Chapter 706: A Ghost from the Past (3)

At this moment, Rudolph doesn\'t care about Percy\'s condition; he only has one thought: survival!

The next moment, Rudolph instantly leaped towards the big glass window behind him, hoping to flee from this unknown monster and save his own skin.

"Where do you think you\'re going? We\'re far from done!" Jacob instantly reacted. With a single step, he vanished from his spot and appeared right in front of Rudolph like a ghost. His speed was extremely superior to Rudolph\'s.

\'Slap!\'

Jacob then sent Rudolph flying with a single slap, and Rudolph crushed into the wall, shaking the entire room. He hurled up blood and broken teeth while half of his face was caved in by Jacob\'s casual slap.

Then Jacob ignored the blood-coughing Rudolph, looked at Autarch, who had now completely taken over Percy\'s body, and asked, "What\'s the story behind this guy, then?"

He wanted to know this since he had already heard Rudolph and Percy\'s conversation, and after seeing Rudolph\'s face, he knew that Rudolph was his twin brother.

But before wasting time on interrogating Rudolph or considering Autarch taking over Rudolph\'s body to read his memories, he wanted to know if it was worth it or not.

Autarch emotionlessly revealed, "After Percy declared his condition for only choosing a single successor to teach his eye technique, the temple had no choice but to comply with his demands and sent two holy children with the greatest talent and highest bloodline density among the current generation of the Faery Human.

"They were twin boys born by the Pope\'s youngest wife. He\'s one of them. His name is Rudolph Edgar, and he\'s the eldest among the twins. His younger twin brother was named Adolph Edgar.

"They were sent here when they were ten years old to learn from Percy. At first, Percy really didn\'t have any intention of teaching them since he knew that once his technique was passed down, the temple might start to find a way to get rid of him, and they would also get their hands on that technique through these boys.

"However, when he started to teach them, he found that the boys were real geniuses, especially the younger twin, Adolph. He was kind towards others and helped anyone in need; he kind of reminded Percy of himself.

"In the end, Percy changed his mindset, took the job of being a mentor seriously, and taught them. But he noticed that Rudolph wasn\'t like Adolph. Instead, he was ambitious and arrogant and thought everyone else was beneath him, a trait common among the Faery Humans and something Percy loath.

"Nonetheless, he still taught them both and hoped to reform Rudolph\'s character. Things were going quite smoothly, and Rudolph\'s character also started to change. But since Percy could only teach his secret technique to one of them, his first choice was Adolph.

"However, after a decade of Percy starting to teach the boys, something happened before he could start imparting that secret technique since Adolph needed to be at least a Unique Rank to learn it.

"That day, someone broke into the church without alerting anyone or triggering any alarms. When Percy or someone else realized it, it was already too late. When they launched an investigation, they found that nothing important was taken, except for Adolph!

"That mysterious person kidnapped Adolph that day, and when Percy found out about it, he was furious, and he launched a huge investigation with the temple\'s full support.

"In the end, the investigation lasted for quite some time, but no matter where they searched, they couldn\'t find the kidnapper or any traces of Adolph. Furthermore, because both brothers were registered with the Spellbind Mirror, they confirmed that Adolph was alive because his memories didn\'t return to his mirror.

"However, all of a sudden, the temple suddenly stopped the investigation and declared Adolph dead without providing any explanation to furious Percy. The only thing he got was that the kidnapper was found dead, and Adolph\'s memories had been retrieved. Which means he was dead!

"In the end, Percy had no choice but to believe the Temple since he knew they wouldn\'t lie about something like this or take this humiliation sitting, especially since it involved a Holy Child, who was the Pope\'s youngest son, at that, with an extremely powerful bloodline.

"But Percy had taken this to heart and blamed himself for Adolph\'s death, who he even considered his own child and had deep sentiments for. He even wanted to die for his sin, but he was spared and told to complete his duty for both his and Adolph\'s sake.

"He also found some solace in Rudolph since he looked like Adolph, yet it also haunted him at the same time. That\'s why he protected him with everything he had. Rudolph naturally didn\'t disappoint him; he learned everything and even changed his ways, which satisfied Percy.

"But the regret and guilt of losing Adolph never left his heart to this day, and he always prayed in secret for his soul and sought forgiveness for his sin..." Autarch explained everything related to the twins and Percy\'s relationship with Jacob.

Jacob didn\'t react much because despite knowing that he was Adolph\'s, the kidnapped twin, he didn\'t have any memoirs of Adolph, nor did he have any feelings towards his background or Percy.

However, he was still curious about who was behind Adolph\'s mysterious demise, and he even had a guess as he glanced toward Rudolph, who was also listening with a pale expression after he stopped coughing blood and stabilized his condition with a self-healing spell.

Although Rudolph didn\'t know what kind of magic Jacob had performed on Percy to cause him to spill everything out like this, after getting slapped by Jacob and almost dying, he knew Jacob was a terrifying being, and his fate was now in his hands.

At this moment, Autarch ended his explanation with a final revelation, "Percy, despite not wanting to believe it, always had a guess about who was behind Adolph\'s disappearance."

Jacob was intrigued as he thought Percy wasn\'t a complete fool after all and asked, "Oh, who was it?"

Autarch said something completely different from Jacob\'s trail of thoughts, and even Rudolph became deadly appalled and started to tremble after hearing it.

"Percy always believed that it was none other than Adolph\'s own father, Pope Sebastian Edgar, who killed Adolph!"
