Chapter 567 Indebted
Therefore, regardless of the circumstances, Emrys could not overlook this matter.
He immediately dialed a special encrypted number.
Hazel was under investigation at the law enforcement department of Jipsdale Martial Arts Alliance
Headquarters.
She had been prohibited from traveling, and her position as the chancellor of the Jipsdale Martial Arts
Academy had been temporarily suspended. This indicated the extent of trouble the Mapleton family
had gotten into this time.
While the law–enforcers were interrogating Hazel, a robust figure entered the office of the chief of
Jipsdale Martial Arts Alliance Headquarters. His eyes were sharp like swords, radiating an aura of
authority without displaying anger.
The chief, Endre Hermansen, suddenly changed his expression and respectfully stood up.
The muscular man standing before him was Elduin, one of the divine warriors of the Thirty–six Sky
Generals, guardian of Chanaea.
Endre had to show his respect upon seeing Elduin.
“What has happened to the Mapleton family?”
Elduin was not one for many words and got straight to the point.
Initially, Endre was unaware of Elduin’s intentions. Upon hearing his question, he realized Elduin had
come for the Mapleton family. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, “General Elduin, why have you

suddenly taken an interest in the Mapleton family?”
“You just need to answer my question.”
Elduin slightly furrowed his brows, causing Endre’s expression to abruptly change. He quickly relayed
the matters of the Mapleton family truthfully.
It turned out that the Mapleton family was being investigated because Pascal had secretly cultivated a
group of sacrificial soldiers, all of whom were Venerable Ones.
The rules of the Martial Arts Alliancé dictated that every member, from the chief to ordinary law–
enforcers, had to register their forces for easy control. Private cultivation of forces was strictly
prohibited.

This was a major violation.
However, rules were not set in stone.
Where there was light, darkness was destined to follow.
It was true that Pascal was not the only one within the Martial Arts Alliance who had cultivated private
forces. To some extent, everyone had their private forces, including Endre himself.
This was an unspoken rule.
It existed but couldn’t be openly discussed.
The only mistake Pascal made was exposing his private forces.
It all began when Pascal sent someone to assassinate Emrys.
In reality, the Venerable One who appeared at the Langford residence was one of the sacrificial
soldiers cultivated by Pascal.
The Jipsdale Martial Arts Alliance Headquarters was deeply involved in political maneuvering, and
whoever first discovered the other’s weakness would gain the upper
hand.
When Pascal lost his composure and sent a sacrificial soldier to assassinate Emrys, he had already
become a target of his opponents.
As for who those opponents were, no one could say for sure.
Perhaps it was one person, two people, or a group.
No one could say definitively.
If they exposed Pascal’s weakness and presented the evidence, his position as the guardian would be
vacated. Many people below him would be waiting for this opportunity to rise.
This was the harsh reality.

After roughly understanding the sequence of events, Elduin left the Jipsdale Martial Arts Alliance
Headquarters after leaving behind one statement.
“The Mapleton family once did me a favor.”
Upon hearing that, Endre’s pupils contracted sharply.
As soon as Elduin left, Endre immediately rushed to the law enforcement department. He looked at
Hazel, who had become worn out, and said, “Ms. Mapleton, it’s all right now. We believe you have
nothing to do with this matter.”
They investigated Hazel to determine if she was involved in cultivating private forces.
However, upon hearing Endre’s words, Hazel was taken aback, and a seed of doubt was planted in her
heart.
Pascal cultivated the sacrificial soldiers, and she definitely knew about it.
Even if she didn’t personally participate, she couldn’t escape the crime of harboring criminals. Just
earlier, they questioned her, attempting to extract crucial evidence.
However, Endre suddenly rushed over and decisively claimed she had nothing to do with this matter. It
was unduly suspicious no matter who saw it.
Hazel asked, “Can you tell me why?”
After considering it, Endre concluded that there was no need for secrecy, and thus he revealed,
“Earlier, General Elduin paid me a visit. He mentioned that the Mapleton family had once rendered him
a favor.”
We helped General Elduin?
Being one of the thirty–six guardians of Chanaea, Elduin possessed the power to effortlessly resolve
the Mapleton family’s predicament with a mere utterance from him.
