Chapter 113 - Chapter 113: Blood Connection

*Eden and Alexbold are shown clashing their attacks*

Alexbold: What do you think you're doing, Eden? Get out of the way if you don't want to die

Eden: I won't move an inch, I told you, you're the hero, I'll stop you from doing anything crazy

*Alexbold and Eden back after the clash*

Alexbold: Stop talking stupid things, don't you remember what this bastard? Because of him...

Eden: I know, but do you think this would really be the right thing to do? Do you really think that killing him is going to end everything?

Alexbold: What if that's right? I don't give a shit. You start to sound like a hero, don't you think?

*Alexbold's body expels energy again*

Alexbold: Everyone's hero? I'm fed up, I don't care if I have to kill him, I'll take my revenge

*Eden also begins to expel its dark energy*

Eden: Then you leave me no choice, I will stop you at any cost

*Alexbold and Eden quickly go on the attack. However, Shun buries both of them in the ground*

Shun: It's time to end this

Alexbold: What do you think you do? I...

*Shun stares at Alexbold and he surrenders*

Shun: I could suspend you for disobeying a direct order Alexbold. However, this time I will overlook it

Alexbold: I'm sorry...

Shun: I'm a very pious being, don't you think Eden?

Eden: Uh... yes

Shun: Well, I think it's time to explain what happened here, don't you think Teach?

Teach: yes...

Shun: But first, I have to warn both of you, that the information that will be shared here is top secret. Not even the round table knows

Shun: So, it's likely that your lives are at more risk than they are now.

Eden: Wait a minute, what is the round table? Does that myth of Arturo's table exist?

Shun: *sighs* You're an idiot with no solution

Eden: *Confused* Now what did I say?

Shun: I guess I don't have to ask again, do I?

Eden and Alexbold: Yes

Shun: The one behind the Port Royal disaster, it's not Blackbeard

Alexbold: What did you say?! That's impossible, he was there

Teach: No, I arrived at the scene after the explosion

Alexbold: It can't be...

Teach: When you attacked me, I had no choice but to stop you, you were completely out of control

Alexbold: If it wasn't him. So who was it?

Shun: Your father. Clarileum

*Alexbold is shown in full shock*

Eden: His father?

Shun: Yes. The same one who assigned us and provided us with mission information

Alexbold: How is that possible? He...

Shun: It sounds like he wanted to take out two birds with one shot. To finish off Teach, a man who has been chased for more than 15 years and has a lot of information about them and their exiled son, who holds a great grudge against them. Making Teach look like the culprit of this disaster was the most ideal, Alexbold died in the "incident" and Teach would fall at any moment of the chase, since he knows that I would take care of eliminating him

Shun: However, they were unlucky. Iseli managed to protect you at the last moment, and not only that, he didn't expect me to ally with Teach at this moment

Teach: It was a risky move to bring you here, I didn't know what could happen, but to decide to put my life at risk, with a small hope that you won't finish me off. Tell me, what made you spare my life?

Shun: Your Gaze

Teach: Huh?

Shun: I knew you had already lost everything, that look... He told me everything, I knew that if you wanted me here it was for something very important. So, tell me, what did you mean by what they were?

Teach: I guess you have any idea about the Port Royal incident over 30 years ago, right?

Shun: Yes, more than half of the population died in an unprecedented event, it is said that on that day they were condemning a heretic and witch, isn't it?

Teach: yes... That woman was my mother

*Eden and Alexbold are shown impacted*

Teach: She... she was burned alive in front of me, the religious of Port Royal unjustly condemned her, after that I didn't know more, I just know that when I regained consciousness I was standing there, right in the middle of the square with all those bodies around me

Teach: I didn't know what to do, I stayed up all night hugging my mother, but when I woke up I was imprisoned and sentenced to death. However, a gentleman I met a few days before, voted in my favor

*Shown to the bread seller*

Teach: And no longer that there was no proof that it was me, they released me. After a few years I decided to venture to the sea, since I could not find any motivation, those voices and screams, haunt me to this day, and although I tried to take my life several times, I could not do it. No... I didn't have the strength to do it

Teach: The day I came closest to dying, I met my wife, who saved my life. I thought that at last, all that torment was over, that I could be happy with my wife and daughter again, but it wasn't like that...

Teach: One day when I came home at night, I came across that scene... my lifeless wife on the floor, all the walls covered in blood and a man in a top hat sitting so calmly, with my daughter in his arms...

*Flashback*

Unknown: Welcome, dear

*Teach's face of rage shown*

*Back to the present*

Teach: I tried to take my daughter out of her arms, but I couldn't...

*Teach is shown screaming and with tears in his eyes as the stranger leaves*

Teach: The only thing I could see, was a tattoo... that damn tattoo, that moon with the colon...

*Alexbold removes the armor from his neck*

Alexbold: Something like that?

*Teach is shown angry and shocked*

Teach: *While clenching your fist* If...

Shun: The symbol of the Moonveil family...

Teach: Those damn ones...

*Teach recalls one of the symbols on the religious leader's robe, which matches that of the Moonveil*

Shun: Can I ask you a question?

Teach: yes...

Shun: What did he say to you before taking your daughter?

Teach: I don't remember it well, but I talk about something about his blood being special

Shun: Then there's no doubt...

*Shun pulls a picture out of his pocket*

Shun: It's her, isn't it?

*Teach is shocked by what he saw*

Teach: Hana... How? How do you have this photo? But... Hana here looks older... this is not Hana...

Shun: yes... I'm sorry to tell you no... She is 076

Teach: 076? What are you talking about?

Shun: Several years ago, the 12 families started a big scientific project, in which they tried to create the best children genetically, for this, they used hundreds of children as guinea pigs, most of whom died in the process

Shun: Although the experiment was a failure and the group that was in charge of it was dismantled, 10 of the clones created survived. We don't know where they are, but we do know who they are...

Teach: Hana...

Shun: I can't promise you anything, but I'll try to find her at all costs

Teach: Thank you...

Shun: You'd better get out of here

Teach: What are you talking about?

Shun: They're coming

Teach: Them?

*Instantly everyone on the island feels an overwhelming presence*

Shun: *Smile* You wretch, you don't trust even your own shadow

*Clarileo is shown arriving on a boat*

*Shun opens a portal*

Shun: Be careful, we'll see you soon, Teach Ravenshadow

Teach: How...

*Teach goes through the portal and it closes*

Alexbold: Ravenshadow?!

Shun: Huh? Didn't I say it before?
