“You don't have to blame yourself, Mr. Williams. Truth be told, Thomas and I aren't related by blood. In order to
leave my hometown to form the army of the North, I had to compete for my family inheritance. That's why I
adopted Thomas and falsely claimed that he was my son. Actually, I've never even met him before,” explained
Brantley.
Zeke's guilt immediately disappeared after listening to the man.
When the group finally arrived at Muraco, it was already dark.
A bonfire party was held there to celebrate the momentous day, and members of the clan were dancing around in
traditional wear.
Even Yazmin was dancing among the other clan members.
Her moves were so elegant that she quickly became the most eye-catching dancer that evening.

smile was enough to garner just as much attention.
Yazmin threw herself at Zeke the moment she saw him. “Elder, you're here! Come dance with us!”
“I'm good. You guys have fun.” Worried that Sole Wolf and the others would make fun of him for dancing, Zeke
immediately turned down the invitation.
However, Yazmin would not give up so easily. “Come on, Mr. Williams! Just one dance. I'll teach you! Someone as
whip-smart as you should have no problem learning a few simple moves. I'm sure you'll look as graceful as a
swan.”
“Go on, Zeke. It's just a dance. Consider it a reward for us. I mean, we've fought alongside you for so many years.
We deserve this, no?” urged Sole Wolf.
Glaring at the man, Zeke ordered, “Shut up!”
Sole Wolf had no choice but to keep quiet then, but it did not stop him from being excited.
Like Sole Wolf, the others were smiling and just as eager to see Zeke dance.
“Look! Elder is here!” shouted a Muracan suddenly, and immediately, the others turned around to bow down to
Zeke.
“We welcome you, Elder!”
“Rise,” commanded Zeke in response.
The Muracans then got on their feet and stood respectfully before Zeke.
“Everyone, would you like to see our great Elder dance?” shouted Yazmin.
Naturally, all the Muracans responded with much enthusiasm.
“Elder, we welcome you to dance with us!”
“Drinking and dancing with you would be our honor, Elder!”

“Looks like the people are all expecting you to dance, Mr. Williams,” teased Erwen after walking up to Zeke, who
could only turn to Sole Wolf and the others for help.
However, the group deliberately looked the other way because they had no intention of saving the man from the
predicament. This is the only chance we'll ever get to see the Great Marshal dance, so there's no way we're bailing
him out.
Discontented, Zeke swiftly struck Sole Wolf with his energy, causing the man to jump in pain.
“What's wrong, Sole Wolf? Do you need my help?” mocked Zeke.
“No, no, no. I just need to get off my butt and start dancing. Come, Yazmin. Show me some moves. We're going to
turn the party up!” blurted Sole Wolf before he hurriedly blended into the crowd.
After the Muracans saw Sole Wolf dancing, they immediately shifted their attention away from Zeke and started
dancing as well.
Before long, Ares and the others started joining everyone on the dance floor.
