Chapter 1103“How do you think I’m able to defeat the Sullivans and wipe out your assassin organization?” Zeke
retorted.
Huh?
The Demon’s expression froze gradually.
He’s the Great Marshal?
No, this is outrageous! It’s impossible!
“You still don’t believe me? Do I really have to spell everything out for you?” Zeke took out a seal and
threw it to the ground.
Staring at the seal at his feet, the Demon was overwhelmed with shock.
noveldramaThe jade seal adorned with the sculpture of an amethyst kirin was the Great Marshal’s Seal. One
simple wave of the seal could summon all the troops in the country!
There was also a saying that no one would be able to fight against the jade kirin if the legendary animal
appeared on earth one day.
He’s really the Great Marshal!
Heavens! I’m digging my own grave by defying his orders! But I guess I would have no regrets even if I die now! I have finally met my idol!
Zeke interrupted the man’s thoughts coldly, “Can you tell me about Lacey’s background now?”
After a moment of hesitation, the Demon eventually nodded.
The reason for his previous defiance was that he initially thought Zeke was incapable of protecting
Lacey.
However, Zeke’s identity as the Great Marshal convinced the Demon.
He said, “Actually, Lacey is from the Thisleton family, the family next in line to the throne. Her father is
Ares, the lord of the Thisletons!”
Zeke couldn’t help but draw a cold breath.
It had never occurred to him that Lacey Hinton would be of such prominent background.
The Thisleton family was considered as royalty.
Even the Sullivans were nothing compared to them, not to mention that Ares was the most powerful
person in Eurasia until Zeke appeared in the picture.
Ares’ influence was only second to his.
After regaining his composure, Zeke ordered, “Continue.” The Demon said, “Ms. Hinton’s biological mother came from a humble background. She was a servant
of the Thisleton household. By chance, she conceived Ares’ child, so he had no choice but to marry
her.”
“After the birth of Ms. Hinton, Ares took in a concubine. This woman was from a noble family too.
Jealous of Ms. Hinton’s mother, a mere servant, she constantly picked on her and tried to get rid of
her.”
“One day, when Ares was not around, the concubine sent someone to assassinate Ms. Hinton and her
mother. Luckily, Ms. Hinton’s mother had a premonition and fled with her child.”
“I was a bodyguard of the Thisletons and was responsible for their safety, so I left with them. But the
concubine sent her men after us eventually.”
“At the most critical moment, Ms. Hinton’s mother jumped off a cliff to distract our pursuers. Although I
escaped with Ms. Hinton successfully, I was badly injured. Luckily, an old couple saved us. Thereafter, I
left Ms. Hinton under their care. They are known to you as Ms. Hinton’s parents now.”
“However, there are people speculating about Ms. Hinton’s true identity now. If word gets out that she is
a Thisleton, it will land her in grave danger. That is the reason I tried to erase our traces and
memories.”
Realization dawned on Zeke.
He sighed as he walked towards the window and looked up at the starry sky.
When Ares lost to him a long time ago, he retreated with his family to somewhere discreet. However, Zeke was certain that Ares would find the opportunity to defeat him at all costs, including
recruiting the help of foreigners.
