"Greetings, elder, sirs…" Norm and Sully immediately stood at attention when they saw that it really was Arthur. Other than Arthur, who was in front, Angus, Roanne, and Yonas' father, August, were all there as well. "Norm, Sully, where's Yonas? Have him come out and see me right now!" Arthur said furiously. "Sir, h-he's dead…" Norm and Sully said with reddened eyes and a pained look on their faces. "What?" Those words were like a bomb that blew up on the spot. Whether it was Arthur, Angus, August, or the others, all of them were completely blown away by that sudden news! "What did you just say?" After Arthur recovered from his shock, he immediately grabbed Norm's collar, raising him up as he said angrily, "Norm, repeat what you said just now! What happened to Yonas?" "Sir, he's dead…" Sully repeated with great difficulty. "No! That's impossible! Yonas was completely fine. How did he suddenly die?! T-this can't be real!" Before Arthur could even say anything, August
"What?!" Hearing that, both Angus and Roanne were shocked. They could not believe their ears! Roanne, in particular, had been right there when Leon and Yonas had their conflict. She knew better than anyone how things went! At the time, Leon had only broken Yonas' arm. He did not try to kill Yonas at all! When Yonas left, he had been quite lively as he scrambled away. He did not seem to be in any danger! Yet, Norm and Sully were saying that Leon was the one who killed Yonas! That was just unbelievable! She could not believe that Leon was the one behind it! "No, that's impossible! Granduncle, even though Leon did injure Yonas, he did not use that much force! There's no way he could've killed Yonas!" Roanne did not even think about it before she spoke up in Leon's defense. "That's right! Leon's always had a good relationship with us. There's no way he would try to kill Yonas," Angus hurriedly agreed. He had not seen Leon's conflict with Yonas, but considering Leon's re
"Dad, Yonas suffered a horrible death! You have to avenge him!" Next to the bed, August held Yonas' body tightly. His eyes were red and full of anguish. "I know! I won't let Yonas die in vain! I'll find Leon right now and make him pay the price!" Arthur said furiously. The killing intent in his eyes was evident. After that, he pushed back the sadness in his heart as he ordered Norm and Sully, "Norm, Sully, both of you send Yonas' body back! Once I kill Leon, I'll make the final arrangements for Yonas. We'll make sure to appease his soul!" "Yes!" Norm and Sully answered. After that, August handed Yonas' body to the two of them. After that, his face was full of vengeful hatred as he walked out with Arthur in a murderous rage, preparing to get revenge on Leon! "No…" Roanne's heart sank when it seemed like everything was already set in stone. She knew very well what happened between Leon and Yonas. Even at that moment, she still could not believe that Leon was the one who
"What?!" Leon stood up in shock when he heard that. Even though he had already guessed the reason for Arthur and the others being there, he knew that Arthur had always been someone with a great sense of honor. Furthermore, Angus and Roanne's family was very close to him. Yonas had been the one behaving dishonorably, and he was also the one who came for Leon! Even if Yonas got hurt, he definitely deserved it! With his understanding of Arthur and Angus' character, they would probably not blame him! Yet, he never expected that things would play out this far beyond his expectations! To protect Yonas, Arthur had forced his way into Elegante with his men. His words were harsh as well, as if Arthur was there to punish Leon for Leon's crimes! It caught him completely off guard! "Come! I'll go with you to see what's the matter!" Leon said as he walked right outside. Iris and Snow were quite worried as well, so they followed along! There was a large space in front of the co
"Mister Thompson was perfectly fine. How did he suddenly die? Who killed him?" Leon was a bit uncertain after he recovered from the shock. He could not understand what happened. "Who else could it be?! Leon, you fiend. You killed my son. How dare you speak so casually right now?! I'll make sure you pay with your life to appease his soul!" August, who was beside Arthur, could not hold back his rage anymore. The person who killed his son was right in front of him. He could no longer hold back his anger and hatred as he charged forward with a powerful wave of energy, aiming right for Leon! "Are you saying that I've killed Yonas? W-what does that have to do with me?" Leon was shocked to hear that. He could not believe his ears! He finally understood why Arthur and the Thompsons were barging in and demanding for his head like that. So, they have all mistakenly believed that he was Yonas' murderer! While Leon was feeling shocked, August immediately appeared before Leon with unbelie
"Elder Quinn, a-are you okay?" Leon was stunned to see Chandler being defeated by Arthur so easily. He quickly stepped forward to help Chandler up. "I'm fine. I can still hold myself together…" Chandler huffed as he clutched his aching chest. "That's good to hear…" Leon was relieved to hear that. With that, he took out a Circulation Pill, which was perfect for healing injuries like this, and handed it to Chandler. "Leon Wolf, I'll make you pay for killing my son!" Right after saying that, August channeled all his energy into his palms and geared himself up to attack Leon to avenge his son Yonas' death! "Wait a minute! I have something to say!" Leon shouted. As furious as he was over Arthur and the rest of the Thompsons' invasion, not to mention how they had injured Chandler during the process, he still understood exactly what was happening. The Thompsons had clearly misunderstood everything and thought that he was the culprit behind Yonas' death. That was why they were seekin
"I've given you this chance to say your last words. It's not for you to weasel yourself out of your crime!" Arthur snarled, a glimmer of malice flashing through his eyes. "I'm not trying to weasel my way out! This is the truth!" Leon replied calmly. "Very well, then! I've given you a chance. It's not my fault if you chose to waste it! I shall make you pay for what you did to Yonas! You're going to regret this!" Arthur cackled. Then, without another word, he sent a surge of powerful energy barreling Leon's way. "Damn it!" the color had drained from Leon's face. He knew full well that Arthur was much more powerful than him, and he would be no match for Arthur at all! Without a moment's hesitation, Leon unleashed his Phantom Steps, darting away from Arthur's attack at the last moment and leaving behind only a bare silhouette of his being. "Trying to run? Not so fast! Take this!" Arthur scoffed, then switched his tactic and sent another surge of energy that writhed into a tornado
"I'll say this one more time, Elder Thompson; I'm not the one who killed Yonas! If you insist on holding me responsible for something I've never done, then you'll have to pay the price of this!" Leon spat. He chose to tolerate Arthur's cruelty not because he was scared of Arthur, but out of respect! Although Arthur already attained the Advanced Almighty State and was thus far more powerful than him, Leon still had plenty of tricks up his sleeve, which included the final Potential Energy Force! The Potential Energy Forces were much more powerful than even Arthur himself! If Arthur chose not to take the hint and continued attacking him, Leon would have no choice but to employ the Potential Energy Force against him! "You're going to make me pay? You're certainly cocky for your age, Leon Wolf! Well, I'd like to see what you have to show! Take this!" Arthur was again infuriated by Leon's arrogance. He channeled his energy and sent a fireball charging straight toward Leon, intending
