The person who had arrived was Graceâs former boss. He was the founder of Hidden Dragon, Draco
Crain. When Alex noticed his Grace referring to the old man, he immediately knew who he was.
He had overheard her phone call after all.
âStop this!â
At the same time, Draco walked to the ruins under the protection of two uniformed teams. He yelled,
âYou two! Youâre Department Six and Divine Constabulary leaders! Youâre making a fool out of
yourselves by fighting each other!â
At that, both Grant and Geronimo felt ridiculously uncomfortable.
They then bowed to the old man, greeting him. âElder Crain! â
Draco was much older than the two. He wasnât even of the same generation. Hence, he was
considered among the rarest and oldest heroes within America. Putting his status and power aside,
Draco was experienced enough for the two to refer to him as âElder Crainâ.
After realizing who Draco was, Quentin was stunned. He didnât expect that his family matters would get
such a powerful man involved.
He was so excited that he immediately rushed over, just so he could welcome him as well.
However, Draco walked towards Alex instead, scanning him from top to bottom.
After that, he even patted Alex on his shoulder. âYou two do look alike! Carbon copies of each other!â
It was apparent as to who he was referring to. Anyone who knew Alex knew that Draco meant that Alex
looked like William, his father.
Draco then let out a deep sigh.
âAlthough Iâve aged a lot in the past few years, my memory has become better. I have been thinking
about him lately. I even remember that I owe him a thank you. I really didnât expect him to die so young.
It was a pity that I couldnât thank him in person.â
When Draco mentioned this, Grace put her hand to her mouth. She started sobbing profusely.
Back then, when William left, the Hidden Dragons disbanded. William had argued with Draco that very
day, and it didnât end well.
The two ended up as strangers after that harsh argument, completely disregarding their father and son
like relationship. This situation had even caused most of the members of the Hidden Dragons to feel
awkward around William.
However, with Dracoâs thanks, he was admitted defeat and acknowledged Williamâs status. It was a pity
that he had already passed away.
Grace said, âElder Crain, my daughter was nearly raped, the incident recorded without her consent, just
so they could threaten her to oblige further! Her life couldâve been ruined! Alex was the one who helped
her out of justice, yet he was still put on trial and arrested by Department Six! We were the ones with
sufficient evidence to prove his innocence, but someone tried to turn things against us! I canât help but
think that America is no longer as lawful as it used to be!â
The old man straightened his posture, his aura intense.
âOf course it still is!â
âAmerica will always be lawful and just!â
âThe descendants of the Hidden Dragons are not ones to be provoked as well.â
Grant took a few glances towards Alex. He really didnât expect Alex to be remotely related to this old
man. More so, he was shocked at the fact that William used to be a Hidden Dragon member.
He had some questions in mind regarding William, but he knew that it was impossible to bring Alex with
him when Draco showed up.
However, he had achieved his goal today, now sure that Alex had inherited the Holy Book. Everything
was much easier now with this knowledge in mind.
He walked over to Draco. âElder Crian, Department Six symbolizes justice, so we have nothing against
Alex Rockefeller. I just wanted to bring him back and ask him a few questions about this matter. If he
really is innocent, I will do everything I can to prove that. No one would be able to accuse him later on.â
Draco then raised his crutch and pointed toward the members of the law department of Michigan and
the interrogator from Alaska. âArenât you three putting him on trial? Just proceed with it, then. Youâre
Lord Commander, for godâs sake. Canâ t you solve such a small matter?â
Comparing their strengths, Grant was able to kill Draco with just one hand. However, this wasnât a
situation where they could battle to have a say in things.
