Under the respectful eyes of others, Leon stood tall as he kept his trembling hand behind his back.In truth, he only reached the Intermediate Overlord State instead of the Advanced Overlord State as the others were led to believe.He only managed to defeat Walter because he possessed both spiritual and true energies, with the aid of the Double Attack.Still, Walter was slightly more powerful than him and though he barely managed to fend off Walter's true energy with his spiritual energy, he took damage to his arm.Naturally, compared to the state Walter was in, Leon's injury was hardly severe."Walter Field, take this!"Once his arm slightly recovered from the initial impact, Leon's fist charged toward Walter yet again."H- Hold him off!!" Walter shouted in fear.If he could not defeat Leon when he was at full strength, he would be helpless if he was attacked by Leon when he was injured.Completely forgoing his pride as the leader of one of the Four Major Families, he rolled
"Damn it!" Leon's expression darkened.The Fields outnumbered him and since there were a few Semi-Overlords in the group, the combined strength of the Fields was not to be underestimated.Though Leon was powerful, he did not dare to face such an attack directly.He gave up on chasing after Walter and backed away, dodging all the attacks from the other Fields, before launching a Double Attack again at the Fields.The Fields closest to Leon were instantly sent flying off, all suffering severe injuries.Leon was never a cruel man who enjoyed killing, and he knew that a massacre was the last thing he needed as it might catch the eye of the Dragon Corps.Since he showed mercy, the Fields only suffered injuries and none of them died from his attack.Walter took the chance to dart toward Denzel, before grabbing him and hurrying away.Once Walter and Denzel succeeded in running, the other Fields immediately followed."You Fields sure run fast!" Leon scoffed.He knew that he was only
"It's about time we settle this score between us!" Leon sneered and walked toward Harold; each step he took felt like a hammer slamming against Harold's heart."Leon Wolf, wh- what are you going to do?" He paled and quivered, the arrogance on his face finally vanishing."I've promised to kill Jacob first, before finishing you as well to avenge Iris and Louisa! I'm a man of my words!" Leon gritted out ferociously."What?! You wouldn't dare!" Sensing the malicious aura oozing off of Leon, Harold gasped in fear."You'll find out soon if I dare to kill you!" Leon said fiercely.Harold was not like the Fields. Though the Fields plotted against Leon as well, they focused their target on Leon and did not harm the people around him; whereas Harold did whatever he could think of to eliminate Leon, including capturing Iris and Ruth, which almost cost Louisa her life in the process.Harold was the mastermind of all that happened and he must die.Iris was his woman and Louisa was her cousin
Vincent said."No! Harold ordered Jacob to carry out his dirty work and came close to getting Louisa and Iris dead. I will kill him right here and now to seek revenge on their behalf!" Leon said with determination.Though the Dragon Corps had its rules, he also had his values and rules. Since Harold dared to harm his woman and the people he cared about, Harold must die."But-"George and Vincent still wanted to talk Leon out of it, but Leon simply interrupted them and said, "That's enough! Harold Lowe, prepare to die!" He scoffed, before launching a punch at Harold at the speed of lightning."What?!" Harold was terrified.He never expected Leon to show no fear toward the Dragon Corps and to intend on killing him.Panicking, he backed away from Leon's attack despite the pain that threatened to overwhelm him. However, the difference in strength was too big to overcome when he was heavily injured, so no matter how hard he tried, Leon managed to get closer and closer by the second.
Daisy spat resentfully.Back when Leon first started dating Iris, she could already tell that he was a potential threat to her and Harold, so she manipulated Albert and Gilbert into breaking the two apart.Unfortunately, Iris risked her own life to get Leon back and with his help, Daisy and Harold eventually lost the battle.It was hardly an exaggeration to say that the Youngs only managed to succeed because of Leon, and Gilbert had nothing to do with their victory.Daisy had no respect for a man as useless and short-sighted as Gilbert."Shut it! You b*tch! I'm going to kill you!" Furious, Gilbert gathered his true energy in his palm, desperate to tear Daisy apart."You don't get to kill me! Now that Harold's dead, I don't plan on living on my own!" Daisy said and narrowed her eyes viciously, before pulling out a dagger, "Harold, wait for me. I'm coming with you."She gave Harold one last lingering glance, before stabbing herself in the chest.Right before she drew her last bre
"M- Mister Wolf, the Northern King is dead and we are just his subordinates. We were only following orders. We never mean to participate in any of these. Please have mercy and spare our lives!" Jackson and the other Lowes kneeled and pleaded.Leon withdrew from his thoughts and turned to look at Vincent. "Uncle Vincent, I'll leave them to you! Please look into their background and punish anyone who has done unspeakable deeds! As for the ones who are innocent, please let them go!""Sure. I'll go now, then!" Vincent nodded, before leaving with his men and the Lowes.Once they left, Melvin, the elders, and members of the Youngs kneeled before Albert.Leon was Iris's boyfriend and since he reached the Advanced Overlord State and defeated Daisy and Harold, Albert, Gilbert, and Iris would be able to return to the Youngs with his help, especially when there were still a lot of members among the Youngs who supported Albert.At that very moment, Albert was once again the leader of the Youn
"Heed my words, Youngs, I hereby announce that Melvin and all his descendants are to be denounced from the family. They will surrender the right to ever call themselves Youngs from now on! Any member who supported them can choose to go with them. I won't stop any of you!" Albert announced through the sorrow that overwhelmed him.After a series of events, he realized that the Youngs were rotten from within. He might have been focusing too much on the gain of the family and forgot to emphasize the bond between families, causing the descendants to grow up to be manipulative and calculative.It was never too late to change and since he now knew the issue of his family, he planned on reconstructing the family. Though that might break the Youngs apart, Albert believed that Leon would lead the Youngs to glory soon."Well," Seeing how Albert was determined, two of the elders and some other members stood behind Melvin and Jonah after a few moments of hesitation.They all supported Melvin an
At that very moment, he finally acknowledged Leon."Elder Young, we're all family here. I just did what I should do. You don't have to thank me," Leon said with a smile, before glancing at Iris.Since the night before, Iris truly became his woman and his future wife. Though he still felt slightly upset about what Albert and Gilbert did to him in the past, he forgave them out of his love for Iris. So long as Albert and Gilbert stayed in line, he would have held them against the things they did.Sensing Leon's look, Iris blushed at the knowing look in his eyes, before glancing back endearingly despite feeling shy."A family? Yeah, you're right! We are family! Leon, the Youngs' future relies heavily on you," Albert burst out laughing, all the sorrow he felt earlier vanishing within an instant.He knew that by denouncing Melvin and his descendants, the Youngs lost one Overlord and two Semi-Overlord, along with countless core members of the family.At this point, the Youngs became the
