Chapter 586 The Unusual Gilbert


    nche was taken aback, not understanding the meaning of Emrys‘ words. However, judging by his


    demeanor, he didn’t seem to be joking at all. Instead, he exuded a sense of confidence that seemed to


    come from deep within him.


    nche trusted him.


    At that moment, a figure approached from the distance. Upon seeing Halvard, who had fallen and was


    sitting on the ground, the figure paused and asked, “Mr. Wigen, what happened to you?”


    “Mr. Cunningham,” Halvard greeted the figure.


    He stood up, his demeanor noticeably more respectful.


    The person who arrived was none other than Gilbert.


    Only as he got closer did he notice that Halvard’s face was surprisingly red and swollen, with several


    bright red finger marks still visible. It was clear that Halvard had been pped, and that immediately


    aroused Gilbert’s suspicion.


    Who would dare to p Halvard in this ce?


    Who has the audacity to p him?


    Gilbert scanned his surroundings and noticed that there were only students milling about. Emrys was


    the only grandmaster present.


    However, as a Temperer grandmaster, it was unlikely that Emrys would have reduced Halvard, a bona


    fide Manifestor grandmaster, to such a state.


    The doubts in Gilbert’s heart deepened.


    It wasn’t until Halvard recounted the recent events that Gilbert had no choice but to believe that Emrys


    was responsible for Halvard’s sorry state.


    Moreover, Halvard had no strength to fight back throughout the entire process.


    With an amused expression, Gilbert said, “So it turns out Emrys isn’t a Temperer grandmaster after all.


    You really are full of surprises!”


    Emrys?


    MMM

    Everyone present, including Halvard, was momentarily stunned.


    When did Gilbert be close enough to Emrys to call him by his first name? Aren’t they supposed to


    be love rivals?


    Emrys chuckled and replied, “Ah, I’ve been hiding this for so long, yet you all still managed to uncover


    the truth. All right, I’lle clean. Indeed, I am not a Temperer grandmaster.”


    “Emrys.”


    With a sincere expression, Gilbert continued, “I was at fault during Chancellor Diaz’s promotion


    banquet. I hope you’re kind enough to forgive me.”


    “Oh?” Emrys raised an eyebrow, saying, “Why would you say that, Mr. Cunningham? If I recall


    correctly, you were quite unwilling to ept defeat at that time. You even threatened to settle the score


    with meter, didn’t you?”


    Gilbert replied, “Everyone has fleeting moments of foolishness. What I said was out of frustration.


    When I returned home, my father gave me a stern lecture. I reflected on it and realized that I was in the


    wrong.”


    He chuckled, appearing as though he had genuinely reflected on his actions and was ready to bury the


    hatchet with Emrys over a sharedugh.


    Emrys spoke calmly, “To recognize and correct one’s mistakes is a great virtue. I see in you, Mr.


    Cunningham, a man destined for great things. I am certain you will live a long and fruitful life.”


    “Let’s hope so!”


    Gilbert shifted his eyes, looking towards nche. His gaze was clear as he said, “Ms. Langford, you


    were right to choose Emrys. He is indeed the better man.”


    nche didn’t know how to respond as a strange feeling swelled in her chest.


    Today, Gilbert seemed a bit off. In the past, every time Gilbert saw her, he would casually call her by


    her first name. But just now, he surprisingly referred to her as Ms. Langford.


    This was like a rogue who one day suddenly transformed into a polite gentleman.


    It felt too unreal.


    Gilbert continued to maintain a friendly demeanor as he turned to Halvard and said, “Mr.


    2/3


    Wigen, both Emrys and Ms. Langford are my friends. If there’s any discord between you, I hope it can


    be resolved quickly.”


    “I understand,” Halvard replied.


    Gilbert, being the son of the Central Chanaean Martial Arts Alliance, made Halvard nod in agreement,


    even though he secretly felt displeased.


    “In that case, I won’t bother you any longer.”


    Gilbert politely nodded towards Emrys and the others before leaving the training field. He found a stone


    bench at the edge and sat down.


    Halvard looked at nche with aplex expression and said, “Since Mr. Cunningham has spoken in


    your favor, let’s move past the previous events. Your training for today is over. Rest well.”


    After speaking, he nced warily at Emrys and then turned to walk in Gilbert’s direction.


    Not having to worry about being expelled from the academy was a relief, but nche fell silent, feeling


    a sense of unease stirring in her heart.


    The main cause of her unease was Gilbert’splete change in personality.


    When things were abnormal, there was usually a darker underlying reason.
