“The Jagger family has had a presence in Phison for over a hundred years, maintaining a steady, albeit unremarkable, status. Initially, they were compliant with the guild, never having any conflicts. However, there was a time when the guild assigned the Jagger family a mission. The task was so significant that many members were mobilized, including the head of the Jagger family at that time. Unexpectedly, the mission proved to be extremely challenging. They encountered an accident, and even the head of the Jagger family was seriously injured. Although the mission was ultimately accomplished, the head of the Jagger family missed the best opportunity for treatment. After returning home, he passed away without receiving any medical attention. The guild, however, showed no concern for this matter. They didn’t even offer a word of condolence. This indifference led to the Jagger family holding a grudge against the guild. Subsequently, without informing the guild, the Jagger family moved to an isolated island. There, they set up camp and began to govern themselves. From that point on, they no longer obeyed the guild’s orders.”

Neera exclaimed, “I never knew about this part of the past. Speaking of it, the guild really did act unscrupulously, disappointing the Jagger family.”

“Indeed, the Jagger family had fought tooth and nail for the guild. Even the head of the family was sacrificed. But in the end, the guild doesn’t care at all. The only thing they value is the immediate benefits. How could the Jagger family possibly tolerate this? Cutting ties with the guild was inevitable.” Shane narrowed his eyes, his tone carrying a subtle nuance. “However, the Jagger family did some questionable things later on. The/deceased head of the family, who was the father of the current head, Stanley, engaged in some questionable activities. After Stanley inherited his father’s position, he proved to be quite shrewd. Despite his young age, he managed to elevate the Jagger family to a higher level. He even fortified the island so tightly that it was impervious to any attack. He often clashed with the guild and even arrested some of their members. It could be seen as a form of retaliation against the guild.”

Neera felt that there was nothing wrong with the Jagger family acting this way. “It’s not that the Jagger family’s actions are commendable, of course. Hurting others is always wrong. However, it was the guild that betrayed them first. If the Jagger family were to retaliate, frankly, their actions could hardly be deemed as extreme.”

Shane nodded. “That’s true. However, dealing with the current Jagger family is extremely difficult. To reach the island, we must first pass through the sea. Whether there will be ambushes or unexpected incidents, no one can be certain. Moreover, whether we can successfully land on the island after approaching the coast is also an unknown factor. Considering the widespread rumors about this matter, the Jagger family must have received the news by now and will soon be prepared to respond. The security on the island will undoubtedly be tightened, making it even more difficult for the Cox family.”
