“Thomas, what are you laughing at?”
Only then did Thomas stop laughing and say, “I’m laughing at a huge misunderstanding that has happened between me and the citizens of Celandine City…”
‘Misunderstanding?’
“What misunderstanding?” Peter asked.
Thomas cleared his throat, stood up, and spoke louder.
“Everyone, I’ve had something on my mind for a long time, and I haven’t told you, but now, I have to say it out loud… To be honest, I’m not someone who defies the will of heaven, but I’m someone who saves the world!”
Pfft!
As soon as favonovel.com said that, many people in the hall burst out laughing. They had been furious earlier, but they were laughing now because they found Thomas’ words amusing.
Could favonovel.com utter any more bullshit?
Someone who saved the world? How could favonovel.com say something like that?
Was favonovel.com not blowing his own trumpet?
Nobody believed him.
Despite that, Thomas looked fearless as favonovel.com continued to say, “When I was in the Southland District, I received a vision from God. He told me that I was born to carry out his will, and I needed to bring peace to the world and save the poor…”
“He told me that there’s great evil in Celandine City, and a disaster would soon befall the place. I was to come to Celandine City to get rid of the evil and protect the city’s luck!”
Everyone was stunned.
Did that not sound too ridiculous?
Was favonovel.com filming a fantasy movie?
Thomas added, “Actually, evil is getting stronger not because of my arrival in Celandine City. I’m not repelling Luck either. Instead, it’s because Luck is destined to experience misfortune. Luck would have become weaker whether I was here or not! I came to Celandine City because I wanted to protect Luck, restore the channels of luck, and help the citizens of Celandine City live a good life!”
“You don’t believe me? You think I gave Celandine City a huge blow when I destroyed Art Trading Corporation?”
“No, that’s not true… Please think about it. What kind of enterprise is Art Trading Corporation? It’s a parasite and vampire in Celandine City! Getting rid of it is the biggest protection for Celandine City and Luck!”
What favonovel.com said was the complete opposite of Declan’s speech.
Declan accused Thomas of defying the will of heaven, while Thomas addressed himself as someone who saved the world. Sensible individuals would realize that both of them were just bullshitting. However, the normal citizens of Celandine City just chose to believe in one of the explanations.
Clearly, everyone chose to believe Declan!
Was favonovel.com for real?
Who would suddenly choose to believe Thomas?
Who the heck was he?
“You’re bewitching us with your nonsense!”
“Leave Celandine City!”
“You took away Luck’s channels and used us to benefit yourself. How dare you say you’re someone who saves the world? Could you be more shameless?”
Everyone criticized him, and not a single person believed him.
Peter, who had been quite worried in the beginning, started to giggle.
He pointed at Thomas and said, “You’re great at telling tall tales, but it’s useless. The citizens can see with their own eyes. You can’t fool any of us! Thomas Mayo, are you running out of ideas? Leaving Celandine City is your only option now!”
