Everything that Levi had said was nothing but the truth.
The Great Family of Frostford wouldn’t have dared to make a move even if they were only up against North Sky Lord, let alone Levi himself.
Why else have they been lying in ambush for so long?
Thierry was utterly taken aback by Levi’s words and his arrogance.
This is absurd!
We admit that you’re strong, but not to the extent of keeping the entire Great Family of Frostford at bay!
You may have the potential of becoming one of the Five Dragons of Erudia, but your abilities are still far beneath theirs.
If the Great Family of Frostford wants to kill you, it’d still be as easy as pie!
Thierry held firm to the belief that all prodigies merely had an underlying potential. Anything could still happen to them before they fully uncover their potential. Levi was no exception.
“Mister, you don’t seem to have realized your place, have you? Yes, you’re strong, but growth takes time. And there’s still a lot for you to grow before you can take on the Great Family of Frostford fearlessly!”
When Levi didn’t reply, Thierry added, “If you join us, I will dedicate all of Westford’s resources to train and protect you till you’ve reached your full potential!”
Thierry thought he had sufficiently proven his sincerity, but alas, what he failed to realize was that Levi was a lot more powerful than he had imagined.
Levi burst into laughter and replied, “I can join your great family, but on one condition…”
“What is it? Please let me know!”
“The Great Family of Westford will have to be at my beck and call. I want to be the boss!”
As soon as the words left Levi’s mouth, the crowd fell silent, astonishment on every face.
No one had thought Levi would be that ambitious to take over the entire Great Family of Westford.
Judy and Thierry were both rendered speechless as they stared at Levi in disbelief.
Thierry’s subordinates, on the other hand, could no longer take it lying down. “Don’t you dare go overboard!”
Soon, everyone else chimed in.
“Do you think we don’t have anyone to fight you? Our Great Family of Westford is full of skilled fighters who can easily take you on!”
“You only have the potential to be the Five Dragons of Erudia’s successor, but your abilities are nowhere near theirs!”
Levi chuckled, still unfazed by the people screaming at him. “Anyway, that’s the only condition I have. If you can grant me that, I’ll join you. If you can’t, then leave right now!”
Thierry felt his breath quicken as rage pulsed through his veins.
Eventually, he still chose to leave.
After all, it would be outrageous for him to relinquish his position in the Great Family of Westford. There was no way he would ever give it up.
Even though Levi was a rare talent, he was far too arrogant.
After leaving Levi’s manor, everyone was livid with rage.
“Who does the guy think he is? Does he not have respect for anyone? To think he even asked to lead our great family? Such impudence!”
As the others raged on, Judy turned to Thierry and asked, “Grandpa, what do you suggest we do next? Are we going to give up?”
After a pause, she added, “I believe other forces would find out about him soon. When that happens, it’d be even harder to get him on our side!”
Thierry stroked his beard as he pondered his granddaughter’s words. “What do you suggest?”
“The problem with him is that he’s too arrogant! He doesn’t even think the Four Great Families are his match! As long as we can prove that we have fighters stronger than him, he’ll know his place and join us.”
Thierry’s eyes lit up immediately as he exclaimed, “Good! I think that can work! If we let him know we have people stronger than him, he’d want to join us! Pass my orders on! I want George back in North Hampton immediately!”
“Yes, Grandpa!”
George Langston was none other than the top fighter in the entire Great Family of Westford.
He was also the only one whose abilities were closest to that of the Five Dragons of Erudia.
If he were to make his move, Levi would undoubtedly lose.
