Alfred sneered "You want to know why? I'll tell you the truth! Leon Wolf's one of our-" Leon was prepared for his identity to be known by all when he sought help from the Dragon Corp. Though it was best that no one knew Leon was a Dragon Guard, Alfred intended to announce it to prevent the Southern Boss from attacking Leon again. That way, the Dragon Corps would have a legitimate reason to fight the Southern Boss as well. However, before he could complete his sentence, Leon interrupted him. "Hang on!" He only prepared to let his real identity known because he worried he might be a match for the Southern Boss. However, the Southern Boss was defeated and his family deserted him, so Leon saw no point in revealing his identity as a Dragon Guard. "Mister Glasbey, the Southern Boss has worked with the Demon Lord to commit horrible crimes. I assume that you have caught wind of the Demon Lord's whereabouts and hurried over," Leon winked at Alfred. "I see!" Everyone instantly understo
"Sir, Mister Wolf has eliminated the Demon Lord. His body's right there!" Arthur explained and pointed at the Demon Lord's corpse. "What?! The Demon Lord's dead? How's that possible?!" Alfred and his subordinates were all stunned. They hurried over to check on the Demon Lord's corpse and once they confirmed his identity, they all exchanged looks of bewilderment. They all knew just how mighty the Demon Lord was and even if they were all to attack at the same time, they might not have been capable of killing the Demon Lord. To their bewilderment, such a formidable criminal was killed by Leon. Though Leon once took down the Poisonwielder and the Scarlet Thief, the Demon Lord was far more powerful than these two criminals and it was almost a miracle that Leon defeated the Demon Lord on his own. "How wonderful! Leon, as expected of you! You never disappoint!" Alfred recovered from the initial shock and laughed. Ever since Leon joined the Southern region Dragon Corps, he took dow
"Baam!" Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Alfred's true energy caught onto the Southern Boss and sent him flying. As soon as the Southern Boss landed, he instantly realized that a few of his bones were broken and he started bleeding as he struggled to get up. "Southern Boss, how dare you work with the Demon Lord to commit such crimes?! You'll be punished for this! I advise that you follow us to the Dragon Corps to accept punishment and save yourself some suffering," Alfred said sternly, before charging toward the Southern Boss to capture him. Though there was enough proof that the Southern Boss was working with the Demon Lord, Dragon Guards were all abided by rules and the rules dictated that they needed to take the Southern Boss back for a trial. Hence, he did not attempt to take the Southern Boss's life. However, if the Southern Boss fought back, that would no longer happen. "It's over!" The Southern Boss's heart sank as he watched Alfred closing in their distance. Tho
"Haha! That's right. It's me! Alfred, I didn't expect you to reach the Peak Almighty State. It's no wonder you and your Dragon Guards manage to kill so many members of the criminal list!" Hades smirked. The Southern Boss reached out to the Demon Lord and Hades, and Hades did not agree to the request at first. However, he soon recalled something important. Criminals on the criminal list perished one after another recently, leaving only three criminals on the list. The southern branch especially took the Poisonwielder down, the Scarlet Thief, and Asmodeus alone. Though he did not know how the Dragon Guards from the southern region managed to do so, he knew that if this continued, the Dragon Corps would soon turn their focus on the top three criminals. This alerted Hades and he decided at the last minute to sneak his way to the southern region and spy on the Dragon Guards to investigate the death of the other criminals so that he could avoid suffering the same fate. Because of
"Yes!" Following Aldred's order, the Dragon Guards all leaped into action and darted toward Hades and the Southern Boss. Alfred knew that Hades was slightly more powerful than him, and dared not to underestimate his opponent, so he fired up his true energy and attacked Hades alongside the other Dragon Guards. "Know your place!" Hades scoffed and sent a powerful wave of true energy at Alfred and the Dragon Guards. "Baam! Baam! Baam!" The Dragon Guards backed away under the impact, leaving only Alfred to fend off Hades's attack. He clenched his fists and darted toward Hades at the speed of lightning. He knew that he was slightly weaker than Hades since he just reached the Peak Almighty State a few days ago, but since he was at the same power level as Hades, he stood a chance. So long as he managed to stall Hades, the Dragon Guards should be able to help and they would still stand a chance of winning. "As expected of the top guy in the southern region branch of the Dragon
"How powerful!" Leon paled. Back when he used the poisonous daggers on others, they all merely managed to strike the daggers down at best. To his bewilderment, Hades managed to turn those daggers right back at him. Caught by surprise, he dared not to hesitate and executed the Phantom Steps to dodge. Instantly, the daggers landed on the spot where Leon was; thankfully, Leon narrowly escaped the daggers or he would have died on the spot. "You got lucky this time!" Hades shot Leon a sidelong glance, before grabbing the Southern Boss to leap out of the mansion. "Damn it!" Alfred's expression darkened when he saw the Southern Boss escape with Hades. "Leon, Hades can't get far if he is carrying the Southern Boss! I'll leave two Dragon Guards here with you, and the rest will follow me and chase them down!" Alfred said decisively. With both the Demon Lord and Hades spotted in the southern region, he assumed that the central region was informed on the matter and the Dragon Guards
"Heed my words, Hiltons! I'll give you one last chance! Yield now, and we'll spare your lives! Refuse, and we'll show no mercy!" Arthur shouted, his voice powerful and overwhelming. The Thompsons were the head of all families in the southern region with a grand reputation. Naturally, Arthur did not wish to kill unless it was necessary. Since Devon was already dead, the rest of the Hiltons only worked under order and were not entirely responsible. If they were willing to admit defeat, the Thompsons need not kill them. "It's over!" The Hiltons' hearts sank. Following the Spears' betrayal, Devon was killed and the Southern Boss was on the run, so they no longer had the strength to fight the Thompsons. Arthur and Leon now returned to the battlefield and if they refused to surrender, they would meet their demise. With that thought in mind, their hearts were all filled with despair.Someone kneeled and the other Hiltons instantly followed that person's lead, choosing to surrende
"Elders, you all heard what Mister Wolf said! Do as he said!" Arthur said to the elders. "Yes!" The four elders of the Thompsons responded, before proceeding to strike the Energy Sea Points of the Hiltons' member. The Hiltons wailed and screamed, before collapsing onto the ground helplessly. "Mister Wolf, Elder Thompsons, thank you for sparing our lives," They muttered. Though their power was taken away from them, Leon and Arthur kept their promise and spared their lives, which was considered ideal. On top of that, Leon gave them three days to leave the southern region, which meant that they still had time to sell their properties. So long as they stayed in line, they would be able to gather enough money to live the rest of their lives in peace. Instantly, they were all grateful for Leon. "Alright, you may now leave! I hope you stay in line from now on!" Leon said coldly. "Yes!" The Hiltons sighed a breath of relief and stood up, before leaving hurriedly. Before they
