Chapter 754 An Imposter
Sporting a rough beard and sideburns that seamlessly connected, he looked like someone
for whom a shattered bowl laid out in front might suggest a life spent on the streets,
begging for scraps.
Yet, instead of a broken bowl, what lay before him was an art booth adorned with
paintings, an odd sight indeed.
This disheveled look wasn’t a sign of neglect; rather, it was his signature style, a
declaration of unbridled freedom and creativity, making him the epitome of an artist’s
spirit.
This very appearance made it all the more convincing to onlookers that he was none other
than the renowned Emerentius.
Standing in line behind this untidy figure were men and women, showing their respect in
silence.
One among them, a crew–cut man, stepped forward confidently and addressed the
gathering, “Folks, let’s not be taken aback. Our Mr. Emerentius has always stood out with
his unique charm.” He clarified, aiming to set the record straight regarding the artist’s
unconventional appearance.

and their ability to reach the pinnacle of thought.
“Truly remarkable,” the crowd murmured in agreement.

commence painting now. Let’s prepare the drawing paper.”
“Yes!”
Several individuals cooperated to smoothly roll out a large, pale scroll, carefully ensuring
its surface was flat and ready.
Offering the ink brush to Emerentius, the crew–cut man invited, “Mr. Emerentius, if you
please!”
“No need.”
To everyone’s surprise, the unkempt man declined the brush, instead taking a large swig
of potent liquor before energetically plunging his hand into the ink pot.
He then turned his attention to the expansive blank canvas before him, his presence
commanding silence and awe.
Suddenly, the unkept man let out a powerful shout, “Ha!” which seemed to electrify the

The frenetic energy dissipated as he coolly retreated to the center of his stall, adopting
ant air of indifference, his eyelids heavy, utterly disregarding the crowd of onlookers that

As he concluded, the crowd exchanged unsure looks..
