Chapter 590 Rowan Rapp
As soon as his words fell, he turned and ran outside, tearing his clothes to shreds, pretending to be in a
state of frantic desperation.
Watching Gilbert’s retreating figure, Emrys understood.
So this was the plan all along.
No wonder Gilbert had inexplicably shown off his Ice Luna Machete earlier when he was outside. His
intention was indeed to let others know that he possessed a valuable treasure, a treasure capable of
cutting through iron as if it were mud.
This way, Emrys‘ approach of “kill a person and seize his goods” would seem much more reasonable.
It must be said that this was quite a spectacle. Emrys admired it from the bottom of his heart. Such
acting skills could even rival those of his beloved superstar, Sierra.
Emrys toyed with the Ice Luna Machete in his hand, a cold smirk on his face. “Since you’re so eager to
play,” he said, “I’ll happily oblige.”
He left the depths of the wolf hunting ground at a leisurely pace.
As he stepped outside, two voices engaged in an argument could be heard from a distance.
All he heard was Blanche saying, “Impossible. Mr. Lund is definitely not that kind of person. You must
be slandering him!”
Clearly, Gilbert had already recited his prepared lines, falsely accusing Emrys of launching a surprise
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtattack during the wolf hunt, intending to seize the Ice Luna Machete from him.
“Slander? Take a good look at the wounds on my body. They were inflicted by that brat, Emrys. How
am I slandering him?” Gilbert insisted, convinced that Emrys was out to commit murder.
With a loud voice, Blanche questioned, “Both of you entered together just now. If something happened
to you, Mr. Lund would definitely be implicated. Such a simple logic, how could Mr. Lund possibly not
understand?”
If Emrys truly intended to commit murder, he certainly wouldn’t have chosen this time.

Because, if anything were to happen to Gilbert, Emrys would undoubtedly be the prime suspect.
So what if he had obtained the Ice Luna Machete? He would still be killed by Bernard.
Emrys could have done something so foolish.
Therefore, Gilbert’s words were full of inconsistencies.
However, Gilbert scoffed and responded, “Who knows? Perhaps that young man lost his senses upon
seeing the precious Ite Luna Machete. You’re not him. How can you be so sure he wouldn’t kill for it?”
A flaw?
Does it matter?
Does it matter?
Does it matter?
It doesn’t matter at all!
It was all a performance from the start. The ultimate goal was simply to find a reason, a reason to kill
Emrys. As for any flaws, who would care? Who would dare to care?
If Gilbert stated that Emrys had tried to kill a person and seize his goods, then that was exactly what
Emrys did!
Who would dare to object?
From a distance, Emrys heard their heated argument and slowly made his way toward them.
The moment they saw him, Gilbert bellowed with a menacing glare, “The murderer has shown himself!
Do you see it? He’s still holding my Ice Luna Machete. Was I wrong to accuse him of murder and theft?
If I hadn’t escaped just in time earlier, I would have surely died at the hands of this young man.
Halvard, quickly go and alert the guards at the Wolf Hunting Ground and bring Old Mr. Rapp here. This
young man won’t be so easy to deal with.”
After Gilbert gave his instructions, Halvard quickly departed.
With a determined look on her face, Blanche quickly approached Emrys. “Mr. Lund, I

believe you.”
Emrys nodded, remaining silent.
Gilbert was waiting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEmrys was also waiting.
A moment later, Halvard returned, accompanied by reinforcements. He had brought numerous guards
from the Westwind Wolf Hunting Ground, as well as an elder with a remarkable presence.
The elder was none other than Rowan Rapp, the person in charge of the Westwind Wolf Hunting
Ground.
Someone had been committing murders and smuggling goods within Rowan’s jurisdiction, and he
couldn’t simply stand idly by.
While the wolf hunting ground was a place for practical training, where occasional casualties were
inevitable, mutual slaughter was strictly forbidden. Even if such incidents occurred, they were to be
handled discreetly, leaving no trace.
Emrys‘ case was particularly concerning. If someone committed murder and robbery without
thoroughness, they deserved to be punished accordingly.
Rowan had come to sanction Emrys, having already gathered the main details from Halvard during
their journey.
It was hard to believe that this audaciously bold young man named Emrys had dared to harm Bernard’s
son.
His offense was so grave that even death couldn’t absolve him of his guilt.
