Ch. 1751..1760
The Return of God of War Chapter 1751
A few men and women in suits arrived at the scene and stopped Levi.
“From now on. Jared Schmidt is ours! No one lays a finger on him!”
The woman in the front glared at Levi.
Levi was stunned for a brief moment.
He was surprised that those normal people thought they could stop him.
“Who are you people?”
Floyd’s expression changed as he explained, “Master, they are from the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance! They’re in charge of the lab that specializes in advanced technology for Erudia. They’re the strongest in Erudia! They just revealed themselves after what happened.”
He paused. “This is Wynona from the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance. The youngest female scientist in Erudia. She and her team just develop a terrifying superweapon!”
Then, Floyd got closer to Levi and whispered into his ears, “She’s not just an average Jane. She’s actually very capable.”
Hearing that, Levi froze for an instance.
Ever since Jared presented the God of Slaughter, people no longer underestimated the regular people.
Levi included.
These average joes had the potential to catch all of them by surprise, after all.
For example, the person behind the Ruling Union’s gigantic army of martial artists might even be a normal guy.
All he needed to do was to utter one word or make a plan, and tens of thousands of martial artists would die, just like that.
In Wynona’s opinion, most martial artists were reckless and uneducated.
That was why she did not have a good impression of Levi.
“We’re here to inform you that, from now onwards, Jared Schmidt is officially under the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance’s custody!” Wynona declared in a boastful tone.
Floyd and the others kept quiet.
It was clear that they were informed about it.
Jared, who was on the floor, curled his lips and looked at Levi, taunting him.
“Even if you brought me to Erudia, you still can’t kill me!” Jared said mockingly.
“If you have no more questions, we’ll be taking him away then. The paperwork is all done,” Wynona said before the men behind her approached Jared.
“Give me one good reason!” Levi exclaimed as Wynona was about to leave with Jared.
Everyone looked at him.
“I’m the one that brought him back from Zarain! His life is mine! I could have killed him ages ago! But I chose to bring him back here so he may pay for his sins on Erudian soil!” Levi continued.
What he said stunned Wynona for a second. “Indeed, you are the hero of Erudia. I admire you for that! But please have the wisdom to consider the grander scheme of things!”
“What is there to consider?” Levi asked.
“It is true that Jared is guilty beyond imaginable, that he deserves nothing less than the death penalty! But he is the greatest genius of all time! Ending his life would be such a waste! I think it’s much more beneficial if we make use of his intelligence for the betterment of Erudia!”
She paused to take a deep breath. “Besides, I trust that Jared is a man that knows repentance. He’ll understand where he did wrong and serve Erudia dutifully!”
As soon as Wynona finished, Jared immediately chimed in. “That’s right! I deeply regret everything that I did. All I want now is a chance to seek forgiveness. I want to serve the mighty Erudia. I’ll share everything I know with you all… “
To everyone there, it looked like Jared was sincerely admitting to his faults and was looking for a way to repent.
However, Levi knew that bastard all too well.
He’s merely trying to save his skin!
“So, do you have any more questions?” Wynona asked.
Levi shook his head. “No. I’m just going to kill him!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1752
Levi’s tone was extraordinarily calm.
Everyone there knew that he was going to kill Jared.
Even Jared himself understood that.
“Save me!” he pleaded.
“I know I was wrong! I’ll do everything I can to make up for all the sins I’ve committed!” Jared quickly hid behind Wynona before she stretched out her arms to block Levi’s advance.
“If you want to kill him, kill me first!” Wynona declared and closed her eyes.
Her whole body was trembling as she waited.
“Calm down! Jared Schmidt is too valuable for you to just kill him!”
“Why don’t you let us utilize his worth first? We’ll bring him to you once we are done with him!”
“Please don’t do this.”
……
Everyone there was panicking. They were scared that Levi might actually do it.
That was how valuable Jared was.
No matter how grave the sins he committed, a lot of people still did not want to see him dead.
They wanted to see him shine and utilize his fullest potential.
At that moment, everyone held their breath, waiting to see if Levi would slap Wynona.
Nevertheless, Levi did not do that.
So, Wynona opened her eyes in fear and looked timidly at Levi.
“Are you sure you want to take him away?” Levi asked in a cold manner.
“I’m sure!”
“Are you really hoping to see him serve Erudia with his talent? This man is a sly fox. It will be dangerous with him around! It will be disastrous once he gets his schemes in motion, do you guys understand?” Levi reminded them.
Floyd and the lot gulped nervously.
Jared Schmidt’s a genius. He’s someone who developed God of Slaughter! How scary is that? He’s like a walking nuclear warhead at this point!
“As long as he joins the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance, we’ll take responsibility for whatever happens! Besides, I already saw that he seeks repentance! He’ll definitely turn over a new leaf! Danger is out of the question!” The others guaranteed.
Wynona on the other hand wanted to say something but decided to swallow her words.
It looked like she agreed with what Levi said.
“Alright, take him and go. Don’t let me see him again, or I’ll kill you! Don’t turn to me if anything happened to you guys!” Levi said.
He did not really care.
I brought him back from Zarain, for god’s sake. I could kill him whenever I want! If these people don’t want to listen, so be it. It’s none of my business.
With that, Jared smiled and shot Levi a smug look before leaving with the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance.
Just you wait and see, Levi.
That said, Wynona was a little worried, so she suggested that they keep an eye on Jared at all times and limit everything he did.
There’s a chance he might tinker with some things in secret and cause trouble.
“You’re overcomplicating things, Miss Wilcox. Mr. Schmidt has definitely changed for the better! I can see it! Besides, we’re his saviors! We’re providing for him, why would he harm us?”
……
The others disagreed with Wynona.
Hence, Wynona did not bring it up again.
Meanwhile, Jared was wearing a maniacal grin on his face in the car.
“Where do you want to go next, Master?” Floyd asked.
“To Evie and Zoey of course!” Levi smiled.
“They are still in Wildefield! Avery is trying to instruct Evie, even though he’s only a Rank Five!” Floyd said leisurely.
The Levi right now could kill a Rank Seven in a heartbeat! How can Avery even compare with him?
With that, Levi headed straight for his wife and daughter, but something unexpected came up.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1753
The Eragons were going to eliminate everyone that once joined the Ruling Union.
Everything was decided a long time ago but was postponed because of what Levi did at Zarain.
Now that things had settled down, they resumed the plan.
And their targets included those men who bowed down to Levi at Oakland City.
That said, Levi knew nothing about it as he was on his way to Wildefield.
On the way there, Levi could that there were more fighters.
No matter how good they were at hiding it, Levi could still sense their extraordinary presence.
In Levi’s eyes, they were all shining brilliantly, so it was easy to identify.
Soon enough, he arrived at Wildefield.
At Wildefield, they were still training Zoey and Forlevia as though they were the future of Wildefield, not knowing that Levi had already slain several Rank Seven fighters at that point.
When Levi arrived, no one stopped him. They just let him in.
“The Governor said that you’ve not seen Evie in a long while, so you guys stay for a little longer!”
Levi shook his head. “That won’t be necessary. I’m here to take them away!”
“Huh? What do you mean?” The guard looked at him, feeling puzzled.
“Tell Avery that I’m taking them back with me! He’s too weak, so I’m taking Evie back! You guys can only teach her the basics at most!”
As soon as Levi said that, those men’s expressions darkened, and immediately went to report what they heard.
Soon enough, the whole of Wildefield surrounded Levi.
Then, Avery appeared with Zoey and Forlevia.
Both of them were ecstatic to see him since they did not hear from him after he went into battle.
However, Avery stopped them from approaching him.
“Hold your horses! I need to talk to him!”
Avery turned towards Levi and asked, “Are you planning to leave with them?”
“That’s right! Wildefield is still just a small place, after all. You’re too weak to qualify as Evie’s trainer!”
What he said infuriated everyone in Wildefield and some people riled up.
Their faces were all red, wanting to teach Levi a lesson.
Avery and a few of the elders were also agitated by what Levi said.
Wildefield’s a small place? What a joke! Too weak? I’m Avery Fairclough, a Rank Five master fighter!
Meanwhile, Levi ignored his anger and continued, “But of course, I’m a grateful person! You people have poured your heart and soul into taking care of Evie, after all. So, I, Levi Garrison, will owe you one favor! If you’re ever in any trouble, you can look for me to provide assistance once!”
Anyone would go mad if they found out about Levi’s promise to Wildefield since his promise was worth a whole lot.
He had slain more than tens of thousands of Rank Five fighters at that point, so a favor from him could result in something unimaginable.
Nevertheless, Levi’s promise was nothing in the eyes of the people at Wildefield.
“Leave! Why would we ever look for you if we’re in need?”
“Is there something wrong with you?”
……
The whole Wildefield was mad with rage after hearing what Levi said.
“I’ll be leaving with them now! And this means that we no longer have any affiliation with Wildefield! However, my promise will always be in effect!”
As soon as Levi finished, Avery could no longer hold it in.
“Let’s see how you plan to take them away!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1754
“That’s right! Don’t even think about taking anyone out of here! You have no place to make decisions here in Wildefield.”
Everyone in Wildefield was both hardheaded and stubborn.
Why would they fear Levi when they had plenty more strong people?
Levi just chuckled.
He had killed off plenty of small fry like the ones in Wildefield.
They were as weak as any regular human being.
They were so weak that Levi could smash them as if they were ants.
“Let’s go, Evie. We’re going home.”
Levi picked Forlevia up and was about to leave with Zoey and Mia.
“Move aside! I want to see if he actually dares to step out of Wildefield,” Avery bellowed.
The crowd parted like the Red Sea at the sound of Avery’s command.
Levi continued walking forward with the three people behind him in tow.
“If any of you dare to step out of this door, then you won’t ever be allowed back in Wildefield!” Avery yelled angrily.
He knew Zoey and the others didn’t actually want to leave.
After all, it was a brilliant opportunity that he believed no one could turn down.
However, Levi didn’t even give the others a chance to look back and walked straight out.
Avery and the rest were stunned at the sight of their retreating backs.
They really left? Just like that?
“What do we do now, Governor?” the others asked.
“If Forlevia leaves Wildefield, we’re done for!”
“If she gets picked up by some other group, we’ll be ruined.”
Avery’s face was twisted as if he had just eaten a lump of garbage. “Go after them! Go after them and bring them back here or else!”
He was finally determined to get Forlevia back.
Just as the Wildefield fighters were about to go after Forlecia, they heard a huge Boom!
A number of shadows suddenly landed on the city walls from above. Clearly enough, Floyd had arrived.
The Wildefield citizens were taken aback at the sight of Floyd and his powerful aura.
Avery said in surprise, “Are you Floyd?”
Who wouldn’t know Floyd? He had truly made a name for himself during the war against the Ruling Union.
“How dare you? Do you know whose daughter you’re trying to take?” Floyd barked coldly.
“What? What’s that supposed to mean?” Avery felt a sense of dread slowly enveloping him.
“Do you know who actually defeated the Ruling Union?”
“Eragon may have fought the last leg of the war, but the raiders truly did the lion’s share of the work,” Avery answered.
“Have you all heard about the fighter from Erudia who went to Zarain to bring Jared back and also killed a bunch of Rank Sevens?”
“Of course! I would never have imagined killing so many Rank Sevens in one go!” Avery inhaled sharply.
Proudly, Floyd declared, “Well, I’ll be the one to tell you that the person who just confronted you was the one who accomplished all of that! That was my master, Levi Garrison!”
The moment Floyd’s shocking statement left his mouth, the whole of Wildefield fell into stark silence.
They were all staring at Floyd in shock.
So the warrior who did all those amazing things was Forlevia’s father all along?
That plain guy?
That’s why he was so comfortable with bashing them as weak and looking down upon them.
In front of someone who had killed so many Rank Sevens, Wildefield must have been weaker than ants.
Levi was right. He had only sent Forlevia here to learn the basics.
Thump!
Avery instantly fell to his knees.
The others were sweating profusely.
What a close call!
To think that we even thought of killing him…where did we even get that idea from?
As they stepped out of Wildefield, Zoey started to voice her concerns. “They won’t chase after us, will they?”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1755
Levi was about to speak when a crowd suddenly started running toward them.
Avery was at the head of them all.
He was leading the huge crowd of people as they frantically ran toward Levi.
He frowned and started to doubt Floyd’s capabilities. Why couldn’t he deal with even this crowd of people?
Zoey and the others were terrified at the sight of the crowd thundering toward them.
The moment the girls were about to scream, Avery and the others yelled first.
They stared at Levi as if he were a ghost.
Avery immediately ran in the other direction as the people behind him followed tight on his heels.
They weren’t here to chase after Levi after all. They were actually heading to the old Governor’s grave to check something.
They wanted to double check who truly was the one who saved Forlevia from the Shadow Order.
“How strange. Weren’t they chasing after us?” Zoey asked in suspicion.
Avery immediately commanded the others to open up the grave once they arrived.
The moment they saw the dried-up corpse in the grave, everyone came to the same realization.
There was no ‘old Governor’!
He had died a long time ago.
It was Levi who saved Forlevia, and he had also been the one who killed the Shadow Order.
He had already said it in the beginning, but no one believed him.
They had all assumed that the old Governor was the true hero.
“That’s right, didn’t Mr. Garrison say he helped us once before?” Avery asked.
“Ah, that’s right!”
“We truly must appreciate that one chance!”
“So she was his daughter after all. No wonder she was so talented!”
……
Levi brought the three of them back to North Hampton.
Grandpa and Grandma were overjoyed upon seeing Forlevia.
However, Aaron wasn’t pleased with the fact that Forlevia had cut ties with Wildefield.
“It’s okay. Who cares? We’d much prefer to see Evie every day now rather than leaving her in Wildefield!”
Caitlyn and Emma hugged Forlevia tightly.
To regular people. being together with family was the most important thing.
After everything that had happened earlier, they had gotten used to parting. However, that didn’t stop them from missing each other dearly.
The Lopez and Black families had experienced more loss than anyone else.
The three older people had missed Forlevia terribly.
That’s why they didn’t say anything even though Levi had brought Forlevia back.
“What? They have all left for Zarain?”
Zoey was taken aback by the news.
Levi just smiled helplessly.
He saw them in Zarain with his own eyes.
“By the way, we just got wind of Zarain capturing a lot of refugees from Erudia.”
“Serves them right! They shouldn’t have gone there in the first place!” Aaron spat.
Clearly, the news of them being captured had spread past the whole world.
“Oh dear. Have things gotten that bad?” Zoey asked.
“Of course! It’s all thanks to that mysterious warrior who went into Zarain alone to bring Jared and the two men back! That was what angered Zarain to do such a thing,” Aaron explained.
“I also heard that the mysterious warrior had been sent by Eragon. As expected, Erudia will truly be safe under a force as powerful as Eragon.”
–
Suddenly, a throng of footsteps came from outside their door.
Harry and the other members of the Lopez family had arrived.
The moment they walked in, they made a beeline for Levi.
“What happened?” Zoey asked.
“It’s all because of those disrespectful twats! They got chased out of Zarain and have zero money to their name. They don’t even have their identification anymore! They’ve been thrown into the middle of nowhere!”
“We only came here to ask Levi to bring them back and give them their identities back.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1756
The others were surprised at the Lopezs’ request.
So they had come to ask Levi to bring the others back and also return their names as a citizen of Erudia.
No matter how much the older family members scolded them, or how much they had betrayed their ancestors.
After all, how could they bear to let their children suffer out in the unknown?
Despite that, it was still hard to save them.
For one, at such a crucial time, none of them were supposed to leave Erudia.
Apart from that, Henry and Fabian didn’t have any identification. They couldn’t enter Erudia either way.
Not even martial artists were exempted to this rule.
After Eragon had emerged and defeated the Ruling Union, martial artists could no longer do whatever they wanted.
They had to listen to the Dragonites.
So even though they badly wanted to bring Henry and Fabian back, they couldn’t do anything about it.
That was when they heard that Levi had returned and rushed to see him.
To someone like Levi, getting Henry and Fabian back as well as returning their identification was just a matter of putting in some words.
It was as easy as lifting a finger for him.
“Yes, they have betrayed Erudia and their ancestors, and deserve to be punished for that. However, we can’t just watch them die in a godforsaken unfamiliar land.”
“We’ve decided to bring them back. Who cares if we get scolded and ridiculed for it?”
“Levi, we came here to ask you to get them back.”
“That’s right! You only need to put in one word for them to come back and restore their identities.”
……
It was the first time Cora and the others had ever been even remotely polite to Levi.
“Have they officially estranged themselves from the country?” Levi asked.
“Yes! Those unfilial kids thought Erudia was done for and ran off without even listening to us!” Meredith said through her tears.
Levi chuckled. “They’re all adults now, aren’t they?”
“Yes, they are. What’s wrong?” Harry replied without thinking.
“Since they’re all adults now, they should take responsibility for their actions. I’m sure they didn’t suddenly decide to betray the country in the spur of the moment. After leaving Erudia, everything they do is purely up to them,” Levi said seriously.
“What?”
“W-what’s that supposed to mean?”
The Lopez family members stared at him, then they realized what he meant.
“What I mean is that I’m not going. Since they decided to leave Erudia, they should never come back. In fact, I’m going to let everybody know that no one who left Erudia is allowed to come back, no matter what.”
Levi was firm in his decision, causing everyone in the room to gape in shock.
“How dare you?” Cora yelled.
“Why wouldn’t I?” Levi said with a cold chuckle.
“They left, didn’t they? They’re no longer Erudians, so there’s no need for me to go bring them back.”
–
“What are you saying? They are still family! You can’t just get your revenge now because you had spats with Logan in the past,” Meredith said.
“That’s right! We’re still family! How could you bear to see them die in the middle of nowhere?”
“Who do you think you are? No matter how powerful you are now, you still can’t leave your family behind like that.”
All of the Lopez family members were chattering and arguing.
Even Emma and Caitlyn piped up, “Levi, you should just help them out. It’s an easy errand for you after all. Just look at how worried they are.”
Cora suddenly thought of asking Zoey to persuade Levi.
However, Zoey stood firm. “I’m with Levi on whatever he says!”
“I’m not going to care about them. They can die for all I care.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1757
Levi was determined and unshaken. He wasn’t going to give anyone a chance to persuade him.
He couldn’t care less about their deaths.
On top of that, he even released a statement announcing that every single person who had left Erudia was banned from coming back. Furthermore, they would not even have the chance to regain their status as an Erudian.
Levi announced it personally and emphasized that no one was exempt from this rule.
This announcement was frowned upon by many.
As of today, Erudia had grown and was now one of the strongest countries in the world.
Whatmore, a lot of people who had moved out and were living overseas weren’t having a great time, either.
After all, the important connections they had were in Erudia, not forgetting the job opportunities.
Those who were overseas could only live off of savings, but that would finish one day.
To make things worse, they had also found out that the other countries were just taking advantage of them and didn’t truly welcome them as a citizen.
They would get chased out the moment they lost their worth.
Zarain’s recent procedures had truly wakened up a lot of people.
Erudia was the best place to be, after all.
Thus, they had to return to Erudia as soon as possible.
That was why a lot of people who had once left Erudia were suddenly clamoring to come back.
Some superstars and millionaires had even bought their tickets for the flight back to Erudia.
That explained why so many people were shocked at Levi’s sudden announcement.
The elders could only curse at him for being so cold-blooded, but they couldn’t do anything.
Levi’s new mandate started going into action all across the country.
However, a lot of people were fighting against the mandate.
Some people were using their power and position to force their way in, which caused a lot of conflict.
The next day, Levi got a call from Floyd about something bad happening.
A cruise weighing almost a million tons was about to arrive at South Hampton’s largest port.
All the passengers on the cruise were superstars, influencers and millionaires who had once fled Erudia.
Now that Erudia was already safe, they were fighting to come back.
However, Levi’s announcement had made that impossible for them.
That was why some of the celebrities and millionaires from Keerea and Raysonia had ganged up together to return to Erudia.
They had even booked a cruise and brought thousands of people along with them.
In their eyes, everyone on the cruise was intellectuals and elite.
To them, they would be of worth no matter where they went.
That was why they believed that Erudia wouldn’t turn them down.
Either way, everyone on the cruise had some form of power and a high position in society.
Who would dare stop them?
The worst part was that the celebrities and influencers who were on the cruise had announced the news of their return and even invited their fans to come and greet them.
More than hundreds of influencers and celebrities released the news at the same time, causing unrest among all their fans.
The cruise was scheduled to arrive at 12 noon, but the fans of those celebrities and influencers onboard reached the port at 5 a.m. and started fighting for the best place to see their beloved idols.
The most harrowing problem at hand was that the fans wouldn’t stop coming.
According to Floyd’s report, there were already about fifty thousand fans crowded inside the port and there were more coming.
Floyd had to reach out to Levi for help since he had no other solution.
The moment Levi heard the news, his expression darkened.
I didn’t expect those influencers and celebrities to be so wily… how could they use their fans this way?
There was almost no way to settle them. After all, it wasn’t as if Levi could send people to hit the fans or chase them away by force.
That would be way too extreme.
That was why Floyd couldn’t do anything even though he was a Supreme class.
The fans only became more volatile as their numbers grew.
“Just wait for me to come and settle this myself.”
Levi immediately left for South Hampton.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1758
“What a poor bunch of fans. They have no idea they’re just being used,” Levi muttered to himself as he looked at the crowds of fans below the helicopter.
What a bunch of simpletons.
“They’re so wrong for using their fans against us! They know that if we do anything to get rid of them, it’ll affect us terribly,” Floyd said urgently after seeing Levi.
Floyd was also extremely smart, but he was helpless when it came to things like this.
It wasn’t like he could beat them up.
There were almost a hundred thousand fans filling up the port by the time Levi arrived.
Almost every inch of the port was filled with eager fans.
The moment Levi arrived, so did the cruise carrying the celebrities and influencers.
The passengers on the cruise looked down upon the port as they arrived.
The moment their eyes landed upon the crowds of fans, they smiled knowingly.
Xion and Sadie, who were leading the pack of celebrities, were even more ecstatic.
“See? Our plan worked, right?”
The idea for their fans to come and greet them had been Xion and Sadie’s idea.
The more fans arrived, the less Erudia could penalize them.
That was why they made sure all their fans knew they were returning before they arrived.
They had even invited a bunch of internationally recognized reporters to join them on the cruise.
That way, even if Erudia dared to chase them out, the reporters would instantly make news of it.
Indeed, they really were pretty smart.
They had prepared all of this just so Erudia couldn’t kick them out.
After everything that they had planned, Erudia could only allow them to enter and return their identities as citizens of Erudia.
They could continue to earn money off Erudia and enjoy their high positions in society.
With all this, they could forget about ever having left Erudia.
Bang!
The cruise finally stopped against the port.
The fans started to cheer like crazy.
How could they not cheer at the sight of all their idols and celebrities in front of them?
The fans all tried to rush forward, but luckily Floyd had the foresight to make sure there were people blocking them from running into the port.
Still, that was all they could do—block them.
If anything happened, these fans might lose control.
There was no way they could be stopped if it came to that.
“Xion!”
“Sadie!”
“Welcome back!”
“Welcome! You’re finally back!”
“Erudia’s doors will always be open for you! Always!”
The fans started yelling and cheering in a frenzy. It began to look as if they would bite the heads off of anyone who tried to stop their idols from entering the country.
It was a rather impressive sight to see all hundred thousand fans cheering at the same time.
Floyd and the others had no way of doing anything apart from blocking the fans from mobbing their idols.
Things were much worse than they had imagined.
If they only began to tell them “no”, these fans could very well gobble them up.
They would also be negatively impacted by the news of this getting out.
After stopping at the port, Xion and the other celebrities allowed the reporters to get off the cruise first.
“This is Bayview’s number one tabloid and media company!”
“We are Adrune’s largest media and news company!”
The reporters started introducing themselves the moment they got off the cruise and started setting up their equipment so they could stream everything live.
“What…”
Floyd felt his head begin to throb at the ridiculous sight.
It looked like they wouldn’t even have the chance to complete a proper blockade unless they got rid of all those reporters.
But that just wasn’t plausible.
Things had truly gotten out of hand.
Floyd clenched his fists tightly. “This isn’t a good situation for us. We don’t even have a solution for it right now.”
Right then, Xion and the other celebrities started getting off the cruise.
“Who said you could come down here? Screw off back to where you belong!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1759
The voice that bellowed out was almost as loud as a landmine going off.
Everyone in the port was taken aback by the sheer volume and power of the shout.
The ‘elites’ who had just stepped off the cruise were especially stunned as they stared off into the distance.
Levi slowly walked into view.
It was his yell that had stopped every single person in place.
It had shocked even Floyd and the others.
To Floyd and the rest, they had to take care of things carefully and gently.
If they could use words to fix things, then they wouldn’t have to resort to using force.
After all, the more forceful one was, the more likely things were to escalate.
It could even be said that to them, using force to settle such a situation was the most stupid thing one could do.
However, the moment that thought crossed their minds, Levi had yelled with the force of a thunderstrike.
Floyd and the others were just as surprised.
What is he going to do?
Is he going to get rid of them by force?
About thirty seconds passed by before everyone finally came back to their senses.
“W-what did you just say?” Sadie stammered.
“I told you all to screw off back to where you came from! Don’t even think about landing any of your dirty paws on Erudian land. Leave now!” Levi bellowed clearly.
His voice was loud enough to rival an earthquake. The people stepping off the cruise flinched in fear, lifting their feet off the ground and back on the stairs.
Xion and the others had truly been taken aback by Levi’s sheer intensity.
They no longer dared to make even a peep.
The fans behind Levi, however, were not happy.
They were unhappy after seeing how someone treated their idols that way.
“What did you just say? Did you just ask them to screw off? How dare you?”
“They’re all elites! It will be Erudia’s greatest loss if you refuse to let them in !”
“You all had better watch your move. If you dare put a finger on them, we won’t stop here!”
“That’s right, we won’t let it go that easily!”
“We won’t let you!”
The fans were starting to protest against Levi, and the situation was starting to go out of control again.
The reporters started frantically jotting down and recording everything that was going on.
Naturally, they would be publishing these stories after embellishing them with glorified facts and details that had been blown out of proportion.
Xion and the others smiled widely at the flurry of news reporting.
No matter how powerful Levi and Floyd’s side was, these celebrities had their fans behind them.
He looked at Levi smugly. “That’s right! My precious fans are right. Not letting us in would be a big loss to Erudia! You’d better get your facts straight and let us back in. That’s what you really should be doing!”
Sadie piped up, “Yeah! We’re priceless. I have 17 million fans! Who are you to tell us to screw off?”
“I agree! I have a net worth of three billion. Does that sound worthless to you? Can you imagine the ways that money could be used?”
“Exactly! I own over a hundred factories. My contribution to the economy would be endless!”
All of the so-called ‘elites’ started clamoring to prove themselves.
To be fair, a lot of what they were saying was true.
Despite that, they failed to mention the fact that they not only gave, but they also took.
Without Erudia, how would they have gained their fame, money or factories?
They were clearly coming back to leech off the country now that they couldn’t thrive overseas.
They made themselves sound so noble when they were truly the most selfish ones.
“I agree!”
“I will always support you! They won’t chase you out unless they walk over our dead bodies!”
“Yes! With us protecting you, no one will dare to get rid of you!”
The fans were touched by a simple dedication.
They were getting more pumped up just because of some mushy words from their idols.
The moment Levi stepped out to block them from entering the country, the fans started to form a barricade to stop him.
Everyone onboard the cruise started to smirk triumphantly at the sight of their fans’ efforts.
They looked down upon Levi haughtily.

“Welcome back! Welcome back!” the fans erupted in cheers.
Some fans had even broken free from the pack and had somehow pushed their way to the front to be the first to welcome their idols home.
Xion and the other celebrities started walking off the cruise.
As long as they entered Erudia, then getting their identity back would no longer be a problem.
They had already passed the hardest part!
The elites stepped onto Erudian land proudly as they stared mockingly at Levi.
Floyd and his men were starting to look annoyed.
Things had escalated to a level none of them wanted to see.
Now, there was no way to properly settle the situation.
All they could do was watch on.
The soft approach wasn’t working, and yet they couldn’t even attempt to try the hard way.
“Who said you all can step off?” Levi asked.
“What?”
Everyone’s eyes landed on Levi.
He walked toward the crowd and stopped right in front of them.
He stepped onto a line and barked coldly, “I dare any of you to try taking another step. If anyone crosses this line, I will be taking extreme measures.”
Floyd and the rest could tell that Levi was angry and were getting nervous.
“Master, won’t things get worse if you do this?” Floyd whispered.
“If anything happens, I’ll take all the blame for it,” Levi said determinedly.
“Who are you? How dare you act so arrogantly?” The fans were starting to make a fuss again.
Xion chuckled. “I would love to see what you would do if I crossed the line.”
He stared at Levi as he took two big steps over the line Levi was stepping on.
“Oh, dear! Looks like I’ve crossed your line. What are you going to do about it?” Xion said with a smug smirk.
Levi frowned as he stared at Xion.
Boom!
The very next second, Levi had kicked Xion out over the port.
He practically flew before crashing heavily against the deck of the cruise.
Everyone was stunned into silence once again.
No one had expected him to actually get violent!
“Oh, no. This isn’t looking good,” Floyd sighed.
“Have you gone insane? How dare you kick him like that?”
“Who the hell are you to do such a thing?”
Once the crowd finally realized what had happened, they started yelling at Levi.
“My name is Levi, and I am the one who made that rule,” Levi announced.
“That doesn’t give you the right to beat someone up! He has twenty million fans! How dare you?”
“Yeah, how dare you? Apologize immediately!”
Everyone was yelling angrily.
Levi just smiled mildly and shook out his fist. “What did you say? I’ll show you what’s my right.”
With another loud boom, an invisible force pushed the fans away.
Without even realizing what had happened, the fans were already gathered behind Levi.
With another wave of his hand, Levi built an invisible wall of air between the fans and the cruise.
They started getting agitated and tried to bash their way through the wall.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
All of them struck heavily against the wall to no avail.
Amidst their anger, the crowd was also surprised.
No matter what they did, the wall in front of them remained unbroken.
Levi had singlehandedly stopped a hundred thousand fans from causing further trouble.
Sadie and the other ‘elites’ could only watch in shock.
They had pictured many scenarios happening, but they hadn’t expected Levi to be this powerful.
Levi watched them with a cold smirk as he said, “Forget about entering Erudia. Just go back to where your sorry as*es came from. Do you all really think you have contributed that much? If you don’t leave now, I’ll force you all to leave myself.”
