Ch. 1811..1820
The Return of God of War Chapter 1811
Nothing would hold Jared back once he left the training base.
Since nobody could stop him, he could do what he wanted. He would become Erudia’s disaster!
Should that happen, he might even be the death of Erudia!
Jared roared, “No one can stop me, not even you, Levi! I’m invincible!”
Indeed, the destructive power he possessed would make him undefeatable!
The senior management in Gamma Tech instantly regretted their action of bringing this traitor back.
They should have heeded Levi’s warning and let Levi finish Jared off.
Since they believed Jared had turned over a new leaf, they chose not to monitor him closely.
They even permitted him to wield his power in the training base.
Wynona had also warned them about Jared, but they reprimanded her instead.
Gamma Tech could have avoided this had they listened to Levi in the first place.
But they were too egoistic to admit their mistake.
Wynona turned around to look at Keanu. She then recalled the promise he made. Yesterday, he said he would be responsible if anything went south. Let’s see if he’ll keep his promise!
After putting on a set of lightweight armor that allowed him to control his power, Jared traveled several miles in the blink of an eye and stood in front of Wynona and the rest.
Now that his body had become the carrier of pure energy, he could travel at the speed of light. His body had become so light that he could even take flight.
To him, traveling several miles within seconds was a piece of cake.
Upon seeing a godlike figure standing in front of them, all the staff members outside the laboratory started screaming and running helter-skelter.
“Shut up!”
Jared threw a punch in the air, releasing a wave of transparent energy that passed through the body of an escapee.
Wham!
He then threw another punch in the direction of the other escapees that had run a hundred feet away, turning them into dust.
The power he demonstrated proved that he could kill anyone from a distance. Everyone who witnessed that immediately believed Jared was the devil himself!
Jared began a massacre and killed anyone who ran away.
“From now on, I’ll kill anyone who tries to escape the training base!” Jared warned.
His voice reverberated all over the training base, sending chills down everyone’s spine.
Everything in Gamma Tech’s training base was under Jared’s control in a snap of the fingers.
The senior management of Gamma Tech was utterly flabbergasted.
They regretted their action of not killing Jared when they could.
Now, every single one of them had become his prisoner. Not only did he have absolute control over the training base, but he could also kill anyone he wished!
Upon returning to Lab Number One, he approached Wynona.
Intimidated by the man’s presence, she staggered backward.
Before this, Jared had already been temperamental all the time and behaved like a lunatic.
Now that his body had turned into an embodiment of energy, he must have lost his humanity.
Wynona was afraid that he might finish her off.
“You like to keep an eye on me, right? But what could you do? Those idiots don’t even listen to you! Levi is right. This place is full of idiots!” Jared sneered.
Even the smart ones here might not have a high EQ!
Jared raised his voice. “From now on, all of you have to obey my command!”
Wynona stood up and defied him. “I’m afraid of death, but if you want me to take your orders, over my dead body!”
“Do you think I wouldn’t kill you?” Jared gradually lifted his right hand.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1812
Wynona kept her eyes shut, waiting for death to claim her. Yet, she could not stop her body from trembling.
Jared let out of a cold snort. “You think I’ll grant you an easy death? Not a chance!”
“Weren’t you in contact with Levi? Why don’t you call him to come and stop me?” he asked.
“Oh, I forgot,” he continued with a sarcastic smirk. “Levi is the arch-enemy of Erudia now. Everyone sees him as the big demon and wants to kill him. He can’t even protect himself anymore!”
Wynona gave him a murderous stare. “You’re more of a demon than he’ll ever be! You’re the big demon!”
She finally understood that evil came from the heart. It had nothing to do with how much of a threat a person was based on the power he or she possessed.
Levi and Jared were the best living proof of the logic!
Jared instantly carried a massacre the moment he obtained such destructive power. It was not the case for Levi.
At least based on Wynona’s investigation, Levi was someone who would go all out to defend Erudia and its citizens!
Keanu, who was standing beside Wynona, immediately stopped her. “What are you talking about? How could you compare Mr. Schmidt with Levi? Mr. Schmidt is smart and invincible, and he’s Erudia’s future! Don’t you dare compare him to that demon!”
Wynona took a sidelong glance at Keanu. What an opportunist. Did he forget the promise he made yesterday?
All of a sudden, Jared burst into laughter.
Keanu could not help but start to tremble.
Jared turned to him and asked, “Do you know what kind of person I hate the most?”
“I-I have no idea!” Keanu’s mind went blank.
“I hate people like Levi, and I hate people like you too!”
Upon saying that, Jared lay his hand on Keanu’s skull.
His palm emitted a wave of energy that penetrated Keanu’s head, causing the latter to bellow in excruciating pain.
Keanu’s body began to disappear, and within seconds, he vanished into thin air, leaving nothing behind.
Those who witnessed were struck dumb. What a vicious man!
“And you.” Jared then turned to Wynona. “I’ll keep you alive so that you can watch how I rise to the top!”
“Levi is a demon, right? Very well, I’ll mark him as my next target. Once I get rid of him, the Erudians will hail me as their hero! From then on, no one can stop me from becoming the number one on the Gem List!” Jared laughed maniacally.
“Master, I’m sure The Cardinal Hall would be pleased to know that you plan to go after Levi!” Suddenly, a few of Jared’s followers emerged from a dark corner.
Wynona trembled in anger. The real demon is now going after the hero in the name of justice? How ironic!
“What’s the situation now?” Jared asked.
“Someone captured Levi’s daughter and mother, and Zoey is with The Cardinal Hall now!” one of his men said.
A corner of Jared’s mouth quirked up upon hearing that. Zoey, Zoey. Why do I feel like I don’t have any feelings for you anymore? But don’t you worry, I’ll still make you mine!
Though his body had undergone alteration, Jared still retained his subconscious mind. Yet, he seemed to have lost all his feelings and emotions.
But it was clear that he already had a plan in mind. “I want you to take control of the entire Gamma Tech. Get them to work for me! Make sure to make full use of Lab Number One. I want them to be ready to work for me as soon as possible.”
With the return of his former troops, Jared had absolute control over the Gamma Tech training base now.
At this point, no one knew the most technically advanced training base had fallen into the hands of a demon.
“Next up, I’m going to hunt Levi and Zoey down!” Jared let out a mirthless laugh.
Despite knowing that another disaster was on its way, there was nothing Wynona could do, as they had locked her up.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1813
Usually engrossed with research, she barely had any friends, and Levi was the only name that came to mind.
It was more horrifying for her to find out that Jared not only had the power to kill, but he could also manipulate people’s thoughts.
When he left, he managed to control the mind of one key personnel in the Gamma Tech training base.
It was a terrifying revelation.
At the same time, Levi was trying to avoid being captured by different forces while tracking the mastermind.
There was no way he could let things be after knowing that someone was behind all the mess.
Those people had taken the opportunity to discredit him and intensify Erudia’s conflict with him.
The method used was easy. On the one hand, those people pretended to be followers of the Fiery Demon and often created trouble with the martial arts world in Erudia.
On the other hand, they also went on a mass killing spree and made it seem like Levi was responsible for it.
Regardless, Levi was confident that they would probably leave behind their traces by accident.
As long as he followed their path, he would likely uncover something.
Given so, it led him to the Tayhaven City in the South.
According to the news, a war occurred there recently, and of the many people who fought in it, Levi was supposedly one of them.
As such, Levi disguised himself when he arrived at the city.
In the ancient manual his mentor left behind for him, there was a record of Erudia’s oldest disguise technique, which did not take him long to master.
If he said nothing about his identity, no one would recognize him.
Tap tap tap…
A flurry of footsteps sounded, and several young men and women appeared.
They were mostly Rank Seven fighters.
From their appearances, they looked around twenty years old and were part of the martial arts world in Erudia.
Not only so, but Levi could also sense strong energy fluctuations, which meant that there was someone else secretly protecting them.
It did not take him more than a second to realize that they came from an ancient martial arts force who were probably here to take him down.
There was a high chance they had activated all their forces this time.
Soon, everyone gathered at the battlefield.
It was a mess, with blood splattered everywhere and piles of corpses lying around.
A few young men complained, “We came too late again!”
One of the men dressed in black scoffed, “What’s the point of killing a few criminals? We should target Levi instead!”
He was Landon, who was ranked sixteenth on the Stone list.
“You want to kill Levi? How is that possible? He is sixth on the Gem List! It is wishful thinking for you to believe that we could kill him.”
A sharp voice from a lady sounded shortly after.
She was in a yellow dress with an arrogant expression on her face.
On the Stone List, she was ranked thirteenth, and her name was Yasmin.
“It’s not possible unless you are one of the top five fighters in the Stone List!” another woman chimed in.
This woman was in a white dress, and she looked like an unbelievably beautiful fairy.
Her name was Josephine, who took seventh place in the Stone List.
Although she was only eighteen years old, she was already more impressive than the majority of the Rank Seven fighters.
They were Erudia’s talents and the future of the martial arts world.
Upon hearing that, everyone turned their attention to another young man.
This man was in a green suit, and with his hands behind his back, he looked calm.
They all looked at him in awe and with envy.
He was Trenton, number five on the Stone List.
Those highly ranked on the Stone List had powers comparable to those on the Gem List.
Therefore, in Trenton’s case, he was almost as skillful as Rank Eight fighters.
“Trenton is only nineteen years old this year, so it goes without a question that he will surpass Levi in ten years’ time.” The crowd was quick to discuss amongst themselves.
“Exactly! When Levi was nineteen years old, he was nowhere as good as Trenton!”
“Trenton is like a warrior on the Gem List.”
In response, Trenton suddenly spoke out. “I dare not compare myself to those on the Gem List.”
Despite saying so, he added a bold statement. “However, I can’t say the same for the top three on that list.”
As soon as those words left his mouth, the other warriors gasped.
Ever since The Manifest Court announced the Gem&Stone List, it had claimed to include warriors that were the strongest in the history of all rankings.
It was especially so with the addition of Forlevia.
The top three on the Stone List were so insanely skilled that they created talk among everyone.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1814
The evaluation conducted by The Manifest Court this time could be labeled as the best Stone List in history, especially with the top three names listed.
In the past, they had never recorded how insanely skillful the four of them were, including Forlevia.
They could not even predict what the future for Erudia would look like with their presence.
In any case, it was bright. The martial arts world in Erudia would surely prosper, and there was a high chance that they could beat hundreds of other countries.
Since Stone List’s number five, Trenton, and number seven, Josephine, were present, many people were eager to surround them.
After all, it was not an everyday occurrence to see warriors listed on the Stone List in public, especially for the highly ranked ones.
Josephine’s nickname was Goddess Foster because her strength and beauty stunned all.
Meanwhile, Trenton was known to be invincible too.
It was natural for them to become the focal point among the crowd.
Even so, Levi could not be bothered with them since he was here on a mission in the first place.
While everyone else was admiring and flattering the two warriors, Levi’s eyes fixated on the battlefield.
Unfortunately, it made him stand out from the rest, such that Josephine and Yasmin began to take notice of him.
“Josephine, that’s odd! That man doesn’t seem to know who we are! I can’t believe he didn’t even spare us a glance,” Yasmin commented.
They had attracted many people’s attention from a young age.
If you treated them with adoration, they tended to ignore you and took you for granted.
However, if you ignored them, they would typically notice it, as it would throw them off.
“Exactly! An average man would rush here to meet us if they found out that a warrior from the Stone List is here. Yet, he is sitting there, unbothered. That is abnormal!” Frowning, Josephine shrugged.
“Well, he doesn’t look like he is highly ranked. I’m guessing he is a nobody and had not heard of us before.”
The few of them assumed Levi was no one important and decided not to care about him.
At that moment, in a small town not far away, a group of people was plotting a plan.
A man reported, “I just received the news that the four warriors ranked on the Stone List have appeared in the area. It is the perfect opportunity!”
“What about it?” another man questioned.
“Coincidentally, some of the Fiery Demon’s followers have also arrived here recently, so perhaps, we could lure those followers over and use them to destroy the four Stone List warriors.”
The plan sounded like music to the other man’s ears. “Hahaha, that is a good plan. If we can get rid of those warriors, it will throw Erudia into more turmoil. It gives us more hope for the future!”
On the other hand, Trenton, Josephine, and the rest were unaware that they were targets of an evil scheme.
Miles away, the group of evil force had appeared.
It was a large army with many highly skilled fighters.
After being lured out, they did not hesitate to rush over where the Stone List warriors were.
Despite scrutinizing the place for an entire day, Levi still could not find any clues.
Sighing, he shook his head in disappointment.
Then, a gleam of light flashed before his eyes in the next second.
There are people coming!
He could feel a strong evil aura growing stronger.
The Fiery Demon’s followers are here.
They were one of the seventeen groups who previously hid deep in the forests.
In the past, they were Cyrus’ loyal followers.
However, the group of them immediately fled to hide in the mountains ever since his disappearance.
“Mr. Little and Goddess Foster, let me follow you to hunt down Levi.”
On the battlefield, warriors were eager to follow Trenton and the rest.
Landon and Yasmin were about to agree when they saw Josephine and Treston’s expressions changing.
“Oh no, a group of people are heading over.”
“Should we leave?” Josephine asked worriedly.
“I’m afraid it’s too late. We need to prepare to fight!”
Instantly, Trenton’s body shook, and he exuded a terrifying aura.
They heard footsteps coming within minutes.
The Fiery Demon’s followers began to surround and trap Trenton and the other warriors.
With no place to escape, the warriors in the middle looked around warily.
“I can’t believe we have caught a big fish here!”
The Fiery Demon followers gleefully bore their fangs and stared at the cornered warriors like their prey.
Looking cautious, Trenton warned the others. “Be careful. They are strong!”
He had picked up on how powerful their opponents were. From the looks of it, he estimated that there were at least a dozen Rank Eight fighters among them, which meant his team would unlikely stand a chance against them in a fight.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1815
Josephine’s expression darkened.
There were many Fiery Demon’s followers, of which many were highly skilled individuals.
It was not hard to tell from the aura they exuded.
Within the group of them, there were also three who belonged on the Gem List.
The majority of the rest were not in any of The Manifest Court’s lists.
Even so, with the few on the Gem List, the group was formidable.
Although the three Gem List warriors were not high up on that list, Trenton, Josephine, and the rest were still no match for them.
Besides, the Fiery Demon’s followers present were almost ten times the size of their team.
Trenton felt they were as good as dead at this point.
“How dare the group of you show yourselves?” Landon was first to speak.
Those who supported the Stone List warriors had disdain and disgust written across their faces.
In their heads, anyone loyal to Fiery Demon had to die without exception, and it would be best if they did in the cruelest way possible.
“Yes, all of you should scram and go back from where you came. Otherwise, you shall face death,” Trenton threatened.
Yet, his threat had little impact on his opponents. One of them scoffed, “All of you keep calling us monsters, but have you witnessed us killing in person? Have you seen us commit a heinous crime with your own eyes?”
The other followers were quick to jump in to agree. “Yes! You pride yourself on being upright, but you should ask yourself, how many people have you killed instead. Haven’t you done evil deeds too?”
Angered, one of the warriors on Treston’s side retorted, “Hmph, all of you are spouting nonsense! All of you have been monsters since birth. You are cruel, unfeeling, and addicted to murder. You are no different from a bunch of worms and more disgusting than rats in the sewers. Fiery Demon’s heir, Levi, is especially horrendous. He is a bastard! We can’t wait to get our hands on him and inflict pain on him.”
Levi had not seen this coming. He did not expect to hear his name during the argument between the two groups.
Glaring at the Fiery Demon’s followers, Yasmin growled. “Did you say that we haven’t seen your people kill? Well, isn’t Levi one of you? He murdered thousands of warriors in the Paradise Villa, and none of the warriors in Eastford survived. Yet, you dare say that you do not kill the innocent?”
“Exactly! Levi is shameless and a piece of trash! Lightning should strike a person as immoral as him. I hope he dies a terrible death or at least experiences a living hell,” Landon added.
However, their opponents only laughed. “Well, do you know who saved Erudia previously? Who was the one who raised Erudia’s prestige? Have you forgotten that it was his work?”
In disbelief, Trenton roared, “No matter what, he is still pure evil. He must be up to something no good whenever he did these things. There is no way I’ll believe that he did them out of goodwill.”
The rest were quick to back him up. “Of course! He is the Fiery Demon’s heir, so there is nothing good about him from the start. Those good deeds must be part of his scheme, and they were lies. Such people don’t deserve to live!”
“Yes! Levi should die, and so should the bunch of you. I’ll be praying for all of you to end up in hell.”
Trenton, Josephine, and the rest were cursing at their opponents.
Clenching his fists, Levi was fuming.
What is good, and what is evil? Both groups talk about killing like it was so easy anyway.
“You can insult us, but you shall not insult the Fiery Demon’s heir. We have faith in him, so if you criticize him, you shall die!”
“Kill without mercy!” The followers of Fiery Demon began chanting.
They were seeing red, and they slowly started to close in.
As such, Trenton and the rest panicked.
They did not expect their honest words to anger their enemies.
Right on the bat, more than a dozen people rushed out.
They were bodyguards hired to protect Trenton, and each one of them was skillful.
They snarled, “How dare monsters like you act so presumptuously? Don’t you know who they are?”
Gesturing to Trenton, one of them proudly stated, “He is Trenton, who ranks fifth on the Stone List and the descendant of the Little family.”
Turning to Landon, he continued, “He is-”
However, one of the Fiery Demon followers interrupted him. “Who cares? Let’s kill!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1816
The Fiery Demon followers immediately lunged for Trenton and his team.
Skilled members of the evil force especially targeted the four on the Stone List.
The remaining warriors in Trenton’s team were not as capable and had to face members of the evil force who were ten times better than they were.
Both parties did not show mercy during the battle.
It was a dark fight with casualties on both sides.
Levi could have stopped the dispute from the start, but he did not.
He would be out of his mind to try to save the people who wanted him dead.
Although Trenton and his other companions were on the Stone List, it only took minutes for them to be defeated.
Two warriors from the Gem List attacked Trenton, inflicted devastating injuries.
Similarly, Josephine ended up on the ground, spitting a mouthful of blood after another Gem List warrior went after her.
Plop!
The rest of their team also fell onto the ground like dead flies.
It was clear that they were no match for the Fiery Demon followers.
Those who survived were all gravely injured and on the ground, struggling to stay alive.
This time, the whole Erudia’s martial arts world had marked Levi as their public enemy.
Many ancient forces took the opportunity to send their talents out for the experience.
However, Trenton and his team were unlucky.
After they stepped out, they immediately met a formidable force.
They did not even have the chance to send a signal to their family for help.
Of course, they would not have crossed paths if not for someone pulling the strings in the back, resulting in the meeting between the two groups.
“Aren’t you are known as the righteous warriors? I thought you wanted to kill us, but clearly, you are incapable of it. What a joke!”
Humiliated by their opponents, Trenton and the rest wished they could find a hole to stick their heads into at that moment.
They felt ashamed.
As they helplessly lay on the ground, they looked around to assess the situation.
As expected, it did not look good.
Everyone was hurt and had collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain.
None of them were left standing, except for one.
Suddenly, everyone’s eyes fell on Levi, the last man standing.
Even the Fiery Demon’s followers were looking at him.
A thousand pairs of eyes were staring at him in confusion.
Why didn’t anyone notice him as though he was not even here?
Levi had used his powers to avoid being part of the fight between the two forces.
Unfortunately, he could not hide till the end.
“It’s him!”
Yasmin yelled enthusiastically with a glimmer of hope in her heart.
She prayed that he was a skilled warrior.
“I hope he is good. I already knew that he was out of the ordinary from the start,” Josephine whispered.
That man did not even bat his lids while everyone else was swooning over her when they first saw him.
There were only two possible reasons for that.
Either he did not know them, or his skills were out of the world, such that they were nobodies to him.
Trenton and the rest could only pray it was the second scenario.
“Haha, I can’t believe we missed out on one person! Take him down!”
The head of their enemies ordered coldly.
Instantly, numerous skilled warriors surrounded Levi.
“I have nothing to do with this situation, so it’s best if you don’t touch me with your filthy hands,” Levi warned.
“You asked for it!”
Six of the followers pounced for Levi at the same time.
Boom!
To their surprise, not only was Levi unscathed, but all six warriors attacking him ended up landing a few feet away. Levi’s clothes were not even crumpled.
It was alarming as the six were Rank Seven fighters.
“Let me do it!”
A young man from the evil force offered.
He was a talented follower of the Fiery Demon, and his strength could be comparable to Trenton’s.
“Scram!”
With that, Levi threw out his fist, and the man flew backward, landing hard on the ground.
His opponents did not even have the chance to counterattack.
At this point, everyone’s expression had changed drastically.
Woah, he is strong. That is a powerful punch. The top three warriors on the Gem List might not even be able to do that.
As such, Josephine, Trenton, and the rest felt stupefied, seeing how strong Levi was.
Immediately, they shouted, “Please help us out and get rid of these demons!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1817
The others began chanting, “Please lead the way and punish them!”
They seemed to have regained their confidence as they pleaded for Levi to help them.
On the other hand, the Fiery Demon’s followers became anxious as they did not expect to meet a warrior as mighty as him.
He seemed to be on the Gem List, and if so, they would be in deep trouble.
Within a short time, the Fiery Demon’s followers became more cautious.
They glared at Levi, who was dangerous and obviously a threat to them.
In the distance away, a secret group huddled together.
“Haha, it seems like everything is going according to our plan. The two groups have met, and the self-proclaimed righteous warriors have suffered grave injuries. I think it is only a matter of time for them to end up as bird food.”
They were rejoicing over the situation. “Haha, I hope such scenes happen in every corner of Erudia.”
“Exactly, we should hurry to get the news out. It is best to let The Cardinal Hall and Eragon know. They are nearby.”
Raysonia’s forces had laid out their plans.
They wanted to attract The Cardinal Hall’s attention at the last second and added more chaos to the situation.
On the battlefield, the Fiery Demon’s followers stood there, shaking.
Levi’s punch was indeed a terrifying sight.
The main issue was how he looked like an ordinary man with no powers. One could not sense any energy fluctuations from him.
It could only mean that he was a formidable warrior.
“Do you think he is within the top ten of the Gem List?”
Some were suspicious.
The top ten of the Gem List were on an entirely different playing field.
While three Fiery Demon followers were sitting on the Gem List, they were at the end of the ranking and would pose no threat to those above them.
With one look, the three of them were terrified.
On the other hand, Josephine and Yasmin began celebrating, given the turn of events.
“We have help! I thought we were going to die for sure.”
If not for their injuries, they would probably be jumping in joy.
The tables had turned.
Who knew that an elite fighter would appear at such a crucial moment?
“You must be a Gem List warrior and one that is high up the list. We hold no grudge against you, and we only want to deal with them. It has nothing to do with you, and you are free to leave!”
Having seen Levi’s powers, Fiery Demon’s followers started egging for Levi to leave.
However, this only made Landon and the rest worried.
Landon began to argue. “Please don’t be fooled by these evil beings! As martial artists, we should take the responsibility of eliminating these criminals!”
His team chimed in too. “Sir, please lend us a hand and eliminate this evil force!”
“Yes! If these monsters reunite with Levi, who knows what might happen?” They brought up Levi’s name again.
“Sir, you cannot let these people live! It’s best to get rid of them once and for all before you kill Levi too.”
The more they spoke, the more agitated they became. “You should severe Levi’s limbs and flush him down the toilet bowl. Then, we can send out a signal to the Fiery Demon’s followers that all of them will meet the same miserable fate as the Fiery Demon’s heir.”
“Exactly! Levi is the Fiery Demon’s heir, so if we punish him, the rest of the evil force would be stunned.”
They were especially harsh when they mentioned Levi.
In response, the Fiery Demon’s followers started to lose their temper.
It was alright to insult them, but they could not stand it when they talked about Levi.
“Whether or not you are on the Gem List, a member of The Cardinal Hall or Eragon, you shall not insult the Fiery Demon’s heir. Otherwise, we shall kill you!”
Even though the Fiery Demon’s followers knew that Levi’s powers were formidable, they would not back down.
The situation became more heated.
Landon and the rest protested, “All of you are courting death!”
“Sir, please do something! Kill these demons and kill the bastard, Levi! Please help us.” Everyone was looking at Levi with anticipation.
“We trust you, so please strike at them!”
Looking at how things were unfolding, a fight seemed inevitable to the Fiery Demon’s followers.
“I’m afraid I can’t fight them,” Levi suddenly uttered.
“What? Why?” Landon and the rest was bewildered.
“Because I’m Levi, the bastard you’ve been cursing at.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1818
Levi’s shocking remark silenced everyone.
One could hear a pin drop.
It was an unexpected outcome.
Levi, the Fiery Demon’s heir, is here? Who is going to believe that?
The thousands of people present were in shock. No one dared to move an inch, and even their expressions had frozen.
They looked like stone sculptures.
Almost a minute had passed when someone finally regained their senses.
“W-What did you say? You are the Fiery Demon’s heir?”
The man’s lips were trembling fiercely as he asked.
His voice brought everyone back to their senses.
Dumbstruck with terror, they all stared at Levi. Josephine, Landon, and the rest were especially alarmed.
Their eyes looked as though they were about to pop out.
“I am Levi,” Levi reiterated.
Slowly, his disguise faded away to reveal his appearance underneath.
“Y-You are the Fiery Demon’s heir!”
As soon as they saw Levi’s face, everyone went into a state of frenzy.
Regardless of which group they belonged to, they remembered how Levi looked by heart.
Looking at the man standing on his feet, the Fiery Demon’s followers became excited.
They had been searching for him high and low, and finally, they got to meet him.
After so much effort, they did not expect to meet him like that.
“Greetings to you!”
The followers of the Fiery Demon hurriedly got down on their knees and greeted him.
“From now on, we are your followers and shall obey your orders.”
These people came out from hiding to seek out Levi and take his orders.
Looking at those on their knees, Levi suddenly had a new idea in his head.
Previously, he did not want to associate himself with this evil force and tried to get as far from them as possible.
Yet, now it seems like the Fiery Demon followers were scurrying around like headless chickens and looked easy to manipulate. It was easy to use them to create more chaos and fighting among the martial arts world in Erudia.
Therefore, Levi thought of something new.
Instead of allowing these people to run wild on their own, he could control them instead.
If he commanded them, no one could use them, and nothing similar would happen.
Judging from how loyal these people seemed, it was unlikely for them to go against anything he said.
As long as he could gather all the Fiery Demon’s followers together, he could command them all and prevent any conflicts from occurring in the future.
It would be best if he did that as soon as possible before any other problems arose.
Additionally, if he could round them all up, he would have an invincible army, which would work to his advantage.
“Yes, from today onwards, you shall be my followers,” Levi ordered.
“We are willing to die for you!”
The men on their knees started to bow down to him.
After being accepted by Levi, they were ready to take on anything he asked of them.
It was why Cyrus was so powerful then, in the era of the Fiends.
As though they were in a cult, these people looked up to their masters as gods religiously, and they were fiercely loyal.
No one imagined that this would happen.
It was the right choice to make the two groups go head to head, but Levi appeared out of nowhere.
“Levi, I also know some other followers in this area. I will send someone to notify them to join us!” One of his followers was quick to offer.
Levi nodded in approval. “Yes, let’s gather everyone. It would be good to get everyone together!”
“Levi, that might be difficult. We have to consider a long-term plan!”
His followers looked conflicted.
“Don’t worry. I have a plan.” Levi chuckled. “But before I announce it, let’s deal with those people first.”
Then, he turned his head to Trenton and his team.
Boom!
At that moment, it was as though lightning had struck them.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1819
Instantly, their limbs felt numb, and they turned pale. They shivered as a chill ran down their spine.
It was wildly beyond their imagination that the man was Levi.
They had cursed at him for so long before knowing his identity.
Minutes ago, they humiliated him and even idiotically asked him to kill himself.
There were millions of bizarre incidents in the world, but nothing could compare to this situation.
No one had expected that Levi would appear here.
Besides, they did not expect to meet him.
As Levi glanced at them, they anxiously lowered their heads one by one.
Even Trenton looked at the ground, too afraid to meet Levi’s eyes.
Josephine was no exception too.
No one dared to look up while Levi scrutinized them.
It was especially so for Landon, Yasmin, and those guilty of criticizing Levi earlier.
All they wanted was to disappear from the face of Earth.
Meanwhile, Levi shot them a fiery glare, making them feel like a burning flame scorched their faces.
Nervous, they trembled and broke out in cold sweat.
“Not me, please!” Some murmured prayers under their breaths as they looked away.
“He didn’t see me. I’m not here.”
It was a tense atmosphere, and their hearts felt heavy.
The prolonged silence made it worse for them to bear as they felt like their hearts were about to explode from anxiety.
They could not even breath.
Thud!
Finally, one of them gave in to the pressure and knelt before Levi.
“Master Levi, I’m sorry. It was my mistake for insulting you. Please let a small fry like me off!”
Thud!
Another man mirrored his actions and fell onto his knees.
“Me too. Master Levi, please forgive us. I have a big mouth!”
Thud!
One by one, the warriors got down to their knees, asking Levi for forgiveness.
Trenton and his team could only look at the scene in disbelief.
Even Levi’s followers were astounded to see what had conspired.
Aren’t they the self-righteous warriors? How could they kneel before the Fiery Demon’s heir? What a joke! They are making a fool of themselves.
Levi was amused.
His followers began to laugh.
“Hahaha, shouldn’t you stay true to your values till your death? Why are you kneeling? All of you are possibly the biggest joke I’ve seen!”
In the face of humiliation, Trenton, Josephine, and the other two Stone List warriors felt embarrassed.
Today, they had lost all their pride.
“Since all of you grovel for forgiveness, I shall let you off.”
Levi grinned.
“Thank you, Master Levi!”
They all bowed down to thank him.
“How shameful! All of you are an embarrassment to us! I will never associate myself with you!” Josephine roared.
Trenton and his team could only stare at those people bowing to Levi uncomfortably.
These cowards had ruined their reputation by kneeling before the evil force.
I would rather die than surrender to him! Josephine gritted her teeth in anger.
Immediately, she and Trenton looked approvingly at the others still standing.
The majority of those who had insulted Levi earlier had given in to the pressure.
Only Landon and a few others were still standing on their feet.
“Well done!” Josephine exclaimed and flashed them a thumbs up.
Even if they had to die, at least they stood up against the evil force.
“Hmm, I don’t see those who had the most to say about me on their knees,” Levi mused.
His voice made Landon and Yasmin freeze. They stood as stiff as a wooden block.
Thud!
Falling to his knees, Landon pleaded, “Master Levi, I’m at fault. Please forgive me!”
It took Trenton and the rest by surprise.
I thought we would rather die than surrender?
The Return of God of War Chapter 1820
Everyone was dumbstruck at Landon’s actions.
Isn’t he going to at least hold it out a little more? He is Landon, a warrior on the Stone List. Shouldn’t he be acting more righteous and have more of a backbone?
Trenton and his team wish they could rush forward to give Landon a tight slap at that instant.
Not only them, but the rest of the people behind him were just as frustrated.
“That’s it?”
Even Levi was taken aback by Landon’s behavior.
The person who scolded and cursed at Levi most turned out to be so easily intimidated.
More often than not, such upright gentlemen who only spoke about benevolence and morality turned out to be a hypocrite.
In the midst of a crisis, he would be the first to fold.
Levi coldly muttered, “How about the rest?”
The other three Stone List warriors were shaking.
They could barely withstand the pressure that Levi was putting on them.
“You must not kneel before him! Do not let yourself commit such shameful crimes!” Josephine hurriedly rallied.
“That’s right! We would rather die upholding our morals. There is no way we can surrender to these criminals!” Trenton jumped in too.
The rest of the people remained headstrong. They glared at Levi, refusing to give in.
Yasmin stubbornly yelled, “If you are capable enough, you can have our heads. We will never kneel before you!”
The rest with her also had the same defiant look in their eyes.
“You are not afraid of death. Very well.”
Within seconds, Levi’s expression changed as he exuded a murderous aura.
One could feel his intent to kill from miles away, and the people felt like an invisible hand was strangling their necks.
Each of them felt suffocated, and they scratched their necks, hoping to get rid of the feeling.
Unfortunately, the invisible force only tightened, and everyone’s breaths started getting faster. Their faces were also turning purple from the lack of oxygen.
Those people could not even make a sound, and they struggled in silence.
Slowly, their mind blacked out as they started to lose consciousness. Those few individuals felt like their souls had left their bodies as though they had just experienced death.
Everyone would be scared in face of death.
Thud!
Finally, someone could not stand it any longer and fell to his knees.
More followed after.
In the end, only Yasmin was left standing.
Her eyes were almost popping out of her sockets and she looked like she was on the brink of her death.
At that point, she realized Levi would kill her.
Thump!
Using all the strength left in her body, she scrambled to kneel before Levi.
Everyone had given in to the pressure, with no one left standing.
Levi had broken down their emotional barrier and completely shattered any pride they had.
Sigh.
Trenton and Josephine could no longer stand upright.
They were completely humiliated.
It was a black mark on their lives that they could never remove.
“Master Levi, we are truly sorry. Please accept our apologies.”
The four Stone List warriors were on their knees.
It showed how powerful Levi was.
“Hahaha, this is what is expected of the so-called righteous bodies! I feel we have a stronger backbone.”
Levi’s followers broke out in laugher.
It had been a while since they felt so excited.
“Landon, you have let us down! You are not suited to be on the Stone List, and you are nothing but a disgrace to your family!” Josephine burst out in anger.
Hearing that, Landon crawled closer to Levi.
“Master Levi, from now on, I will serve you. After all, I’m sure you will dominate the martial arts world in Erudia. Who would dare insult you from now on?”
He had completely changed his stance, and everyone was in disbelief.
How shameless!
“Master Levi, you should kill all of these people going against you! Do not leave anyone behind.” Landon gritted his teeth and snarled with hatred.
“Kill them all?”
