Chapter 671 Unexpected Gains
Emrys‘ lips curled up in amusement as he looked at Hollie and asked, “So, Hollie, what is Ms. Morris‘ background?”
“Haha! There’s no harm in telling you that we are all students of Cloudmist Academy. Sylvia is from the Morris family of Cloudmist Academy, while I am from the Stewart family. We have the same teacher,” Hollie said proudly.
Sylvia, however, wore a cold expression and said somewhat angrily, “Hollie, why did you tell him that?”
“It’s not really a secret, so it doesn’t matter if I told him. Besides…” Hollie pulled Sylvia aside, sneakily observing Emrys. She whispered, “If you’re not interested in him, maybe I can pursue him. Don’t you think he’s handsome?”
Hollie winked at Sylvia, her expression ambiguous. Even with a shaved head, he’s so handsome. Imagine how much more handsome he would be with hair. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Hollie was quite fond of him.
However, Emrys was feeling conflicted at this moment. Cloudmist Academy? The Morris. family? This is truly astonishing. While accompanying Caylie on a trip to Crimson Sun Sect, I unexpectedly stumbled upon clues about Ninette’s origins, and she’s from Cloudmist Academy. The gains I’ve made these past few days have been truly abundant!
Lost in thought, Emrys was interrupted by the first young man who suddenly said, “Which elder are you a mentee of? I’ve never seen you before.”
The young man, dressed in the attire of Crimson Sun Sect, was older and eyed Emrys with suspicion, doubting his identity.
Over the past few days, he was the first mentee from Crimson Şun Sect to have suspicions. about Emrys‘ identity.
Emrys remained calm and retorted, “There are many mentees in Crimson Sun Sect. It’s normal that you haven’t seen me before. You can’t discriminate against me just because I’m bald.”
“What a joke!” The young man sneered. “Indeed, there are countless mentees in Crimson Sun Sect. It’s normal for me not to know them all. However, there isn’t anyone who doesn’t know me.”
Emrys couldn’t help but take a second look at the young man. “Acting, so arrogant?” he thought. This guy is really full of himself, daring to claim that there isn’t a single menter in Crimson Sun Sect who doesn’t know him. He seems to be a prominent figure.
“Answer me. Which elder are you a mentee to?” the young man questioned again, his tone becoming more pressing, his suspicion deepening.
After some thought, Emrys said, “I don’t know who you are, but you can’t doubt my identity based on that alone. Before you question me, why don’t you introduce yourself first?”
Emrys engaged in conversation with the young man in a playful manner.
However, one thing was true. He was genuinely curious. What kind of status does this young man possess to utter such narcissistic words?
The young man arrogantly glanced at Emrys and proudly said, “I am Jonah Zorn, the eldest mentee directly taught by Mr. Gallagher. In other words, I am the eldest among all mentees of Crimson Sun Sect. I can’t believe you don’t recognize me.”
He scrutinized Emrys, attempting to detect any signs of panic on his face.
However, he was disappointed.
This naturally caused some surprise.
That day, a teacher from Cloudmist Academy, accompanied by a few students, visited Crimson Sun Sect. Their purpose was to meet the inheritor of Azure King’s will.
The teacher from Cloudmist Academy had a strong bond with Quincey. When they were alone, they often indulged in reminiscing about the past. As a result, Quincey requested Jonah Zorn to take a group of students from Cloudmist Academy on a tour.
Soon enough, they came across Emrys.
Whenever disciples of the Crimson Sun Sect saw Jonah, they would always address him. respectfully as their senior.
Jonah felt a surge of pride.
This feeling was particularly heightened when he was accompanied by someone as beautiful as Sylvia. The constant respectful addresses from his juniors only served to enhance Jonah’s status: Secretly, Jonah took great pleasure in this continuous flattery.
