Chapter 997: Edina Hazegroove (2/2)
As for the woman, she cleared the tears off her face and supported her husband.
”How are you related to Captain Edmond?”
Ajax finally asked the question, he wanted to ask them.
Earlier, Ajax heard that the woman mentioned Captain Edmond's name. Even though he didn't know whether the Edmond she mentioned and the Edmond he knew were the same, he wanted to know more about it.
'I think the 'Edmond' she mentioned might be the same one.'
Deep down, Ajax had that thought; however, Ajax wanted to confirm it.
Moreover, the couple was wearing the robes that were usually worn by the elders of the Fire sword sect.
So, of course, he wanted to know more about Edmond and his feud with the Fire sword sect.
”Huh?”
The man frowned when he heard Ajax's question.
However, the woman was a little surprised as she hurriedly asked Ajax with a face full ofo excitement, ”Do you know Brother Edmond?”
”I guess so. But, I am not sure.”
Ajax nodded his head and at the same time, he shook his head before asking, ”What is the full name of the 'Edmond' you mentioned?”
Ajax asked that question since there was a very low chance of having the same name and surname.
”It is Hazegroove. My brother name is Edmond Hazegroove.”
Unlike the man, the woman was a little excited and proud when she mentioned her brother's name.
”Then you are talking about Captain Edmond. Yes, I know him. Moreover, he helped me a lot when I started my cultivation.”
Ajax nodded his head with a slight smile on his face.
Since she was the sister of Captain Edmond, he naturally felt a little close.
As for the help that Captain Edmond provided to Ajax were some basic knowledge and enough spirit stones.
However, that was a great help for Ajax when he didn't know anything.
”Great.”
Hearing that Ajax knew her brother, Edina became excited as she asked, ”He became a captain? When did he become that? Is his mercenary squad powerful? What is its ranking?”
Soon, she started asking more and more questions.
'What?'
Ajax was surprised at how many questions Edina had regarding her brother; however, when he thought about how she and her husband were turned into cursed beings, his surprise disappeared without a trace.
”His mercenary squad name is Hazegroove mercenary squad and it is one of the three top mercenary squads in the mercenary guild.”
Ajax didn't get irritated at the questions; instead, he started answering them one by one.
With each answer she got from Ajax, Edina would be surprised because his brother was not that strong before they entered the Cursed Abyss for a mission from the sect.
”Since you know about Captain Edmond, then you must know about the hidden families, right? How are they faring against the Royal family and the other top powers of our province?”
