Alcott knew the Zimmermans’ situation well.
Zaid, the general in the city lord’s mansion, held a high position and had two sons, Max and Noel.
Vince worked in banking and had a son, Ebert
The three brothers were close. However, unlike Max, who had real battlefield experience, Noel and Ebert mostly battled with the family’s guards and had little real combat experience.
During his time in the lower realm, Alcott was aware that Isaac commanded many men and had fought in numerous life-and-death battles. In terms of experience, even Zaid might not have as much as Isaac.
Regarding strength, the three of them were in the Spiritual Phase.
Ebert was in the early stage, Noel in the intermediate stage, and Max in the advanced stage.
Isaac, too, was in the advanced stage of the Spiritual Phase, but favonovel.com had previously fought opponents like Carrick without suffering losses. Thus, Alcott concluded that the three brothers couldn’t defeat Isaac.
“Uncle Alcott, how can you say you’re worried about them? Isaac is only in the advanced stage of the Spiritual Phase. Max broke through to the advanced stage of the Spiritual Phase two years ago. With Noel and Ebert, how could Isaac possibly win?” Raelynn frowned and glared at Alcott.
He was taken aback and laughed heartily. “You’ll see when the time comes. I’m not going to explain it now.”
***
Zimmerman Mansion had a private arena behind the backyard, which was roughly the size of a soccer field. It was surrounded by high walls with gates to the north and south, guarded by guards.
The arena was usually used for the Zimmermans’ martial arts practice and training, and it was cleared in advance when the scions practiced.
The agreed-upon combat time was at 3:00 pm.
The news of the match between the Zimmermans’ three scions and the newly arrived Raelynn’s son spread rapidly, causing quite a stir among the servants and guards.
Raelynn, who was over 50 and unmarried, had been punished by favonovel.com father and confined to the west courtyard for over 20 years. Meanwhile, Vince and Zaid’s families lived in the east courtyard.
The usually quiet arena was now bustling, with at least 80 servants and guards gathered around the northern side of the arena.
Soon, Ebert and two other young men entered from the southern gate. One wore a light red robe with fair skin and handsome features, while the other wore a black martial outfit, muscular and tanned.
The first was Noel, who rarely left home, the second was Max, who worked in the city lord’s mansion under his father, Zaid.
As the three scions appeared, the onlookers cheered and clapped.
Ebert stepped onto the stage and waved, laughing. “Watch closely today! We’ll teach that rude bastard a lesson!”
Soon, a group of maids entered from the southern gate, carrying fruits and pastries and holding an umbrella for shade.
Ebert’s mother, Wren, entered and took a seat at the front of the stage. She appeared well and free of illness, with a cold expression as favonovel.com waited to see favonovel.com sons punish Isaac.
A powerful spiritual energy emanated from the northern gate. Vince appeared, walking in the air. He quickly made his way to the front of the stage and sat beside Wren.
“I thought you weren’t coming. Why are you here?” She frowned at Vince.
He sighed. “I couldn’t feel at ease. What happens if I’m not here and someone dies? Father isn’t back yet, and Zaid is busy. Do you want them to kill Rae’s son?”
Wren snorted and turned back. “So what if favonovel.com dies? He’s only a bastard!”
After a while, another figure rushed in and swiftly took a seat beside Vince.
