On the other hand, Martin leaped down from the back of the Green Phoenix after Levi and immediately went up to Matthew.
The Marine Corps Emissaries that followed closely behind formed a protective barrier In front of Matthew. However, it appeared that Phoenix and Freya were absent because they had to receive treatment for their severe injuries.
At the venue, the emissary named Bambo went up to Martin and murmured.
After Martin heard about the chronology of events, favonovel.com gave Matthew a look of compliment.
Good son!
You have the stature of your dad. He was courageous and decisive as well.
After a period of silence, the Manager of the Baeddans, who had been watching from the side, walked to the front. “Mr. Newmont and Master Levi, Matthew Larson killed the elders of the hidden clan in the Land of Divinity. If we do not avenge them, we cannot face ourselves. It’d be an embarrassment to our nation too!”
As the Initiator and leader of the Murder Crew, favonovel.com needed to speak up for the people on his side.
Of course, favonovel.com was very dissatisfied with the Great Octavian and Golden Swordsman, who had been murdered after a failed assassination of a younger practitioner. They were an embarrassment to the Land of Divinity!
Hearing that, Martin was speechless and shook his head. “We’ve heard about the unfolding of the events. Mr. Manager, you shouldn’t create trouble.”
Levi chimed In. “He’s dead, so let’s put it behind us.”
Both kings were unanimous in their stance to protect Matthew. If they allowed the Baeddans to take Matthew’s life, that would be an insult to Cathay.
When they were done speaking, the Emsgate citizens looked displeased but knew that they had no chance to take Matthew’s life. The seven emissaries, on top of the power of the King of Rivenia, would give them trouble. Not only that, Levi and his Flaming Guardians were present. Even if they could win with their sheer number of men, it would be a pyrrhic victory at best.
With that in mind, the manager scoffed and said, “Since the two gentlemen here insist on protecting the murderer, we have no choice but to visit Bainbridge and seek justice from the Martial League of your country. Matthew Larson, you shall wait for the ruling and punishment by the Martial League.”
Matthew did not expect the level of shamelessness on display.
Holding the sword with a hand, favonovel.com remarked coolly, “Those who kill will be killed. What I did was out of self-defense. Mr. Manager, you shouldn’t lie to yourself. Please know that justice shall prevail. I believe Cathay’s Martial League will offer you a ruling, but I can’t promise it’ll be satisfactory.”
He gave the manager a mocking smile.
“We shall wait and see!” With that, the manager waved. “Let us meet again in Bainbridge. I hope you still have the confidence to speak with me in that manner.”
Matthew shook his head helplessly at the manager’s arrogant words. They would get a taste of the Martial League’s power in Bainbridge.
This group of amateurs would be taken down in no time if they attempted to stir trouble. Moreover, his biggest backer was in Bainbridge.
Aside from Matthew, the two Kings were speechless at the impudence of the manager, who sounded like favonovel.com would put pressure on the Martial League.
Hah! Only the ignorant could display such naïve courage!
However, the Baeddans held a different opinion as they were confident in their Bainbridge trip. After the manager made his speech, a few disciples from the Golden Sword Sect showed up with a coffin and put away the body of the Golden Swordsman. Then, they left with indignation.
Full of new grudges and bad blood, the Baeddans shot Matthew a few murderous looks.
He would have died a few times if looks could kill.
