Chapter 1046 Vicious Disciples
After packing everything, Matthew looked at Felix. “Now, do you believe my words?”
With a long sigh, Felix slowly nodded. Standing up, he said in a low voice, “I suppose I’ll leave now, Mr. Larson. I have something important to tend to! But worry not, as I will not go back on what I have promised you!”
Felix’s words made Matthew realize that he finally agreed to become the head of the family.
My plan has finally succeeded! With the support of the Lewis Family, three out of the Ten Greatest Families are on my side!
After Felix’s departure, Matthew went into a chamber. To keep Felix from finding out, he kept the five people inside the chamber. Inside the sound proof house was a chamber that was in the deepest corner of the house, making it almost isolated from the outside world.
As soon as Matthew stepped inside the place, a strong stench of blood wafted toward him. There were only three people left on the floor.
This made Matthew curious as he closed in for a better look. The people in question were Crow, Charmine, and a young man. The three people were drenched in blood. Crow, who had multiple stab wounds around his chest, was completely lifeless.
The young man had also stopped breathing, leaving Charmine the only one who was still hanging on by a thread. But she was also on the edge of life or death as she had a knife stuck in her chest.
It wasn’t because of Charmine’s tenacity that she lived. Rather, it was due to Matthew, who sealed her blood vessels just now, which slowed down her digestion of the curse powder, preventing her from dying a horrible death.
Because of this, even when she got stabbed multiple times, she did not lose much blood, keeping her alive. Yet, with such grievous wounds, it would be too late to save her even if she got admitted to the hospital!
While propping Charmine up, Matthew also inserted three silver needles into her acupuncture points, helping her preserve what was left of her life.
“What happened here?” asked Matthew in a low voice.
Looking at the lifeless Crow on the ground, Charmine sobbed. “Master, he used the soulbound curse to help the two traitors get rid of the needles. But, they… they were eyeing for the soulbound curse that Master possessed and killed him for it.”
“Not only that, they even dug out Reese’s soulbound curse, killing him in the process. They then proceeded to stab me multiple times so as not to leave any witnesses.”
Matthew’s expression darkened as he glanced at Crow with shock inside. He had underestimated Crow and did not think that his curse was so strong that he could release himself from the seal. Yet, what vicious people he had for disciples.
After their own master saved them, they actually killed him and snatched his soulbound curse away. When the user was killed, the soulbound curse would lose its owner. When that happened, this treasure could be freely taken by others.
It was natural that people would be hungry for a powerful soulbound curse such as Crow’s.
Suddenly, Charmine grabbed onto Matthew’s collar and said tremblingly, “M-Matthew, please help me…”
Frowning, Matthew answered, “Help you? Why? Have you somehow forgotten that we are enemies?”
Trembling, Charimine replied, “I’m going to die anyway. Whether we’re allies or enemies is unimportant now. I-I still have a silver fox that grew up alongside me since its infancy; it is a subspecies of the voodoo clan. I… can give you the silver fox. But in return, you must help me…”
The words made Matthew’s expression slightly shift. A silver fox. Quite a rare item.
“What do you want me to do?”
Turning her head, Charmine looked longingly at her master and uttered, “The voodoo clansmen always placed importance in one’s return to his place of origin. H-Help me bring my master and Reese’s bones back to Orleans, back to Thousand Hills. If you can do that, then I can rest in peace after death.”
This made Matthew respect her. Originally, Charmine did not leave a favorable impression on him. But, it was this sentence that moved him.
In her final moments, instead of pleading with him to save her, she only thought of wanting his master and martial brother’s bodies to return to their hometown.
Although this woman practices the seductive charm curse, which plays with people’s feelings, she herself is actually a person who emphasizes loyalty!
