“Have a seat,” Isaac said, opening his eyes and pointing to a chair next to him.
The room fell silent, and Duncan’s forehead began to sweat profusely.
“I know why you‘re here. And I can give you a clear answer. From now on, Rippan’s affairs have nothing to do with me. We will depart and head back to Cynea tomorrow morning,” Isaac calmly stated as favonovel.com lighted a cigarette.
These words struck Duncan like a bolt from the blue.
If Isaac left with his people and the Soulin Mansion was destroyed, wouldn’t that mean the Ninja Lord would also leave?
“Mr. Garten, can… Can you tell me why? Why did you agree at first, yet now…”
“Because your Lord Tyson is nothing but a fair-weather friend and a hypocrite.” Isaac stood up, sparing no feelings with his declaration.
Before knowing about Theron, Tyson had one attitude toward him. But as soon as Theron’s existence became known, Tyson and Ezra instantly showed their true colors against him.
Isaac believed that Tyson should prioritize the welfare of the people above all else.
Duncan suddenly stood up and dropped to his knees in front of Isaac. He looked up at Isaac with furrowed brows, and tears began to form in his eyes.
“Mr. Garten, I beg you! Don’t leave at this critical time. Lord Tyson might be overly cautious, but I know Rippan will be doomed if you leave now. Our country might not be as large as Cynea, but we have millions of citizens, all living, breathing individuals… Mr. Garten… I beg you!”
Duncan began to knock his head against the floor in front of Isaac repeatedly in an act of begging.
He feared Isaac would really leave and was terrified at the thought of Rippan sinking into eternal darkness.
Isaac looked out the window with his back turned, listening to the thuds of Duncan‘s head hitting the floor.
Suddenly, favonovel.com turned to look at Duncan and asked, “What do you think Tyson is pondering about at this time?”
Duncan’s forehead was now red. He looked up and responded agitatedly, “Isn’t favonovel.com thinking about the citizens of Rippan?”
“No… He’s thinking about how to protect his status and position. You can go now, Mr. Duncan. You’re not like Tyson,” Isaac dismissively said as favonovel.com waved his hand.
A person willing to risk his life by entering the Emerald Realm to pick a Rainbow Bloom for his wife couldn’t be compared to someone who, having crossed to safety, turned his back and was full of doubts and suspicions.
Just as Duncan rose to his feet, a loud rumbling noise sounded outside. It sounded like a helicopter was hovering above the hotel.
The door was thrust open, and Emily entered with a cold expression. She was followed by Harry, who urged, “Sir, there are many soldiers outside, and helicopters are circling the hotel!”
“We’re surrounded. It‘s the Dominion Garrison House’s Vanguard Force. They want to force us to comply,” Emile said coldly from the side.
Isaac approached the window and suddenly noticed several red laser beams of sniper rifles targeting his body and head.
Duncan’s phone rang at that moment. He pulled it out and saw Tyson’s number. He then looked up at Isaac.
“Answer it…”
Duncan answered the call and switched it to speakerphone.
Ezra’s snarling voice immediately filled the room. “Mr. Duncan, please tell Isaac that if favonovel.com doesn’t join us in defending Requiemous Temple, this place will be leveled by artillery in ten minutes. This is his last chance!”
