According to them, years ago, the Bellemonte family had an agreement with one of the leaders of the three main regions, Ashkar.
Under this agreement, the governor would allow Bellemonte men to train within his region and even help strengthen Bellemonte's military force. After all, the Ashkar region possessed a method of training that could turn even the weakest individual into a formidable fighter.
Bellemonte's military strength was the weakest within the Secret Society. And in the Secret Society, no one willingly helped another family grow stronger—not if it meant risking their own influence and power. No one would help another house surpass them.
Moreover, the Bellemontes were already the wealthiest family in the Secret Society. No sane person would assist them in honing their military prowess.
So, the Bellemonte reached out to someone they believed could help them.
In return, Bellemonte would supply the region with ammunition and arms.
