Chapter 1452

The others blatantly laughed at Thierry’s revelation.

“Thierry, since when did you become so timid?” they jeered. “How easily frightened you are by a nobody like Levi!”

“You’re so afraid to face him that you’ve concocted a delusion that Levi is the Crown King. Are you lying to us or lying to yourself?” Albus demanded.

“That’s right! The Crown King had fallen down Mount Drago. He couldn’t possibly survive that. Even if he does, what is his connection to Levi?” Lesale asked.

“I…” With his trump card viewed as a farce, Thierry had nothing left to say.

Despite the consequences it entailed, he had already let slip the secret truth about Levi’s identity, which was treated with derision.

Given that they had reacted to this piece of news with mockery, Thierry was not able to prove Levi’s innocence.

“It doesn’t matter if you are not in favor, Thierry. You’re outnumbered three to one. Westford has to conform!” Albus said triumphantly.

The rules are the rules.

“Don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’re picking a fight you have no chance of winning,” Theirry said with a sigh.

“I am still refusing to believe that he has the capacity to stand up against the wrath of the Four Great Families.” Albus and the others wore smug looks of superiority.

“Grandpa isn’t joking. You would do well to heed his advice and dispel this notion from your heads while you still can. Do not provoke Levi.” Judy took her grandfather’s side.

“No, we are going to claim our debt!” Several stubborn voices came.

It seems that their minds would not be changed.

“By the power of the Four Great Families, we hereby vow to capture Levi and put him on trial!” Albus thundered, his proclamation greeted by a deafening cheer.

Immediately upon his order, a group of elite assassins marched out.

At that moment, Zoey and Levi were at their villa accompanied by Jennie and her company.

“Zoey, let’s go out for a walk, shall we? Look at your companions. We are the most popular celebrities in Erudia! We have been acquainted with the creme de la creme of Frostford.”

“That’s right. The ones who are fortunate to earn our acquaintance are now leading lives of complete luxury. At this point, we are even more influential than you are!”

“It would do your business good to be seen out in public with us.”

It seems like these girls are here to show off their status, Zoey thought exasperatedly.

“What does it matter if Levi manages to recover? His reputation is ruined! All he is known for right now is a reckless man who almost lost everything.”

Suddenly, a dozen or so figures barged in and interrupted their conversation.

George was the first one to notice the intruders.

“Who are you?” he demanded. “How dare you barge in here unannounced!”

“Levi, get out here!” several of the intruders shouted.

Levi and North Sky Lord emerged after several moments.

Naturally, they were well informed about the goings-on of the Four Great Families, and the fact that Levi had been framed by the Avengers.

My name must be cleared, Levi thought grimly as he prepared himself for the inevitable confrontation.

“Who are you?” Levi asked, breaking the silence.

“We have come on behalf of Albus Whittaker of the Great Family of Frostford!” shouted their leader. “Come with us quietly and perhaps we could avoid a scene.”

“After you.” Levi gestured toward the door politely.

“Look at that! Even if Levi has completely recovered, he is just a shadow of his former self. What a coward to come with us so meekly!”

“Does he even have any dignity left? He is a traitor to his own country! I suspect that he had exchanged the drug on the condition that he be cured!”

“You have a point. How else would Levi be able to recover? He definitely would have leveraged on trading away the drug!”

Albus’s men stared at Levi with disdain, feeling on a completely different moral ground than Levi was on.

“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to Master,” George said comfortingly.
