"Thank you, Mister Severin!" Although Derrick was still not that confident of Severin's success, he still had high hopes for Severin.Hundreds of people soon gathered at the town entrance's archway. The braver ones came nearer, while the faint of heart stayed kept a safe distance while ensuring that they were still able to watch everything from afar."Which one of you is Mister Severin?" An old man came over and asked excitedly.Derrick immediately introduced. "Mister Oliver! This young man right here is Mister Severin. He said he is a practitioner—the kind we heard only in legends. That monster is what they call a spirit beast, and said he could help us kill it."Oliver's eyes were red as he stepped forward and held Severin's hand. "Mister Severin, that beast has killed many of our townspeople. We can give you anything if you help us kill it. Just say the word, and we'll do our best to repay you as long as it's within our town's power.""Yes, Mister Severin! You may ask us for an
Lillie smiled wryly and explained to Diane, "Have confidence in your husband, ma'am. He's the Four Great War Gods' master too, so his attainment must be at least that of a warrior emperor. You don't need to worry too much!"Lillie then paused for a moment before adding, "Besides, we still don't know for sure if that thing is a spirit beast or a monster. It's all just a guess."The fog came closer and closer. Many of the townsfolk got so frightened that they retreated a far distance. Only the girls and Diane stood a little closer because they were worried about Severin.Severin stood nearly a few meters away from the stone pillar to which Charles was tied and was looking straight ahead. As the cloud of white mist came closer and closer, the terrifying oppressive pressure became stronger too."This pressure is too strong! If it isn't a spirit beast, then it might break through to become a spirit beast soon! In other words, it's as strong as a level nine warrior king or a level one wa
"Die!" Severin yelled as he slashed down on the python.A sharp light of spiritual energy that merged with extremely dense sword energy hacked straight down. The giant python's bucket-sized head was sliced off and fell to the ground. The surrounding fog then dissipated after it had been beheaded."What? It was decapitated so soon?"Everyone in the town was shocked when they saw the large snake's body crash to the ground. The speed at which it was killed was simply too quick."Mister Severin is so strong! He needed less than ten seconds to kill such a huge black python. I didn't think the monster would be a huge reptile!" Abigail had a look of admiration as she gazed up at Severin floating in midair.With a flicker, Severin flew back down again."You're our savior! Thank you for helping us get rid of this scourge! Please let us worship you!" Oliver came over with his people, and all the townsfolk who were there bowed down to Severin.Severin immediately said, "There's no need to
The fat man who owned the inn immediately shouted, "Save some for me, fellas! This is excellent nourishment, and I'm going to prepare some of it for Mister Severin's group!""I'm going to eat more too and avenge my daughter. If you can hear me up there, sweetie, I hope you know that Mister Severin has finally avenged you!" A middle-aged man ran toward the black python's body with a knife in hand."Can it really prolong our lives and increase our resistance?" Felicia's eyes lit up instantly when she heard that and she remarked excitedly, "I'll make sure to eat more tonight."Diane could not help but smile. "Didn't you tell Severin not to stay here when he said he'd help them? You seem incredibly happy right now."Felicia rolled her eyes at Diane. "I knew that he was powerful, but I didn't expect him to be that powerful. Besides, why would I be unhappy when I'm getting so many benefits by eating this black python?"Before long, the fat man and his two employees came over while carry
Severin frowned slightly and remarked in an unsure tone, "Perhaps they will. But even though the governors of the nine provinces generally don't have a lot of contact or interactions with the four war gods, they will feel obliged to keep up appearances and attend if the province governors invited them.""Doesn't that mean you can meet four apprentices again?" Megan covered her mouth and giggled.Severin said with a wry smile, "You need to keep a low profile for me when we're out, Megan. Don't just mention so casually that the war gods are my apprentices. They are the war gods, after all. They are concerned about the public repercussions. Besides, I'm their master, so I can't be bothering them all the time, and I can't expect them to help me whenever I encounter any trouble. They're busy people."Megan nodded. "I get it now. If you run into trouble that even you can't handle, then they wouldn't be able to handle it either!""We should get going. Our first order of business is to cho
"Okay, okay! I know! Ugh, this is such a drag!" Megan replied impatiently to her mother."I think you should take a step back when it comes to anything involving her love life, Mom. Whether or not the guy she likes is rich doesn't matter because we already have more than enough to spend for the rest of our lives. If he's poor, we can just let him stay with our family as a live-in son-in-law." Diane comforted Felicia."But… but I just want the best for her!" Felicia grumbled.They soon went back into their respective cars, but unlike earlier, it was Severin and Diane's car that was at the front. After all, they were the ones who chose which hotel to stay, so the other cars merely followed behind them. However, Severin did not expect to be stopped by several of the city's guards when he reached the city entrance."Is something the matter?" Severin got out of the car and asked the guard.The person who seemed to be in charge said with a smile, "My apologies, but anyone who wishes to
Megan smiled immediately and said, "Hehe, you're the best! Diane was right to choose you."Diane rolled her eyes at Megan as soon as she heard that remark. "Then why did you initially persuade me to leave him? You were just as insistent on persuading me to be with Edward even when Severin had returned!"Megan smiled awkwardly. "That's… that's because we didn't see the bigger picture."Felicia then said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Diane. We couldn't have known then that Severin was such an amazing individual. At that time, he was an ex-convict, and Edward was the son of a second-tier family. We were hoping that you could choose someone who can give you a good life.""Okay, Mom. Let's not talk about the past. Let's just look to the future and live happily," Diane said. She did not want to talk to Felicia and Megan about that."Yeah, I know!" Felicia immediately smiled. "The past is in the past, and we need to look ahead. Our life will only get better and better in the future.""Well
"Maybe you can treat them all to dinner. I bet they'll throw themselves all over us once they know our background." The fat guy remarked when he saw Arnie's excitement.After thinking for some time, Arnie finally said, "They dress well, so there's a chance they're not gold diggers. If anything, all ten of them might be married to that man!""Whoa! That guy is one lucky b*stard then!" the fatty said. "My women ate all the good stuff after coming home with me, and now they're all plump. I can't be bothered to go home anymore, and I'd much rather have fun outside."Dave joked, "Don't your women get angry at you if you're never at home, Moby? Aren't they going to give you a hard time?"Moby said coldly, "Give me a hard time? Please. They wouldn't dare. As far as I know, they're more worried about me chasing them out of the home! They know how much their quality of life will drop if they're kicked out. They're living the high life right now, and all they do is eat, drink, and laze aroun
