Upon hearing this, Fade and Sasha had vaguely guessed what would occur next, but they allowed Tiago to continue.
Tiago then said, "After Sakda discovered what had happened, he was furious, asking me to return the dagger and apologize to Fenrir. Of course, I didn't want to."
"Then, Sakda threatened to report me to the local tycoons saying that I broke the rules and that I had crossed the line. He would make me look like a person who attacked his own people and also disturbed the construction of the factory." Tiago clenched his teeth.
"I was a nobody at that time. If he really told them, the local tycoons and the officers who supported the establishment of the factory would definitely not have forgiven me."
"So I killed Sakda and fabricated a lie, telling Chongrak that his grandfather Sakda was killed by Fenrir as Fenrir wanted to get himself the antique dagger." Both Fade and Sasha could see the resentment sparkling in Tiago's eyes.
"Chongrak believed me without any doubt, and hated Fenrir very much."
"I was worried that Fenrir would expose this incident, and at the same time, I wanted to get the dagger back. Therefore, I had accepted Chongrak as my disciple, taught him martial arts, and trained him over these years." At this moment, Tiago raised his head and looked at Fade.
"Finally, I found a chance to send Chongrak to assassinate Fenrir as revenge for his grandfather and obtain the dagger at the same time."
"This is the whole story. The end." Tiago lowered his head as he finished.
Fade clapped his hands and said, "Let him out!"
Under Tiago and Sasha's shocked gazes, Borzoi, who was supposed to be locked up at the Stealth Team base, appeared in front of them.
Shock and anger were evident on his face. Borzoi glared at Tiago fiercely as he gritted his teeth. "Why did you have to do that? Why did you have to lie to me?"
When Tiago saw Borzoi, whose real name was Chongrak, he was stunned. He quickly tried to defend himself. "Borzoi, about this, I—"
"My name is Chongrak, and my grandfather's name is Sakda. I am not Borzoi!" Chongrak yelled. The name Borzoi was given to him after he had learned martial arts from Tiago. He had participated in various fights as ordered by
Tiago.
Now, when he learned that the master whom he regarded as his benefactor, was actually the murderer of his grandfather, the resentment and anger he felt made Chongrak not want to have anything to do with the title Borzoi.
Chongrak stared at Tiago and questioned, "Don't try to defend yourself. Answer me, did you kill my grandfather?"
"T- this, I..." Tiago wanted to defend himself. However, he dared not to lie as he stole a glance at Fade. He nodded and admitted, "Yes, I killed him."
Upon hearing that, Chongrak's face was immediately plastered with red fury. He immediately attacked Tiago. "Since it was you who killed him, then you should pay for it now!"
Tiago tried to dodge, but he could not move at all as he was being held down by Fade. He could only take the hit from Chongrak, which landed straight on his head. His neck broke. And, with a loud crack, Tiago fell onto the floor lifelessly.
With that, the tycoon of Torteland had died in the hands of his own disciple.
After killing Tiago, Chongrak knelt down in front of Fade and Sasha and slapped himself twice. "I was wrong. I didn't figure out the truth and blamed it on you, and even tried to assassinate Miss Sasha."
"I deserve to die. I have avenged my grandfather. So for now, no matter how you two want to punish me, I'm going to willingly take it."
Sasha looked at Fade. It was obvious that she could not make a decision for such a situation.
"Mr. Chen, this is..." Chongrak looked at the words on the paper in surprise.
Fade explained, "These are some techniques of martial arts that I have improvised for you. If you continue to practice martial arts in the future, use these."
"Ah, techniques of martial arts. I..." Chongrak was even more astounded.
For a martial artist, or even a clan, the techniques they practiced were incredibly important. After all, mastering a good technique was equivalent to having the capital to survive in the martial arts world.
People with a certain degree of talent could also use this technique to create a new clan before becoming an overlord in that area.
And now, Fade had just given Chongrak the guidance of different techniques to practice, and it seemed that it was an improved version of his previous method. That also meant that this exercise was definitely better than the one Chongrak had practiced before.
It was natural for Chongrak to be shocked when Fade had given away such a valuable thing.
Fade waved his hand and said, "This is nothing to me. Practice this when you've returned before developing your influence there. After a year, I will see you in Torteland and will give you some tasks. Understand?"
"Understood!" Chongrak nodded and answered loudly.
Fade waved his hand again. "Okay, you may leave now."
Chongrak nodded and thanked Fade before leaving.
