239 Cortezs background (1/2)
”What?” Caprice carr shouted when he heard his master's words.
Caprice felt shocked and hated Cortez's killer to his very core.
Cortez became famous for his secret technique, which he showed when he entered the sect.
”Another thing, Cortez has relations with the headquarters. Now my biggest fear is how should I inform them that he was killed by someone in the Cursed Wilderness,” The third elder became even more aged when he thought about it.
”He has relations with the headquarters?” Caprice became shocked once again and came to a sudden realization, 'No wonder, no one tried to steal that technique from him.'
Cortez joined the assassin sects just like a normal cultivator, along with Erick.
Both of them showed some powerful techniques and were easily recruited by the sect.
However, Cortez's coping technique piqued the interest of the upper echelon of the assassin sect.
When they saw Cortez's technique, they were competed for one against another to take him under their wing. However, to their surprise, he chose the third elder as his master.
Many other elders sent someone to kill Cortez, but all the members they sent were killed mysteriously, and afterward, they got a secret message from the headquarters to not come in the way of Cortez ever again.
From then onwards, no one dared to bother Cortez and started to please him with many gifts.
”Caprice, you go and cultivate. I will do what it needs to be done,” The third elder looked Caprice and ordered him to cultivate.
Since he was participating in the Champion's contest, the third elder wanted him to become as much powerful as possible.
”But, master..”
”No buts, just focus on your cultivation and Champion's contest,”
Before Caprice could say anything, the third elder interjected him.
”Ok master,” without a choice, Caprice left the mission hall and went to his residence to cultivate.
'Was he killed in that meeting he regularly attends every month? Or was there a misunderstanding in exchanging their items in th meeting?' After Caprice left the mission hall, the third elder's thoughts flashed at lightning speed and stopped at something called 'Meeting.'
After Cortez became his disciple, he came to know that Cortez was someone from the headquarters and didn't force Cortez to reveal his secrets and gave full freedom to him and took care of him.
Due to that, Cortez started sharing some things about him, and among them, 'Meeting' was one of Cortez's secrets.
'According to him, the meeting was between some prodigies of the Zrochester province who meet regularly at a particular time to exchange their knowledge of items,' The third elder tried to remember about the meeting that Cortez mentioned.
'Aaghhhh'
'who dare to kill my disciples,' just as he was pondering about a plan, the third elder heard an angry yell that was familiar.
Soon, he came out and looked in the medicinal hall's direction and tried to find out what had happened.
However, he didn't hear any more sounds from the medicinal hall.
