Chapter 612 Titus Lynch
Emrys didn’t mind it. He said, “I have a few questions that I would like to ask you, Mr. Freville.
“Feel free to ask me anything, Empyrean Lord. I will tell you everything I know.”
Emrys nodded, then asked, “I overheard your conversation with the Three Hall Leaders. earlier. It seems that Shadow Pavilion had some dealings with Chanaea Martial Alliance in the past. Could you explain what happened?”
Jerome’s face stiffened, and he appeared conflicted.
“Don’t worry. I’m just asking out of curiosity. It doesn’t represent Martial Arts Alliance’s stance, Emrys reassured.
He understood Jerome’s reservations.
From the previous conversation, Emrys had deduced that Shadow Garden and Chanaea Martial Alliance were adversaries. Therefore, Jerome was worried that speaking of it might offend Emrys.
After all, he was unsure about Emrys‘ attitude toward Martial Arts Alliance.
But since Emrys had said as much, Jerome finally breathed a sigh of relief. His eyes flickered slightly as he said, “Shadow Garden was originally Martial Arts Alliance’s shadow…”
As it goes, light and darkness coexist. Where there is light, darkness is destined to be present. They are mutually dependent on each other.
The relationship between Martial Arts Alliance and Shadow Garden is precisely that.
Martial Arts Alliance represents light and justice, at least ostensibly. However, it is people who maintain its order. And where there are people, there are emotions and selfishness.
Where there is selfishness, there lies a dark side.
For instance, Pascal secretly cultivated sacrificial soldiers to do things on his behalf that were inconvenient for him to handle personally.
The same goes for Martial Arts Alliance.
1/3
Shadow Garden is equivalent to the sacrificial soldiers of the Mapleton family.
But due to certain reasons, Shadow Garden had a falling out with Martial Arts Alliance.
To uphold their image of righteousness, Martial Arts Alliance could not possibly acknowledge the existence of Shadow Garden. The best solution was to label all members of Shadow Garden as wanted criminals and eradicate them.
Back in the day, Shadow Garden was pursued and nearly annihilated by Chanaca’s Martial Alliance due to that very reason. They sought refuge in Briostein, barely surviving for several years before gradually regaining their strength and growing stronger.
Jerome slowly recounted the relationship between Shadow Garden and Martial Arts Alliance, his heart brimming with endless emotions. As for the specific reason for their fallout, he was unsure because he was not directly involved.
Over twenty years ago, the leader of Shadow Garden was not Jerome, but Titus.
“Titus Lynch?”
At that name, Emrys‘ heart skipped a beat.
This former leader happens to have the family name of Lynch as well. Could he have some relationship with Lena?
“Could you tell me about Titus?” Emrys asked.
After a moment of recollection, Jerome gave a bitter smile and said, “Mr. Lynch was very mysterious. No one knew his details and strength, only that he was exceedingly powerful.”
“Where is he now?” Emrys continued asking.
“Chanaca Martial Arts Alliance.”
“Martial Arts Alliance?” A hint of surprise showed on Emrys‘ face.
