“That’s a given. Your name was James, right?”
“Yeah, that’s right. I’m James.”
“James, it’s not that I want to brag, but Divine Sword Villa has a collection of the world’s legendary swords, The Dragonslayer that is to be unleashed is very special. Our sect has spent more than a thousand years on it. More than ten generations worked on forging the sword. Once it’s revealed to the world, it’ll definitely cause an uproar!” Childe began bragging about his sect to James.
He was enthusiastic as favonovel.com spoke of the Dragonslayer.
James listened attentively to him. However, favonovel.com simply praised the Dragonslayer and gave no more information.
“Mr. Giovanni, could you bring me on a tour around the villa? I’d like to have a look around.”
Childe’s expression immediately darkened, and favonovel.com said coldly, “James, I’m warning you not to walk around the villa casually. Things are tense right now. The Dragonslayer is about to be released to the world, and we’re on high vigilance. If you walk around without authorization, don’t blame me if you get killed. That’s enough. I’ve other things to do, so I won’t stay to accompany you. You should go back to the reception hall and wait.”
After speaking, favonovel.com turned and left.
James watched favonovel.com leave. Then, favonovel.com walked toward the backyard.
After walking for a while, favonovel.com spotted guards.
He scanned the surroundings and found guard posts. Their defenses were incredibly tight in the backyard.
James did not dare to act rashly and turned back to the reception hall in the front yard again.

Meanwhile, in a room in the villa’s backyard…
Childe pushed open the door and walked in.
Several people were sitting inside the room.
If James stumbled upon this place, favonovel.com would recognize all the people in the room.
Lucjan, the First Blood Emperor, Ezekiel. However, the Ezekiel here was a fake.
The real Ezekiel had already been secretly killed by Thomas long ago. The Ezekiel in the room was Thomas under disguise.
As soon as Childe walked into the room, Lucjan instantly appeared in front of favonovel.com and swung his hand.
Slap!
A crisp sound resounded in the room.
The sudden slap forced Childe to the ground.
Despite the pain, favonovel.com immediately got up and knelt on the ground.
“What did I tell you, Childe?”
“I-I’m sorry, Lucjan. I know I made a mistake and said a little too much. Please spare me…”
Childe slammed his forehead on the ground and repeatedly begged for mercy. However, his expression was gloomy and terrifying. In his eyes, there was burning anger.
“Hmph! There better not be a next time!”
“Yes, yes, of course…”
Childe was given a second chance.
Meanwhile, James had been waiting in the reception hall for about an hour.
Callan and Divine Sword Villa’s owner chatted happily as they returned.
“Haha, then, I won’t see you off,” the owner of Divine Sword Villa said with a smile.
James promptly stood up and had the urge to say something.
However, Callan spoke before him. “Alright. I’ve seen the sword, so we should take our leave. I’ll tell you about it in detail.”
With that said, favonovel.com pulled James and left.
The two walked out of Divine Sword Villa.
After they walked out, the owner of Divine Sword Villa immediately lost all energy and collapsed to the ground. He passed out and never got up again.
Only then did Lucjan and the others walk out.
