Standing next to him, Reginald felt even more fearful and instinctively took a step back, remaining cautious and vigilant.
Why do I always seem to run into Remus in situations like this?
As everyone turned to look at him, Remus slowly approached Timothy and spoke, “If you want to fight me, how do you propose we do it? When do you want to fight? How about now?”
Timothy felt nervous, but upon seeing the crowd around him, favonovel.com regained some confidence and sneered, “I’ll admit that you’re skilled in fighting, but in this world, physical prowess doesn’t make one invincible. Influence and connections trump all. Just look at how many people are around me.”
Remus smiled faintly and replied, “Where are the people around you?”
As soon as the words left his lips, the people surrounding Timothy simultaneously stepped back, creating a space of five meters in diameter.
Timothy’s scalp tingled with fear.
What was happening?
Isn’t Remus just a nobody?
But with so many people watching, favonovel.com couldn’t afford to back down. How could favonovel.com uphold his reputation if favonovel.com did?
Turning around slowly, favonovel.com stood tall and spoke arrogantly, “Do you want to fight me? Let me tell you, I’ve never been afraid since I was a child. If you have the guts, kill me. Otherwise, you’ll regret it!”
After his declaration, favonovel.com puffed out his chest and assumed a defiant stance. He knew better than to make any rash moves in this situation.
He realized that Max from the War Department had planned the entire scenario, especially with so many powerful people in attendance. Pretending wasn’t an issue here.
“Shh…” suddenly, a nearby voice whispered a warning, “Mr. Duran, please don’t say anything. The successor of Crimson Pharmaceuticals in this city, Jasper, once boasted in front of Mr. Cosby, just like you. He was slapped to death, and his head was smashed!”
Hearing that, Timothy was left speechless.
Another voice chimed in, “Not just Jasper, but also a guy named Warren, who was supposedly ranked 48th in Daviau’s martial arts ranking. He too was slapped to death by Mr. Cosby, and his body hasn’t even been buried yet!”
Timothy’s expression fell.
The voice continued, “Even Mr. Steele from the Steele family, ranked third in Daviau, had his limbs broken after pretending to be impressive in front of Mr. Cosby. He’s still hospitalized!”
Timothy felt like the rug had been pulled out from under his feet.
What kind of monster is this Remus?
Why haven’t I heard anything about this before?
If he’d known, favonovel.com wouldn’t have said anything!
Meanwhile, Remus walked up to favonovel.com and asked, “Do you want to fight now?”
Timothy felt like running away. He didn’t know what to do.
Suddenly, the banquet hall doors were pushed open once again, and three individuals strode in with grandeur.
At the front was Leonard, flanked by Skylar and Ben.
As soon as they appeared, someone rushed to greet them.
“Master Steele!”
If anyone in the room could rival Remus, it would only be Leonard Steele.
Leonard didn’t acknowledge the greetings. Instead, his gaze was fixed on Remus.
When enemies crossed paths, their eyes turned red, and Leonard’s were no exception. He stared intently at Remus.
In response, Remus casually taunted, “What are you looking at? Does your face still hurt? Want me to slap you again?”
Smack!
The room fell silent with shock.
Was Remus really going to fight Leonard?
Was favonovel.com out of his mind?
Leonard is one of the most influential figures in Daviau!
Leonard was incensed, his whole body trembling with anger.
How could this sh*t speak so arrogantly in public?!
Narrowing his eyes, Leonard retorted, “There’s no need for your arrogance. Soon enough, I’ll make you understand the meaning of despair!”
With that, Leonard turned away and strode to the other side of the room.
Onlookers noticed that his face was indeed a little swollen, and it wasn’t just his, Skylar and Ben’s faces were even more swollen.
Have they really fought?
