“Levi, you’ve really caused a big mess this time!”
With that, Rico and Severus left in a huff.
Levi did not appear to mind. After all, I’m a man of reason.
He turned to Byron, who was in the cage, and said with a smile, “Don’t worry. You’ll be locked in there for the time
being. Don’t even think about leaving!”
“Okay,” Byron replied, nodding vehemently.
I can’t believe that a Supreme class fighter like me is suffering in a place like this. I hope that Randy will be able to
bring reinforcements after he returns. Either I have to make Levi yield to me and release me, or he’ll have to send
someone powerful to drag me away.
Meanwhile, the Dragonites were shocked to find out that the Zarain envoys had left just like that.
“This can’t happen! If Levi continues what he’s doing, it’ll be a catastrophe!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s right! The Zarain envoys were evidently angry, and they even said that Levi had caused trouble!”
Rico and Severus were airing out their grievances when someone suddenly said, “To be honest, I feel that what Levi
did was right!”
“Hmm? Why do you say that?” Everyone turned to look at the person that had spoken.
The person explained, “At times like these, we should act even more ruthlessly! If we keep giving in blindly and
worry about causing trouble, it’ll only get worse! This time, it is just stealing from the museum. But next time, things
could escalate. The women in Erudia could become the next target, or there might be killings and destruction! So,
the more they assume that Erudia won’t dare to cause trouble, the more ruthless we should be!”
Hearing that, everyone fell silent.
“Yes, you’re right. The more we put up with it, the weaker we seem, and we’ll end up giving others the chance to
take advantage of us. Erudia doesn’t stir up trouble deliberately, but we won’t shy away from confrontation! If
someone provokes us, we’ll fight back! Go and announce to everyone that Byron Johnston has broken Erudia’s laws
will be punished!”
When Levi heard the announcement, he gave a satisfied smile.
That’s more like the Dragonites I know, and that’s more like the Erudia I know. Hmph! That man had the guts to
cause trouble, so there’s no need to be afraid of him or show him mercy!
In the end, Byron was sentenced to ten years in prison and stripped of his powers.
The harsh sentence was to serve as a warning to all those who harbored ill intentions toward Erudia.
The people of Zarain were infuriated when they heard the news.
They had not expected that the Dragonites would side with Levi and become so strong.
There was nothing Zarain could do to put pressure on them anymore.
Over at the manor, Bruce was furious when he heard the news.
“Preposterous! How dare they do that to my brother? You’re forcing my hand!” he growled.
“Master, it was our fault,” said the two butlers as they knelt on the floor, shaking like a leaf.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBruce’s gaze gradually darkened.
“Why didn’t you watch over my brother properly?” he demanded, letting out a cry of frustration.
Then, he placed one hand on each butler’s head.
“Ahhh!” they cried out in agony.
A dark energy swirled around Bruce’s hands and began sucking the life force out of the two butlers, who screamed
in agony.
The two men’s bodies shriveled and aged rapidly before finally falling to the floor with a thud.
All that was left were two skeletons lying among a pile of clothes.
The others present shuddered in fear as they knelt on the floor.
It was simply too terrifying!
“Don’t worry, brother. The allied army will invade Erudia very soon, and I’ll rescue you from that hellhole! Erudia will
be ours, and you’ll be able to do whatever you desire!” Bruce muttered angrily.
As he gazed into the distance, he added, “And that Levi Garrison! I’ll be sure to remember his name and make him
pay the price for his actions!”
