In the end, the Four Basilisks were complimented and lauded. They were even proposed to be made kings by the
Dragonites, a decision which had to wait until they were able to get back in touch with Levi.
“What? The Avengers have not been taken out yet? The sheer outrage!”
“How could we rest on our laurels while Erudia remains under threat? We must persist!”
The Four Basilisks showily swore to eliminate the Avengers when they heard that the latter remained active.
They may have dreaded the Northern Demon but with their own considerable abilities, they should have no
problems taking on the Avengers.
“If Levi had half of your virtues, the majority of the Avengers would not have gotten away!”
The crowd had high hopes for the Four Basilisks and were deeply angered by Levi, who they believed allowed the
Avengers to escape when he defied orders out of spite, and disapproved of the pettiness he showed when the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfoursome were sent out against the Northern Demon instead of him.
“Hurry up and get in contact with Levi so that the matter of the Crown King can be resolved once and for all!”
Somewhere within the bowels of the Ether, Levi took in a deep drawl, and next to him, lay the Northern Demon.
Neither won out in that battle, but neither did both perish in the fight.
Levi absolutely had the ability to finish off the Northern Demon, but decidedly held back when the latter recognized
his killing move.
He opted to create the illusion that they had both perished so that he may question the Northern Demon to find out
how he came to know about it, and perhaps be able to seek answers to some burning questions which he had
about his own master.
However, the Northern Demon was out cold, and Levi was unable to rouse him no matter what he tried.
“Forget it. I should bring him back, and see if Fredrick or Mr. Quinton has any way to wake him!” Levi said while he
shook his own head in vexation.
As he already had a handle on the situation and the Northern Demon no longer posed a threat to him, alive or
dead, all he wanted from the latter was some answers.
Unbeknownst to him, the tables had been flipped on him; the four deserters had become the exalted saviors of
Erudia, while he himself was deemed the deserter instead.
By the esteem of the Dragonites, he was negligent and guilty of a major dereliction of duty.
The matter of the Avengers was a mistake by Levi’s own admission, as he chose to confront the Northern Demon
over the Avengers upon determining the former to be the greater threat.
Levi finally learned what happened on the way back. The Four Basilisk had claimed credit for the victory and set
him up as deserters alongside the other thirty-eight of his comrades, and also murdered all the prisoners of war as
well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It looks like the four of them meant to silence anyone who knew the truth, but unfortunately for them, I’m still
alive!” Levi said as a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Never before have I met anyone more heinous than the entire family of Zoey, until now!
One would be able to see the true nature of one’s character before the lure of self-interest and the threat of death.
How dare those four accept the plaudits and the honorific of being crowned kings by scapegoating so many of their
own comrades?
That is simply despicable!
Did y’all kill the Northern Demon?
Were you even able to defeat him?
It was impossible for the livid Levi to stomach the fact that the four deserters had been turned into national heroes,
and he became determined to seek justice on behalf of the near thousand fallen members of the Suicide Squad.
“Four Basilisks, huh. Good. Just you wait!”
Levi then made his return to Oakland City in a huff.
