Chapter 418: The Truth Revealed, Meet Master Mason



Saint Marie of Hill of Swords did not come early or late, but appeared right at this critical juncture, which was completely unexpected and scared everyone present.

Especially Ernest Mason!

The smile on Ernest Mason’s face froze as his legs went soft, and he almost fell on the cold floor!

Clearly!

Not only was Saint Marie of Hill of Swords alive, she had come and overheard their conversation, so she knew of Ernest Mason’s schemes. That was why her voice was icy cold and very unhappy as she scolded out loud from afar!

This… how could this be?

Ernest Mason was now extremely panicked!

“Saint…”

“Saint Marie!”

“Good heavens, please bless us, please bless Saint Marie! She’s not dead, she’s actually still alive! Thank goodness, hahaha…”

Some were happy while others were worried!

Saint Marie’s sudden appearance instantly changed the atmosphere and situation in the rest room. Just now Ernest Mason was elated while several other old fellows who also coveted the master’s position were secretly unhappy. But now, Ernest Mason was scared out of his wits while those old fellows became reinvigorated!

“Saint Marie!”

“We’re here! Saint Marie…”

With Saint Marie present, those old fellows no longer feared Ernest Mason. Excited, they shot Ernest Mason contemptuous looks before turning and hurrying out of the rest room to welcome Saint Marie!

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the dozen people in the rest room had left!

“Mr. Mason! This…”

The remaining old fellows were in an awkward position. They were normally close to Ernest Mason, hoping to take this opportunity to flatter him so they could rise with the tide once he became the master. But now… they had struck out!

Should they leave? They were afraid of offending Ernest Mason. But if they didn’t leave, they were afraid Saint Marie would hold them accountable!

They were caught in a dilemma! Their faces were as ugly as if they had just eaten dog crap!

“Let’s go!” Ernest Mason’s heart had sunk to the bottom. Gritting his teeth, he steeled himself and said, “Let’s go welcome Saint Marie!”

After speaking, he strode out of the rest room!

Trevor Mason and the remaining old fellows exchanged looks, took a deep breath, and could only follow him out. They had just walked out of the door when they raised their heads to see two familiar figures walking down the corridor toward them!

That’s right, there were two people!

One was a woman in white clothes, graceful like a fairy – naturally Saint Marie. The other was a man with white hair and a wolf’s head mask – Sean!

Seeing this, the already apprehensive people were even more shocked and incredulous, their eyes wide open in disbelief!

What the heck was going on here?

Not only was Saint Marie alive, General Wolf Sean was also still alive. And the two of them, who had just fought at the peak of Hill of Swords this morning, were now walking together???

In an instant, a huge wave of shock rose in everyone’s hearts!!!

Sean and Saint Marie were very fast. In just over a dozen seconds, they had come down from Hill of Swords and arrived in front of everyone. The first few old fellows who had come out immediately cupped their hands and said respectfully to Saint Marie, “Welcome, Saint Marie!”

“Welcome, Saint Marie!”

They were extremely deferential to Saint Marie.

This was the difference between Saint Marie and Ernest Mason, as well as between someone nearing the Bright Realm and a Complete Stage cultivator. In this dog-eat-dog world, strength represented everything!

The stronger one was, the more respect one could command!

Saint Marie used a white gauze to cover her face, but even so, one could still see the bruises and swellings on her cheeks and neck through the gauze. This made the old fellows’ hearts twitch violently!

Damn!

She must have been beaten up by General Wolf Sean, right?

That was vicious!

However, although they were shocked and puzzled, they didn’t dare say much or ask much when they sneakily glanced at Sean standing beside Saint Marie!

Saint Marie ignored the old fellows and looked directly at Ernest Mason. “I seem to have heard you say earlier that you want to become the Lord of Hall of Swords and look into the internal secrets of Hill of Swords. Is that right?”

“I… I did it because everyone nominated me unanimously. It was also for the sake of Hill of Swords’ safety and Swordland’s people. Please investigate clearly, Saint Marie!” Ernest Mason quickly explained, sweating.

“Please investigate clearly!” Trevor Mason and the other old fellows chimed in.

“Investigate clearly?” Saint Marie sneered. “I don’t have the time or mood to look into your dirty dealings!”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Now, I’m giving you a chance. Answer my questions truthfully and that will be the end of it. But if you dare to lie and deceive me, we’ll settle past accounts!!”

The truth about King Ron’s death and the great vengeance of the sisters in the utopia were at stake, so Saint Marie did not dare be negligent at all. She spoke very gravely to pressure Ernest Mason and the others!

As she spoke, a formidable aura of Bright Energy even erupted from Saint Marie’s body to deter them!

“Yes, of course!” Ernest Mason and the others were shocked and terrified, with cold sweat pouring from their foreheads as they nodded hurriedly. “Saint Marie can ask anything, we will tell the whole truth without reservation!”

“Good!” Saint Marie asked impatiently, “Has anything major happened in the capital recently?”

Even though Sean’s earlier quarrel with Ernest Mason and the others was unhappy and he had killed people from the ten great families, Saint Marie was still very cautious with Sean present. She did not directly ask about King Ron’s life or death, but made a roundabout probe instead!

After all, if King Ron was really dead, what could be bigger news than that?

“Huh?” Saint Marie’s words made Ernest Mason and the others pause in surprise. They looked at Sean, thinking: My Saint Marie, General Wolf Sean is standing right next to you. He’s the undisputed protagonist of recent events in the capital!

With him present, why are you asking me???

“Speak up!” Noticing Ernest Mason’s gaze, Saint Marie grew a little impatient!

“I’ll speak… According to the information we received, General Wolf Sean entered the capital about two months after retiring from the north. He killed off several big families including the Xiao family. Later, he beheaded the Beast King Lord Fergus of South Forest in Prince Adam’s residence…”

“There was turmoil in South Forest. General Wolf Sean was personally appointed by His Majesty King Ron as Grand General Who Pacifies the South to lead troops with Crown Prince Ashby to South Forest to quell the unrest. As a result, Crown Prince Ashby died tragically while General Mason was branded a traitor and escorted back to the capital!”

“Just two days ago… news came from the capital that a massive battle seemed to have taken place in the imperial city. The North Kingdom delegation led by Andrew Heisler was completely wiped out in the imperial city. The royal guards suffered heavy casualties and even His Majesty King Ron was…”

“Was…” Ernest Mason truthfully recounted everything he knew, but when it came to King Ron, he became hesitant. He looked at Saint Marie, then at Sean, his heart thumping rapidly in anxiety, afraid of offending either of them with a wrong word!

Damn!

Ernest Mason currently had no idea about the relationship between Sean and Saint Marie, much less Saint Marie’s purpose in asking these things. In complete ignorance, how could he know what to say and what not to say?

Damn it, this was too difficult!!!

“Keep talking!” Saint Marie’s pupils constricted sharply as she pressed, “What happened to that scoundrel King Ron???”

Scoundrel? Ernest Mason was startled. Hesitantly, he said, “He… he died…”

Died!!!

Although she had mentally prepared herself earlier, hearing the news of King Ron’s death from Ernest Mason’s mouth still made Saint Marie’s heart quiver violently!

That scoundrel King Ron was dead!

Really dead!

It looked like Sean had not lied to her earlier!

So Saint Marie tried to calm herself and glanced at Sean before continuing, “How did he die?”

“This… Saint Marie, the capital was sealed at that time so outsiders couldn’t enter. There are many rumors among the masses about how His Majesty died, I can’t confirm either!”

“After King Ron died, King Roscoe ascended the throne and announced to the world that King Ron had perished in the chaos of fighting the North Kingdom delegation!”

“However… I have some connections in the capital who told me they heard from the imperial guards present at King Ron’s death that actually… King Ron died at the hands of…”

At this point, Ernest Mason paused and looked at Sean again.

Ernest Mason paused and looked at Sean again. Seeing that Sean stood there unmoving like a mountain and did not seem angry, he steeled himself and continued, “Died at the hands of General Wolf Sean and his wife Cecilia!”

“As a result, Cecilia was gravely injured and fell unconscious while General Wolf Sean’s hair turned white overnight…”

Unbeknownst to Ernest Mason, he had only known of King Ron’s death and not the details. By chance, Sean had suddenly appeared in Swordland. After the fight this morning, Ernest Mason saw through Sean’s identity, so he immediately contacted his connections in the capital and after much twists and turns, found out part of the truth!

In a way, this accidental turn of events helped Sean.

Otherwise, if Ernest Mason had told Saint Marie that King Ron perished together with the North Kingdom delegation, Sean would have been at a loss for words!

After speaking, Ernest Mason and the others watched Saint Marie’s reaction anxiously, not even daring to breathe loudly. However, her reaction was completely beyond their expectations!

She cried!

What did they see?

Good heavens, they could hardly believe their eyes. Two streams of clear tears spilled from Saint Marie’s eyes, wetting her somewhat bruised and swollen cheeks, as well as the white gauze over her face, causing the gauze to stick directly to her cheeks!

One could see Saint Marie was crying sadly, so sadly that her body even seemed to tremble slightly!

What the hell was going on???

Ernest Mason and the others were completely dumbfounded, like a bunch of clueless monks at a loss.

Saint Marie cried for about two minutes. Sean and Ernest Mason’s group merely watched silently, not disturbing her, until two minutes later when Sean spoke. “You lost!”

That’s right, Saint Marie had lost the bet with Sean.

But Saint Marie was not sad or upset at losing at all. On the contrary, she was tearfully grateful and willing to admit defeat!

“I understand!” Saint Marie nodded without bothering to wipe the tears on her cheeks. She said to Ernest Mason and the others, “I declare from now on that he, General Wolf Sean, is the Lord of Hall of Swords!”

“He is your master!”

“And your only master!”

Boom!!!

Saint Marie’s voice was not loud and even carried a sob, but it was like thunderclaps and lightning out of the blue to Ernest Mason and the others, leaving them completely dumbstruck!

General Wolf Sean… the Lord of Hall of Swords???

This one hundred and eighty degree reversal was too sudden, catching Ernest Mason and the others totally off guard. They stared blankly at Saint Marie and Sean, feeling their brain cells were insufficient.

Gulp!

Ernest Mason and the others swallowed hard. Their minds unconsciously thought: “Could it be that Saint Marie lost in the fight at the peak of Hill of Swords this morning, so as the price, she directly handed over the control of Hall of Swords and Hill of Swords to General Wolf Sean???”

This was the most reasonable explanation they could think of!

“Saint Marie, you…” Still shocked, Ernest Mason and the others wanted to try and dissuade her, but before they could speak, even more flabbergasting scene occurred next!

They saw…

Thump!

Accompanied by a sound, Saint Marie suddenly turned and faced Sean without any hesitation. Right in front of Ernest Mason and the others, she knelt down before Sean!

That’s right, she knelt down before Sean!!!

Then, while Ernest Mason and the others gawked foolishly, before they had recovered from their shock, they heard Saint Marie’s somewhat choked voice as she knelt before Sean. “Previously, I was blind and misunderstood Mr. Mason!”

“I hope Mr. Mason is magnanimous and forgives my injustice!”

“Also, I ask Mr. Mason to take charge of Hall of Swords and Hill of Swords, to govern Swordland. I am willing from my heart to serve Mr. Mason as my master. As long as master gives the order, I will spare no effort!”

“If I rebel, may heaven and earth not tolerate me!!!”

Boom!

Saint Marie’s tone was very firm. The moment her voice fell, she heavily kowtowed by knocking her head heavily on the cold floor below Sean’s feet!

Gulp! Gulp gulp gulp…

The sound of frantic swallowing rang out. Ernest Mason and the others only felt chilled all over, with the veins on their foreheads bulging and popping. They really had never dreamed that events could unfold to this stage, with Saint Marie handing control of Hall of Swords and Hill of Swords to Sean, and even submitting and kneeling to him herself!

The key was, Saint Marie had already submitted to General Wolf Sean. She had even kowtowed and apologized to Sean. Then what about them?

“Why are you standing there foolishly?” Without raising her head, Saint Marie berated coldly, “Hurry and kneel to greet your Master Mason!”

Thump! Thump!

Two old fellows’ legs went soft and their bodies uncontrollably knelt down before Sean as they called out in trembling voices, “Master Mason!”

“Master Mason!”

“Master Mason!”

Soon, a large group was kneeling before Sean.

The last to kneel was Ernest Mason. Groveling at Sean’s feet, Ernest Mason’s heart bled especially when he shouted out “Master Mason”.

Damn!

I’m also a Mason, okay? Just before Saint Marie and General Wolf Sean appeared, all these old fools and bastards were calling me Master Mason, okay?
