While Rico was coaxing him out, Severus barked, “Floyd, come over here with your men and escort Mr. Johnston
out!”
“If Levi attacks, you will have to stop him!”
However, Floyd and the others just stood still, as if they didn’t hear a word.
“Floyd, what are you doing? Didn’t you hear me?” Severus yelled.
However, there was still no response.
“Floyd…”
Severus felt the urge to curse but decided against it given how powerful Floyd was. Hence, he chose to bear with it
instead.
“This is my master’s territory. Therefore, I will obey his will. If you want to take him away, you should do it yourself,”
Floyd replied coldly.
“You guys…”
Severus and Rico almost burst a vessel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLevi smiled. “I have given you the key and offered you the prisoner. However, it’s not my fault if you can’t get him
to leave.”
Rico and Severus were stumped.
What’s going on?
“Mr. Johnston, please trust us. We will ensure that you are safely sent back to Zarain.”
“With us around, Levi won’t dare harm you.”
Both of them were desperate to get Byron out.
However, when Byron lifted his gaze, he saw Levi’s eerily harmless smile, as if he was the devil himself.
Trembling in a corner, it was obvious from his expression that he refused to leave.
He didn’t for a second doubt that Levi would dismantle his robotic body the moment he stepped out.
“I’m not leaving! I’m fine here. Stop asking me to go!”
Byron even pushed Rico and Severus out before locking himself in the cage.
After that, he threw the key somewhere far away.
“What…”
“I…”
Both Rico and Severus were dumbfounded.
They couldn’t believe what had happened and how traumatized Byron was by Levi.
Consequently, both of them left after failing to free Byron.
They reported the matter to the Dragonites upon their return.
“Actually, Levi does have a point. He is making a stand on behalf of Erudia.”
“Exactly. How can we allow a criminal to go free without any consequences?”
“This cannot be tolerated!”
Most of the Dragonites agreed with Levi’s actions.
Severus and Rico responded at once. “We don’t deny that all of you are right. However, given how sensitive this is,
we should play it down as far as possible.”
“It does make sense. Given that there are more Supreme class fighters emerging. It would be wise not to spark a
conflict under such incendiary circumstances.”
Everyone agreed the rationale was sound.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that moment, a messenger arrived with a report. “Sir! Zarain’s envoy, Mr. Randy Wiggins, is here and demands
that we give him Byron. They are acting aggressively and intend to take him by force!”
“Rico, why don’t the both of you go again. Perhaps, Levi will change his mind when he sees the envoy from Zarain.
After all, he is smart and knows how to read the situation.”
“Exactly. Now isn’t the time for Erudia to get into a conflict. We are still not powerful enough and need more time to
gather our strength.”
A few hours later, Levi saw the group arrive at his place.
He was stunned by how quick the response was.
However, when he saw the foreigners with them, he immediately understood why.
“Are you here for the prisoner?” Levi asked.
“That’s right. We are,” Randy replied.
“Where are the keys? I’ll release him myself.”
When Levi pointed to where the keys were, Randy was surprised at how cooperative he was.
He isn’t as difficult as how they made him out to be.
Picking up the key, he opened the cage.
“Let’s go, Byron.”
