter what will be the topic, as the clan that represents the Fire, the attendance always starts with them.

After he was finished, the Matriarch of Moon Clan rose to her feet, "Moon Clan\'s representative – Elyssa Moon."

<strong>"Dragon clan\'s representative – Kaye F. Ravillon"</strong>

<strong>"Representative of Asgard – Kvasir"</strong>

<strong>"Kuru Clan\'s representative – Agasthya"</strong>

<strong>"Representative of Angels – Raziel Blair"</strong>

<strong>"Minamoto clan\'s representative – Tachibana Shuzo"</strong>

<strong>"Representative of Elves – Druindar Heletris Triastal"</strong>

<strong>"Death Clan\'s representative – Qridus Garcia"</strong>

Because the clan heads change over time and some clans will send representatives as they did now, the saint felt the attendance/introductions were necessary and this rule was implemented by him during one of the meetings between the original founders of the hidden clans.

As for the identity of this mysterious guy, no one knows his real name except for his surname. For a hundred thousand years, he was with the hidden clans, never involved in either their matters or the affairs of the world. He only makes an appearance whenever the hidden clan meetings take place.

Except for the Death clan head, no one knows where he lives either.

The reason?

It\'s because he used to be the master of the founder of the Death clan but still, he never takes the sides and judges impartially.

As the clan heads were all rank-9, they speculated that he was a powerful Demigod from the First Epoch or maybe, he was born at the end of the apocalypse era. Either way, no one cares about his origin as they couldn\'t afford to challenge him.

Just like how 9-star Arcana Masters were addressed as Venerable, a 10-star Arcana Master is addressed as a Saint. But, this term hasn\'t been in use for a long time because of the lack of Demigods. So, this guy might be pretty much the only official Saint.

Back to the present, Saint Ravens took the seat and told Elyssa to speak about the agenda of the meeting. Only after she was finished, others can speak. It is the privilege of a host.

Elyssa Moon started speaking, "I would like to raise three issues, which are linked to each other.

First is the invasion from outer space.

A while ago, a spaceship from outer space crashed onto our planet without any warning. The invaders claimed themselves as the descendants of the original inhabitants of this planet before the apocalypse area.

The invaders belonged to an empire named \'The Federation of Arcturian\' and we have no idea about their full strength but if we believe the words of the leader of those invaders, they have occupied several worlds and have a mighty army enough to squash ours. I call for the preparations for a possible upcoming invasion.

Second, the invaders discovered our planet accidentally as they were searching for someone who escaped with some sophisticated technology, long ago. She was here in our world hiding somewhere and we have no idea about it. Whether her intentions are good or bad, she doesn\'t belong here and brought trouble to our world. I call for her capture and find out about the Federation of Arcturian.

And finally third. The leaders of the Sun Clan and Dragon Clan have openly supported the invaders to harm our planet stating they no longer wanted to be a part of hidden clans and wanted to share power with outsiders by eliminating the hidden clans. I and Lord Qridus are the witnesses.

I call for their suspension from the round table as well as an additional punishment on the grounds of betraying the oath of our founders as well as the humanity."

Saint Ravens then looked at the representatives of the accused, "Do you have anything to say in your defense? Before you speak, I will have to remind you that lying will lead to severe consequences." His eyes glowed dark red for a second, making the elders of Dragon Clan and Sun Clan gulp in fear. Meanwhile, the Patriarch of the Kuru clan fell into deep thoughts as their clan is also thinking of going public lately.

Kaye of the Dragon Clan rose to her feet and explained, "The Dragon Clan denies the accusation of our entire clan is involved in siding with the alien invasion. Only our late Patriarch has been involved in it and he received the punishment of death. I hope Venerable masters will take this into consideration."

After her, Qin Liuxian of the Sun Clan said, "I also have the same statement as Miss Ravillon."

Saint Ravens didn\'t comment on that and just stared at the projects, "Any questions?"

Qridus Garcia was the first to act as soon as he saw the opportunity, "I have but one question. Do the Elders of both of the clans have the knowledge of invasion prior to the incident?"

Kaye and Qin Liuxian fell silent before the former slowly nodded while the latter tried to defend himself, "But, we are helpless. Once a Patriarch takes the decision, it becomes final."

His statement brought criticism from the Minamoto clan\'s leader who looked like he is of a completely different race compared to the people of the Xynnar continent. "So, if one day, your Patriarch decides to commit genocide like in the same level of Aelius Crescent, you won\'t stop him or even inform other clans, correct? How is this anything different from aiding an evil act?" Tachibana Shuzo sounded cold while giving his opinion.

One after another, each one voiced their opinion on the matter.

Looking at how the clan leaders were asking the Saint to give a harsh punishment as a lesson without showing any mercy, Estella thought that it was amazing that they stay united for a period of a hundred thousand years.

After hearing everyone\'s opinion, Saint Ravens announced, "Here\'s my verdict. The Sun Clan and the Dragon Clan will be released from the burden of protecting humanity from the shadows. At the same time, all the elders along with the leaders of both the clans will be imprisoned for a period of 100 years as a punishment.

The clans are also no longer permitted to stay in pocket dimensions. But then again, the creations of the founders of the hidden clans cannot be destroyed. So, it was up to both of the clans to make the choice.

In the first option, the elders will be imprisoned somewhere else. Another hidden clan must volunteer for this job. In this scenario, the rest of the clan members can continue to stay at their homes as usual. But, their actions have to be monitored every now and then.

In the second option, the elders will be imprisoned in their respective pocket dimensions for 100 years. I will personally seal those pocket dimensions so that none could escape or even contact outside. The rest of the clan members will have to settle somewhere else but will be free to do whatever they want.

I will make a visit to the Dragon Clan and the Sun Clan after 3 days of time. By then, I need an answer, or else, I will just seal everyone and cut their contact with the outside world.

As for the invasion and finding the woman, I will not involve in this matter and let you decide for yourselves.

Okay, now, it is the turn of the other clans. Speak your agendas."

"I want to speak something." Qridus once again lift his hand and took the opportunity to act first, "The removal of the two hidden clans will only reduce our strength. I call for the replacements."

"Replacements?" Everyone turned their heads to look at Qridus in surprise.
