Ch. 1921..1930
The Return of God of War Chapter 1921
The Twin Meteorites chased after Levi.
“Huh? What’s up?” asked Levi.
“We heard about what happened to your wife. You must be troubled by it,” replied one guy.
Levi nodded.
“Master, we have some news, and it might be able to help you.”
“What is that?”
“According to our sources, Goldenport Island had always been the place where masters of magical techniques gathered. “The most powerful master of magical techniques on the Gem List, Xenotoph, lives there!
“There are many other masters of magical techniques who could use geomancy to change a person’s luck. “Some are malicious beings who could control others’ minds and kill them from miles away, though.
“Still, we got to know a master, and his skills are incredible! He might be able to help with your wife’s illness!”
Levi’s entire body trembled upon hearing that.
He was desperate and would not let go of any glimmer of hope.
“The only thing is that this master of magical techniques is a weirdo, and it’s difficult to get him to accept a case.
“This is his address and information. Our parents are his acquaintances, so he might help if you hand him this letter upon meeting him… “Err… We can’t be certain if he’d be willing to help, even with the letter, though. “He is really weird, but you should try looking for him, anyway.”
The Twin Meteorites handed the letter and the folder with the master’s information to Levi.
“Okay. Thank you, boys. I will head over to Goldenport Island right away!”
Levi didn’t waste any time. He rushed to Goldenport Island immediately after.
He would try, even if the chances were low.
Levi left, but everyone kept staring in the direction he walked away in.
That was especially true for Josephine and Yasmin.
Josephine sighed and commented, “I envy them so much. They must be his disciples and could hang out with him all the time. He even taught them in person…”
Josephine’s voice brimmed with envy as she spoke.
Yasmin shook her head and pointed out, “That may not be for the best. They are his disciple, and we’re not, but think about this from another perspective. If we were his disciples, we will have to forget about being anyone else to him.”
Josephine blushed as soon as Yasmin finished that last sentence.
We cannot be his wife if we are his disciple. At least, in our current situation, we still have a shot at being with him.
“Hey, do you think we’d have a shot at…?”
Josephine couldn’t bring herself to finish the rest of that sentence.
“How would I know? Well… I pray for that to be possible…”
Levi was already on a ship to Goldenport Island at that moment. He had no idea that he left such a remarkable impression on the two young ladies.
He was in the cabin and was reading up on the master of magical techniques that the Twin Meteorites talked about.
Levi didn’t want to attract any attention, so he put on a disguise before he boarded the ship.
Just then, a series of wild noises came from outside.
A server came to knock on his door to inform apologetically, “We are so sorry, sir, but someone just booked the entire ship. Please take another ship to your destination. Don’t worry as we will refund your ticket in full.”
“Huh? It’s been block booked?” blurted Levi.
“Yes, sir. Please cooperate with us,” replied the server.
“What the f*ck have you been doing? Why are you only informing me of all this after I’ve already boarded the ship?” demanded Levi.
“We have no choice, sir. We have to obey our employer’s order. Besides, the people who have block booked the ship are not ordinary folks. Do you know who they are? They are the God of Gamblers’ granddaughter and her friends, who are some of the richest heirs on Goldenport Island!
“They insist on block booking the ship, so what could we do but obey?” replied the server before sighing.
That ship was the last one to head over to Goldenport Island. Levi would have to wait for another day if he didn’t leave in it. Hence, there was no way he’d give up his seat when he’s in a hurry to save his wife!
“Fine! How much did they offer? I will double the offer and block book this ship!” replied Levi.
“Huh? T-that is not feasible. Please, sir. Listen to me. You should get off the ship quickly to prevent any problems from arising,” advised the server.
Levi sneered and replied, “I’ve already boarded the ship, and there is no way I’d get off it!”
“Is that so? Who’s the idi*t who refused to leave?” growled someone.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1922
After that growl, a few dozen people showed up in the corridor.
A few youngsters stood in the front while a bunch of bodyguards followed closely behind.
Some were Erudians, while others were foreigners.
The thing every bodyguard had in common, however, was that they were all terrifying martial artists and men with superpowers.
The fact that they were willing to be the youngsters’ bodyguards showed just how powerful those youngsters were.
Their leader was a woman who was about six feet tall and had curves that were as sexy as a model’s figure.
She had a beautiful face that could take anyone’s breath away.
A ponytail hung proudly on the back of her head and made her look down-to-earth.
Yet, her aura was undeniably regal and unapproachable.
That was the God of Gamblers’ granddaughter and the heir to the Hilton family. Her name was Sherrie Hilton.
The three other members of her gang were Ronald, whose family was the second richest family on Goldenport Island; Priscilla, who was from the third richest family; and Freddie, who was from the fourth richest family.
Every single one of them exuded an incredible aura, and it was obvious that they were from powerful families.
The company Levi and Zoey founded was growing exponentially, but their wealth was still a short distance away from the Goldenport Island’s families.
Every single one of the youngsters looked fierce.
They had block booked the entire ship and chased almost everyone off of it. Levi was the only one who refused to get off.
As far as those rich brats were concerned, that was a taunt against them.
“Me! I refuse to leave,” said Levi to answer Sherrie’s question before he scoffed.
Sherrie had a cruel expression on her face. She only looked at Levi for a second before she turned to face another direction.
Regular men had always failed to capture her attention.
It never mattered how many handsome guys there were on Goldenport Island. Similarly, it didn’t matter if they were skilled investors, mysterious magicians, talented martial artists, or men with superpowers.
None of them caught her eyes.
Sherrie was extremely picky and had never been attracted to anybody…
Or at least that was the case until she learned about the guy ranked number one on the Gem List… the guy whose name was Levi Garrison.
She even declared that her future husband had to be as incredible as Levi Garrison of the Gem List.
Her words shocked the entire Goldenport Island.
That’s crazy! How many men could achieve that level of success and power? The guy is ranked number one on the Gem List, for heaven’s sake!
What Sherrie didn’t know was that the person she admired, Levi Garrison, was right in front of her.
That was why she lost interest in him immediately after she shot a look at him.
Priscilla, on the other hand, stared a little longer.
She noticed that Levi was strangely calm. He never batted an eye even though we approached him with so many men.
“Oy, you! F*ck out of here,” demanded Freddie rudely and impatiently.
Levi never budged. Instead, he retaliated, “Why should I? You j*rks should be the ones who f*ck out of here!”
One sentence was all it took to attract everybody’s attention. They stared at him.
Even Sherrie couldn’t help turning to him.
What an arrogant prick!
That was the one thought that everyone shared.
“Why? Because we’re the ones who block-booked this entire ship, so you have to get off!” replied Freddie through gritted teeth.
Levi chuckled upon hearing that. He informed, “Sorry, but I just doubled the price and block booked this ship for myself. As of now, it belongs to me, so you guys have to get off now!”
“Huh?”
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.
Even the crews and the servers were stunned. When did he double the price and block book the ship?
“No way! Why didn’t anyone tell us that someone else has block booked the ship?”
Freddie and the others glared at the ship’s workers.
“N-no. None of these happened…”
The captain of the ship was quick to try to explain the situation.
“You never informed me that you are going to block book this ship, either. That is why I get to block book it as I please. Besides, I was here first, so I should get to make the offer before you guys do,” interrupted Levi.
“Y-you’re making a fool out of us!” roared Freddie.
“Throw him overboard right away,” instructed Freddie. His men were going to attack after hearing his words.
“Wait! There’s no point in making a fuss. Let’s just ignore him and let him be.”
A melodious voice came, and it seemed that Sherrie was the one who had issued the order.
“Fine, I will do as you say, Sherrie. You got lucky this time, punk!”
Freddie stopped making a fuss.
However, just before he left, he turned to Levi and scoffed, “When we get to Goldenport Island, I will teach you what cruelty truly looks like!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1923
The heirs looked icily at Levi before they left.
They behaved like they were heavenly deities who were looking down on mere mortals.
For people whose family was almost as wealthy as the God of Gamblers, commoners were nothing more than just maggots.
Levi, however, never gave a sh*t about the spoiled brat’s threats.
Plenty had threatened him over the years, but how many of them actually succeeded in hurting him?
None!
Even Bruce and the entire country of Zarain couldn’t do anything to him.
Hence, what could those punks really do to him?
Sherrie was quick to leave.
She didn’t want to deal with annoying issues, so she allowed Levi to stay on board.
However, she wouldn’t care if Levi died after he got off the ship.
That was why she wouldn’t stop Freddie from doing anything to Levi afterward.
After the slight delay, Levi returned to read about the master of magical techniques that the Twin Meteorites talked about.
He truly is a legend.
He was born a cripple and didn’t have a left hand or a right foot. His right eye is also blind, and his left ear is deaf.
Legend has it that he is the man blessed with heavenly foresight. That is why he is born crippled to compensate for the gift he is blessed with.
Levi continued reading on and learned all the mysterious achievements the guy had accomplished.
The more Levi studied the materials, the more he found the guy to be incredible. It also boosted his confidence.
This is good. It means that Zoey has a good shot at recovering!
Sherrie and the others were gathered in the first-class cabin.
“Your marriage will be arranged once you return, Sherrie. It looks like you won’t be able to get away from it this time,” commented Priscilla.
Sherrie seemed calm when she replied, “That is my destiny, and I have no choice but to accept it.”
Ronald grinned and replied, “Don’t be sad, Sherrie. I’ve met your husband-to-be, and he is the heir to the incredibly wealthy Cryptic Stream Corporation. His powers and the family background are both legit and incredible! Hence, you are definitely marrying one of the best guys there is.
“And you want to know the most important bit?”
Ronald deliberately lowered his voice and tilted his head down to get everyone to gather around.
“What?”
His gangs stared curiously at him.
“Guess which organization is backing the Cryptic Stream Corporation up?”
“Which one?”
“It’s the legendary Lab of Gods from Zarain! It is the most mysterious and most terrifying lab there is. I’m sure you’ve heard about this organization, right?” replied Ronald.
Everyone nodded simultaneously as fear oozed out of their eyes.
Yep, that was the organization that supported Bruce from behind the scenes.
Hence, the mere mention of that name was able to instill fear.
This laboratory has grown so big that it could regard itself as a divine creature that rules over humanity!
“Of course, I’ve heard of it. We’ve even bought secret weapons from the Lab of God before. I never realize that the Cryptic Stream Corporation is their alliance,” replied Sherrie in astonishment.
“It would be more accurate to say that the Cryptic Stream Corporation belongs to the Lab of Gods! As the most advanced laboratory, it needed an incredible amount of funds and resources. That is why the Cryptic Stream Corporation is the best cash cow for them,” shared Ronald.
Priscilla and the others gasped before she asked, “Is that really the case? Well, I guess it’s good if all that is true. Sherrie, you’re really going to marry really well. My grandpa told me that even the slightest connection to the Lab of Gods would allow us to rank at the top in the world. Being an actual part of it will be even more incredible. If Sherrie marries the guy, there is a good chance that she can join them!”
“Exactly! Sherrie, this is a great opportunity. I’ve heard that the Lab of Gods actually controls every vital part of the world. Hence, they truly are at the top of the food chain.”
Everyone stared at Sherrie enviously.
Even Sherrie couldn’t help feeling better about the arranged marriage.
Her marriage had always been destined to be a loveless arranged marriage that stemmed from mutual benefits. Hence, the brighter the future it offered, the better things were for her.
Sherrie grew up in a family that valued profit above everything else, so it was only natural that she wanted to be at the top.
Under those circumstances, the Lab of Gods was simply too attractive to her.
If Levi actually heard the conversation, he would probably be shocked as well.
Just how terrifying was the Lab of Gods?
The ship sailed all day and night before it reached Goldenport Island.
Just before they got off the ship, Freddie grinned and said, “I almost forgot about that punk. Wait for him here!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1924
Sherrie and the others left beforehand because they didn’t care about Levi at all.
To them, he was nothing more than an ant on the ground.
Freddie was young, so it was understandable that he was upset after Levi told him off.
That was why he waited for Levi.
“My family has always reminded me not to make a mess in any other regions of Erudia because it would be troublesome to deal with the aftermath. However, we’re on Goldenport Island now, and this is my turf! Just watch as I bring you to your knees,” murmured Freddie before he sneered.
It only took him a second before he came up with tons of ideas to hurt Levi.
Those thoughts were so cruel that Freddie almost laughed aloud.
“Why hasn’t that punk left?” asked one bodyguard, who couldn’t help getting impatient. It had been minutes, but there were still no signs of Levi.
“Let’s wait a little longer. The economic cabin is probably too far away,” replied Freddie.
Five minutes passed…
Ten minutes went…
Time trickled by.
They waited for twenty whole minutes, but Freddie and his men never saw Levi around.
“What is going on? Did that punk get off beforehand?” blurted Freddie, who was starting to get suspicious.
“That is not possible. We have been standing guard by the entrance ever since the ship got near the harbor. No one has left the ship. That punk is just an ordinary guy, so there is no way he could’ve left without us noticing,” informed one guard firmly.
They were all incredible fighters, so there was no way a person could slip away without them noticing.
It is simply impossible!
Freddie didn’t doubt what his men said.
“Is that punk hiding on the ship because he’s afraid I’d go after him?” blurted Freddie, who thought that was the only thing that made sense.
“It’s possible!”
The men’s eyes glowed.
“Then go search the ship now! And leave a few guys here to stand guard.”
Over ten of Freddie’s bodyguards boarded the ship to look for Levi.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t find him anywhere, even after they searched every inch of the place.
“What are you looking for?” asked a worker on the ship.
“Where is that punk?” demanded Freddie.
“Oh, him? He got off the ship ages ago.”
There weren’t many people on the ship, so the servers paid attention to Levi as well.
They saw Levi hopping off the ship with their own eyes.
“What? He left? When did that happen?”
Freddie and his men were downright stunned.
“About twenty minutes ago.”
“That is not possible. We were standing guard over here twenty minutes ago, so he couldn’t have left!” insisted Freddie.
The worker grinned in exasperation and replied, “I checked the watch when I saw him hopping off, so I’m certain I got the time right.”
“It’s true. We all saw the guy leaving twenty minutes ago,” informed the rest of the crew.
Freddie and his men were stunned because they could tell that the workers weren’t lying.
“What the hell?”
How can a person disappear into thin air like that?
We were standing guard the entire time, so how could he have slipped away from right under our noses?
That is not possible… unless that guy is…
The only other explanation they could come up with was that Levi was not an ordinary guy. Instead, he was a great fighter who was more powerful than everyone around.
But that is not likely.
“Do you think maybe he knew that we were standing guard, so he jumped into the sea and swam away?” suggested a guard.
“Yes! That is possible.”
Everyone thought that made perfect sense.
Freddie had his men search the ship one more time and only left after they were certain that no one was there.
Despite that, Freddie thought that something seemed off.
My men should’ve detected him even if he jumped into the sea. They are not ordinary bodyguards after all. These men are either skilled fighters or have superpowers. They should’ve detected someone slipping away as soon as he swam away.
“Something is off. Find him!”
Freddie sent his men to search the entire Goldenport Island for Levi.
At that moment, Levi was already at the center of the busy district.
He wanted to avoid unnecessary troubles, so he deliberately avoided Freddie and his men.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1925
It wasn’t like Levi was afraid of that pretentious punk. The former just thought that it was troublesome.
Moreover, he was too lazy to fight.
Those punks aren’t worthy of me fighting back, anyway.
Levi went straight to look for the master of magical techniques that his disciples told him about.
Freddie joined Sherrie and the others soon after.
“You look terrible, Freddie. Did something happen?” asked Sherrie when she sensed that something was off.
Ronald teased, “Dude, that punk didn’t beat you up, didn’t he?”
“No,” replied Freddie sourly, “He knew that I would go after him, so he actually jumped into the sea to escape!”
“Well, it’s fine so long as you’re not hurt.”
Levi was just an ordinary dude to Sherrie and the others, so they weren’t interested in him.
They certainly weren’t going to keep asking about him.
It didn’t take long before they reached a manor so luxurious that it looked like a palace.
There were thousands of bodyguards, and covert sentries were everywhere.
Every single bodyguard was also armed with advanced weaponry.
That was the Hilton family’s residence—Manor of Ultimate Dragonite.
“Ms. Sherrie, the heir to the Cryptic Stream Corporation will arrive on Goldenport Island tomorrow. Rumor had it that he is a legend in Zarain, and to be frank, no young man in Erudia is a match against him.
“The entire family loves him, and your grandpa especially adores him,” announced the butler, who came to welcome everyone.
As he did that, he praised Sherrie’s fiancé endlessly.
“But he is not a match against Levi Garrison!” refuted Sherrie.
She was willing to accept the arrangement that her family made. However, that didn’t mean that she would accept the guy.
As far as she was concerned, Levi was still her idol.
The four of them left the Goldenport Island earlier to watch the Elites Conference.
They went because their families wanted them to travel, learn more and build a better social network.
In a way, that was the place where all of Erudia… Hell, maybe even all of Bayview went to find a potential suitor.
Sherrie and Priscilla were impressed with the men there… until Levi showed up out of nowhere!
He stole the show away and got hundreds of those impressive young talents to regard him as their master. That left an incredible impression on the ladies.
On top of that, Levi was only a few years older than they were.
His was undeniably attractive and charismatic as well.
After seeing how incredible Levi was, everyone else became plain to Sherrie.
The heir of the Cryptic Stream Corporation is nothing but a person who is profiting off of the Lab of Gods!
“Huh? Levi Garrison? Oh, everyone should hurry inside because the others want to know how things went at the Elites Conference.”
The butler led Sherrie and her gang into the manor after that.
Every inch of the manor was luxurious, and every decoration would cost more than what a commoner could make in a lifetime.
Inside the conference room that was as regal as a palace.
The key members of the Hilton family were all there.
Naturally, the head of the family was none other than the God of Gamblers, Johannes Hilton.
He was a legend on Goldenport Island, and no one knew how rich he was or how many figurative trump cards he actually had up his sleeves.
One thing was for sure, though. No one on Goldenport Island dared to offend him.
Even powerful martial artists and masters of magical techniques would be respectful toward him.
That was how powerful the God of Gamblers was.
He held a walking cane with a dragon’s head on it and looked powerful.
Some of the people sitting beside him were his siblings, but most were his offspring.
Johannes had four legitimate children, but rumor had it that he actually had over ten kids.
A sweet smile only showed up on Johannes’ grim expression after he saw that Sherrie was back.
Among all his grandchildren, Sherrie was his favorite.
Everyone exchanged pleasantries.
Johannes then asked, “Sherrie, did anyone learn anything from the Elites Conference? Or perhaps you can give us an overview of what happened there?”
Sherrie and her gang started sharing everything they saw at the Elites Conference.
That got everyone to gasp in astonishment.
“Grandpa, the person who impressed me the most is Levi Garrison, who is at the top of the Gem List,” informed Sherrie before she described Levi in detail.
A key member of the Hilton family blurted, “How great would it be if Levi Garrison is a part of our family?”
Johannes glared over evilly and scolded, “Not even in your dreams!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1926
“Who do you think Levi Garrison is? He is the Fiery Demon’s heir and a unique force of evil! That man is ranked number one on the Gem List, and even Bruce from the Lab of Gods couldn’t defeat him. Hell, the guy was so powerful that he turned down the invitation from the Sacred Organization.
“How will the Hilton family, ever be equal to a powerful being like that?
“Never make any comment like this again! It will not do well for us if others overhear you. Even if Levi doesn’t mind or come after us, his subordinates, the Seven Fiends, can still cause a huge problem for us!” roared Johannes angrily.
“Dad, is Levi truly that terrifying?” asked Sherrie’s uncle, Terrell Hilton.
Johannes scoffed and replied, “He is even more dangerous than what you can imagine. Let me put it this way. If he ever comes to Goldenport Island, no one will be a match against him. We certainly cannot afford to offend the guy.”
Terrell sighed and replied, “That’s true. The most powerful being on Goldenport Island is Xenotoph, but he is ranked behind Levi on the Gem List. Hence, there is no way he’d be a match against Levi. If Levi ever comes to Goldenport Island, the place will be turned upside down, and there will be nothing anyone can do about it.”
Freddie blurted and asked, “If Sherrie is engaged to Levi, does that mean she would no longer need to marry the heir of the Cryptic Stream Corporation?”
Johannes was slightly taken aback, but he eventually replied, “That is possible, but I heard that Levi is already married with a kid. Moreover, the heir of the Cryptic Stream Corporation has a better future.”
Sherrie’s gaze slowly became dimmer.
“Sherrie, don’t fantasize about anything else anymore. Remember that the heir of the Cryptic Stream Corporation will be here tomorrow and interact well with him.
“Joining forces with the Cryptic Stream Corporation via a marriage, then getting affiliated with the Lab of Gods. That is what our family should aim for!”
“Understood,” replied everyone else while nodding.
It didn’t take long before Freddie and the others left.
Inside the car.
“We’ve completed a basic investigation, but there is no sign of that punk.”
“Huh… why do I feel like the guy is a little mysterious?”
Freddie sighed and replied, “Gah, never mind. There is no point in wasting so much time on an ordinary guy.”
Levi had already reached the address that the Twin Meteorites gave him by then.
A church was located there, but it had been abandoned for quite a while.
Dust was everywhere, and cobwebs donned every corner.
It didn’t look like anyone was living there, and Levi couldn’t find anyone in his search.
Judging by the state of the place, it has been abandoned for at least five years.
“Did those two make a mistake?” murmured Levi.
But the Twin Meteorites have always been focused and diligent, so it is not likely that they’d make a mistake like this.
The only explanation is that the master of magical techniques has already left the place.
That means that this is a timing issue.
It doesn’t matter, though.
I am already on Goldenport Island, so it shouldn’t be difficult for me to find the guy.
I’m an outsider, so I don’t know much. However, the locals here must know something about the guy!
After Levi left the church, he had West Sky Lord investigate and learn which family was the most powerful family on the island.
I’ll just go over directly and ask them where the master of magical techniques I am looking for is.
“My suggestion is to go ask the Hilton family directly,” reported West Sky Lord with a smile.
“Okay,” replied Levi before he hailed a cab.
“Where are you heading?”
“To the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite.”
The driver was stunned when he heard that answer. He couldn’t help but stare at Levi in disbelief.
Everyone on Goldenport Island knew that the Hilton family was staying in the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite.
That is the forbidden area!
Ordinary folks tended to be too afraid to even get close to that place because it would likely turn into a one-way trip. They might actually lose their lives there.
“Are you sure you want to go to the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite?” asked the cab driver.
“Of course, I’m sure.”
“You do know that the Hilton family lives there, right?” asked the cab driver as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
“Yes, I know that. Just take me there. Why are you talking endlessly like that?” complained Levi, who was getting impatient.
“Okay, then.”
About an hour later.
The cab driver fled in his car after he dropped Levi off near the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1927
The cab driver had never met anyone who was brave enough to walk right to the Hilton family’s home.
Levi’s outfit also suggested that he was just a regular dude, so it felt like there was no way he’d be connected to the Hilton family.
If he is actually a powerful man, why would he need to get a cab?
All those points made it so that the cab driver was certain that Levi wouldn’t leave the place in one piece.
He will likely die from this trip.
Levi saw the manor some distance away and started making his way toward it.
Unfortunately, he had already caught many people’s eyes by then.
They watched as he slowly approached the manor’s front door.
That was just how strict the security guards stationed there were.
They had to be sure that danger would remain far away from the manor.
Hence, they wouldn’t even let a poisonous spider get through.
Someone like Levi was, therefore, definitely out of the question!
“Hold it right there! What are you doing?”
Someone shouted, and over ten bodyguards zipped over. They had Levi surrounded.
“Who’s the head of this place?” asked Levi, who didn’t bother answering the guy’s question.
“Hahaha…”
Everyone was taken aback for a moment before they laughed aloud.
“You don’t even know where you are, punk?”
“Listen up, dude. This is the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite, and this is where the God of Gamblers lives. Naturally, the head of this place is the God of Gamblers himself!”
Levi nodded upon hearing that. He demanded, “Okay, then have him come meet me now!”
Wow, he’s just going to be that blunt? Levi’s words got everyone stunned in place.
They turned to one another as the same thought ran past all of their minds… Is this guy a retard?
He’s actually demanding that the God of Gamblers, who is like the king of this island, come to him?
He’s either so sick that he’s delusional or he is just a lunatic.
“What are you still standing around for? Go get him over already! The guy’s name is… uh… Johannes Hilton, right? Get him to come to me now! You will have to bear the consequences if there are any delays,” ordered Levi.
Johannes Hilton? Who the hell is that?
The bodyguards were all stunned.
It had been years since anyone regarded the God of Gamblers by his real name.
Even influential figures had to regard the guy as the God of Gamblers instead of calling him by his name.
It got to the point where the others couldn’t recall his name when it was uttered all of a sudden like that.
“T-that is the God of Gambler’s name, right?”
“Oh, my gosh. You are crazy, punk! How dare you call him by his legal name? Are you trying to kill yourself?”
It didn’t take long before everyone else came around.
Anger donned their faces.
“You ignorant punk. Are you here to cause trouble? Demanding that the God of Gamblers come to you like this… You must have a death wish.”
“Geez, I can’t believe you came to make a scene and call the God of Gamblers by his real name. You’d have to be a f*cking lucky a*shole to survive this!”
The security guards started making a fuss.
Levi, however, simply scoffed and warned, “Here’s some genuine advice. Get the God of Gamblers to come to me now, or I will attack! It will be bad for everyone if that occurs.”
Hearing those words further infuriated the guards.
Levi was, in effect, taunting them repeatedly.
They simply couldn’t hold their anger in anymore.
It had been decades, and no one on Goldenport Island ever dared to come and make a scene there in the God of Gamblers’ house.
And to think that this punk is the one doing this all alone now. He is so stupid… brave, but stupid!
“Quit wasting your breath on him. Kill him and feed him to the sharks.”
Levi shook his head in exasperation. He tried to be civil, but it didn’t work, so he had to resort to violence.
Let’s go then. I’ll make this a quick battle so I can get to the God of Gamblers quickly and learn where that master of magical techniques is.
“Attack! Kill that punk!”
They were about to attack when a melodious voice came.
“Hold on, don’t attack just yet!”
Sherrie happened to be in a car and heading back into the house. She had just parted ways with Priscilla and the others.
Even from a distance, she could tell that someone was making a scene at the front gate.
“What’s going on?” demanded Sherrie.
“This punk came to taunt and cause trouble. He even demanded that the God of Gamblers come to see him in person! He went as far as claiming that he would fight his way in, if that is what it takes,” reported the security guard right away.
“What? I can’t believe something like this happened. D*mn the guy. How dare he taunt the Hilton family?”
Sherrie’s expression had taken a sharp turn, and her aura turned as icy as a snowstorm.
Just then, Levi turned around.
The two of them looked into each other’s eyes.
“You?”
Sherrie blurted in astonishment.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1928
Sherrie definitely didn’t expect to see the guy there at her front gate.
That’s the guy I ignored on the ship!
At that moment, Sherrie couldn’t help but feel intrigued.
It didn’t matter how ordinary the guy was. The fact that he had the guts to make a scene at the God of Gamblers’ place meant that he was different.
This is shocking!
I can’t believe that the guy is coming after the Hilton family! I guess that means he is not like the others?
That was the first time Sherrie got curious about Levi.
If Freddie and the others knew how she felt, they would probably be so surprised that their jaws would drop.
“Huh? Do you know him, Ms. Sherrie?”
A security guard noticed something off, and he couldn’t help asking about it.
“Yeah, we met once,” answered Sherrie before she shifted her gaze to Levi and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Levi didn’t answer her question. Instead, he asked, “Who is the God of Gamblers to you?”
“He is my grandpa.”
“Then everything is much easier now. Get your grandpa over. I have a question for him!”
Levi’s tone got everyone to feel extremely unpleasant, including Sherrie.
Who the f*ck do you think you are? How dare you demand that the God of Gamblers come to you?
“This punk is too arrogant. Let’s just kill him off right away,” suggested the bodyguard, who couldn’t hold his anger in anymore.
“Wait, I have questions for him,” replied Sherrie.
She turned to Levi and asked, “Who are you and where are you from? Why are you looking for my grandpa?”
“You don’t need to know that. Just get him over,” instructed Levi icily.
“Is that so? Okay, then I guess it’s none of my business what happens to you too,” replied Sherrie before she turned around and left to enter the manor.
As the bodyguards for the Hilton family, the men on site had to be more than just skilled fighters. They also had to be smart.
They could tell what Sherrie was really saying. She said that this has nothing to do with her, so that means we get to decide how we deal with this punk!
The bodyguards grinned evilly.
They were just waiting for Sherrie to say those exact words because they had been itching to teach Levi a lesson.
“Attack!”
Over ten bodyguards had Levi surrounded and were ready to attack.
Sherrie entered the manor with a nonchalant expression on.
Levi’s actions that day caught her attention, but that only lasted a moment.
She still didn’t care if he died.
Boom!
Bang!
Crack!
Yet, just as Sherrie reached the front door, she heard a loud voice and a heavy metallic item flew over. It landed next to the front door.
She saw, with her own eyes, that the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite’s gate had been kicked down!
That was just a regular guy; yet, he knocked the gate down with one kick!
Sherrie stopped walking instantly. The nonchalance on her face faded and was replaced by astonishment.
At that moment, her mind was a complete blank.
She couldn’t register any information at all, and it was all just the beginning.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The security guards tried to stop Levi, but every single one of them ended up lying on the ground like the broken gate.
Ten loud booms later, the gate was officially crashed.
The security guards lying on the ground were all curled up like cooked prawns, and their pained moans were endless.
That was when Sherrie’s mind slowly came back around.
She turned around and saw how Levi was standing just a short distance away.
He’s that powerful? Our bodyguards are terrifyingly strong and skilled! Yet, they can’t stop that puny thing? He’s definitely something else…
Sherrie’s legs trembled. Her mind finally registered the shocking fact presented in front of her.
At that moment, the loud noise had also attracted the Hilton family’s attention.
The destruction of the gate, in particular, was a huge concern.
This is a grave issue!
People inside the manor, and those in its surrounding area, kept showing up.
Even the council members of the Hilton family were alerted.
Terrell and his gang came over.
“What happened? What’s wrong?”
The crowd kept murmuring.
“Something terrible happened! Someone barged into the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite and wounded over ten of our men. Raise the alarm! Now!”
The bodyguard at the front gate raised the alarm right away.
Unfortunately, that only worsened the issue.
The blaring siren filled up every corner of the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite.
It seemed that even Johannes would be alarmed.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1929
As suspected, Johannes showed up with a number of his bodyguards.
Thousands of skilled fighters under the Hilton family’s paycheck gathered around as well.
That was the first time something like that happened since the Hilton family was founded.
Someone actually went after the Hilton family in their own home!
That was unheard of!
The alarm hadn’t been raised in decades, and the fact that it was going off at that moment had put the entire Hilton family on high alert.
Every modern weapon had been fired up.
Ninety-nine percent of all skilled fighters hired by the Hilton family had gathered right away.
Even the God of Gamblers’ forces, which had been assigned all over Goldenport Island, sent their men over immediately.
The other powerful families on Goldenport Island offered to help as well.
In short, the entire Goldenport Island was in chaos right away.
It seemed that Levi’s punches had turned Goldenport Island upside down.
Thousands of people gathered around the front door of the Manor of Ultimate Dragonite in a blink of an eye.
So many people surrounded the place that there was hardly any space to even move.
Everyone stared at Levi, and they couldn’t help feeling surprised when they saw that he was alone.
At first, they assumed that some powerful forces had assaulted the manor.
Who would’ve thought that it was just one guy?
“The God of Gamblers is here!” announced someone.
It didn’t take long before Johannes showed up with his cane.
“What’s going on?” demanded Johannes in displeasure.
Sherrie witnessed everything in person, so she shared what happened with everyone.
“Grandpa, you guys are too sensitive to danger. It’s just that one dude! Why are we making such a fuss?”
Sherrie had since regained her footing.
She truly was surprised earlier, but that was only because Levi turned out to be unexpectedly strong.
He is just a regular dude, but he somehow caused an explosion. That can be terrifying, and that must be why I lost my footing earlier.
“That’s true, but something like this has never happened before, so it’s best if we proceed carefully,” replied Johannes.
That is precisely why I said that everyone is too jumpy. Everybody’s simply inexperienced and acting overboard.
“What happened? What’s wrong?”
Sherrie’s friends showed up as well.
They were shocked when they saw Levi standing in the middle of the chaos.
Among them, Freddie was the most surprised one.
He had sent countless men to search for Levi. Who would’ve thought that the guy would end up here in the God of Gamblers’ place?
“I-is this commotion all because of him?” asked Priscilla, whose eyes were shining with disbelief.
Sherrie nodded.
“So, you’ve come all the way over to make a scene… you’re so dead, punk! Let me share something with you, Sherrie…”
Freddie told everyone how Levi slipped away from the ship that day.
“I guess it wasn’t an accident that he got away earlier. This punk actually is skilled,” commented Freddie as he glared over at Levi and requested, “Everyone can sit back and leave this to me. I will handle that punk!”
Freddie thought that the timing was perfect because he wanted to get back at Levi.
“Wait!”
An authoritative voice halted everyone.
The God of Gamblers had stepped forward.
Freddie and the others moved away instantly.
Johannes’s gaze was sharp. He glared intently at Levi and asked, “Why did you come to my house, kid? I heard that you are here to ask for an audience with me. Is that right?”
“Yeah, that’s right. The reason I came looking for you is simple. I want to know a person’s whereabouts from you.”
Huh! Are you kidding?
Levi’s words got everyone on site shocked.
Everyone initially assumed that Levi was only there to taunt and make a scene, but it turned out that he was there to look for someone.
Sherrie was stunned.
Johannes stood in shock.
Everyone was speechless.
Johannes was quiet for a few seconds before he asked, “Who are you looking for?”
Things had progressed to that extent, so even Johannes was getting curious.
Who is the person he is looking for? Why is he so eager to locate that person who he is willing to risk coming all the way over?
“I am looking for a master of magical techniques, but I don’t know his real name. All I know is that he is known as the Half Phantom. Do you know who he is?” asked Levi.
“What? You’re looking for him?”
The aura in the place froze over and changed drastically as soon as Levi uttered those words.
Johannes, in particular, was looking off.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1930
The younger generation felt nothing when they heard about the name.
However, the elder generation shifted their expression sharply because Levi mentioned the topic that had since been forbidden on Goldenport Island.
There was a reason he was known as the “half” phantom, and it was because he was neither kind nor evil. See, the guy was incredible at geomancy.
Hence, many rich and famous on Goldenport Island used to consult him whenever they planned anything major event, such as starting a business or throwing a wedding.
Anyone who consulted him would end up having a fruitful adventure.
Even powerful figures such as the God of Gamblers had turned to the Half Phantom for a consultation.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that almost everyone on the island went to him, and it was accurate to claim that every powerful figure on the island owed their power to the Half Phantom.
That was why Levi was shocked when he looked through the guy’s folder.
It was incredible! The guy was practically responsible for the glorious growth on Goldenport Island, and his influence lasted decades.
Everything grew from him, and he was the root of all that success.
Unfortunately, his sins were just as terrifying and as long-lasting as his achievements.
At first, everyone called him the Half Phantom because he was born with physical defects and was not aesthetically pleasing.
That had since change.
The Half Phantom suddenly became a forbidden topic, and the mere mention of his title inspired endless fear.
Unfortunately, the higher-ups in Goldenport Island completely sealed off all records of what happened next.
That was why the younger generation of Goldenport Island and the citizens outside the island had no idea who the Half Phantom was.
It was also why the information provided by the Twin Meteorites was off.
Levi knew that he came to the right place when he saw the expression that Johannes and the others were wearing.
Thank the heavens that I came straight to the God of Gamblers. If I had gone to anyone else, I would have wasted my time.
It seems that Sherrie and the other youngsters have no idea who the Half Phantom is because they are staring strangely at Johannes and me.
“Yeah, you guessed it right. I came to look for the Half Phantom!” confirmed Levi.
Anger crept up on Johannes’ face. He shouted, “Leave! There’s no one here who goes by that title, and I have no idea where he is.”
Johannes’ response was unexpected.
The intruder is so rude and is babbling some nonsense about the Half Phantom… Why would the God of Gamblers let the guy live? Why is he simply chasing the guy away? Does it have something to do with the Half Phantom?
“Huh… Are you sure you don’t know where he is?” Levi tried his luck again.
Johannes insisted, “I am sure! You should stop looking for him as well. Leave Goldenport Island now or you will die a horrible death!”
“Does he really not know?” muttered Levi to himself. He was on the verge of giving up and leaving when he received a message from the West Sky Lord.
The message read: The God of Gamblers has imprisoned the Half Phantom.
Levi’s expression changed after he finished reading that message. He slowly tilted his head up, and his gaze locked in on Johannes.
Guilt rose up on Johannes when he saw how Levi was staring. The former threatened, “Leave now! I will make sure you die a horrible death if you don’t!”
Levi scoffed and replied, “Why are you looking so guilty? I bet you have the Half Phantom locked up.”
His words sent a wave of surprise once more. Johannes, his siblings, and his sons looked even worse off. Disbelief donned every single one of their faces.
“H-how did you know that?”
Terrell instantly turned pale, and he panted heavily.
That was what Johannes was about to ask.
It was at that moment that everyone started paying attention to Levi and taking the guy seriously.
So he knows all along that I have the Half Phantom locked up! That is why he came here.
Sherrie and her friends were still confused. They had no idea what was going on.
“W-who are you and how do you know him?” asked Johannes with a hint of fear in his voice.
Levi grinned and replied, “I have never met him before, and I only came to ask for his help. Hand the guy over. I will not partake in the personal vendetta you guys have against each other. I just want his help.”
Hearing Levi’s words got Johannes to calm down by quite a bit.
“So, you don’t know him?”
“That’s right,” replied Levi.
“Hahaha…”
