The car soon arrived at a relatively remote and dilapidated building outside the city."You'll eventually get the chance to help yourself to her, Donny. After our second-in-command gets bored of her, he'll let you enjoy her too. Knowing him, he'll kill her after he gets tired of her. There won't be any evidence left behind if she's dead."The driver smiled wickedly at the baldie after parking the car.After hearing this, the baldie grinned. "I'll ask him then. Hopefully, he'll give me that chance."He then placed a finger just above Chelsea's upper lip and exerted a bit of force. Chelsea regained consciousness right after."Let go of me, you goons! I'm Chelsea Maddock! My parents will come after all of you if you don't let me go!" Chelsea yelled in fear as she was carried upstairs by two of the men.However, Donny smiled coldly. "Do you think your parents will ever find out about this? After our second-in-command uses you tonight, he'll drag you to the woods outside the city and
Chelsea looked at Severin pleadingly, with her voice becoming slightly gentler than before. "Save me, Severin! Please!"Severin thought to himself, 'Damn, she changes her tune faster than a chameleon changes its colors.' He still folded his arms and said to Chelsea, "Don't worry. They're all going to be dead now that I'm here.""Didn't you make a run for it earlier? How dare you sneak up on us right now?" Donny clenched his fist when he saw that the intruder was Severin. "You're just going to get yourself killed."Severin smiled and said, "If I hadn't made a run for it, I would never have known the true identity of those who wanted to kidnap Miss Chelsea. Now I do. It's the Mount Blade Gang's second-in-command.""Knowing that information isn't going to do you any good. Do you think you'll be able to go against me?" the gang's second-in-command did not think too highly of Severin.However, Severin did not bother to make small talk. He dashed forward to deliver several quick blows t
After Severin killed them, he picked up their spatial rings and transferred the more valuable items—such as spiritual herbs or spirit stones—into his spatial ring.Once that was done, he went up to the still-shocked Chelsea and smiled at her. "I had to do that to find out who was behind all this. You don't blame me for what happened, do you?"Chelsea was at a loss for words. She eventually had a blank look as she said, "I have no issues with your plan, but the least you should do is tell me in advance! I wasn't mentally prepared at all for what was going to happen! You have no idea how scared I was!"Severin shrugged. "Well, what if you screwed up after I told you in advance? It'd look much more realistic if I didn't tell you anything!"Chelsea was speechless for a moment. Though she understood the logic behind it, she still found it a little hard to accept.In the end, all she could do was say to Severin. "Anyway, thanks for helping out. At least we were able to locate the perpet
Richard tried to hint at Chelsea. She could not help but smile wryly when she heard that. "He's amazing, but I'm not good enough for him at all. Do you know his true identity? Are you aware of who he truly is?"Richard frowned and immediately asked, "What about his identity? Do you know something that I don't?"Chelsea nodded and said, "Dad, he's South County's governor. I just only found out when I went to dinner with him earlier. You won't believe what happened tonight..."Chelsea took quite a while to explain everything that happened that night to Richard.Richard was shell-shocked to hear that. "Whoa! You met a war god? And the war god even treated him with respect? I never expected that at all!" He then shook his head in disbelief before continuing, "I didn't expect him to kill the Mount Blade Gang's second-in-command too! And it's even more surprising that his attainment is that of a level nine warrior king! If those words hadn't come out of your mouth, I would've either thou
Severin had a good night's sleep, thinking that it would take about two or three days for him to locate Canis Hall after the mayor, the Maddocks, and the Millers sent their men to find out more information.The next morning, he planned to do a bit of alchemy after breakfast but was caught by surprise when Chelsea came looking for him."Handso— I mean, Mister Severin!" Chelsea came up to him. She was more cautious when speaking to him after knowing his true identity.Severin smiled and said, "Just call me Severin. I'd feel awkward if you address me in such a formal manner."Chelsea nodded, and then said, "The mayor and his son are both here, and my father just welcomed them in. I was told to inform you about their arrival.""Is that so?" Severin's eyes lit up as soon as he heard that. "I didn't think they'd have good news for me so soon." Severin immediately followed Chelsea down.At this time, Richard was quite surprised that the mayor's family would be so polite to him. He was f
Everyone on the mayor's side was startled. "The Mount Blade Gang is a strong force," Hamish reminded.Richard immediately said, "Do you need our help?""We can help too!" Hamish echoed to show his loyalty.Severin refused with a smile. "Don't bother. I can go alone. There's no need to kill too many people. The gang will crumble if their gang leader and a few of their strongest elders are dead.""But they will have a lot of property and assets left behind if their gang crumbles! They are involved in plenty of different industries!" Richard seemed to have thought of something, and he wanted to see if he could reap some benefits.Severin looked at Richard, and then at Hamish.Credit was due to Hamish for finding out about Canis Hall, so he thought for a moment before saying, "Well, you might not be able to handle everything if you take over all the assets, and you might even be in danger by the time I leave. You and the Wymount City Mansion can split whatever assets left behind equa
"What?! But why?!" The great elder looked at Vinn with a confused expression.After all, they suffered numerous casualties, and it was unlike Vinn to just back down.Vinn then said, "You, of all people, should know how strong our deceased comrades are. And yet here they are, dead as a dodo. I don't think there are a lot of people in Wymount City who would be strong enough to kill him. If there are, then they would either be from a first-tier family or Wymount City Mansion. Even if we know who did it, what can we hope to do about it? We can't afford to mess with them, can we?"All of a sudden, the elders who had been so eager to kill the culprit became silent in an instant. They shut their mouths right away, knowing that they were unable to provoke the opponents. At that moment, however, they heard a quick succession of blows. Several of the guards flew back and crashed lifelessly to the ground.Severin walked in leisurely and said calmly, "I am the culprit that you're looking for.
"Great Elder!" Some of the stronger members of the gang shouted in fright after seeing what had happened. They all had a sour look on their faces."His attainment must be high. We need to attack him all at once!" Vinn immediately stood up and said to everyone."Yes, we'll attack him simultaneously!" The second elder said without hesitation. He did not even stop to think of how shameful it would be for them to go up against Severin despite outnumbering him so greatly."Hehe, that's the way to go!" Severin smiled subtly and produced the first-grade spiritual sword that he had just obtained not long ago."Did you think you could win against the six of us with just one weapon?" the second elder laughed.The great elder reminded the others. "Be on your toes, everyone. That sword isn't just an ordinary mystical weapon. It's a spiritual weapon.""He has such treasures?" Vinn's eyes lit up slightly when he heard that."Now!" They immediately launched an attack on Severin."Hehe, Rose-P
