Chapter 2173 The Head Of Garrison Industry
They began to hesitate upon hearing that.
Do we tell him or not?
Edmund had an idea when he noticed the look of hesitation on their faces. “Let me
guess… It’s Levi, isn’t it?”
It wasn’t actually that hard of a guess as the higher-ups of Garrison Industry were all
closely acquainted with Levi, so it would make perfect sense for him to be their leader.
Edmund chuckled when he saw the change in their expression upon hearing Levi’s name.
Okay, this confirms it, then!
“So it really is Levi, huh? That man sure is exceptional for starting a company like Garrison
Industry, I’ll give him that! Unfortunately, Levi has gone missing for a year now. I’m sure
you guys know what that means more than anyone else, don’t you?”
What started as a compliment took a sudden twist, and Edmund’s words left them all pale
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtas the words stabbed at their hearts.
They were less likely to feel worried if they knew for sure that Levi was dead.
After all, he had always turned out to be alive during his previous “deaths” and had been
protecting Erudia in secret.
However, it was the first time Levi had been missing for a whole year, and that left a lot of
room for imagination as to what happened to him.
It wasn’t like him to just go missing like this, and that fact alone made it a lot scarier as
something bad must’ve happened to him.
Garrison Industry had secretly sent people searching every corner of the world for Levi
throughout the year, but they found no sign of him whatsoever.
As much as they hated to admit it, they all had a feeling that Levi could truly be gone this
time.
“Levi being missing makes him as good as gone, so Garrison Industry is pretty much
without a leader right now! There’s no point in keeping the company if he’s gone, so I’ll
just go ahead and remove his position as head of the company!” Edmund continued.
Naturally, they didn’t take too kindly to what he said.
“You can’t do that! Who are you to remove Mr. Garrison’s position like that? He built all of
this all by himself!”
“Yeah! Nobody has the right to remove Mr. Garrison’s position! We will only acknowledge
him as the head of Garrison Industry!”
The higher-ups were firm in their decision, but Edmund simply chuckled as he said, “And
what if I were to do so by force anyway? I could just fire all of you and take over Garrison
Industry myself!
Edmund wasn’t about to give up on Garrison Industry just because they refused to sign it
over.
He had only come to negotiate out of courtesy and would resort to using force if
necessary.

“Even so, we still won’t agree to it! Feel free to fight us if you want to!”
“That’s right! Bring it on! We’re not afraid of you!”
“They say The Cardinal Hall is nothing compared to Mr. Garrison… Looks like that really is
the case here!”
Edmund was losing his cool at that point and said with a cold sneer, “Very well, then. You
asked for it!”
The atmosphere was tense as everyone prepared to engage in battle, and Robed Slayer
quickly stepped forward to stop them by saying, “Calm down, guys! I’m sure Mr. Garrison
wouldn’t want to see us fighting regardless of his condition! None of us will stand to gain
anything out of this fight! Besides, The Cardinal Hall belongs to Erudia, so we’d still be
serving the country even with them leading the company! It’s not like Garrison Industry
has fallen into the enemy’s hands!”
Everyone calmed down after hearing what Robed Slayer said, and they agreed to
Edmund’s request under the condition that The Cardinal Hall would allow them to operate
however they saw fit.
Edmund agreed to their condition and finally got his hands on Garrison Industry as he
wanted.
