Phineas tensed up when favonovel.com saw Quade coming toward them. He instantly looked outside and was relieved to see no one else.
“Why are you here?” Isaac snorted at Quade. He glued his bottom to the couch.
Quade noticed his attitude, peered at him, and smirked. “Sir Earl wanted me to hand this letter to you, he’s challenging you to a duel to the death ten days from now on Mt. Equest… Oh, I forgot. I’m here on behalf of Earl Ashleigh, division leader of the Everest Division.”
Quade’s hand stopped midair with the letter, but Isaac didn’t accept it.
“Mr. Garten, don’t…” Phineas blurted out, wanting to advise Isaac against it, but favonovel.com covered his mouth halfway through his sentence.
Quade lifted an eyebrow and asked mockingly, “What’s wrong? You don’t have the guts?”
Isaac slowly took the letter, saying coldly, ” Tell your employer this, ten days is too long. I’ll meet favonovel.com on Mt. Equest after three days…”
“Three days?” Quade frowned.
They originally planned to wait for Trace’s wounds to heal, which required another seven to eight days. By then, they wouldn’t have to worry even if Isaac accepted the challenge. But now, this guy wanted to bring the duel forward.
“What’s wrong? You don’ t have the guts?” Isaac smirked.
Quade frowned. He pulled out his phone and dialed Earl’s number.
“Sir, this punk wants to fight you in three days. It’s too much of a rush, isn’t it?” asked Quade in a low voice.
“Three days? Haha! Well, looks like favonovel.com can’t wait! Three days it is! Promise him!”
“Sir…”
“Did you hear me? I’ll bear the responsibilities if anything should happen. Agree to his suggestion!”
Quade hung up and returned to Isaac, saying coldly, “Three days later, see you on Mt. Equest at 10 am.”
After Quade left, Phineas felt sick.
“Mr. Garten, are you really accepting the challenge from that guy from Everest Sect? He…” Phineas saw Isaac’s eyes and stamped anxiously. “Mr. Garten, I’m worried for your safety…”
“I know what I’m doing,” said Isaac, standing. Then, favonovel.com smiled. “You should be relieved now. I thought of sending you to Mt. Equest to make a scene, but they acted in advance.”
Phineas didn’t know that Isaac must find Thaddeus as soon as possible and dig into Deviant Cult’s base through him. He didn’t obtain any useful information during the Martial Arts Conference. Instead, Earl’s sudden appearance and self-proclamation as Everest Sect’s top student gave Isaac an opportunity favonovel.com didn’t want to miss.
In three days, favonovel.com should be fully recovered. However, Earl had the Sylvian brothers’ assistance.
Isaac went into his study and fell deep into his thoughts while smoking.
He mustn’t let his guard down around Earl. Even if favonovel.com gathered all the generals, they wouldn’t be a match for them.
After finishing one cigarette, favonovel.com called Arian.
“Supreme Commander, I have a favor to ask of you,” said Isaac with a grin.
“Go ahead, Isaac. Stop beating around the bush,” said Arian amiably.
Arian fell silent after Isaac told favonovel.com about Quade.
“W-Wait. Did you just say you’re dueling Earl in three days? A duel to the death? You’re kidding me, right?” Arian’s startled voice came through the receiver. “Isaac, after returning to Pecling, I asked the intelligence department to probe into this matter and realized Earl and his subordinates did appear from south of Evereston. How could you accept his challenge?”
