The restaurant's shopkeeper was the closest to Caspian, and he could see the scene the clearest among them.He stared wide-eyed as Caspian chewed on the monster meat and bones easily in a few bites. He was astonished as the chefs could not cut open the bones with a cleaver, and they must use an ax to cut the meat!Caspian's mouthful of pearly whites was like a guillotine. At this moment, the shopkeeper only felt his neck getting cold.Besides, the shopkeeper knew well that although monster meat was a great source of vital energy for the warriors, it was challenging to digest due to its toughness.Despite owning big woks in the restaurant, the chefs still needed to continuously cook the monster meat for two days and two nights for it to be cooked through.However, an ordinary warrior might need around eight days to fully digest the dishes, yet the young man in front of him seemed to have a black hole in his belly.Caspian devoured every dish that appeared before him, and he did no
Caspian found out from the shopkeeper that Evergreen Town expanded multiple times in the recent decades. They were in the recently developed new town, and the original old town was just next to it. However, there was a wall separating the old town and the new town.After the new town was built, many residences and families moved over gradually. Nonetheless, the old town was not abandoned just because of that. The homeless and unemployed used it as a shelter, and the unscrupulous traders also set their establishments there. Illegal transactions were also conducted in the old town as no one was there to supervise them.Thus, the old town slowly became a very messy place.Was that place disorderly? Not really. After all, everyone had a set of established guidelines in that place.Was that place a prosperous and peaceful place, where everyone respected each other? Well, one would say they were blind if they described the old town that way. After all, there would be unclaimed co
Caspian was not wrong. Although he lived there, both the things inside and outside the courtyard belonged to the Lawrence family.Hence, the people were happily smashing their belongings.In an instant, the few Lawrence family members had exciting emotions showing on their faces — regret, shock, anger, humiliation... Seeing Caspian hugging his elbows and sneering at them, the leading guy returned to his senses and flew into a rage from humiliation. "Casper! Stop acting so arrogantly! Let me tell you something that’ll make you wet your pants!"Caspian raised his brows. "Oh? Alright. Go ahead and say it. I have something to say that can make you wet your pants too.""You… B*stard!" The man knew Caspian had a glib tongue when he witnessed Caspian's fight with Harold. Hence, he could only glare at Caspian and cursed at him."We're here to inform you of one thing! Get your ass over to the chamber council now! The chief and the others are discussing something, and they want to chas
Caspian was not familiar with the layout of Lawrence Manor. After a while, he finally arrived at the solemn and dignified council chamber.As soon as he entered the chamber, Caspian could feel that the atmosphere was tense.About twenty Lawrence family members stood around, whereas James sat at the main seat surrounded by Keith and a few older people.Caspian guessed that those older people were the Lawrence family's elders.Jordan, who Caspian taught a lesson before he left the house this morning, appeared miserable as he sat on a chair nearby. Jordan was bandaged, and he stared at Caspian with a spiteful gaze."Casper! You dare to enter?"Caspian just entered the room when he heard a loud and angry voice.Then, Caspian looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in his fifties standing behind Jordan, who appeared somewhat similar to Jordan."If I don't enter, are you going to carry me in?" Caspian sneered as he glanced at him."You!" The man widened his eyes in anger,
"Stop spurting nonsense!" Jordan's father instantly rushed out and cursed at Caspian. Then, he pointed at Caspian and roared, "That's just a third-grade weapon, so why would Jordan be interested in it! Stop trying to find excuses!"Keith warned, "Casper, even if you want to find an excuse, you should make up a believable one. Do you think that Caspian would be interested in your third-grade spear? Or perhaps you think the Lawrence family members are all fools?"Previously, Keith treated Caspian ruthlessly. Now, he was aiming at Caspian. With one sentence, Keith managed to put Caspian against the entire Lawrence family. Hence, his viciousness was evident.The atmosphere in the council chamber instantly became denser, and all the pressure was on Caspian. If he did not provide a satisfactory explanation, Caspian might die a horrible death! However, there was no panic on Caspian's face. Instead, he looked at Keith and sneered, "Master Keith, are you sure that my spear is just a third-
The words, my child, already explained many problems. Moreover, James spoke to Caspian with a negotiation tone, which was completely different from the previous hostile situation in the council chamber.Jordan's father, Keith, and those Lawrence family members who were cheering, all looked miserable at the moment.Caspian bowed as he cupped his hands. "Uncle James, the matter should be obvious now. Jordan saw that my Silver Scales Spear had an inscription on it, so he wanted to covet it, forcing me to give it to him. Nevertheless, this Silver Scales Spear was given to me by you, and you placed hope on me with this spear, Uncle James. Thus, Silver Scales Spear is not just a spear, but a spear of hope, which represents your hope for me, and I'll never give it away. However, no matter how hard I tried to explain, Jordan wouldn't listen, and he even reached to grab my spear. In the end, I had no choice… After all, it was not easy for me to reach the fourth stage of the True Martial Rea
Those that were present in this council mainly were the Lawrence family's seniors. Hence, they knew that each time the Lawrence family visited the Oceans Chamber of Commerce to purchase inscriptions, they would need to pay a hefty price.Those lower-grade inscriptions were still affordable as they just needed to buy those inscriptions drawn on paper.However, once they wanted to engrave the inscription on a weapon, the Lawrence family not only needed to pay for the inscription material cost, but they also needed to pay a high price for the inscription itself. Moreover, the cost of inscription itself was usually much more costly than the inscription materials.However, Caspian suggested drawing four pieces of inscription for the Lawrence family. In contrast, he only took one for himself, which was simply a charity.After all, drawing inscriptions required a lot of energy.Under James's order, someone quickly brought over the materials that Caspian needed.The council chamber was
"No! That's not it!" Chris did not expect that Maisie would have such a big reaction, and he was startled. He hurriedly blocked her path and explained, "He didn't come, but someone else did."William noticed something fishy and asked, "Eh? What's going on? Are you saying someone else is here to sell the same weight inscription?"Maisie stopped in her tracks, and her expression turned solemn.Chris quickly answered, "That's not the case. A Lawrence family member brought this weight inscription over, and he wanted me to verify its authenticity. I noticed that the pattern was the same as the teenager's, so I rushed over to let you two take a look at it.""I see." Maisie felt slightly better.She had the same reaction as William just now, thinking that someone else was selling the weight inscription. If that was the case, it meant the youngster was a cheat.When Chris mentioned that someone else was here, Maisie felt an ineffable pang of disappointment in her heart. Nonetheless, af
