"It's all over..." Chandler was heartbroken as he sensed the Scarlet Thief's ferocious attack. He had only just gotten up from the ground. There was no time for the Scarlet Thief to dodge the attack because he was far too fast. He could only stand there and watch the Scarlet Thief's energy charge toward him. If he took the attack, he would almost certainly die instantly unless a miracle occurred. "Don't you dare!" Leon had just caught up to them at that point. When Leon realized Chandler was in danger, he used the Phantom Steps to move at breakneck speed and stop in front of him. He could only angle his chest to receive the attack with his Mirror of Sovereign because he didn't have time to counter the attack. The Scarlet Thief's attack collided with Leon's chest, making a deafening noise. Leon, on the other hand, remained unharmed. "Die, Scarlet Thief!" Frustrated by the Scarlet Thief's repeated escape attempts, Leon refused to let the opportunity to kill the Scarlet Thief
"Great! The Scarlet Thief is finally dead!" "We have avenged our families!" ... Henry and Chandler burst into tearful laughter at the same time. The Scarlet Thief had killed their families, and Leon managed to uphold justice for them, so their hearts were instantly filled with great joy. Sherlyn, who stood behind them, was also as excited. Her parents died at the hands of the Scarlet Thief years ago, and she could still remember the sight of them dying in agony. Tears welled in her eyes at the thought that her parents were finally being avenged. She could not help but sob in joy. Henry and Chandler snapped out of it shortly after and fell onto their knees before Leon. Sherlyn followed their lead and took a few steps forward before kneeling as well. "What are you guys doing? Get up!" Leon was caught by surprise and hurried over to help them up. "Mister Wolf, thank you for killing the Scarlet Thief and avenging us! We don't even know how we can ever repay our debt t
"Great! That's settled, then! Stop bowing!" Overjoyed, Leon immediately asked Chandler, Henry, and Sherlyn to get up. His main goal in visiting Chandler was to recruit him into Cynthion Group and resolve the security crisis the company was facing. Since his purpose had been fulfilled, there was no reason for Leon to stay there any longer. "Chandler, why don't you pack up and leave with us?" Leon asked. "Sure!" Chandler agreed before returning to his hut to gather his belongings. In the meantime, Leon ordered Mason to shove the Scarlet Thief's body into the trunk of the car while he went to pick up the three daggers he had thrown earlier. The poison on his daggers was Deadly Veratrum poison. It was extremely rare, so Leon did not intend to waste them since they had missed the Scarlet Thief earlier. After retrieving his daggers, Chandler went out of the hut and got into the car with the others to leave. ... Meanwhile, in the yard of the southern region branch of the Drago
Just then, following the sound of footsteps, Abraham strode in. "Mister Glasbey, the people from the eastern region branch have arrived!" He reported respectfully.Since the Dragon Guards from the eastern region traveled a long way to assist him, Alfred arranged for Oliver and Abraham to wait outside the door.Oliver was left to wait with the backup team while Abraham hurried inside to report to Alfred about their arrival."Good! Invite them in!" Alfred said in excitement."It's fine! We're already here!" Just then, a powerful laughter echoed in the air and an old man in his seventies walked in alongside Oliver, followed by seven Dragon Guards from the eastern region.They all had watchful glares and powerful presence, and anyone would be able to tell that they were formidable."I'm Zack Weymark, a third-level Platinum Dragon Guard from the eastern region, Mister Glasbey.""Greetings, Mister Glasbey."...The old man took the lead to bow at Alfred, while the others along with
Just as the Dragon Guards were about to take off, a bright voice echoed in the air and Leon strode in."That won’t be necessary!""Leon?" Alfred was surprised to see Leon there.He gathered several Dragon Guards but did not summon Leon."Mister Glasbey." Leon bowed respectfully before Alfred."Leon, why are you here?" Alfred asked in confusion."Oh, Mister Glasbey, I've killed the Scarlet Thief, so I came to report back to you and save you all from the time and effort of going after him," Leon explained.He knew that Alfred was planning an attack against the Scarlet Thief along with the Dragon Guards from the eastern region.As soon as Leon left where Chandler used to live, he ordered Mason to take Chandler back to the mansion where Henry and Sherlyn lived, before driving over to the Dragon Corps with the Scarlet Thief's corpse to report the latest development to Alfred so that the Dragon Guards would not have to waste time going after the Scarlet Thief.On top of that, Leon o
"That's right! I've assassinated the Scarlet Thief. I can assure you that it is accurate!" Leon nodded solemnly."Good! Leon, you're fantastic!" Alfred burst out laughing, overjoyed.Alfred had spent enough time with Leon since he reported to the southern region of Dragon Corps to know what kind of man he was.Alfred had no doubts after Leon assured him that the Scarlet Thief was dead.The Scarlet Thief wreaked havoc in the southern region and was considered the common enemy of all Dragon Guards in the region. However, the Scarlet Thief was far too powerful and skilled at hiding his tracks, so despite their best efforts, they were unable to apprehend him.Leon managed to kill the Scarlet Thief on his own, eliminating one of the Dragon Corps' greatest threats.Alfred's heart swelled with excitement right away."Mister Glasbey, what's going on?"Alfred's laughter perplexed the Dragon Guards from both the eastern and southern regions.'Does he really believe this kid murdered the
"Is that so? I wonder what Mister Wolf is capable of!" Zack scoffed.Like the other Dragon Guards, he did not think a young man like Leon had any quality worthy of such high praise."Zack, to tell you the truth, Leon was the one who killed both Asmodeus and the Poisonwielder on his own," Alfred explained calmly."What?!" Zack and the others instantly gasped in disbelief.When Asmodeus and the Poisonwielder were killed, Alfred reported their death to the Dragon Corps in the central region immediately, and their names were instantly removed from the criminal list.Hence, all members of the Dragon Corps were aware of their deaths with no exception. However, they all thought the two criminals were killed after being hunted by all the Dragon Guards in the southern region and did not expect Leon to accomplish that alone.It seemed so surreal that they all failed to understand how that could happen."Hang on! Mister Glasbey, I heard that the Poisonwielder was taken down by the joint ef
"Mister Glasbey, it doesn't matter who killed the Poisonwielder and Asmodeus! We came here to assist your mission in killing the Scarlet Thief! Please give the command so we can start right away!" Zack changed the subject.Though Zack guessed that Leon relied on connection instead of true power, this was merely an issue with the southern region Dragon Corps and not the Dragon Corps in the eastern region. Hence, all Zack wanted was to start the operation and eliminate the Scarlet Thief as soon as possible, so that they could all return home."Start? Zack, didn't Leon just say that he's killed the Scarlet Thief? What's there to start now?" Alfred asked."Forgive me for being blunt, Mister Glasbey, but the Scarlet Thief ranks fourth place on the criminal list because he is a powerful martial artist with a cunning mind! Even if I am to go up against him alone, I might not be able to kill him. Mister Wolf is still young and I don't think he can kill the Scarlet Thief! I think there might
