Chapter 2250 The Five Sages

“You swore not to kill me, Emmanuel!”

Gautier’s voice was steady, but there was a flicker of unease in his eyes. He wasn’t afraid–he knew Emmanuel kept his word.

Emmanuel smirked. “I did. What’s your next move?”

Gautier straightened, still holding onto Teddy. “Teddy might be down, but he’s still my master. It’s my duty to protect him.”

A scoff left Emmanuel’s lips. “Cut the crap. You’re not here to save Teddy. You’re after the Chamber of Commerce seal, aren’t you?”

Before Gautier could deny it, Emmanuel struck. A low, guttural roar rippled through the air as he activated the Dragon Capture Technique.

Gautier’s grip tightened on instinct, but it was pointless. Crack!

The seal crumbled in his hands, reduced to dust before Emmanuel could even touch it.

Irritation flickered across Emmanuel’s face. He hadn’t expected Gautier’s strength to be this sharp and

“Looks like Teddy put a lot into training you. Pity you turned on him anyway,” Emmanuel muttered in disguise.

Teddy, barely conscious, let out a shallow breath. His expression was unreadable. “Gautier… I don’t blame -you. Just promise me one thing–avenge me.”

Gautier didn’t answer.

If he were sentimental, those words might’ve stirred something in him. Yet, he knew Teddy too well–this was just another manipulation tactic.
