Love at the Wrong Table

âLeviâs wisdom shines bright!â Envoy Azure complimented.
As another night of competition ended, various factions and individuals
began to unwind. Some relaxed, while those still in the midst of competition
grasped the chance to rest.
However, there was someone who stood out from the rest.
With a firm grip on his sword, he slipped into a room at an ordinary inn
without making any sound.
Despite the silence, the old man sitting in the room was aware of his
presence and spoke with his eyes shut. âYosef, youâve finally come to visit
me?â
Yosef emerged from the darkness.
Despite his pristine appearance, his eyes had lost their sparkle. He was no
longer resembling the vibrant youth he once was.

The old man asked him with closed eyes. âYouâve approached me, implying
that you have something on your mind. Why not share your thoughts?â
Then Yosef locked his gaze on him, gritting his teeth as he inquired. âOld
godfather, why? Iâve faithfully served you for two decades, but youâve never
imparted martial arts to me. Instead, you decided to pass on the Art of
Adaptability to Emmanuel. Why?â
The old godfather didnât reply immediately. Instead, he slowly opened his
eyes.
His aged gaze was as deep as an endless tunnel.
âHavenât you understood yet?â he asked.
I donât understand!â Yosef clenched his teeth. His frustration seeped through
his words. âIs it because his grandfather and father were heroes, while mine
was a murderer? Have you already judged me because of that?â
The old godfather didnât respond directly, instead posing a question in return.

âAm I wrong?â

âYouâre wrong! Utterly wrong!â Yosefâs voice rose with indignation. âYour lack of
trust has shrouded me in darkness, leading to my current state!â
The old godfatherâs expression remained unchanged as he questioned, âIs
that truly what you think?â
âYes!â Yosef affirmed vehemently. âAs the old godfather of Heroâs Village, your
judgment was significant. If you trust me and pass on the mantle to me, the
villagers will also trust me. Queenie wouldnât scorn my origins, and Iâd tread
the path of righteousness rather than the one Iâm on now!â
The old godfather looked at him with a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
âWhat youâre saying does make some sense, but itâs not entirely correct.â
Yosef clenched his fists. His knuckles were prominent.
âYosef!â The old godfather let out a long sigh and expressed his heartfelt
concern in his words. âYouâre truly my most cherished disciple, and I earnestly
Chapter 1620 Unfair
wish for you to find the right path! However, you should understand that itâs
not my approval that will lead you there. Itâs your journey towards
righteousness that will earn the respect of others!â
With a clang, Yosef finally drew his sword. With anger in his voice, he angrily
pointed his sword at the old godfather. âThatâs nonsense! Youâre just showing
favoritism towards Emmanuel!â
The old godfatherâs demeanor remained unperturbed. âPerhaps he has
reasons deserving of my favoritism.â
âWhat is the reason?â Yosef roared, and his eyes blazed with anger.
Santiago continued to gulp down alcohol outside the room without disturbing
the conversation between the master and the disciple.
Meanwhile, a swarm of butterflies, attracted by the scent of liquor, futtered
outside the room, spreading fragrant aromas.
âYosef, if I passed on the Art of Adaptability to you, it would be futile as you

still cannot comprehend it.â
The old godfatherâs response was straightforward. âItâs not that your martial
arts is inferior to Emmanuel. Itâs your spiritual maturity that falls short.â
âWhat do you mean?â Yosefâs sword tip had already touched the old
godfatherâs throat.
Unperturbed, the old godfather continued to explain. âEmmanuel
comprehends the purpose behind martial arts, while you do not.â
âHis strength stems from his understanding of sacrifice and the willingness to
defend home and country. On the battlefield, he bravely fights enemies as
he knows that his country and people rely on him. He must be strong enough
to stand firm!â
âYour pursuit of martial arts is driven by personal gainâcontrol over the
village, perhaps even the approval of a woman. The disparity in your spiritual
realms is vast.â

Yosefâs gaze darkened, suffused with
crimson rage.
âYouâre talking nonsense! Youâre looking down on me! You all have prejudices
against me! Iâll kill Emmanuel to prove youâre all wrong! Wrongdoers donât
deserve to live!â
In the end, Yosef swung his sword.
In his mind, the old godfather had already been dismembered.
