The Wolf’s Bride by Coffee’s Tea novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789 

The emperor’s situation most likely had to do with the Kleins. 

Otherwise, he would not have come forward to save Andrius, let alone travel all this way to reveal these secrets. 

“It’s a long story.” Registus‘ expression was complicated as he took a deep breath. 

Then, he organized his thoughts and started to explain, “Many years ago, the public affairs of Florence seemed to be controlled by the imperial court in Kiyoto, but in reality, the ones truly pulling the strings were the five ancient martial families operating in the shadows.” 

The ancient martial families! 

This was the first time Noir, Halle, and Andrius heard of their existence in Florence. 

“At that time, the five ancient martial families were the Kleins, the Swallows, the Fullers, the Sheppards, and the Anders.” 

After a brief pause, Registus continued, “Andrius, your original last name was Klein. You were from the Kleins, which was the leading family among the five ancient martial families!” 

Andrius‘ eyes suddenly widened. 

Sure enough, the events from the past were connected to his family. 

“The Kleins was powerful and possessed a mysterious treasure map, making them the unquestioned top ancient martial family.” 

Registus sighed. “Unfortunately, there’s no such thing as eternal prosperity. Twenty years ago, after the four other families laid a long–term plan, they suddenly rose from the shadows and wiped out the Kleins together, aiming to seize their treasure map.” 

Registus glanced at Andrius as he spoke. 

Although Andrius remained silent, his facial muscles twitched continuously, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails almost pierced his palms. 

It was clear how enraged he was. 

A family massacre was a pain that cut to the bone! 

Registus continued, “After annihilating the Kleins, the Swallow family became the most powerful among the top four ancient martial families. 

“Of course, the Sheppard, Fuller, and Ander families are not to be underestimated either. 

“Even an elder among those families would be able to wipe the floor with the seemingly invincible and unparalleled Wolf King.” 

Halle frowned at those words, looking displeased. 

Noir’s expression also darkened as he felt indignant on Andrius‘ behalf 

However, Andrius fell into thought. He thought of the insect in his body. The insect was so powerful that even he could not contend with it, indicating the immense power of the person behind the insect. 

“To gain more resources and political favors within Florence, the Swallows sent a fake emperor to replace me. 

“I couldn’t compete with the Swallows, who were the leaders among the four ancient martial families, so I 

willingly relinquished my position and went into hiding, adopting a new identity until today.” 

Registus let out a long sigh as if a great burden had been lifted. 

Andrius digested all the information and gained a basic understanding of the events of the past, though the details remained unclear.
