If Niffler was looking for Scarlet all over the city, she would be doomed. “Cut the crap and do as you’re told!” Alton was angry that Scarlet dared to refuse his order. “How dare you question me?” He slapped Scarlet and sent her flying. Scarlet stared at Alton in shocked disbelief. She never dreamed that she would be beaten. Scarlet relied on her beauty and the charm technique that she was so proud of to take Alton down. However, Alton hit her! Scarlet walked out, full of grievance and resentment. Scarlet was worried about Niffler’s pursuit, but she was more indignant about being played out by Alton. Scarlet vowed to take revenge. “Damn it, all men are no good!” Scarlet scowled and headed to Cod Residence in anger. It was not that far, so it did not take Scarlet too long to reach. Most of them knew that Scarlet was the mayor’s blue-eyed girl. Scarlet entered the house without a hitch and quickly found Jeff. Jeff was playing with his storage ring. All the pills and w
Jeff heard that two members of the family managed to get the first five spots, so they would definitely get two storage rings. However, the good news was quickly ruined. Why would Vance do such a thing? “That’s impossible. The Cod family and the mayor’s residence both received two spots. We should get two storage rings each. Why would Vance do this?” Jeff expressed doubts. Scarlet shrugged and said, “Go find out if you don’t believe me. It has become a big deal now. Everyone is demanding an explanation.” Everyone knew the culprit and felt resentful toward the Cod family. All the customers cursed and complained, not only because of the storage rings but also everything else. Treasure House had decided to stop the sale of storage rings. After learning the news, everyone went into an uproar. This was out of their expectations. They could get an opportunity by queuing up before this, but the chance was lost now! In an instant, the Cod family became the target of public outr
Meanwhile, the Cod family was in an uproar. They were panicking, but no one knew how to deal with it. Vance’s impulsive move caught them by surprise and forced the Cod family into a corner. “What should we do? We need to tell the family head about this!” “But she said no one is allowed to disturb her when she’s sleeping!” “Those people are going to make their way in here soon. If we don’t tell her right now, we’ll end up dead!” Everyone was nervous and worried. Since Emma took over the reins of the Cod family, her status was different. She became the head of the Cod family overnight. Emma had a weird temper and immediately set some rules, such as not to disturb her when she was sleeping. Everyone was panicking. It was a big crime to disturb her sleep, and they would most likely be exiled from the family. Finally, someone could not contain their fear and went to wake Emma up. Emma was very angry when she woke up, but it was quickly replaced by panic when she heard the
“Do you know what you’re saying? Are you telling me to push my precious son out and let everyone abuse him? You’re such a brutal person!” Emma was very angry and wished she could yell at Jeff. Jeff scoffed inwardly but looked at Emma without a word.… On Philip’s side, he heard about the uproar as well. Since Philip had a grudge against the Cod family, Philip was very excited to hear about it. He decided to add fuel to the fire. Philip announced that Treasure House would stop the sale of storage rings but lamented the fact that they had many rings on hand. Everyone became more furious at the news. They thought Treasure House was running low on storage rings, which was why they decided to stop selling them. Hearing otherwise meant that they had lost the opportunity to buy a storage ring at a low price. Those who did not oppose Vance earlier changed their minds. They gathered together to protest in front of Vance’s house. As more and more people gathered outside the Co
“Besides, I have bad news for you. Two of the storage rings should've belonged to the mayor.” Jeff said everything in one go, breaking Emma's confidence again and again. This old woman had always been proud and arrogant. He wanted to use this opportunity to drive her into despair. Emma’s initial steadfast expression was quickly replaced by anger and worry. Especially when Jeff mentioned the mayor, Emma scowled with a trace of despair. “What? The mayor is involved in this?” Emma panicked, at a loss for what to do. “What should I do now? I can’t force Vance into a corner!” Emma roared in a panic while Jeff left after finishing his cup of tea. He did not waste his time anymore. Anyway, he had suggested a solution. It was none of his business whether Emma accepted it or not. In the meantime, Vance did not return home. He found a diner and was eating and drinking happily with his men. “We did a big job today, boys! Now that we have disrupted the queue order, let’s see if tho
The guards struggled desperately and wondered why they were captured. At this time, Vance sobered up and looked around blankly. “What are you doing?!” Vance struggled frantically but could not break free. He could not resist the troublemakers at all. Very soon, Vance was carried out by the crowd. His guards were knocked unconscious and left behind in the private room. Those people were not important. Their target was Vance. Vance was hoisted up like grilled meat on a barbeque and paraded around the street. They cursed at Vance and blamed him for what he had done. Hearing that, everyone scowled. The people who knew the truth started beating him up. Those who were unaware of the situation also got angry and hit him after learning the truth. Vance was bombarded with rotten eggs and vegetables along the way. He kept wailing but to no avail. “Let me go! Do you know who I am? I’m the eldest young sir of the Cod family! I’ll remember everything you did today!” Before Vance cou
Philip shook his head and shut the door. This happened right in front of his store, so it was difficult for him not to watch the excitement. He had wasted enough time. Philip left a few instructions and left the Guzo Continent. When Philip returned to the other world, not much time had passed. A week was not that long. More than half the time had passed, but the people here did not seem ready yet. The people under his command had improved by leaps and bounds, but that was not the case for the others. After living in comfort for such a long time, it was difficult for them to return to a state of battle. Even the people in the temple could not do that. “Philip, we’re running out of time. I can feel the power of the seal weakening rapidly. I think something will happen in the next few days,” Elijah said nervously, looking worried. He had sent many people to take care of things, but various beasts were emerging from the sealed land one after another, including terrifying demonic
The two races had developed a friendship and a common understanding between them, or the monster beasts would not be working so hard to take care of the seal. Seeing the few people left in the villa, Philip sighed. The situation here was far worse than that on Guzo Continent. “I’ll go to the Guzo Continent and bring some reinforcements over right now. Keep a lookout to see if we need to take care of anything in the sealed land.” After saying this, Philip turned around and returned to the room to fetch Granite and the others from the Guzo Continent. Granite and the others were still in a state of confusion when Philip brought them here. Even Treasure House was closed for business in advance. After putting up the notice, Noelle followed Philip back to the other world, which was currently facing a grave crisis. They had to lend a helping hand. Philip had no idea the impact he had brought to Cosmo City because of his actions. He simply needed help from his capable subordinates.
“Foxy was the one controlling the beast stampede earlier. The beasts would've razed this place to the ground if I hadn't stopped them in time.” Philip shook his head helplessly. The fence around Deadly Arena had been flattened during the stampede, enough to prove how terrible the earlier battle was. “But of course!” Foxy nodded smugly. The people here would probably be in bad shape if she had not stopped the attack in time. Philip smiled and shook his head. “This young lady is a force to be reckoned with. She simply had to blow a flute to control all the beasts.""I'm sure that all the guilds will try every means to capture Foxy if they find out about her ability,” Lyle said, envious of her ability. Aslan sighed awkwardly. As a monster beast, he had no ability in other areas at all. He could only use his brawn to intimidate others. As if he felt the difference in strength, Aslan lowered his head and was too embarrassed to say another word. Foxy chatted with everyone happil
Aslan was surprised to see Philip bringing a petite and beautiful woman back all of a sudden. “Hey, Philip, where did you pick up such a beautiful woman? I'm so envious.” “You sure have luck with women, Philip. You picked up such a beautiful woman just by going out. It’d be great if I have such luck too.” Aslan and Lyle started teasing Philip, annoying him so much that he almost knocked them out. “Cut the crap. Her name is Foxy, and she's our new teammate. Come with me, everyone. We need to find a safe place to discuss our next plans.” Philip quickly took everyone away. He looked very excited, obviously looking forward to his next plan. Everyone nodded excitedly at Philip’s appearance. They were also curious, wondering what Philip was going to do. Since the beasts had retreated, everyone returned to the lounge area for a break without further ado. Deadly Arena would also be closed for the day and reopen the next day. The inn Philip chose for them was quite luxurious, an
Since their master was dead, these subordinates had to approach the people of Deadly Arena for help. They would be bullied without a master to take charge. They finally found a chance to join a strong employer. Now that he was dead, everyone was at a loss for what to do. “What? He’s dead? This is too much. Find out who those people are. I don’t care which force they belong to or who they have behind them, we need to wipe them out!” This person was Amos, the second in command of Deadly Arena. He knew how to deal with such provocation. “These people are too bold to touch a member of my family. Everyone knows that our children are powerful and undefeatable on this battlefield.” The second in command was annoyed and not in the mood to deal with this incident. His anger over this matter added to his initial agitation. His subordinates were surprised to see his irritation. “What’s wrong, Amos? Why are you so upset? Are the beasts up to something again?” As the second-in-comma
On the battlefield, Aslan was puzzled by the beasts’ sudden retreat. “Maybe the beasts are scared shitless by our strong combat power and decided to give up.” “You got that right. I killed several of them at once and looked really cool.” “But I have a feeling that the beasts this year are much stronger and have greater potential.” Everyone spoke excitedly. The people who killed many beasts had returned for their rewards. They thought highly of the rewards and could not wait to take all the treasures of Deadly Arena.… “Can you control the beasts from a distance?” Philip asked curiously. Foxy nodded. “I can control these beasts no matter where I am. It’s my individual talent.” Since everything went as planned, Philip pondered what to do next. “You should come with me. I’ll tell you about my next plan in detail.” Philip decided to bring Foxy into Deadly Arena. Foxy nodded seriously. She trusted Philip very much and never doubted him at all. He felt a little embarra
This young lady was finally strong enough to protect the beasts. “The grudge between me and those people runs so deep that I’ll never forgive them, so you can forget about it. You look like a good person, so I won’t make things difficult for you. You should leave this dreadful place at once.” Philip smiled helplessly at her words. “Don't worry, I don't like the people from Deadly Arena either, and I have a grudge against them too. In fact, everything happened because of them, so you don’t have to worry about it. If you want to restore this mysterious island to a place where the beasts can live in peace, you should work with me.” These people were not easy to deal with. Although Philip could deal with them with his strength, he would have to pay a price for it. It would be best if he had help. Philip had many ideas. “I’m surprised that you have a grudge against them too. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let’s talk about this.” The woman smiled excitedly. “My name is Foxy. I
Seeing the woman’s horror, Philip scratched his head awkwardly. He did not expect that her reaction would be so intense. “Don't worry, I'm not a good person.” After saying that, Philip sat down nonchalantly as if he was not worried about this powerful woman. Seeing Philip’s disregard for her, the woman was so angry that she could barely speak.“As you can see, I’m one of those humans,” Philip introduced himself. Philip had nothing to hide. His identity was no secret. “So, you’re one of those disgusting humans. You look quite strong. Since you found me, I’ll accept my fate. Just kill me if you want. There’s no need to insult me any further.” This woman was quite interesting. She jerked her chin up as if she was ready to let Philip kill her. Philip sighed at her reaction. Why was someone so eager to die? “I don’t want to kill you. I’m just curious about you. I just arrived at Deadly Arena recently,” Philip said to the other party sincerely. He was very curious about the
“You’re right, someone is controlling these beasts behind the scenes. Although I don’t know if the culprit is a powerful beast or a guild, they're not to be trifled with.” Philip did not hide this information but asked his men to take action. Since they were already here, they had to ensure their safety. No one would be exempted if anything happened. “You can join in the fight, but don’t try too hard. Just kill a few beasts and wait until I get to the bottom of this,” Philip said to his people. He was afraid that his men would work too hard but end up with nothing. Everyone nodded solemnly at Philip’s instructions. They quickly joined the battlefield and casually swung their weapons around, killing the arrogant beasts. Due to their strength, they easily crushed the beasts without much effort. As the fight reached its peak, Philip observed the source of the beast stampede. “Do you see that? The beasts are coming from that direction, and they’re clearly well-organized and d
Philip noticed the change and frowned at the mysterious man, whose expression changed drastically. “This is bad. I’ve never heard this alarm before.” After saying this, he invited Philip to go with him to Deadly Arena to find out what happened. They arrived at Deadly Arena and saw everyone staring ahead nervously as if waiting for someone to speak. Philip’s guild members noticed his return and approached him nervously. Aslan ran up to Philip worriedly. “Philip, I asked around and found something wrong. Deadly Arena is a dangerous place because it’s situated next to the beast forest. This situation has happened from time to time in the past, but no one was bothered. They’d even organize teams to hunt the beasts and Deadly Arena would provide rewards for this.” Philip roughly understood the situation from Aslan’s explanation. Since Deadly Arena had been managing this place for so long, they had taken responsibility for the safety issue. Once the beasts appeared, they would ensu
Argent thought he had come up with a good plan to set Philip up, but he was the fool who was kept in the dark in the end. Philip smiled at Argent’s angry departure and invited the mysterious man to his room. Although Philip chatted with him earlier, he did not know much about him. Philip could tell that the man had concealed his true appearance. Philip was curious to see what would happen. The mysterious man noticed Philip’s anticipation but simply stared at him in silence. Philip wanted to know his identity and purpose for coming here. “I really think highly of you. It’d be best if you could join me.” He knew that Philip would not give in so easily, so his rationality told him to give up. “It’s impossible for me to join you, but I’m curious about your situation. I believe you have a grudge against that guy or you wouldn’t resent him so much.” Philip smiled at the guy. He knew that the grudge between the two was very deep. The mysterious man was surprised that Philip
