Life After Prison by Silencieux
Chapter 1287

Birk nodded without any hesitation.

"Yes. I think Severin will only accept if we offer him to be the grand-elder. Besides, it's a little unfair to him if we let him be our elder.

"Just look at the alchemical pill he produced. It's so much better than what our current grand-elder could produce. If we don't offer him to be our grand-elder, I can't think of any suitable position for him." After a pause, he continued, "Sofia, I used to worry about what kind of man you'd find to be your husband. Now, I think Severin is a good choice. You need to be more aggressive and fight hard to be together with him!"

Sofia bit her lip and said, "Dad, you don't know him at all. You've never met him. Are you saying this because of his alchemical skill?"

Birk chuckled. "Is it so hard to tell what kind of person he is? The fact that he's willing to save you proves he's righteous. You're a beautiful young lady, but he never once tried to ask you out. That means he's not a lustful person.

*Do I need to say more when you pick the guy for yourself? I trust your decision and judgment. I'm sure he's not a bad-looking lad. Not forgetting how gifted he is too. You have my full support."

Sofia was initially worried that her father would look down on Severin. Since she had her father's full support, she was relieved.

She bit her lip and whispered, "I think I'll try... I don't know if I can succeed or not. I've only seen him a few times, so I think it's important for me to spend more time with him."

Birk nodded. "When do you plan on visiting him again?"

Sofia smiled bitterly. "I just came back, so I don't think I should find him immediately. Let's wait a few more days. Let me use the time to absorb the alchemical pill. I'll go find him after another breakthrough. Then, I'll invite him to be our grand-elder."

Birk said assuringly, "I don't think he has any reason to reject you. He should be happy that a beautiful young lady is inviting him to be a grand-elder."

Sofia pouted. "Don't be so certain. He has a wife and a daughter. Maybe he doesn't want to leave them. Most people are willing to leave their families to join a sect, but I have a feeling he's not like those people."

Birk frowned. It was certainly weird that Severin had not joined any sect. Could Sofia be right?

After thinking about it, Birk asked, "Does his family have attainment?"

Sofia answered, "His wives just started training. They are profound masters now. His daughter is five years old, but she's already a level nine grandmaster, soon to be a level one profound master. I think his daughter is very gifted too."

Birk smiled. "Then, it's easy. Invite his wives and daughter to join our sect and train here. That solves the problem since their attainments are too low. They're way below the requirement to be our members." Sofia was shocked at her father's bold decision. It could cause dissatisfaction among the members or elders.

Birk smiled. "The rules are set by us humans. I want to break the rules. If Severin accepts the offer, you have to inform me earlier. I'll meet with the elders and inform them beforehand, so they'll know what kind of advantage our sect will have when a third-grade low-rank alchemist is willing to join us. I believe they'll agree with my decision."

Sofia nodded. "Okay, Dad. I know what to do. I'll leave now."
