Chapter 526 Meeting An Old Pervert
“What about you, Rys?”
“I’ll go deal with someone first!”
Emrys wore a stern expression, suddenly quickening his pace towards the nouveau riche. With a swift pat on his shoulder, he
declared. “You, old pervert, I’ve finally caught up with you!”
With a loud shout, Emrys startled the nouveau riche, causing him to jump in fright. Turning his head to look, his eyes also
widened dramatically.
Suddenly, he tossed a few banknotes onto the counter and loudly declared, “No need for change!”
After that, he took off running.
He even gave up on those two voluptuous women.
“Run? Can you really escape?”
Emrys let out a cold laugh. After finally catching this guy, there was no way he would let him escape easily. He immediately gave
chase.
He had just exited the restaurant when he suddenly saw a person with a sage–like demeanor approaching him. The person, with
a benevolent smile on his face, said, “My beloved Emrys, I have calculated that we are destined to meet today, and indeed, it has
come true…”
“Stop giving me excuses! Where’s your big gold chain? And your little wristwatch? Where on earth did you get this robe from?”
Emrys used to hold this fellow in high regard, but things had changed. Everything is fake!
“Old pervert, you’ve made quite a bit of money off my casual paintings, haven’t you?” Emrys continued angrily.
The man before Emrys was none other than Athos, the one who had once made a fool out of Emrys. He was also Emrys‘ mentor,
an old pervert.
Athos shook his head and said, “My beloved Emrys, I don’t understand what you’re saying. What about big gold chains and small
wristwatches or casual paintings? Don’t falsely
accuse me.”

“I can’t be bothered to argue with you about this. Follow me!”
Emrys was filled with indescribable frustration, grabbing Athos‘ wrist and heading towards a nearby pub.
Athos urged, “Emrys! Be more gentle. Don’t be so aggressive!”
“Gentle?” Emrys wouldn’t listen to him. He forcefully dragged Athos into the pub, pushed him onto a seat, and sat across from
him, coldly stating, “Behave yourself and give me an explanation!”
This scene was akin to an interrogation of a criminal.

Athos bent his rigid back, dropping all pretense. He laid his cards on the table and confessed, “Alright,
I’ll admit it. In fact, I hid the gold chain in—”
Emrys interrupted him by saying, “You know that’s not what I was asking.”
In Emrys‘ mind, then, there were a hundred mysteries. They were about the orphanage fire, about his
seven sisters, about the Nameless Divine Art, and about Mount Jacaster.
There were a lot more questions in Emrys‘ mind.
Emrys was like an ant in chaos, utterly directionless.
Take the welfare home fire incident, for instance. Although it was known that Pascal had set the fire,
Emrys didn’t know what had happened before that.
Emrys clearly remembered Hazel once telling him that when he was still an infant swaddled in cloth, a
friar had rescued him, taking him to an orphanage.
Emrys thought that the so–called friar was definitely in cahoots with Athos.
Additionally, according to Cordelia’s parents, when she was very young,,they thought she had passed
away prematurely. That was why she was taken away by Skybright from Mount Dracoger.
The identity of the other girls was still unknown for the time being, but it was certain to follow a similar
pattern.
Moreover, when the girls arrived at the orphanage, Emrys had not yet been born.
Emrys thought that was indeed a setup, and Athos was undoubtedly one of the strategists.

Emrys gazed at him, asking, “Shall we begin with the tale of my seven sisters and myself? How did we
come to be in the orphanage?”
“Um… Well…” Athos‘ eyes darted around, indicating that he was concocting another wicked plan.
“Are you unwilling to speak?” Emrys chuckled coldly. He then beckoned the pub owner and stated,
“Bring us some liquor!”
“May I inquire about the type of liquor you both prefer?”
“Anything will do. The stronger, the better.”
“Very well!”
The pub owner swiftly brought the drinks, which were their own potent liquor stored in a jar. Not only
was it strong, but it was also exceedingly expensive.

As soon as the jar lid was opened, a delightful aroma filled the air.
Athos couldn’t help but salivate.
However, he refrained from drinking because he suspected that Emrys had ulterior
motives.
At that moment, Emrys took the initiative to pour a glass and handed it to Athos with a smile. He said,
“Master, despite all the trouble you’ve put me through, you are still my mentor. You have taught me
valuable skills since I was young, and I can sense that you harbor no ill will towards me. This jar of
liquor is a token of respect from your student.”
During his time at the monastery, Emrys had come to realize that Athos had a fondness for liquor and
indulgence, especially when it came to fine alcohol. It was almost as if he couldn’t resist the sight of it.
Emrys was taking advantage of Athos‘ weakness.
“My dear Emrys, I appreciate your kind gesture. However, I have given up drinking a long time ago.”
Athos swallowed his saliva, his gaze fixed on the glass of liquor.
“Really? What a shame!”
Emrys pretended to be disappointed and let out a sigh. He then turned to the pub owner and said,
“Excuse me, my master has quit drinking. Can we return this jar of liquor?”
“You can’t!” The pub owner’s face suddenly darkened. “This liquor is the pride of our establishment. If it
weren’t for your generous nature, I wouldn’t have been willing to bring it out. Once this liquor is opened,
its flavor diminishes. It cannot be returned! It cannot be returned!”
If the pub owner hadn’t caught a glimpse of the supreme VIP card from the Chanaea Chamber of
Commerce in Emrys‘ possession just a moment ago, he wouldn’t have brought out the prized liquor.
Emrys glanced at Athos and said, “What a shame… What a shame. Well, could you please help us
dispose of it? I will pay as agreed!”
“You can’t do that!”

Athos finally lost his composure when the pub owner was about to discard the liquor. He stood up, firmly held onto the jar, and
glared at the pub owner, saying, “This was a gift from my student as a sign of respect. How can you simply throw it away?”
“You’re not going to drink it, are you?”
“Who said I don’t drink? Can’t I take a sip with my spoon?”
Athos promptly dismissed the pub owner, picked up his spoon, dipped it into the glass, and savored the taste in his mouth.
Athos proceeded to have a few spoonfuls.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTen minutes later, Athos lifted the glass and took a hearty gulp. Tears of gratitude welled up in his eyes. Overwhelmed, he said,
“My dear Emrys, you truly understand me. So filial, so very filial…” His voice trailed off into a contented murmur.
Athos downed several mouthfuls of strong liquor. Whether he was intoxicated or not remained uncertain, but it certainly loosened
his tongue. Exhaling the scent of alcohol, he said, “My dear Emrys, considering your respectful behavior, feel free to ask any
questions. I will answer them one by one.”
The change in attitude was astonishingly swift.
Emrys couldn’t be bothered to complain. Instead, he asked the question that had been puzzling him the most, “What is the true
nature of the relationship between me and my seven sisters?”
With a tipsy smile, Athos replied, “Indeed, it was us who sent you and your seven sisters to the orphanage. We also employed a
bit of magic, fostering a deep bond among the eight of you from a young age.”
“Just as I expected!” Emrys‘ gaze hardened. “I knew there couldn’t be such a coincidence. Out of all the children in the
orphanage, I chose the seven most beautiful ones to be my sisters. I even thought that I had the potential to be a ladies‘ man
since I was a child. So it was this group who were behind all this mischief.”
With the abilities of a friar, it was indeed a very easy task to make eight naive children develop a fondness for each other.
“What was the purpose of doing this?” Emrys asked.
Athos took another sip of his drink and said, “For that, you’ll have to ask Cassius, my superior. He was the one who instructed us
to do so. Several of your sisters were brought

back by him from Mount Jacaster.”
“Mount Jacaster?”
“Yes. You can think of it as a gateway. Beyond that gateway lies the world of cultivators. However, that gateway has been closed
for over twenty years, and it’s uncertain when it will open again.”
“No, you’re mistaken,” Emrys retorted. “If Mount Jacaster has been closed for over twenty years, then how did the ghost clan
manage to escape?”
Previously, Emrys had encountered the ghost clan twice. Once, it possessed the body of Angelina’s father, and another time, it
took over Diablos‘ body. If Mount Jacaster was truly sealed off, such entities could not have possibly escaped.
