Love At The Wrong Table

Ashton wanted to fire again, but Amethyst hit her on the chest and sent her

flying backward. Even her gun had been snatched away.

“Ashton!!” Ashton’s companions cried out in surprise and rushed to check on

her.

Azure and Ash blocked their path.

“Hand over the Dragon Tome if you want to live.” Azure extended a hand and

marched toward them.

Roselynn was clutching the Dragon Tome. She knew her group would be

doomed if she handed it over to the envoys.

She made a decisive decision at that critical moment.

Before the envoys could react, she tore the scripture apart and threw it down

the cliff.

“You b*stard!” Aora was furious. He rushed over to catch the fragments. Even

though he was a powerful fighter, he couldn’t catch all of them.

“D*mn it! Kill that woman!” Amethyst barked an order.

Azure and Ash got into the ready stance. Their faces were twisted with

murderous intentions.

Julian shook his head in defeat. What a fierce decision. She’d rather destroy

the scripture than hand it to the criminals.

At that critical moment, Aora intercepted them. “Stop!”

Roselynn sneered. “We have memorized the scripture. You can never recover

its context if you kill us.”

She’d rather survive than die miserably. She knew bluffing to the merciless

envoys was the only way to survive.

Otherwise, she and her companions would be doomed if the Dragon Tome

fell into their hands.

She had to ensure that her group survived until Emmanuel came to rescue

them.

“You do have some tricks up your sleeve.” Aora looked at her with a hint of

respect and coldly stated, “Still, you may end up in a fate worse than death.

Are you ready for the consequences?”

She snorted and looked away without saying a word.

“Take them back!” Aora ordered. “Whether they have memorized the Dragon

Tome or not doesn’t matter. By holding them hostages, considering their

relationship with Emmanuel, it’ll benefit us in the future.”

“Yes!” His three henchmen immediately agreed. They stepped forward to

take one person each.

Meanwhile, the other side of the mountain rumbled. The ground shook,

indicating a tremendous force.

Although Gwain’s group departed later than Roselynn’s group, they arrived at

the foothills around the same time due to being trained fighters.

They didn’t run into each other earlier as they took different paths. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

Taking advantage of the daylight, Gwain studied the Dragon Tome as well.

After memorizing it, he spent one hour practicing it.

But soon, he felt his breath quicken. He forced out the rage in his body with

flushed cheeks and avoided the fate of going mad and blowing himself up.

“What’s wrong, Mr. Gwain?” His companions hurried to his side.

“It’s a fake Dragon Tome,” Gwain concluded furiously.

“What?” Hank added, “Could you have misunderstood it or practiced with the

wrong method?”

Wyatt retorted, “Mr. Gwain is the once–in–a–century genius in the martial arts

world. He comprehends and learns the martial arts techniques easily. He

won’t have misunderstood it.”

The Dragon Tome is Destroyed

Hank let out a strained chuckle. “I was just kidding. Even the most experienced

fighter makes mistakes.”

Gwain glared at Hank, displeased with the comments. Lastly, he refrained

from adding anything and fixed his gaze ahead.

The next moment, the Great Four Envoys appeared before them.

“Oh? Fancy to meet you here. Aren’t you guys Teddy’s lapdogs?” Hank

mocked.

As a retainer of the Lannister family, he was quite familiar with the Tanner

family and Teddy Tanner.

He knew Aora too. The other man was a renowned figure in the martial arts

world before becoming the envoy. Nobody expected him to serve Teddy

loyally.

Amethyst was the only woman among the four envoys. She was

hot–tempered. When Hank insulted them, she immediately wanted to fight

him.

Reaching out to stop her, Aora turned to Gwain. “Mr. Gwain, were you

practicing the Dragon Tome?”

“It’s none of your business.” Gwain rose to his feet sternly and tried to leave.

Although he looked down upon Teddy’s lapdogs, he didn’t want to fight them

either.
