The one that is most considered and officially based is the ranking of strength!
…
Some of the Supreme ones had already realized who had helped Shin escape.
Unfortunately, they couldn\'t question him.
As mentioned, the only one who could beat Panda was the Dragon Supreme Celestial.
If any other Supreme Celestial were to be considered, then they would fall quite short in terms of pure strength.
Also, many respected Happy Panda.
While they were still new Supremes, it was Happy Panda who helped them adjust to the system and made them feel less nervous or similar.
He had provided utmost support to all.
Thus, in respect for him, they pretended as if they didn\'t know that Happy Panda had informed and helped Shin escape their grasp.
Back at Lou Shin Clan...
A meeting among the higher-ranking members of the clan was taking place. It was primarily led by Aella.
She had seen Shin leave the town. Since he didn\'t exactly ask her to follow, she realized that this was the perfect time to discuss what was in her mind with the other members.
"Thank you for gathering here...", Arlla thanked all.
Deoras, Terran, and Raka merely nodded their heads while the swamp kings replied, "Ah, it\'s fine. There is nothing to thank for this. Since you are supposed to lead us in the absence of his highness, it is our duty to respond to your summons."
Aella smiled a bit. Right after that, she turned her gazes towards the chief of the goblins, a Hobgoblin, and then at the leader of the goblins\' mages and nodded her head.
She didn\'t ask the Arb elves or the Dark elves to assemble.
The moles and dwarves weren\'t included either.
However, she didn\'t say anything else, as if, waiting for someone else to arrive as well.
Lastly, Blanca, Alira, and Kaily arrived.
She was waiting for them.
After they came to her den, which was situated at the Central Plaza, she started.
"Everyone, I need your opinions and help..."
Everyone seemed confused. They had many questions after hearing just that one sentence, but they waited. They let her explain herself first.
"As Master said, he would only be taking Sir Deoras with him...", she looked at Deoras while saying this.
It was as if his chest was filled with pride and confidence when she mentioned this.
She said, "We all know that Master is the strongest among all of us. That\'s why he has the right to rule us..."
"But, no matter how much I try to convince myself, I can\'t seem to keep my mind at ease."
"Just how can we let our ruler go alone? Sir Deoras is strong, no doubt about that. But having just one bodyguard is too much less of a protection, especially for a ruler."
"I\'m just worried. In case something that mustn\'t happen, happened, then what are we going to do?"
After asking all these questions, she paused for a few seconds.
"Oh come on! Do you really think I would fail to protect his highness?" Deoras asked.
Many had seen Deoras\' strength in the clan war. He was almost as strong as all the higher-ranking ones present here.
Of course, Blanca was clearly many times strong than Deoras, still, his strength was no joke.
However...
Aella was just sad and worried...
"Sir Deoras, as I already told you, you are strong."
"You are way stronger than many present here."
"But even Master cannot win against a Supreme celestial..."
"How are you supposed to protect him in case one attacks?", she just repeated a different version of Shin\'s question.
Deoras was forced to keep his mouth shut after the question.
Everyone present there knew that he was the one who was actually getting protected. Rather than protecting Shin, he wanted to go for his own protection.
In everyone\'s eyes, respect for Deoras fell.
Well, it was kind of true that Deoras\' real intention was to seek protection from Shin, but this didn\'t mean that he wouldn\'t protect him!
He had already considered Shin as his master and ruler. No matter what happened, he was ready to even give his life for Shin.
But, his instincts probably took the better of him. He was scared of his death earlier, but now, after he thought about it again, he realized that he was being foolish.
\'I have to make it up to everyone and gain their respect back.\', he promised himself as he realized that everyone else had lost respect for him.
