Chapter 387 The Chief
Upon returning to the real world, Matteo remained motionless for a long time, as if his soul had left his
body.
The hidden fighters around him were confused.
Matteo had used an illusion technique specifically on Emrys, so they were unaware of what had
happened within the illusionary world.
What puzzled them was that Emrys, the man from Chanaca, showed no change in expression
throughout the entire process. On the other hand, their vice chief suddenly found tears streaming down
his face, filled with guilt and self–reproach.
They were unaware of what had transpired.
Within the illusion, Matteo, under the impression that it was himself, had pushed his own son into the
lava. This was the reason for his sorrowful tears.
Emrys had already started to move, but Matteo remained frozen. To the onlookers, it seemed as
though Emrys had broken free from the illusion, while their vice chief was still immersed in his own
world of illusions.
It was extremely eerie.
At that moment, Emrys spoke slowly. “I have deciphered your illusion technique. Shouldn’t you. fulfill
the condition I proposed carlier?”
Matteo’s body swayed slightly, snapping him back to reality.
It was then that everyone realized their vice chief was not still immersed in the world of illusions, but
simply stunned into silence.
Something profoundly shocking must have urred in the world of illusion to have reduced the vice.
chief to such a state.
What exactly was it?
They didn’t know.

Matteo couldn’t possibly tell them. Instead, he ordered everyone to leave. Then, he knelt before Emrys
and said, “I’m willing to ept the loss in the bet. From today onwards, you are my master.”
Emrys nodded in satisfaction, taking a drop of fresh blood from Matteo’s index finger and sealing it
within the sigil.
Afterpleting this, the chief of the Hidden Fighters Alliance entered the room, apanied by
Rosalie and several highly skilled elite hidden fighters.
Rosalie had informed the chief of everything she knew.
Upon entering, the chief immediately disyed strong hostility towards Emrys. The few upper–level
hidden fighters behind him swiftly surrounded Emrys.
ough the chief had a rough idea of what was going on, he sternly demanded, “Matteo, what happened?
Matteo respectfully approached the chief and said. “This man from Chanaea has killed my son, but I
have made a promise to him. As long as he can break my illusion technique. I will no longer hold this
matter against him.”
Of course, he couldn’t admit that he had epted Emrys as his master.
“You may leave now!”
The chief’s eyes fell upon Emrys. He coldly dered, ‘Chanacan, Matteo may have chosen to overlook
your actions, but we, the Hidden Fighters Alliance, will not let you off so easily.”
The chief couldn’t stand by while his subordinates were being bullied.
Moreover, this individual from Chanaea had caused amotion within the Hidden Fighters Alliance.
disying excessive arrogance. If he were allowed to leave unscathed, the Hidden Fighters Alliance
would be theughingstock of the entire Jetroina.
Therefore, the arrogant man from Chanaca had to be killed here today.
Upon hearing the chief’s words, Matteo opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something. However,
after ncing at theposed Emrys, he ultimately chose to remain silent and quietly retreated to one
side.
A chilling murderous intent emanated from the chief, making him even stronger than Matteo.
The other top–level hidden fighters in the vicinity were also biding their time, waiting for the ideal
moment tounch their attack.
In the meantime, Emrys appeared calm and collected as always.
In fact, he even took the initiative to confidently step forward, making his way towards the leader of the
Hidden Fighters Alliance. With a slightugh, he remarked, “Your mask is truly remarkable. I wonder if
the scar beneath it has fully healed by now.”
Without pausing for a second after uttering those words, Emrys continued walking straight past the
chief of the Hidden Fighters Alliance and headed towards the exit.
