Chapter 997: Edina Hazegroove

Chapter 997: Edina Hazegroove

"Daniel"

The woman whom he had healed earlier rushed towards him without the fear of the Primitive Ape King and hugged him tightly before sobbing.

'...'

Master Elek and Nameless cultivator was shocked by the woman's actions. Moreover, they were puzzled at the reason why she called him 'Daniel'.

'Huh?'

Even Ajax was shocked and tried to come out of the woman's embrace; however, he hugged him so tightly that he could not move.

"Who are you? First, leave me, let's talk."

Seeing that the woman made his robe soak in her tears, Ajax asked the woman in a little voice.

"Edina, leave him first and let's talk."

Seeing that his wife was not leaving the young man who saved them, he convinced her to leave Ajax from her embrace.

'Is he really Daniel?'

At the same time, the man looked at Ajax with complex emotions.

"Hubby, we finally found Daniel. Let's go and inform Brother Edmond about this news."

The woman didn't leave Ajax from her embrace as though she was worried that the young man in her embrace might disappear if she removed her hands around him.

Instead, she turned towards her husband and told him with a face that was entirely covered with tears. Moreover, one could say with a single glance that she was clearly excited about finding Ajax.

"First, leave him and let's talk. It's impolite to hug others."

The man was a little annoyed; however, he knew why she was hugging Ajax. So, he could not shout at her; instead, he could only ask her a slow voice.

"It is our little Daniel. Is it wrong to hug him?"

The woman became a little angry as she retorted at her husband.

"Edina, stop arguing. Daniel is long gone right in front of her eyes. Stop bothering others."

The man finally could not take his wife's words and shouted at her to snap her out of her dilemma.

"..."

Hearing her husband shout at her, the woman was unable to say anything as she started crying before leaving Ajax out of her embrace.

"It's okay."

Soon, her husband took her into his embrace before calming her down in a sorrowful voice.

While saying those words, the man took her back to the place where he had placed a couple of stones to sit for his wife.

"Wait for a second."

Just as they took a couple of steps, Ajax asked them to stop.

"Sorry for my earlier actions, young man. I thought you were someone else."

The woman named Edina bowed as she apologized to Ajax fearing that her actions might have angered their saviour.

"It's okay. I want to ask you about something."

Ajax just shook his head as he replied to the couple.

"Of course, young man. We will answer anything you want to know."

Since Ajax was their saviour, the couple didn't mind answering anything he wanted to know.

Moreover, they could already guess what the young man wanted to ask them. So, the man was the first one to reply to Ajax.

As for the woman, she cleared the tears off her face and supported her husband.

"How are you related to Captain Edmond?"

Ajax finally asked the question, he wanted to ask them.

Earlier, Ajax heard that the woman mentioned Captain Edmond's name. Even though he didn't know whether the Edmond she mentioned and the Edmond he knew were the same, he wanted to know more about it.

'I think the 'Edmond' she mentioned might be the same one.'

Deep down, Ajax had that thought; however, Ajax wanted to confirm it.

Moreover, the couple was wearing the robes that were usually worn by the elders of the Fire sword sect.

So, of course, he wanted to know more about Edmond and his feud with the Fire sword sect.

"Huh?"

The man frowned when he heard Ajax's question.

However, the woman was a little surprised as she hurriedly asked Ajax with a face full ofo excitement, "Do you know Brother Edmond?"

"I guess so. But, I am not sure."

Ajax nodded his head and at the same time, he shook his head before asking, "What is the full name of the 'Edmond' you mentioned?"

Ajax asked that question since there was a very low chance of having the same name and surname.

"It is Hazegroove. My brother name is Edmond Hazegroove."

Unlike the man, the woman was a little excited and proud when she mentioned her brother's name.

"Then you are talking about Captain Edmond. Yes, I know him. Moreover, he helped me a lot when I started my cultivation."

Ajax nodded his head with a slight smile on his face.

Since she was the sister of Captain Edmond, he naturally felt a little close.

As for the help that Captain Edmond provided to Ajax were some basic knowledge and enough spirit stones.

However, that was a great help for Ajax when he didn't know anything.

"Great."

Hearing that Ajax knew her brother, Edina became excited as she asked, "He became a captain? When did he become that? Is his mercenary squad powerful? What is its ranking?"

Soon, she started asking more and more questions.

'What?'

Ajax was surprised at how many questions Edina had regarding her brother; however, when he thought about how she and her husband were turned into cursed beings, his surprise disappeared without a trace.

"His mercenary squad name is Hazegroove mercenary squad and it is one of the three top mercenary squads in the mercenary guild."

Ajax didn't get irritated at the questions; instead, he started answering them one by one.

With each answer she got from Ajax, Edina would be surprised because his brother was not that strong before they entered the Cursed Abyss for a mission from the sect.

"Since you know about Captain Edmond, then you must know about the hidden families, right? How are they faring against the Royal family and the other top powers of our province?"
