Chapter 1000: [Bonus Chapter]Partner without a contract (1/2)
# 1000
'Daniel? So, Captain Edmond's son's name is Daniel and if I am not wrong, I must look similar to him.'
Finally, Ajax felt like all the questions regarding why Captain Edmond was so kind to him despite the fact his origins were suspicious.
Ajax still remembered that day as though it happened just yesterday.
He walked out of the cursed abyss only to meet a few mercenaries and while everyone was wary about him, the captain of the mercenary squad was so kind to him.
Not only did he invite him to join his squad, he also taught the basic knowledge of cultivation while giving him many spirit stones.
When Ajax remembered the day of his early cultivation day, Ajax could not help but feel nostalgic.
”Compared to Edmond and his wife, the old sect master blamed himself for the death of Daniel which made him lose his cultivation path and soon became sick.”
After calming his wife, Bren replied to Ajax and all of a sudden, Bren became a little anxious.
”That's right! I have to go back and see my master. He was already sick five years back. I wonder how he is doing.”
Bren hurriedly helped Edina stand up on the ground and said, ”Edina, let's go and meet the old sect master.”
As for how he knew it's been exactly five years since he became a cursed being, it was, of course, learned from Nameless cultivator.
”Sorry to inform you once again, the old sect master had died five years back.”
Once again it was Master Elek who walked into the middle and informed Bren.
'Thud'
As soon as he heard those words, Bren fell to his knees; however, he didn't cry for some reason.
Nevertheless, one could see the anger in his eyes.
The anger was towards himself for not staying beside his Master and Godfather.
”If you want, I can take you to Edmond and then decide what you have to do.”
Finally, after waiting for some time, Master Elek spoke as he informed them that he would take them to Captain Edmond.
”Hm”
Before he and his wife came on the sect mission five years back, Bren sensed something was not right with the sect and also thought that Ketrok must have planned something to overtake the sect.
So, going back to the sect with his reduced cultivation would only give him confirm-death.
That's right!
For some reason, Bren's cultivation had dropped from peak elite general realm to level 5 elite general realm; however, in Edina's case, the cultivation drop didn't happen which made him relate it to Ketrok.
'Damn it...once I find out what he did to my cultivation, I will take care of him.'
Bren cursed Ketrok as he clenched his fists before nodding his head at Master Elek.
”Let's go then.”
Master Elek knew he didn't have anything to do in the Cursed Heaven. So, he decided to take them with him to make the reunion with Captain Edmond.
As for where to find Captain Edmond, it was not a difficult thing for Master Elek.
”Hm”
Both Bren and Edin nodded their heads as they walked behind Master Elek.
”Once again thanks for saving us. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask us. Even though we didn't have the power we used to have in the past, we will try our best in repaying you back.”
All of a sudden, Bren stopped in his steps as he walked back to Ajax and with a deep bow, he thanked Ajax.
